Chapter 286 Ginseng Berries
"This, this is purple gold jade coral! Didn't this thing become extinct in the Great Wilderness? Why are there so many of them!?"
“Mirage Pearl! It’s actually a Mirage Pearl that can only be condensed by a Mirage Monster in the Fusion Stage!”
The cultivators who entered the ancient cave for the first time, whether they were from Meizhou or from first-rate sects, were stunned by the scene before them.
It is luxurious to the point of returning to basics, without any hint of showing off.
And this is just the entrance to the ancient cave!
The Meizhou monks who didn't know the value of things had already begun snatching the resources in front of them, while the monks from the first-rate sects quickened their pace and moved deeper into the cave.
Dayu's expeditionary army would never leave the ancient caves alone. The two saints took action only to prevent the ancient caves from being directly taken away. It won't be long before Dayu's expeditionary army will directly attack these three ancient caves. At that time, there will be a major sweep, and not even a hair will be left on the ground.
So time is running out, and if they really want to gain something, they have to go straight to the deepest part of this ancient cave.
Only a fool would waste time for some petty gains in front of him.
Li Lin also entered an ancient cave.
The monks from the sects were all attracted by the ancient cave, and the plans arranged by the Taoist sect were forgotten. No one wasted time pretending to be an ancient monk, so Li Lin had a particularly comfortable journey.
He did not go straight to the depths of the ancient cave like those monks from other sects, but collected the cultivation resources with respect.
No matter how good the skills are or how powerful the magic weapon is, it is not as good as down-to-earth practice. For Li Lin, these resources for practice are the most valuable things in this [Ancient] cave.
Ji Fa also came to the ancient cave that Li Lin entered. When flying over the heads of the cultivators, Ji Fa noticed Li Lin who was collecting cultivation resources, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, but Ji Fa did not stop, but continued to sprint towards the depths.
The Holy Son Xuantian, who followed Ji Fa, did not stop and did not notice Li Lin's existence.
As the Holy Son of Xuantian Sect, Xuantian Holy Son has also reached the realm of half-step tribulation. He disdains the operation of some sects in the Taoist sect to sow discord between noble marquises and commoner marquises. In this world, only the strong are respected, and no matter how many tricks the villains use, it will be useless. For Xuantian Holy Son, the plan to sow discord between noble marquises and commoner marquises is a boring trick.
Therefore, the Holy Son Xuantian had only heard of Li Lin's name.
Rather than the plan of provoking the common people, the Holy Son of Xuantian is now more concerned about the sudden appearance of the ancient cave and the reason why Ji Fa couldn't wait to enter it.
As the eighth prince, Ji Fa had everything he needed. No matter how wealthy this ancient cave was, could it be as wealthy as Dayu?
But recently there have been some other rumors, saying that Ji Fa is the famous tomb robber Female Chen Fa, the descendant of the ancient tomb robbers, who is good at stealing luck and improving her cultivation through tomb robbing.
The same scene also took place in another ancient cave. Ji Ling'er rushed into the depths of the cave without saying a word. Even if the Son of Hunyuan who was chasing behind her provoked her, Ji Ling'er ignored him.
The originally bustling Jiuyin land has become deserted again due to the departure of the monks, and the shadow of Taotie is still roaring.
It looked menacing, but since there was no one around, it looked particularly pitiful.
Li Yanmo and the other two came to the scene leisurely and simply ignored the roaring Taotie phantom.
Li Yanmo and Leng Ningshuang naturally looked down upon this drop of beast's blood. Huang Shangshang was somewhat tempted at first, but when she thought that she had already formed a top-grade golden elixir, she also ignored the beast's blood.
"Is this the legendary Nine Yin Land?" Leng Ningshuang looked around and scratched the back of his head in confusion. "It doesn't look strange. Did we come to the wrong place?"
As the favored daughter of the Huantian Sect, Huang Shangshang had naturally been to the Jiuyin Land. Seeing Leng Ningshuang look down on the Jiuyin Land so much, Huang Shangshang felt that she needed to say a few fair words for the iconic area of her hometown.
"This Jiuyin Land is just a large black market. There's really nothing special about it."
Leng Ningshuang nodded thoughtfully.
"If there really was something special, Zhou Yi and his team wouldn't have dug a hole in the Nine Yin Land and faked the appearance of the blood of a fierce beast."
Li Yanmo frowned, "I don't think so."
"What do you see?"
"No."
Leng Ningshuang rolled her eyes but didn't suggest leaving.
Anyway, I'm here.
Huang Shangshang hesitated for a moment and suggested, "How about we go explore the cave they built?"
Huang Shangshang felt that she could not guess what Li Yanmo was thinking, but Leng Ningshuang's idea was very simple, she just came here to have fun.
"Alright... it's a good opportunity to see their engineering capabilities."
Li Yanmo thought about it and felt that there would be no gain from wandering around here, so it would be a good choice to visit the cave built by Zhou Yi and his team.
"Three of you! Three of you, please wait for me!"
At this time, a call came from a distance, and a young man with ordinary appearance and only the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Stage staggered over.
As soon as he came up, he introduced himself, "I am Chen Youli from the Blood Sugar Sect. I wonder if I could join you three and share in the blessings?"
Li Yanmo raised his eyebrows slightly, "Blood Sugar Sect?"
"Yes, yes."
"Okay..."
The four of them slowly went down the cave and soon arrived at the first floor.
What caught the eye were large piles of skeletons of monks. Those skeletons were all wearing clothes, some had storage bags hanging around their waists, and some skeletons had some kind of plants growing inside them, with bright berries on them.
"Ginseng berries are really disgusting," Leng Ningshuang frowned.
"Ginseng berries? What are those?" Huang Shangshang's face was full of curiosity. She couldn't see anything wrong with the berries. She just thought they looked very juicy. After looking at them for a long time, she had the urge to pick two to taste.
"It's a fake imitation of spiritual fruit," Leng Ningshuang explained calmly, "Spiritual fields and spiritual fruits are all rare treasures nurtured by heaven and earth. Although they can be maintained by a large amount of resources, it still depends on luck. Once the luck is exhausted, no matter how many resources are used, the life of the spiritual field cannot be extended."
"So some sects came up with a method, which is to use the bodies of cultivators as seedbeds to plant spiritual plants."
"The spiritual plant will take root in the cultivator's body, extract nutrients, and all the cultivation will turn into fruit."
Huang Shangshang, who originally wanted to try it, felt nauseous and quickly turned her head away from the ginseng berries.
"These ginseng berries are a great tonic for the monks in Meizhou. Even if they knew the origin of these ginseng berries, they would probably eat them without hesitation," Leng Ningshuang sighed helplessly. "In the past, a demon sect secretly captured many monks in order to obtain a steady supply of high-quality berries. Not only did they turn them into seedlings, but they also forcibly extended their lives and injected them with a large amount of natural treasures that could improve their cultivation but had great side effects."
"In the end, this sect was not satisfied with cultivators, and secretly captured ordinary people. It was discovered by Emperor Yu. Emperor Yu of that generation was furious and personally destroyed the sect."
Li Yanmo pinched his nose, and the oil dragon pattern emerged from his sleeves. He opened his mouth and blew, and the surging sea of oil swallowed up all the skeleton berries. With bursts of Buddha light, the dirty oil water became transparent, like a clear spring.
Li Yanmo raised his hand and put all the bones into the storage bag.
