"It's here. This place seems to be the weakest." Shen Luo's gaze quickly landed on a slightly sunken area in the middle of the green jade. With a flip of his hand, he took out the mother-son sword.
With a "clang", he summoned a sub sword and cast a spell to activate it.
An extremely thin sword ray shot out from the sub sword and pierced into the sunken area of the green jade.
With a soft "thud", a small dent was made in the green jade, but it was not pierced through.
"This jade is so hard!" Shen Luo's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.
This sub sword was a high grade magic tool with seven layers of restrictions. The sword ray that was activated could even easily pierce through thick iron plates, but it actually could not pierce through this green jade.
He pursed his lips and changed the spell in his hand. The sub sword immediately spun like a drill, and the sword ray that was shot out also spun rapidly and slowly sank into the green jade.
After a few breaths, a "pu" sound was heard, and a rich fragrance followed.
Shen Luo hurriedly cast a spell to keep the sub sword. A chopstick-sized hole that was a few inches deep was drilled out of the green jade.
Through the hole, one could vaguely see the milky white liquid inside, and it was emitting a strange fragrance.
"It's really the thousand-year spirit milk!" He was delighted and cast a spell.
The thousand-year spirit milk also contained water. It was immediately activated by the water manipulation spell, and a small amount of spirit milk flew out of the hole.
After leaving the green jade, the spirit milk truly appeared in front of Shen Luo. Although it was milky white, it had a hint of yellow, and the color was not very pure.
"As expected, if I take out this spirit milk now, the age is not enough. I don't know if it will affect the medicinal effect." Shen Luo thought to himself. He took out a white jade bottle and caught the spirit milk, filling half of the bottle.
The white spirit milk gently rippled in the bottle, and a strange fragrance assailed the nose, making one unable to resist taking a sip.
However, Shen Luo had already investigated. Although the spirit milk in the stone was a rare treasure and had the effect of reviving the dead, it also contained a lot of stone energy. It could not be taken directly, otherwise, it would harden the internal organs, and it would do more harm than good.
"According to the ancient records, the thousand-year spirit milk's medicinal effect is too strong. If one wants to refine it into an elixir, one would need a very powerful alchemy skill. I can only go to Chang 'an to find it." He thought as he put away the jade bottle and muttered.
He then blocked the hole in the green jade and put it in his storage magic tool.
When the fragrance in the air dissipated, Shen Luo removed the water cover in the room and went to bed to rest.
"Who is that old man? He was able to calculate my purpose for coming to Tang Qiu County and the location of the thousand-year-old Spirit Milk. He was clearly someone with great divine abilities. Why would he want to be a swindler? Could it be that he is playing a game in the human world? "He thought.
No matter who the old man was or what his purpose was, Shen Luo planned to look for him again after dawn. On the one hand, he wanted to thank the old man for helping him find the thousand-year spirit milk. On the other hand, he didn't want to miss such a master. Maybe he would need his help in the future.
The night passed quickly. When the sky just brightened, he got up and left the room, and went to the foot of the Hundred Flowers Mountain.
Yesterday, the old monk said that he would come here again today.
But Shen Luo waited until late in the morning, but the old monk and his disciple still didn't show up.
Besides Shen Luo, many people also came here to wait.
When the sun went down, the old monk still didn't show up, so the crowd had to leave.
But Shen Luo didn't leave. After the crowd left, he went to the place where the old monk set up the stall yesterday and released the Shadow Gu.
Little Zi fell on the ground, crouched down, sniffed the ground a few times, and then suddenly jumped forward.
Seeing this, Shen Luo quickly followed.
Little Zi took Shen Luo around the outside of the town, and finally came to an abandoned ancient temple in the north of the town. It cooed to Shen Luo.
Shen Luo frowned. Little Zi's cooing meant that the smell suddenly stopped here, and it couldn't continue to track.
"You have worked hard. Go and rest." He waved his hand and put Little Zi back into the bag. He walked into the ancient temple to explore, but he didn't find any clues.
"How could the smell stop? There is no water here. Could it be that the old man flew away? If he is really a master, it is not impossible. "Shen Luo stood outside the temple and muttered to himself.
If the old man really flew away, the smell would be carried away by the wind, and the speed of dissipation would be very fast. According to the Medicine Immortal Collection, it would only take half a day for the Shadow Gu to not be able to track him.
Shen Luo didn't want to give up. He stayed in Tangqiu County for two more days, searching inside and outside the town every day, but he still couldn't find the old man's trace.
In desperation, he had to give up and leave Tangqiu County. He put a Divine Travel Armor Talisman on his legs and went straight to Chang 'an.
…
Three days later.
Shen Luo stood on a high slope, looking into the distance.
Thousands of feet away from here, there was an incomparably grand city. The city walls were hundreds of feet high and were built with huge pieces of green jade. It looked both spectacular and clean.
The huge city wall extended to both sides and stretched to the end of the vision. There was no end to it.
Compared with it, people were as insignificant as ants.
It was the capital of the Tang Empire, Chang 'an.
Outside Chang 'an was a moat hundreds of feet wide. The waves in the moat were turbulent, and it was not inferior to some big rivers.
Many white jade bridges were placed on the moat, connecting to the city gate, and people were shuttling back and forth.
Teams of Palace Guards patrolled the city wall and the white jade bridges. These Palace Guards were all wearing bright silver armor, carrying long spears. Their footsteps were loud, and each of them was majestic.
Looking into the distance, within the city walls, there were wide roads that extended in all directions. Everywhere, there were convoys of carriages and pedestrians. There were also tall buildings and palaces that rose from the ground and stretched forward in an orderly fashion. There was no end in sight.
Countless rivers flowed through the city, and the blue waves rippled. Ships and flower boats sailed on them, and thousands of sails and hundreds of barges competed.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Shen Luo's eyes were filled with amazement.
Although he had heard of the magnificent Chang 'an, the capital of a country, he was still shocked when he saw it.
Jianye City was also an important city of the Tang Empire. There were many streets and carriages, but compared with Chang 'an City, it was like a small and old county.
"Chang 'an City is indeed the capital of the Tang Empire. The surrounding countries have surrendered. Just looking at the majesty of the capital, other countries will have the desire to surrender." Shen Luo sighed in his heart.
Not only was the city large, but when he approached Chang 'an City, he noticed that the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth here was much richer than in other places.
Shen Luo was not surprised. Chang 'an City was the intersection of the spirit veins of the entire Nanzhan Continent. It was the best place for spirit veins. Otherwise, the founding emperor of the Tang Empire would not have set the capital here.
In the dream, his cultivation had reached the late stage of the Mahayana Realm. Now that he was back in reality, his cultivation had dropped a hundred times, but he still had some foresight.
