After escaping from Black Light Mountain, Chen Sansi returned straight to the Qingxu Sect.
Along the way, he passed several mortal towns.
In the countryside, there were vast farmlands, but the crops grown were not food, but Spiritual Grain.
In recent years, due to the continuous wars on the borders, the consumption of Spiritual Grain has been increasing daily.
Spiritual Grain, as the main raw material for refining Elixir Pills and even some Magic Artifacts, is as important to cultivators as food is to mortals.
Even Nascent Soul cultivators need to regularly consume large amounts of Elixir Pills.
With such massive amounts of Spiritual Grain, the major sects naturally couldn't plant within their own lands, wasting Spirit Veins and land.
Thus, it could only be planted in the mortal world.
When Chen Sansi first arrived at the Sky Water Continent, half of the farmlands were Spiritual Grain, but now it has increased to sixty percent!
Sixty percent per acre!
