OFR – Chapter 70 It was late at night and everyone was asleep.

At this moment, the Nanjing Flower Exhibition Auction had officially come to an end.

The hall was filled with exclamations of wonder, and many were eager to visit Box 6 to see who exactly this mysterious “Mr. Leng” was. However, when they arrived, the staff informed them that Mr. Leng had already left after the auction. This left everyone feeling a bit disappointed at not having glimpsed his true appearance.

Despite coming in low-key and leaving quietly, Mr. Leng had left an indelible mark on the auction, with the boldest and most remarkable display of wealth and power.

Now, many people were wondering, just who was this Mr. Leng?

He appeared out of nowhere, spending billions and winning great glory, but in the moment of his greatest triumph, he quietly departed. The phrase “he leaves without a trace, hiding both his name and identity” perfectly encapsulates this enigmatic figure.

Though the exhibition auction had concluded, the name “Mr. Leng” was deeply imprinted in everyone’s minds, and would linger there for a long time.

It was now past 8 p.m., and the night had grown late…

One hour after the auction ended, Mu Bai returned to his apartment in Shuimo Linju empty-handed. As for the three rare flowers he purchased, after leaving the exhibition, he found a corner without any cameras or people and stored them in his mysterious space.

To buy these three rare flowers, Mu Bai had burned through more than 140 million yuan, effectively spending all the money he had earned. But the mission had been successfully completed.

“Ding! Would the host like to receive the ‘Lavish Spending’ task rewards?”

“Confirm!” Mu Bai nodded.

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for receiving 5,000 virtual coins and unlocking the secondary cultivation function of the mysterious space.”

Small text appeared before him again. After glancing at the rewards for completing the ‘Lavish Spending’ task, Mu Bai nodded in approval. He then locked the door, closed the curtains, and, with a thought, entered the mysterious space.

Mu Bai wanted to see what the highly important secondary cultivation function was all about!

Inside the serene mysterious space, Mu Bai looked at the planting and breeding slots. Now, in addition to the small acceleration icon, there was a new symbol, half-red and half-green.

He knew this must be the secondary cultivation function, so he cautiously tapped the green part of the icon.

“Ding! Currently in normal cultivation mode.”

“Hmm? Green is normal, so the red must be for secondary cultivation,” Mu Bai thought as he tapped the red part of the icon.

Sure enough, after he clicked it, the breeding slot’s transparent color gradually turned light red. At the same time, several lines of small text appeared before Mu Bai’s eyes.

“Ding! The host has activated the secondary cultivation function. This function is crucial for enhancing the quality of plants and animals in the mysterious space. Secondary cultivation removes the double time acceleration effect and replaces it with an enhancement of quality. Only plants and animals rated A-grade or above by the system can undergo secondary cultivation. There is no time limit, and the longer the cultivation, the greater the improvement in quality.”

“Note: Growth cards cannot be used during secondary cultivation.”

After carefully reading the small text for more than a minute, Mu Bai understood the basics of the secondary cultivation function. In simple terms, it allows high-quality plants and animals to evolve into even higher quality.

“Indeed, this is one of the most important features,” Mu Bai nodded. Having spent some time in the rare plant and animal industry, he knew how difficult it was to improve the quality of top-tier specimens. Even raising their quality by half a level could lead to a massive price difference.

For example, rare flowers typically cost between seven and eight million yuan, with the highest being a little over ten million. But for ultra-rare flowers, prices start at over twenty million, and near-perfect specimens are even more valuable.

So, even a small quality improvement could multiply profits.

This feature greatly enhanced the money-making potential of the mysterious space and increased the value of the breeding slots.

“Let’s test it out and see what A-grade or above plants and animals are in the storage.”

With the breeding slots currently vacant, Mu Bai decided to start secondary cultivation with some of the rare plants and animals in the mysterious space.

He first tested the three rare flowers he had purchased today. The “Datang Fengyu” and “Tianyi Lotus” were both rated A+, while the “Ghost Orchid” was rated A++!

It was clear why the Ghost Orchid was more expensive than the other two.

After identifying the ratings, Mu Bai didn’t immediately place the three rare flowers in the breeding slots. Instead, he first took several cuttings from each flower and planted them in the empty plots in the self-sustained field.

Although he knew the survival rate of these rare flowers was low, even if only one-fifth survived, it would be a huge profit.

After finishing the cuttings, Mu Bai placed the three rare flowers into the breeding slots and initiated secondary cultivation.

Next, he checked other rare plants and fish, discovering that only 13 tiger-tailed grasses, the “Zijin Peony,” and the white and red dragonfish had reached A-grade.

As for the rest, including rare “Red Queen” and “Pink Queen” flowers, they didn’t meet the A-grade standard and were rated at B++.

Mu Bai placed the A-grade plants and fish into the breeding slots and started secondary cultivation. Out of the eight breeding slots, seven were now occupied.

He decided to leave the last slot empty for future seedling cultivation.

After completing all this, Mu Bai opened the host interface to review his current stats:

Host: Mu Bai  
Mysterious Space Level: 3, with 8 breeding slots, time flow 40x faster than the outside world  
Virtual Coins: 550  
Silver Coins: 5110  
Storage: One magic die, 201 drops of magic stream water, two rare fish (Red Queen, Pink Queen)  
Breeding Slots: White dragonfish, red dragonfish, Datang Fengyu, Tianyi Lotus, Ghost Orchid, Zijin Peony, and tiger-tailed grass are in secondary cultivation. One slot is currently vacant.  
Self-Sustained Field: Approximately 100 square meters planted with saffron, and about 10 square meters with various flower seedlings.  
Daily Online Spending: None today  
Daily Check-in: Completed. Tomorrow’s check-in reward: 1,000 virtual coins.

“Not bad, the task is complete, and the mysterious space is starting to look like something,” Mu Bai thought as he nodded with satisfaction.

The mysterious space now had a small farm’s worth of rare plants and animals, stocked storage, and seedlings and medicinal herbs growing in the self-sustained field, giving him a sense of security and fulfillment.

With a thought, Mu Bai returned to the living room. He checked his phone and saw a bank notification stating that his balance, which had once been over a billion, now stood at just over 1.7 million.

1.7 million was more than enough for his regular expenses.

By now, it was almost 10 p.m., and Mu Bai was feeling sleepy. He took a hot shower, returned to his bedroom, and crawled into bed.

In the stillness of the night, Mu Bai soon drifted off to sleep.
