Miracle Farmer with Special Abilities

"Is there really a city made of gold?" Chen Chaoyue was the first to ask, his voice tinged with skepticism.

At his words, Zhang Bin and Ma Rufei both turned to look at Betty. Even Elsa and Marian perked up their ears in astonishment.

Clearly, the search for the City of Gold was a major secret within the Phoenix Organization, one they were not privy to.

Betty first made everyone swear not to reveal what she was about to say. Only after they all agreed did she speak with passionate fervor, "Earth has a 4.6-billion-year history, and a great deal of evidence suggests that several ancient civilizations once existed here. People have unearthed items from coal mines that rival modern technology, and others have excavated jewelry and treasures from solid rock. Many ancient ruins have been discovered around the world, some of which have even become deadly forbidden zones. And yes, the City of Gold truly exists. A treasure map obtained from one such ruin marks its location and explains that it is, in fact, a city built entirely of gold. The civilization of that era was called the Golden Civilization, and they could even convert gold into energy. The problem is, the treasure map is incomplete. Furthermore, the Earth's terrain has undergone immense changes over countless years, making the city extremely difficult to find."

Waves of shock surged through Zhang Bin's heart. He had initially been listening as if it were just a fairy tale, but when he heard that the Golden Civilization could convert gold into energy, he realized it wasn't a story. It had to be real, because gold could indeed be converted into vast amounts of energy—the kind used to activate Interstellar Teleportation Arrays.

A Golden Civilization really existed on Earth? And they could convert gold into energy?

If so, their technological level must not have been that far behind the Xuanwu Star People.

In that case, how did the Golden Civilization disappear?

At that moment, Zhang Bin grew incredibly eager to find the City of Gold. It might hold treasures far greater than just gold.

Ma Rufei and Chen Chaoyue, however, were openly dismissive.

"Gold converted into energy? Who are you kidding?"

"That's got to be a lie. Don't waste our time."

"We don't know if it's a lie or not," Betty said with a smile. "However, the Phoenix Organization has found more data and evidence supporting the existence of the City of Gold. Once we pinpoint the location, would you be interested in joining the expedition?"

"The moment you confirm the location, let me know. I'll go with you," Zhang Bin agreed without hesitation. How could he possibly miss an opportunity like this?

Ma Rufei and Chen Chaoyue immediately chimed in with their agreement, though their goal wasn't adventure—it was hitting on women. An expedition with the Phoenix Organization meant a chance to meet more beauties. They had just learned that the Phoenix Special Ability Organization wasn't limited to Americans; it had members from all over the world, and it was supposedly full of gorgeous women. The leader of the Phoenix Organization, in particular, was said to be a peerless, once-in-a-generation beauty.

It stood to reason that a woman who dared to name her organization after the Phoenix would possess the beauty of the queen of all birds, not to mention unfathomable strength. Zhang Bin sensed that even Betty might have other special abilities and terrifying power. If it came down to a true life-or-death battle, he wasn't completely confident he could defeat her. Moreover, women who constantly walked the line between life and death naturally had their own unique survival skills and abilities that could not be underestimated.

Now, however, Betty had been thoroughly conquered by Zhang Bin in bed, so much so that she had even revealed the secret of the City of Gold. A fatal struggle between them was out of the question.

For the next two days, they all had fun in the valley.

Besides enjoying himself, Zhang Bin also took the time to analyze the plant samples Xiao Qian had secretly brought him. The results were significant; he identified more than a dozen herbs suitable for alchemy. What thrilled him most was the discovery of a crucial plant: the Fu Leaf Tree. It was nearly identical to the Fu Leaf Tree on Xuanwu Star. Its leaves were yellow and rectangular, looking just like sheets of talisman paper.

Taking an opportunity to slip away, Zhang Bin soared into the sky and headed for the place where the Fu Leaf Trees grew. It was a valley saturated with the thick smell of sulfur, likely due to an underground volcano. The Fu Leaf Trees grew everywhere, filling the entire valley. Most were as thick as a person's embrace and stood over ten meters tall, bearing countless yellow Talisman Leaves.

"Hahaha!" Zhang Bin laughed with excitement. "With these Talisman Leaves, I can try to craft some special talismans. This gives me a fighting chance in the World King of Gamblers competition. Otherwise, I'd have no confidence at all."

He happily began picking the Talisman Leaves, choosing ones that were more than ten years old. Indeed, the leaves of a Fu Leaf Tree did not fall off easily. The older the Talisman Leaf, the better its quality, and the higher the success rate for crafting talismans. He picked at least tens of thousands of Talisman Leaves before he finally stopped. He even dug up a few small Fu Leaf Trees and stored them in his Space Ring, planning to cultivate them at Mantou Ridge.

After all, the Fu Leaf Tree was far too useful. It is indispensable for my cultivation.

He then personally taught Xiao Qian how to test the medicinal properties of plants, leaving the Medicine Testing Instrument with her. He also taught her the properties of the ingredients needed for important elixirs like the Evergreen Pill and the Overlord Body Pill. This way, Xiao Qian could test things on-site without wasting time. Most importantly, his space rings were nearly full of various important medicinal herbs that needed to be transplanted, so testing them locally was the only option. Zhang Bin left both space rings with Xiao Qian, keeping only the smallest one for himself—the one he had received as compensation from the Daoyi Sect.

He wasn't worried about Xiao Qian getting into danger. She was very clever and small. Even a cultivator at the Golden Core Realm would find it difficult to capture her in the forest, especially with Hong Ya there to help. Furthermore, since he had the remote for the Array Plate, he could contact Xiao Qian anytime, so he had nothing to worry about.

He returned to the beautiful valley to find that the three beauties and two brutes had already dismantled the tents and loaded them onto the helicopter.

Seeing him return, Betty called out, "Zhang Bin, we're leaving!"

They all boarded the helicopter. Soon, Elsa had it in the air, heading straight for Las Vegas.

Yes, they were escorting the three men to the World King of Gamblers competition. They planned to accompany them for the entire event, as they certainly didn't want to miss such a grand occasion. In fact, any American with free time wouldn't miss the chance to watch the World King of Gamblers competition live.

"Brother Bin, since you're participating in the World King of Gamblers competition, can you give me a tip?" Betty asked, her eyes full of anticipation. "Which King of Gamblers should I place a heavy bet on in the side pools?"

Of course, the World King of Gamblers competition had extensive side betting, with many casinos and bookmakers accepting wagers. Clearly, Betty was planning to bet big.

"I'm betting on myself, so you can't go wrong betting on me too," Zhang Bin said with a wicked smile.
