Luo Qing, with an incredulous expression on his face, circled the withered Gourd Vine on the ground three times.

I looked again and again before I was sure I wasn't hallucinating.

He was incredibly lucky to have stumbled upon such a great opportunity.

A top-tier Innate Spiritual Root: Gourd Vine.

Looking at the Innate Spiritual Root on the ground, Luo Qing recalled the descriptions of this Spiritual Root in his mind.

According to legend, the Spiritual Root Gourd Vine did indeed originate from Buzhou Mountain.

The tragic thing is that it died right after birth, leaving behind only six intact Innate Gourd spirit embryos and one gourd spirit embryo with a flawed origin.

And a Innate Gourd Vine.

Looking around, Luo Qing saw seven Treasure Gourd hanging on the Gourd Vine.

There were six large gourds and one small one; the last one at the very end did look a bit malnourished and underdeveloped.

Looking at the seven gourds, Luo Qing's expression was somewhat uncertain.

According to later legends, a group of powerful beings from the primordial Primordial Wilderness used these Innate Gourd embryos to refine six top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure.

However, Luo Qing was also aware of his own limitations. With his current cultivation level, even if he were to pluck six gourds, he would probably find it difficult to refine them into top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Now, Luo Qing was facing a dilemma: what to do with this Innate Spiritual Root.

Based on Luo Qing's observation, the seven Treasure Gourd on the Gourd Vine were clearly not yet ready to ripen and fall from the vine.

But looking at the desolate scenery of this secret realm, one can tell that the Innate Gourd Vine had drained all the essence and spiritual energy of this place.

Even so, this Spiritual Root still looked like it was about to die.

There is nothing left here to nourish the Innate Gourd Vine.

In that case, waiting for the gourd spirit embryo on the Gourd Vine to fall off automatically is anyone's guess, who knows when that will take.

Luo Qing's purpose in coming to Buzhou Mountain was to find the Earth Spirit Pearl.

Even the Innate Gourd Vine cannot delay the search for this target.

However, Luo Qing was unwilling to pluck the gourd embryo from the Gourd Vine ahead of time.

"I wonder if this Innate Gourd Vine can be transplanted?"

Luo Qing looked at the Gourd Vine and muttered to himself.

He had personally transplanted the Netherworld Ghost Willow before.

But this Gourd Vine looked like it was about to die, and Luo Qing was really worried that during the transplantation process, the Spiritual Root might perish first.

In the end, Luo Qing made up his mind to transplant the Innate Gourd Vine.

He couldn't stay here indefinitely waiting for the gourds to ripen.

But there's also the worry that once I leave, I might not be able to find this place again in the Rule Storm.

The only remaining option is to try transplanting this Spiritual Root.

Having made up his mind, Luo Qing no longer hesitated.

Since I already possess the Netherworld Grotto-Heaven, it's easy for me to plan out an area to transplant Gourd Vine.

Luo Qing opened his Eye of the Great Dao and looked at the roots of the Innate Gourd Vine.

Since we are going to transplant this Spiritual Root, it is best not to damage its Spiritual Root.

The roots of the Innate Gourd Vine had spread out three zhang underground, forming a shape the size of a basketball.

They were densely rooted in a ball of dark yellow mud.

"Could this be the Breath Soil?!"

Luo Qing sensed the vigorous vitality of the earth from the mud ball; it must be the life force of the Innate Gourd Vine hanging from this piece of Breath Soil.

Like the Five-Colored Soil, the Breath Soil is a top-tier spiritual soil for cultivating Spiritual Root.

The legendary Breath Soil Essence is formed from the condensed essence of the Breath Soil.

Compared to the Ultimate Treasure soil, the Breath Soil Essence, the Breath Soil does not have the ability to generate automatically; it diminishes as it is used.

This secret space should have originally been filled with Breath Soil.

Unfortunately, the spiritual energy required for the growth of the Innate Gourd Vine is far too immense.

They completely drained the life -Breath Soil within the secret realm.

Upon seeing the Breath Soil ball, Luo Qing's heart suddenly stirred.

He didn't have Five-Colored Soil or Breath Soil Essence, but he did have a Five Elements Origin Divine Stone and half a lake of Three Lights Divine Water!

Just look how well the Yellow Middle Plum and other Spiritual Root grow in the Jade Pool Immortal Realm.

It is known that these two treasures also greatly promote the growth of Innate Spiritual Root.

Thinking of this, Luo Qing took out the Five Elements Origin Divine Stone that he had traded from Fairy Xihua.

Place the Five Elements Origin Divine Stone at the root of the Innate Gourd Vine.

Luo Qing witnessed firsthand that the Innate Gourd Vine trembled slightly, and its branches, leaves, and seven gourds all shook with joy.

The Gourd Vine's roots immediately abandoned the Spiritual Light lit Breath Soil of earth beneath.

Tentacles surged upwards, eventually enveloping the Five Elements Origin Divine Stone into a sphere.

If Luo Qing hadn't Dharma Power to stabilize the Five Elements Origin Divine Stone, it would definitely have been dragged underground by the Gourd Vine roots.

Perhaps it was Innate Gourd Vine could not be dragged or pulled by the Five Elements Origin Divine Stone.

It had no choice but to bring all its buried roots to the surface and take root on the Five Elements Origin Divine Stone.

"Hey! This saves me the trouble of transplanting it myself!"

Luo Qing chuckled, surprised that the Gourd Vine was quite Spiritual Nature.

After all the roots of the Gourd Vine had gathered on the Five Elements Origin Divine Stone.

Luo Qing easily transferred the innate Innate Gourd Vine into the Netherworld Grotto-Heaven.

The Netherworld Grotto-Heaven is 30,000 li in size, and hundreds of thousands of Netherworld Ghosts and Gods live within it.

However, it is also easy to set aside an area to plant the Innate Gourd Vine.

However, to prevent the two top-tier Innate Spiritual Root, the Netherworld Ghost Willow and the Innate Gourd Vine, from fighting over the life force...

Luo Qing specifically found a small lake about one mile in diameter at the edge of the Cave Heaven.

After pouring some of the Three Lights Divine Water from half the lake to fill it up, Luo Qing planted the Innate Gourd Vine by the lake.

Perhaps it is because the Five Elements Origin Divine Stone and the Three Lights Divine Water provide life.

The Innate Gourd Vine, which had been listless and dying, was revitalized as soon as it was planted.

The seven Innate Gourd spiritual embryos glowed with light and began to frantically absorb the endless spiritual energy around them.

Seeing the Innate Gourd Vine regain its vitality, Luo Qing nodded in satisfaction.

If this Gourd Vine is cultivated properly, it can produce seven top-tier Spiritual Treasure Embryo, making it one of the most precious treasures in Luo Qing's possession.

He summoned ten Ghost King from the Netherworld Grotto-Heaven and ordered them to designate this place as a forbidden area, similar to the Netherworld Ghost Willow, forbidding any Ghost Deity from approaching.

Only then did Luo Qing leave the Netherworld Grotto-Heaven and return to the original location of the Innate Gourd Vine.

Luo Qing didn't waste the clump of Breath Soil beneath the ground; he collected it.

Even if this Breath Soil isn't used to cultivate spiritual plants, but rather as a material for Artifact Refining, it's still a top-tier earth-attribute spiritual material.

Using the Eye of the Great Dao, Luo Qing thoroughly inspected the area within a hundred miles once more, and only after confirming that nothing had been missed did he escape from the place again.

Having obtained a top-tier Innate Spiritual Root, the Gourd Vine, in the Land of Rule Storm, Luo Qing was already quite satisfied.

Next, we need to figure out how to leave this place.

Luo Qing had no intention of being trapped in this place for thousands of years.

Three thousand years later.

On the mountainside of Buzhou Mountain lies a place where Divine Treasure was conceived and born.

At that moment, five figures were engaged in a fierce battle, one against four.

One of them was none other than Wu Cangzi, the Grand Unity Golden Immortal who had previously hunted down Luo Qing.

If Luo Qing were to see the four people besieging Wu Cangzi, he would certainly recognize them.

Houtu the Ancestral Witch, Nuwa and Fuxi and Nuwa, were prominently featured.

The two sides, who were previously enemies, are now joining forces to fight against Wu Cangzi, the Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

It's unclear how long the battle lasted between one Grand Unity Golden Immortal and four Peak Taiyi.

Luo Qing wandered through the Rule Storm, searching for a way out, for nearly three thousand years.

Only then, following the unseen guidance of the Great Dao, did they completely escape the Rule Storm.

As soon as Luo Qing rushed out from the edge of the Rule Chaos Land, he immediately spotted five people fighting a fierce battle not far away.

The gods included Wu Cangzi, the Grand Unity Golden Immortal; Nuwa and Fuxi; Houtu, the Houtu the Ancestral Witch; and a Grand Unity Golden Immortal whose aura was unfamiliar.

Luo Qing was first surprised, then delighted.

"What a small world! This is the perfect time to settle scores and avenge our grievances!"
