Chapter 488: Jiang He’s Deity Creation Plan
Jiang He did a rough count.
He had over 3,000 Intermediate God divinities, and each earned him ten million Farm Points after planting.
“Over three thousand Intermediate God divinities produces over 30 billion Farm Points!”
“Moreover, there is also over 50,000 Lesser God divinities, and since I would earn a million from each of those divinities I plant, it would earn me over 50 billion Farm Points, making it over 120 billion altogether.”
“Hmmm...”
Jiang He’s face scowled after counting thus far.
He cursed, at a loss for words. “And here I thought that my martial cultivation could be improved after I planted everything, but now it seems that there is still too large of a gap.”
After that, Jiang He took out the divinities of the twelve Overdeities, passing them to Dumbo to plant.
After that, he called up Trumbo, the Seven Bottle Gourd Brothers, Unknown Fox, and the nine Wise Rock Monkeys to give them every divinity he had, instructing, “Plant everything. I’m stepping out for an errand.”
Striding out of the farm, he appeared in a flash at a mansion within a mansion district in Lingzhou City.
It belonged to Wang Siyu’s family, now one of the richer families in the city.
The Wang family had received many benefits thanks to Jiang He’s support, with both of Wang Siyu’s parents becoming martial artists. Even if they had no martial talent, Jiang He’s truckload of resources pushed them up the third-tier in martial arts.
And as if gaining second wind in life, Wang Zhong’s bald head was now full of thick, black hair.
Wang Sizhen, the eldest son in the family, was now both a powerful Awakened who cultivated in the new martial arts system to reach the third-tier as well... and it was said that his heavenly rubber mallet was extremely incredible.
He now owned the top construction company in the Hua Nation and recruited many Awakened adept at construction, partnering with many city bases, even national agencies.
There was even less need to speak of Wang Siyu.
Her martial arts accomplishment was acceptable as she more or less made it to the fourth-tier of martial arts, but was incredible as a cultivator, having reached Convergence-tier, and was not far from Sufferance.
After all, Jiang He did not contribute much resources to help with Wang Siyu’s cultivation. The reason she was as good as she was now was because she was too talented in the immortal arts.
Wang Siyu was especially accomplished in the wood-element, and Jiang He was sure that she could gain an Innate Wood Dao Form if she further developed.
In the mansion, Wang Siyu, who was closing her eyes to cultivate, slowly opened her eyes.
She was cultivating, and her senses towards her surroundings was incredibly clear as she could feel everything through plant life. Furthermore, Jiang He was not hiding, so she immediately noticed him.
Pushing open the window, Wang Siyu leapt off and flew to Jiang He.
There was both delight and grief on her pretty face as she asked, “Why are you here?”
“It’s a long night, can’t sleep.”
Jiang He pulled her into his arms and chuckled, “Are you angry that I’ve been busy these few days and hadn’t come to visit?”
“Didn’t you just visit three days before?”
“Eh?”
After some flirting, Jiang He cut to the point and said, “I’ve come to you today with something to discuss—I’m going to head to the celestial battlefield, are you going?”
“You’re heading to the celestial battlefield?”
Wang Siyu frowned somberly and said, “Weren’t you saying that it is very dangerous, for that is where the Saints strut and Demi-Saints overflow? Earth is at peace, so why don’t you stay to cultivate for a while before heading to the celestial battlefield?”
“It’s just my hunch that it is a place where the Saints strut and Demi-Saints overflow. The truth is that the place might not be that dangerous, and if the Saints do not make a move, I don’t have to fear average Demi-Saints with my current level, just as the best of them would not have an easy time if they were trying to kill me,” Jiang He said with a smile.
Holding back to cultivate?
My foot!
Cultivation progress was counted in units of years at his current cultivation level. It was even normal to confine oneself for centuries or even millennia after slightly gaining enlightenment.
Him, a kid in his twenties who had cultivated for less than a year and a half, sitting in meditation for a thousand years?
Would that not be ridiculous?
Moreover, would he be able to calm himself and cultivate without resolving the business with the Green Hill Foxes and the Nether River Patriarch?
Despite his inward wisecrack, Jiang He kept smiling. “I’m going to do something important at the celestial battlefield. It’s said to be a long journey, and I heard that we would have to pass by certain special planets or systems. Since I have not taken you on a trip after knowing you for so long, we could go on this trip together.”
Wang Siyu appeared convinced but remained a little worried, musing, “Wouldn’t I hold you back since I’m so weak?”
“It’s fine.”
“The Fortune Qi blooms for Martial Dao on earth right now, holding back immortal arts. You would not feel it much, but it still affects you a lot unknowingly. Still, with your talent and my methods, your cultivation would definitely improve by leaps and bounds after we leave Earth, and you might already be a Heavenly Immortal when we reach the celestial battlefield.”
Wang Siyu agreed and said, “I’ll need to get prepared and buy some items for daily use.”
“No rush. You could get it in the morning.”
After leaving Lingzhou City, Jiang He went for a stroll around Jingdu City.
He found Wang Hou and gossiped with him over meat skewers, only returning next morning.
Heading inside his farm once he got home, he plucked the many divinities on the trees with a wave of his hand, firing streaks of immortal light from his fingertips. As System Notifications jingled repetitively, Jiang He directly muted his senses to ignore them.
“Dumbo, Trumbo, collect the divinities.”
After that, Jiang He headed to the twelve towering trees planted from the divinities of the Overdeities.
The largest of the twelve trees was around 160 meters tall, its tree crown spanning over a thousand meters.
The tree itself was composed of thunderbolts, which flickered over its branch, tree crown, and tree trunk.
The other eleven trees fell just a little short compared to it, and were composed of either burning flames, flowing water, or even pure light.
Surprised, Jiang He could not help muttering, “Light? Could it be a god of light? But the Overdeity of Light only exists in novels, and wasn’t among the twelve Overdeities of the West... Eh?”
“Could it be the Sun God?”
Did The Sun God become an Overdeity with the power of light itself?
Jiang He flew forward and plucked the hexagonal prism Overdeity divinity, which shone like a miniature sun.
[Ding!]
[+100 million Farm Points.]
“...”
Jiang He’s flinched.
One Overdeity’s divinity directly earned him a hundred million Farm Points?
And each tree supposedly bore a hundred fruits...
“Eh?”
Nonetheless, his expression darkened and he could not help mouthing an expletive and cursed, “F*ck! Why are there only ten fruits in one tree?”
Jiang He only calmed down after cursing for a while.
Come to think of it, it did make sense for a single tree to bear the divinity of ten Overdeities... since an Overdeity was almost equivalent to a Grand Luo.
An average Overdeity might be weaker than an average Grand Luo, but peak Overdeities such as Ares, Poseidon, and Hephaestus would not lose out to Yu Yuan, that Jie Sect third-generation disciple who had visited Earth the other day.
As for Zeus?
He basically was not an Overdeity, having almost reached Paragon-tier among gods. Moreover, his combat ability was a match for any average Demi-Saint after absorbing the belief of all beings and gods.
Since the western cultivation system was special, that single divinity was a condensation of an Overdeity’s enlightenments through the course of his life. If he could cultivate from it, that would mean...
“I’ve planted ten Overdeity divinities belonging to Zeus!”
“Doesn’t that mean we are very likely to create ten elites as powerful as Zeus?”
Jiang He looked up at the other eleven trees.
Each had ten Overdeity divinities dangling as well.
“Overdeities are counterparts to Grand Luo, and they are still equal even if the former are weaker in combat... If I use all these Overdeity divinities, doesn’t hat mean I could develop ten Demi-Saints and 110 Grand Luo?”
“Still, it would be a long process.”
“Even after fusing divinities, one would just have to cultivate periodically, and they might even gain the enlightenment contained in the divinity... Still, there is no fully cultivating from the Overdeity divinity without spending decades or centuries.”
Sigh!
Jiang He chuckled bitterly with a long exhale. “What a shame. Even with substantial Overdeity divinities, trying to develop ten Demi-Saints and 110 Grand Luo would take some time, or the Nether River Patriarch and the Green Hill Foxes would not amount to much if they could be groomed immediately!”
Despite his complaints, Jiang He had immediately called out to Dumbo, Trumbo, and the Seven Bottle Gourd Brothers. Sharing the nine Zeus divinities and sharing it among them, he said, “This is everything that Zeus, King of the Western Gods, had learned through the course of his life. Cultivate it, learn about the wonders within, and try to fully cultivate these divinities as fast as you can.”
“Oh right, each of you can chase a thunder-element divinity from a Lesser God, an Intermediate God, and a Greater God so that you cultivate it step-by-step. You might get it done quicker that way.”
After that, Jiang He called up Boa, Sora, Hu Mei, the nine Wise Rock Monkeys, Unknown Fox, and even his willow tree and Cloudscraper Vine each an Overdeity divinity.
After all, relying on those things to cultivate might make things difficult.
Jiang He had also kept a Zeus Overdeity divinity for Wang Siyu.
He did not intend to give it to her for now since she was highly gifted. Moreover, she would have a chance to reach Demi-Saint with his strong support.
Jiang He put away the remaining divinities for the time being.
There were too many for him to use up for now.
“I could observe if the Golden Immortals and True Immortals are hoping to ascend, and I could give them an Overdeity divinity to develop themselves.”
“By the way...”
“I heard that the Saints had even grasped the Dao of time to accelerate or pause time... I could try having a Saint put up an array to accelerate time after reaching the celestial battlefield, so that a hundred years would pass inside the array while a day passes outside. I just might be able to develop a group of elites soon!”
“When the time comes, I would have some confidence when I reason things out with the Green Hill Foxes and the Nether River Patriarch, yes?”
***
Soon, three days had passed.
The weather was dull and there was a drizzle outside. Wang Hou came streaking through the horizon.
He made some small talk upon meeting Jiang He, and smiled. “When do we leave, Mister Jiang?”
Jiang He’s eyes lit up and he exclaimed, “We’ll go right now!”
