Chapter 485: 484, [Pea Shooter]_1

Su Yu could tell that Elder Tao seemed to have something to say, but he was in the heat of excitement, so he decided to speak first.

“Elder, are there any Grandmasters on Yunlu Mountain who are good at cultivation or speeding up plant growth?” Su Yu asked urgently.

Temporarily putting aside the matter of the terrorists, Elder Tao stroked his beard and replied, “Of course there are, I am one of them. How else do you think I attained cultivation and became a high-ranking cultivator?”

Su Yu was taken aback: “You?”

But then, it made sense.

Most of the Grandmasters who managed to live from ancient times to the present were emperors of various dynasties. These emperors could use their power to seize the nation’s spiritual energy resources for their own use.

Elder Tao was just a poet, who had secluded himself in the mountains in his later years. Unless he had outstanding talent or some cultivation methods of immortal grasses, there was absolutely no chance he could have altered his fate to live until now.

A joy surged in Su Yu’s heart: “Since you know how to speed up plant growth, that’s more than enough! I just obtained a way to get golden plant seeds in the game world…”

He told Elder Tao the whole story of how “Dave cultivated the Marigold.”

At the end of the story, Su Yu also elaborated on the significance of planting golden plants in the real world for humanity.

Elder Tao quietly listened to Su Yu’s narrative, his eyes gradually glowing.

After Su Yu finished, he exclaimed: “From your description, this is a good thing indeed! Can I take a look at this seed?”

“Of course!” Su Yu took out the Twin Sunflowers seed and handed it to him.

“This… indeed is a life full of vigor.” Elder Tao played with the seed, fascinated.

He nodded and said: “Alright, I will help you catalyze this seed right away!”

In a quiet valley at the back of Yunlu Mountain where no one was around, Elder Tao found a piece of fertile land and planted the seed into the soil.

Then he stretched out his hand, and a jade-green flask appeared in his hand.

He smiled at Su Yu: “Su Yu, my friend, this jade flask is called the ‘Heaven-Controlling Bottle’, a magical artifact handed down by the Three Pure Ones. When I was secluded in the mountains, I obtained this magical artifact through a stroke of luck, which allowed me to condense the Gold Pill, break the Primordial Child, and ultimately gain a long life spanning three thousand years.”

Su Yu: “…”

His face twitched, was Elder Tao so open about such a precious item? Wasn’t he afraid that the Grandmasters on the mountain with ill-intentions would try to snatch it?

Although Su Yu and Elder Tao were in the valley, they were not too far from the Blue Star base at the top of the mountain. If any scheming Grandmaster was eavesdropping on their conversation, they could hear it.

As if seeing through Su Yu’s thoughts, Elder Tao laughed carelessly: “Don’t worry, the Heaven-Controlling Bottle is not considered much of a treasure now.”

“Because of the depletion of spiritual energy, this treasure has been ineffective for a long time. Even now that the spiritual energy has recovered, there is not much spiritual energy in the world to absorb. The Heaven-Controlling Bottle cannot absorb enough spiritual energy, so the effect has almost gone. That’s why I’ve only collected a few dozen drops of spiritual liquid that can promote plant growth till today.”

After Elder Tao finished speaking, he poured a drop of green liquid from the small bottle, dripping it onto the soil above the Sunflower seed.

“According to my judgment, this plant will germinate in 10 seconds!” he confidently stroked his beard.

“10 seconds? That’s really fast! Truly a treasure!” Su Yu casually praised, his eyes fixed on the patch of soil where the sunflower seed was planted.

But what Su Yu hadn’t expected was…

10 seconds later, the seed did not break through the soil, nothing happened on the ground.

Elder Tao’s smile was a bit forced, yet he still kept it on his face.

5 seconds later.

“That’s impossible!” He thought there must have been a mistake, he walked forward and voluntarily dug up the soil, picking up the buried sunflower seed.

After taking out the seed, he found that the sunflower seed had not changed at all compared to before. There was not even a tiny change, like it was completely unaffected by the spiritual liquid.

“This is impossible!” Elder Tao stared at the Sunflower seed, scanning the internal structure of the seed with his Divine Sense. It was the first time he had encountered a situation where the spiritual liquid was ineffective.

But Su Yu had realized why this had happened.

Because all the plant seeds produced in the game world, such as [Sunflower], [Twin Sunflowers], and [Sun Mushroom], stated “Requires [Farm]” on the planting instructions. They can only germinate and grow on the farm, and they cannot grow or produce [Sunshine] on any other soil.

The other plants like [Pea Shooter] didn’t have this requirement, they could be planted in any reasonable soil.

Su Yu brought the Twin Sunflowers seed here with a certain element of gamble, to see if it could grow in reality.

Now it seemed that the answer was no.

He sighed lightly, stood up and said: “Elder Tao, it should be this seed that has the problem…how about this, I will go back to the game world to bring another seed and we can try again!”

“Alright, I’ll wait for you here.”

About ten minutes later, Su Yu returned to Yunlu Mountain with a golden seed of [Pea Shooter].

This time was completely different from the last time.

After Elder Tao dropped the spiritual liquid, the seed quickly sprouted and grew roots.

In less than three minutes, the plant fully matured, the seed officially grew into a full-fledged [Pea Shooter]!

Through the [Insight] spell, Su Yu was able to see its attributes.

[Pea Shooter]

Plant

Level: 51 (Max Level 55)

Current Growth Stage: Mature

Remaining Lifespan: 3 days

Skill: [Pea Spit]

Note: The Pea Shooter’s high intelligence and power consumption have exhausted all its potential for growth as a plant. Its entire lifecycle only lasts for 12 days, which is very short.

The Pea Shooter’s growth cycle is divided into four stages: the 3-day Seedling Stage (10-30 level), the 3-day Growth Stage (30-50 level), the 3-day Mature Stage (50-55 level), and the 3-day Declining Stage (55-10 level).

After 12 days, the plant will wither completely.

The full-grown [Pea Shooter] is a third-level plant, an aspect that Su Yu was very satisfied with!

Although the entire mature stage lasts only three days, and once planted, it cannot be moved, its overall strength is certainly far inferior to that of a third-level player.

However, the biggest advantage of plants is their quantity!

The Marigold does not restrict that it must be planted on a [Farm], in the future period under Dave’s lead, the planting scale can be expanded to tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions!

Such a large number of plants, among which are some powerful [Cherry Bomb], [Doomsday Mushroom] and other plants, can certainly bring great help to humanity!

No matter what, this thing has great potential for development, it seems that I have to reward Dave well when I go back.
