"Thank you for your kind intentions,"
Su Zimo declined tactfully, "However, I still want to check out Tenebrous Night House."
When Xu Wan saw Su Zimo's rejection, she did not mention the matter anymore and went with the flow. "From what I know, apart from Xueyanggu, many cultivators from the eight major factions of Dragon Abyss Planet are here to participate in Tenebrous Night House. Do you know why, Fellow Daoist Su?"
"I don't know,"
Su Zimo shook his head. "Please enlighten me, fellow Daoist."
Xu Wan said, "There's a treasure being auctioned at Tenebrous Night House this time round. It's a leaf from the Suo Tree!"
"Hmm?"
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat.
The Suo Tree was one of the three sacred trees of the Buddhist monasteries.
Legend has it that the Buddha was once born under the Ashoka Tree and comprehended the Dao under the Bodhi Tree. Eventually, he attained nirvana and transcended under the Suo Tree!
Every single one of these three Holy Trees possessed unimaginable power!
In Tianhuang Mainland, a single withered Ashoka Flower contained the power of life, allowing Su Zimo to reconstruct Jin Dan!
Of course, in a small world like Tianhuang Mainland, there was no way he could come into contact with the three sacred trees.
In Tianhuang Mainland, a single Ashoka Flower was already an utmost treasure of the Buddhist monasteries!
To think that he would obtain traces of another sacred tree of the Buddhist monasteries, the Suo Tree, the moment he ascended to the upper world and on the remote Dragon Abyss Planet!
Even though it was just a leaf, there was definitely a great amount of power contained within this leaf!
More importantly, the Buddha had once attained nirvana under the Suo Tree.
If he could obtain that leaf, would it provide him with unexpected help in comprehending the Perfection of Nirvana Sutra as well?
"The Suo Tree is one of the three sacred trees of the Buddhist monasteries."
When Xu Wan saw that Su Zimo was silent, she thought that he had not heard of the Suo Tree and explained the background of the tree briefly.
After pausing for a moment, she continued, "If you can obtain the leaf of the Suo Tree, you'll be able to gather Heaven and Earth Essence Qi and make the surrounding Essence Qi richer."
"With that, be it the growth of immortal herbs or cultivation speed, there will be an increase."
"Oh?"
Su Zimo raised his eyebrows.
Xu Wan said, "Vitality Nurturing Grass and Rain Rain Flower take a hundred years to mature. It is said that with the help of this leaf, the maturation period of these two immortal herbs can be shortened by ten years!"
"Amazing."
Su Zimo exclaimed in admiration.
Duan Tianliang, Big Yellow, and Ying Zhao all had strange looks on their faces.
Among the people present, only the three of them knew about Su Zimo's background.
According to Xu Wan, the two immortal herbs would mature in 90 years after obtaining the leaves of the Suo Luo Tree.
And the immortal herbs around Su Zimo would mature in a year!
Just by shortening the time by ten years, it would attract the people from the eight major forces of Dragon Abyss Planet to gather here. If news of Su Zimo's ability were to spread out, it would probably alarm the Earthly Immortals and Heaven Immortals!
Of course, even if the Suo Luo Leaf could not help him in accelerating the growth of the herbs, he still wanted to get his hands on it!
The leaf had a very special meaning to his cultivation!
However, from the looks of it, there were at least seven major forces fighting for this leaf. When the time came, it would be very difficult to obtain it.
"Fellow Daoist Su, have you joined any forces? If not, why don't you join the Twin Dragons Sect? "
Xu Wan invited. "If you're willing to join our sect, the Twin Dragons Sect will definitely lend a hand in this crisis and try our best to resolve it for you."
"Thank you for your kind offer."
Su Zimo brought his fists together and said, "Let me think about it."
Xu Wan did not force him. She said, "If you've made up your mind, you can look for me at any time."
The two of them exchanged a few more words before bidding farewell to each other.
"Miss, although this person is brave, he's only a Rank Five Mystic Immortal and has a bad relationship with the Evil Wolf Army. Why did you take the initiative to recruit him?"
After Su Zimo left, the middle-aged man behind Xu Wan asked with a frown.
"I don't know either."
Xu Wan said thoughtfully, "I just feel that this person is a little special."
Actually, Xu Wan had inherited her father's bloodline and had a stream of dragon blood flowing in her body.
And Su Zimo had the Dragon Phoenix Primordial Spirit!
Even a true divine dragon would have to bow before the Dragon Phoenix, let alone the fact that Xu Wan only had a stream of dragon blood in her body!
Therefore, the moment Xu Wan saw Su Zimo, she had a special feeling.
…
Under Yue Hao's lead, Su Zimo arrived at a mansion in Dragon Lake City and handed over more than three million immortal herbs in exchange for more than 300,000 Essence Condensation Elixirs!
Including the Essence Condensation Elixirs he obtained from the Xueyanggu army, he already had close to 500,000 Essence Condensation Elixirs in his storage bag!
These Essence Condensation Elixirs were enough for him to cultivate for a long time.
"Fellow Daoist Su, if you can obtain the protection of the Twin Dragons Sect, you might truly have a chance to resolve this calamity."
Yue Hao analyzed.
Yue Hao and the others were not worried about the battle between Su Zimo and Ding Yu.
In their opinion, even if Su Zimo was defeated, he would be able to preserve his life with the methods he had revealed earlier.
The true danger was the pursuit of other cultivators after leaving Dragon Lake City!
At that moment, they did not know that the Wolf Army had already received the news and was sending an army over!
A protector of Xueyanggu was about to arrive at Dragon Lake City as well!
Although Dragon Lake City seemed calm, there were already undercurrents surging!
The subsequent developments of today's incident had completely exceeded everyone's expectations!
After exchanging for the Essence Condensation Elixirs, Su Zimo found a random place to rest and conserve his energy while waiting for night to arrive.
In his boredom, Su Zimo took out the tortoiseshell from his storage bag and examined it carefully.
Others might not be able to tell the uniqueness of the tortoiseshell, but Su Zimo had once cultivated the Black Tortoise phenomenon and possessed the innate divine power of the Spirit Tortoise Shield. Instantly, he discovered that the patterns on the tortoiseshell were strange!
Su Zimo stared at the patterns on the tortoiseshell for a long time and did not notice it even when night fell.
It was only when Yue Hao nudged Su Zimo from the side that he woke up.
"Fellow Daoist Su, Tenebrous Night Workshop is already open."
Yue Hao reminded.
Shen Fei could not hold back his curiosity and asked, "What's so special about this tortoiseshell that you're so engrossed in it?"
Su Zimo smiled and did not hide anything. "The patterns on the tortoiseshell were actually carved by later generations and there's a type of formation diagram recorded on it."
The formation diagram recorded on the tortoiseshell was far from the formations of the lower realm and was extremely profound and mysterious.
Even with Su Zimo's attainments in formations, it was quite difficult for him to understand it.
That was the reason why he was so engrossed in it that he forgot about the passage of time.
"Let's go to Tenebrous Night Workshop."
Su Zimo put away the tortoiseshell and stood up with a look of joy in his eyes.
The value of this tortoiseshell was probably more than 20 million, let alone 20,000 Essence Condensation Elixirs!
Everyone followed the crowd and before long, they arrived at an extremely ordinary looking residence.
However, after entering the residence, they saw a gigantic underground entrance.
Everyone walked down the stairs and after walking for a while, they heard a series of sounds.
After turning a corner, the path ahead opened up and a gigantic extravagant palace stood not far away. It was brightly lit and filled with people!
