Wood Spirit Seed

"Bang!!!"

Watching Bulbasaur defeat another hundred-year Gale Wolf under Qing Mu's command, Qing Tianfeng could not help but sigh. "Bulbasaur truly is a marvelous Martial Soul."

"Yes. When I first saw Mu'er awaken a Detached Beast Martial Soul, my heart skipped a beat. After all, the previous example did not seem very promising."

Seeing this, Xu Yao smiled as well.

However, upon hearing this, Qing Tianfeng snorted disdainfully. "Yu Xiaogang only had 0.5 levels of Innate Soul Power. How could he compare to our son?

Moreover, after seeing Bulbasaur's performance, I seriously suspect that the Gong Pig Martial Soul was not as useless as the rumors claimed. Its Innate Soul Power was simply too low for it to display its characteristics."

Yu Xiaogang was not unknown among Spirit Masters. Not only had he published the so-called Ten Competitivenesses of Martial Souls, he was also the Corner of Wisdom among the Golden Iron Triangle. Together with Flender and Liu Erlong, he had once used the Three-in-One Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Golden Sacred Dragon, to withstand a Soul Douluo head-on without falling behind.

That battle alone had been enough to make the Golden Iron Triangle one of the continent's top combat forces and bring them widespread fame.

After all, there were only a handful of Titled Douluo publicly known today. Even the sect leaders of the renowned Lower Four Sects were merely Soul Douluo.

"That's true."

Xu Yao nodded in agreement.

But immediately afterward, Qing Tianfeng frowned. "It has been so long. Why have we still not found any trace of that Wood Attribute treasure? Could Mu'er's guess have been wrong?"

"Da Na, Da Na~"

Just then, Bulbasaur suddenly cried out, and Qing Mu's excited voice reached his ears.

"Dad, Mom, come quickly!"

Upon hearing Qing Mu's voice, Qing Tianfeng and Xu Yao immediately leaped over to his side.

Qing Tianfeng asked with concern, "Mu'er, what is it?"

Pointing at the small pond ahead, Qing Mu said to Qing Tianfeng, "The area around that pond has the densest Wood Attribute energy in the entire valley. The treasure should be near it."

"Oh?"

Hearing Qing Mu's words, Qing Tianfeng was delighted and quickly looked toward the small pond Qing Mu had indicated.

Though it was called a small pond, it was actually a somewhat dried-up little lake. Dense reeds and other weeds grew along the water's edge, nearly concealing the entire lake. If one was not careful, it really could have been overlooked.

Qing Tianfeng then cautiously approached the pond. Only after confirming that there was no danger did he allow Qing Mu and the others to come closer.

What happened next completely stunned them.

The water in the small pond emitted a faint green glow. Carried by the breeze, it was absorbed by the vegetation along the shore, making the plants increasingly lush and verdant. It even faintly resembled Qing Mu's Grassy Terrain.

"It seems the Wood Attribute treasure you mentioned, Mu'er, is at the bottom of this lake!"

Recovering from his shock, Qing Tianfeng spoke excitedly.

Seeing such a scene, anyone with a functioning brain would know that this place was extraordinary. Combined with Qing Mu's earlier deduction, the location of the treasure was beyond doubt.

"This place's aura... I have a feeling that cultivating here would be faster than cultivating in the Mimic Training Ground at home."

Xu Yao took a deep breath of the surrounding air. The dense wood-element energy and life force actually left her somewhat intoxicated.

However, just as Qing Tianfeng was preparing to dive into the water to search for the treasure, Qing Mu stopped him.

Under Qing Tianfeng's puzzled gaze, Qing Mu said, "Diving into the lake could be risky. I have a better way."

Qing Mu then called out to Bulbasaur, "Bulbasaur, use Vine Whip to bring up the treasure at the bottom of the lake."

"Da Na!!!"

After hearing Qing Mu's command, two green vines grew from Bulbasaur's neck and burrowed into the ground before it.

Then, as Bulbasaur's Vine Whips continuously extended, they swiftly headed toward the bottom of the lake.

Normally, it would undoubtedly be difficult to retrieve something out of sight using Vine Whip. Fortunately, Bulbasaur did not need to rely on vision at the moment.

The immense Wood Attribute energy emitted by the treasure was the best guiding beacon.

A moment later, Bulbasaur's expression turned serious. It swiftly retracted its Vine Whips, revealing two strange seeds that glittered like gemstones before everyone.

When Xu Yao saw the seed on Bulbasaur's Vine Whip, her eyes widened. Covering her mouth, she exclaimed, "Wood Spirit Seed!"

"Wood Spirit Seed?"

Upon hearing this, both Qing Mu and Qing Tianfeng froze. Wood Spirit Seed? What was that?

Seeing their confusion, Xu Yao quickly explained, "The so-called Wood Spirit Seed is a treasure formed from vast amounts of Wood Attribute energy between heaven and earth, along with the life force of plant-type Soul Beasts.

If a Wood Attribute Spirit Master wears this treasure, not only will their cultivation speed greatly increase, but under its accumulated effects over time, their Martial Soul may even undergo a beneficial mutation.

Even I had only heard of such a thing from an elder. I had thought it was merely a legend, but I never expected it to truly exist."

"A beneficial mutation of a Martial Soul? This seed is actually that incredible?"

After hearing Xu Yao's explanation, Qing Tianfeng's heart was thrown into a storm of shock.

One had to know that this was a beneficial mutation of a Martial Soul. It was something countless people could only dream of, and its allure to Spirit Masters was even greater than that of a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone.

Compared with Qing Tianfeng's shock, Qing Mu beside him looked thoughtful. This sounded somewhat like Life Gold, except it was a Wood Attribute version.

Xu Yao continued, "It is only a legend, and whether it is true remains uncertain. But even if this Wood Spirit Seed cannot cause beneficial Martial Soul mutations, the fact that it can greatly increase the cultivation speed of Wood Attribute Spirit Masters already makes it a first-rate treasure."

Aside from unconventional Soul Bones or certain treasures, meditation was basically the only way for Spirit Masters to raise their Soul Power Level. Martial Souls and Innate Soul Power were also nearly impossible to change, which was why Mimic Training Grounds were especially important.

Any faction with even a little influence would have Mimic Training Grounds. Even some mid-tier Spirit Master academies would construct Mimic Training Grounds for their students to cultivate in.

Now that they had the Wood Spirit Seed, Wood Attribute Spirit Masters essentially carried a top-tier Mimic Training Ground with them. Its benefits spoke for themselves.
