"Pill Master Mo, I've placed the three stalks of Body Constructing Grass here …" Seeing that Mo Wuji was still staring at the spiritual herbs on the ground, Yu Zhi took out three jade boxes.
Mo Wuji retracted his gaze from the pile of spiritual herbs on the ground and said to Yu Zhi, "Brother Yu, even though your pile of spiritual herbs is still missing a few ingredients for the Body Constructing Pill, they are not particularly valuable. I believe you can buy them from outside …"
In reality, Mo Wuji was excited to see the Heaven Ginseng and the 10,000-year-old Longyan Grass in the pile of spiritual herbs. One must know that he urgently needed these herbs. The Heaven Ginseng and the Dark Yellow Ginseng were ginsengs of the same element. However, the Heaven Ginseng was a Tier 4 spiritual herb. Replacing the Dark Yellow Ginseng with the Heaven Ginseng would increase the medicinal effect by more than 10 times.
These were the top grade spiritual herbs that he needed to concoct the channel opening solution. Now, they were all in front of him. Coupled with the 100,000-year-old Pine Pulse and the Purple Lotus, he was only lacking the top grade Lingzhi.
As for the Fire Crystals of higher purity, he didn't have any. He did see some Fire Crystals of higher purity, but it was a pity that he was robbed before he could pick up a few pieces. Even if he did not have the purer Fire Crystals, he had the better Fire Crystals. Previously, he had taken the Fire Crystal from the Earth Fire Vent. That Fire Crystal was definitely better than the Fire Crystals.
"Pill Master Mo, is the fresher the spiritual herbs, the better it is?" Yu Zhi suddenly asked an irrelevant question after hearing Mo Wuji's words.
Mo Wuji nodded, "Of course. The fresher the spiritual herbs, the higher the efficacy of the concocted pills. However, it is not easy to find the freshest spiritual herbs. These spiritual herbs were freshly dug up. Even though they were not preserved well, they are still considered the freshest spiritual herbs. "
As for the preservation of spiritual herbs, Mo Wuji did not know much about it. He could only buy some jade boxes from merchant houses. These jade boxes were engraved with Preservation Runes, which could preserve the spiritual herbs for a long time. Other than that, fresh spiritual herbs could be made into dried spiritual herbs. The efficacy of dried spiritual herbs was slightly lower than fresh spiritual herbs. However, this did not make much of a difference to a top grade pill refiner.
Now that Mo Wuji had come into contact with the Array Dao, he no longer needed to purchase Preservation Jade Boxes from other merchant houses. He could totally refine his own Preservation Jade Boxes.
"Brother Yu, don't worry. I will definitely find a way to refine the Body Constructing Pill for you. Even if I don't have the pill formula now, I'll think of something. You have a few herbs that are useful to me, I wonder if you would be willing to part with them? "Mo Wuji could not help but ask.
The meridian opening solution was too important to him. Once he went out, it wouldn't be easy to find spiritual herbs of the same grade, not to mention buying such fresh spiritual herbs.
Yu Zhi pushed all the herbs towards Mo Wuji, even the three jade boxes, before saying, "Pill Master Mo, these are all yours. I only ask that you help me concoct a batch of Body Storing Pills. No, I don't want one furnace, just three. Even one is enough for me. "
Mo Wuji looked at Yu Zhi doubtfully, "Brother Yu, why do you trust me so much?"
Yu Zhi smiled faintly, "I believe that Pill Master Mo is a trustworthy person."
In reality, Yu Zhi was feeling extremely helpless. In order to concoct the Body Constructing Pill, he lost count of the number of pill refiners he had sought. He had almost used up all the wealth left behind by his family. However, the Body Constructing Pill was nowhere in sight, or rather, there was no news about it at all. Many Earth Pill Refiners did not even bother to meet him.
Mo Wuji was the first and only pill refiner who agreed to help him concoct pills, and even promised to concoct the Body Constructing Pill. Other than trusting Mo Wuji, he had no other choice. He decided that from now on, he would follow Mo Wuji all the way until Mo Wuji successfully concocted the pill.
In reality, he had more than three stalks of Body Constructing Grass. He had a total of six stalks, and kept three just in case. Other spiritual herbs were easy to find, but the Body Constructing Grass was too rare. In order to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain and obtain the Body Constructing Grass, he spent all his wealth at the auction just to buy a bracelet.
Yu Zhi did not know that the bracelet in his hand was sold to him by Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji could tell what Yu Zhi was thinking, and immediately said, "Wait a moment."
With that, Mo Wuji quickly circled to a hill tens of metres away, and took out a big bag and his Tian Ji Pole from his storage bag. Then, he returned and said, "I only have one bag, and my bag is temporarily unable to store all these spiritual herbs …"
He did not dare to reveal his storage bag. After all, there were too many things coveted by others in his storage bag. Just the two stalks of the Five Year Absolute Soul Crystals were already very dangerous.
Without waiting for Mo Wuji to finish speaking, Yu Zhi took out a storage bag out of nowhere and passed it to Mo Wuji, "Pill Master Mo, this storage bag is for you. Your spiritual herbs can be placed in this storage bag."
"Ah …" Mo Wuji looked at Yu Zhi hesitantly. Even if he helped Yu Zhi concoct the Body Constructing Pill, it would not be worth so much. He did not even give the pill formula to Yu Zhi.
"As long as Pill Master Mo can help me concoct the Body Constructing Pill, a mere storage bag is nothing," Yu Zhi said with a firm tone.
Mo Wuji saw that there was a storage bag by Yu Zhi's waist, and he knew that this storage bag was probably obtained by him from the blood stains on Yu Zhi's body.
"Alright, then I will keep it. Many thanks," Mo Wuji knew that he would definitely be able to help Yu Zhi concoct the Body Constructing Pill, so he did not waste any more words.
Seeing that Mo Wuji kept the storage bag, Yu Zhi continued, "Pill Master Mo, the reason why I asked you if fresh spiritual herbs would be better for concocting pills is because I know of a place that is full of fresh spiritual herbs."
Hearing this, Mo Wuji looked at Yu Zhi in surprise, "Hurry and bring me there."
Yu Zhi might not be interested in fresh spiritual herbs when he found the Body Constructing Grass, but he was different. He was an alchemist. Moreover, his channel opening solution was still lacking a top grade lingzhi.
"Alright, Pill Master Mo can follow me," Yu Zhi answered without hesitation.
Mo Wuji kept all the spiritual herbs on the ground into the storage bag, then hung the storage bag by his waist, and followed Yu Zhi back in the direction that Yu Zhi came from.
...
Three days later, Yu Zhi and Mo Wuji arrived at the depths of a canyon. Mo Wuji saw many corpses here, and other than that, there was only a mess on the ground.
"Back then, a huge herb garden was discovered here. In order to fight over the spirit herbs, everyone fought each other. I risked my life to snatch those spiritual herbs, and the Body Constructing Grass was found here. Moreover, I heard that there is a spiritual herb garden in the depths of this canyon, "As he spoke, Yu Zhi pointed to a deeper part of the canyon.
"Then what's there to say? Let's go, "Mo Wuji said without hesitation. They were only fighting over spiritual herbs, and he only wanted the lingzhi. Even if the lingzhi was tens of thousands of years old, it was only a Tier 4 spiritual herb. There shouldn't be anyone who would fight with him over a stalk of lingzhi, right?
The two of them continued deeper into the canyon, and after walking for half a day, they saw the mess on the ground again. Other than that, there were some smashed spiritual herbs, but no corpses.
Mo Wuji was speechless. Fortunately, there were no pill refiners around. If a pill refiner saw so many precious spiritual herbs smashed into smithereens, his heart would bleed profusely.
As they walked forward, they saw a few more places that were robbed.
"From the looks of it, this valley was originally a spiritual herb producing area …" Mo Wuji suddenly stopped as he looked at the two sides of the valley.
Yu Zhi noticed Mo Wuji's change, and immediately said, "There might be spiritual veins under these two sides of the canyon, and that's why there are so many top grade spiritual herbs growing here."
Mo Wuji came to a realisation. No wonder he felt the spiritual energy getting thicker after entering the canyon. So there were spiritual veins under these two sides of the canyon. Fortunately, there were spiritual herbs everywhere in the canyon, otherwise, Mo Wuji suspected that these two sides of the canyon would have been dug out by people.
"Boom boom boom!" A series of explosions could be heard, and dazzling lights from magic treasures shot into the sky. Following that, the sound of magic treasures clashing and grunts could be heard.
"We're in front," Yu Zhi quickened his pace.
Mo Wuji hurried to catch up. After the two of them turned a corner of the canyon, they saw tens of cultivators fighting over spiritual herbs. Some of the spiritual herbs on the ground were trampled into a mess, but no one paid any attention to them.
Even when Mo Wuji and Yu Zhi came over, no one stopped to fight over the spiritual herbs.
"Pill Master Mo, what spiritual herb do you think it is, I'll fight for it …" Yu Zhi stood beside Mo Wuji, and had already drawn out his half moon blade.
"It's that stalk of Lingzhi …" The first thing Mo Wuji saw when he arrived was a meter tall stalk of Lingzhi. His spiritual will landed on this stalk of Lingzhi, and he knew that it was at least a 100,000 years old stalk of Lingzhi.
The value of Lingzhi had always been low in the cultivation world, so no one had tried to fight for it. This was what he needed even in his dreams.
As Mo Wuji spoke, he had already pounced forward. He had to get his hands on this stalk of Lingzhi.
"Scram …" Just as Mo Wuji reached the side of the Lingzhi, an angry roar could be heard. Following that, a huge pair of scissors opened its mouth, trying to cut Mo Wuji in half.
Just as Mo Wuji wanted to see how far his strength was from a real Spirit Building Stage cultivator, he shifted his body and swung his Tian Ji Pole down with all his might.
Strictly speaking, this was Mo Wuji's first time using his Tian Ji Pole against an enemy. Previously, he wanted to smash Dong Lun into pieces, but unfortunately, his Ice Burst Talisman was too powerful. Before his pole could even reach Dong Lun's head, he was already frozen.
"Ka!" The Tian Ji Pole and the huge pair of scissors clashed, and elemental energy exploded. A violent force swept towards Mo Wuji, and Mo Wuji felt as though his chest was being smashed by a metal hammer. His entire body was in a state of paralysis.
The gap was too big. Before Mo Wuji could even process this thought, the pressure on his Tian Ji Pole instantly weakened.
Mo Wuji was overjoyed, and he did not care what caused his opponent's strength to weaken. He swallowed a mouthful of blood that had reached his throat, and the Tian Ji Pole in his hand started to swirl with elemental energy.
During his counterattack, Mo Wuji finally understood why his opponent's strength had weakened. Yu Zhi's half moon blade landed on this fella's back, almost splitting his stomach open.
