Chapter 337: Xanadu (17)
Ambergris fruit, the fruit of the green scale vine, shaped like grapes, shaped like water droplets, the ripe fruit is red, the fishy smell is heavier, and it is not suitable for consumption.

As we all know, cultivators go against the sky, and the process of seeking the Great Dao is innumerable and dangerous, especially when the cultivation is advanced or greatly improved, the slightest carelessness may lead to the loss of mind and fall into a situation from which there is no return.
Therefore, at the critical moment of improving their cultivation, cultivators often choose to retreat and cultivate, or seek breakthroughs in a relatively quiet environment under the care of their elders and relatives. This practice is to minimize the impact of the external environment on the mind, and to reduce the possibility of losing control of the mind when cultivating and improving.
However, environmental factors are important, but also emotional fluctuations and mood fluctuations are also one of the main reasons for mental loss. In order to calm down one's emotions and reduce the fluctuation of mood, in addition to improving one's heart, the assistance of drugs is also extremely important.
Use drugs to stabilize your mood and mood, so as to reduce the possibility of losing your mind when you are cultivating and improving. This method is very common in the major sects of cultivation. It is also a major means of cultivating the true sects to ensure the steady improvement of the younger generations in the sect.
It's just that, in addition to the major cultivation sects, the cultivators in the small sects, or the scattered cultivators who are as many as the stars, are difficult to have medicine to assist when they improve their cultivation.
For no other reason, the elixirs on the Zhong Ling Continent that have the effect of calming the mind and qi are already rare, and after billions of years of consumption, most of these medicines have become extinct, or even extinct. Occasionally, a few plants remain, and they are all owned by famous sects with a long history.
Ambergris is one of the most common elixirs with calming effects. In many slightly larger Xiuzhen sects, there will be some collections of live plants or dried fruits.
However, there are collections and collections, but it does not mean that ambergris fruit is Chinese cabbage! For ordinary small sects, ambergris fruit is still a rare elixir, and basically belongs to the ranks of priceless and marketable. And in the slightly stronger Xiuzhen sect, ambergris is not an elixir that all sect members can be lucky enough to get.
Usually, in these Xiuzhen sects that have ambergris fruit, ambergris fruit exists as a reward or an item to motivate the disciples, and only those with good qualifications and hard enough are eligible to obtain the ambergris fruit.
All of the above are all seen by Xiao Jiu from a book called "Treatise on the Sect of Xiuzhen", which tells a lot of the history of the Zhongling Continent, the dominant sect of cultivation, and puts many sects of cultivation together, through comparison and argumentation, tells the meaning of the existence of the sect of cultivation, and its impact on the world of cultivation.
"Is this a kind of monopoly?" After listening to Xiao Jiu's story, He Wei's first reaction was disgust at the various sects swallowing elixirs alone. He Wei is very clear, although Xiao Jiu only mentioned the behavior of the major cultivation sects to swallow the elixir of condensing and calming qi, but this does not mean that the elixir they monopolize is only this category, and the cultivation resources they monopolize are only elixir!
The major cultivation sects have mastered a large number of cultivation resources, from elixirs to magic weapons, to spells and cheats. These things are the foundation for them to keep themselves strong, and they are also the basis for them to continue to be strong. Even, by monopolizing these things, the major cultivation sects can further widen the gap in strength between themselves and the small sects, or scattered cultivators.
"It's a monopoly. Xiao Jiu said, "The weak eat the strong, and the strong are respected, isn't it all like this?"
After thinking about it, He Wei found that what Xiao Jiu said was indeed the truth. Isn't this true not only of the Zhongling Continent, but also of the world in which he originally lived? Civilizations with strong military strength occupy all kinds of resources, strive to improve their own strength, and constantly devour the small civilizations around them, taking the resources in their hands as their own.
"Alas, human beings are inherently evil, and perhaps this is the nature of human beings. He sighed.
"It's not just humans, it's all living things. Xiao Jiu said softly, as if to comfort He Wei, and as if he was stating a fact, "Look at that little guy, it should have found ambergris, right? ā
Originally, while chatting with Xiao Jiu, He Wei walked towards the medicinal field that Xiao Jiu said had ambergris fruit. During this period, the little black snake has been very well-behaved around He Wei's wrist, spitting out the letter and shaking it around, leisurely and very comfortable.
However, as He Wei approached the medicinal field where the ambergris fruit grew, the leisurely little black snake suddenly straightened up, and the speed of swallowing the snake letter suddenly accelerated. Then, just when He Wu was about to see the medicine field, the little black snake suddenly jumped down from He Wu's wrist, and as soon as it landed, it slipped into the elixir bush on the side, and then saw a black line quickly passing through the green leaves, and the target was directly pointing at the medicine field in the distance.
By the time Xiao Jiu said, "The little guy is running really fast", He Wei couldn't see the shadow of the little black snake at all.
"Hahahaha, this little thing can be regarded as finding its favorite food!" He Wei laughed loudly and quickened his pace towards the medicine field.
Ambergris is a shaded vine that lives in a relatively humid environment with low temperatures.
After He Wei stepped into the ambergris fruit-growing medicine field, he immediately felt a damp and cold wind blowing towards his face, and he couldn't help but shiver. So he sincerely admired: "Old Man Xingyue is worthy of being the closest cultivator to the celestials, I didn't expect that the magic circle he set up would still be able to maintain operation after a thousand years of time!"
"Yes! Even in the billions of years of cultivation history in the Zhong Ling Continent, the people who can do this will not exceed the number of five fingers. Xiao Jiu echoed.
He Wei nodded, looked around the lush medicine fields with emotion, suddenly smiled, and said softly: "If it weren't for that, how could we be lucky enough to get so many elixirs?
Xiao Jiu also smiled when he heard this, and said, "There may be so many elixir reserves in the Medicine King Valley, but there are definitely no special conditions for cultivating elixirs in the Cave Heaven Blessed Land like this!"
