Silver-Lang Cyan-Veined Jade
A month passed quickly.
A Quiet Manor, with pavilions, terraces, and waterside corridors.
Lu Qingshan, Shen Long, Du Yinyin, Han Lun and more than thirty other Nascent Soul Cultivator sat around Zhang Qing stone table, sipping tea and discussing the Dao.
After arriving at the front lines, the Nascent Soul Cultivator fought a fierce battle once, but have not yet fought a second time. In the last battle, a total of ten Nascent Soul Cultivator perished, and both sides suffered considerable losses.
With Spirit Transformation cultivators not making a move, and Nascent Soul Cultivator being the strongest fighting force, the excessive casualties were unacceptable to both sides. Consequently, they dispatched a large number of Core Formation Cultivator to fight and kill each other in open areas, with the Barbarian Race suffering greater losses.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, your Divine Ability Spirit Insect is quite powerful! We captured two Core Formation Cultivator and searched their souls. The Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator who fought you suffered severe damage to his physical body and abandoned it to cultivate in another body. We don't know how long it will take for him to recover his cultivation."
Lu Qingshan said with a smile.
"A fourth-tier Mutated Spirit Insect is extremely rare even in the entire East Hua Cultivation World."
Su Susu said in an envious tone.
"Spirit Insect have relatively weak physical bodies and are only suitable for sneak attacks. They are not so easy to injure Nascent Soul Cultivator in a head-on confrontation."
Shen Long said modestly.
"Fellow Daoist Shen is too modest. The Barbarian Race cultivators have strong physical bodies, which is why they were able to withstand it for so long. If it were an ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator, they would probably have turned into a pool of blood long ago."
Ye Sen analyzed.
A burly man in a golden robe nodded and said, "That's right, Fellow Daoist Shen is quite capable. He actually managed to cultivate a mutated fourth-order Spirit Insect. It's difficult to cultivate even ordinary fourth-order Spirit Insect because their Spirit Insect bodies are too weak and they can hardly withstand the Four-Nine Lightning Tribulation."
Wang Yinghu, born into the Wang Clan of Begonia Valley, Body Cultivator.
"Fairy Su, your Heavenly Sound Sect's Combined Attack Art is amazing! It doesn't even put you at a disadvantage against Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator."
Shen Long changed the subject.
Looking across the entire Gan Yang Realm, combined Combined Attack Art Combined Attack Art are still quite rare, and there aren't many forces that have mastered them.
"The cultivation difficulty is also quite high, requiring five Nascent Soul Cultivator to practice the same Cultivation Method. It's a pity we don't have any suitable Spirit Treasure, otherwise we would have killed even Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators without hesitation."
Su Susu looked confident.
"Your combined attack Cultivation Method is indeed powerful, but it's an indiscriminate attack. Besides the five of you, other fellow cultivators within the casting range will also be affected."
Han Lun pointed out the drawbacks.
The Musical Rhythm are an indiscriminate attack; everyone except the caster will be affected.
"There's nothing we can do; this is a drawback of Musical Rhythm Cultivation Method."
Su Susu said with a regretful tone, as if she had just remembered something, "Fellow Daoist Lu, doesn't your Ten Thousand Swords Sect also have a combined attack Cultivation Method?"
"Yes, it is possible. It requires five cultivators to practice the same Cultivation Method to unleash Combined Attack Art. Who can guarantee that all cultivators practicing the same Cultivation Method will advance to the Nascent Soul Realm?"
Lu Qingshan sighed.
The Ten Thousand Swords Sect does have a combined attack Cultivation Method, but not all disciples who practice it have advanced to the Nascent Cultivation Method Nascent Soul Realm. The two are stuck at the Golden Core Realm and cannot use the Combined Attack Art.
Wang Yinghu nodded and said, "That's true. The combined attack Cultivation Method isn't the most difficult part; what's difficult is that cultivators who practice this Cultivation Method can all reach the Nascent Soul Realm."
After chatting for more than an hour, Lu Qingshan suggested exchanging cultivation resources, and Shen Long and the others did not refuse.
Lu Qingshan flicked his sleeve, and a ray of azure light swept across, revealing a large pile of items on the table: fourth-tier Demon Core, Millennial Spirit Herb, Spirit Wood, ores, and so on.
Several Nascent Soul Cultivator sent telepathic messages to Lu Qingshan Lu Qingshan and showed him some items.
Shen Long traded two early-stage fourth-tier Fire Qilin Beast Demon Core for High-Grade Medicinal Pill, and also obtained two Millennium Golden Flame Ginseng.
The cultivators took out their items to exchange. High-Grade Medicinal Pill for enhancing Law Power were very popular, as were High-Grade Medicinal Pill for detoxification or healing.
About half an hour later, an elderly man of medium build in a green robe stood up and took out dozens of items, mostly materials for refining weapons.
Shen Long's gaze fell on a golden ore the size of a watermelon. He took out a Cyan Jade Box, handed it to the old man in the cyan robe, and his lips moved slightly.
The old man in the green robe smiled and nodded, handing five pieces of golden ore to Shen Long.
After the old man in the green robe finished exchanging items, Shen Long stood up and took out dozens of items. He wanted to exchange them for alchemy materials, especially the thousand-year-old Mystic Ice Jade Lotus.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, how about I trade you a Millennium Mystic Ice Jade Lotus and the Inner Core of a fourth-tier early-stage Fire Qilin Beast for a Blood Snake Fruit?"
Wang Yinghu took out a white Jade Box and a Red Jade Box and gave them to Shen Long using Sound Transmission Talisman.
Shen Long checked and found nothing wrong, nodded, and agreed to the exchange.
He traded most of what he brought out, and in return, he obtained a considerable amount of alchemy materials.
Fairy Skyfire stood up and took out dozens of materials.
"Monster Luring Grass! Monster Luring Grass that's over seven hundred years old."
Han Lun exclaimed in surprise, his eyes burning with desire as he stared at a golden jade box containing a seven-hundred-year-old Monster Luring Grass.
"Change to a miraculous elixir for healing soul injuries, for Nascent Soul Cultivator."
Fairy Skyfire spoke.
She has yet to find a cure for her spiritual wounds, and True Monarch Xuanyang remains unconscious.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator present exchanged bewildered glances. While the Monster Luring Grass was indeed precious, the miraculous elixir that could heal the wounds of the soul was even more valuable.
Shen Long had the Seven-Star Soul-Nourishing Pill, which could heal the soul injuries of cultivators below the Nascent Soul without much problem. However, for Nascent Soul Cultivator whose souls had been severely damaged, the Seven-Star Soul-Nourishing Pill would not be of much help.
It seems that True Monarch Xuanyang has really encountered an accident, and a full recovery won't be easy.
Han Lun carefully examined the Monster Luring Grass, frowned, and said, "Fairy Xu, the roots and stems of your Monster Luring Grass are severely damaged, and it's impossible to continue cultivating it. It's such a pity."
If the Monster Luring Grass is cultivated for a thousand years, it will be much easier to lure and kill Fourth-Rank Spirit Beast.
Upon learning that they could not continue nurturing the Nascent Soul cultivators, the Nascent Soul Cultivator present were greatly disappointed.
Ye Sen communicated with Fairy Skyfire telepathically for a while, then took out a Golden Porcelain Bottle, handed it to Fairy Skyfire, and exchanged it for the Monster Luring Grass.
About half an hour later, the exchange ended, and the cultivators left one after another, returning to their respective residences.
Back at Golden Roc Courtyard, Shen Long entered the Cultivation Room and then went into the Ten Thousand Beast Tower.
He arrived at the second floor, and a loud roar rang out. The Fire Qilin Beast flew over from afar and landed in front of Shen Long in a flash.
The Fire Qilin Beast has grown considerably in size and is currently in the late stage of the Third Rank.
Shen Long took out a golden jade box, opened it, and inside were three red Demon Core, all of which were from fourth-tier Fire Qilin Beast Demon Core.
The Fire Qilin Beast let out an excited roar, and flames surged from its limbs.
Shen Long took out a red Demon Core and fed it, along with a Millennium Golden Flame Ginseng, to the Fire Qilin Beast.
The Fire Qilin Beast opened its mouth and spewed out a thick stream of Crimson Flame, then ran through the Volcano Cluster at great speed.
A short while later, it returned to Shen Long's side, swaying from side to side, and collapsed in front of Shen Long.
Shen Long frowned, examined it carefully, and confirmed that it was alright, only unconscious, before he was relieved.
He slapped a golden Spirit Beast Bag at his waist, and hundreds of thousands of Spirit Ant flew out, with twelve Four-Winged Fire Ant standing out prominently.
The only difference between Four-Winged Fire Ant and Golden-Winged Fire Ant is that they have an extra pair of wings; otherwise, they are identical.
The Golden-Winged Fire Ant Queen flew to Shen Long Shen Long and circled around him.
Shen Long took out a piece of golden ore the size of a watermelon. This was Golden Jade Stone, a fourth-tier refining material.
A blinding red light flashed in his palm, transforming into a giant Red Dragon Claw. The five fingers came together and crushed the golden ore, from which a piece of jade with a faint silver glow rolled out. The surface of the jade had some blue patterns.
"Silver-Lang Cyan-Veined Jade!"
Shen Long was overjoyed. The Silver-Lang Cyan-Veined Jade with Azure Pattern was as famous as the Five-Colored Golden Luan Crystal, both being materials used to refine Spirit Treasure.
The Golden-Winged Fire Ant Queen emitted a sharp, piercing screech, its body shimmering with golden light. Had it not been for its warning, Shen Long would never have discovered the hidden treasure within this piece of Golden Jade Stone; he had indeed struck gold.
Inside the Golden Jade Stone is a small piece of Silver-Lang Cyan-Veined Jade. It is estimated that during Volcano eruption, a piece of Silver-Lang Cyan-Veined Jade was encased in magma, and through evolution, the magma transformed into Golden Jade Stone.
"Not bad, you even noticed that."
Shen Long praised it and let it eat the Golden Jade Stone.
The eight Four-Winged Fire Ant also devoured the Golden Jade Stone, while the other Golden-Winged Fire Ant did not receive this treatment and only consumed Third Rank refining materials.
Shen Long put them back into his Spirit Beast Bag and left the Ten Thousand Beast Tower. He took out a red Communication Disk, cast a spell, and said, "Fellow Daoist Qin, the Three-Leaf Jade Spirit Pill you requested has been refined. Come to the Golden Roc Courtyard to pick it up! I've already spoken to the people below; they'll bring you in when you arrive at the Spirit Control Garden."
"Okay, I'll be right there."
True Monarch Golden Crow agreed.
Shen Long put away the Communication Disk and walked out.
In fact, he had already refined it long ago. With Fourth-Order Spirit Flame at his disposal, his efficiency in refining pills had greatly increased. Now, it would take him less than seven days to refine a batch of Fourth-Order Pill.
He sat down in the stone pavilion, and less than a quarter of an hour later, Qian Dafu led the True Monarch Golden Crow in.
"Fellow Daoist Shen has displayed great power, bringing honor to our Human Race. Congratulations!"
True Monarch Golden Crow smiled and offered his congratulations.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, here is the Three-Leaf Jade Spirit Pill you requested!"
Shen Long took out a Cyan Porcelain Bottle and handed it to True Monarch Golden Crow.
After checking and finding nothing wrong, the True Monarch Golden Crow repeatedly expressed his gratitude.
After chatting for a while, True Monarch Golden Crow took his leave.
Shen Long gave Qian Dafu a few words of advice and then dismissed him.
Shen Long entered a Cultivation Room, sat cross-legged on a Red Prayer Mat, and began to meditate and regulate his breathing.
A quarter of an hour later, Shen Long took out a Blood Flood Dragon Pill, swallowed it, and began to cultivate.
Soon, large amounts of Red Dragon Scales grew on his body, his bones crackled and popped, and a Red Rosy Clouds enveloped his entire body.
