#219 - Holy shit! So many?
#219 - Holy shit! So many?
"Yunzi, have you found all the spiritual plants you needed?" Xu Chengxian asked.
"I have." Ling Yunzi smiled and said, "Just now, Lingxiao and I found several dragon's beard roots and half a dragon's blood ginseng in the lair of the demon vine."
Although only half of the dragon's blood ginseng remained, it was barely enough to be used in medicine.
Moreover, this spiritual plant was needed the least in the pill formula.
Half a root was enough.
"What about the dragon bone vine and the nine-dragon clubmoss?" Xu Chengxian continued to ask.
"The dragon bone vine and the nine-dragon clubmoss have not yet been found." Ling Yunzi said, "So we still need to stay here for two more days."
"Is two days enough?" Xu Chengxian wondered.
Could the spiritual plants that haven't been found be found within two days?
Moreover, the deadline of two days was given so precisely.
Logically speaking, he should have given a vague number, such as having to leave even if they couldn't find it within two days.
So he thought this deadline was deliberately said for Da Hei to hear.
Therefore, he changed to using divine sense to transmit his inquiry.
Unexpectedly, Lingxiao replied to him, "It is indeed two days, any later, and we won't be able to leave."
They were only one step ahead of those demon clans in the Emperor's Tomb.
It had already taken them two months to reach the Azure Dragon Secret Realm, refine the sea-crossing ship, and rush to the True Dragon Main Hall.
This was already extremely fast.
"The other great demons probably don't even have magical artifacts to cross the sea, and even if they do, the sea beasts they encounter will hinder their journey."
Ling Yunzi's art of refining weapons was exquisite. The Crimson Blood Array Flag with the gluttonous fierce soul residing on the road saved a lot of trouble.
Jiao Wang asked General Si to bring this array flag, probably to drive away sea beasts and find more dragon eggs.
"This Lord of the Northern Demon Territory should also know that the barrier of the Azure Dragon Secret Realm is about to shatter." Lingxiao said, "Therefore, he is eager to get all the dragon eggs in his hands."
"General Si received the king's order, everyone else can retreat, but he cannot."
Overcoming all difficulties, the other party will definitely rush here.
Losing the array flag, with the ability of a demon general, he should be arriving soon, calculating the time.
Within the Emperor's Tomb, I'm afraid the dragon eggs that remain are of poor quality.
The best dragon egg that General Si can get is similar to the one the three of them used to make the teleportation talisman.
It might even be worse.
"If the quality was better, we would have encountered it on the way here." Lingxiao joked.
"Then what if we still can't find the spiritual plants we need in two days?" Xu Chengxian asked again.
"If we can't find them within two days, then we'll use that demon vine as medicine." Ling Yunzi interjected. "This demon vine has strangled countless spiritual plants with its roots, and each of its roots has unexpectedly nurtured different medicinal properties."
If it is kept for the future, when his cultivation improves and he deduces a pill formula with this as the main ingredient, using the whole plant as medicine, he might be able to refine extraordinary elixirs.
If the required spiritual plants are found within two days, then this demon vine can be spared.
"Then why not stay for two more days?" Xu Chengxian said.
"No matter how rare something is, it must be used for my benefit." Ling Yunzi smiled and said, "It would be unwise to risk facing a demon general for a demon vine."
"Old ghost, Ling Yunzi and I plan to break through our cultivation to the demon general level in the secret realm, and even undergo tribulation here." Lingxiao said at this time, "Therefore, before that, we will try to avoid fighting with demon generals."
Any battle carries the risk of injury.
Any injury will require recuperation and recovery.
This will delay their plan.
"So urgent?" Xu Chengxian was surprised. "Aren't you two only at the late stage of the Great Demon realm?"
After the late stage of the Great Demon realm is the peak stage.
Shouldn't you reach the peak stage before considering tribulation?
"Improving cultivation should be done sooner rather than later." Lingxiao replied.
She seemed to be talking to Xu Chengxian, but also seemed to be talking to herself: "What I want has never been just returning to the battle power of my previous life!"
Since there is a chance to be reborn once, naturally, I must be even better than before!
Even stronger than Empress Lingxiao is this life's Empress Lingxiao!
"So inspiring! What ambition!"
Xu Chengxian was very supportive, conjuring up two palms and clapping twice for Lingxiao, then looking at Ling Yunzi.
"Yunzi, what about you?"
"Before I reincarnated and rebuilt, I was only a Dao Lord cultivator. If I return and am still a Dao Lord, wouldn't I have reincarnated in vain?" Ling Yunzi raised an eyebrow, cooperating perfectly.
"Haha! Good! Very good!" Xu Chengxian laughed loudly. "Your big brother, I, will also work hard!"
"Hmph! You're transmitting sound behind my back again! If you're going to transmit sound, transmit sound to everyone, why act strangely and clap your hands!" Da Hei was startled and immediately grumbled unhappily.
The three of them were talking using divine sense transmission, so it couldn't hear them.
That's why the flower snake's sudden clapping and laughter startled it.
However, its dissatisfaction was only expressed with a hmph, and it didn't say anything else.
It was still thinking about finding more dragon eggs to give to Xu Chengxian in exchange for blood energy.
It couldn't afford to offend the snake.
"Oh, right, there's also this." Xu Chengxian didn't pay attention to it, but opened his snake mouth and spat out a ball of blood energy.
He handed the several spiritual plants wrapped inside to Ling Yunzi.
"I have two resurrection grasses and three other spiritual herbs here. Although I don't recognize them, I feel like they should be okay."
These spiritual plants were dug from the roots of the demon vine.
Speaking of which, this matter was also a mess.
The fact that the demon vine was alarmed was indeed due to his own greed.
He couldn't completely blame it on Da Hei.
Moreover, it worked very hard when fighting the demon vine, and then took the initiative to mention that there were real dragon eggs in the fake dragon eggs, half for the blood energy and half to settle the score.
Xu Chengxian saw through it, but didn't expose it.
This was also the reason.
So many dragon eggs were enough to quell all his anger.
Therefore, he decided to let Da Hei off the hook.
However, this also reminded Xu Chengxian that the telepathy between Da Hei and him also had limitations.
Just like before, he could sense Da Hei's joy, and thought it was because it had found spiritual plants and was happy that it could exchange them for blood energy.
Therefore, he knew there would be a surprise.
But he didn't expect to miscalculate the size of the surprise!
......
"I also have to work hard." Xu Chengxian thought to himself.
Once Ling Yunzi collected all the spiritual plants, he would start refining pills.
The spiritual materials had been prepared before coming here.
Lingxiao could also take the three kinds of pills to improve her cultivation.
Once the pills were refined, I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before the two of them broke through.
As the big brother, he couldn't be left behind!
At this time.
Inside his abdomen, the dragon eggs.
The system had already extracted the vitality and true dragon aura from them.
He also stirred up his blood energy to wrap each dragon egg.
However, using the divine power of devouring and refining to refine them all would require a large amount of blood energy.
In this state, encountering an unexpected attack would definitely affect his performance.
To be on the safe side, he chose to start refining after reuniting with Lingxiao and Ling Yunzi at this time.
He closed his eyes and lay down, mobilizing his blood energy.
In a few breaths, the blood energy gradually surged.
......
Two days later.
Under Da Hei's guidance, Xu Chengxian found all the dragon eggs he could find.
The final count almost shocked his jaw.
"Holy crap! How can there be so many?"
