For those present, breaking through to the Yellow rank was already an incredible feat.

No one dared to have too great of an extravagant hope. However, Xu Zongyi's heart was on edge, because he felt that this wasn't all.

"You want it to break through to the green rank?" When Xu Xindie saw his burning gaze, she immediately guessed what was going on.

"Naturally." Xu Zongyi felt that this situation was worth a try. Previously, he had the diluted Heaven-Cleansing Primordial Water to lay a solid foundation for the Mind Gathering Grass.

"Mm. If I can break through to Green rank, I should have a chance to win." Xu Xindie looked at the Mind Gathering Grass in front of her and was very confident. From the records of the Water Melting Ceremony, there was indeed room for improvement. She paused for a moment and then said: "With my understanding of Heaven Breaker, I will spare no expense to make you lose first place."

"After all, the difference between our statuses is very big. He has his own methods, so I can only continue to work hard. Only by doing so can I become an outstanding person." Xu Zongyi did not think that he had surpassed Xu Tianyi.

If Xu Zhengdao did not stand up for him, he would have fallen into eternal damnation. Even if he could die here, his future life would not be so easy.

Xu Zhengdao could not stand up for him for the rest of his life.

Therefore, he had to hurry up and grow, otherwise, he would be suppressed to the point where he would not be able to breathe in the future. It was just as Xu Xindie had said, she would not let him go.

"If there's anything you need, just say it." Xu Xindie was willing to help him. After all, she also wanted to win.

"I want a higher purity Spring Water." Xu Zongyi was very direct.

"Yes, I do have some." Xu Xindie did not refuse. She looked at the jar in Xu Zongyi's hand and asked, "Are you trying to lure it in?"

"Thank you very much." Xu Zongyi felt grateful in his heart, because he knew how precious the spring water of a withered tree was. Even if it was diluted, only Xu Xindie's ancestor, the Xuan Ancestor, was able to give her such a high level of water source because she was one of the big shots of the Xu family.

The snake blood inside the jar was mixed with the spring water.

The vicious beasts' blood essence was different from that of the water source. Apart from being used as a mixture, there were other things to be added in order to neutralize it. Once the amount was reduced, perhaps it would be too much.

Lightly, the effect would be greatly reduced. Heavily, it would be directly wasted, and thus, it would be detrimental to the vegetation.

Xu Zongyi discovered that his earthenware pot seemed to be able to neutralize most of the water sources and turn them into water. This was already much stronger than many of the other farmhouse disciples.

His good fortune had been appraised by the mysterious grandpa, so he had made a bold attempt.

Very quickly, the terrine was filled with snake blood and spring water.

Xu Zongyi kept it within his body, and after seven days of transformation, he would then be irrigated. The effects would be much better, and the Spirit Concentrating Grass was currently absorbing the blood that had previously been poured.

Planting was a gradual process, and it didn't matter how great the good fortune was, it couldn't be done overnight.

In the next seven days, the disciples from the various academies would use their own methods to grow a few pieces of Spirit Gathering Grass, hoping that they would be able to transform it as quickly as possible.

Due to the limited ability of each person, they could only cultivate a few dozen plants, but that was enough for them.

Xu Zhengdao stood to the side. He didn't care about the merit points, fearing that more beasts would invade. Thus, he set up some defenses and began patrolling the Heart Rejuvenation Valley.

From time to time, he would chat with Xu Zongyi and impart him some of his combat experience.

In the past few days, Xu Zongyi did not waste any time as the folly sword in his hand became more and more compatible with him. Even though he wanted to break through to the realm of drawing energy into his bones, he had never been able to grasp the key point and always felt that no matter what, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth could not enter his bones.

Even if he was waving his foolish sword, exhausting a large amount of his vital energy and blood to attempt an attack, it all ended in failure.

"You need not be too anxious. Naturally, a breakthrough with a full body of water is the best." Xu Xindie understood him and wanted to become stronger quickly so that she could protect herself.

Xu Zongyi could only helplessly accept this. Every day, in addition to exhausting his vital energy and blood and breathing in the energy of heaven and earth, he would observe the changes in the Spirit Gathering Grass and study the [Water Melting Ceremony] with Xu Xindie.

In the past few days of watering, the nourishment for the grass was continuously being nourished. Without any surprise, the grass would soon break through to the green level.

Xu Zhengdao came from the Winter Court and did not have much interest in the Water Melting Ceremony. However, he was still a bystander and thus had some benefits after all.

Xiao E lacks the ability to grow this stuff, but she has arranged everyone's lives in a neat way. Every meal has delicious food, but there is one thing that worries her so much.

The little black dog that Xu Zongyi had brought back was something she was extremely willing to give directly to a Spirit Condensation expert like a snake. One must know that this meat was quite expensive.

However, the little black dog was frowning with a disdainful look on its face. It didn't even bother to smell the scent.

However, every time Xiao E cooked a big pot of rice, she would be beside him, wagging her tail and sticking out her tongue.

Xiao E felt that she could use the firewood much faster than usual. The temperature seemed to be a little out of control, but she was able to adjust it in time so that everyone could eat the Snake Meat Congee that helped them cultivate.

"Zong Yi, look at that little black dog you brought back. It's been several days already and I've fed it all kinds of meat. Even if it doesn't eat it, what should we do?" Little E hugged it and came to look for Xu Zongyi.

A few days ago when she saw him at the side of the grass field, she didn't dare to disturb him.

"Huh?" Only now did Xu Zongyi remember this little fellow. It jumped down from Little AoE's embrace and sat down next to him.

"Woo woo …" It had an innocent expression, as if it didn't like the food.

"Where's the snake porridge?" And you don't eat either? " Xu Zongyi was somewhat surprised.

Xiao E shook her head and said, "It doesn't eat anything. It looks like it's not lean from hunger. Don't you need to eat?"

"So what do you want to eat?" Xu Zongyi stroked the little black dog's head.

At this moment, the little black dog stuck out its butt and pulled out a pile of feces. There were traces of black flames burning on its butt.

By the side, Xu Xindie and Xu Zhengdao were also stunned by this scene.

"Don't tell me! Was it a calamity? " Xu Zhengdao's eyes lit up. This was something that many of the experts of the Xu family did not wish to see. His voice was trembling.

"The natural food for disaster is fire. It does not eat flesh and blood. The higher the quality of fire, the more powerful it would be. The excrement that it would bring out would be nourishment that all the strong farmers would want, and could even nurture the soil." Xu Xindie was also very excited. After a pause, she said: "It's very possible that the small calamity had disappeared, which is why it attracted that day's great calamity. It was so violent!"

Xu Zongyi was a little doubtful. If this little calamity had happened right in the middle of the forest, then he should have been able to find it. However, what Xu Xindie said wasn't impossible.

"Like I said, why have you spent your firewood so quickly these past few days? So it's all because of you, little scoundrel." Xiao E sighed. She never thought that she would be fortunate enough to meet such a legendary beast.

"It seems like he's following you." Xu Zhengdao watched as Little Charmer Xu Zongyi sat down next to him, not wanting to move a single step away.

"A man's wealth is his own fault." Xu Zongyi looked at the two as his heart trembled. He obviously wanted it, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to protect it. "Is it a good thing that you're following me around in this little calamity?"

Beside them, it was clear that Xiao E had considered this as well, but she didn't say anything.

"A calamity is originally an ominous berserk beast. Indeed, if someone wants to deal with you, they will indeed use this matter as an example." Xu Xindie thought for a moment, then sighed: "Once a wild beast like this recognizes its master, it will not shift. I also want it very much, but now that it has recognized you, I can't take it either."

If Xu Xindie got into a fight with the Xu family, she would definitely be groomed by the Xu family. There wouldn't be any problems. If it was owned by different people, the result would be completely different.

"You secretly hid it. Right now, no one knows its true identity. If you keep it in the Scripture Hall, no one will discover it." Xu Zhengdao's suggestion made him envious, but just like what Xu Xindie had said, they did not have a chance: "When you grow stronger or show enough potential, they will not be able to do anything to you, as long as you do not break the clan rules."

"Fine." Xu Zongyi sighed softly. He didn't know how many people wished for him to be like this, but he felt as though he was treading on thin ice, afraid that he would harm it because he was too weak.

"You don't need to think too much. As long as you return to the Scripture Hall, if anyone really finds out, just say that it was Xu Changping who tamed it. No one would dare to say anything. The guardians are good protectors." Xu Xindie didn't want him to think too much about it. As long as he could become the personal disciple of the guardian, Prime Minister Xu, he would be able to display amazing talent.

"Understood." Xu Zongyi thanked him in his heart. If not for Xu Zhengdao and Xu Xindie's guidance, who knew how many detours he would have had to take. More importantly, they were both sincerely helping him from the bottom of their hearts.

In the past few days, the sh * t that the little black dog had pulled out had become the main primer for the fertilizer mixture of Xunxin Butterfly. It could greatly enhance the nurturing of the Memory Grass and was of great help to them.

Knowing that it was the identity of a calamity, Xiao E burned even more firewood every day. Furthermore, she would choose the best quality firewood to cook, and the little calamity stealthily absorbed it so that no one else would discover it.

Everyone was engrossed in cultivating the thought grass. Normally, no one would be able to see it. The logistics were all unknown, and very few people noticed it. For Xiao E, it was just right.

Although everyone knew of its existence, they all thought that it was only an ordinary little black dog.

On the morning of the seventh day, the Spirit Gathering Grass that was being cultivated was the first to enter the green product.

The disciples who had been wholeheartedly training had all gained something. It wasn't until nightfall that the entire area where the Mourning Grass was located began to glow with a concentrated green light.

There were a total of 400,000 contribution points, of which 280,000 belonged to Xu Zongyi. Xu Xindie had also received 80,000 contribution points, and the rest were distributed to the other disciples.

Now, Xu Zongyi had seven hundred and five thousand achievement points with him.

"Normally speaking, these achievement points can give you first place, but with my understanding of Xu Tianyi, he shouldn't let you get first." Xu Zhengdao was not optimistic. He felt that there was still some danger.

"It doesn't matter. I want to see if I can help these Spirit Gathering Grass break through to the green rank." Xu Zongyi wanted to do his best as well. His eyes were burning hot, and he should strike while the iron was hot.

"This time, I estimate that our total number of achievement points will not be able to compare with them. However, if Zong Yi is able to obtain first place, that would be pretty good as well." Xu Xindie smiled. No matter what, she had to take one of them: "If you want to see it, what if you succeed?"
