"By the way, I almost forgot. I didn't have time to tell you just now that the task you mentioned to find the five spirit snake grasses has been completed, so please take a look. When he thought of the fire fruit that he was going to continue to look for tomorrow, Tian Jihong reacted that he hadn't explained to the master that he had found the spirit snake grass in the cave, and then took out all the harvest in the snake turtle's nest from the package, only to feel that the rich aroma of herbs suddenly spread in the house.

Li Ming, who was once again shocked by Tianjihong's luck, stared at the package in his hand and couldn't help but fall into silence again. Originally, when he was already quite highly regarded as this apprentice's talent, he deliberately raised his requirements to let him find three elixirs at the same time, and each had to find five kinds of elixirs, which was simply harsh.

How could he not know that although this Dongyun Mountain Heavenly Spirit Show was pregnant with endless opportunities, it was not easy to really find the elixir in it. Most of these heavenly and earthly treasures are in danger, and even most of them have already been pocketed by the nearby spirit beasts like the snake and turtle, if they don't risk their lives and go deep into the tiger's den, I'm afraid they won't even see the shadow of the elixir. Trying to collect 15 elixirs of different types in just one and a half days is really a bit difficult for such a little guy who is not even a monk.

"You little one, I don't know what to say about you... For the sake of a few elixirs, he almost didn't put his life into it. As a teacher, I reminded you at the beginning that no matter whether you complete the task I assigned or not, your own safety is the first priority, why don't you listen! ”

Li Ming's original intention was just to let Tianjihong enter the mountain to personally experience the atmosphere of the jungle in the cultivation world, and let him strive to gain some understanding and improvement in actual combat. As for the elixir, Li Ming didn't expect to be able to get it together at the beginning, as long as Tianjihong could bring back a few spirit grasses from the mountains by his own means, he would already be considered qualified. I didn't expect that this little guy had completed nearly half of the task in just one afternoon, and it seemed that his gains were far more than that, because at this time Tian Jihong began to rummage through other things in his pocket.

"Hehe, the apprentice also understands the truth of seeking wealth and danger, isn't this still a smooth return? After that, I will definitely follow Master's teachings and will not do such risky things again. By the way, Master, please help me identify these two things, but I don't know where they came from, so I would like to ask Master to see what kind of treasure they are. As he spoke, Tian Jihong took out the fragment of glass and the strange spirit fruit that had been remembered by the Rabbit King all the way from his pocket.

Li Ming first reached out and took the fragment, put it in the palm of his hand and looked at it carefully. "Well, let me see. This thing seems to have fallen off from a treasure, and I don't know much about its material just from the appearance, so I asked me to try it with spiritual power. I saw that Li Ming's hand was surging with spiritual power and tried to forcibly inject it into the fragment, but the fluctuation of his palm only lasted for a moment, and the former's expression changed.

"Good fellow, this thing is a little weird! The spiritual power that had just been released by the teacher must have been hindered by it, but it had not disappeared. I've never heard of any material that can fundamentally halt the operation of spiritual power without dissolving or devouring it, it's really strange! Li Ming's gaze never took off the fragment in his hand, but after several careful observations, he still couldn't understand the origin of the fragment.

"However, what is certain for the teacher is that the treasure that originally carried this fragment must have a very magical effect, just imagine a treasure that can block the flow of spiritual power between the opponent's body or weapons just by contact, it is absolutely extraordinary. Not to mention anything else, just this small fragment in your hand, if it is used properly in battle, with your own spiritual power to hit the meridians that hit the opponent's spiritual power, it will definitely have a surprise effect and make the opponent temporarily lose combat power, which is definitely a killer shot. ”

Hearing such words, Tian Jihong's mind couldn't help but recall the snake turtle that released the beast technique in mid-air but was inexplicably counterattacked, and then he easily cracked the stone gate that was maintained by spiritual power with just a light blow from this fragment. Before, I thought that this fragment had the effect of devouring spiritual power, but now, according to Master Li, I am afraid that its use is even more magical than I imagined.

You must know that although the treasures that devour or dissolve spiritual power in the martial world are also very rare, they can at least be seen often in the battles of high-level monks. But the effect of this kind of treasure on spiritual power is limited after all, whether it is devouring or decomposing, once the opponent releases more spiritual power than the limit of its absorption, the excess part of the treasure will be powerless, and may even be damaged in the attack. And if there was only a thumb-sized fragment like this in Li Ming's hand, the spiritual power that could be devoured was simply insignificant, and it was basically useless for the battle between the monks.

But if, according to Li Ming, this fragment can affect the flow of spiritual power, then it is two completely different things. There is no need to consider the upper limit to hinder the operation of the opponent's spiritual power, as long as you can hit the opponent's vital point in battle, even if it is just such a small fragment, it may completely lose the blessing of the opponent's spiritual power in a short period of time, but the maintenance time is much shorter than that of a complete treasure. But Tian Jihong certainly understands that in the moment of life and death, even a blink of an eye pause may affect the direction of the battle. Therefore, with such a magical treasure in hand, it is not surprising that Li Ming called it a killer weapon.

So Tian Jihong still put the fragment aside like a treasure, and the only regret in his heart was that the size of the fragment was too small, and it was not even enough to make a dagger. In a weekday battle, if the opponent is not stupid enough to completely expose the vital points, I am afraid that it will be difficult to use it to hurt the opponent. Then Tian Jihong handed Li Ming the spirit fruit that almost lost his life because of it, and he still didn't understand why this rabbit and rat king would stare at himself for such a small fruit, and even desperately want to take himself down.

The dark gray fruit appears to have a thin layer of scales on the skin. In fact, it was not until this moment that Tianjihong had the opportunity to calm down and carefully examine the appearance of this spirit fruit. In his own opinion, this fruit seems to grow between the stems of some kind of plant on the surface, and the protruding handle behind it seems to have a very short section of the stem of the plant adhered to it, and after repeated observation, Tian Jihong found some clues: the scale of this spirit fruit does not seem to be as inconspicuous gray-white as it seems, and it looks like it is wrapped in the outer cortex, which covers the original appearance of the fruit inside.

"Hey, I see! That's what happened..."Li Ming clamped the spirit fruit with his two fingers, and after rotating it in all directions, he finally got the result, and said to Tian Jihong with some surprise.

"The original name of this thing you kid found was [Earth Evil Fruit], and it was a very common mystic-level elixir among monks. As the saying goes, the extremes of things must be opposed, and while the earth evil fruit itself is rich in evil energy, its seeds contain endless breath of life. Once the evil qi between the outer flesh is dispersed through spiritual power, the huge spiritual energy provided by its internal seeds will not only help the monk to break through in cultivation, but also have an excellent effect on ordinary people to prolong their life. Therefore, compared with other elixirs of the same level, the Earth Devil Fruit is more loved by monks, and it is also one of the most widely circulated elixirs among Xuan-level materials. ”

"It's just that this Earth Demon Fruit you took seems to have been contaminated with other substances and mutated, and this layer of scale-like gray substance on the periphery of this fruit, according to the teacher's analysis, should be [Rat Scale Grass], this kind of vegetation is not considered a part of the elixir by division, because there is no aura in this Rat Scale Grass, which is useless for cultivation."

"However, this rat scale grass is a rare thing for rat spirit beasts, and its biggest role is to help rat spirit beasts reincarnate into a second shape. When an ordinary beast is transformed into a spirit beast, its appearance will basically change to a greater or lesser extent, and it is uniformly called a transformation in the cultivation world. Except for extremely rare cases, the transformation is a beneficial transformation for spirit beasts, and the new forms they transform into often give birth to unique organs that match their beast skills, which can greatly increase their combat power. Li Ming continued to explain patiently.

"And after this transformation, if the spirit beast wants to further complete the subsequent transformation, it must be greatly improved in cultivation, or after finding some opportunities. There is no shortage of people in the world who have completed several or even dozens of transformations, and finally achieved the peak existence of a generation of peerless fierce beasts, but if they do not have such strength or chance, it will be difficult for most ordinary spirit beasts to complete the second transformation until they reach the end of their lives. ”

"For example, the Earth Devil Fruit in your hand should have been exposed to the sap dripping from the melting of the rat scale grass on the side, which caused a strange change, and finally produced such a gray film on the surface of the fruit. And this is also the reason why the rabbit rat king outside has been refusing to let you go, although the teacher doesn't know whether this outer circle of solidified juice supports it to complete its secondary transformation, but at least it can improve the probability of its transformation. For spirit beasts, such an opportunity that can be met but cannot be sought will definitely not be easily given up. ”

After listening to such an explanation, Tian Jihong's doubts were answered, but the disappointment in his heart was also self-evident, so he had to ask stubbornly: "Then Master, what do you mean, this mutated Earth Demon Fruit is only effective for this Rabbit and Rat King, but it is not of much use to the monk?" The fruit I brought back from the mountains may be worthless in the end? ”
