Chapter 726: Accelerating the Ripening of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree (Second Update, seeking all)

At Li Zhangsheng's request, Xiaoguai planted that bean-like seed under the shade of the Tree of Life, which is also where the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil is located.

If one adds the efficacy of the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian, along with Xiaoguai's careful tending, it is believed that this seed will soon regain its vitality, take root, and sprout, though it is unknown what kind of spirit plant it will eventually grow into.

Due to the expansion of the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian, Xiaoguai inevitably became busy, planting spirit plant seeds or roots one by one and casting the Sweet Dew Spell to nourish these seeds.

It is believed that after a period of time, these expanded barren lands will also become lush and green.

Li Zhangsheng also handed the three Mysterious Jade Ginsengs to Kailan, the Crowned Flame Bird, and the Ancestral Leopard-Qilin Beast to consume; they all only have one elemental weakness, and the Mysterious Jade Ginseng can completely eliminate their elemental weaknesses.

If it were a Demon Pet like Aixi that possesses two elemental weaknesses, the Mysterious Jade Ginseng could only randomly eliminate one of them; no matter how many Mysterious Jade Ginsengs were eaten, the second elemental weakness could not be eliminated.

To eliminate the second elemental weakness, a higher-level Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure is required.

Li Zhangsheng has not yet obtained such a Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure; it most likely belongs to the Heaven and Earth Rare Treasure grade.

On the other side, the Spirit-Devouring Rat is working diligently, following Li Zhangsheng's request to dig out a stone cave only the size of a restroom.

At this time, Li Zhangsheng took the Seven Treasures Glazed Bead and the stalactite out from his ring, buried the Seven Treasures Glazed Bead into the top of the stone cave, and placed the stalactite underneath.

The Spirit-Devouring Rat used the Mud-to-Stone skill to fix the stalactite in place.

Li Zhangsheng placed a special Jade Bottle underneath; in this way, it could continuously produce Glazed Pure Water, which can be used to accelerate the ripening of spirit plants.

"Spirit-Devouring Rat, thank you for your hard work."

Li Zhangsheng stroked the Spirit-Devouring Rat's little head, and the Spirit-Devouring Rat squinted its eyes, revealing an expression of enjoyment.

Soon, the industrious Spirit-Devouring Rat ran back to the barren land to help Xiaoguai loosen the soil.

At this moment, Li Zhangsheng came before the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree seedling.

Xiaoguai had already moved this seedling to an open area in advance to avoid affecting other spirit plants.

Li Zhangsheng took out two and a half bottles of Glazed Pure Water; compared to last time, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree seedling had grown slightly taller, but it was still a long way from maturity, and even with various bonuses, it would likely take twenty to thirty years.

Li Zhangsheng could not wait that long, because at his current rate of growth, by the time the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree matured naturally, it would likely be of no use to him.

Only by using Glazed Pure Water could Li Zhangsheng quickly ripen the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree and let it enter the Mature Stage to cultivate fruit.

Li Zhangsheng opened a Jade Bottle, and under the guidance of his Mental Power, drops of crystal-clear, jade-like liquid flew out from the bottle and dripped onto the main trunk of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree seedling.

One bottle of Glazed Pure Water contains a total of twenty drops, and Li Zhangsheng poured the entire bottle on it in one go.

According to Li Zhangsheng's estimation, one bottle of Glazed Pure Water could not make the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree directly skip the Growth Stage.

Within just a few breaths of time, the twenty drops of Glazed Pure Water slowly soaked into the seedling's body and disappeared.

The next moment, the entire seedling radiated a lustrous starlight from the outside and began to absorb the escaping Starlight Power.

However, the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian area is too small, and the Starlight Power is quite limited, so Li Zhangsheng had to shatter some treasures containing large amounts of Starlight Power; a large amount of tangible starlight gathered like a swarm, crazily pouring into the seedling to provide for the smooth growth of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree.

Under the supply of a large amount of Starlight Power, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree seedling seemed to be wrapped in a thick pillar of starlight.

It was only at this moment that the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree seedling began to grow rapidly, with a speed that was unimaginably fast.

In the span of a few breaths, the main trunk of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree exceeded ten meters and was still growing at high speed.

Compared to the Tree of Life, the effect of Glazed Pure Water on the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree is even better.

After five minutes passed, all twenty drops of Glazed Pure Water had been completely absorbed by the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree; at this time, its height had already exceeded thirty meters, and it was only a short distance away from the Mature Stage.

From a seedling to a tree over thirty meters tall, it only took five minutes.

According to Li Zhangsheng's estimation, one drop of Glazed Pure Water can reduce the growth time of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree by almost three years; twenty drops would be sixty years, and the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree needs a total of one hundred years from seedling to maturity, so it would likely need about a dozen more drops.

Without hesitation, Li Zhangsheng opened the second bottle of Glazed Pure Water.

This time, he did not pour all the Glazed Pure Water onto the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree at once, but first poured ten drops, and then added them one by one to avoid waste.

After absorbing another ten drops of Glazed Pure Water, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree continued to grow vigorously, growing directly to over ninety meters.

When Li Zhangsheng added two more drops of Glazed Pure Water, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree finally entered the Mature Stage, turning into a tree one hundred meters tall with a diameter of over ten meters, radiating a lustrous starlight.

After reaching the Mature Stage, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree can not only produce fruit but also has the function of drawing in Starlight Power.

Except for the majority absorbed by the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree, the remaining Starlight Power scattered throughout the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian, more or less nourishing the growth of the spirit plants.

After reaching maturity, even if Glazed Pure Water is used to accelerate ripening, it cannot make the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree directly produce fruit, but rather makes it continue to advance toward the Saturation Stage.

Although the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree at the Saturation Stage can draw in more Starlight Power, it is of little use to Li Zhangsheng.

Most importantly, where would Li Zhangsheng have so much Glazed Pure Water left?

According to common sense, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree needs two or three years to cultivate a batch of fruit.

However, the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian, the Tree of Life, the Spirit Soil, and Xiaoguai's careful tending can all significantly shorten the growth cycle of the fruit; it is likely that a batch of Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit can be obtained in just a few months.

Li Zhangsheng was naturally full of anticipation; if he had the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit to assist in his cultivation, his cultivation speed would definitely soar by a large margin.

After accelerating the ripening of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree, Li Zhangsheng still had many things to be busy with.

There was no need to drill the Demon Pets; the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian is such a small place, it is not enough for drilling, and he would also have to worry about the Demon Pets damaging the spirit plants.

Under these circumstances, Li Zhangsheng could only give the Demon Pets a few days off, occasionally letting them out to get some air and replenish their energy.

What needs to be done now is to start refining the Huanlong Magic Desire Stone and the Luck Incense Candle; Li Zhangsheng plans to refine the Huanlong Magic Desire Stone into a one-time-use treasure.

This seems a bit wasteful, but it can enhance the power; with his level of artifact refining, he should be able to refine a one-time-use treasure that can also exert effects on Demon King-level Demon Pets.
