Chapter 339: Blessings and Misfortunes
"Lingluo grass, Tianxuanhua, Yingyang grass"
Looking at the spiritual materials that were shouted out and couldn't be called out in the medicine field, everyone had an unconcealable excitement on their faces. There are too many, these spirit grasses are not only of extremely high grade, but also extremely long in vintage, and many of them have reached that limit, that is to say, if you don't remove these herbs again, maybe after a few years, these precious spirit grasses will wither.
People have a life cycle, and so do monsters, so do plants and trees. Some spirit grasses are limited by their own grades, and when they grow to a certain extent, they will basically wither and die. Unless you are able to break through your own limitations, just like a cultivator breaks through the realm, the herb can continue to grow.
And looking at the residue left after some of the herbs on the medicine field withered, we know that I don't know how many herbs have been wasted here for no reason. But now these spirit grasses belong to them. At a glance, they didn't see anything below the fifth order, basically all of them were fifth-order top-grade spiritual materials, if these herbs were carefully matched to refine the pills, even for the sixth-order Xingyun powerhouses, not to mention the fifth-order vein-opening realm like Jin Liu and others, these herbs were definitely great supplements.
Even now, if someone wants to be an alchemist on a whim, with the number of herbs here, as long as the qualifications are not dull and excessive, they can achieve something. Of course, whether or not you can become an alchemy master in the end depends on your talent. However, this also shows from another aspect how rich the herbs here are.
"Be careful, everyone, don't be careless. ”
Shen Cong calmed down first, although the wealth here is exaggerated, but he can't get carried away, otherwise something will suddenly appear, and it will be easy to be damaged. Jin Liu and the others all nodded, they were all genius disciples, and they quickly withdrew from this inexplicable excitement, although they were still happy in their hearts, but they finally had a sense of proportion.
The spirit grass is collected one by one, and according to the correct storage method of the spirit grass, it is necessary to use a high-quality jade box, which can ensure that the medicinal properties of the spirit grass will not disappear and can be preserved for a long time. However, there are too many spirit grasses here, and if such a plant comes, I'm afraid that no matter how many jade boxes there are, it won't work.
Therefore, everyone can only put these into the Qiankun bag first, and in a short time, the medicinal properties of the spirit herbs will not be lost, but after they get outside, they must be arranged little by little, otherwise these herbs will not be able to withstand the toss. But now is not the time to think about it, let's take away all these spirit grasses first.
All of them are age-old spirit grasses, and even many of them have reached the limit state that they can grow, so it is convenient to collect. The medicinal fragrance permeates the surroundings, and if you take a casual breath, you can feel the relaxation of your body and mind, and even your true qi is constantly fluctuating.
Of course, this is an illusion, at their level, how can there be such a change because of inhaling a sip of medicinal incense, unless it is the best elixir, there is a trace of possibility. One by one, the herbs turned into streamers and submerged into the Qiankun bag, and from time to time there would be sixth-order spirit grass, and there were both low-grade and high-grade ones.
"Collecting like this, it won't destroy this place, right?" Jin Liu asked in a low voice, this place is very beneficial to the growth of spirit grass, if they collect it like this, it would be too much of a pity to cut it off.
"Don't worry, there are seeds left in the tea residues of those herbs, and after a year, this place will be regrown with spirit grass, but this is definitely not the case in terms of age. Gu Shun said with a smile.
"Hey, it seems that the spirit grass here has only been growing for a long time. Lin Mo said lightly suddenly, and several people followed Lin Mo's gaze, and sure enough, they found that some spirit grasses looked a little immature, which was very different from what they had collected on the periphery before.
"Well, it's not that old. Gu Shun stepped forward and took a closer look, compared to the periphery, the age of the spirit grass here is much lower, it seems that it has only grown for more than ten years, but it can reach the limit of use, compared with the previous herbs that have grown to the limit, it is much worse. And underneath these herbs, there are not so many remnants of the spirit grass after it has withered.
Shen Cong looked up and looked around, they had already entered one-third of the medicinal field at this moment, and now when they looked carefully, they found that from here, the age of the spirit grass began to gradually decrease, although the grade of each plant did not decrease, there were still many sixth-order and fifth-order, but there was no doubt that the medicinal properties would decrease a lot. Even some spirit grasses that should have the potential of the sixth order, because of the lack of years, only grow to the stage of the fifth order, and it will take a long time before they can become the level of the sixth order.
This situation is a little strange, Shen Cong remembered the maze he walked through before, there is no doubt that this place is artificially planted, but no one should have come for a long time. When I looked at the periphery of the medicine field before, I thought that no one had come for at least a hundred years, but when I saw the inside, it didn't seem to be that long, and at most no one picked it for more than ten years.
And the deeper it goes, the more obvious this situation becomes, it seems that someone was in a hurry to take away some of it, and there was no time to take care of the periphery. By the second half of the field, almost none of those herbs had grown. Of course, Shen Cong and a few people can also forcibly take it away, but it doesn't make much sense.
Therefore, everyone did not blindly harvest all as before, but tried to choose enough years, anyway, they had collected enough before, but now they don't need to go too far. Everything, whether it is useful or not, this kind of eating is too ugly, and a few people don't need to reach such an extent.
"There's an altar up ahead!"
Gu Shun said loudly, and Shen Cong had already seen it. The altar was not obvious, it was hidden in the spirit grass before, and it was only as everyone approached that they slowly took a clear look. The altar was very small, even a little shabby, but there was an inexplicable aura rippling out, and Shen Cong felt this aura just now, and only then did he realize it.
The herbs around the altar were almost worthless to pick, and everyone came to the altar together. At first, he was a little cautious, but when he reached the edge of the altar, he didn't find any danger, but seemed to feel the breath of the living, and the altar was slightly glowing, and a circle of spiritual power was absorbed by the altar, and the light of the altar became more and more vigorous.
"Outsiders!"
A grand voice sounded, and the entire space shook slightly. Shen Cong's brows moved, just with the will contained in the voice just now, this person's strength must have reached the level of the Seventh Order Mountain Moving Realm, an absolute powerhouse. Because only such a strong person can affect several people with a single voice.
"Enter my Xiao family, these spirit grasses can be taken at will, and there are even mystical martial arts, seventh-order spirit weapons for you to use!" The voice carried an impact that had gone through vicissitudes, and the meaning in the language was even more overwhelming. Martial arts, seventh-order spiritual weapons!And as the words fell, several phantoms appeared above the altar.
Among them is a figure constantly moving his martial body, it can be seen that he is practicing a set of peerless martial arts, and the cultivators present are at least fifth-order open pulses, and there are even sixth-order powerhouses in the late stage of Xingyun like Gu Shun, so they can naturally see the extraordinaryness of this martial arts at a glance, and even the more they look at it, the more they have the illusion that people are deeply immersed in it.
But the figure stopped halfway through the exercise, and at the same time changed the moves, and actually began to use other martial arts. is still mysterious, still suspenseful, and such a martial arts routine, the figure has played three sets, that is to say, this Xiao family has three sets of mystical martial arts, and they are all complete.
And next to the figure, there are several weapons suspended, and there are pills. Just by looking at a few weapons, you can feel the extraordinary, compared to the sixth-order spirit weapons, these weapons are more agile, as if they can go straight to the green underworld by themselves. And those few pills that kept spinning and chasing were even more extraordinary. Even if you just look at the video, you can smell the medicine.
"Wouldn't this Xiao family be the huge family that was destroyed at the beginning?" Jin Liu said suddenly, the piece of jade that Shen Cong brought back at the beginning, Jin Liu had studied it carefully, and naturally remembered the name of that family. And now, combined with the surrounding scene and the words from the altar just now, it is easy to deduce.
"It's indeed that Xiao family, no wonder they could be on an equal footing with those big factions back then, they had three sets of arcane martial arts, and even seventh-order spiritual weapons, how could ordinary sects be their opponents!" Shen Cong nodded. But think about it, occupying this secret realm for so many years, such a strong aura of heaven and earth, it is unimaginable for cultivators to cultivate benefits. There are so many spiritual materials that can be obtained, and it is difficult for this family not to develop.
But blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, relying on this secret realm to develop, and in the end they were destroyed because of this secret realm, which has to be said to be an irony. What happened back then is impossible to investigate, and with the destruction of the Xiao family, everything has disappeared cleanly.
Shen Cong didn't expect that the place he found was actually the Xiao family's stronghold in the secret realm back then. Being able to arrange a formation like that on the periphery, you can imagine the huge size of the Xiao family back then, and now there are martial arts, weapons, and pills that attract them, how powerful they should have been when they were strong.
"This Xiao family has been ruined for many years, and he is still thinking about recruiting people. Gu Shun said in a low voice.
"It's because of the collapse that I want to make a comeback, let me see first, what kind of entry method is this way to enter the Xiao family. Shen Cong said a word, stepped forward, and stretched out his palm to the light shield of the altar.
"No, be careful, it's dangerous. Gu Shun hurriedly stopped, the powerhouse who had the seventh-order mountain-moving realm back then, he understood the horror when he thought about it, such a move was too risky.
"It's okay, I know it. Shen Cong smiled, and his palm touched the shield of the altar. A strange fluctuation swept out, and the surrounding spirit grass was pressed low, and Shen Cong's body shone with a faint light, almost merging with the entire altar.
Time passed little by little, Shen Cong's body did not move, and the light of the shield did not change. Gu Shun and the others stood around, guarding against possible dangers. The next moment, Shen Cong opened his eyes and took his hand away from the shield.
"How?" Huang Yang said urgently, if the conditions for entering the Xiao family are not strict, even if he joins, it is nothing. The Mystery Martial Arts and the Seventh-Order Spiritual Weapons are all really good things.
"The situation is not optimistic, if you want to join the Xiao family, you must integrate into the bloodline of the Xiao family, and at the same time, you also need to swear allegiance to the Xiao family for the rest of your life. A smile appeared from the corner of Shen Cong's mouth, but it was full of mockery, this Xiao family is really a good idea.
"Integrate into the Xiao family's bloodline?" Several people were stunned, and then their faces became ugly. Integrate into the bloodline, this bloodline must have done tricks, which is equivalent to being subject to the Xiao family in disguise, and it is impossible to leave in the future. As for the other oath, it was ignored.
