Cultivating with Symbiosis Panel

Potato Flood Dragon Mountain.

——This mountain used to be a nameless little hill, but once it was chosen as the experimental field for Potato Flood Dragon, it suddenly gained its own name.

Before Li Ye arrived, he worried whether something had gone wrong with the Potato Flood Dragon, but the scene before him after emerging from the starlight left him stunned.

This mountain, and all the water series upon it, were actually densely populated with Potato Flood Dragons. Even though he could no longer sense any excess spiritual qi, the Potato Flood Dragons were growing ever more lushly.

Even Profound Crystal Potato Flood Dragon Algae were crawling everywhere.

It was simply… shocking.

Because there were indeed too many.

"Why are there so many…"

With a sweep of his divine sense, Li Ye discovered that from the initial two Potato Flood Dragon Vines he planted, they had exploded to one hundred and twenty vines, with the derived Profound Crystal Potato Flood Dragon Algae and the Potato Beads they produced visible everywhere.

Ignoring the dense and somewhat eerie Potato Flood Dragon Vines and Profound Crystal Potato Flood Dragon Algae, this place was practically a natural granary!

One could easily grab a whole bunch of food with just a casual reach.

No need for processing, you could eat them directly.

Given the current situation, this experimental field turned out unexpectedly successful, confirming that Potato Flood Dragons could grow and reproduce in the outside world, and even more abundantly than within the cave mansion.

However, since he had been away for quite some time, he still needed to ask Li Sui to figure out what exactly happened here.

So he sent out a Sound Transmission Talisman, while leisurely wandering around, carefully observing the growth of the Potato Flood Dragons, the taste of the Potato Flood Dragon flesh, the structure of its spiritual power...

It didn't take long for Li Sui to arrive in a hurry.

"Taoist Friend Li!"

He spoke to Li Ye: "I've been keeping records of the situation here, here's the jade scroll of the records, have a look."

Li Sui handed a jade scroll to Li Ye.

Li Ye took the jade scroll and looked at it, his expression becoming somewhat strange:

"Are you saying that the Potato Flood Dragon Vines here grow better without spiritual qi compared to when spiritual qi is abundant?"

——The jade scroll detailed the growth changes of the Potato Flood Dragons over this period along with visual records.

Initially, Li Sui indeed transported some natural spiritual qi occasionally, according to the arrangement with Li Ye, to support the growth of these Potato Flood Dragon Vines.

But later the situation began to change.

Those Potato Flood Dragon Vines started to absorb the surrounding spiritual qi and form bead-like structures, slowly modifying the surrounding environment, leading to an explosive growth on the spiritually deprived land.

Simply put, the spiritual qi that was originally scattered across the earth was stored by them as reserve spiritual qi, and it was on this collected spiritual qi-laden soil that they grew wildly.

Growing into the sight Li Ye was seeing now.

This was indeed quite strange.

Because their "mother plant", which was bound to the Profound Water Flood Dragon, the Kansheng Potato, was a type of Primordial Spirit Plant with some requirements for spiritual qi.

Without spiritual qi, they cannot grow rapidly, cannot reproduce offspring, and might even directly wither.

But now the situation was such that the descendants of the Profound Water Flood Dragon and Kansheng Potato abandoned the spiritually abundant land and even utilized the "Flood Dragon" to control the concentration of spiritual qi, creating a habitat with depleted spiritual qi.

"Indeed peculiar."

"Allow me to think."

Li Ye sat down casually somewhere with the jade scroll, quietly pondering, recalling the sect records about Kansheng Potato and Profound Water Flood Dragon.

If we must say, it's the inherent nature of the "potato" species.

According to the records of the Four Seasons Sect, they aren't particular about soil quality, no matter how barren the land is, once planted, a harvest is certain.

During the few major disasters in the sect's early years, the Four Seasons Sect sent various types of potato spirit plants everywhere, sustaining the basic livelihood needs of common people.

Truth be told, potatoes aren't suitable as a staple food, consuming them in excess could lead to stomach acidity, moreover, during those famine years, too many people grew weary of consuming various potato types.

Indeed people grew tired of them.

Although potato spirit plants did help them through the tough times, after the disasters ended and the Four Seasons Sect gradually introduced more crops, potatoes became more of an "auxiliary food."

"So to say, this might have activated an instinct for growing in barren soil."

"Hmm, could it be that my previous notion of providing more spiritual power was actually a burden for them."

Li Ye mumbled thoughtfully.

If they truly awakened the ability to grow without excessive spiritual qi while preserving their original taste and spiritual power structure.

That would indeed be remarkable.

The flesh of the Potato Flood Dragon and the Potato Beads from the Profound Crystal Potato Flood Dragon Algae, even upon consumption, won't cause stomach acidity.

Thinking of this, he quickly reviewed the Enlightened Race's taste evaluations and physical change records regarding the Potato Flood Dragon—this signifies one of the experimental field's purposes.

The Enlightened Race themselves have strong control over their bodies, if consuming Potato Flood Dragon flesh and Profound Crystal Potato Flood Dragon Algae had harmful effects on the body, they would certainly notice immediately.

Fortunately, Li Ye combed through these records, from middle-aged individuals in their hundreds to children of a few years old, the entire Enlightened Race had no negative comments about this item.

——This certainly wouldn't be the Enlightened Race intentionally posting "good reviews." If this matter was a sham by the Enlightened Race, leading to mishaps in subsequent spreading, they would undoubtedly be extremely unlucky.

"This means it can be tried for spreading externally."
