Talk About Bragging, How Do You Really Have The Qualifications Of The Great Emperor?

Chapter 21: Yellow Springs Water, Soul Nurturing Lotus, Underworld Seal!

Interesting.

Wang Xiu slowly reached out his hand and touched the rock wall.

There was no barrier where his finger landed, it turned out to be a clever illusion.

He pushed aside the vines.

Wang Xiu walked into the rock wall, and before his eyes, the light flickered and turned into a rocky passage that twisted and turned, leading straight underground.

After walking along the tunnel for about a few hundred meters, a stone door appeared before his eyes.

There were formations engraved on the door.

They weren't particularly profound, probably added after the Tiger Demon came.

Four small soul pets emitted a faint light, condensing into a series of seals, striking towards the stone door.

Boom!

The stone door opened with a loud noise, and a strong Yin energy rushed towards them, instantly lowering the temperature of the passage by dozens of degrees, causing their breath to turn into frost.

This was a huge cave about twenty zhang in size, with a height of about three zhang. The rock walls were covered with layers of ice.

The Yin energy in the cave was extremely dense, almost like a Sacred Land for ghost cultivators.

In the center of the cave.

There was a circular pool that occupied almost half of the cave.

The water in the pool was not normal clear water, but turbid yellow mud, which gave people an inexplicable sense of fear.

"This is Yellow Springs Water!"

"Why would the Yellow Springs of the Underworld appear here in Clear Moon Mountain?"

"Could it be..."

"Is there a passage to the Underworld hidden beneath this mountain?"

As a descendant of the "Underworld Emperor's Prison Suppression Scripture," Wang Xiu was very sensitive to things from the Underworld like Yellow Springs Water, and he immediately sensed that something was wrong.

Yellow Springs Water.

The water from the River of Forgetfulness in the Underworld, mixed with the soil of the Underworld.

It cannot be consumed by living beings.

However, for many Yin attribute and ghost attribute Spirit Medicines, it is an unparalleled nourishing treasure.

At this moment.

In that turbid Yellow Springs Water, there were white lotuses growing, standing tall and emitting an intoxicating fragrance that made even the soul unable to help but relax.

"Soul Nurturing Lotus!"

Wang Xiu pondered, "No wonder that Tiger Demon was able to control forty to fifty Foundation Building Stage ghosts at the same time. It turns out he had this kind of Spirit Medicine."

Soul Nurturing Lotus.

A special Spirit Medicine that can only grow in extremely Yin places. Its growth cycle is very long, and it is said to take hundreds of years to fully mature.

When consumed by ghost creatures, it can nourish the soul and enhance cultivation speed.

However.

Only a prodigal son like the Tiger Demon would choose to use Soul Nurturing Lotus, such a precious Spirit Medicine, to nurture little ghosts.

The greatest use of this Spirit Medicine is to treat soul injuries of cultivators.

For those whose soul injuries are not severe, consuming a petal can heal them.

If the soul is seriously injured.

Using the lotus seeds as raw materials, Soul Replenishing Pills can be refined, which, when taken regularly, can gradually heal the injuries.

Under normal circumstances.

A Soul Nurturing Lotus with a normal appearance can sell for at least nearly a thousand spirit stones on the black market.

If such Spirit Medicines are scarce in the market and there are many people with soul injuries, the price can increase several times, or even tenfold.

Just like the current chaotic world, with constant battles between the righteous and demonic factions.

All major Immortal Gates have seniors who have suffered soul injuries from fighting against demons, waiting for Spirit Medicines to heal them.

Once Soul Nurturing Lotus appears on the black market, it will inevitably cause a frenzy of bidding. Even if it is of ordinary quality, it can be sold for two thousand spirit stones as if it were a game.

Here.

There were densely packed Soul Nurturing Lotuses, with at least over a hundred blossoms, and dozens of them were already fully bloomed, making it dizzying to look at.

Moreover.

Each one had excellent quality. If the quantity was controlled and slowly introduced into the market, the unit price could reach at least three thousand spirit stones, or even higher!

"I'm going to make a fortune!"

Wang Xiu couldn't help but narrow his eyes and smile, "Only the Yellow Springs Water from the Underworld can supply so many Soul Nurturing Lotuses to grow, and their quality is still Supreme Grade."

According to Wang Xiu's observation.

Under the nourishment of the Yellow Springs Water, the growth speed of these Soul Nurturing Lotuses was simply unimaginable.

Estimating it.

There was no need for hundreds of years at all. They could be harvested once a year, which would be enough to scare people if it were said out loud!

"In the future, this will be the branch of my Divination Lineage."

Wang Xiu smirked.

From the storage bag, he took out a blank flag and wrote the words "Divination Lineage Branch, Do Not Enter" in big letters, then inserted it in front of the stone gate.

Continuing on.

He began to carefully harvest the blooming Soul Nurturing Lotuses, as gentle as caressing a girlfriend.

After all, these were all valuable spirit stones!

Soon enough, Wang Xiu had harvested all the fully bloomed Soul Nurturing Lotuses, a total of thirty-four, leaving behind those that had not yet bloomed or whose medicinal effects had not reached their peak. Wang Xiu did not pick them.

This kind of Spirit Medicine only has its strongest medicinal effects when fully matured. If picked prematurely, the effects would be greatly reduced, and the price would naturally be discounted.

"That's what I'm saying."

Wang Xiu looked at the pool of yellow spring water and squinted his eyes, saying, "With so much yellow spring water, you shouldn't be able to use it all! Otherwise, how about giving me some to take away?"

"Like this."

"In the future, on Spirit Turtle Peak, I can also get lotus seeds and grow some brothers and sisters for you."

"If you don't speak, I'll take it as your agreement."

After saying that, Wang Xiu took out a jade bottle from the storage bag, carefully engraved the "Water Attraction Spell" on it, and aimed it at the yellow spring pool.

Collect~!

The yellow spring water, which emitted a strong underworld aura, immediately turned into a torrent and poured into the jade bottle in Wang Xiu's hand.

The small bottle seemed like a bottomless pit.

It was able to hold several large water barrels' worth of yellow spring water, barely filling it up.

Then, Wang Xiu took out a second jade bottle.

Two bottles!

Three bottles!

Four bottles!

Five bottles!

...

Sixteen bottles!

Seventeen bottles!

...

Soon enough, the yellow spring pool, which was several meters deep, was only left with a thin layer of two feet, and the roots of the Soul Nurturing Lotuses were almost exposed.

Of course, Wang Xiu knew that the yellow spring water contained the aura of the underworld.

Even if it was only two feet deep, it was completely enough to supply the growth of these Soul Nurturing Lotuses. It didn't need a whole pool of water.

Huh~

Suddenly, Wang Xiu frowned and noticed a raised stone platform in the center of the pool, which was significantly higher than other areas.

He cleaned the dirt off the stone platform with water.

Wang Xiu discovered that it was an Eight Trigrams Diagram engraved with countless Daoist formations. From the aura it emitted, it should be a sealing formation.

Perhaps due to the passage of time, a crack appeared on this sealing stone platform, and the yellow spring water was slowly seeping out from this crack.

However, judging from the speed at which the yellow spring water was seeping, it would take at least a thousand years to fill up such a large pool.

"There is indeed a passage to the underworld sealed here, and there seems to be a problem with the seal."

Wang Xiu's gaze became serious.

There are many spatial cracks in the mortal world that lead to the underworld, Beast World, or Demon World.

Most of these cracks are discovered and sealed by major Immortal Gates.

But as the formations gradually lose their energy over the long years, the seals may loosen or even be damaged.

The catastrophe on Sea Demon Island eight hundred years ago was caused by the destruction of the seal to the Demon World.

Although the danger of this passage to the underworld in front of him was not as great as the seal to the Demon World on Sea Demon Island, it should not be underestimated.

From the patterns of the seal, this should be the most powerful spatial sealing formation of the Three Purities Immortal Gate Formation Lineage, the "Taiji Sealing Heaven Formation." It is the strongest existence among spatial sealing formations.

Outside the "Taiji Sealing Heaven Formation," there are several other formations that have been added. Although Wang Xiu couldn't recognize them, judging from the remaining Dao Rhyme, they should be the ultimate techniques of the Formation Lineage.

...

The fact that the Three Purities Immortal Gate Formation Lineage, which is still in its peak period, is so cautious shows the importance of this seal.

Perhaps, in the distant past, a tragic event of the underworld invading really happened here.
