Chapter 380: Spirit Rice, an epoch-making crop

Ye Zan has conducted genetic research on a large number of herbs, and in fact, he has gained a lot. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 But these gains, if you want to solve the urgent needs of the Yuqing Sect, they are still far from enough.

Although, Ye Zan also has a way to greatly shorten the growth cycle of herbs, and that is to use the time acceleration of the jade ball space. However, the cost of doing so is too great, which is equivalent to making the cost of a herb directly soar hundreds or thousands of times. If there is a small supply, Ye Zan can still bear it if he grits his teeth, but the needs of the Jade Qing Sect can be met by dozens or hundreds of herbs.

However, in his research on the herb's genes, Ye Zan discovered a gene fragment that converts inert Reiki into an active Reiki that can be used by humans. This is not unusual, just as plants can absorb nutrients from the soil and convert them into nutrients that can be absorbed by animals.

It can be said that all herbs, no matter what kind of herbs, possess such genetic fragments and such the ability to transform inert aura. It's just that this ability is also strong and weak, and the more precious and rare herbs are, the weaker this ability is, the more common and ordinary herbs are, the stronger this ability is.

This, however, is easy to understand, precious and rare herbs, in addition to extraordinary effects, are often quite demanding on the growing environment. However, those common herbs tend to have good adaptability to the growing environment. This ability to transform the inert aura is undoubtedly also a manifestation of the ability to adapt.

If so, wouldn't it mean that those weeds that can be found everywhere on the roadside will have a more powerful ability to transform inert aura? However, after Ye Zan picked several kinds of weeds and studied them, he did not find that weeds had such abilities. After all, the growth of those herbs, even the most ordinary herbs, requires a certain amount of spiritual energy to nourish, while weeds are just simple savage growth.

Ye Zan had no choice but to turn his attention back to the herbs, and through a large amount of data comparison, he selected several herbs with the strongest ability to transform inert aura. Later, after an in-depth study of the genes of these herbs, the relevant gene fragments were intercepted.

So, what is the use of having such a gene fragment?

Could it be that by enhancing this ability of herbs, it is possible to shorten the growth cycle of herbs?

That's obviously impossible!

The growth of herbs does not rely solely on aura, not to mention the synthesis and transformation of various so-called "medicinal power" nutrients.

So, what is the use of this genetic fragment of transforming inert aura, or rather, this ability, for Ye Zan?

At first, Ye Zan really couldn't think of any use.

However, after combining the current problems faced by the Yuqing Sect, Ye Zan suddenly had an idea, why did he have to think about planting herbs for alchemy?

You must know that the problem of Yuqing Sect now is that not all the herbs of the pill are lacking. The pills that consume the most are just the pills that assist in cultivation in various realms, such as the Qi Nourishing Pill of the Qi Refining Realm, the Ning Yuan Pill of the Foundation Building Realm, and there may be a gap in the Yunling Pill of the Jindan Realm in the future. To put it bluntly, in normal cultivation, cultivators cannot absorb enough active aura from the outside world, so they need to use pills to fill this shortcoming.

Then, if there is a way to let the disciples of the Yuqing Sect not have a lack of spiritual energy in the process of cultivation, then naturally there is no need for the assistance of those pills.

For example, Ye Zan once built a quiet room with an inert aura activation device for Wu Changsheng and others, which made them much less dependent on the elixir.

However, the operation of the activation device is not without a price, and it is still unrealistic to want to use it in large quantities. Moreover, Ye Zan didn't want the inert aura activation device to be exposed, which would inevitably cause trouble for himself and the Yuqing Sect.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Ye Zan never thought of using this inert aura activation device to solve the current problem of the Yuqing Sect.

However, this is not the only way to replenish the aura, there is also the most common and most neglected method, that is, to eat the aura. For example, some herbal spirit fruits can be eaten directly, and they can also supplement a certain amount of aura, but that is more wasteful. Also, even if you eat the meat of demon beasts, you can also get a certain amount of aura from it, but it is more expensive.

However, if you eat the herb spirit fruit directly, you will also encounter the problem of the growth cycle of the herb. And the meat of the demon beast, in fact, is the same as the problem of herbs, the demon beast is not a fat pig that is slaughtered in a few months, and there will also be a limit to the growth cycle.

"Then, I need to find something that has no other superfluous effects, just can simply replenish the aura, the key is to have a short growth cycle!" Ye Zan sat on the chair, looked at the display screen in front of him, and muttered to himself.

So, in today's Shenhua Realm, is there such a thing?

It seems that there is none.

Let's create it!

Now that you know what you need, you can make something that meets your requirements according to your own requirements! Ye Zan stood up, came to the row of machines with flashing lights, and started the experiment again.

This time, Ye Zan's goal was no longer to shorten the growth cycle of those herbs, so the first choice was a plant with a short growth cycle, a roadside weed. Wild grass does not have the ability to transform inert aura, so the gene fragment in the herb is added to the gene of wild grass.

Of course, the experiment was not so easy to succeed, in order to find plants that could truly fuse the inert Reiki conversion genes. Ye Zan tried a large number of various species of weeds, and after finally finding a plant that met the requirements, he found that a new problem arose, that is, the storage of the converted active aura.

Genetically modifying plants is not so easy, even with mature transgenic technology. Rejection collapses, self-healing, devouring each other, all kinds of problems appear, and when these problems are solved, new problems will appear in the growth process of the plant. Fortunately, in this jade ball space, Ye Zan can already speed up the local entry time, and also save the waiting time for cultivation, and can quickly see the results.

After more than ten days of experiments, Ye Zan finally cultivated several plants that fused with the inert Reiki conversion gene, and the growth cycle only took three to six months. However, looking at the tufts of grass in the cultivation tank, Ye Zan didn't have much smile on his face. He found himself overlooking the problem of how to get people to eat the grass. And because of the short growth cycle, there is not a lot of aura in each grass, so it still needs to be eaten in large quantities to achieve an effect close to that of the elixir.

People are not cattle and sheep, these fresh grasses may be delicious in the eyes of cattle and sheep, but in the eyes of people, they are just a handful of grass.

"Hey, I made a mistake, I thought about so many problems, but I forgot about them. Ye Zan patted his head helplessly. But fortunately, after the previous experiments and the accumulation of experience in solving those problems, it is not very difficult to replace a few more plants.

As for what kind of plants to replace, Ye Zan has already thought of it, since it is considered to be eaten, it is better to change it to things that people usually eat, such as grains.

The first is rice. After a series of genetic modifications, a new type of rice appeared in Yetzan's laboratory, and after growing to maturity under the acceleration of time, the plants of this rice were taller and thicker than normal, and the ears of rice were also expanded several times. But more importantly, this kind of rice exudes a faint aura fluctuation, which is incomparable to those weeds before, and it is obvious that its aura content is already quite high.

Ye Zan gently pinched a few rice grains from the heavy ears of rice, and the size of the rice grains was also very large, nearly ten times larger than normal rice grains. Peeling off the outer husk, a grain of rice that was crystal oily and seemed to be carved from white jade was revealed, exuding a faint and fresh rice fragrance. He threw the rice directly into his mouth, and with a slight close of his teeth, he crushed the rice, and a wisp of aura and the fragrance of rice instantly made up for it in his mouth.

Ye Zan nodded slightly, the aura of this rice is good, if it is really used as a daily meal, three meals a day can also supplement a lot of aura. However, this is not perfect, because this thing is actually bitter, and obviously it still does not meet the requirements in terms of taste.

Of course, the problem of taste can be easily solved, and even if it can't be solved, what is it to suffer a little for the sake of cultivation? Fortunately, after a series of adjustments, Ye Zan finally made the taste of rice more acceptable, and did not turn three meals a day into three meals a day medicine.

Then, Ye Zan began to breed in the jade ball space, after all, the demand for three meals a day is very large, and it is really necessary to plant a large area in the future.

In fact, there is another problem with this kind of spiritual rice, which is genetic degradation. In other words, after two or three generations of planting, the spiritual rice will lose the ability to transform the inert aura and become ordinary rice again. However, Ye Zan did not intend to solve this problem, although it was not very difficult to solve it, but why should he solve it?

Ye Zan could already imagine what a huge sensation this spiritual rice would cause when it appeared in the Shenhua Domain Realm. When the time comes, the various sects will definitely try their best to get the seeds of this kind of spiritual rice, and they will also plant them in a large area to replace the original pills that assisted in cultivation.

Ye Zan doesn't really want to cherish himself, but it's not too much to have a little advantage in what he has made. If you spill things directly, others can use them without restrictions, so who will read your good? Perhaps, while holding a bowl and eating spiritual rice, people scolded Ye Zan and Yuqingzong for being stupid.

Fame, Ye Zan himself doesn't care too much, but Yuqingzong needs it. For a sect to develop, in addition to its own strength, reputation is also very important. Take this time, why did Yuqing Sect hold a celebration, on the one hand, it shows its importance to the four great demon kings, but more importantly, it is for the sake of fame. Only when your fame is greater and spreads more widely, will there be more geniuses who are willing to run across thousands of mountains and rivers to join you.

Therefore, Ye Zan did not plan to hold this spiritual rice to no one to know, nor did he plan not to share any benefits with others, but the initiative must be held in his hands. Anyway, as long as they can get benefits, they won't jump over the wall in a hurry to the detriment of Yuqing Sect. And the current Yuqing Sect is not the time to engage in thousands of miles of sound transmission at the beginning, and has enough strength and qualifications to get the prestige that he deserves.

The set of things that were bred was put in the secret realm of summer time, and at the same time, a large field was opened up in the secret realm for large-scale cultivation of this spiritual rice. Of course, in addition to the secret realm of summer time, Ye Zan naturally will not forget the small world of Asgard, which is the place that can really become the main production area.

It's just that in the small world of Asgard, only Ye Zan can go out freely now, and this summer secret realm is a place where Wu Changsheng, the head of the sect, can enter and exit. In case in the future, Ye Zan will have to leave the mountain for a long time, and no one will be able to enter the small world of the Immortal Palace, won't the disciples of the Yuqing Sect have to run out of food.

And after arranging the summer time secret realm, Ye Zan entered the small world of Asgard again, and it had been nearly twenty days since the last time he left.

Coming to the small world of Asgard, Ye Zan naturally had to take a look at Wu Changsheng's experience first. In the past twenty days, Wu Changsheng's progress was not slow, and they had already entered the underground labyrinth of the fourth layer. It's just that, judging by their performance in the maze, if they want to get out of the underground maze, I'm afraid that another twenty days will not be enough.

"Why are you here again, boy. Ta Lao appeared beside Ye Zan.

"Ta Lao, this level, there is no need to embarrass them so much. Ye Zan couldn't bear to see it. But more importantly, he didn't think that this maze really had any effect on Wu Changsheng and them.

"What do you know, then Wu Changsheng, as the contemporary head of the Yuqing Sect, if he doesn't even have the ability to lead people out of the labyrinth, what qualifications do he have to be the head of this sect, it is better to die in this labyrinth. Ta Lao said angrily, it seemed that he was already a little dissatisfied with Wu Changsheng's performance.

"What does this maze have to do with being a master...... Ye Zan said not very seriously.

"Since you let the old man supervise them, then the old man must be in charge, otherwise you should ask for another master. Ta Lao interrupted Ye Zan and said unceremoniously.

"Uh...... Okay, it's all up to you" Ye Zan was quite helpless, and said secretly in his heart: I asked you to watch them from the side, so that they don't have any accidents, how can they become overseers when they come to you! It's just that in the face ......of the current tower elder, he can't say this, he can only bitter Wu Changsheng them......

"What else is there to do when you come over this time?" asked Ta Lao.

"It's nothing, I won't bother you to practice them, go first, and say goodbye. Ye Zan hurriedly said, and escaped out of the Tower of Babel as if he had escaped. He was really afraid of the old tower, and he would be counted in if he didn't agree with him. After all, when he first passed the underground labyrinth, he used cheating to get through.
