Chapter 232

However, before refining the pill, there was still one major matter to do.

Long Xuan suddenly smiled, placed one of the World Tree seeds on the table like a treasure, and with a thought, he appeared in the space inside the World Tree seed.

Looking at the green field around him, Long Xuan took a deep breath of fresh air, feeling refreshed all over; he smiled slightly and immediately prepared to plant the divine trees.

Heaven-defying spirit medicines have one characteristic, and that is that no other spirit medicines can survive around all heaven-defying spirit medicines.

Low-grade spirit medicines planted next to heaven-defying spirit medicines will have all their nutrients snatched away and wither to death; if two types of heaven-defying spirit medicines are neighbors, it will lead to the two types of heaven-defying spirit medicines fighting, and in the end, neither will survive.

So when planting heaven-defying spirit medicines, the spacing must be very large, large enough to span many mountains, and they must never be planted in a pile.

This was also the experience Long Xuan had groped for when planting the Divine Dragon Wood.

So he planted the Heaven-Mending Tree on the northernmost side of the World Tree seed space, and planted the World Tree on the southernmost side.

It didn't take much time; after all, planting the Heaven-Mending Tree only required inserting a branch, and planting the World Tree only required burying a seed, and it didn't require a large amount of physical labor.

In the end, his luck was also good; these two divine trees had not yet randomly refreshed in this world.

So not long after he buried the superior spirit soil, he saw progress appearing on these two divine trees, and he was immediately overjoyed.

From then on, he could be considered a person with two divine trees, and there was also a divine wood of the same level, the Soul-Nourishing Wood.

He was very looking forward to seeing how large the volume of the Swallowing Heaven World Toad would become after putting these three heaven-defying heavy treasures into its belly.

One must know that these are all unique things in the world, with a level higher than Grade Twelve Heaven-Grade spirit medicines; this world no longer has treasures with a level higher than them.

Even if the Grade Two treasures on that Third Young Master were many, could their value added together be higher than the value of these three heaven-defying spirit medicines?

He only needed these three heaven-defying spirit medicines, which was enough to make the volume of the Swallowing Heaven World Toad larger than the Three-Legged Golden Toad of the Third Young Master, not to mention he also had many Earth-Grade spirit medicines and Heaven-Grade spirit medicines.

Treasures are definitely valued for their quality, not their quantity; no matter how many low-grade treasures are put into the belly of the Three-Legged Golden Toad, its strength is ultimately limited.

Long Xuan took a deep breath excitedly, finally no longer paying attention to these two trees, and prepared to immediately carry out the work of refining the Heaven-Mending Pill.

He only had one chance to refine the pill; the materials needed to refine the Heaven-Mending Pill were simply too rare; even the Third Young Master, whose family wealth was heaven-defying, could only give him one set of materials; just after finishing the trade with him, the Third Young Master was immediately empty of four hundred types of treasures.

What restricts the quantity of heaven-defying pill formulas is never the number of alchemy geniuses, but the rarity of the materials.

However, for a person like Long Xuan who cheats, even if there was only one chance to refine the pill, it was completely enough for him; he immediately started the furnace to refine the pill, without any look of nervousness.

At this time, that rabbit also ran out of the insect breeding bag excitedly, running around the huge alchemy furnace that was enough to hold ten thousand types of materials, enjoying itself to the fullest.

The thing this alchemy rabbit liked most was refining pills, especially refining heaven-defying spirit pills; it would go crazy seeing heaven-defying materials.

Now Long Xuan was preparing to refine a heaven-defying spirit pill; how could it not be excited? So it immediately ran out to watch, preparing to witness the birth of the Heaven-Mending Pill.

Seeing this rabbit that was about to be excited to death, Long Xuan was amused and teased: "Did you run out to steal the teacher's art?"

"My tuition is very expensive."

"Considering we are very familiar, I will give you a ninety percent discount on the tuition; you can slowly work to pay off the debt for me later."

Long Xuan smiled unscrupulously and finally took out all the spirit medicines, then carried out the first step of refining the pill: refining the spirit medicines.

A cluster of ice-blue flames suddenly rose from his hands, releasing astonishing cold air; under the control of the major split souls, the Ice Cold Divine Flame was divided into one hundred and sixty parts, respectively burning the one hundred and sixty types of spirit medicines floating in the air.

This was the benefit of cultivating the "Heavenly Demon Disintegration Divine Art"; one could use split souls to use one mind for multiple purposes; it was simply too convenient to use flames to purify various materials when refining pills.

Otherwise, for these ten thousand types of spirit medicines, if he refined them one by one, who knew when he would finish refining them.

It was just that he had been cultivating the "Heavenly Demon Disintegration Divine Art" for a short time, and had only split his soul four times, splitting out a total of one hundred and sixty split souls; the number was truly a bit small; otherwise, he would really want to split out ten thousand souls and finish refining all the spirit medicines in one breath.

This time refining the Heaven-Mending Pill was of great importance, and he wasn't prepared to let clones with slightly worse alchemy techniques participate; after all, clones couldn't see the progress.

To be safe, he could only do it himself; otherwise, with the help of clones, his alchemy speed could be even faster.

Time passed bit by bit, and that rabbit sat quietly beside him, looking extremely serious as it watched him refine the pill, its expression solemn, not blinking even once.

One person and one rabbit sat like this for a month.

On this day, above the mountain cave, dark clouds suddenly began to gather; the black dark clouds stretched for who knew how many miles, continuous and unending.

There were bursts of thunder and lightning in the dark clouds, but not a drop of rain was seen.

Immediately afterward, a violent wind began to blow; the violent wind rolled up the sand, soil, and gravel on the ground, as if a sandstorm had blown up.

And the place with the greatest movement was above a mountain cave; the dark clouds in the sky formed a huge black funnel, the tip pointing directly at the cave abode, and it was rotating at high speed.

Just a moment ago, the sky was clear and cloudless, but now dark clouds suddenly gathered and a violent wind blew; this was clearly a heavenly anomaly; there must be a strange treasure born nearby.

Even though Long Xuan deliberately chose a very remote place for the alchemy location, such a large heavenly anomaly still attracted the attention of quite a few people.

To the southeast, at this time, a green boat was flying rapidly toward here; there were men and women on the green boat, all of whom were Essence Refining stage Gu Cultivators.

There were six of them in total, all wearing clothes of the same color and style, all green; they must be people from the same force.

The handsome young man in the lead stood on the bow of the boat, looking at the direction of the anomaly, his eyes revealing a look of shock.

"Just a moment ago, it was sunny and cloudless here, but now dark clouds have suddenly gathered and a violent wind is blowing; the weather has changed so much in an instant, without any warning; it must be that a strange treasure has appeared in the world, and it is eighty percent likely to be a strange treasure refined by humans."

The young man revealed a look of greed and said excitedly.

"Senior Brother, how can you be so sure that this must be an anomaly caused by the appearance of a strange treasure? And also so sure that it is a strange treasure refined by humans, and not naturally born?"

On the boat, a young man in the crowd asked curiously.

"Hmph! Does this need thinking? This is a barren and remote place, and the spiritual power is thin to the extreme; which of the strange treasures brewed by heaven and earth is not born in a geomantic treasure land with abundant spiritual power; how could it be born in a barren land with thin spiritual power?"

"So this strange treasure that caused the heavenly anomaly must be refined by humans; someone must be refining a pill here, or refining an artifact, because the thing refined is simply too heaven-defying, which is why it attracted the heavenly anomaly."

"People who are active in bird-doesn't-shit places are basically scattered cultivators with extremely weak strength; they are afraid of being killed for their treasures, so they only dare to hide in places where human tracks are rare."

"This anomaly has not had a thunder tribulation descend for a long time; it is likely that the person who refined this treasure probably doesn't have a high realm. If we go there, we will definitely be able to snatch that heaven-defying treasure."

"Snatching the heaven-defying treasure is secondary; the pill formula or artifact formula on his hand that is enough to attract anomalies is the most important; once we get it, handing it over to the Gu Spirit Sect will be enough to exchange for a massive amount of sect contribution."

Hearing this, everyone revealed a look of being moved; a treasure enough to trigger a heavenly anomaly must be a heaven-defying thing; in front of this treasure, who could not be moved?

However, a female Gu Cultivator wearing a white veil frowned slightly and hesitated: "You want to take your fellow disciples to kill for treasures?"

The young man turned to look at her and said disdainfully: "You want to be a saint mother? Being a saint mother in the Gu World won't let you live long; if you can't bear it in your heart, you can get off the boat; there is no share of the treasure for you."

The veiled woman's expression didn't change and continued: "Is the person who can refine a treasure that attracts anomalies an ordinary person? There is a huge risk in confronting such a character; are you so sure that you will definitely be able to defeat him?"

"We have other important missions; the distinguished guest is not far away; I advise you not to cause extra trouble? Your death is small, but ruining the sect mission is big."

The young man smiled: "The Gu Spirit Sect is the number one sect of the Xuanyue Empire; as a genius ranked in the top ten of the Gu Spirit Sect, plus the assistance of many junior brothers, who can't I defeat?"

"Moreover, this is just a matter of passing by; how much time can it delay? It will definitely not delay the sect mission; I think you are alarmist."

He suddenly turned to look at the group of junior brothers and said: "Now we have a huge disagreement; do you choose to listen to me and go together to intercept and kill that person, or do you choose to listen to her and put the mission first?"

"If you choose to listen to me, stay on the boat; if you choose to listen to her, get off the boat with her."

As the words fell, the group of young people on the boat all moved their gazes away from the veiled woman, and their footsteps didn't move at all.

The veiled woman shook her head, sighed lightly, jumped off the boat, and finally landed lightly on a huge butterfly.

"Hmph! A saint mother bitch; we don't need to care about her; I'll take you all to make a fortune..."

A moment later, the green boat stopped in front of a black dark cloud vortex, and everyone on the boat looked at it with shock in their hearts.

Treasures that can trigger heavenly anomalies are simply too few; even though they were disciples of the Gu Spirit Sect who had seen a lot, it was also their first time witnessing the anomaly triggered by the appearance of a strange treasure with their own eyes, and everyone's expressions were filled with shock.

"My master is in seclusion here; please leave, everyone, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings!"

The Flame Clone stepped on the tip of a tree, with his hands behind his back, and shouted loudly toward the people in the sky.

Hearing the sound, the group of geniuses on the boat looked at the person below, only to see that the person's toes were stepping on the highest leaf of a tree, yet he didn't move at all, as if this person were lighter than paper, so light that he couldn't even bend the leaf.

Everyone revealed a look of shock; just how was this done.
