Chapter 423: Shennong is born
Two real dragons with majestic horns and bodies covered with sparkling golden scales are chasing each other.

Either big or small, visible or invisible.

When it rises, it soars beyond the universe; when it hides, it lurks within the waves.

They are playing, they are frolicking.

But one of the dragons sensed someone peeping at it and couldn't help but turn his eyes away.

It instantly attracted another dragon, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

They all opened their mouths at the same time, gathering the crystal clear and brilliant particles in their throats.

Two dazzling rays of light shot out from his mouth and descended from the sky.

With overwhelming force, we are determined to completely eliminate the peeping Tom in the dark.

what! ! !
In a corner of the human Jiang tribe, a young girl named Jiang An sat up in shock from her stone bed.

He was breathing heavily and his whole body was covered with thick sweat.

His eyes were empty and lifeless, and he only felt comfortable and relaxed when the cool breeze blew in from outside.

Jiang An couldn't help but look back and look around, she breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, and said speechlessly:

“It was just a dream!”

Jiang An didn't take it seriously. After the sun rose, she went hunting and fishing as usual.

But as time went on, his belly gradually swelled up and began to beat faintly.

This caused Jiang An to panic and gradually attracted the attention of other clan members.

Everyone thought it was an evil spirit causing trouble and prepared to burn it alive to avoid bringing misfortune.

But the patriarch of this branch of the Jiang clan couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard Jiang An's explanation.

As if he had thought of something, he suddenly became beaming with joy, and his emotions became more and more excited:
"Dreaming of a divine dragon and having a divine fetus in your belly is a good omen among good omens. It means a saint is born!"

After the tribe leader started to explain, many people in the human race finally felt relieved.

It also allowed Jiang Anshi to save her life and even have food to eat without having to work.

At first, everyone thought that this baby would be born soon.

But no one expected that this baby would be conceived for ten years, which is incredible.

After waiting and waiting, finally on a rainy day, Jiang An felt severe abdominal pain.

With a clear baby cry, a boy named Shennong was born!
He could walk at birth and speak after three days, and his every move was filled with extraordinary power.

This made the Jiang clan leader overjoyed and he gave him generous treatment.

You don't have to work to get food to eat, and eventually live to adulthood without any illness or disaster.

But many members of the tribe were plagued by various diseases, and often a minor illness would take them away.

Not to mention the major plagues and epidemics, whenever people get sick, they die in large numbers.

As a result, Shennong grew up instantly, his mind matured, and he no longer played around every day.

Instead, he began to think about curing his illness, relying on his strong body that had been free of illness since childhood.

Shennong swallowed the weeds on the roadside without any hesitation.

"fine!"

"It has a fire-like property and can cure colds."

Shennong wrote down all the properties and functions of this wild grass.

Then he looked at another one and swallowed it without hesitation.

"It's okay, no, it's poisonous!"

A severe pain came from the abdomen, like a knife cutting, making Shennong sweat profusely.

But with an invisible force, it flows through the limbs and bones throughout the body.

All the severe pain disappeared, and Shennong could finally breathe a sigh of relief:

"This weed has a slow onset of toxicity and must not be used. This must also be noted."

With repeated poison testing, the flowers and plants around the tribe were gradually tested.

What is poisonous and what is not.

Shennong knew exactly what can be eaten, what cannot be eaten, and what can cure diseases.

He also taught his tribe members, allowing many sick tribe members to survive, and his prestige grew. More people lived, more food was eaten, and traditional fishing, hunting and gathering gradually became insufficient.

The old patriarch was very upset and complained more than once, but in the end he had to go into the mountains obediently.

Men are responsible for hunting wild beasts, even monsters with spiritual energy, while women are responsible for gathering.

Despite their best efforts, there is still not enough food, leaving the elderly facing the fate of being abandoned.

Shennong saw it and was worried, but he didn't have any good solution.

On this day, Shennong returned from testing poisons in the surrounding mountains and added another new species.

But before he could return to the tribe, he saw a little bird flying over his head.

Shennong wanted to catch the bird in his hand and roast it back in the tribe.

The bird was startled and dropped a colorful and crystal clear seed.

The moment the seed touched the soil, it instantly took root and sprouted, growing until it reached waist height.

Seeing this, Shennong no longer cared about the bird in the sky, but instead stared at the plant.

Shennong could see that with such amazing changes, this must be the seed of a spiritual creature.

Now that it has taken root and sprouted and grown so tall, it will definitely be beneficial to take it back.

Shennong was waiting here, as more and more spiritual energy particles gathered.

The fruits gradually gave off a unique fragrance, attracting countless birds.

Shennong drove them away and finally peeled all the fruits at the moment they were ripe.

In an instant, the entire plant turned into ashes, as if all its strength was gathered in the fruit.

Shennong lowered his head and carefully fiddled with the fruits in his hands:

"It turns out that seed is called the Five-Colored Valley, and it belongs to the acquired middle-grade spiritual root."

"One seed can be differentiated into five: rice, millet, sorghum, wheat, and beans."

After checking the specific information, Shennong picked one fruit from each of the five small piles and put it into his mouth.

"It's delicious and tasty, much better than what we eat every day, and it also contains spiritual energy."

"Nice food, and one seed can produce so much if you plant it."

"No one should go hungry anymore!"

At this moment, Shennong was inspired and his eyes were filled with endless divine light.

He returned to the tribe happily and began to teach his people how to plant.

At the beginning, everyone was reluctant, thinking that this new approach would be risky.

But Shennong suppressed his uneasiness about his new position and began to learn how to grow crops.

It’s called planting, but actually it’s just sprinkling. There are no tools anyway, so just press it into the soil.

After all, they are the descendants of acquired spiritual roots. Once buried in the soil, they can gather spiritual energy and take root and sprout.

Since they were so easy to feed, the tribesmen felt relieved and started to busy themselves with other things.

Shennong took care of the site himself and continued to record information about the seeds.

"When planted again, the energy level becomes weaker."

"The essence of these seeds is declining, and the spiritual energy contained within them is getting less and less."

“But the amount of grain that can be grown is increasing, enough to feed everyone.”

“All I can say is that there is no such thing as perfection in the world, and it is fair to say that there are gains and losses.”

Shennong felt a little regretful, maybe it was a good thing to let everyone have enough to eat.

After this, Shennong's prestige increased again, and the old patriarch wanted to pass on the throne again.

But Shennong had no interest at all, and looked into the distance with a determined gaze:

"I will travel to other places and try to record all the plants and fruits."

"So as to prevent other humans from accidentally eating those poisonous plants and dying tragically."

Hearing this, the old patriarch stopped stopping Shennong and allowed him to realize his wish.
