Meanwhile, Shen Luo and Yan Wushi continued flying in a certain direction.
Suddenly, Yan Wushi called for Shen Luo to stop and led him down into a shadowy ravine below.
"Such pure yin baleful qi!"
Before they even reached the ground, they felt the abundant yin qi below. Gusts of chilling wind surged from underground into the air like fountains.
After landing, they looked into the ravine and discovered two plants growing there, each a little over a foot tall.
The plants had leaves but no flowers. Their slightly broad leaves had serrated edges and gave off a faint blue crystalline glow, looking as though they had been carved from ice.
"Ghost-Cutting Grass... Who would have thought something like this would grow here?" Yan Wushi said in surprise.
Shen Luo did not answer. Instead, he carefully counted the leaves on each plant. Both had exactly ten leaves arranged in pairs, making him raise his eyebrows slightly in delight.
"Not just Ghost-Cutting Grass, but the exceedingly rare Ten-Leaf Ghost-Cutting Grass. This is a yin-attribute spirit herb encountered only once in a thousand years. Some true immortal-grade restorative pills require it as an important supporting ingredient before they can be successfully refined," Yan Wushi said happily.
"I had no idea you were proficient in pill refining as well as artifact refining," Shen Luo said, somewhat surprised.
"I wouldn't call myself proficient. I merely know a little. In fact, artifact refining and pill refining have much in common, but... that would take us too far off topic. Fellow Daoist Shen, these two stalks of Ten-Leaf Ghost-Cutting Grass are identical in quality. Why don't we dig them up and take one each?" Yan Wushi cut himself short and suggested.
Naturally, Shen Luo had no objection.
They immediately dug up the spirit herbs, stored them
