Spiritual Energy Revival: Transform Into a Divine Phoenix, Automatically Upgrade

187: Chapter 187 Jianghai CityAlthough the mass production of spirit rice is not high, it is extremely nutritious. It can absorb spiritual energy from the air and store it in the rice grains. Consuming it long-term can improve one’s physique and has huge benefits for the human body.

Although it does not store much spiritual energy, and compared to naturally grown spirit fruit, the effect of storing spiritual energy is far inferior, its advantage lies in the ability to be artificially planted and mass-produced, making it quite a significant wealth and precious resource.

Moreover, Jianghai City plans to provide this spirit rice specifically to students in the city’s schools. After all, Jianghai City had long determined that students in schools are the main force of the spiritual energy cultivation system, and all resources related to spiritual energy are prioritized for the young.

Because the concentration of spiritual energy outside the city is much higher than inside the city, and the environment is more conducive to the growth of spirit rice, Jianghai City planted the spirit rice in the outskirts of the city, which is guarded by the city’s military.

To their surprise, after the spirit rice that had been planted for several months matured, it was snatched away by monsters from the wild!

”That monster was extremely powerful. It killed our squad of soldiers guarding the spirit rice within minutes, ate all the spirit rice, and then disappeared.”

”This resource of spirit rice is also very important to us. Long-term consumption of that spirit rice can improve a person’s physique and enhance their potential.”

”What should we do? The monsters born from the demon primordial stone have run to the outskirts of the city, and they haven’t gone far away. It seems they have realized that the Ancient Divine Phoenix is just a projection and are lingering around the city, coveting us...”

”Anyway, spirit rice cannot be planted in the wild, but the effect of planting spirit rice inside the city is too small—”

”Why not go and talk to the Ancient Divine Phoenix? Its huge habitat in the wild was built by us, so it should agree to our request...”

The leaders in the conference room spoke up to this point and, by unspoken agreement, looked at a beautiful figure sitting in the corner.

That’s right!

The territory of the Ancient Divine Phoenix is at least several hundred miles, so a few acres of farmland is simply a drop in the ocean!

Yu Weiyue, who was being watched by many leaders, saw her beautiful, delicate face change.

”Damn it! You aren’t going to ask me to go to the wild, are you?! Why don’t you guys go?!”

Her face darkened, she complained inwardly, and finally looked at Mayor Lin with a pleading gaze.

In the conference room, Mayor Lin, who was sitting at the head of the table, tapped his fingers on the tabletop and then spoke.

”Spirit rice is very important to our Jianghai City. It is a precious resource and wealth, and even more so an indispensable material resource for the young population, who are the main body of the spiritual energy cultivation system. So, I will have to trouble you, Little Yu. Please take a trip to Divine Phoenix Mountain outside the city.”

”Okay...”

Yu Weiyue said helplessly, feeling a bit scared in her heart. Now, the Ancient Divine Phoenix has mutated and evolved once again, and its appearance has undergone earth-shaking changes; it is completely different from before!

Who knows if its temperament will change drastically...

But she could not refuse. The reason she was able to attend the Jianghai City leadership meeting at such a young age was because her duty was to go to the wild and negotiate with the Ancient Divine Phoenix.

This was her job responsibility, and at the same time, for the sake of her future political achievements, she would not give up on going to the outskirts of Divine Phoenix Mountain.

The next day, she took a Jianghai City helicopter and flew toward the wild.

When the helicopter landed on Divine Phoenix Mountain, Yu Weiyue immediately felt that the concentration of spiritual energy in the surrounding area had increased by a large margin, making her body feel comfortable.

The surrounding white mist of spiritual energy was the densest she had ever seen, just like the thick fog in spring.

”Compared to the spiritual energy in the city... the spiritual energy at the peak of Divine Phoenix Mountain is simply a fairyland!”

Without her needing to use the Spirit Energy Breathing Technique, as she breathed, the highly dense spiritual energy entered her body, making her feel warm.

”My physical fitness is slowly improving!”

The excitement flowing in her heart offset much of her fear of the Ancient Divine Phoenix.

She walked toward the depths of the mountain peak.

Although the surrounding white mist somewhat affected Yu Weiyue’s vision, she could still clearly distinguish the location of the Ancient Divine Phoenix, Ye Yang.

Because the palpitation coming from that location was the strongest, and at the same time, there was a hint of a fiery feeling.

After Yu Weiyue approached this huge creature in the white mist, the surrounding high temperature made her break out in a sweat, and her delicate body was already soaked.

Moreover, she widened her eyes, looking in disbelief at the huge creature in front of her with fiery red, gorgeous colors and long feathers on its tail. A feeling of nobility and self-insignificance filled her heart.

This image was really too similar to the creatures in the myths and legends of their Great Xia Kingdom!

She blurted out instantly.

”Phoenix!”

Ye Yang lowered his head, and a pair of phoenix eyes, devoid of emotion and slightly cold and aloof, looked down at the human in front of him who was not even the size of his sharp claws.

”It’s been quite a few months since I’ve seen a human...”

”I am really getting more and more used to this non-human identity and life...”

He sighed in his heart, and then a voice came out.

”Humans from Jianghai City have come to find me—what is the matter?”

Although he did not use any emotion in his words, the mental pressure brought by his size almost caused Yu Weiyue to fall to the ground.

However, since he did not attack her at the beginning, Yu Weiyue felt relieved in her heart.

”Lord Divine Phoenix, we need a small piece of land in your territory to plant spirit rice...”

”Spirit rice?”

Ye Yang’s heart moved, and he thought to himself.

”It should be a planting product invented by humans, right? But why come to me for this trivial matter?”

He looked at Yu Weiyue, who was looking at him respectfully and expectantly, then shook his head and refused coldly.

”I refuse. Humans of Jianghai City, leave here.”

Yu Weiyue’s delicate face froze, and she asked in confusion.

”May I ask, Lord Divine Phoenix, why is that?”

”For you who possess a territory of several hundred miles, a few acres of land is like one feather among the many feathers on your body...”

”You are right, but so what?”

Ye Yang interrupted Yu Weiyue’s words, and the golden pupils in his phoenix eyes looked at Yu Weiyue in front of him with a cold light.

”What obligation and responsibility do I have to help you humans? Doesn’t your Great Xia Kingdom have a saying, ’Those who are not of our race must have a different heart’? This is also what I want to say.”

Little White Fox Ah Li, who had been silently playing on her phone on the side, heard the commotion here. A fierce yet cute expression appeared on her cute fox face, and she bared her teeth at Yu Weiyue.

Sensing the cold edge in Ye Yang’s huge golden pupils, combined with the actions of the Nine-tailed Little White Fox next to him, Yu Weiyue’s body trembled, and she hurriedly said!

”Lord Divine Phoenix! It’s a misunderstanding! This is just a request from us humans of Jianghai City, there is absolutely no other meaning!”

After shouting this, that feeling of being watched by a predator and having a sharp edge at her back finally disappeared...

”I’m sorry, Lord Divine Phoenix, for disturbing you... I’ll leave right now.”

”If you want me to agree to this small request, that’s fine, as long as your Jianghai City can pay a reward that moves me—”

”Ah?!”
