The Scarlet Fire Toad that was originally floating on the surface of the water and seemed to be cultivating suddenly felt something was wrong. With a whoosh, a layer of raging flames suddenly appeared on its two thick scarlet shells, turning it into a fireball in an instant.
As soon as the green-black Yin Qi wrapped around it, the flames were immediately extinguished with a series of sizzling sounds.
The Scarlet Fire Toad let out a peculiar shriek, and the two thick shells suddenly opened, spitting out a silver-white inner core.
This inner core spun around its body, and a torrent of silver fire poured out to meet the green-black Yin Qi. For a moment, there seemed to be a stalemate.
With a "chi" sound, a red light suddenly shot out. The outer flames and silver fire of the Demonic Beast could not stop it at all, and it was directly shot into the golden soft flesh of the two shells.
A bowl-sized bloody hole appeared on the Scarlet Fire Toad's soft flesh. The silver fire was also extinguished, and the green-black Yin Qi took the opportunity to wildly surge, completely enveloping the Demonic Beast and lifting it up.
Immediately, this mid-tier Level Four Demonic Beast lost all signs of life.
"Damn it!"
Weisuo, who caught this mid-tier Level Four Demonic Beast, frowned instead.
Just now, the fire of this Demonic Beast had consumed a lot of his Black Fiendish Yin Qi. At least twenty to thirty times of dual cultivation would be needed to replenish it.
The Black Fiendish Great Technique and his current extremely powerful consciousness were indeed the best combination in terms of gathering resources. However, it seemed that he still could not easily use the Black Fiendish Yin Qi to directly capture Demonic Beasts of Level Four and above. Otherwise, a lot of Black Fiendish Yin Qi would be consumed.
After this lesson, Weisuo would try his best to kill Demonic Beasts of mid-tier Level Three and above with the magic tools in his hands. Only Demonic Beasts of mid-tier Level Three and below or when gathering Spiritual Herbs would be directly captured with the Black Fiendish Yin Qi.
Fifteen to sixteen days later, Weisuo and the others appeared above a large island in the Hibernating Sea of Qi.
The name of this large island was very tacky. It was called "Turtle Shell Island," but it had a radius of several hundred miles, and was covered with various trees and plants.
This Turtle Shell Island was one of the main destinations of Weisuo and Kyah's trip. According to Hua Huayong's notes, this island grew many Spiritual Herbs.
In these fifteen to sixteen days, Weisuo had gathered resources along the way. The Demonic Beasts and Spiritual Herbs that he had captured had already filled four storage pouches.
Two days ago, Wei Suo and Jiya had stopped at a small coral reef island to do a careful inventory.
Currently, Weisuo had more than four thousand Demonic Cores that were suitable for refining Golden Spirit Pills. The number of Demonic Cores was sufficient, the key was the other ingredients in the recipe.
Kyah and Old Man In Green Clothes had spent a lot of effort to assemble the recipe. Other than the ingredients that could directly refine about two hundred Golden Spirit Pills, Weisuo had the highest possibility of refining a large amount of Immortal Water Pills. The main ingredients of this Immortal Water Pill were Mid-Tier Level Three Water-Type Demonic Cores, Green Immortal Stem, Dragon Beard Algae, and Red Hair Grass. The medicinal effect was about twice that of Golden Spirit Pills.
The Green Immortal Stem was a type of plant that grew in water with long, thin stems and leaves. The Dragon Whisker Algae was a seaweed that resembled long whiskers.
Weisuo had discovered two large patches of these two plants under the sea several days ago. After a round of harvesting, the Green Immortal Stem and Dragon Whisker Algae he had on hand were enough to refine more than two thousand Immortal Water Pills. However, the Red Hair Grass was a terrestrial Spiritual Herb. Weisuo had only gathered five stalks from two small islands along the way.
Now, Weisuo and Kyah hoped that there would be more Red Hair Grass on this Turtle Shell Island.
The Immortal Water Pill's medicinal effect was twice that of Golden Spirit Pills. The refining time was also about twice that of Golden Spirit Pills. With Weisuo's current cultivation, he could refine twenty Golden Spirit Pills in a day. If it was the Immortal Water Pill, he could refine about ten Golden Spirit Pills.
According to Weisuo's estimation, he would need about two hundred and eighty days to break through from the fifth layer of Zhou Tianjing to the first layer of the Split Thought Realm.
If he could refine two thousand Immortal Water Pills, it would be equivalent to taking care of two hundred days of cultivation. He only needed to take care of the remaining eighty days of cultivation.
… …
After taking a quick look at the entirety of Turtle Shell Island from the air, Wei Suo used a flying Dharma treasure shaped like a willow leaf and landed at the southernmost tip of the island.
He carefully took out the yellow mountain-like defensive magic treasure of the disheveled haired cultivator and held it in his hand. Then, he slowly moved forward in a zigzag pattern.
From time to time, he would capture plants that could be used to concoct pills, and Jiya would categorize them and put them into the storage pouch.
Hua Huayong's notes were completely correct. There were indeed many spirit herbs on this island.
Weisuo traveled from the south to the north. After searching a third of the island, he had already collected over three thousand spirit herbs of various colors. Among them, there were many types of spirit herbs that Kyah and Old Man In Green Clothes didn't recognize.
"Golden Crown Flower!"
Suddenly, Weisuo's eyes lit up with pleasant surprise. About two hundred feet in front of him, there were five Golden Crown Flowers growing at the bottom of a cliff.
The Golden Crown Flower was a type of spirit herb with black stems and golden flowers that resembled a cockscomb. This type of spirit herb was similar to the Spirit Nurturing Grass and the Golden Spotted Ginseng. It could also nourish one's consciousness. Although its medicinal effects were weaker than the Spirit Nurturing Grass and couldn't compare to the Golden Spotted Ginseng, it was still an astonishingly rare spirit herb. When ordinary cultivators couldn't find the Spirit Nurturing Grass, they would look for the Golden Crown Flower instead. Now, five stalks of Golden Crown Flower were equivalent to two stalks of Nurturing Spirit Grass.
Without any hesitation, Wei Suo reached out and grabbed at the air. Blackish-green Yin Qi surged out and grabbed at the five Golden Crown Flowers.
When the azure-black Yin Qi was only a dozen or so feet away from the five Golden Crown Flowers, a beam of green light suddenly surged out from behind the mountain wall, blocking Wei Suo's azure-black Yin Qi.
Soon after, a strangely dressed cultivator emerged from a small cave in the cliff.
This cultivator was short and stout. His white hair hung loosely behind his head. He wore a black leather robe with short sleeves. He looked to be in his sixties and looked very ferocious. In his hand was an octagonal green jade mirror with a very simple shape. The edges of the jade mirror were covered in runes that resembled seaweed. At the center of the mirror were five carp-like runes.
"Who dares to steal this old man's Golden Crown Flowers?" The cultivator appeared with a vicious expression.
"Hmm?"
Weisuo was startled. This cultivator had been hiding in the cave behind them. He was about fifty meters away from the Golden Crown Flowers, which was beyond the range of Weisuo's spiritual sense. As such, Weisuo wasn't able to sense his presence. Weisuo scanned with his spiritual sense and discovered that this cultivator's cultivation was at the third level of the Split Thought Realm.
Without waiting for Wei Suo to reply, the white-haired cultivator with a ferocious expression extended his hand and took out a peculiar magic treasure.
This magic treasure seemed to be carved from yellow crystals. It was about a foot long and appeared to be a sunflower. As he infused it with his True Yuan, the magic treasure emitted rings of yellow light, which quickly dispelled the surrounding white Hibernation Qi.
Very soon, the white hibernation qi within a radius of 1,600 to 1,700 feet around this cultivator completely disappeared. It was empty, and the scenery was very clear.
However, when he saw that there were no cultivators within a radius of 1,600 to 1,700 feet around him, the cultivator's expression immediately became fearful.
This was because he felt that the power of the dark green Yin Qi wasn't very shocking, so he felt that the other party's cultivation was much weaker than his. He was using some kind of aura-concealing magic treasure, so he couldn't sense the specific location. But now that he summoned this magic treasure, the other party was simply casting the spell from a distance of 1,600 to 1,700 feet away.
"What, could it be that you grew these Golden Crown Flowers?" Sensing the cultivator's fearful expression, Weisuo's eyes flashed and he deliberately snorted. He activated his spiritual sense and pressed it towards the cultivator.
"This junior has eyes but failed to see! It's actually a Golden Core Stage Senior! "Feeling the pressure of this Spiritual Sense, the white-haired cultivator revealed an expression of shock and explained," These Golden Crown Flowers were not planted by this Junior, but when this Junior discovered them, they were not yet mature. This Junior used many methods to hasten their growth, allowing these five Golden Crown Flowers to grow to their current state.
"Then you mean to say that these five Golden Crown Flowers belong to you? I can't harvest them? "Weisuo coldly snorted.
"This junior didn't mean that." The white-haired cultivator was covered in cold sweat and said, "These Golden Crown Flowers are very useful to this junior. This junior only wants to beg senior to leave two for me."
"Leave two for you?" Weisuo calmly said, "If you can give me some benefits that I'm satisfied with, I can agree to your request and leave one or two Golden Crown Flowers for you."
Hearing that Wei Suo wasn't without room for negotiation, the white-haired cultivator immediately asked, "Senior, what kind of benefits do you want?"
"How many pills do you have on you that can be used for cultivation?" Weisuo asked.
The white-haired cultivator hesitated for a moment and said, "I have a hundred and fifty White Water Pills."
"Only that many White Water Pills?" Weisuo's cold voice sounded, "These hundred and fifty White Water Pills aren't enough. Otherwise, just based on the fact that you dared to attack me just now, I could have killed you. Give me all the spirit stones you have. Also, do you know where there is a large amount of red hair grass in this Hibernating Qi Sea? "
