Prolonging Life

Qingyun soared through the clouds and mist, swiftly traversing the sky in the direction of the divination.

After some time, he finally saw Wangqing Mountain in the distance.

Then it continued flying forward, its fingers constantly making calculations.

After a short while, Qingyun finally determined the location.

When he arrived, he quickly landed.

"Huh, this is ginseng, three thousand years old?"

Before he even landed, he had already sensed the location of the ginseng below.

Before he could feel any joy upon discovering the ginseng, he noticed a young Daoist priest beside him, accompanied by two tiger and deer demons who had become spirits.

Upon seeing this, Qingyun frowned and stopped in her tracks.

"I've planned and calculated for so long, but I never expected that other fellow cultivators would beat me to it."

"In that case, this treasure is indeed beyond my reach."

Since other fellow cultivators had already arrived, he naturally couldn't try to snatch it by force.

This fellow Daoist is indeed quite unfamiliar. Perhaps you are a newly accepted disciple of some fellow Daoist?

To possess such Spiritual Qi at such a young age is truly extraordinary; one can expect a smooth path to immortality in the future.

With a sigh, Qingyun decided not to leave after saying goodbye, and prepared to return to her temple, so as not to cause any concern for the other party.

However, at that moment, layers of blue light suddenly appeared on the ginseng leaves below.

The surrounding flowers, grasses, and trees immediately began to grow branches and leaves.

In just a moment, it turned the surroundings into a vibrant green, as if spring were in full bloom.

At this moment, the ginseng also began to tremble, as if something was about to emerge from the soil.

Qingyun had already turned around, but upon noticing this scene, she suddenly turned back, her eyes flashing with a sharp light.

"Ginseng has become a spirit? A ginseng baby!"

In an instant, Qingyun's eyes, which had been somewhat clear, began to gradually turn red.

"Yes, this is my fortuitous opportunity, and the timing is perfect!"

"If I had set off earlier, before this ginseng became a spirit, and with other fellow Daoists sitting here, I would have turned around and left without getting involved."

"But I calculated the timing perfectly. The timing was just right; I waited until this ginseng became a spirit. This should have been my fortuitous opportunity!"

However, in just a short while, Qingyun's mind became somewhat disordered.

His lifespan was nearing its end, and no matter how good his State of Mind was, he could not simply sit idly by and watch himself pass away.

But at this moment, the ginseng spirit that appeared before him could directly solve his predicament.

Besides, he had consulted the oracle; this item was his fortuitous opportunity!

Consuming ginseng essence that is three thousand years old can extend one's lifespan by at least several hundred years!

These spirits, born from the essence of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and earth, are naturally destined to prolong their lives.

With this thought in mind, Qingyun's eyes glowed red. Finally, she stopped hiding herself, gently waved her whisk, and landed in front of the one person and two demons.

Is this ginseng really that potent when fully mature?

Fang Zelin, sitting in front, was startled as he watched the surroundings suddenly burst into bloom with flowers and grass, and the withered trees beginning to revive.

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly saw a person land in front of him.

Fang Zelin was immediately startled, and a thought flashed through his mind, "The murderers who want to steal the treasure are here?"

Fang Zelin could clearly sense the Spiritual Power fluctuations emanating from the other person, and there seemed to be a hint of Sha Qi in their eyes.

The Daoist priest, who originally had a somewhat otherworldly air about him, now seemed to have lost much of his ethereal aura.

Another immortal has arrived?

At this moment, the two demons standing to the side were also stunned.

They say immortals are hard to find, so how come there are two of them appearing at once?

"Fellow Daoist, I came here through divination. This precious treasure of heaven and earth should have a share for me. How about you give me half?"

Qingyun landed, bowed to Fang Zelin, and said loudly several times.

As he spoke, he flicked his whisk, which spread out and plunged into the ground, pulling the ginseng spirit out of the earth.

In an instant, the ginseng began to transform. The originally thick ginseng slowly turned into the shape of a child, stretching out its limbs, only to find itself bound.

Seeing Qingyun's Sha Qi appearance beside him, he was immediately trembling with fear.

Upon seeing the ginseng spirit before him, Qingyun's eyes immediately filled with drooling, his gaze fixed intently on the ginseng spirit.

Greed kept rising in his heart, wanting to possess the ginseng essence for himself and then swallow it whole.

After Qingyun Daoist finished speaking, he completed a series of actions in just a moment.

When Fang Zelin saw the ginseng spirit emerge, he was also taken aback.

Didn't the white deer say that the ginseng hadn't become a spirit? It was referring to its maturity.

How come ginseng turns into a ginseng spirit after it matures?

Seeing the Daoist priest in front of him looking like he wanted to devour the ginseng spirit, Fang Zelin fell silent.

The ginseng spirit was quite intelligent. It was already trembling with fear, and now, upon hearing that the other party wanted to divide and eat it, it became even more frightened.

He was instantly terrified, trembling, and struggled to his feet, bowing deeply to Qingyun, "Please, Daoist Master, spare my life! Please, Daoist Master, spare my life!"

After bowing to Daoist Priest Qingyun, seeing that he remained unmoved, turned and bowed to Fang Zelin.

As it struggled, the whisk cut numerous wounds on its body, and ginseng juice, resembling blood, began to flow out.

Even so, the ginseng spirit still struggled to kneel down before Fang Zelin.

As the ginseng juice flowed out, a unique fragrance immediately spread throughout the air.

Upon smelling the aroma, Fang Zelin felt an overwhelming urge to tear the ginseng apart and devour it instantly.

Even the deer and tiger demons standing nearby felt a jolt in their hearts, their mouths began to water, and the clarity in their eyes gradually disappeared.

However, the old Daoist priest in front of him glared at this.

He couldn't figure out Fang Zelin's abilities or background, and he was also struggling with his own feelings, so he was willing to share the spoils with Fang Zelin.

What are these two little demons? How dare they steal his fortuitous opportunity?

With a single glance, the old Daoist priest subdued the two lesser demons, pinning them to the side.

"Fellow Daoist, what's your decision?"

Daoist Priest Qingyun gradually grew impatient, especially after smelling the faint fragrance, which filled his body with longing.

Just one bite can prolong your life!

Fang Zelin lowered his head as he listened to Qingyun Daoist's urging. His eyes, which had been somewhat dazed, were now fixed on the ground.

Seeing the ginseng spirit kneeling pitifully before him, a sudden thought struck him.

This ginseng has become a spirit, and now it kneels before me, begging for a way to live.

If I were to actually devour this ginseng whole with this Daoist priest in front of me, what would that make me?

While consuming this ginseng would greatly enhance his cultivation and bring countless other benefits, it was not the path he desired for cultivation.

His cultivation level is low; at best, he can only cultivate slowly!
