Cultivation: I Have Studied Abroad in the Modern World

Leaving the group of sharp minds to discuss or argue, Zheng Fa walked out of the nursing home, transformed into a long rainbow, and instantly arrived at the foot of Rainbow Mountain.

This used to be a village, and Zheng Fa had come here before.

Earlier, when he and Tang Lingwu were searching for a suitable mountain range, they stayed at a homestay in this village.

At this time, the villagers had long been relocated, and there's word that they received quite a substantial compensation — Old Man Bai still has some contacts with that homestay owner, and when it comes to the group of people forced to relocate, one can hear envy in their words.

Especially after seeing the lavish lifestyle the owner posts on social media...

It's not about Zheng Fa boasting, but this group's sudden wealth is probably somewhat related to him:

Back then, relocating them was also to keep Rainbow Mountain a secret.

Now, there are fewer houses in the village, but the fields outside have not been abandoned. Looking across from the mountain foot to the distant horizon, they appear neat and verdant.

Now, this place also serves as the agricultural research base of the Hongshan Research Institute.

Agricultural research at Rainbow Mountain was previously two main areas — spirit plants and non-spirit plants.

The cultivation base of spirit plants is within Rainbow Mountain, where the spiritual energy is abundant and the cultivation efficiency of spirit plants is high.

Non-spirit plants, are what Mr. Hou and his team have been working on, using spirit plants as parents to cultivate varieties that do not require a spiritual energy environment but yield more, are more nutritious, and tastier than current crops.

That was before, now things are different.

Since the phenomenon of the great sun, Fusang Wood has developed a slight connection with the modern world, and now there's also spiritual energy outside of Rainbow Mountain!

Currently, the difference between inside and outside the mountain is merely that the spiritual energy inside Rainbow Mountain is extremely rich, while outside it is somewhat less, possibly not even one-thousandth, no, one-ten-thousandth of Rainbow Mountain's.

But this is enough to change the agricultural research system of Rainbow Mountain.

Walking along the ridge of the field, after a few steps, one sees a group of people standing in the farmland.

Mr. Hou squats in the field, seemingly observing the wheat ears.

Mrs. Tian stands beside him, whispered questions being asked.

Tang Lingwu is also bowing her head, listening earnestly.

Behind them, there is a group of agronomy researchers, whispering among themselves.

Zheng Fa walks up, and this group doesn't even notice.

He moves through the crowd, reaches Tang Lingwu's side, Tang Lingwu seems to feel someone got too close, thought it was a researcher, she steps back slightly, frowns, and looks coldly at Zheng Fa.

But upon realizing it's Zheng Fa, she gently retreats her step, standing shoulder to shoulder, and looks at the field.

Seeing Mr. Hou and Mrs. Tian animatedly discussing, Zheng Fa decides not to disturb them, and quietly asks Tang Lingwu: "How's it?"

Tang Lingwu nods slightly, leans towards Zheng Fa's ear, and deliberately whispers: "Very good!"

No need to be so secretive.

Her actions did catch the attention of the two over there, seeing Zheng Fa, Mr. Hou smiled: "This Spiritual Wheat No.1 is better than all the varieties we researched before!"

His voice is loud and clear, no longer retaining the sickly vibe he had when he first arrived at the nursing home. Now, he even springs up vigorously and strides to stand in front of Zheng Fa.

"Your revised 'Jiushan Agricultural Manual' saved us a lot of trouble! That Master Qian is truly a genius!"

Mr. Hou was not only praising this newly cultivated spirit wheat, but his words also greatly applauded the revised "Jiushan Agricultural Manual".

The original version of the "Jiushan Agricultural Manual" was edited by Mr. Hou along with modern agronomy scholars, mainly based on modern academic research results, except the research subject had changed to spirit plants.

But the revised "Jiushan Agricultural Manual" has a lot more — mainly supplemented by Master Qian's team.

In terms of theoretical depth, they have yet to reach the level of modern biology.

But on the practical side, especially regarding knowledge related to spirit plants, Mr. Hou and his team are far surpassed.

Especially after cultivating Qingjing Bamboo and Fusang Wood, if Jiushan Sect boasts expertise in the Xuanwei realm —

Then Master Qian and his perfected "Jiushan Agricultural Manual (Revised)" are undoubtedly the top.

On this point, Mingde Master, Master Cheng Kong, and Great Freedom Demon Ancestor can all attest!

When Zheng Fa handed this revised "Jiushan Agricultural Manual" to the modern world, it can be said to be the first time modern and Jiushan Realm technologies fused greatly.

It could even be regarded as the Jiushan Sect's first reciprocation to modern technology!

And the result, is this Spiritual Wheat No.1 before us.

"Spiritual Wheat No.1, with yields reaching up to 2,200 pounds per acre, minimum 1,800 pounds, average yield per acre 2,000 pounds!"

Zheng Fa has learned that the current national average wheat yield per acre is about 800 pounds, with high-yield areas reaching about 1,200 pounds.

Now the yield of Spiritual Wheat No.1 far exceeds these figures.

"From a nutritional value perspective, Spiritual Wheat No.1 not only contains high levels of protein and minerals but also seems to reduce cardiovascular diseases." Mr. Hou paused here, "This has only been tested in animal experiments now, specific effects need further testing."

Regarding food, they remain cautious.

Before new species hit the market, corresponding human trials are usually conducted, but due to resource support from above, the process is always expedited.

"Regarding cultivation environment, due to the presence of spiritual energy, this variety does not pick its environment, and can adapt to most of the domestic wheat-growing areas."

As he speaks, Mr. Hou's face blossoms into an irrepressibly radiant smile.

Even the agricultural research team behind him couldn't contain their joy.
