Douluo Dalu: Golden Spirit Tree

Chapter 47 Dragon Pattern Rice, Xuanzi
After the seeds were planted in the soil, Lin Yi had one more item on his daily routine. Every morning, Lin Yi would sit cross-legged under the golden tree, transforming himself into a hardworking little farmer, unfolding his own golden field, and drawing upon the power of ultimate light and ultimate life to temper and promote the growth of the seeds.

Growing under the ancient golden tree, with the assistance of Lin Yi's domain and the glory of the two plant gods, the growth and essential improvement of the spiritual rice are almost visible to the naked eye. In particular, Lin Yi is still irrigating it with dragon blood. Of course, it is only the blood of some sub-dragon species such as earth dragons.

But even so, Lingwen Rice has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The spiritual pattern rice now is not only filled with light and breath of life, but also exudes a faint dragon aura. The name "spiritual pattern rice" is no longer suitable. Perhaps calling it dragon pattern rice would be more appropriate.

Originally, neither Moon nor Lin Qingxuan would agree to such a waste of time to grow dragon-patterned rice. However, when Lin Yi gave the reason of using it to train the use of his domain, no one stopped him.

After all, with the cultivation of dragon-patterned rice, Lin Yi's improvement in proficiency in the field is visible to the naked eye.

The secret lies in the fact that the ultimate light and life required for each dragon-patterned rice are different. Lin Yi needs to have insight into this and then use his domain to achieve true intensive cultivation as much as possible.

Through such meticulous training, Lin Yi's control over the domain and his own strength became more and more sophisticated.

In this way, Lin Yi would hone his domain at Longwenmi in the morning, and practice farming at the same time. In the afternoon, he would go to Lin Qingxuan to learn about soul guides. At dusk, he would go to Moon to learn about martial soul knowledge. Every day was so fulfilling.

However, things don't always go smoothly. That morning, Lin Yi was releasing the golden field to give birth to dragon-patterned rice when he suddenly discovered that a sloppy figure had appeared beside him.

"Mr. Xuan."

The person who came was Xuan Zi, the strongest man under Moon in the Sea God Pavilion.

Lin Yi was not familiar with this Old Xuan. He had only met him once in the Sea God Pavilion before. But later he heard that this Old Xuan was under house arrest by Moon and was not allowed to leave the Sea God Island. Therefore, this Old Xuan had been in seclusion and was rarely seen.

But why did this person think of coming to see me today?

"Hahahaha," without saying anything, he burst into laughter. Lin Yi thought about it and thought that this seemed to be a way of expressing kindness in those routines in the other world, but, it was an old trick...

"Little guy, your training method is good and very thoughtful."

Lin Yi was a little confused. What did this old man want to do? Just to praise him?
When I first saw the old man in the Poseidon Pavilion, I thought he was some unkempt master, and I was thinking about trying to build some relationship with him. But later I found out that this old man was just like that.

"I don't deserve Master Xuan's praise. I wonder what brings you here?"

Lin Yi didn't want to beat around the bush with the old man and asked directly. His master was the head of the Sea God Pavilion. In Shrek Academy, Lin Yi was not afraid of offending anyone. He was just that willful.

Xuan Zi was caught off guard by Lin Yi's direct question. He felt a little embarrassed and laughed dryly, as if he had made up his mind.

Lin Yi just looked at the dirty old man curiously.

"Little guy, how much do you sell this rice for?"

"???"

Lin Yi was puzzled. Everyone in the Sea God Pavilion knew that the dragon-patterned rice was used by him to treat Moon's injuries. Even if he hadn't heard the news, seeing that Lin Yi created the ultimate light and ultimate life, and also watered it with dragon blood, he could guess something. Why did this old Xuan... look like he was missing a string?

But the old man was so powerful that it was hard to fool him, so Lin Yi had to tell the truth: "Master Xuan, this rice is not for sale. It is for my master to heal his injuries."

Xuan Zi seemed to recall something when he heard this. "Old Mu said you wanted to clear a plot of land under the golden tree just to grow this?"

Lin Yi nodded to confirm.

"This..." Xuan Zi hesitated.

"Master Xuan, what do you want this rice for?"

"Eat." Xuan Zi, who was absent-minded, didn't think much about it when he heard Lin Yi's question, and told his real purpose.

Then Xuan Zi realized that he had inadvertently told the truth, but the words had already been spoken, so Xuan Zi had no choice but to tell the truth.

Lin Yi finally understood that this old man Xuan's martial soul was called Taotie Divine Bull, and it had Taotie bloodline, just like the Taotie from another world that Lin Yi knew, it loved to eat. For Taotie, eating was equivalent to cultivation.

As Xuan Zi's Taotie bloodline was incomplete, his martial soul was even more severely defective, and he could hardly stop eating and drinking. Once his appetite came up, he really couldn't care about anything else. Because of this, Xuan Zi almost made mistakes several times before. Fortunately, Xuan Zi was strong and did not let things get to the point where they were irreversible.

The dragon-patterned rice produced by Lin Yizhong is of such excellent quality that even though it is not yet ripe, it already has a refreshing fragrance that is extremely tempting. How can Xuanzi, who has the blood of a glutton, bear it?

After understanding Xuanzi's intention, Lin Yi no longer had any doubts. However, regarding the dragon-patterned rice, Lin Yi could only apologize to Xuanzi. After all, he had only planted half an acre this time, and it was not yet mature. He had no idea what the effect would be. He really had no way to satisfy Xuanzi's appetite.

Although Xuan Zi was reckless, he was not stupid after all. He knew that this was to treat Moon's injury, so he naturally would not make any mistakes. He just left in a rather dejected manner.

Lin Yi thought the matter was over, but a few days later, he discovered that there was a farmer guarding his rice with dragon patterns...

This person was naturally Xuan Zi. He didn't fight, eat, or make a fuss. He just stood by the field every day, greedily looking at the dragon-patterned rice, his mouth watering. He held a chicken drumstick in one hand and a gourd in the other, enjoying the fragrance of the dragon-patterned rice while eating. Seeing Lin Yi was stunned, was this really the appearance of a level 98 Super Douluo?
But Lin Yi couldn't be driven away. He just came to take a look. He was an elder of the Sea God Pavilion. What was the big deal about such a small matter? It would just make Xuanzi lose face.

However, when Lin Yi looked at Xuan Zi who was drinking wine while sniffing dragon-patterned rice by the field, he didn't think that this Taotie Douluo cared about his face.

For the sake of the dragon-patterned rice and his own mood, Lin Yi decided to do something.

First of all, it would definitely not work to complain to Moon. After all, this is not a big deal for this Taotie Douluo.

Secondly, forcing him to chase was absolutely unacceptable. This was a peak Super Douluo, the strongest of the strong. The majesty of the strong should not be challenged. No matter how important Lin Yi's status was or how talented he was, he had to keep this in mind.

Persuade him to leave in a subtle way? Looking at Xuanzi's expression, he knew it wouldn't work.

After thinking about it, Lin Yi decided to start with Xuanzi's martial soul. After all, Xuanzi was just greedy, so he could just find some other delicious food and trick him away.

Therefore, whether it was Moon, Lin Qingxuan or Ouyang Xi, they all discovered that Lin Yi had changed a little recently, that is, he also started to play.

He drags Beibei to stroll around Shrek City every day, not only looking for all kinds of delicious food, but also trying to cook them himself, with Beibei in charge of tasting the food.

After seven days, leaving aside other things, Beibei said he couldn't bear it anymore.

In just seven days, Beibei was on the verge of tears. Going out to find food was nothing special. Beibei would go for a walk when she was tired from practicing. But Lin Yi did it himself...

The taste was quite amazing. Anyway, after seven days, Beibei said that he still had to take care of Moon's retirement and could not afford to be injured.

Another benefit was that Lin Yi and Xuan Zi had become almost familiar with each other. After all, Lin Yi's goal was to trick Xuan Zi away, so he naturally wanted to bring Xuan Zi some of the delicious food he found outside to try, to see if he could persuade him to leave. As for the food he made, even Bei Bei couldn't eat it, let alone Xuan Zi, a gourmet.

However, after a while, Lin Yi suddenly realized that he had almost maxed out Xuan Zi's favorability. Now Xuan Zi looked at Lin Yi with a kind look. After all, no foodie would refuse someone who fed him.

As the two chatted, Lin Yi gradually got to know more about Xuan Zi's martial soul.

As for Beibei, Lin Yi said that he didn't need him for the time being and told him to do as he pleased.

Beibei: “!!!”

In the following time, Lin Yi began to study Xuan Zi's martial soul.

After spending some time together, Lin Yi discovered that this old man was actually quite simple. At least, Lin Yi felt that he was easy to fool.

Lin Yi has never given up the research on martial souls. Xuan Zi's Taotie Divine Bull is undoubtedly of great research value.

The Taotie Divine Bull has the blood of Taotie, the ninth son of the dragon, with a sheep's body, tiger teeth and human claws, eyes in its armpits, and a pair of exaggeratedly large horns. It is a top-level earth-attributed beast martial spirit.

Lin Yi thought about the situation of Xuan Zi's martial soul and began to analyze it.

"Taotie bloodline, gluttony, is both a flaw and a way of cultivation. This martial soul is quite unique."

"It's just that the human body is very strange. Under normal circumstances, the body will not give birth to a martial spirit with obvious defects. However, this world always seems to have unexpected situations, just like Ma Xiaotao's evil fire phoenix before."

"However, the flaw of this martial spirit, the Taotie Divine Bull, is a bit strange. It may not seem very serious, but it seriously interferes with my normal life. I always feel that something is wrong."

"What is the origin of this martial spirit?"

Thinking of this, Lin Yi suddenly felt a flash of inspiration in his mind, "Taotie, divine bull?"

"Since it can carry the bloodline of Taotie, then this cow is naturally not an ordinary cow, but a divine cow..."

Lin Yi chuckled softly, his eyes gleaming with confidence, "It turns out the answer has always been on the puzzle."

Looking at Xuan Zi who was eating happily, Lin Yi said, "Master Xuan, don't eat yet. Let's go find my master. I have something important to say."

"Just go by yourself. Why drag me along? Guarding the dragon-patterned rice will give me an extra hour to eat."

Looking at Xuan Zi who was addicted to food, Lin Yi frowned. The blue silver external soul bone was activated, and leaves emerged, pulling Xuan Zi up. Lin Yi, who loved cleanliness, would never pull up this dirty old man directly.

"This concerns your martial spirit, so don't eat it yet."

With a gleam in his eyes, Xuan Zi looked at Lin Yi seriously. Seeing that Lin Yi was not joking, he didn't waste any words. His soul power instantly enveloped Lin Yi, and he went up to the third floor of the Sea God Pavilion in a flash...
