Chapter 635: 632. The first Flower White Crystal improves power "Elder Yu, what are you doing?"
Yun Liao couldn’t help but laugh.
"Just testing this brick." He’s seen all sorts of celestial materials, but none like this.
It looks like a bluestone slab, but it’s not.
If it were a bluestone slab, with just two steps, it would definitely shatter into countless pieces.
Yun Liao shook his head helplessly, "Let’s go, follow me."
"Elder Yun, you go ahead... having experienced life and death, I have a lot to reflect on, and I want to quietly digest it."
"Alright then."
Since Yu Jiang wasn’t interested in watching dramas, he wouldn’t insist.
...
Meanwhile, Wen Ping watched everyone enter the Viewing Room and then went alone to Medicine Mountain.
He wanted to check on his Immortal Tree—said to provide ten times the Divine Wood’s Wood Qi upon maturity.
Upon reaching Medicine Mountain, he found Red-eyed Giant Ape, Hei Ze, and Ling Yun gathered around a small mound of earth.
Around them were 19 identical mounds.
At the top of these mounds, two inconspicuous sprouts could be seen emerging from the soil. What drew Wen Ping’s attention was their visible speed of unfolding leaves and continuous upward growth. Such growth speed was daunting to behold.
"Sect Leader!"
Hearing footsteps, the three quickly turned around.
"Return to Yunlan Mountain." Wen Ping needed quiet to operate the Changmo Technique here.
"Yes..."
The three nodded and left promptly.
Once they had gone, Wen Ping began to operate the Changmo Technique, which had been restless since he arrived at Medicine Mountain. As soon as he started, he could feel the power within him involuntarily practice with the saplings of the Immortal Tree—entirely unlike the comfortable Wood Qi provided by the Jianmu, this Wood Qi entered his body.
This Wood Qi carried an aura of immortality.
Wen Ping seemingly saw a sea, an island, and the eternally immortal tree on the island!
That sea, calm and vast.
That island, lonely and still.
That tree, towering and eternal.
"It certainly lives up to the name ’Immortal Sect’." Feeling this aura of immortality, Wen Ping thought of the words "Immortal Sect".
The immortal tree was planted here.
This truly gave the Immortal Sect something immortal in essence.
Just then, a voice suddenly came to his ear.
"Host, consider this a friendly reminder: there’s only three days left. You might want to hasten the opening of your meridians to enter this world’s so-called Half-Step Mountain Suppression Realm, as you’re going to a place of dragons and tigers. Perhaps, once you’ve opened the meridians to the Gathering Spirit Meridian Gate, you’ll be much safer in completing your mission."
"It’s the first time you’ve reminded me to enhance my power!"
"Considering the influence of the Hundred Sects Alliance on this journey, the system chose to remind you kindly to avoid changing a host if possible."
"That’s true, the first mission of this journey is heading to the Thousand Mechanism Lake. Thousand Mechanism Lake is the real headquarters of the Hundred Sects Alliance. Taking disciples there to challenge them is indeed dangerous... But, it’s easy for you to say. The Jianmu Forest can’t possibly let me open my meridians in three days. As for these twenty Immortal Trees, they just sprouted, and it’s even less possible."
"The host seems to have forgotten the original use of White Crystal in this world."
"No... I’m not that extravagant."
In this world, White Crystal serves as both currency and essential for cultivation.
Why would noble families seize White Crystal Ore?
It’s all for acquiring cultivation resources—White Crystal.
If the system hadn’t forbidden owning vassals, including White Crystal Ore, he would have set his eyes on occupying East Lake’s White Crystal Ore long ago.
Though the yield isn’t high, he believes it could eventually produce a thousand or two thousand White Crystals.
Hearing Wen Ping’s words, the system responded blandly, "The decision lies with you, but in the event of an accident, I can simply find another host."
"I..."
Wen Ping was speechless.
The thought of cultivating using White Crystals pained him!
This was hard-earned money!
Others brought it to him bit by bit!
But the system’s first reminder to increase his power unnerved him.
Perhaps Thousand Mechanism Lake is more dangerous than he imagined.
Forget it!
