Chapter 840: The Heaven-Defying Taiyin Jade Liquid (Second update, requesting everything)

Taiyin Jade Liquid: A Lower-Grade World Wonder, containing a trace of Taiyin origin, which can increase the grade of spiritual plants. Note: Ineffective on Top-tier Spiritual Plants.

The information is not extensive, but the efficacy is quite powerful; it can directly increase the grade of a spiritual plant, and there is no talk of success rates, which means there is no possibility of failure.

Although it is ineffective on Top-tier Spiritual Plants, it can elevate High-grade Spiritual Plants to Top-tier Spiritual Plants, and this is what is most important.

"Which spiritual plant should I use it to upgrade?"

Li Zhangsheng thought to himself; he possessed four types of High-grade Spiritual Plants in his hands: the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree, the Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree, the Lanxin Fruit Tree, and the Sacred Zhilan Grass.

Li Zhangsheng first ruled out the Sacred Zhilan Grass; compared to fruit tree-type spiritual plants, the value of grass-type spiritual plants is undoubtedly a tier lower.

There is no help for it; fruit tree-type spiritual plants can cultivate a batch of spiritual fruits at once, while although grass-type spiritual plants can also divide their stalks, the efficiency is very low and the cycle is very long. If it were a World Wonder-grade grass-type spiritual plant, it goes without saying; it would likely take over a hundred years to divide a stalk.

Secondly, Li Zhangsheng ruled out the Lanxin Fruit Tree; if the fruits produced by this fruit tree are consumed together with Xuanhuang Root, there is a thirty to forty percent probability of allowing Demon Pets with a bloodline below Concentrated Grade to enter the Bloodline Metamorphosis stage.

If he only upgraded the Lanxin Fruit Tree, although the effect of the Lanxin Fruit would be greatly enhanced, Li Zhangsheng was afraid it could no longer be consumed alone.

The problem arises: if the grade of the Lanxin Fruit is increased, it is likely it can no longer be paired with Xuanhuang Root for consumption, as the medicinal effects between the two would differ too greatly.

In this way, only the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree and the Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree remained.

The Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit produced by the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree can significantly accelerate Li Zhangsheng's cultivation speed and can quickly condense Star Apertures; it is of great use to him.

The Heavenly Spirit Fruit produced by the Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree can allow a Demon Pet to possess a Second Treasure Space; if the grade rises, does it mean it could allow a Demon Pet to open a third Treasure Space?

"No, that's not right; there are only two types of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure that can open a third Treasure Space, and both are World Wonder-grade treasures. Even if the grade of the Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree is increased, the Heavenly Spirit Fruit it produces likely still cannot allow a Demon Pet to open a third Treasure Space."

Li Zhangsheng slapped his forehead; a third Treasure Space is not something that can be opened so easily.

If the upgraded Heavenly Spirit Fruit cannot allow a Demon Pet to open a third Treasure Space, it would most likely become a useless burden.

Of course, there might be other powerful effects, but Li Zhangsheng had no need to gamble on such a probability.

As such, Li Zhangsheng could only choose the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree.

All along, even if Li Zhangsheng spent vast resources, the improvement speed of his Demon Pets still exceeded his own; if the effect of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree were greatly enhanced, Li Zhangsheng's cultivation speed would also rise with the tide.

Additionally, if the first batch of Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruits matured in the short term, he could even quickly ascend to King rank.

Not only that, the upgraded Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruits might even derive other powerful effects, which also filled Li Zhangsheng with anticipation.

The next moment, Li Zhangsheng pulled Ning Bizhen into the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian.

Ning Bizhen had been to this place several times; apart from the initial shock, she was now accustomed to it.

After the two entered, the diligent Xiaoguai flew in front of them at once and landed on Li Zhangsheng's shoulder.

Li Zhangsheng observed for a moment; the spiritual plants in the space could be described as flourishing, and it was clear that Xiaoguai had spent a great deal of effort in caring for them.

Immediately, Xiaoguai pointed to a seedling less than ten centimeters tall not far away and said, "Master, I want to report good news: the seed you gave me before has taken root and sprouted."

While speaking, Xiaoguai gazed at Li Zhangsheng with a face full of anticipation, wearing an expression that said, "Praise me quickly."

Looking at this seedling, Li Zhangsheng finally remembered that some time ago he had handed an endangered seed to Xiaoguai to care for.

This seed seemed to have been looted from the Dragon Lair in the Langya Liu Clan Secret Realm; it was only the size of a soybean, yet even as an endangered seed, it radiated energy fluctuations of the Heavenly Essence Grade. If cultivated to maturity, it would at least be a Heaven and Earth Rare Treasure-grade spiritual plant, and there was even a certain possibility of it being a Top-tier Spiritual Plant.

Because of this, Li Zhangsheng held this seed in relatively high regard, so he had Xiaoguai plant it near the Tree of Life and had it watered with Life Water every so often.

At this moment, Li Zhangsheng subconsciously released his Mental Power to envelop this seedling.

To his delight, since the seed had grown into a seedling, the energy fluctuations it radiated had improved significantly, and it was now extremely close to the category of High-grade Spiritual Plants.

Once cultivated to maturity, it really might be a Top-tier Spiritual Plant; Li Zhangsheng was filled with anticipation for this.

"Well done, Xiaoguai, this is your reward."

Li Zhangsheng did not forget this meritorious contributor, Xiaoguai, and took a large pile of snacks out of his ring; besides liking to cultivate spiritual plants, Xiaoguai's greatest hobby was eating sweets.

After Xiaoguai left excitedly clutching the snacks, Li Zhangsheng came before the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree and opened the Jade Bottle containing the Taiyin Jade Liquid.

For a moment, a fragrance as sweet as orchids assailed his nostrils, and whether it was an illusion or not, Li Zhangsheng felt the spiritual plants in this space move slightly, their branches all stretching toward Li Zhangsheng's side, giving one the feeling of ten thousand spirits paying homage to their ancestor.

Under the control of his Mental Power, all the Taiyin Jade Liquid in the Jade Bottle flew out and was poured onto the main trunk of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree.

In an instant, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree was enveloped by concentrated starlight.

Crack— Crack—

At the same time, Li Zhangsheng shattered a large number of treasures containing star power, causing the concentration of star power in the Dangkang Xianglian Kongjian to skyrocket instantly.

When Taiyin Jade Liquid increases the grade of a spiritual plant, it also requires a large amount of energy of the same attribute as the spiritual plant as a source for the advancement.

The next moment, countless star power formed a funnel, pouring madly down toward the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree.

The branches and trunk of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree were thickening, growing taller, and expanding at an extremely fast speed; delicate silver star patterns appeared on both the main trunk and the branches.

During this process, Li Zhangsheng felt quite pained as he shattered a large number of treasures containing rich star power, finally managing to supply the absorption speed of the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree.

It was only when the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree exceeded a height of one hundred meters that it gradually slowed down.

A quarter of an hour later, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree stopped growing, finally becoming a large tree over one hundred and fifty meters tall.

Observing carefully, the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree had a total of 365 branches, and each branch was nurturing a green, unripe fruit.

Li Zhangsheng discovered with surprise that these 365 fruits corresponded to the celestial bodies of the heavens, and they could autonomously draw in the corresponding star power, pulling down streaks of starlight as thick as a thumb.

This meant that these Star Fruits possessed 365 different properties; if used to open the corresponding Star Apertures, they would likely exert even better effects, and might even come with corresponding auxiliary effects.
