Chapter 117 Three or two peach blossoms outside the bamboo
At this time, some dead vegetation appeared around Wang Daoyuan, and they were all of high grade, and many of them were second-order spiritual plants.
Continuing to move forward, the living vegetation is still the first-grade high-grade, but the grade of the dead vegetation is getting higher and higher, and some second-grade high-grade dead trees have appeared.
He also discovered something wrong. After going dozens of miles into the secret realm, he was surprised not to see a single monster or a native spirit insect.
Could it be that monsters and spiritual insects cannot survive in this secret realm?
However, he has been here for so long without feeling any discomfort.
The soul chasing bees released to explore the path did not behave abnormally.
He used his spiritual consciousness to explore the surrounding area, even the underground, but still could not find any living thing other than vegetation.
The strange environment made him feel hairy all over.
He took out the sharp golden sword and put the jade pendant on his body, ready to deal with sudden dangers at any time.
However, even after coming, he really couldn't bear to leave without a big harvest.
Bite the bullet and continue moving forward, after walking for more than ten miles, he finally found something related to the monster beast - the skeleton of a second-level monster iron-horned ox.
If it weren't for the iconic big horns and the shining metallic light, he wouldn't have been able to recognize the skeleton of what kind of thing it was.
He walked over carefully and touched the skeleton with his sharp gold sword. The skeleton collapsed instantly, and even the big horns were broken.
This may be because he has been dead for too long, and the skeleton has long since decayed. However, it has not been affected by the outside world and has remained the same. Once touched, it shatters.
The iron-horned ox had been dead for a long time, not in a secret place, but had not been touched for a long time.
From this phenomenon, it can be inferred that after the death of the iron-horned bull, almost no monsters or spiritual insects existed here.
But now, this place can obviously support the survival of monsters, beasts and spirit insects, which shows that this place has suffered great changes and then slowly recovered.
To restore a secret realm, a huge amount of spiritual energy is needed, so the extraordinary spiritual land outside can be explained.
Of course, these are just speculations without sufficient evidence.
He walked to a dead spiritual tree and stabbed it gently with the sharp golden sword. The dead spiritual tree instantly turned into a pile of debris.
Wang Daoyuan sighed and said: "It is indeed a spiritual tree that has been dead for a long time. It seems that the accuracy of my guess is still very high."
After marching forward for more than fifty miles, we encountered many dead spiritual trees and monster beast skeletons along the way, all of which were broken into pieces at the touch of a touch.
The concentration of spiritual energy here has reached the level of second-order low-grade spiritual veins, and the living spiritual plants nearby also have second-order spiritual veins.
Directly in front is a bamboo forest, which is a second-level mid-grade spiritual plant - Qingyu Bamboo.
Green Jade Bamboo is not that rare outside. It is often used to refine second-level wood-attribute magic weapons, and its value is quite high.
Seeing the green jade bamboo and thinking of the wood-attribute magic weapon, he discovered a problem in this secret realm. The aura here was actually pure wood-attribute.
Even when you first entered this secret realm, the aura was all of wood attribute, and it was not converted into aura of other attributes.
There should be something in this secret realm that suppresses the mutual transformation of the five elements' spiritual energy.
It's no wonder that there are no living monsters and spiritual insects here. In an environment with incomplete Five Elements, it is difficult for monsters and spiritual insects to survive.
This inability to survive does not mean that other living creatures will die when they come in, but that simply relying on the aura of this place cannot provide for the survival of monsters.
When foreign monsters come in, they will not die immediately, but they will not be able to thrive here.
Monster beasts are different from spiritual plants. Spiritual plants only need wood-attribute aura to survive and reproduce normally.
And monsters, including humans, must have an environment with all five elements in order to live and reproduce.
The five elements can be unbalanced. For example, near earth and fire, the fire aura is strong, but other attribute auras still exist.
The imbalance of the five elements does not matter how serious it is, but all of them must be present.
In an environment like this where there is only wood-attribute aura, monks who practice wood-attribute skills or wood-attribute monsters cannot reproduce, but they can still survive.
Monks and monsters who don't cultivate wood attributes won't survive long here.
This should be the reason why there are lush vegetation here but no monsters.
This environment did not have much impact on Wang Daoyuan.
He possesses the spiritual roots of the Five Elements and has practiced all-attribute exercises of the Five Elements.
As long as the spiritual energy attribute does not fall outside the scope of the Five Elements, he can run his skills to refine the wood attribute spiritual energy into wood attribute spiritual power, and then convert it into other attribute spiritual powers.
The spiritual attributes in his body are also all five elements.
The soul-chasing bee is a spiritual insect without attributes. It has no attributes, that is, it has all five elements. It can refine wood-attribute spiritual energy. Although it cannot convert spiritual attributes at will, it can still survive normally.
However, this special environment of single-attribute spiritual energy is particularly suitable for cultivation.
If a monk majoring in wood-attribute skills came here, even if he had multiple spiritual roots, his cultivation speed would not be much slower than that of the heavenly spiritual roots, and the quality of the condensed true energy would be the same.
Wang Daoyuan is more interested in what suppresses the mutual growth of the five elements.
If it can be used in cultivation, it can cultivate completely pure spiritual power and condense high-quality true energy, and the difficulty of foundation building will be greatly reduced.
Don't let go of the green jade bamboo in front of you. This is a second-level spiritual plant and is extremely valuable.
He planned to dig up a few jade bamboos and transplant them into the Lingzhu space.
However, he underestimated the difficulty of this matter.
Bamboo, a spiritual plant, has the same roots, and the roots of a large bamboo forest are connected together.
To transplant a bamboo, the bamboo whip must be cut off.
How can the bamboo whip of the second-level spiritual bamboo be cut off so easily?
He can only use the second-level low-grade golden sword talisman to attack the bamboo whip. Three golden sword talismans can cut off a bamboo whip.
In the end, he only transplanted one jade bamboo plant and did not dare to consume too many golden sword talismans.
After all, he was in a dangerous situation and needed to keep some second-level talismans to save his life.
Next, we must carefully look for things that suppress the interaction of the five elements.
He had a hunch that this thing was definitely not simple and might be of great use to him.
Walking into the bamboo forest, I found that the concentration of spiritual energy here is still rising.
What he is looking for is probably in the place with the strongest spiritual energy.
After walking in the green jade bamboo forest for half a quarter of an hour, the concentration of spiritual energy around him was already comparable to the second-order mid-grade spiritual veins.
He ordered the soul chasing bees to find the place with the strongest spiritual energy.
The soul-chasing bee brought him to a peach tree.
This peach tree is only over three feet tall and is inconspicuous in the jade bamboo forest.
However, this peach tree has lush branches and leaves, and there are two or three branches with peach blossoms on the crown.
The concentration of spiritual energy near the peach tree is higher than other places, and is already comparable to the second-order high-grade spiritual veins.
Other than that, there is nothing special about this peach tree. It even has no spiritual energy fluctuations, just like an ordinary peach tree.
Using my spiritual sense to detect it, I couldn't find any clues.
He gently poked the peach tree with his sharp golden sword. This peach tree, with lush branches, vibrant branches, and even flowers, turned into debris like the dead wood he encountered before.
