Chapter 66: 067 Ripening the Innate Gourd Early (Votes for the month! Asking for subscriptions! Bookmark requests!)
Behind Heavenly Master Mansion, Qin Hao stood in front of the vegetable garden he had set up earlier.
Now, he was slightly surprised.
Because he had thought that, even with the spiritual energy garden rewarded by the system, it would be impossible to grow vegetables in just a few days.
But now that he had come here, Qin Hao suddenly realized that he had been thinking too small, his perspective too limited!
At this moment, the vegetable garden was full of lush vegetation.
Eggplants, tomatoes, bok choy, cucumbers, winter melon, pumpkins, green peppers, scallions, celery, and so on.
...
Vegetable Garden: Plant whatever vegetables you want, if they don’t grow, you can count it as my loss!
In just a few days’ time, all the vegetables in the garden had matured.
Qin Hao sent a message to the Black Bear Demon, who was still sweeping in the Heavenly Master Mansion.
He asked the Black Bear Demon to bring a basket over and pick all the vegetables in the garden.
The Black Bear Demon was originally sweeping inside the Heavenly Master Mansion, had only swept half of it when the Heavenly Master asked it to fetch a basket and pick vegetables.
The Black Bear Demon was completely numb.
Black Bear Demon’s thoughts: “What the f*ck, this isn’t what you said before I came up the mountain!”
The Black Bear Demon still remembered that beast tide, when the Heavenly Master had invited it to follow him, with all sorts of conditions that were very tempting to bears.
Coming to the mountain would mean the protection of Heavenly Master Mansion, cultivating with the Heavenly Master, and even receiving Cultivation Techniques and combat skills as gifts.
Originally, the Black Bear Demon had been lured up the mountain with the idea of cultivating to become an immortal.
Only after arriving did it find out that it had been duped.
From the first day on the mountain, it started janitorial work.
And now, it was even asked to pick vegetables.
It, the dignified centennial great demon, a Qi Refining Eighth Layer Black Bear powerhouse!
Even in a primeval forest, it would be a rare and powerful being.
You want me to do this?
Indeed, men are always like this—they always sweet-talk you until they get what they want, and once they do, they don’t cherish you!
The Black Bear Demon was somewhat resentful.
Qin Hao could tell that the Black Bear Demon was somewhat reluctant.
Indeed, it was his fault; after the Black Bear Demon had come to the mountain, Qin Hao had been constantly busy.
So busy that he had neglected this fellow, resulting in the Black Bear Demon always doing janitorial work.
Qin Hao thought to himself that he would get a set of Cultivation Methods and several martial skills for Comrade Black Bear from the Incense Value Mall later.
He couldn’t chill the heart of his employee!
…
The Black Bear Demon was picking vegetables in the garden.
Qin Hao walked to a corner.
There, a golden gourd vine was slowly absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy to grow.
This gourd vine was the result of planting the Innate Gourd Seeds awarded by the system after completing a task.
However, the vine had not started to bear gourds yet.
Qin Hao checked the attribute panel of the gourd vine.
Name: Innate Gourd Vine
Status: Growth Period (No fruit yet)
Prompt: Current gourd vine lacks nutrients, needs to consume Incense Value to bear fruit officially, feed now?
…
Looking at the attribute panel of the gourd vine.
No wonder it grew so long without bearing any gourds.
It turns out the precondition to bear fruit is to consume Incense Value.
In other words, this gourd vine needs Incense Value to feed it.
However, after a careful investigation, Qin Hao also discovered.
Although the gourd vine requires Incense Value to nurture it,
Once it successfully bears fruit, and the gourd matures,
He would not lose out because an Innate Gourd Vine with just one gourd would start as a True Martial Level Supreme Treasure!
With a bit more cultivation, upgrading it to the Immortal Spirit Level wouldn’t be too much of a problem.
So it can be said that even using Incense Value to expedite maturity, Qin Hao would not be at a loss.
With this in mind, he looked at his current Incense Value.
Apart from the Incense Values awarded by completing system tasks,
Plus the Incense Value brought by pilgrims who came to burn incense on Qingyun Mountain every day.
Now, Qin Hao’s total Incense Value was about three hundred thousand!
To expedite the maturity of a gourd, it was definitely more than enough.
Qin Hao confidently opened the expedite maturity panel of the Innate Gourd Vine.
“Ding! Do you wish to use Incense Value to expedite maturity? Each expedite will cost 50,000 Incense Value!”
Damn!
That’s expensive!
Qin Hao looked at the required Incense Value for expedited maturity.
He was stunned.
He thought a few thousand, or ten thousand Incense Value could solve the problem, but now you’re telling me, one expedite costs fifty thousand Incense Value?
What the hell!
Qin Hao originally thought that the thirty-something thousand Incense Value he saw on his personal panel were a lot.
He felt he was now a big player in terms of Incense Value.
But after seeing the expedite maturity conditions for the Innate Gourd Vine.
Qin Hao awoke to the fact.
It turns out he was still poor.
Even if he invested all of the three hundred thousand Incense Value, it would only be enough for expediting the maturity of the gourd vine six or seven times.
However, consider a True Martial Level Divine Weapon!
Qin Hao gritted his teeth.
Forget it!
Incense Value can be earned again.
Comparatively, a True Martial Level Divine Weapon was more important.
Qin Hao then tentatively clicked to expedite maturity.
“Ding! Congratulations host for expending 50,000 Incense Value and successfully expediting the maturity of the gourd vine!”
“Ding! Congratulations host for expending Incense Value, Innate Gourd Vine has successfully entered fruiting stage, host receives a [Yellow Gourd]!”
Accompanied by the system prompt sound, then Qin Hao saw,
Indeed, a gourd the size of a bean was formed on that Innate Gourd Vine in front of him.
The gourd had a yellow skin.
Now still in its youthful stage, it already contained an extremely rich concentration of Spiritual Power and Sword Qi.
It seems that this gourd’s future growth direction is related to the sword.
However, seeing that he spent 50,000 Incense Value to only produce such a small gourd,
Qin Hao felt somewhat that this expediture was a bit of a scheme.
For the life of him, how much Incense Value could he get for completing one mission?
Fifty thousand for one time, it only grew this big, how much Incense Value will have to be invested until it fully matures?
Qin Hao tentatively clicked to expedite maturity once more.
“Ding! Congratulations host for expending 50,000 Incense Value and successfully expediting the maturity of the gourd vine!”
After another expedite, the Yellow Gourd on the gourd vine absorbed another fifty thousand Incense Value.
Sure enough, it had grown a bit more.
But it was not fully grown yet.
The size of the gourd had only grown from bean-sized to about the size of a quail egg.
At this rate of expedited growth,
Qin Hao would need to spend at least one million Incense Value to mature a complete and mature gourd.
No choice then, take it slow.
Thinking this, Qin Hao spent the rest of his two hundred thousand Incense Value on expediting maturity,
Leaving only forty thousand Incense Value for emergencies.
After four more expedited growths, the little Yellow Gourd had grown a bit bigger again.
It had now reached the size of a duck’s egg.
Now, Qin Hao didn’t have much Incense Value left on his hands.
He decided not to continue expediting maturity.
The expediting of the maturity of the gourd should be slow and steady, little by little.
He left the garden.
At this moment, the Black Bear Demon had almost finished picking all the mature vegetables in the small garden.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
Qin Hao had the Black Bear Demon water the vegetables again.
As for himself, he began to consider where would be the most appropriate place to put the new three-acre spirit soil vegetable garden rewarded by the system.
