Classic of Mountains and Seas from the Start: Farming and Retiring Among the Stars

In the year 4172 of the Star Calendar, a cosmic-scale earthquake triggers a spiritual qi revival across the stars. All kinds of spirit tools and cultivation techniques appear in a frenzy, and the people rejoice.

Yun Lan also gets bound to a spirit tool: a battered old book, so shabby that people wouldn’t even use it to prop up a table.

The Federation announces: “Studies show that a person can bind to only one spirit tool in their lifetime.”

Yun Lan: “…”

Forget it. I’ll just take it easy. Taking it easy is the real secret.

Yun Lan spends her days taking it easy, planting crops, admiring flowers, drinking tea, and selling vegetables. Before she knows it, all sorts of bigwigs are showing up at her door!

Mecha Master: “Do you have any more of that cabbage? Give me two heads. I’ll pay a hundred thousand starcoins!”

The Alliance Military Academy’s strongest mecha trooper: “Strawberries! I only want strawberries! Give me a box. I’ll pay a million starcoins! Don’t make me kneel and beg!”

A reserve candidate for an S-rank Allied Forces commander: “Save this kid! Sell me five more apples! If I can’t eat apples soon, my mental powers will go berserk and kill me!!”

Yun Lan: “???”

What is this? I’m just growing crops and selling vegetables. Are you people running a scam?!

An interstellar farming story. The shabby old book is the Classic of Mountains and Seas, set against the backdrop of a spiritual qi revival across the stars.
