Chapter 374: Spirit Herb Garden
Hearing Gao Yuyao say this, Song Qingming couldn't help but look at the Treasure Light Cauldron in her hand twice more, discovering that this magic tool was also a rare second-tier high-grade magic tool. If it could still be used as a second-tier high-grade alchemy furnace for refining pills, then the value of this item would far exceed ordinary magic tools of the same tier.
A second-tier high-grade alchemy furnace, even in a large market like Yangshan Market, was rare to see. It was estimated that there were not even ten cultivators in the entire State of Wei who possessed such a treasure. If only talking about the price of spirit stones, this Treasure Light Cauldron was estimated to be even more precious than the Azure Water Bell in Song Qingming's hand.
Seeing Gao Yuyao holding the Treasure Light Cauldron and unable to put it down, Duan Xueyi on the side could only smile somewhat helplessly and turned to say to Song Qingming and his companion:
"Since we have already agreed beforehand, I think let Junior Sister Gao keep this item first. After we leave here, we will distribute it again. Do the two Fellow Daoists have any objections?"
Although Fang Wuqian's eyes had never left the Treasure Light Cauldron, he had always been obedient to Duan Xueyi's words along the way, so he immediately nodded to indicate no objection.
"Let's follow what the Fairy said, I have no objection!" Song Qingming also followed Fang Wuqian and replied with a smile.
Seeing that the opinion had been unified, Gao Yuyao generously put the Treasure Light Cauldron into her storage bag, and then the four turned and left this hall to look at other positions, seeing if there were any missed treasures.
Having obtained a treasure like the Treasure Light Cauldron as soon as they came in, the group's faces were now full of smiles, full of expectations for other treasures in the cave dwelling.
This cave dwelling could use a second-tier high-grade magic tool as an array eye. It seemed that what was said on Gao Yuyao's hairpin was not false. It was very likely that this place was once a Core Formation cultivator's cave dwelling.
It was just that after the group searched for a circle, they discovered that aside from this Treasure Light Cauldron in the hall, there were only some rotten books and sundries left, and no more valuable spirit objects appeared.
It looked like no one had come in here for at least several hundred years. What exactly the senior left in the cave dwelling was truly hard to say.
Fortunately, aside from these useless things in the cave dwelling hall, there were three tightly closed stone gates, which looked like the places where the cave dwelling owner practiced in closed-door cultivation, or refined pills, refined tools, etc. It seemed there was still a very high probability of finding good things.
"Everyone, this stone gate is a bit sturdy. Let me handle the matter of opening the gate!" After Fang Wuqian finished speaking, under the expectation of the crowd, he patted the spirit beast bag at his waist and released a tall green ox.
This green ox demon beast looked like its level was not high, only a first-tier high-grade demon beast, but it was incomparably powerful when moving. Seeing it retreat a few steps, it quickly began to accelerate and run forward, and its huge body instantly hit the first stone gate.
Only hearing a "rumbling" sound that shook the earth and mountains, that stone gate was easily smashed into a pile of broken stones by Fang Wuqian's green ox demon beast like a wooden board.
Seeing that his spirit beast didn't let everyone down, Fang Wuqian stepped forward quickly, waved his sleeves, cast a spell to release a burst of light wind to blow away the dust that had risen in front, and made a "please" gesture to the crowd with a smiling face.
"Hehe! Everyone, please!"
The four walked forward one after another. After entering the first stone gate and seeing the scene inside clearly, Song Qingming and the others showed expressions of surprise one after another.
"This, seems to be a spirit herb garden?"
Unexpectedly, this stone gate actually hid a spirit herb garden with a very large area, which truly surprised the four, and they couldn't help but let out a sigh of exclamation.
The space of this spirit herb garden was far larger than the hall outside. The ground, which was ten-odd zhang in radius, was planted with all kinds of fairy herbs and spirit medicines, and the spiritual energy inside was far denser than outside.
However, it was a pity that because no one had taken care of these herbs here for a long time, the vast majority had lost their spiritual energy and withered. Only the middle position still had some spirit medicines glowing with spiritual light.
The group ignored the spirit medicines around that were of no value and went directly to the middle position of the spirit field, discovering that the spiritual energy here was even more abundant than in other places. It seemed that a magic array like a gathering spirit array had been specially set up under the spirit field.
This small piece of land was planted with a total of eight spirit medicines. Although Song Qingming couldn't recognize their names at a glance, judging from the aura emanating from the spirit medicines, the quality of these spirit medicines was not low, at least second-tier spirit medicines or above.
Especially the two snow-white spirit flowers on the far left, Song Qingming looked at their grade, which seemed to be about the same as the third-tier Sky-Mang Flower he had seen when he went to pick herbs with the Huang family. It was very likely that they were also third-tier spirit medicines.
Before Song Qingming could recognize this item, Gao Yuyao on the side saw these two spirit flowers and suddenly shouted with joy, "Could this be the third-tier Snow Dragon Flower? Senior Sister Duan, I shouldn't have recognized it wrong, right? I didn't expect that there were actually two third-tier spirit medicines hidden here."
"Fellow Daoist Gao, you say these two spirit medicines are third-tier spirit medicines? Then we have truly had great luck this time." Fang Wuqian on the side heard Gao Yuyao shout this and also became excited.
"Not bad! It is indeed the third-tier Snow Dragon Flower. It's just a pity that these two spirit medicines have been left unattended for a long time, and their spirituality has been damaged somewhat. It is very difficult to use them as main medicine for refining pills, and they can only be taken back to my master to be used as auxiliary medicine for refining other high-level spirit pills."
Also as an alchemist, Duan Xueyi's alchemy level was much higher than Gao Yuyao's, and her identification of various spirit medicines was naturally more precise.
Under her guidance, the few soon discovered that there were some light yellow spots on the leaves below these two Snow Dragon Flowers, which were the obvious characteristics of the loss of spirituality in spirit medicines. And it was not just the Snow Dragon Flower; the other few spirit medicines also had some such spots in different positions.
Duan Xueyi sighed softly and said again, "It seems that the owner of this cave dwelling should also be an alchemist. The spirit medicines planted here should all have been prepared by him for refining pills back then. It's just a pity that we came late. These years, no one has taken care of them, and they have all been exhausted. Even the spirit medicines that are still alive now have damaged spirituality and cannot show their original value."
Once the spirituality of ordinary spirit medicines is damaged, as Duan Xueyi said, the original medicinal effect will be affected to some extent, and the value of the spirit medicines will be greatly reduced.
However, even so, these spirit medicines can still be exchanged for quite a few spirit stones when taken outside, especially those two third-tier Snow Dragon Flowers. Even if the medicinal properties are damaged somewhat, taking them directly to the Carefree Sect's Merit Pavilion can still be exchanged for quite a few good things.
Duan Xueyi and Gao Yuyao took out a few jade boxes and carefully picked these spirit medicines. Being able to obtain these spirit medicines here, the four people present were already very satisfied.
