Yellow Middle Plum

Upon hearing Luo Qing's question, the "Fairy Xihua" sitting opposite Luo Qing smiled, neither denying nor affirming it.

Instead, he pointed a finger into the distance, towards the land beyond the small lake at the foot of the mountain, and asked:

"Daoist Luo, what do you think of the flowers, plants, trees, fruits, and Spiritual Root in my Jade Pool Immortal Realm?"

Luo Qing had no idea what Fairy Xihua was up to, given her irrelevant answer.

However, he still nodded in approval and said:

"These are all rare spiritual plants, even immortals and gods cannot obtain them. I have traveled to many places in the Primordial Wilderness, and this is the first time I have seen so many Innate Spiritual Root at the same time!"

Upon hearing Luo Qing's answer, Fairy Xihua smiled. She pressed her finger down slightly and continued to ask:

"What does Fellow Daoist Luo Naluo think of my lake?"

"Top-grade Heaven and Earth Divine Water, the Three Lights Divine Water. It can revive withered grass and bring back to life even the most skeletal remains; it can be considered one of the most supreme treasures in the Primordial Wilderness."

Fairy Xihua did not express satisfaction with the answer, and continued to ask:

"Fellow Daoist, what do you think of this sacred mountain beneath your feet?"

"The Five-Colored Ultimate Treasure Five-Colored Divine Mountain, formed from the myriad essences of the Innate Five-Colored Earth, is no less powerful than the Three Lights Divine Water."

After three questions and three answers, Luo Qing was genuinely confused about what the "West Queen Mother" was doing.

Is this flaunting wealth? There's no need for that!

Seeing a hint of confusion flash in Luo Qing's eyes, Fairy Xihua smiled.

She stretched out a jade-like hand, palm up, and opened it towards Luo Qing.

Just as Luo Qing was wondering what Fairy Xihua was up to.

A yellow plum with nine illusory shadows suddenly fell from the Yellow Middle Plum Spiritual Root above.

It just so happened to fall into the hands of Fairy Xihua.

After acquiring Yellow Middle Plum, Fairy Xihua glanced at Luo Qing and asked again:

"Daoist Luo, do you recognize this Spiritual Root beside you, and this spiritual fruit in my hand?"

"I have heard that there is a top-tier Heavenly Spiritual Root in the Primordial Wilderness world. This Spiritual Root has three shadows when it blooms and Nine Shadows when it bears fruit."

The flowers and fruits both contain the characters for "Yellow Center," hence the name of this Spiritual Root: Yellow Middle Plum.

"I see the words 'Huangzhong' on the fruit in the fairy's hand. Could this fruit be the Yellow Middle Plum?"

As Luo Qing spoke, his gaze turned to Fairy Xihua, as if asking a question.

Fairy Xihua was somewhat surprised by Luo Qing's answer.

Since its birth, the Yellow Middle Plum Spiritual Root has been hidden deep within this Jade Pool Grotto-Heaven.

It was completely unknown to outsiders, but the "Luo Qing" in front of him recognized it.

Isn't that strange and bizarre!

However, Fairy Xihua did not show any curiosity on her face, but nodded in acknowledgment.

"Fellow Daoist, you truly have excellent insight! You've pinpointed the origin of this Spiritual Root in a single sentence!"

"Indeed, the Spiritual Root beside us is indeed called Yellow Middle Plum, and this spiritual fruit is also the fruit of Yellow Middle Plum."

"This Spiritual Root will blossom in one cycle, bear fruit in one Kalpa Cycle, and mature in another cycle. It will take three cycles to produce nine fruits."

"A mere whiff of it can grant immortals ten thousand years of cultivation. Consuming even one pill will instantly make one Great Luo Immortal."

Fairy Xihua spoke gently as she introduced the "Yellow Middle Plum" Spiritual Root to Luo Qing.

His casual tone made it sound as if he were describing an ordinary fruit tree.

When Luo Qing heard about the effects of Yellow Middle Plum, his heart skipped a beat, and he almost lost his composure.

Is it so easy to become Daluo Golden Immortal? Can it be done with just a top-tier Innate Spiritual Root spiritual fruit?

Luo Qing's eyes couldn't help but gleam with Azure Light, as he tried to analyze this "Yellow Middle Plum" fruit.

Fortunately, Luo Qing held back, and the Azure Light in his eyes flashed and disappeared in an instant.

The Grand Unity Dao Fruit that one has been striving for is right before one's eyes; no one could remain calm under such circumstances.

However, Luo Qing glanced at the Yellow Middle Plum Fruit carefully for a moment, then looked up at the eight plums still hanging on the Yellow Middle Plum.

I couldn't help but shake my head.

In the Primordial Wilderness, where would you find something so cheap? A single spiritual fruit could instantly make someone a Daluo Golden Immortal?

Even the most advanced elixir refined by Laozi, a Sage of later generations, the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir, could at most make someone instantly become Golden Immortal.

Luo Qing did not believe that a top-tier Innate Spiritual Root could create nine Daluo Golden Immortal in just three eons.

If that's true, then Yellow Middle Plum wouldn't be considered to have a top-tier Innate Spiritual Root.

Rather, it is a primordial Spiritual Root that can rival Innate Supreme Treasure.

Luo Qing shook his head and asked:

"Isn't there something wrong with using this spiritual fruit to achieve the Daluo Golden Immortal realm?"

Fairy Xihua showed an approving look on Luo Qing's face.

It is truly remarkable that one could remain so calm in the face of the temptation to instantly become Daluo Golden Immortal, and even discover such an impropriety.

"Fellow Daoist's guess is correct. This spiritual fruit possesses Nine Shadows, each shadow lasting one yuanhui. Those who consume this fruit and achieve the Daluo Golden Immortal status will only maintain their Great Luo cultivation for nine yuanhui."

After nine cycles, his cultivation will naturally return to normal, and all the Great Luo realms will seem like a dream or a bubble.

Moreover, there are many drawbacks. Each living being that consumes this fruit only has one chance to experience the cultivation level of nine Yuanhui Great Luo.

During the trial period, one's cultivation level will not improve in the slightest; one will only be at the bottom of the Great Luo realm!

However, this also gives mediocre and hopeless Daluo Golden Immortal an opportunity to climb the Great Dao.

Having gained experience and insights from nine Yuanhui of the Great Luo path, it is not impossible to re-attain the Grand Unity Dao Fruit in the future."

Upon hearing Fairy Xihua's description of the effects of Yellow Middle Plum, Luo Qing felt a pang of disappointment.

So that's how one can instantly become Great Luo.

If that's the case, then it makes sense and fits Yellow Middle Plum's status as a top-tier Innate Spiritual Root.

The rumored effects are simply too exaggerated.

This has made it seem like even the Daluo Golden Immortal in the Primordial Wilderness are worthless, and can be bought in bulk.

Even if what Fairy Xihua said is true, this Yellow Middle Plum is already extremely precious.

Few immortals who can cultivate to the level of Primordial Unity Golden Immortal are truly fools.

If one has nine eons to experience the life of Daluo Golden Immortal, then their chances of attaining the Great Luo in the future will be infinitely increased.

This effect is not very beneficial for those with exceptional talent, as the nine-yuanhui period is too long.

This is also one of the reasons for Luo Qing's disappointment; it seems to have little effect on him.

As if sensing Luo Qing's disappointment, Fairy Xihua smiled gently and pointed to the Yellow Middle Plum spirit fruit she was holding.

"Fellow Daoist, don't be disappointed yet. Besides being edible, these Yellow Middle Plum have another use for us cultivators."

Luo Qing was taken aback; this had indeed touched upon a blind spot in his knowledge.

"Oh? What's its purpose?"

"Enlightenment! This Yellow Middle Plum Fruit can be used as a bridge to enlightenment, connecting one to the Great Dao."

This single spiritual fruit can save cultivators like you and me Taiyi of thousands of years of arduous cultivation and enlightenment.

How much one can obtain depends on their comprehension. The higher one's comprehension, the stronger the effects of this spiritual fruit.

Moreover, this method of utilizing spiritual fruits can be repeated without any side effects.

Luo Qing, who was initially disappointed, immediately brightened up upon hearing Fairy Xihua's words.

Primordial Wilderness Primordial Wilderness time is the least valuable, yet it is also the most valuable.

The phrase "worthless" refers to the fact that the Primordial Wilderness era was so long that tens of thousands of years are simply insignificant.

The most valuable thing is that if you can be one step ahead of others in terms of cultivation, you will always be ahead.

Why is Hongjun destined to become the Ancestor of the Immortal Path and able to Merge with Dao? It's because he was the first Sage in the Primordial Wilderness, with no rivals whatsoever.

Luo Qing now desperately hopes to accelerate his cultivation.

Just as Luo Qing was thinking about how to ask Fairy Xihua for two Yellow Middle Plum...

The Fairy Xihua seemed to know Luo Qing Luo Qing inside and out, smiling as she placed the Yellow Middle Plum in front of him.

That wasn't all. Fairy Xihua beckoned with her finger, and two more Yellow Middle Plum Fruit fell in front of Luo Qing.

Along with the three Yellow Middle Plum, an ordinary jade Jade Bowl and a Five-Colored Stone were also pushed in front of Luo Qing.

"Here are three Yellow Middle Plum, half a lake of Three Lights Divine Water, and a Five-Colored Divine Mountain that gave birth to the Five Elements Origin Divine Stone."

Fellow Daoist already knows the effects of Yellow Middle Plum and Three Lights Divine Water. And this Five Elements Origin Divine Stone is also a rare treasure of heaven and earth.

If this stone is buried in the earth's veins, it will evolve into a Five-Colored Divine Mountain a thousand feet high within ten thousand years. The wonders of this mountain are self-evident; I need not elaborate, fellow Daoist, you are already aware of them."

Luo Qing was truly astonished by Fairy Xihua's extravagant gesture.

These three items combined, even if not comparable to a top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure, are still quite formidable.

And what is Fairy Xihua's purpose...?

Fairy Xihua didn't keep Luo Qing waiting long and directly revealed her purpose.

"What I seek is an item that Daoist Luo possesses, an item with which I have a predestined connection! I wonder if Daoist Luo would be willing to make this deal with Xihua?"

Fairy Xihua smiled and stared intently into Luo Qing's eyes.
