Lin Xuanzhi said, “There are day and night in this space. It’s currently morning, but if you come back later, you’ll see the moon too. It’s just that the time here moves faster than that of the outside. One year inside the space equates to only a single day outside. If Ah Hen were to plant spiritual herbs here, he would surely reap a lot.”

“Really?” Yan Tianhen’s eyes lit up.

Lin Xuanzhi smiled and nodded, “The temporal change in a pocket dimension is much different from the outside world.”

Yan Tianhen seemed to be imagining a bright future of making a fortune by planting spiritual herbs.

“This feeling is good!” Yan Tianhen exclaimed excitedly, “However, let’s first clean up the weeds.”

Lin Xuanzhi laughed, “The weeds in this place won’t be so easy to pull out. We have to rely on special grass-swallowing worms.”

Yan Tianhen asked, “How can a grass-swallowing worm be as good as me?”

“If you don’t believe me, try it yourself.”

Yan Tianhen performed the hand seals and began to try uprooting the weeds. He didn’t know whether the weeds had been rooted for too long or whether they were a different type from the outside world, but it took him a lot of effort to pull out just two weeds. In addition, the spiritual Qi in his body had almost been exhausted.

When Yan Tianhen rested for a while and then pulled out the third weed, the weeds that had been pulled out before actually grew out again!

Yan Tianhen touched his head, “How could this happen?”

Lin Xuanzhi laughed, “Time moves faster here so if you pull it, it will be easy for new seeds to break through the ground. There will be no end to it.”

Yan Tianhen sighed and stopped trying. “Let’s go and get some grass-swallowing worms, but the price of them is too expensive. I can’t afford it.”

A grass-swallowing worm was a kind of insect that could replace human labor to devour weeds. This kind of insect was expensive. One insect could easily cost tens of thousands of gold. It often slept on the ground after eating and drinking its fill, plus it only had a short life span of one quarter, so its cost-effectiveness was not too high. At least for some people who specialized in growing spiritual plants, the price of a grass-swallowing worm wasn’t as cheap as the price spent on labor.

Hence, grass-swallowing worms were pretty useless existences; only a few people would buy them.

If Yan Tianhen hadn’t attempted it and found that the weeds in here were really beyond his ability to solve, he wouldn’t be willing to buy grass-swallowing worms at all.

Hearing this, Yan Tianhen’s eyes lit up and he rushed to nod, “If that’s the case, it’ll solve all our problems once and for all. This is really great! Before it’s too late, let’s go and buy some grass-swallowing worms now!”

Since Yan Tianhen said so, how could Lin Xuanzhi refuse him?

So Lin Xuanzhi took Yan Tianhen out of the soul plate’s space and flew them by sword toward the foot of the mountain.
