The Billion-Value Lands Are Just For Farming

C562 – The Celestial Peach Is Ripe

​Su Ming reached out and felt something soft and furry. It was squirming pleasantly under his touch. His heart leapt with joy. Could this be one of those mystical spirit beasts often found in fantasy novels, essentially a pet?

Good heavens, he already had a maid. Wait, no, that wasn’t right. He had a housekeeper, and now a pet would be the perfect addition!

​Without hesitation, Su Ming pulled the object out, and as he did, a brilliant light flashed. Incredible, was this the glow of a discovered treasure?

But as the light faded, Su Ming took a closer look and was left speechless.

Damn it!

He was on the verge of losing his temper.

In his hands, he held a tattered, fluffy stuffed toy, its cotton innards peeking through the worn fabric. It had been moving because of a tiny motor trembling inside.

“Damn it all! You said this was your treasury? Why does your treasury have such junk? Are you a treasury or a junkyard?!”

Su Ming felt like he was about to spit blood.

He had hoped for something valuable, but this was the outcome?

Was this some kind of joke?

After a moment of frustrated foot-stomping, Su Ming resigned himself to the reality. Fine, the System was in charge, and whatever it said, went.

No matter, he thought. With his luck, if it didn’t work out this time, he still had four more chances!

​On his second attempt, Su Ming selected a box. Inside, he found a pencil, just an ordinary 2B pencil.

Was this some sort of insult?

For his third try, he picked a spherical object. Upon inspection, it turned out to be nothing more than a plain crystal ball.

The fourth time, Su Ming hesitated before choosing a tiny object. It was a nail clipper.

Now down to his last chance, Su Ming took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, invoking the luck of the European King. This time, he was sure his fortune would defy the odds!

With determination, he reached in again and immediately felt something oddly familiar. Without a second thought, he pulled it out and looked closely. Lo and behold, it was a scroll!

​Skill!

It was a skill scroll!

Su Ming burst into laughter. After all, he had managed to draw a scroll this time. Even if it was just a skill for flattery, he was eager to learn it!

He couldn’t let this opportunity slip away, could he?

Without a second thought, Su Ming unfurled the scroll. A familiar glow swept over him, followed by a voice in his head.

“Ding! Congratulations, Host, you’ve acquired the Divine Level carving skill! Would you like to learn it?”

Carving skill?

Absolutely!

Why hold onto it if he wasn’t going to learn it?!

Su Ming immediately chose to learn the skill.

A warm sensation quickly spread through his mind. He closed his eyes and stood still for a solid minute.

When he finally opened his eyes, Su Ming had become a top-tier master sculptor. Looking around, he felt an irresistible impulse to carve anything he saw, be it brick or stone.

Though he was keen to start carving, he didn’t have a knife on hand. That would have to wait.

Su Ming then converted the remaining items into points.

He netted a total of 200 points. Maybe it was because the items he had were rather worthless.

Since there were no Level Three animals in the warehouse at the moment, Su Ming wasn’t in a rush. He’d wait until after the evening refresh.

Before long, Su Ming made his way to the field.

There was a plot of land, about an acre in size, with a solitary Celestial Peach Tree in the center.

While both were Level Three crops, this Celestial Peach Tree was clearly special.

The tree was towering and grand, with leaves that shimmered in gold. Its surface was laced with transparent veins through which streaks of golden light could be seen coursing.

The tree bore a single peach, exuding a delicate fragrance. Su Ming approached and inspected the peach, confirming it was ripe.

Though the Celestial Peach’s lineage had been diluted over 100 generations, it still retained a hint of the Heavenly Court’s essence.

It was, after all, a divine tree!

Su Ming inhaled deeply and exhaled slowly, then carefully reached out and gently plucked the peach from the tree.

The peach, although shaped like its smaller kin, was as large as a watermelon.

And it was significantly heavier, weighing at least 100 pounds. Thankfully, Su Ming’s enhanced strength made it manageable, though it was still a hefty load.

“Damn it, I’m lucky it was me. Anyone else might have just tossed it aside. What kind of peach is this, anyway? Made of iron? Why is it so darn heavy?”

Su Ming resisted the urge to take a bite. If it really were made of iron, his teeth would’ve been history.

“Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained a mutated Celestial Peach!”

“Ding! This item is quite special. Host has two choices.”

“One: Eat it directly, and it will significantly enhance the Host’s various abilities!”

“Two: Discard the flesh and open the pit. There will be a surprise inside! If the Host eats the flesh, the pit will become an ordinary pit!”

Upon hearing the notification in his mind, Su Ming pondered deeply.

Eating it, as the System suggested, would greatly enhance his abilities.

All abilities…

That meant his strength, speed, vision, hearing, and even intelligence would all see improvement!

It sounded incredibly appealing!

But the second option was far too tempting!

Even though he had a few Celestial Peach seeds on hand, the System had just made it clear that this particular Celestial Peach had mutated due to his extraordinary luck. The others likely wouldn’t mutate and would produce ordinary fruit.

“Screw it, I’m going for it. You never know, a bike might just turn into a motorcycle!”

“Great effort yields miracles!”

Without another word, Su Ming threw the peach on the ground, strode into the warehouse, grabbed an axe, and swung it down with all his might.

“Crack!”

A crisp sound echoed.

Su Ming was dumbfounded. The axe, which he had recently bought for its quality at the hardware store, was now ruined, its blade chipped.

And the Celestial Peach? Completely intact!

Damn it!

Su Ming really felt like cursing. So much for giving me the option to eat it. How am I supposed to eat this, am I some kind of iron-jawed hero?

“Master, that’s not how you open it.”

“Since this Celestial Peach is bound to the Master, it cannot be opened by external forces. The Master can simply break it open with his hands.”

Just then, Yuvyuv chimed in with a reminder in his mind. Su Ming had an epiphany and tossed the axe aside.

Su Ming crouched down, his hands pressing against the Celestial Peach, and with a gentle twist, he pried it open.

Wow!!!

Su Ming couldn’t help but shout in astonishment, “Oh my goodness!

My fourth uncle’s wife, my second aunt, and my third aunt’s mother-in-law!

This is just too much…”
