"No, that's not right …"
In contrast to the astonishment of the crowd, Zhang Xuan frowned deeply.
Naturally, it wasn't the Earth Vein Spirit Essence that could awaken the spirit of the Bodhi Tree but … Heaven's Path zhenqi!
The Heaven's Path zhenqi harnessed immense vitality that could neutralize even lethal poison. Even if the spirit of the Bodhi Tree was in a deep slumber, it should still be able to awaken successfully.
However, what left Zhang Xuan perplexed was that … the spirit of the Bodhi Tree didn't seem to have been injured but poisoned!
The Heaven's Path zhenqi was incomparably pure, allowing it to flow freely through the spirit of the Bodhi Tree. As such, Zhang Xuan was able to clearly discern the condition of the spirit of the Bodhi Tree.
It wasn't an injury at all.
Ordinary injuries, great loss of vitality, and all kinds of symptoms. At this moment, his spirituality was fighting against a lethal poison.
More importantly, this lethal poison …
"It's … the Verdant God Poison!"
Zhang Xuan's eyes widened in bewilderment.
Many people might not know what the Verdant God Poison was, including the principals of the Master Teacher Academy. However, if one were to say that it was a lethal poison concocted from the [Green-leafed Heart Linking Grass] and the [Soulless Flower] … many people should be able to recognize it immediately!
It was the lethal poison that You Xu had fed him during the Life-and-Death Physician Duel back then!
Once consumed, the lethal poison would corrode one's heart and mind, and even a Saint realm expert would find it hard to survive. Even though the Bodhi Tree was a saint herb, it was still unable to withstand such a lethal poison … The fact that the spirit of the Bodhi Tree was still able to persist for so long meant that even though Elder Zhao and the others had taken the wrong approach, they had still nourished the Bodhi Tree with quite a bit of nourishment.
"Two years ago, You Xu came here, and the Bodhi Tree fell ill … Could there be a connection between the two of them?"
Zhang Xuan frowned.
It was extremely difficult to concoct such a lethal poison, and it was extremely rare. You Xu even came here before … Could he be the one who had poisoned the Bodhi Tree?
But … since Yu Shenqing had sent You Xu over to retrieve the 'sprout', there was no way the two of them were related.
Since that was the case … why would Yu Shenqing poison the Bodhi Tree?
"That is something that His Majesty should be troubled over. it has nothing to do with me …"
Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment, but he was still unable to come to a conclusion.
The Bodhi Tree, Yu, and the Bodhi Tree were the Bodhi Tree was nourishment, Wei Ruyan Tree. As for who the Yu Shenqing Yu Shenqing was poisoned the Bodhi Tree and the Emperor Yu Yu Shenqing Yu Shenqing Yu Shenqing had the Emperor Emperor...
After emptying the gourd of Earth Vein Spirit Essence, Zhang Xuan infused several dozen surges of zhenqi into the Bodhi Tree, and the frail Bodhi Tree regained its vitality.
"Alright …"
"Thank you, Zhang shi …"
Zhang Zhang Zhang Yu Yu, Zhang Yu Yu Yu Zhang Xuan.
The Bodhi Tree was the foundation of their Yu Clan, and once it was destroyed, the Yu Clan wouldn't be able to hold on for long before disappearing into the annals of history. Initially, they thought that it would be impossible for them to recover, but who could have thought that the young man before them would be able to find the cause of the illness so easily and treat it in less than half a day?
The faces of Elder Zhao and the others reddened in embarrassment. If they could, they would have dug a hole to hide in.
They had said that the other party was ignorant, but in the end, the other party was able to cure the Bodhi Tree so easily. On the other hand, they, the 'knowledgeable' ones, had persevered for two years, only to end up walking down the wrong path!
Just the thought of it left them ashamed.
"Zhang Shi, if you have the time, do you mind giving us a lesson? Our Sun Clan is willing to offer a hundred stalks of spirit medicine and three stalks of saint medicine as the price!"
An elder stepped forward.
Even so, the other party was able to see through the illness with a single glance and find a way to cure it. His herbology skills were truly astounding.
If they could invite the other party to conduct a lesson, their clan would surely advance by leaps and bounds, and it would only be a matter of time before they surpassed the other clans.
"Zhang Shi, come to our Chen Clan. We are willing to offer a hundred and fifty stalks of spirit medicine and five stalks of saint medicine!"
Another elder stepped forward.
All of them knew what Zhang shi meant to them.
"Zhang Shi, come to our Zhao Clan …"
"Come to our Liu Clan …"
…
Seeing their old friends rushing forward, Elder Zhao and the others couldn't hold themselves back any longer.
"Thank you for your kind offer, but I don't have any plans to conduct a lesson for the time being!"
Seeing the crowd surrounding him, without the arrogance from before, acting as respectful as primary school students, Zhang Xuan shook his head.
It wasn't that he didn't want to teach them, but he didn't know much about herbology. Even if he wanted to, he didn't know where to start!
The reason why he was able to treat the Bodhi Saint Tree was due to his Eye of Insight and Library of Heaven's Path. His herbology knowledge had nothing to do with it.
If he were to conduct a lesson, he would surely be exposed.
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was unwilling, Elder Zhao and the others could only back down in disappointment.
"Your Majesty, everyone, I happen to have some personal matters that I wish to use the Bodhi Saint Tree for, and it might involve some personal secrets …"
Seeing that the Bodhi Saint Tree had fully recovered, Zhang Xuan turned to the crowd.
"It has been hard on all of you over the past two years to treat the Bodhi Saint Tree. I'll have someone prepare a banquet now. Let's head over together!"
Understanding Zhang Xuan's intentions, Yu Shenqing turned to the crowd with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"We didn't do much, we are truly ashamed of ourselves …"
The few elders nodded in understanding before following behind Yu Shenqing out of the room.
Soon, Zhang Xuan was the only one left in the courtyard. There was no one else around.
Flying into the air, Zhang Xuan saw that Yu Shenqing had even ordered the guards to stay away, and only then did he heave a sigh of relief. With a thought, the delicate Wei Ruyan appeared before him.
With the expansion of the Myriad Anthive Nest, he had been keeping it by his side for the past few days. This way, it would be more convenient for him to treat the Bodhi Saint Tree in time.
Drawing out his soul, Zhang Xuan summoned Wei Ruyan's soul and infused it into the Bodhi Saint Tree through a unique method.
Previously, he had been observing the Bodhi Saint Tree carefully, and he noticed that the Bodhi Saint Tree was extremely effective in nourishing souls.
As soon as Wei Ruyan's soul entered the Bodhi Saint Tree, Zhang Xuan's soul entered as well, and he immediately felt the former's weak soul slowly recovering.
"Hmm? Her recovery speed sure is fast … "
Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up. "To think that the Bodhi Saint Tree would become Wei Ruyan's fortuitous encounter after being afflicted by the Emerald God Poison for two years!"
If it had been an ordinary Bodhi Saint Tree, even with its massive trunk, it would have been unable to nourish Wei Ruyan's Poison Soul Constitution for long. In the end, the effects would have been negligible, just like the Ten-leafed Flower.
However, after being afflicted by the Emerald God Poison for two years, the Bodhi Saint Tree had already developed a certain level of resistance to poison. On top of that, the Poison Soul Constitution also possessed the ability to devour any poison that came in contact with it.
In other words, not only would the Poison Soul Constitution not poison the Bodhi Saint Tree, it would even help it devour the Emerald God Poison!
This way, Wei Ruyan's soul would be nourished even more, allowing her to recover even faster.
"If that's the case, I should be able to awaken her within a day …"
Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.
He had been wondering where he could find so many living saint herbs to nourish the Bodhi Saint Tree, and with the massive size of the Bodhi Saint Tree, it should be sufficient.
It seemed like he had made the right decision in saving the Bodhi Saint Tree.
Even though he had wasted a huge amount of Earth Vein Spirit Essence, as long as he could save Wei Changfeng's daughter, it was worth it.
Returning his soul back to his body, Zhang Xuan had just placed Wei Ruyan's body into the Myriad Anthive Nest when a voice suddenly sounded by his ear.
"Master, may I trouble you to come in?"
Hearing the voice, Zhang Xuan frowned.
It was none other than the Myriad Anthive Queen.
After devouring the folded space left behind by Kong Shi, that fellow had been busy expanding the Myriad Anthive Nest. Based on its calculations, it should have taken at least two to three months to complete the expansion. It had only been five days, so why was it calling for him?
However, the Myriad Anthive Queen rarely looked for him. Since it had called for him, there was bound to be a reason for it. Thus, Zhang Xuan entered the Myriad Anthive Nest.
The Myriad Anthive Nest had more than doubled in size from before. It was twenty meters wide, and it was as if two basketball courts were placed side by side.
The Byzantium Helios Beast and Jin Yuan Ding were standing in the middle of the Myriad Anthive Nest.
"What's wrong?"
Impressed by the Myriad Anthive Queen's prowess, Zhang Xuan walked up to it.
"Master … I was too naive. I thought that I would be able to complete the expansion in two to three months, but my cultivation is still too low. Perhaps … I might already be unable to control such a large space!"
The Myriad Anthive Queen replied awkwardly.
Previously, it had confidently declared that it would be able to turn the folded space left behind by Kong Shi into a Myriad Anthive Nest within two to three months. However, from the looks of it now, that wasn't the case at all.
Its cultivation was only at Perfect Harmonization realm, so controlling a space with a diameter of ten meters was a walk in the park for it. However, controlling a space with a diameter of twenty meters was already too much for it.
Given its current strength, if it were to continue expanding the Myriad Anthive Nest, the space would collapse before it could even be completed.
"Unable to control the space?" Zhang Xuan's face turned grim.
That made sense. Even though the Myriad Anthive Queen possessed a unique constitution that allowed it to control space despite being at Perfect Harmonization realm, there was a limit to its ability. If it were to forcefully expand the space, it could very well suffer a backlash.
"Is there a solution to this problem?"
Zhang Xuan asked.
"There is … but it is rather troublesome!" The Myriad Anthive Queen shook its head.
"Tell me about it!" Hearing that there was a solution, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.
"It will be fine as long as I can raise my cultivation swiftly. As long as I can reach Saint realm, not only will I be able to expand the space at a faster rate, my control over space will also become more formidable.
The Myriad Anthive Queen replied.
"Raise your cultivation swiftly? That's simple! "
Zhang Xuan was still wondering how complicated the solution would be, but upon hearing those words, he heaved a sigh of relief. Chuckling softly, he placed his palm on the Myriad Anthive Queen's body and infused a surge of pure Heaven's Path zhenqi into it.
Since the Heaven's Path zhenqi could purify one's bloodline, naturally, it could raise one's cultivation as well.
Kacha! Kacha!
Under the nourishment of Zhang Xuan's zhenqi, the Myriad Anthive Queen's body trembled, and its cultivation soared.
Six hours later, under the nourishment of Zhang Xuan's zhenqi and Earth Vein Spirit Essence, the Myriad Anthive Queen's cultivation had reached Ethereal Treading realm primary stage.
However, Zhang Xuan's current cultivation was only at this level. He couldn't allow it to advance any further.
Even though Ethereal Treading realm pinnacle was an entire cultivation realm higher than Perfect Harmonization realm pinnacle, it was still a long way from reaching Saint realm.
"Master, I heard that the Beast Hall has the blood essence of a Saint realm Myriad Anthive Queen. If I can obtain it, I will be able to advance my cultivation swiftly …"
After reinforcing its cultivation, the Myriad Anthive Queen suddenly recalled something and said.
