"It's not an ordinary Soul Fixing Root?"
A hint of confusion could be seen in Lu Rui's eyes when he saw Duan Ling Tian had woken up from his stupor. He did not know what Duan Ling Tian meant at all.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian who was awakened by Lu Rui had an excited expression on his face. "An ordinary Soul Fixing Root has a straight root … However, once it has lived for more than 1,000 years, its root will begin to curl up.
The longer it lives in this world, the more its root will curl up. "
With a raise of his hand, Duan Ling Tian grabbed the Soul Fixing Root that was completely curled up in his hand. Excitement could be seen in his eyes.
"If that's the case, doesn't this mean that this Soul Fixing Root has existed for a very long time?"
Lu Rui's eyes lit up when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. "Elder Duan, can you deduce how long it has lived in this world?"
"Judging from the degree to which its' roots' have shrunk … it has lived in this world for at least five thousand years! This Soul Fixing Root can be called a Coiling Dragon Root! "
Duan Lingtian said as he studied the Soul Fixing Root in his hand.
Coiling Dragon Root!
Lu Rui's eyes widened when he heard Duan Lingtian's words.
Naturally, he had heard of the Coiling Dragon Root before.
The Coiling Dragon Root was not just a name for a root-shaped medicinal herb. Any rare root-shaped medicinal herb that had lived for more than 5,000 years could be called a Coiling Dragon Root.
"I can't believe this Soul Fixing Root has transformed into a Coiling Dragon Root … No wonder I missed it and didn't bring it away."
Lu Rui exclaimed, "It's a good thing Elder Duan is so knowledgeable that you recognized it with just a glance … Otherwise, even if it continued to stay in our Lu Clan's treasure vault, I'm afraid it would only collect dust in the end."
"Congratulations, Elder Duan."
After Lu Rui returned to his senses, he smiled and congratulated Duan Lingtian.
"Thank you, Clan Leader."
Duan Lingtian quickly thanked him and put the Soul Fixing Root away in his Spatial Ring as though he had just obtained a treasure.
Even now, his surging emotions were still unable to calm down for a long time.
No matter if it was the Soul Fixing Root or the Soul Stabilizing Grass, they were both extremely rare treasures of heaven and earth in the entire Cloud Continent. Many people might not be able to see them in their entire lifetime.
Before this, Duan Lingtian would never have thought he would be able to obtain the Soul Fixing Root from the Lu Clan.
Although he had followed Lu Rui to the Lu Clan's treasure vault, he had the intention of trying his luck here as a last resort.
He never thought that he would be able to find the Soul Fixing Root or the Soul Stabilizing Grass here.
"Perhaps … this is what they mean by unintentionally planting a willow and growing a shade."
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
"With this Soul Fixing Root, I can concoct a medicinal liquid for Tian Wu to consume and heal a part of her soul. I only hope that Tian Wu can wake up after the part of her soul is healed."
Duan Lingtian muttered to himself. In the end, his face was filled with apprehension.
"Elder Duan, continue looking … See if you can find the Soul-stabilizing Grass as well."
Lu Rui said with a smile.
Duan Lingtian nodded and began to look at the dozens of medicinal herbs in front of him. In the end, he found nothing. "There's no Soul-stabilizing Grass here."
Although there was no Soul-stabilizing Grass, Duan Lingtian was very surprised to be able to obtain the Soul Fixing Root.
"Clan Leader, I'd like to return first."
Duan Lingtian was eager to return. He only wanted to concoct the medicinal liquid for Feng Tianwu as soon as possible. He did not want to stay here for even a second longer.
"Alright."
As the Clan Leader of Lu Clan, Lu Rui was also a shrewd person. Naturally, he could hear the urgency in Duan Lingtian's voice.
Both of them left the side hall where the medicinal herbs were stored and walked out.
They would return to where they came from.
"Clan Leader, if the clan needs grade one pills, you can give me a list … As long as the medicinal herbs are here, I can refine the grade one pills for the clan."
Duan Lingtian said to Lu Rui solemnly.
Putting aside the fact that he still needed to rely on the Lu Clan in the future, he now owed the Lu Clan a huge favor.
Perhaps Lu Rui did not know the true value of the Soul Fixing Root, but he knew it very well.
It was a treasure of heaven and earth that could repair one's soul!
It was not something that ordinary rare medicinal herbs could compare to.
Lu Rui's eyes lit up when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. "Alright! Alright! I'll give you a list later and give you the medicinal herbs, Elder Duan. "
Grade one pills!
Although the Lu Clan had one as well, it was refined by the Alchemist Guild's Main Guild in the Southern Outer Land. Moreover, they had to pay a huge sum of money.
That was not all.
The Alchemist Guild's Main Guild's Main Guild's Main Guild's Main Guild had set a limit every time he refined grade one pills for the Lu Clan.
This made them feel helpless. They could not help but wonder why the clan could not produce another grade one alchemist!
If the Lu Clan could produce a grade one alchemist, why would they need to ask the Alchemist Guild's Main Guild's Main Guild for help?
The Lu Clan had only produced a grade one alchemist close to 1,000 years ago.
Due to this reason, Duan Lingtian's appearance had given the Lu Clan hope. This meant that the Lu Clan would no longer have to look for other people if they wanted grade one pills in the future.
This was one of the reasons why the Lu Clan's people, including the Clan Leader Lu Rui, treated Duan Lingtian with respect when he revealed his identity as a grade one alchemist and expressed his intention to join the Lu Clan.
The Lu Clan urgently needed a grade one alchemist to carry the golden name of the Alchemist Clan!
Soon after, Duan Lingtian and Lu Rui left the Lu Clan's Treasure Vault and returned to the east side of the Lu Clan's mansion.
"Elder Duan, you don't have to worry about the Soul Fixing Herb … I'll get someone to spread the news and offer a reward for the Soul Fixing Herb!"
Before they parted ways, Lu Rui looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "However, before that, please draw a detailed picture of the Soul Fixing Herb for me. My understanding of the Soul Fixing Herb is limited to the rough records in the ancient books.
I'm afraid other people might not be able to recognize the Soul Fixing Herb even if they see it. "
Lu Rui told him his plan.
"Reward?"
Upon hearing Lu Rui's words, Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up immediately. He took the pen and paper from Lu Rui and quickly drew the Soul Fixing Herb that he remembered the Reincarnation Emperor Wu had seen a few times.
He did not let go of any detail.
After spending an entire 15 minutes, Duan Ling Tian finally drew a complete Soul Stabilizing Grass.
"Good drawing!"
Lu Rui's eyes gleamed when he saw the lifelike herb on the drawing that Duan Lingtian handed to him. He smiled and said, "We'll use this drawing as a blueprint and make tens of thousands of copies. We'll be able to mobilize the entire northern desert and even half of the people in the Southern Outer Land to search for the Soul Fixing Herb!"
"Clan Leader, what kind of reward are you going to use?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Lu Rui muttered to himself, "I'll have to think about the reward carefully … An ordinary reward isn't enough to mobilize all the martial artists who know about this matter to help search for the Soul Fixing Herb."
"Clan Leader, I have a suggestion."
A thought popped up in Duan Lingtian's mind out of nowhere.
"Please speak, Elder Duan."
Lu Rui looked at Duan Lingtian.
"How about this … The Lu Clan has promised that the person who finds the Soul Stabilizing Grass will be rewarded with a grade one Spirit Weapon and ten grade one Life Recovery Pills!"
Duan Lingtian said bluntly.
A grade one Spirit Weapon!
Ten grade one Life Recovery Pills!
The moment Duan Lingtian's words left his mouth, Lu Rui, the Clan Leader of Lu Clan, was taken aback.
Regardless of whether it was a grade one Spirit Weapon or a grade one Life Recovery Pill, they were extremely precious treasures even in the Inner Land, let alone in the Outer Land.
If they appeared in the Outer Land, it was enough to make people fight over them!
"Elder Duan, grade one Life Recovery Pills are still manageable. Our Lu Clan still has more than ten of them in stock … Even if we don't have enough, you can still refine them."
Lu Rui took a deep breath to calm himself down before he continued, "However, as for grade one Spirit Weapons … Even our Lu Clan only has four of them. Three of them are in the hands of the three Guardian Elders, and one of them is in my hands."
"These four grade one Spirit Weapons were passed down from our Lu Clan's ancestors. I …"
Lu Rui was interrupted as soon as he reached this part of his sentence.
"Clan Leader, I think you've misunderstood."
Duan Lingtian interrupted Lu Rui. He knew Lu Rui had misunderstood him.
"Misunderstood?"
Lu Rui was stunned.
"Clan Leader, I didn't intend to ask the clan for the reward that I suggested earlier … I'm already very grateful that the clan is willing to announce the reward through its extensive network."
Duan Lingtian nodded before he continued to say, "As for the grade one Spirit Weapon and the ten grade one Life Recovery Pills, I'll personally pay for them."
Lu Rui sighed in relief when he heard this. "I forgot that since you're a grade one Alchemist, it's not difficult for you to obtain a grade one Spirit Weapon, Elder Duan."
A grade one Alchemist could refine grade one pills as long as they had sufficient medicinal herbs.
A certain amount of grade one pills could be exchanged for a grade one Spirit Weapon refined by a grade one weapon craftsman.
Naturally, this was just Lu Rui's idea.
If Lu Rui knew that the purple-clad young man standing before him was not only a grade one Alchemist, but also a grade one weapon craftsman, one could only imagine how he would react.
"Clan Leader, I'll have to trouble you with this."
Duan Lingtian said solemnly.
"Don't worry, Elder Duan."
Lu Rui nodded. "I'll definitely handle this properly for you … With the reward that you promised, I believe even a Martial Monarch would be tempted to help you look for the Soul Stabilizing Herb personally."
"That's exactly what I want."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
After parting ways with Lu Rui, Duan Lingtian's body flashed like an arrow that was released from a bow, heading straight to the mansion that he was staying in.
"Tian Wu, Elder Brother Duan has already found the Soul Stabilizing Root … With the 5,000-year medicinal efficacy of the Soul Stabilizing Root, it's enough to heal half of your soul injury."
