Chapter 323: The Origin of the Qilin Immortal Medicine
"Since when do humans need precious dirt for cultivation?" the Ginseng Doll asked in surprise. In its impression, even among cultivators who specifically practiced earth-attribute spells, it had never seen them ask for mud.
The medicine garden lacked everything except mud, especially for them, the Little Medicine Kings, who all used rare mud worth more than a thousand pieces of gold.
"Wait for me." The Ginseng Doll dropped this sentence and trotted into the wooden house. After a clattering sound of searching, it came out with four iron shovels.
"Let the four of us go dig up some rare mud and see which one Lu Yang uses." It kept one shovel for itself and distributed the remaining three to the other three Little Medicine Kings.
The four Little Medicine Kings went their separate ways and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only the Enlightenment Tree, Lu Yang, and the Immortal Fairy in place.
The Ginseng Doll was the first to return, its roots holding up a pile of pitch-black mud: "Come, this is black soil, do you want it?"
Lu Yang had often heard of this kind of mud; it was a type of soil that allowed any spiritual plant to grow vigorously. The land farmed by the Green-Eyed Water Buffalo clan was this black soil.
"This isn't the black soil you see outside; this is the Source of Black Soil. It can be used for farming and can also improve the quality of the surrounding soil, making it become black soil as well."
"The black soil you see outside is black soil assimilated by the Source of Black Soil, or rather, what you see are all black soil derivatives. Black soil derivatives have a limit on the number of times they can be used and a time limit; after being used a few times, they will degenerate into the original land. What I have in my hand is the real black soil, which will never change." The Ginseng Doll was quite proud; this was the type of mud the Little Medicine Kings liked most.
"So magical?" Lu Yang grabbed a handful, closed his eyes, and shoved it into his mouth, opened his mouth, and swallowed the black soil.
The Ginseng Doll and the Enlightenment Tree were dumbfounded. They were still wondering how Lu Yang would use the mud for cultivation, but the result was that he ate it directly?
"How is it, how is it, what's the feeling?" the Immortal Fairy asked impatiently.
Lu Yang smacked his lips, savoring the feeling just now: "No change. My realm hasn't improved, the circulation speed of spiritual power in my body hasn't changed, my strength hasn't increased, my agility hasn't improved, and my spiritual sense strength hasn't changed."
"Is the amount not enough? Eat some more?" the Immortal Fairy suggested.
Lu Yang felt it made some sense, so he ate all the black soil the Ginseng Doll brought in one breath and circulated his cultivation technique for a full cycle: "Still no change."
The Immortal Fairy thought seriously and analyzed: "It's possible that the function of black soil is to improve your talent, for example, turning a three-element root into a two-element root, or a two-element root into a single-element root. You are already a single-element root, which is already the best talent; there is no room for improvement."
Lu Yang looked at the Immortal Fairy suspiciously: "Fairy, haven't you eaten it?"
"What a way to put it. As the head of the ten beauties of ancient times, does it look right for me to eat dirt?"
"And when I learned this divine ability, I had already become an immortal, my cultivation had reached its peak. Why would I eat dirt?"
Lu Yang interrupted the Immortal Fairy's showing off: "Wait, where did the 'ten beauties of ancient times' come from? How come I've never heard of this ranking?"
"I am the number one beauty of ancient times, right?"
Lu Yang looked at the Immortal Fairy's exquisite face, which couldn't be faulted in the slightest, and nodded.
"If there's a first, there's a tenth, right?"
Lu Yang nodded again.
"Although I don't know who the ten beauties of ancient times are, since there is a tenth place, there are naturally ten beauties of ancient times."
"So you made this up?"
"How can you call it making it up? I'm just stating something that definitely exists! Furthermore, there are three people who are definitely among the ten beauties of ancient times: the Qilin Immortal's two wives, and my most devout believer, Qing He."
"Qilin Immortal?" At this time, the Qilin Immortal Medicine came over holding another type of mud and happened to hear the Immortal Fairy talking about the Qilin Immortal.
"Lord Fairy, the Qilin Immortal you mentioned... does He have a relationship with me?"
Seeing the Qilin Immortal Medicine so nervous, Lu Yang remembered a rumor the Ginseng Doll had told him, saying that there were no Qilins in the world, and the Qilins people saw were actually Qilin Immortal Medicine.
The Little Medicine Kings didn't know if there were any real Qilins in the world either.
Lu Yang had also thought so, but later learned of the Qilin Immortal's existence from the Immortal Fairy, which broke this lie.
Lu Yang realized that knowledge that was plain and unremarkable to him, such as the titles of the four ancient immortals, was unknown to even a few people in the Integration stage, and even long-lived beings like the Little Medicine Kings didn't know.
Could the Immortal Fairy really be my golden finger?
"The Qilin Immortal is the only Qilin in the world, and also the only immortal of the demon clan. As for you Qilin Immortal Medicine..."
The Qilin Immortal Medicine asked eagerly: "How did we come to be?"
"The blood of the Qilin Immortal dripped onto a spiritual plant, and that spiritual plant was influenced by the immortal blood, turning into the shape of a Qilin."
The Qilin Immortal Medicine immediately felt its status rise, and its stem straightened.
Lu Yang was shocked: "The Qilin Immortal was injured after becoming an immortal? Who was the enemy?"
Could it be that there existed a terrifying existence in ancient times that threatened ancient immortals, and the Immortal Fairy had been worried that his cultivation was too low, so she hadn't told him, wanting to wait until his cultivation improved before telling him?
The Fairy's intentions were deep, but unfortunately, he had discovered clues!
Should he pretend not to know, or continue to ask?
The Immortal Fairy was also extremely puzzled: "I wasn't there at the time, so I don't know the specific process. It was when the Qilin Immortal was getting married that Ying Tian Xian and the other three made a move and beat the Qilin Immortal up, causing him to shed quite a bit of blood."
"Why make a move on a happy day? I don't understand them. Could it be that this is the legendary 'teasing the bridal chamber'?"
Lu Yang: "..."
Wasn't it that you, Fairy, stirred up trouble at the wedding with immortal fruits, and the two culinary masters who learned from you, the Dragon and Phoenix prodigies, were competing in culinary skills, letting Ying Tian Xian and the other three be judges to taste them? Afterward, Ying Tian Xian and the others thought the source of the trouble was the Qilin Immortal and taught the Qilin Immortal a lesson?
So the Qilin Immortal Medicine appeared at that time.
The Qilin Immortal Medicine in this medicine garden was a descendant of that original one.
"Immortal War?" The Enlightenment Tree and the Ginseng Doll gasped after hearing this. They didn't expect that even after becoming an immortal in ancient times, it was possible to encounter misfortune.
Based on the Immortal Fairy's words, they automatically filled in a scene:
In ancient times, the Qilin Immortal was getting married, and ten thousand demons came to pay homage. The three immortals who were hostile to the Qilin Immortal deliberately provoked the Qilin Immortal on his happy day. For the sake of his beloved and his dignity, the Qilin Immortal was furious. Facing the three immortals, he was completely unafraid and made a fierce move, stirring up huge waves with his supreme immortal power, shocking the ages!
This battle defended his supreme status as the only immortal of the demon clan!
Making an immortal shed blood shows how tragic that battle was!
A true Immortal War!
This Immortal Fairy really didn't treat them as outsiders, revealing a corner of ancient secrets with a casual sentence.
They looked at Lu Yang.
How many ancient secrets must Lu Yang, who followed the Fairy, know, and how many cruel ancient struggles must he have heard about!
