“You need to buy a few Soul-grade Seeds of the Earth Element first,” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ informed him.

“Huh?” Mo Fan almost knocked his jaw on the table. He said, “Are you sure you meant to say ‘a few Soul-grade Seeds?’”

d.a.m.n it, people normally counted fragments of the Soul-grade Seeds in grams! The fragments were a lot more expensive than diamonds, let alone the complete Soul-grade Seeds! A single piece was enough to buy an expensive building. Did Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ lose her common sense after staying in the deep woods for too long!?

“We need material to refine a Heaven-grade Seed. Where else should we get the huge amount of energy from?” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ said.

“So how many Soul-grade Seeds do you need exactly?” Mo Fan asked.

“Around ten!” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ answered.

Mo Fan almost spat his tea out.

“Forget it, I now remember how I almost went bankrupt when Feng Zhoulong told me he could make me stronger. I’m afraid I will never save enough money to afford ten Soul-grade Seeds!” Mo Fan shook his head.

“Why are you so impatient? I haven’t finished!” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ sniffed.

“Don’t bother if you aren’t going to say something practical. How strange, whenever I find something valuable, there is always someone who would guide me down a path of no return, claiming I could be rich in no time with just a little investment… But in the end, I would stay extremely poor. I couldn’t even live luxuriously for a few days,” Mo Fan sighed, mostly to himself.

“You will receive the benefits immediately if you follow my advice. Just buy one Soul-grade Seed for now, the normal kind with a damage amplification of four to six times. It would be better if it has a Domain or some kind of additional effects. It’s a gradual process to refine a Heaven-grade Seed. I’ll help you with the first step of strengthening the Soul-grade Seed,” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ told him.

“Just tell me the exact effects you are after!” Mo Fan replied.

“Find a Soul-grade Seed with a fourfold damage amplification. The first step will improve its damage amplification to six. If you’re lucky, its initially useless additional effects might become stronger too,” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ replied easily.

“Useless additional effects? I’m satisfied as long as it has any additional effects!” Mo Fan had a feeling Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was fooling with him. How was it possible that the owner of a moth farm would know the obscure process of refining a Heaven-grade Seed? Even the best forgemaster in the world would not dare to guarantee they could refine a Heaven-grade Seed!

However, Mo Fan had no idea that the moths that Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ raised had an ability similar to the ability of bees to collect nectar. The moths did not just fly in the woods happily and do nothing for the whole day. They were extremely sensitive to the rare energies scattered around them. This rare energy was like nectar to them. They would slowly gather it and build their nests across the woods. Only Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ knew how to gather the energy from their nests!

Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ had never told anyone her secret. She was afraid that the Research Union would abuse the moths’ ability and turn them into harvesters. After all, there was always a huge demand for Soul Seeds. If they knew the moths could harvest the impure energy in the air, people would greatly abuse their ability!

Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was grateful that Mo Fan’s Fanxue Mountain had provided her and her moths a peaceful home, or she would never have revealed her secret to him. That being said, it also depended on whether Mo Fan was interested in her suggestion or not.

“Can you really refine a Heaven-grade Seed?” Mo Fan asked after giving it more thought.

“Mm, it’s possible based on the number of moths I have,” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ answered firmly.

“My Earth Element has only expanded into a Galaxy. Can it hold the power of a Heaven-grade Seed?” Mo Fan had to ask.

“The Advanced Level is good enough. If you are free, you should visit the city. There are a lot of resources for the Earth Element there. You should buy some of them. The first step won’t evolve the Soul-grade Seed into a Heaven-grade Seed right away, but it will make the Soul-grade Seed stronger than those being sold on the market. If we split the Heaven-grade Seed further into three levels, they will be a Heaven-inferior Seed, Lesser Heaven Seed, and Greater Heaven Seed. The truth is, the same principles apply to the Spirit-grade Seeds and Soul-grade Seeds too, but I’m not sure why the Magic a.s.sociation doesn’t cla.s.sify them further,” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ said.

“What do you mean by inferior, lesser, and greater? Did you come up with the names yourself? I have never heard of them before!” Mo Fan spluttered.

“You should seriously read more books. I didn’t come up with them myself. There are books about them from other countries!” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ responded primly.

Mo Fan was struggling to believe it. He gave Feng Zhoulong, who was a member of the Research Union, a call. Feng Zhoulong was a renowned professor both in and outside the country. Mo Fan would rather trust his academic achievements.

“Old Feng, have you heard of the cla.s.sification of Soul-grade Seeds? Something like, Soul-inferior Seeds, Lesser Soul Seeds, and Greater Soul Seeds?…” Mo Fan asked cautiously.

“Wow, you know a lot, don’t you? The Magic a.s.sociation of the Five Continents is planning to include them in the official index at the end of this year, but you forgot another level, there’s another Pseudo level before the Inferior level. Their cla.s.sification is similar to the levels of a demon creature,” Feng Zhoulong answered instantly.

Mo Fan stared at Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ in disbelief while he was on the call.

To think that a woman who spent her days drying red beans, cooking porridge, and raising moths would know the latest concept that was about to be released!

Mo Fan knew people were still exploring different concepts of magic, but something like a new cla.s.sification of the Spirit-grade Seeds and Soul-grade Seeds would doubtless remain confidential.

“Don’t look at me like that. The academics of other countries have already published the topics before, but the Magic a.s.sociation was too stubborn to accept it. The cla.s.sification should already be in textbooks by now. Isn’t it obvious how Soul Seeds differ greatly, even if they are of the same level?” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ huffed.

“That’s true. So how will you cla.s.sify my Soul-grade Seeds?” Mo Fan was intrigued.

“For your Fire Element, the Calamity Fire mainly depends on Little Flame Belle’s strength, so I can’t say for sure. The other two are most likely Lesser Soul Seeds. The Lightning Tyrant is a Greater Soul Seed,” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ informed him.

“So did you say you can get me a Heaven-Inferior Seed? Not a Pseudo-Heavenly Seed?” Mo Fan’s eyes glittered.

The Lightning Tyrant was Mo Fan’s strongest Soul-grade Seed for now, but the Heaven-Inferior Seed was two levels higher! Wouldn’t that mean his Earth Element was going to be unbeatable?

“Pseudo-Heaven Seed… Yes, there should be another level before the Inferior level. The first step will guarantee you a Heaven-Inferior Seed. If you want it, you have to give me the Fruit of Vow and the petal of the Tianshan Sacred Lotus,” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ said.

“Now? Don’t you dare trick me! I’m seriously worried,” Mo Fan grimaced.

“Now! You will get your Heaven-inferior Seed after you find a Soul-grade Seed… but I want you to swear an oath that you will never tell anyone about this!” Yu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ demanded of him.

“Don’t worry, I will make sure it rots in my stomach forever!”
