As Yuan Ming slowly approached, he felt a breath of fresh air blowing into his face. It was invisible and qualityless, but it was refreshing and refreshing. The distracting thoughts in his heart instantly disappeared without a trace.
He stretched out a palm and gently stroked Xiuzhu. Feeling the warm jade-like touch, he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable joy in his heart.
Along the banks of the Bitter Bamboo, hundreds of flowers are blooming, and spiritual grasses are green. They are all grown under the protection of the World Tree. Each one is extremely rare, as if it is a treasure specially designed by nature for this place.
The Five Elements boy was carefully taking care of these spiritual plants by the tree. When he felt Yuan Ming's arrival, he immediately turned around and saluted Yuan Ming respectfully.
"How is the growth of Bamboo Bamboo?" Yuan Ming smiled and waved his hand, indicating that the Five Elements boy did not need to be polite.
"The Bamboo Bamboo has grown to be thirteen thousand years old and is full of vitality." Five Elements Boy replied with a trace of pride on his face.
Later, he reported in detail the status of the other transplanted elixirs. He knew the growth status of each plant very well. Yuan Ming nodded frequently and expressed his appreciation for Five Elements Boy's skill in cultivating spiritual plants.
While the two were chatting, they walked slowly around the World Tree, inspecting the prosperous scene of this elixir.
Suddenly, Yuan Ming's brows raised slightly, and his eyes fell on a figure not far away.
"Why is she here?" Yuan Ming pointed at the figure and asked in surprise.
I saw Qiu Nu sitting cross-legged and practicing with her eyes closed. The cultivation aura exuding from her body was much stronger than before, and she had already reached the level of the late stage of pill formation.
"Five years ago, Qiu Nu was successfully promoted to the fourth level spiritual planter. Senior Ye Xinyao thought that her skills had surpassed his own, so he recommended her to me, and I will continue to teach her." Five Elements Boy explained quickly.
"In just fifteen years, she was able to become a fourth-level spiritual planter. This woman's talent is indeed extraordinary." Yuan Ming sighed.
"Not only that, she has only been following me for five years and has already learned most of the knowledge I have. If it were not for her limited cultivation, I am afraid she would have become a fifth-level spiritual planter. With such a talent, it is impossible to surpass me.
It's just a matter of time." Five Elements Boy nodded in agreement with some emotion on his face.
When Yuan Ming heard this, he became even more surprised.
You must know that the Five Elements Boy is the incarnation of a spiritual plant and has a unique advantage in cultivating spiritual plants. However, Qiu Nu can surpass him in this aspect. This is not something that can only be explained by the wood-attributed heavenly spiritual roots.
Recalling Qiu Nu's gift of communicating with plants, Yuan Ming couldn't help but feel a sense of curiosity.
Generally speaking, Tianling roots only have unique advantages in cultivation, and the ability to awaken innate supernatural powers is often because the spiritual roots have undergone changes, or they possess some kind of special spirit body.
At first, Yuan Ming didn't take Qiu Nu's matter too seriously. Seeing that she had Tianling roots, he handed her over to Ye Xinyao for instruction.
Now that his curiosity has aroused, he can't help but start to wonder, did he miss something?
At this time, Qiu Nu also woke up from her practice and saw Yuan Ming and Wuxing Boy standing in front of her. She stood up in a hurry and saluted them respectfully.
Yuan Ming pondered for a moment, and then used his spiritual consciousness again to carefully explore Qiu Nu's spiritual roots.
After a moment, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Well? Your spiritual roots... although the improvement is not large, it does seem to have been strengthened?" Yuan Ming was surprised and asked.
"Can the Tianling Root also be improved?" Qiu Nu looked confused when she heard this and asked doubtfully.
"According to legend, there is a fairy spirit root on top of the heavenly spirit root, and its potential is ten times that of the heavenly spirit root. However, it is extremely rare for spiritual roots to be promoted, let alone the heavenly spirit root. Have you ever taken it during this time?
What kind of treasures are there?" Yuan Ming asked after a brief explanation.
"No, during this period I have been practicing near the giant tree of the world. I have never left, and I have never secretly taken any elixir." Qiu Nu mistakenly thought that Yuan Ming was suspecting her of stealing the elixir, and quickly shook her head and explained.
:
Yuan Ming frowned slightly, and suddenly he raised his palm lightly, and a force from the source of ten thousand trees slowly poured into Qiu Nu's body.
Instantly, a strong suction force emerged from Qiu Nu's spiritual roots, like an awakened giant beast, greedily devouring this power.
Afterwards, her spiritual roots increased again, much more than before, and the speed of absorbing spiritual energy actually doubled.
Seeing this situation, Yuan Ming suddenly felt astonished.
He thought for a while and decided to continue injecting the original power of ten thousand trees into Qiu Nu's body, wanting to find out and see how far her spiritual roots could absorb it.
In the blink of an eye, Qiu Nu's spiritual roots have continuously absorbed the power of thirteen thousand trees.
When the fourteenth power surged in, the strong suction disappeared instantly, and was replaced by an inexplicable force surging inside Qiu Nu's body.
At this moment, Qiu Nu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and the spiritual energy from the outside world poured into her body like a savage beast, making a whistling sound.
She was taken aback and quickly sat down cross-legged, using exercises to adjust her aura.
Yuan Ming retracted his palm and quietly watched Qiu Nu's changes.
After a while, the aura on Qiu Nu's body gradually dissipated, and she opened her eyes with a look of surprise and joy on her face.
"Sir, my spiritual root has really been promoted!" Qiu Nu stood up excitedly, her eyes flashing with excitement.
"Compared with before, what's the difference?" Yuan Ming asked curiously.
It was also the first time for him to see the legendary fairy spirit root with his own eyes, and he wanted to know if this kind of spirit root had anything special besides being faster in cultivation.
"Now my connection with the wood-attribute spiritual energy has been strengthened dozens of times, and I have also awakened a new magical power!" Qiu Nu replied happily.
Without waiting for Yuan Ming to ask, she squatted down, took out a seed from beside her, and gently buried it in the soil.
Then, she hung her hand over the seed, and a green light emitted from her palm, covering the seed.
In just one breath, Yuan Ming was surprised to see the seeds break out of the ground, quickly grow buds, and bloom in the wind, exuding a rich floral fragrance.
"This magical power is called Qingmu Xuanguang, and it can forcibly ripen the spiritual grass. But each time it is used, it requires a certain lifespan as a price. One year of life can increase the efficacy of the spiritual grass by ten years." Qiu Nu explained.
road.
"Yes, but your lifespan is limited after all and should not be abused." Yuan Ming warned.
"Don't worry, sir. This is just an ordinary flower. Ripening it only consumes a few days of my life." Qiu Nu said quickly.
Yuan Ming nodded and tried to inject the original power of ten thousand trees into Qiu Nu's body again, but he gave up after seeing that her spiritual roots had stabilized and no longer absorbed changes.
He gave some guidance on Ichiban Qiu Nu's practice and asked the Five Elements Boy to continue teaching her the knowledge of a spiritual planter. Then he left the World Tree and went to the Extreme Fire Realm.
The territory of Jihuo is sparsely populated, with only two people living there.
One of them is the waiter.
When Yuan Ming arrived, he was practicing the simplified version of "Mingyue Jue" with his eyes closed, and did not notice Yuan Ming's arrival at all.
Yuan Ming carefully looked at the waiter in the shop and found that his soul power had reached the peak of witchcraft and was only half a step away from the realm of witchcraft.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the improved "Mingyue Jue" was indeed extremely powerful. Although it sacrificed the ability to possess magical powers, the improvement in realm was so amazing.
Of course, this improvement is only shocking on the surface.
After practicing this method, even if you can become a destiny witch, you will only have a strong soul and no actual combat ability at all.
Perhaps because he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the practice of the simplified version of "Mingyue Jue", Dian Xiaosan's cultivation strength has not improved much, but he is closer to the peak of returning to the void.
Yuan Ming made a brief inquiry and learned about the cultivation situation of the mistress in the shop. He quietly left the place without disturbing him and headed to the weapon refining hall.
As soon as he stepped into the main hall, Yuan Ming couldn't help but squint his eyes due to the fiery breath that greeted him.
He raised his eyes and saw Xi Hezi sitting upright in front of Zhou Tian's exquisite cauldron, with a look of thought between his brows.
Sensing Yuan Ming's arrival, Xi Hezi raised his head, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes: "You came just in time, I was just looking for you."
"Could it be that Zhou Tian's exquisite tripod encountered some difficulties in its transformation?" Yuan Ming asked with concern.
Before going into seclusion, he asked Xihezi to carefully select which of the spiritual treasures he owned had the potential to be promoted to the Great Perfection Spiritual Treasure.
In the end, Xihezi chose the Zhoutian Exquisite Cauldron.
"This tripod is already close to the state of Dzogchen. After my careful transformation over the years, it has become perfect. Now, it only needs the last seventh-level spiritual material to fully advance." Xi Hezi shook his head and said slowly.
Slowly.
"Oh? I wonder what kind of spiritual material it is?" Yuan Ming asked.
"This spiritual material is called Nine-Colored Lotus Seeds, and it has the miraculous effect of enlightening spirituality. Of course, if there are spiritual materials with similar effects, it can be substituted, but Nine-Colored Lotus Seeds have the best effect." Xihezi explained.
"Initiate spirituality? Do you want to help this cauldron breed a weapon spirit? I remember that last time you only had to put the weapon soul into it." Yuan Ming was slightly surprised.
"The spiritual treasure from last time has been enlightened, so I can directly inject the soul into it. However, this cauldron has not been enlightened and cannot bear the soul of the weapon that I split." Xi Hezi said with a bitter smile.
Yuan Ming understood in his heart and stopped asking any more questions. He promised to find the required spiritual materials as soon as possible, and then left Shura Palace and returned to the City Lord's Palace.
"I am ordering the city lords of the remaining eighteen cities to send their own bodies to Baidi City to meet me in person in ten days." Yuan Ming summoned Wang Fulong and ordered in a deep voice.
"Sir, according to the rules of the city lords of the cities in the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains, the main body cannot leave the city at will. It may be inappropriate to openly order them to come." Wang Fulong looked embarrassed when he heard this.
"This rule was originally set up to protect the Hongjun Pillar. Now that the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom is weak, it is not a big deal for them to leave the city temporarily. What's more, do you really think those city lords stick to the rules and never leave the city for even half a step?" Yuan Ming was indifferent.
Smiled and said.
Wang Fulong still hesitated: "But..."
"No need to say more." Yuan Ming's eyes flashed with a cold light. After a pause, he said slowly:
"Tell them that in ten days, at least one Dharma monk must be sent to Baidi City to pay homage. If there is any disobedience or shirk, I will personally come to the door and replace it with a competent city lord."
Wang Fulong was shocked by the majesty in his words and trembled all over, but then he showed joy, accepted the promise and left in a hurry.
The moment Wang Fulong left the hall, a familiar voice suddenly sounded: "Haha, I haven't seen you for so many years. Brother Yuan is really getting more majestic."
Yuan Ming raised his eyebrows and recognized Wulu's voice.
He closed his eyes slightly, used the technique of Fierce Eyes and Golden Eyes, and looked around.
