Chapter 207: Spirit Grass (Two-in-One, Please Subscribe)

When Hall Master Mo Tu saw Fire Knight Alwin clearly.

He even thought he had received the blessing of the Blood God today, as he had waited for the Holy Son designated by the Sect Leader to run to him without having to do anything at all.

Sensing that the other party only had the cultivation of the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, Hall Master Mo Tu was overjoyed and even sent a secret message to the disciples behind him to take it easy, so as not to accidentally kill the future Holy Son!

And then...

Hall Master Mo Tu discovered that the person who was accidentally killed was actually himself and his men!

Accompanied by a meteorite made of Ice Crystal falling from the sky, it crashed into the Great Canyon and kicked off the battle!

Just as their Incense Divine Power was restrained by the freezing cold, they felt they couldn't even exert seventy or eighty percent of their ten-fold power.

They then witnessed the Fire Phoenix Raging over the Plains from the Fire Knight.

They immediately experienced the taste of a double hell of ice and fire.

The blood-red Ghost God on Hall Master Mo Tu soon vanished into thin air.

And Hall Master Mo Tu's team of Blood God Sect remnants followed suit, screaming as they were accidentally killed on the spot amidst the interweaving of ice and fire.

After collecting the ownerless items of these remnants, Su Ping had Exorcist Mage Yunkong and Fire Knight Alwin carefully patrol the surroundings of the Great Canyon.

After confirming repeatedly that there were no fish that slipped through the net, he let them return to rendezvous.

Afterwards, Su Ping discovered a Bounty Order for himself from Hall Master Mo Tu's Storage Bag.

Only then did he learn that, unknowingly, he had become a candidate for the Holy Son of the Blood God Sect.

Su Ping was naturally dismissive of this.

A path like this Incense Divine Dao, which was barely any different from evil cultivators, was worthy of letting him be the Holy Son?

Even if it were to be the Sect Leader, he wouldn't be willing to take on this mess!

However, that Blood God of the other party did have some strength, so he couldn't afford not to guard against it!

Su Ping was also familiar with the Blood God Sect Secret Technique; he soon found Hall Master Mo Tu's Blood God Talisman, and after breaking it, he discovered several hiding places provided by the Sect Leader of the Blood God Sect and others.

Su Ping memorized these hiding places and recorded them into several Inheritance Jade Slips.

Then, when he rushed to Zhenshou Xiancheng overnight.

He summoned Exorcist Mage Yunkong and had him act as that good Cultivator who does good deeds without leaving a name.

He anonymously delivered these Inheritance Jade Slips to the temple of the Great Golden Light Temple in Zhenshou Xiancheng.

The Abbot in the temple was not surprised by this; every year, he didn't know how many people sent information to the Great Golden Light Temple for various purposes.

This information was a mix of truth and falsehood, and the vast majority was not worth mentioning.

However, after a slight probe with his Divine Sense, he discovered it was the Incense Divine Dao of the Blood God Sect.

The Abbot's expression immediately became serious.

Except for the Ten Directions Sect, all Incense Divine Dao were on the must-kill list named by the Great Golden Light Temple!

The Abbot immediately invited the Elder who was in seclusion in the Temple.

The Elder first performed a simple Secret Technique to confirm that the Dharma Power in the Inheritance Jade Slips was pure and neutral, and definitely not the work of evil cultivators or the Demonic Path.

He was also tempted by the contents of the Jade Slips.

After thinking about it, he still felt it was better to believe it existed than to believe it didn't.

This Elder took his Personal Disciple and soared into the air, heading to the places recorded in the Jade Slips.

…………

Watching as dozens of Golden Light rays flew out of the temple after a short while and headed far away in the direction of the Artifact Heart Sect.

Su Ping felt that the Great Golden Light Temple seemed to value the Blood God Sect even more than he had imagined.

He had originally thought that if he could get the Great Golden Light Temple to help pass information to major sects like the Artifact Heart Sect that were active in the Jinzi Domain, it would be good to add some trouble to the Blood God Sect.

Now it seemed that the trouble the Blood God Sect was about to encounter might be even greater!

Su Ping sincerely hoped that the main force of the Blood God Sect wouldn't relocate so quickly, and would just happen to run into the High Monks of the Great Golden Light Temple.

After doing this good deed, Su Ping was in no hurry to go to the Merit Stele to exchange for items.

Instead, he acted as an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator who wanted to make a fortune and strolled around Zhenshou Xiancheng.

Unlike the desolate Jinzi Domain.

The urban area of Zhenshou Xiancheng looked as prosperous as ever.

Except for the residents in the teahouses complaining from time to time that daily necessities were getting more and more expensive.

The residents here didn't have to worry at all about evil cultivators causing trouble or Demon Beasts launching surprise attacks.

Although the Demon Beasts of the Ten Thousand Mountains had continuously launched attacks on Zhenshou Xiancheng over the past few decades.

There hadn't been a single time that it had actually caused any real impact or damage to the people in the urban area.

Outside the Immortal City and inside the Immortal City were, in a sense, already two different worlds.

Because of this, living in the Immortal City was not easy.

Even if it wasn't a Cave Abode with a Qi-gathering array, the price of ordinary inns was constantly rising every month.

This caused more and more small families and small sects that rushed to Zhenshou Xiancheng to choose to disband their disciples and followers, so as to make it easier for them to seek refuge with local wealthy families within the Immortal City, thereby seeking a place to settle down.

Exorcist Mage Yunkong, whom Su Ping sent out to stroll, could also be considered a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, and he was clearly an outsider.

While drinking tea at a teahouse, he encountered several stewards from local large families who came to invite him.

Clearly, even in Zhenshou Xiancheng, Foundation Establishment cultivators were still not cabbages.

They were still very much worth competing for.

Su Ping also went to the Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion.

This time, it was naturally not to find them to craft a Spirit Tool.

But to attend a small Auction held by this Immortal Sect.

And after the meeting, he found a Deacon, explained his intention, and spent a few Spirit Stones to obtain the catalog of rare items for the next Auction that he would be happy to consign.

Su Ping also learned along the way that the next large-scale auction at the Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion would be held in one month.

Of course, the usual small-scale auctions would continue to be held according to the standard of every three to ten days.

Su Ping kept this in mind, continuously flipping through the illustrated guide he had obtained, focusing on spirit herbs that became more expensive as they aged, pondering how to use his Abundant Spirit Water to cultivate precious spirit herbs to earn Spirit Stones.

In the short term, to obtain a large amount of Spirit Stones without stealing or robbing.

As it stands, there is no doubt that auctioning some kind of spirit object at an auction is the most cost-effective method.

As for things like white sugar, food, and other daily necessities, they are fine for earning a few small Spirit Stones, but if he wants to make big money and have sustainable development, the current Su Ping lacks that background!

Even for the auction, Su Ping had prepared to take advantage of the fact that the other side had to save face in the Zhenshou Xiancheng, then use the Teleportation Rune to earn enough and run, and then use the Pot Heaven to isolate any possibility of being tracked by the other side.

And it was only after he had mentally prepared himself that all the Spirit Stones obtained from the auction would only be spent on Water Blue Star and never brought out into the Cultivation World that he finalized this plan.

Su Ping's eyes suddenly lit up.

He saw a spirit herb that met his needs.

Moon Spirit Grass, a type that only barely matures after a hundred years, is one of the main ingredients needed to make the spirit pills for protecting the Dao required for Foundation Establishment to break through to the Golden Core.

It is also an important auxiliary ingredient for many pills that increase Dharma Power.

Because its growth environment is harsh, it has many requirements.

Most Moon Spirit Lotuses are harvested and used as precious spirit herbs as soon as they barely reach a hundred-year growth period.

Only in the Cave Heaven Secret Realm of very few Immortal Sects would they choose to cultivate Moon Spirit Grass of five hundred or even eight hundred years of age.

The spirit pills refined from five-hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass, besides offsetting the side effects of a failed breakthrough, can also increase the success rate of a Foundation Establishment breakthrough to Golden Core by ten to twenty percent!

And once an eight-hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass is cultivated, this spirit grass will undergo a qualitative change, thereby being called Moon God Grass!

Besides increasing Dharma Power, this spirit herb has another major function: providing help for Golden Core Great Ability when breaking through to Nascent Soul.

It can ensure that a Golden Core Great Ability does not suffer from Qi deviation after a failed breakthrough.

It can be said to be a spirit herb that would make even Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators tempted.

Of course, in Su Ping's view, the effects of these spirit herbs that make high-level cultivators so tempted are all inferior to his own Purification Spirit Medicine!

When he needs to break through, he doesn't need these auxiliary breakthrough spirit herbs at all; he just charges through directly.

If the breakthrough fails, he just drinks a bottle of Purification Spirit Medicine and a bottle of Life Spirit Medicine.

Then he rests for a bit and can try again.

With enough attempts, he will always succeed in breaking through!

He is the kind of cultivator in storybooks who succeeds in breaking through without relying on spirit pills.

In storybooks, such cultivators are called Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment or Heavenly Dao Golden Core; it is a treatment only protagonists or important supporting characters have!

Su Ping also noticed this Moon Spirit Grass.

Because one of its main production areas is the Mu Zi Yu of the Chiyuan Immortal Sect.

And that region has now turned into an Evil Domain.

There is almost no hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass circulating on the market anymore.

The price of hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass at auctions has also risen by more than several times compared to before.

Su Ping had Exorcist Mage Yunkong leave the Zhenshou Xiancheng.

He himself transformed into the appearance of Baihe Zhenren, went to the Merit Stele, exchanged the purified Sealed Dharma Artifact for merit, and then exchanged a portion of this merit for some High-grade Spirit Stones.

From the Merit Stele, he redeemed a small box of Moon Spirit Grass seeds.

This small box contained about fifty seeds.

The value was about the same as one mid-grade Spirit Stone.

After reading the accompanying planting suggestions.

Su Ping somewhat understood why this Moon Spirit Grass had such great effects but couldn't spread throughout the Cultivation World.

Moon Spirit Grass has extremely high requirements for spirit land; only spirit land born from at least a Third-Grade Low-Tier Spiritual Vein is qualified to plant this spirit grass.

Then, after the Moon Spirit Grass is planted, the growth process is quite delicate.

In some cases, it even has the requirement of needing a music Grandmaster to perform music when it is in a bad mood.

That is fine, but the more critical point is that after reaching the maturity period after a hundred years, the Moon Spirit Grass may produce five to twenty seeds at any time.

And once seeds are produced, it means that this Moon Spirit Grass has entered the aging period; not only will it not live past the next hundred years, but its own medicinal power will also deteriorate day by day.

Usually, sects that cultivate Moon Spirit Grass will harvest the spirit grass for medicine within ten to twenty years after it produces seeds.

The suggestions explicitly stated that without disciples with relevant Spirit Bodies to prevent the Moon Spirit Grass from producing seeds.

Wanting to cultivate Moon Spirit Grass of a higher age... that is a dream!

Su Ping has the natural Spirit Body worker Teresa.

However, with Teresa's current cultivation, it is obviously not enough to cultivate Moon Spirit Grass.

Fortunately, Su Ping did not intend to rely on Teresa to cultivate Moon Spirit Grass of five hundred years or more.

Returning to the hotel room, after setting up multiple Shielding Arrays.

Su Ping entered the Pot Heaven.

He came to the side of Teresa, who was playing a game with the black cat.

The sudden appearance of Baihe Zhenren Su Ping gave Teresa a fright, and she hurriedly stood up.

Meow!

After the black cat also landed, it buried its head in the soil, not daring to look directly at its true master, Su Ping.

Su Ping glanced at them.

His gaze turned toward the large Spirit Field.

Most of the Spirit Rice and spirit herbs in these Spirit Fields had already entered the growth period.

Su Ping waved his hand, and the Storage Spirit Tool opened, pouring out a large amount of spirit soil to form a mu of spirit land.

Afterward, Su Ping took out a seed of Moon Spirit Grass and let it sink into the Spirit Soil.

Then, under Su Ping's gentle encouragement.

Teresa, wearing a nun's habit, approached the small pit where the seed had landed, stretched out her hands toward it, and began to pray silently.

Wisps of green light, visible only to Su Ping at the moment, emerged from Teresa's body and sank into the seed.

Accompanied by a gentle breeze blowing across this mountain peak.

Accompanied by Teresa's prayers.

A streak of green light rushed into mid-air, transformed into a drizzling light rain, and fell onto the soil within a one-meter radius around the seed, moistening this piece of Spirit Soil.

Just like that, a few minutes passed.

The seed broke through its shell and sprouted, turning into a tiny Moon Spirit Grass seedling.

"It's ready!"

Seeing the seedling emerge, Su Ping nodded slightly, flew over, and used Abundant Spirit Water on the seedling.

As the Fishing Coin began to disappear, it transformed into Abundant Spirit Water and sank into the Moon Spirit Grass seedling.

A faint white light emerged from this Moon Spirit Grass.

The surrounding Spirit Qi seemed to encounter a vortex, surging over and being continuously absorbed by the Moon Spirit Grass.

One year, three years, ten years... fifty years!

In less than seven or eight short seconds, with the help of Bountiful Spirit Art, this Moon Spirit Grass had shockingly transformed into a hundred-year-old mature spirit grass.

It had matured, so it was time to consider propagating the next generation.

The Moon Spirit Grass thought this, but discovered it had no time at all to cultivate the next generation.

It inexplicably matured too much, directly turning into two hundred years, three hundred years...

Finally, it settled as a five-hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass!

The five-hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass was entirely like a blue-purple jade artwork.

It emitted a crystalline and beautiful halo.

A strange fragrance also wafted out.

It made Teresa and the other Qi Refining cultivators unable to help but become addicted to the fragrance, falling into some kind of mysterious fantasy.

"Is this a five-hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass?"

"It looks extremely extraordinary!"

"It seems my method is feasible."

"As long as I don't give this Moon Spirit Grass time to propagate or make demands, what does it matter to me how delicate and hard to raise this Moon Spirit Grass is!"

With a movement of Su Ping's Divine Sense, the matured Moon Spirit Grass was pulled out by the roots and placed into a specialized White Jade Box to be packed away.

Although an eight-hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass was undoubtedly more valuable.

But after thinking it over repeatedly, Su Ping still decided that taking the five-hundred-year-old one to the Auction would suffice.

Although five hundred years is rare and precious, the target audience is ultimately Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators.

As for an eight-hundred-year-old one, it could already implicate Nascent Soul old monsters.

On one hand, Su Ping was somewhat worried that this branch of the Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion, as the auction party, might ultimately be unable to handle such a great wonder.

On the other hand, the greater the influence and the more it involves, the slower the payment will be, and Su Ping did not intend to wait that long in Zhenshou Xiancheng!

Furthermore, Su Ping did not intend to sell only this one.

With the initial cultivation experience.

Relying on Abundant Spirit Water, Su Ping soon had three more five-hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grasses in his hands.

Looking at these Moon Spirit Grasses, whose effects were inferior to Purification Spirit Medicine for him.

Su Ping revealed a smile.

…………

Zhenshou Xiancheng.

Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion.

Shopkeeper Niu laughed as he received the Patriarch of the local great family, the Huang Family.

After personally handing over a customized Spirit Tool to this Patriarch.

Shopkeeper Niu suddenly spoke:

"Does Patriarch Huang intend to participate in tomorrow's Auction?"

"Hmm?"

Patriarch Huang was slightly startled. Knowing that this old friend would not speak without a reason, he smiled, put away the box, and said:

"Oh, has the Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion received good goods this time?"

"Hehe, it might not necessarily be very good for others, but it should be a good thing for Patriarch Huang."

Shopkeeper Niu recalled the script written by several shopkeepers that morning and said to Patriarch Huang:

"At this small Auction, we will have three Moon Spirit Grasses up for auction!"

"Hmm? Moon Spirit Grass?"

"Wait!"

"Moon Spirit Grass that can be auctioned at the Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion?"

Patriarch Huang reacted, a bit excited:

"Eight-hundred-year-old ones?"

"Cough cough, how could there be such a divine object? Five-hundred-year-old ones!"

"Moon Spirit Grass has a threshold every hundred years; you would have to go to an ancient Immortal Sect Dongtian to have a chance to find an eight-hundred-year-old one, and it would have to be an ancient Dongtian that hasn't been polluted... that would involve much more!"

"Five-hundred-year-old ones are quite good too, hiss... your pavilion is going to make a fortune this time!"

Patriarch Huang offered a few compliments, thanked Shopkeeper Niu for the notification, and then hurried out of the Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion.

He had set his heart on obtaining this five-hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass.

At the very least, he had to obtain one of them.

Only then could he invite an Immortal City alchemist to help refine the Spirit Pill.

Then, his family's Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Old Ancestor would have a sliver of a chance to use this pill to attempt a breakthrough to Golden Core.

And the help a Golden Core Great Ability provides to a family.

I am afraid no one understands this better than the various great families who have watched the currents of events in Zhenshou Xiancheng for a long time.

Although, realistically speaking, even if one obtained this five-hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass and refined it into a Spirit Pill, the probability of a breakthrough would still be extremely low.

But after knowing that such a possibility exists.

Which head of a great family could resist the urge to gamble on it!

After a while, inside the Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion, Shopkeeper Niu shook his head with a bitter face, refusing the intercession of an elder in the mirror.

That was also a high-level member of the Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion.

Upon learning that there was precious Moon Spirit Grass, this high-level member had contacted Shopkeeper Niu.

Hoping to exchange for a stalk of Moon Spirit Grass through a barter method.

It was just that Shopkeeper Niu shook his head in helplessness and refused; it was not that he was unwilling to help.

It was that after that white-haired youth recorded the video and took the voucher, he had vanished.

It is said that the last witness saw that white-haired youth leave the city.

Shopkeeper Niu had no way to contact the other party, so naturally, he could only follow the agreement and put it up for auction.

Shopkeeper Niu could only kindly remind this high-level senior that if they really wanted it, they should find a proxy to participate in the auction, and it would be best to prepare more Spirit Stones.

The seller this time refused to barter and only wanted Spirit Stones!

Soon, when night arrived.

The news that the Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion had five-hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass.

Had already quietly spread through the circles of the various great families.

Following that, in the Inner City District Inspection Mansion.

The temporary female inspector cultivator, draped in a Seven-Colored Dharma Robe, also learned of this interesting event from the spirit ghosts monitoring the Immortal City.

"The Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion actually found a good item this time; that is rare."

"Moon Spirit Grass... it is a pity that eight-hundred-year-old Moon Spirit Grass is too hard to come by!"

"Pass down the order to strengthen security; do not let some people ruin the rules of the Immortal City!"
