“Orirock?”

Mu Wanqiu appeared perplexed, and she replied, “We have an agreement, Mister Jiang, that I would reward you with three times the money you would get from a Feral corpse of the same tier. I could even pay you with floral spirits or other treasures of the same level... but I can’t afford Orirocks!”

Jiang He’s eyes twitched.

It seems that Mu Wanqiu was definitely aware of the Orirocks and it was an expensive item, or she wouldn’t say such a thing.

So, he promptly smiled. “Miss Mu, you’ve misunderstood me. I’m just asking out of curiosity.”

“As for the reward, floral spirit of the same tier or treasures would do. I don’t want money.”

Mu Wanqiu only breathed a sigh of relief then.

She was very afraid of Jiang He raising his price.

Returning to her vehicle, she took out a tablet computer, her fingers dancing as she logged in to a website.

“This is the intranet of the Superpower Research Department, and in it are the data of all known and studied floral spirits or rare treasures. You could have a look.”

“Oh?”

Jiang He’s eyes sparkled at that.

He basically knew nothing about those things, and this was a good chance for him to study up. Since the Superpower Research Department was an authority on those subjects, they would possess more information than even the Martial Arts Department (MAD).

Taking the tablet computer, Jiang He eyes saw that there were two panels: floral spirits, and novelties.

He clicked on floral spirits. The first page was an eye-catching HD photo, and beneath were various species of plants.

Amongst them was an ear of huge, thick corn...

As Jiang He turned to Mu Wanqiu in surprise, she blushed and said, “Yes, that’s the corn you sold me. We at the Superpower Research Department studied it and discovered that it had evolved to one point eight times to a typical ear of corn. The various nutrients and essences contained inside were even more outrageous—it exceeds what usual corn would contain by more than fifteen times.”

Pausing, she then added, “Actually, the corn does not reach the standards of a floral spirit, since when it comes to improving cultivation, spirit, longevity or providing even a chance of promoting floral spirits, the corn is far lacking compared to floral spirits. Still, one of the female professors in our department insists on categorizing it as a floral spirit...”

Jiang He was most amused.

The corns could be considered the most useless crops he had produced, bar none, although it indirectly blessed a number of women.

“That female professor must be very rich,” he could not resist saying then.

“How’d you know?”

Mu Wanqiu was rather surprised, and said, “She is definitely quite something. A legend even in the martial arts scene and one of the few female grandmasters, she also holds authority in science and research, specifically the development of blended qi pellets.

That impressive?

Jiang He was taken aback, but soon smiled. “Actually, I wasn’t thinking that far. I just thought that she must be quite flat at first...”

“Huh?”

Mu Wanqiu exclaimed after doing a double take. She always felt Jiang He was mocking her indirectly, which was why she seethed, “Bleh, you thug!”

Meanwhile, Jiang He seriously studied the other floral spirits.

As a matter of fact, those floral spirits were plants that mutated and hence developing certain special effects, even birthing sentience.

According to the Superpower Research Department’s categorization, only rank-seven plants could develop sentience, and anything below that tier would not count.

Still, floral spirits that did not count were quite expensive too.

A point in case was the corns Jiang He sold. After buying them off his hands, Mu Wanqiu resold them at a million dollars each, which was basically daylight robbery.

After all, there were too many rich flat women!

Several million was merely pocket change for them.

And who would not only be too happy to pay several million for those curves and cleavage?

Aside from the corns, the weakest floral spirits actually cost five million each. Jiang He studied it and realized that it was a sunflower, and it cost five million... per flower.

And its effect was improving spirit.

Nonetheless, Jiang He was quite interested.

Naturally, there were many other floral spirits that had better effects than the sunflower, but Jiang He was quite interested in that one.

He then turned towards the novelties.

Everything seemed to be included there, including the blood essence of rank-nine Ferals and fragments of ancient G.o.d warriors.

At the same time, Mu Wanqiu explained beside him, “There are not many known species of floral spirits at the moment, and only sixty-seven of them were determined to have specific attributes. Novelties were even rarer, because those things only form under specific unique environments—Orirocks being one such example. At the moment, no Orirock vein had been found across the globe, aside from several heritage sites and Secret Realms.”

“Heritage sites? Secret Realms?”

Jiang He was confused, and asked, “I have heard Duan Tianhe mention about heritage sites before, which was quite common in the olden days of martial arts. After some powerful martial arts die, or the cavern residences they left behind would become a ruin that brings good fortune for their successors. The rapid development of elites in the Hua Nation is actually connected to the heritage sites that were recently discovered too... but what are Secret Realms?”

Such matters were actually secret.

However, Mu Wanqiu did not come from your usual family, which was why he explained at once, “I heard Grandfather mention it, and so-called Secret Realms are, in fact, microworlds that certain elites opened.”

“...”

Jiang He was shocked.

What was that?

Microworlds?

And opened by human means...

“This isn’t in the script. I thought that this was a world of martial arts, but somehow extraterrestrial races like the Sky Demons actually popped up, and now there are elites who open microworlds...”

At first, Jiang He was just a little elated when his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. He thought that except elites above rank-nine, no one could kill him with his current abilities.

And yet, a tremendous pressure bore down on him, ignited like oil to a flame!

Sky Demons, extraterrestrials, ancient elites, heritage sites, Secret Realms, microworlds...

This has risen to the level of scientific fantasy, and Jiang He even felt that an even older heritage site or a divine one would suddenly pop up.

By then, he would not be surprised.

After musing to himself for a while, Jiang He said, “For the reward for the Ferals, I’ll take these sunflower seeds that improve spirit. How many of do you have in store?”

“I’ll take all your stock, and pay with cash if I’m short or exchange with other items.”

“Those sunflower seeds?”

Mu Wanqiu advised, “Those are only useful for rank-six pinnacle martial artists who are trying to make a rush for rank-seven, since it improves spirit and has a chance of improving cultivation as well. You are already rank-seven, and it wouldn’t develop your spirit by much...”

Rising from rank-six to rank-seven?

Spirit?

Jiang He’s gaze twitched. He suddenly realized why he faced no difficulty in ascension, and why he did not run into the rumored obstacles.

The most important development from rank-six to rank-seven was spirit. Having eaten cuc.u.mbers and walnuts every day to nourish his brain and revitalize his spirit, he had long since reached stalwartness in spirit.

Still, no one would fuss over having a strong spirit.

So, if one sunflower seed could increase spirit by a fraction, what about a hundred, a thousand or even ten thousand?

Well, it was a sunflower seed...

He could buy and replant it, and munch on it when he has free time. Would he need to worry that his spirit would not improve?

And it was just five million dollars per seed. How was that expensive?

“Money is like clouds and dung to me...”

Still, as something else crossed Jiang He’s mind, he was a little troubled.

“Orirock... Orirock...”

“I wonder if those stuff could be bought... They are only found in heritage sites and Secret Realms, but where am I supposed to find those?”
