Chapter 250 River Island
Fang Qing glanced at Zhan Hongxiu, who was sitting cross-legged and swallowing pills, but ignored her.
Cultivators are resilient; as long as they don't die immediately, they always have ways to preserve their lives.
He formed hand seals and used the "Water Dividing Ring" to manipulate the black water river, causing it to continuously flow into the "Mystic Spring Purification Bottle" and even the "Sea Swallowing Bottle".
Splash!
Within the countless black waters, something inexplicably was stirred, carrying wisps of strange water vapor, which were drawn in by the rays of [Ji Shui] light and fell into the "Mystic Spring Pure Bottle." This was none other than the water vein of the "Three Thousand Weak Waters"! The so-called "water veins" and "springs" are, compared to the Three Thousand Weak Waters, the difference between a cow and milk!
No matter how much of the Three Thousand Weak Water Fang Qing absorbed, it was all stored goods; once used up, it was gone.
However, after absorbing the "Three Thousand Weak Water Veins," the "Mystic Spring Pure Bottle" could continuously generate the "Three Thousand Weak Water," enough to set up a "Weak Water Grand Array" when he returned home. "Not bad, not bad, this Three Thousand Weak Water is rarely seen in the outside world... It's excellent for both combat and alchemy."
"In terms of value, it is even higher than that of a third-tier high-grade dragon without the 'Abyss Eye Pearl'..."
Fang Qing carefully put away the "Miraculous Spring Purification Bottle" which was faintly surrounded by black energy, and looked at Zhan Hongxiu.
Zhan Hongxiu slowly finished her cultivation, wiping the blood from her face. She then put the unconscious Longevity Turtle into her spirit beast pouch. Her pretty face was pale, revealing a hint of a woman's fragility. "How are you, fellow Daoist? The dragon's corpse is here; let's divide it..."
Fang Qing, always a man of principle, pointed to the dragon's corpse beside him, now devoid of the "Abyss Eye Pearl," and said, "However, that essence pill should be mine." "Fellow Daoist is joking," Fang Qing replied. "This dragon was almost entirely slain by you; all the spoils should rightfully belong to you..."
Zhan Hongxiu gave a bitter smile. Her current condition was extremely poor, and her strength had even fallen below the Core Formation stage.
If the other party wanted to kill her, it would be effortless.
Surprisingly, this "fellow Daoist Bai" was even willing to share the spoils with her, which made him a rare and kind person.
"Fellow Daoist has also contributed a lot, such as that third-tier lightning pearl."
Fang Qing carefully put away the dragon pearl and casually distributed some dragon blood and dragon scales to Zhan Hongxiu.
Zhan Hongxiu glanced at him gratefully and did not refuse.
Fang Qing, unaware that he had already been given a "friend zone" card, gazed at the Weak Water River and said, "Let's go... perhaps there are some medicinal herbs on that island in the middle of the lake to cure your injuries, fellow Daoist and your spirit pet." After he had separated a waterway, the Weak Water River in front of him had become considerably "thinner," and the scenery behind it could even be faintly seen. "Let's go!"
Fang Qing released the "Water Dividing Ring," and with the wondrous power of the "Water Dividing Ring," the black river was directly severed in the middle.
A series of azure-green rays of light from the [Ji Shui] flashed by, and Zhan Hongxiu no longer felt the drowning power. She could fly and arrived at the Blackwater River with Fang Qing. Before them was a small island surrounded by the Three Thousand Weak Waters. The island's furnishings were very simple, consisting of only a medicinal garden and a few thatched huts. In the center of the island, a magnificent azure tree soared into the sky, radiating rays of life force, giving it the aura of an "Emperor of Trees." "Azure Emperor Tree!"
Fang Qing stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the ancient tree with a sigh: "Judging from its appearance, it must be at least ten thousand years old, right? It's the perfect material for crafting wood-attribute magic treasures!" He became even more vigilant upon arriving at this island in the lake. With a wave of his hand, low-level puppets appeared, all of them only around the first or second rank. They were casually acquired by Fang Qing during his travels through the markets over the years and were of little use, serving only as cannon fodder.
Snap! Snap!
These puppets grew larger upon landing, transforming into shield-and-sword-wielding guards, as well as winged tigers, swift wolves, and other beast-like forms, and began surveying their surroundings. "Huh? There aren't any restrictions or traps?"
A moment later, the results came. Fang Qinglu was somewhat surprised, but then he came to his senses: "That's true... This place is already considered the 'living area' of the master of this secret realm. Setting up restrictions and traps in one's own bedroom is just asking for trouble."
Zhan Hongxiu, pale-faced and somewhat agitated, arrived at the foot of the Green Emperor Tree.
There, under the Green Emperor Tree, a small garden of spiritual herbs had been cultivated. It was not large, with only a dozen or so spiritual herbs.
But each one contains the essence of heaven and earth, radiating extraordinary spiritual energy.
"That's... Jade Dragon Blood Ginseng? And Heavenly Chrysanthemum? The cooking technique is truly astonishing..."
Fang Qing glanced around casually and spotted several medicinal herbs, his expression shifting slightly.
Both of these spiritual herbs are important auxiliary materials for refining the "Condensing Marriage Pill".
He glanced around again and couldn't help but feel a little regretful: "It's a pity... there are no Heavenly Bride Fruit Trees."
"The Azure Emperor Tree is the emperor of trees, able to protect the growth of other spiritual herbs, but tree-type spiritual herbs are easily robbed of their essence and cannot survive under its canopy..." Zhan Hongxiu squatted in front of an orchid, her expression excited.
"Nine Illusion Heart Orchid? With this spiritual object, Elder Turtle can awaken... My and Longevity Turtle's mere spiritual injuries are nothing to worry about... Fang Qing had already transformed his Dao Foundation and was now "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix," and heard all of this clearly."
He looked over and saw that the orchid was pure white, with nine petals, each petal seemingly formed from moonlight, exuding a serene and ethereal aura. He asked, "Fellow Daoist, do you recognize this spiritual object?" "Indeed, this object is called the 'Nine Illusion Heart Orchid,' which can enhance the soul and heal injuries to the divine sense... Just what I need. In addition, there is this Azure Emperor Great..." Zhan Hongxiu said, "Besides these, I can give all these spiritual herbs to you, Fellow Daoist."
"The Azure Emperor Wood and the Divine Soul Elixir were agreed upon by us beforehand, so there's no need for you to be so polite, fellow Daoist... With so many elixirs, we're only missing one 'Heavenly Infant Fruit' to make up the difference for a 'Condensing Infant Pill,' so I'm the one who's benefiting."
Fang Qing smiled slightly and began to harvest.
The herbs that can be grown here are truly rare and precious medicinal herbs, extremely valuable, and rarely seen in the outside world.
Although he did not have the formula for the "Condensing Marriage Pill" on hand, he had already inquired about the relevant materials.
Several important auxiliary materials can be found here.
It can be said that this already accounts for 50-60% of a pill formula! And the remaining materials can be found outside, which together make up 90%! Only the most important ingredient, "Heavenly Bride Fruit," remains. Once we obtain the real pill formula, we can try to open the pool for pill refining.
"With my current alchemy skills, even if I obtained a 'Heavenly Bride Fruit,' I might not dare to use it..."
Fang Qing shook his head, carefully storing the Jade Dragon Blood Ginseng, Tianyingzi, and other spiritual herbs using different techniques, and then glanced at Zhan Hongxiu.
The woman was sitting cross-legged, taking "Nine Illusion Heart Orchid".
"It seems that old turtle is about to wake up... I'd better be careful from now on."
Fang Qing circled the island once, and after confirming that there was nothing else of note, he finally turned his attention to the three thatched huts.
The hut had no restrictions and opened with a gentle push.
He first entered the room on the left, where he saw that the furnishings were very simple, with only a long wooden table on which were placed jade slips, a small bell, an ancient lamp, and other items. Fang Qing had a humanoid puppet step forward, picked up the jade slip, and found nothing unusual about it.
He took the jade slip and scanned it with his divine sense. Instantly, countless dense characters appeared.
"The 'Tortoise and Crane Longevity Manual'...The Complete Text of Spirit Transformation!"
"This cultivation method actually has several life-extending methods after the initial marriage, enough to make a cultivator's lifespan far exceed that of an ordinary initial marriage... and there are even a large number of secret techniques." Fang Qing glanced at it briefly, and was most interested in the two secret techniques.
"The Big Dipper controls death, the Southern Dipper controls life... These two secret techniques, those beginning with 'Big Dipper', excel at exchanging life for life, using one's own lifespan to consume the lifespan of the enemy... while those beginning with 'Southern Dipper' can plunder the lifespan of fellow practitioners of the 'Turtle and Crane Longevity Technique.' Although there are many limitations, it is still terrifying enough..."
Fang Qing put down the jade slip and examined the small bell and ancient lamp, discovering they were rare treasures, the kind that would make even a Nascent Soul cultivator envious and eager to seize them. He then went to the thatched hut on the right and found it completely empty.
"The owner of this place must have tidied everything up before leaving..."
Fang Qing felt puzzled and opened the door in the center of the room.
The last thatched hut was completely empty inside, except for a prayer cushion with a string of prayer beads on it.
"This futon must be woven from 'Nine Purple Ju Cang'... When cultivators sit on it, they can calm their minds and spirits, and prevent inner demons from arising..." "This string of prayer beads is probably carved from 'Ten Thousand Year Soul Nourishing Wood'... As expected of cultivators from the Zhou Tian Star Palace, everything they eat and use is of the finest quality." Fang Qing sighed with emotion, then looked up and was stunned.
On the wall in front of him hung a portrait.
The portrait depicts a figure in blue robes carrying a sword, but the face is completely blank!
He accepted the explanation.
Hehuan Mountain Gate.
Tian Youliang held a magical artifact for absorbing qi and was releasing an attack formation.
He didn't want to think about what had happened before, but he felt that the atmosphere in the team had been very strange lately...
"This mountain gate formation was established by the True Lord. What use is it for us to attack it?"
"Alas, I heard that before my ancestor died, he left a will that his descendants should not go east or north, otherwise great calamity would surely follow... Now I have traveled thousands of miles east, and I am afraid I will have to fulfill this oath." Thinking of his younger brother, Tian Youliang couldn't help but feel sad.
The world is ever-changing; how can ants control everything?
above the sky.
Streams of divine light flashed and solidified in the void.
The gate of Hehuan Mountain still stands proudly and unmoved.
"Vairocana Dharma King...this formation was set up by the Golden Elixir True Lord. How can we break it? Please advise..."
A group of Dharma Kings came before Dharma King Vairocana and respectfully sought his teachings.
The Dharma King Vairocana held a golden scroll in his hand, his expression calm and serene, as if he had just awakened from meditation.
"The return of [Stomach Earth] has already altered many causes and effects..."
"Our secret attack on Hehuan lies in the same matter..."
"The so-called attack by a large army is merely a question; the World-Honored One, Tathagata, awaits the answer from that 'Prince of Buyeo'..."
He spoke in a language Sangji couldn't understand, and the golden scroll in his hand slowly unfurled, revealing a scroll depicting hell. Within it seemed countless spaces, each stroke containing a brilliance far surpassing supernatural powers. Only at the beginning of the scroll was a line of secret golden script inscribed: "The Hellish Map of Jambudvipa!"
Buddha Jewel!
Sangji was deeply moved, his very bones trembling: "This is a 'Buddha Treasure' personally drawn by the Buddha and imbued with his Buddha-nature!" As the scroll unfurled, strange ghosts and gods, far more terrifying than those in the Purple Palace, appeared, as if crawling out of the Eighteen Mani Hells. They were adorned with skull prayer beads and held vajras and other objects, each descending to earth. The many secret golden statues around them all shrank by more than one head...
Then all was still, except for one after another hellish hell crashing down on the gates of Hehuan Mountain...
