Chapter 448: Profound Spirit Immortal Herb
In Ling Xiao’s body, the energy of Hundred Year Nine Dragons Essence Temper Pill continuously remolded the martial veins, and also continuously integrated into the martial veins.
Outside the body, a lot of spiritual qi attracted by the Nine Dragons Essence Temper Pill continuously entered his body, producing a lot of changes, moreover, tempered the body while integrating into his true essence.
Ling Xiao’s cultivation base was increasing at a very terrifying speed!
Late Rank Four Transcendent Realm!
Peak Rank Four Transcendent Realm!
An hour later, Ling Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, and two golden lights were shot out from his dark eyes.
He then slowly spat out a mouthful of turbid qi, and looked excitedly at Venerable Yuan, who was still lying at one side lazily.
“Initial Rank Five Transcendent Realm! I actually made a breakthrough!”
Ling Xiao himself was a little surprised that he made a breakthrough so easily this time.
This should be the result of the current cultivation method.
The energy of the Nine Dragons Essence Temper Pill not only made cultivation breakthrough, but it also made him comprehend the fourth type of celestial phenomena power of <Twelve Golden Lotuses Art>——lightning, successfully breaking through to the fourth layer.
Wind, Thunder, Rain and Lightning!
With these four types of power of celestial phenomena, he could inject new vitality in <Snow Lotus Sword Art> and <Nine Meridian Qi Sword>. Moreover, they would be able to use more powerful attacks.
Seeing this, Venerable Yuan was a bit relieved and was also pleasantly surprised.
He wasn’t together with Ling Xiao often before, therefore, he didn’t fully understand Ling Xiao. But now, he completely understood that Ling Xiao’s aptitude was so good that it would make other people envious.
He truly had accepted an excellent disciple.
……
After the breakthrough to Initial Rank Five Transcendent Realm, Ling Xiao was not in a hurry to do anything else. He just began to consolidate his current cultivation.
During this period of time, he didn’t create sword soul clones to cultivate, so as to not distract himself.
After all, this time, he had made a big breakthrough. He had to concentrate on understanding his powers after the breakthrough so that he could have a better grasp of it and be able to use it properly!
Five days later, Ling Xiao opened his eyes.
His cultivation base had completely consolidated in Initial Rank Five Transcendent Realm now.
Even if he was seriously injured, as long as he didn’t die, his cultivation base wouldn’t drop.
Naturally, the more important matter was, he had almost completely grasped the power of this stage.
……
In the danger-ridden Crouching Dragon Mountain Range, Ling Xiao was walking slowly. If there was someone with a high cultivation base, then he should be able to vaguely see that there was a ‘True Essence Sphere’ composed of a lot of true essence around Ling Xiao with a radius of several dozen meters.
Ling Xiao didn’t even need to look. As long as the True Essence Sphere touched things, he would immediately receive information in his mind, which was faster than seeing with his eyes.
This time, he had come out mainly to find some materials for refining ‘top-grade True Essence Pills’.
In order to consolidate his cultivation base, he had already used all remaining top-grade True Essence Pills in the past few days.
Although the top-grade True Essence Pill was not very helpful for his cultivation, it was the most suitable pill for restoring true essence.
With Ling Xiao’s habit, he felt uncomfortable going out without carrying at least a thousand of them.
No matter how much true essence a martial artist had, it would eventually be exhausted. Even if Ling Xiao was able to absorb the opponent’s true essence through the ability of the Landscape Martial Soul, the problem was, most of the time now, he was not fighting, rather cultivating. At that time, who would he absorb the true essence from?
He could only restore it using True Essence Pills.
Alchemy was basically not a problem for Ling Xiao. With the Landscape Martial Soul, he could refine any kind of pill.
Even Venerable Yuan didn’t know this point.
It was just that the more advanced the pill was, the harder it was to find the recipe.
Even if Ling Xiao knew how to refine, without the pill recipe and materials, it would be useless.
Therefore, the pills he could refine now were all the ones he had seen or used.
As long as he used the pill, the Landscape Martial Soul would be able to quickly analyze its ingredients, then deduce the pill recipe.
Ling Xiao didn’t dare to tell his Master about this because it was too unnatural. Moreover, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble.
To refine top-grade True Essence Pills, one herb was critical and irreplaceable, but it was very difficult to find.
It was very difficult to find it in the Secular World, but it could be found in the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range.
As for the other auxiliary materials, although they were not cheap, they could be purchased.
The name of this critical herb was ‘Profound Spirit Herb’.
A hundred-year-old Profound Spirit Herb was needed to refine top-grade True Essence Pills.
Less than a hundred-year-old Profound Spirit Herb could be found in the Secular World, but they could just refine mid-grade or low-grade True Essence Pills.
Many Profound Spirit Herb could be found in the Profound Realm, but only a few were above a hundred years old. Moreover, they generally grew deep in the mountain forest, and usually, they were guarded by evil beasts, fierce beasts, or even demon beasts.
That was because these beasts also knew that swallowing a Profound Spirit Herb could increase their true essence.
But regardless of how hard it was to get it, Ling Xiao had to get it. It was for himself, not for others.
Relying on the Landscape Martial Soul, Ling Xiao had already determined the places where the chance of the Profound Spirit Herb growing was high. However, if he wanted to find the Profound Spirit Herb that was over a hundred years old, then he had to rely on ‘Earth Observing Heaven Listening’ to search at close range.
As for the reason why he was walking so slowly, it was because the depths of the Crouching Dragon Mountain range were full of dangers. Moreover, he also didn’t want to suffer a surprise attack from some fierce beasts midway and get himself killed just because his brain was filled with Profound Spirit Herb.
As long as he sensed the existence of the fierce beast, whether it was strong or weak, he would try to avoid it as much as possible. After all, the goal of coming out this time was not to fight, but to find the materials.
With his outstanding observation skill, coupled with the ability of ‘Earth Observing Heaven Listening’, he basically didn’t need to fight along the way. He skillfully avoided all fierce beasts.
Finally, he sighed in relief.
Because he had reached the destination.
This was a basin, and there were all kinds of exotic flowers and herbs growing in the basin, but most of them were Profound Spirit Herbs.
It was just that most of the Profound Spirit Herbs were below one hundred years old. So, he simply put them into his Landscape World.
The disciples of the Divine Sword Sect also needed True Essence pills. Now, it was already his sect, and perhaps, it might become his important combat power in the future. Therefore, he had to cultivate them well.
The things the other small sects didn’t have, he must get them for his sect.
Suddenly, his footsteps stopped. Among the countless green Profound Spirit Herbs, there was a very special one.
Although it was not much different from other Profound Spirit Herbs in terms of appearance, was just a bit brighter and bigger, the martial artists could notice that the spiritual qi contained in this special Profound Spirit Herb far exceeded that of other Profound Spirit Herbs that were less that a hundred years old. There were even some lines on the leaves, which seemed to show signs of producing divine runes.
Generally, the divine runes slowly form in the bodies of animals and plants over time, which was the result of the power of law.
