Chapter 412: Transplanting Fire Spirit Fruit
The Fire Spirit Fruit Tree on the Xiayuan Ridge has grown for more than two thousand years, and when the Xuanhuo Lion was a fourth-order demon beast, he had devoured the Fire Spirit Fruit to purify his bloodline. After he advanced to the fifth order, although the Fire Spirit Fruit was no longer of great use to it, it still occupied this fruit tree. Whenever the fruit was ripe, it would drive away the demon beasts entrenched in Xia Yuanling and enjoy the delicious taste of the fire spirit fruit alone.
The reason why it came alone to pursue the floating cloud boat this time was also because of this factor. If you take a large number of demon beasts under your command, even if Qing Chan uses two fifth-order spirit runes, it will be difficult to escape the siege of the demon beast army, and once the Ziyang Heavenly Fire is drawn, a great war between humans and demon beasts will definitely break out.
When the Xuanhuo Lion came to Xiayuanling to enjoy the delicious food, it happened to meet Zhang Zhixuan and the three of them transplanting fruit trees, so it chased after it and stopped the floating cloud boat outside Xiayuanling.
Unexpectedly, after a fierce battle, it actually created a situation of equal strength. The Xuanhuo Lion, a demon beast in the early stage of the fifth order, had no way to take two Purple Mansion monks.
Seeing that the floating cloud boat was gone, the Xuanhuo Lion did not dare to continue to chase, and was hit by two fifth-order spirit runes in a row, and the Xuanhuo Lion had already suffered a lot of trauma. In addition, the divine consciousness attached to the demon pill was scattered, which made it already panic.
The intelligence of demon beasts is not comparable to that of humans, especially when weighing the pros and cons. Even if the Xuanhuo Lion was already a fifth-order, but after being severely injured by Zhang Zhixuan and the others, he was like a pug, and after getting rid of the entanglement of the Eight Golden Light Fu, he didn't dare to stay for a moment, and returned to the Lingshan where he lived.
At the same time, Zhang Zhixuan drove the floating cloud boat and fled, and soon escaped into the range of the Tianchan Cave, which can be regarded as a sigh of relief.
Ever since the late fifth-order Heaven Devouring Toad was killed by Liu Guyan, all intelligent demon beasts now didn't dare to approach the Heavenly Toad Cave at all. This generation has almost become a buffer realm between high-level demon beasts and human monks, as long as Zhang Zhixuan and the three of them escape back to the vicinity of the Tianchan Cave, even if the Xuanhuo Lion is intact, they will not dare to chase after it rashly.
Because Liu Guyan was already in retreat and practicing the Ziyang Heavenly Fire Technique, Zhang Zhixuan didn't bother her and asked Qingchan to meet her.
With Wang Guangqian, who was attacked by fire and poison, Zhang Zhixuan galloped along the way and returned to Montenegro in a panic.
Sacrificing two fifth-order spirit runes in a row, Qing Chan's mana has been consumed ninety percent, relying on Zhang Zhixuan alone, even if there is no fifth-order demon beast, he can't protect the two injured in the Southern Wilderness, but he clearly knows that there is a late-fourth-order seven-colored centipede nearby. Once this centipede appears, I am afraid that it will have to face a brutal battle.
Fortunately, after meeting the Xuanhuo Lion, the luck of the three of them was a little better, and on the way back to Black Mountain, although they met a few demon beasts, the level of the demon beasts was only two or three orders. Zhang Zhixuan did not kill the low-level demon beasts without any extraneous branches, and returned to Montenegro safe and sound.
Wang Guangqian, the third-order spirit planter who followed them, although he saved his life, it was a pity that he was attacked by the fire poison of the Xuanhuo Lion, and he had to cultivate for at least ten years. The next work of transplanting the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree was already a bit overwhelming for him.
After Zhang Zhixuan returned to Montenegro, he immediately sent him back to the Qingyang Mountain Elixir Garden, this time because he encountered an accident, which caused him to delay the way, Zhang Zhixuan was also a little reluctant to go, and compensated him for five thousand good deeds. Anyway, Wang Guangqian's age cultivation is no longer possible to open up the Purple Mansion, and these five thousand good deeds can already be exchanged for half a Zhuji Dan for his descendants.
After sending Wang Guangqian back to the sect, Zhang Zhixuan invited a third-order spirit planter, Li Xiang, to return to Montenegro with him.
After returning to Montenegro, Li Xiang inspected the landform of Montenegro, and then spoke: "The most abundant place on the mountain for fire spirit qi is next to the fire refining room, if you want the fire spirit fruit tree to grow better, it is best to transplant it to the fire eye." ”
Zhang Zhixuan hesitated slightly, and immediately asked, "Will it affect the quality of the fire eye?" These few fire eyes have to refine a large number of magic weapons and elixirs every year, and once the quality of the fire eyes is affected, it will be worth the loss. ”
The Fire Spirit Fruit Tree can only bear fruit once in a hundred and twenty years, and according to the six results this time, the average annual result is only one hundred and fifty spirit stones, which is far less than the income of a few fire eyes in Black Mountain.
However, the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree can grow for thousands of years, and it will bear more and more Fire Spirit Fruit in the future, and in the long run, it is still worth more than a few fire holes. Moreover, the Fire Spirit Fruit, a natural treasure, can also be regarded as a strategic resource, and for the Fire Spirit Root Cultivators in the Purple Mansion Period, it can also save ten years of penance time.
This kind of fourth-order heaven and earth treasure, even if you have enough spirit stones in your hand, it is difficult to exchange for a suitable spirit object, for a family and sect, in the long run, it is still far more valuable than two fifth-order spirit runes.
Li Xiang nodded and said: "Uncle Shi thinks well, it will still affect a little bit, except for the fire refining room, the most suitable place is the top of Black Mountain." However, the fire spirit fruit tree was transplanted in the cave on the top of the mountain, and only a large amount of fire attribute aura will be gathered near the cave mansion in the future, this environment is only suitable for the cultivation of fire spirit root monks, and it is very unfavorable to the monks of other attribute spirit roots. ”
After listening to Li Xiang's words, Zhang Zhixuan secretly thought in his heart: "The family already has the Lingjing Cave Mansion, and the focus of the family business in the future will definitely return to Lingjing Mountain, the quality of the Lingjing Cave Mansion has reached the fifth-order upper grade, as long as Qingchan forms a golden pill, this cave mansion can also be slowly exposed to outsiders." It is still good to transform the cave on the top of the mountain of Montenegro into a treasure land suitable for the cultivation of fire attribute spiritual roots, there are not many places on the mountain suitable for opening up the fire eye, once the quality of the fire eye on the mountain is affected, the monks who settle on the mountain will have a little more trouble refining pills and refining weapons, which is still not conducive to the long-term development of Montenegro. ”
He weighed the pros and cons, and finally decided to transplant the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree next to the Cave Mansion on the top of the mountain.
With the help of Zhang Zhixuan and Han Yan, Li Xiang skillfully transplanted this spiritual tree to life, and he also carefully took care of the fire spirit fruit tree for three months, and only when everything was settled, did he return to Qingyang Mountain in Zhang Zhixuan's gratitude.
This time he invited someone out, and Zhang Zhixuan took out Cheng Yi of three hundred spirit stones to thank him.
Li Xiang, a third-order spirit planter, counting the subsidies in the elixir garden, basically has an income of about six hundred spirit stones a year, and among the disciples of the sect's foundation building period, he can be regarded as a group of people with relatively high incomes.
Although the profession of Lingzhifu is relatively stable, the foreign income is relatively small, and it only took three months to get half a year's income, and Li Xiang was also more satisfied, and happily returned to the elixir garden.
After the successful transplantation of the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree, it really withered for a long time as Wang Guangqian expected, and the six Fire Spirit Fruits were only barely half saved, and the three fruits could only rot day by day because the spirit wood injured the foundation.
After waiting a little more than three years, the three Fire Spirit Fruits were considered ripe, two or three years later than the normal time.
