Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“If this bottle of Little Origin Pill is sold in the black market’s auction house, it can be sold for at least a hundred spirit stones.”
Wang Lan stood up and walked to Li Yuanqing with the bottle. He slowly placed the bottle in front of Li Yuanqing.
“If you trust me and can tell me some news about that huge spirit fruit, this bottle of Little Origin Pills will be yours.”
...Li Yuanqing sat there and did not look at the bottle of pills. Instead, he looked at Wang Lan quietly.
“Senior, I don’t understand what you mean.”
“Little friend, are you still trying to lie to me? Do you know that although your concealment technique and transformation technique are superb enough, my nose is famous for being sensitive? The smell on your body is too strong.”
“Then how can you be sure that I have something you want? If I bring this bottle of pills and leave, where will you find it?”
Wang Lan suddenly laughed out loud. Her laughter was more or less arrogant.
“Where do you think you can escape to?”
“Maybe it’s a place that Senior can’t find.”
Wang Lan nodded slightly and looked at the pill bottle in his hand. “Perhaps you can indeed escape to a place I can’t find, but it’s not for this bottle of pills.”
“I wonder how much Senior wants to know about the clues of that huge spirit fruit?”
At this point, Li Yuanqing no longer avoided it. He took the small bottle and played with it in his hand. He even poured out a pill and swallowed it.
This action stunned Wang Lan. This pill was worth at least six to seven spirit stones. This kid had eaten it so casually. He was indeed generous.
Wang Lan thought to himself that he was not wrong. This kid’s background was indeed extraordinary.
Li Yuanqing swallowed a Little Origin Pill and instantly felt a rich heat in his stomach. The intense energy surged into his limbs, filling his entire body with powerful strength.
This pill said that it could recover 10% of one’s strength. The speed was quite fast. It instantly sent power to every limb. If he took one during a battle, it would also have some effects of strengthening his strength.
Wang Lan narrowed his old eyes and smiled.
“It seems that you’ve eaten a lot of pills. You have such a cultivation at such a young age. I’m afraid it’s a pity for you to be a servant here.”
Li Yuanqing slowly stood up. He had already put away the small bottle. He looked straight into Wang Lan’s eyes and said to her, “Senior, if you want to know the whereabouts of the huge spirit fruit, I can tell you.”
“Alright! I’ll give you an additional spirit stone for every fruit in the future!”
Li Yuanqing raised his hand to stop him. “I’m not very interested in spirit stones. However, there’s one thing that Senior can help with.”
Wang Lan looked at Li Yuanqing with interest. This kid was getting more and more interesting.
“I wonder what you’re talking about.”
“Actually, it’s very simple.” Li Yuanqing looked up at the huge alchemy furnace behind Wang Lan.
Wang Lan also took a look and said teasingly, “Little friend, don’t tell me you want my Silver Dragon Alchemy Furnace? Then I might as well tell you. Even if you take my life, I won’t frown. But this Silver Dragon Pill Furnace. No one can have any ideas!”
Li Yuanqing smiled at Wang Lan and said, “Senior, I’m afraid you’ve misunderstood me. Senior’s alchemy furnace is indeed a supreme treasure. I naturally won’t have any designs on it. I really want to become a true alchemist and want to ask you for help.”
“Alchemist?” Wang Lan’s eyes revealed a hint of mockery. “Don’t tell me you want to rely on your job to become an alchemist?”
“Senior, you don’t have to worry about that. It’s just that my master was once an alchemist, but my master left early and didn’t bring me to the righteous path. Now that there’s such an opportunity, I naturally want to take advantage of it.”
“I see.” Wang Lan nodded gently. He looked at Li Yuanqing and said, “Your aptitude is indeed not bad and you’re strong enough. Moreover, you’re not old. Now is a good time to learn alchemy. However, since the person behind you has planted a huge spiritual fruit, why don’t you ask him and let me do it for you?”
“This is my private matter. Senior, you don’t need to know, right? You just need to tell me if you have this method.”
Wang Lan thought for a moment and looked at Li Yuanqing. “I have a way. If you want to be an alchemist, you naturally have to go to the Alchemy Pavilion to pass the assessment to obtain the reputation. I can introduce you to the Alchemy Pavilion, but I can’t help you with the assessment.”
“That’s enough!”
“Then what about the huge spirit fruit?”
“Senior, you can go back first and wait for a while. Then you can go to the black market three days later. At that time, someone will bring the Giant Spirit Fruit to trade with you.”
“How many are there?”
“It will be a number that can satisfy Senior.”
“Alright!”
With Li Yunqing’s promise, Wang Lan did not stay in the medicinal field anymore. He had been busy here for two days and realized that he could not figure it out no matter how hard he tried. This huge spirit fruit was still a problem that he could not solve.
However, since he had accidentally encountered Li Yuanqing, he naturally did not have to worry about the number of Spirit Gathering Fruits in the future. He did not have to think about how to nurture them in the short term.
Although Wang Lan had left, he had left behind a mess. He had been busy destroying the medicinal field every day, causing the entire place to be in chaos.
Countless medicinal herbs had been destroyed.
However, with Wang Lin’s instructions, Li Yuanqing felt that this might not be a bad thing. Since all the losses could be blamed on Wang Lan, things would be easy.
Li Yuanqing took out an entire bottle of Divine Origin Water. His body hung in midair, and under his feet was a pool in the air. This pool was a thousand feet square.
Li Yuanqing poured the entire bottle of Divine Origin Water into the huge pool. After a while, the water was mixed evenly.
Countless transparent pipes stretched out from the pool and watered the injured or slightly damaged medicinal herbs.
This method was extremely efficient. Soon, the entire medicinal field was watered. As long as there were any injured herbs, they became Li Yuanqing’s target.
After drinking the diluted Divine Origin Water, the herbs below began to grow crazily.
In order not to restrict their growth, Li Yuanqing even undid all the protective array formations outside, making their growth even more unrestrained. Many medicinal herbs surged into the sky and turned into huge plants, as if they wanted to reach the sky.
All of this happened very quickly. After Li Yuanqing collected the mountain of fruits, he eliminated the plants that had already grown.
These medicinal herbs and plants were all specially cultivated and could only be produced once. It was not a pity to directly remove them. The sect would distribute new ones every month. Moreover, the heavy losses this time were not Li Yuanqing’s problem. He could completely apply for compensation from the sect.
Li Yuanqing looked at the mountain of fruits in front of him and smiled.
At first, he thought that this crazy old man, Wang Lan, was too annoying. Now, he inexplicably liked this old fellow.
“If Wang Lan can come once a month, wouldn’t that save time and effort?”
Li Yuanqing pondered silently. Initially, he was still thinking of ways to chase Wang Lan away. But he wasn’t thinking like this now, he was thinking of ways to trick this old man.
When Zhao Baoyun arrived at the Jiuyuan Medicinal Garden again, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Li Yuanqing clearly saw sweat on Zhao Baoyun’s forehead and his face turned green.
“Senior Brother, what’s wrong?”
Li Yuanqing stood at the side and asked carefully.
Zhao Baoyun felt as if his throat was caked. His mouth was dry, and he finally squeezed out a voice after a long time.
“How… How did this happen?”
Li Yuanqing took out the excuse he had prepared earlier and explained.
“Ever since Elder Wang arrived, he has been working hard in the field. He even took some random water to water it. Many of these herbs have been watered to death, and some of them look strange.”
“Where are the herbs? Where did they go?”
“I don’t know what use Elder Wang has for those herbs, but he dug them all up and left behind a bottle of pills before he left, saying that he wanted to make up for the sect’s losses.”
As Li Yuanqing spoke, he took out the bottle of Little Origin Pills. There were only ten of them, and he had secretly kept five.
Zhao Baoyun opened the bottle and saw the rich medicinal fragrance inside. It woke him up for the time being.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Although these Little Origin Pills were precious items, they were only worth the money of a medicinal seedling after destroying his medicinal field.
Li Yuanqing asked Zhao Baoyun worriedly, “Senior Brother, what should we do about the offerings this month? I’m new and I’m afraid…”
Zhao Baoyun swallowed hard and said to him, “Don’t be afraid! Elder Wang is our sect’s esteemed guest. His losses will be borne by the sect. I’ll count all the medicinal herbs lost later. It won’t be on you.”
“Thank you so much, Senior Brother. I’ve been in fear for the past few days. I wondered what would happen if I couldn’t pay my offerings this month.”
Zhao Baoyun frowned and came to the entrance of the valley. He began to count the losses below.
“This old man wasn’t like this before.” He muttered complaints as he looked at the tragic scene.
In the past, when the old man came, he would at most use some medicinal herbs on the spot. However, this time, it was as if he was cultivating here and blew up the entire medicinal herb field.
However, it might be because the old man felt a little guilty that he left behind such a bottle of pills as compensation.
In the past, Wang Lan would never take the initiative to leave behind any pills or make up for it.
At most, he would refine pills and prioritize trading with their sect. This was already a huge discount.
“Why does the growth of these herbs seem to be slower than before?”
Zhao Baoyun frowned as he looked at the scene in the medicinal field in front of him. The spiritual energy that was so dense that it could drip water in the past had become much thinner.
The spiritual energy was now covered in a thin layer. The medicinal herbs that were originally very vigorous had withered a little.
Li Yuanqing explained, “I don’t know what Old Senior did either, but he has been busy in this medicinal field for a long time. I think he must have planted something, right?”
“I see.”
Zhao Baoyun carefully checked all the medicinal fields.
In the end, he recorded his losses and left in a hurry.
After sending this senior brother off, Li Yuanqing hurriedly returned to the medicinal field.
Li Yuanqing began to worry as he looked at the herbs that had clearly dried up.
The medicinal herbs grew too fiercely after consuming the Divine Origin Water. Not only did they absorb a large amount of spiritual energy from the mineral vein underground, but they also snatched away more than half of the spiritual energy gathered by these array formations.
This caused the surrounding medicinal herbs to lose a lot of spiritual energy sources, causing their growth to slow down.
From the looks of it, it could not be too heavy in a medicinal field. Moreover, the frequency had to be within a safe range. Otherwise, it would not be worth it if he sucked the herbs beside him to death.
A thousand miles away, in a dark cave abode in the core area of the five clouds.
A group of Martial Yuan Sect disciples was busy. At this moment, a group of people gathered in front of them, arguing enthusiastically.
“How is it possible that no one crawled into the mineral vein? If outsiders didn’t steal our spiritual energy, how could so much spiritual energy be sucked away from this mineral vein?”
“But after our people checked, there were indeed no traces of damage. It’s more like the array formation above has absorbed too much.”
“But the Eighteen Yuan line is all medicinal gardens. Even if those herbs grow fiercely, how much can they absorb?”
“Is it possible that someone used the spirit gathering array of that medicinal herb to secretly absorb the spiritual energy in the mineral vein?”
“If that’s the case, it’s still possible. However, only plants can absorb and use that spirit gathering array. Who can use it to steal spiritual energy?”
“Well…”
For a moment, everyone fell silent. They really could not understand why the Eighteen Yuan spirit vein, which had not had any problems for a long time, had suddenly lost a large amount of spiritual energy.
“Pay close attention first. When the next time the spiritual energy disappears greatly, control the Eighteen-Yuan line. We must find the reason for the loss of this spiritual energy.”
