After leaving Wind-Mist Island, he returned to Qingyuan Mountain before long.
Upon returning to the family, Chen Nianzhi immediately planted the five mu of Mysterious-Jade Golden Bamboo and those thirty-odd old medicinal herbs in the rear mountain's spiritual herb garden.
After completing this step, Chen Nianzhi tried nourishing the old herbs with primordial violet qi, but hesitated when it came to the Mysterious-Jade Golden Bamboo.
He had only recently become an immortal, and had expended quite a bit of primordial violet qi in succession. There was not much left for him to waste.
After much deliberation, Chen Nianzhi ultimately used only one breath of acquired primordial violet qi to nourish the Mysterious-Jade Golden Bamboo.
After absorbing the violet qi, the Mysterious-Jade Golden Bamboo faintly developed a violet tinge, its color unexpectedly turning violet-gold.
"This Mysterious-Jade Golden Bamboo..."
Looking at the Mysterious-Jade Golden Bamboo that had absorbed primordial violet qi, Chen Nianzhi revealed a hint of surprise.
The primordial violet qi had unlocked the shackles on this Mysterious-Jade Golden Bamboo, yet it seemed to have undergone some unusual mutation. It was not transforming toward Jade-Marrow Golden Bamboo Shoot.
Chen Nianzhi deduced for a moment and roughly concluded that this was a newly born acquired immortal bamboo. Perhaps Purple-Jade Golden Bamboo would be a more fitting name.
"A newly born immortal bamboo, yet not Jade-Marrow Golden Bamboo Shoot. I wonder whether this is a blessing or a curse."
Chen Nianzhi murmured inwardly. After a long while, he shook his head. This Purple-Jade Golden Bamboo might possess extraordinary wonders, but it was not the Jade-Marrow Golden Bamboo Shoot he wanted.
It seemed that primordial violet qi could not be used to cultivate Jade-Marrow Golden Bamboo Shoot.
With that thought, Chen Nianzhi suppressed the matter in his heart and left the spiritual herb garden
