Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Yu Luanyu: “You… hello, Cao Xing big brother… I have two seeds of golden magic plants here. Can I trade them for your golden salmon meat?”

She seemed a bit afraid to communicate with Cao Xing.

However, Cao Xing had never encountered seeds of golden quality magic plants before.

So, he replied, “What kind of seeds are they? Show me.”

Yu Luanyu quickly responded, “Okay… okay…”

After speaking, she posted the attributes of the seeds.

Cao Xing glanced at them.

[Vine Head Cannon Plant Seed (Gold): Magic Plant]

[Affiliation: Medemoteng]

[Seed Effect: Plant in soil rich with plague aura and water with beast blood regularly. It can rapidly grow into a vine head cannon plant with boss-level strength of level 25.]

(Note: The vine head cannon possesses powerful defensive capabilities and can launch plague bombs and entangling vines but needs to be fed fresh beasts periodically and cannot move.)

…

After reading the introductions of these two seeds, a look of contemplation appeared in Cao Xing’s eyes.

Obviously, these plant seeds were quite formidable. They could indeed grow into a level 25 defensive type plant cannon.

However, this vine head cannon sounded somewhat sinister. Not only did it need to be planted in soil rich with plague aura, but it also required watering with beast blood.

That was likely why Yu Luanyu hadn’t planted them herself and chose to trade them instead.

But in any case, these were seeds of golden quality.

Cao Xing decided to trade for them first and then ask Juliette if they could be planted in the territory.

So, he said directly, “I can take these two seeds, but I can only give you 200g of golden salmon meat.”

Yu Luanyu seemed disbelieving upon hearing this price and replied, “Ah… so little?”

“No other way, these seeds’ attributes seem a bit odd. I’m not even sure they can be planted.”

Hearing this, Yu Luanyu replied, “Then… can you add a little more?”

Cao Xing pondered for a moment, then said, “I can add at most 100g, no more.”

“Okay… okay… thank you…”

After agreeing on the price, Cao Xing proceeded with the trade.

[Trade successful. You have obtained [Vine Head Cannon Plant Seed (Gold)]*2 and lost [Golden Salmon Meat]*300g…]

Then, Cao Xing reviewed the private chat messages again.

After confirming there was nothing worth trading, he closed the market and took down the consignment information for the salmon meat.

At this point, this trade was considered concluded.

The survivors in the chat channel seemed still eager for more.

Those squad leaders who, against all odds, used the [Ice Dragon Horn] to demonstrate power were struggling to fend off the attacks of the Ice Nest Monsters.

Especially the people from Wangjiang Pavilion, who were anxiously watching others trade golden salmon meat frantically, having been blacklisted by Cao Xing.

However, that was no concern of Cao Xing’s.

He looked at his backpack with a satisfied expression.

“This trade was really rewarding!”

“Once I digest this harvest, my strength will surely increase significantly!”

Thinking about this, Cao Xing called Liu Muxue over.

Then he handed her the [Aurora Thought] skill book.

Liu Muxue, looking at the golden skill book in her hand, clicked to learn without hesitation.

She then asked softly, “Axing, should I try out this skill?”

“Alright, give it a shot.”

With Cao Xing’s permission, Liu Muxue raised the longsword in her hand, pointing the tip to the sky.

Simultaneously, a dazzling multicolored aurora began to gather at the tip of her sword.

“Oh benevolent God, please grant me the resolve to overcome obstacles, the wisdom to escape adversity, the spirit to resist seduction, and the power to protect my kind!”

The next moment, this multicolored aurora fell onto Cao Xing.

[Your subordinate lord: Liu Muxue has cast the skill [Aurora Thought] on you, increasing Spiritual Resistance by 50% and granting one chance to be immune to spiritual attacks. The skill, influenced by the talent [Eternal Power], has become permanent.]

(Note: After the immune spiritual attack triggers, it will refresh again after 60 seconds.)

…

Cao Xing felt his mind suddenly become clearer, as if enveloped in an invisible protective layer, which gave a strong sense of security.

At the same time, he noticed the appended information.

“Indeed, similar to the Holy Shield, the immune attack effect will refresh after a certain time upon being triggered.”

“That’s quite nice.”

Cao Xing nodded silently.

Then, he took out another golden skill book and clapped his hands together to learn it.

At that moment, he felt a massive amount of memories flooding into his mind, taking a full minute or two to digest.

[Successfully learned the skill: [Extreme Ice Origin]…]

Upon seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing opened his eyes.

He then raised his magic wand, starting to condense a terrifying frost ice aura.

The surrounding temperature suddenly dropped by many degrees.

The next moment, this mass of frost ice aura was absorbed into Cao Xing’s body.

[Successfully cast the skill [Extreme Ice Origin]. Armor +100. Influenced by the talent [Eternal Power], the skill has become permanent.]

…

As expected, [Extreme Ice Origin] also became a permanent state.

Centered on Cao Xing himself, a series of white frost waves emanated within a five-meter radius.

Even every time he moved, a thick layer of white frost would appear on the ground.

The temperature plummeted abruptly, dropping by ten to twenty degrees.
