Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 400 Spiritual Fruit and Spiritual Liquid

 Looking for the wood in the cave.

 A large settlement somewhere.

 “Welcome the envoy.”

At the outskirts of the settlement, more than a dozen spirit humans with dark brown skin were bowing respectfully to a man with green skin.

those of their spirit race who live underground are all lower-class spirit beings, and their skin color is dark all year round. Only the upper-class spirit people who live above the tree crowns have green skin color, and they are clearly distinguishable from each other and can be easily distinguished.

Generally speaking, superior spirits live above the tree canopy and rarely go underground. The only time they come underground is to collect offerings from various underground tribes, and they usually only come once a year.

 “How was the harvest this year?”

The superior spiritual man in charge of the greenery stood in the field with his hands folded. Facing the bows and salutes of many inferior spiritual men, there was naturally a hint of arrogance in his eyes.

The aura around him is also far stronger than these low-level spirits. He exudes a little pressure all the time. The inner breath he exhales interacts with the heaven and earth. If measured by Daxuan's martial arts realm, he is a five-organ realm. The presence.

It is precisely because of this that every hundred years, when demons invade, various areas on the canopy will be on heightened alert. Some settlements near the edges will even be temporarily evacuated and relocated to gather in larger nodes, while the underground will not change.

At best, like him, he would inform them in advance and not spend a lot of effort to specifically relocate and protect these spiritual settlements living on the periphery.

“Returning to the envoy, this year’s harvest is slightly worse than in previous years. Only twenty earth spirit fruits were harvested.”

He cast his gaze at the many low-level spirits in front of him, and was about to say something harsh, but suddenly thought of something, shook his head slightly in his heart, and then said slowly: "Since the harvest is poor, let's leave it like this this year. I hope you can pass the test." "

Then a female spiritual person from the settlement came over respectfully holding a wooden tray. On the wooden tray, there were piles of spiritual fruits that were only the size of a baby's fist, glowing with a little green luster.

 Said.

 This is one of the criteria for becoming a superior spiritual person.

The spiritual envoy's eyes became calmer. After briefly glancing at the crowd, he walked away without saying much nonsense.

“But you must be careful next time. It’s almost time for the evil spirits from outside the world to come. If you encounter evil spirits, you must try your best to convey the news as quickly as possible!”

The envoy of the spirit race frowned slightly and looked at the earth spirit fruits piled on the wooden plate, seeming slightly dissatisfied.

Earth Spirit Fruits can only be cultivated underground with the help of Xunmu's root system. The cultivation process is extremely complicated and complicated. Even for large settlements, they can only harvest twenty or thirty pieces at most every year, and basically have to pay tribute in full.

 After collecting all the earth spirit fruits.

In fact, he doesn't care too much about the life and death of the lower-class spirit people. Even if some of this kind of settlement is massacred by those extraterrestrial evil spirits, it is not a bad thing for the spirit people. It can logically eliminate some useless spirit people with low qualifications. It can save some survival resources for the spirit people to support their superior spirits.

 Unless he was born above the tree crown and was born as a superior spirit, otherwise, if a low-class spirit born underground wants to leave the ground and ascend to the tree crown, then practicing to the level of the five internal organs is the most basic condition.

The spiritual leader said with suppressed eyes.

 The old spiritual man who was the leader of the settlement knelt down and responded to the superior spiritual man with a respectful expression.

The spirit envoy responded in a calm tone, then reached out to take the wooden plate and put away the earth spirit fruits one by one.

 The realm of the five internal organs.

These words immediately caused the expressions of many low-level spirits nearby to change. The old spirit man in the lead also trembled in his eyes and said, "Are those evil spirits... coming again?"

 “Well, there’s a little less.”

 “It’s probably in the near future.”

 “I send you to the envoy respectfully.”

The old spirit man and many other spirit men were worried, but they did not dare to say anything. They all bowed and sent each other off, and then quickly began to discuss how to deal with the invasion of evil spirits.

 …

The green-skinned spiritual envoy walked through the underground caves extending in all directions.

In previous years, when he came to such a remote place to collect offerings, he would stay and enjoy it for two days. Although he didn't look down on these low-level spiritual beings, it was rare for him to travel such a far distance, so it was natural for him to enjoy himself for a few days. However, it was the right time these days. In times of crisis, this kind of peripheral area is full of dangers. He doesn't know when he will bump into those extraterrestrial people who invade this world, so he will not stay too long.

only.

Just after he walked through a spacious passage, he suddenly stopped.

His pair of green eyes stared forward, and the pupils shrank visibly. He only saw a figure in front of him in his line of sight. Whether it was skin color or appearance, he was completely different from the spirit humans. Although He couldn't feel the other person's breath, but he broke out in cold sweat almost immediately.

 People from outside the world!

When he was collecting the earth spirit fruit, he clearly asked the people in the tribe. There had been no abnormal situation recently. Why would someone from outside the world suddenly appear here and block his way forward? !

The spiritual envoy almost without thinking, his whole body suddenly glowed with a green luster, his inner breath was mobilized, and his whole person seemed to turn into a fish swimming between heaven and earth, and he was about to shuttle and escape all of a sudden.

but.

 Before he took a step forward.

I saw the figure opposite standing with hands behind his back, a glimmer of light in his eyes, and the power of heaven and earth nearby suddenly solidified, and a terrifying pressure filled the air. Almost in an instant, this spiritual man was brought up. Make the oppressor bow to the ground!

“With this appearance, are you a high-ranking spiritual person?”

Chen Mu casually glanced at the spiritual envoy in front of him. He had also heard about the fact that the spiritual people were divided into upper and lower clans and was not surprised. However, he was a little surprised to meet the upper clan spiritual people underground. .

He was still following Yan Hong and others, and he had just arrived at the large settlement. However, when Yan Hong and others took action, he noticed some unusual signs in the fluctuations between heaven and earth, so I followed him all the way, and sure enough I caught a different character.

 Speaking in the mouth.

But Chen Mu did not let the spiritual envoy answer, but just stepped in. With a simple stroke of his fingertips, the pocket carried by the spiritual envoy was torn open, revealing one of the emerald green fruits. .

“Hmm, is it really the Earth Spirit Fruit?”

 Seeing this pile of green fruits, Chen Mu did not show any surprise.

The Earth Spirit Fruit is a unique output of Xunmu Cave Heaven. It is also a kind of heaven and earth spiritual creature. It is quite similar to the Earth Element Green Lotus Seed. After swallowing it, it can enhance the understanding of heaven and earth.

certainly.

This is not the most critical thing. The most important thing is that the Earth Spirit Fruit happens to be one of the spiritual objects used together with the Xunmu Spiritual Liquid. It can increase the effectiveness of the Xunmu Spiritual Liquid. Although he does not have the Xunmu Spiritual Liquid in his hand yet, But it was only a matter of time to get some. Being able to get some Earth Spirit Fruits in advance would naturally be a harvest for him, and the trip was not in vain. After putting away all the Earth Spirit Fruits, Chen Mu looked at the Spirit Envoy, only to see that he was suppressed and kneeling on the ground, trying to struggle all the time. There was even more hatred in his eyes, and he spoke with difficulty. Talking about something.

"…die."

Even though Chen Mu couldn't understand human language, he could still roughly tell that the other party was cursing.

“Tell me where there is Xunmu Spiritual Liquid nearby, maybe I can spare your life.”

 Chen Mu asked the other person calmly. Although he didn't understand the language, his words went straight into the other person's ears. With the cultivation and realm of this spiritual envoy, it should not be difficult to understand his words.

However, after hearing Chen Mu's words, the other party didn't react much. He still looked at Chen Mu with hatred in his eyes and kept repeating the previous few curse words in his mouth.

boom.

When Chen Mu saw this, he didn't bother to torture him. With a casual squeeze, the power of the nearby heaven and earth squeezed inward. With a bang, the spiritual envoy was crushed into powder and turned into dust and scattered on the ground. No bones or blood were left behind.

After killing the spirit envoy, Chen Mu stepped forward with a calm expression, and his figure quickly disappeared into the cave. He returned all the way, and after a while, he returned to the previous settlement of the spirit people.

 At this moment.

 The whole settlement was in a mess, with corpses of spirit beings everywhere.

This large settlement with about a thousand people living together was naturally defenseless against the attacks of Yan Hong and many other masters, and all of them were wiped out almost instantly.

At this time, Yan Hong, Yan Zhengyang and many other masters were gathering in the center of the tribe, and they saw an extremely thick Xunmu root system running across the place, penetrating the cave from bottom to top.

The root system of this extremely thick tree, which can be carried by several people, has many chiseling marks on its surface. It was obviously destroyed by Yan Zhengyang and others, and it penetrated for about several feet.

Yan Hong stood right in front of the crack, inserted a hand into the crack, closed her eyes, and the Yuan Gang and inner energy around her body were constantly surging, as if competing with the thick Xunmu roots. What are you wearing?

 About a moment later.

　　唰!

Yan Hong pulled out her palm from the broken root system of Xun Mu.

A small group of emerald green spiritual liquid appeared in her palm, exuding a little bit of fluorescence. With only a rough perception, you can feel the rich vitality and the rich spiritual power of heaven and earth contained in it.

 Xunmu Spiritual Liquid!

Looking at the small ball of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid in his hand, Yan Hong finally showed a smile on his face.

Only this kind of extremely strong and very special root system node can extract the Xunmu Spiritual Liquid from it. Now that I have arrived at Xunmu Cave, I have finally had my first harvest.

And the extremely thick Xunmu root system, which she refined and extracted the Xunmu Spiritual Liquid, was obviously dimmed at this time, and became dull, especially near the cracks that were dug, it showed a... Some signs of dryness.

"Not bad."

Yan Zhengyang looked at the small ball of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid in Yan Hong's hand and couldn't help but smile a little, saying: "This portion is almost two taels."

Although Xunmu Spiritual Liquid is quite precious, it is not calculated in drops, but in pounds. However, having two ounces of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid is considered valuable. Most of the people present, The amount of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid required is only about two or three kilograms.

 This group can meet one-tenth of a person's needs.

However, if it is spread out and evenly distributed to everyone, it is not too much, or even slightly less.

"Your Highness, I see like this. The harvest efficiency is too slow as we pass each settlement one by one. It is better for us to split up for a round before the spirit tribe reacts, and then reunite when we are about to go deep into the hinterland."

 After a moment of pondering, a master suggested to Yan Hong.

Xunmu Cave has only been opened once in more than a hundred years. It is basically the first time for everyone to step in, so they are naturally more cautious. However, they have not encountered any trouble or danger along the way. It is quite easy to collect Xunmu Spiritual Liquid, and there are people Not satisfied with efficiency.

After all, there are nearly twenty Grandmasters present. It will take some time to get enough Xunmu Spiritual Liquid if we continue to explore like this. Instead, it is better to split up temporarily and sweep an area as quickly as possible.

In short, we are still on the outskirts of Xunmu Cave, and the only threat here is the ancestor of the spirit people. We have separated for the time being, and the possibility of running into the ancestor of the spirit people is not very high.

As soon as this proposal came out, others immediately agreed.

Yan Hong held the ball of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid, but he thought for a moment, looked at Yan Zhengyang, and said:

 “What does Mr. Yan think?”

 “Although it is risky, you can give it a try.”

Yan Zhengyang thought for a moment and then responded.

There were more than one or two grandmasters who entered the Xunmu Cave. It was a queue of hundreds of people. At this moment, I am afraid that some people directly went to the tree crown to attack the settlements of the superior spiritual people to fight for the wood spirit liquid.

Although the Spirit Ancestor is dangerous, he is only one person and has no skills at all. They are now underground and on the periphery, and their actions are deliberately hidden and restrained. The possibility of attracting the Spirit Ancestor is indeed not high.

If you are operating above the tree canopy, it is indeed better not to disperse, but there is no need to be too vigilant underground for the time being.

  “Also good.”

Hearing what Yan Zhengyang said, Yan Hong nodded slightly, looked at everyone present, and said, "If you want to split up, you can do so for the time being, and return here to reunite in two days."

They entered Xunmu Cave. No matter how well-hidden they were, two days would be enough time for the Spirit Human Race to react. By then the situation would become much more dangerous, and it would be best to regroup and act together.

"good."

After listening to Yan Hong's words, someone immediately responded, and without any hesitation, the figure fled far away in a flash.

Chen Mu came a little later, but also heard the previous discussion, but did not react. Instead, he turned his attention to the ball of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid in Yan Hong's hand. After a brief observation, he asked for a portion from Yan Hong. .

Yan Hong did not refuse, and with a slight stroke of her fingertips, a small portion fell towards Chen Mu.

 “Xunmu Spiritual Liquid…”

Chen Mu stared at the small amount of spiritual liquid in his palm. After a brief inspection, he opened his mouth slightly, took a drop from it and swallowed it into his belly. He quickly digested it. He was not in a hurry to use this little bit of Xunmu spiritual liquid to temper his body, but It's just a temporary measure of the effect.

While digesting this drop of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid, he called up the system interface and took a look.

The effect is indeed good. Judging from the increase in experience, only about ten kilograms of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid is enough for him to temper the Qiankun Martial Body to a perfect level. And when he has some Earth Spirit Fruit in his hand, There will be less demand.
