#190 - Chapter 189 Xuanyin Grass
Wu Jixiong put away the array plate and said with some embarrassment, "I misjudged the enemy and almost caused a big mistake. Please forgive me, fellow Daoists!"
Qing Weihong roared with his loud voice that shook the cave walls, "Fellow Daoist Wu, you are wrong. This battle was a complete victory, so there is no big mistake. If there is anything lacking, it is only that the victory was not clean enough, and the bat demons were not wiped out in one fell swoop! Hahaha!"
Zhang Yuanjing also laughed, "Fellow Daoist Wu, there is no need to be so demanding. This battle is very good. It not only destroyed the Yin Fire Bats, but also learned about their innate abilities, killing two birds with one stone. If they were killed like cutting vegetables and chopping melons, it would only make everyone feel contemptuous. If we encounter a stronger group of Yin Fire Bats again, wouldn't we suffer a great loss?"
Lin Dushan listened carefully from the side, but a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. After Zhang Yuanjing finished speaking, he said in a hoarse voice:
"That's right, without Fellow Daoist's Four Symbols Absolute Machine Formation, if a group of Yin Fire Bats pounced down and spewed out dozens of balls of Yin Fire, what could we do other than flee in panic! Moreover, I think this formation seems to be able to unleash greater power. Fellow Daoist Wu, is it because we refined the array flags for too short a time and cannot truly unleash the power of the formation?"
Wu Jixiong's eyes flashed with joy when he heard this, and he said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Lin is right, this Four Symbols Absolute Machine Formation does have many mysteries. It is easy to deal with Yin Fire Bats below the Great Perfection of the Qi Awakening Realm. However, we are also temporary allies, so where would we have time to practice? In a hurry, it is very good to be able to use the formation to this extent."
Lin Dushan chuckled, "I am too greedy. It is enough to have this formation to trap the bat group, first consume its power and Yin Fire, and make it weak, so that we can deal with the Yin Fire Bats and pick the Mysterious Yin Grass. How can we always think about passing easily and gaining without working!"
Qing Weihong shouted, "Fellow Daoist Lin's idea is not greedy. This time we encountered only a small group of Yin Fire Bats, and the formation was not fully successful, so it doesn't matter. But if we encounter hundreds or even hundreds of them, it will be dangerous. Fellow Daoist Wu, if you have a way to improve the power of the formation in the short term, you might as well say it, and we can try it. It doesn't matter even if it doesn't work."
Wu Jixiong pondered for a moment and said with some embarrassment, "There is a way, but it is necessary to stimulate everyone's potential with special pills. This... will cause some damage to you! Let's do this, I will explain in detail if needed."
Then, his eyes rolled, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Now, let's go pick that Mysterious Yin Grass first, lest someone else take advantage of it."
The three of them laughed when they heard this. Having reached this point, the probability of encountering other cultivators is almost zero.
However, despite the laughter, the four of them had already moved their feet. Zhang Yuanjing still controlled the magic weapon to lead the way in front, and the other three followed closely behind, rushing towards the direction from which the Yin Fire Bats came.
After passing through two forks in the road, the four entered a narrow cave passage.
At this time, Wu Jixiong still grabbed a gray monkey next to him, but he was guarding against another bat group nearby. Although the probability of this is very small, if this happens, he can warn in advance, so as not to be blocked in the narrow cave passage by the Yin Fire Bat group that is good at hiding. If that is the case, there is almost no way to survive.
After walking for four or five miles, the front suddenly opened up, and the four entered a large cave with a radius of hundreds of feet. Looking up, the top of the head was densely packed with small holes, about three feet above the ground, which was the Yin Fire Bat nest.
At this time, there was a rustling sound from the nest, but no Yin Fire Bats came out.
Zhang Yuanjing looked around a few times, but did not see any plants. He felt a little strange and asked, "Fellow Daoist Wu, is there no Mysterious Yin Grass here?"
Wu Jixiong pointed to the top of his head and said, "Mysterious Yin Grass grows upside down, all growing in the soil on the top of the cave. The Yin Fire Bats build nests here to cover the grass, both to protect the grass and to maximize the preservation of the Yin poison emitted by the grass. Fellow Daoist, please see!"
After saying that, he puffed up his long sleeves and waved them towards the Yin Fire Bat nest. There was a crackling sound, and the hundreds of holes were broken into a pile of dry and cracked mud and stone, which fell down with a crash.
Before the mud and stone could disperse, Wu Jixiong waved his hand again, and a group of mana roared out, wrapping the mud and stone and flying far away.
When the others looked again, they saw a pit several feet deep on the top of the cave, in which a dark green spiritual grass no more than two feet long grew upside down. This grass had an obscure aura, with thin stems and leaves. From the root to the top of the main stem, there was a dark black ring every four inches or so, a total of five.
At this time, a faint fragrance sprinkled down. After a few people smelled it, their divine consciousness immediately dimmed, as if it was about to be annihilated.
At this dangerous moment, a needle flashed in the Niwan Palace, and the few people only felt a sharp pain in their souls and immediately woke up.
They stood still, with frightened faces, and suddenly retreated a few feet, holding their breath.
However, the fragrance still permeated the surroundings, and the divine consciousness of the few people, which had already been suppressed by more than 90% by the Yin Fiend Qi, was now in a state of almost invisible.
Zhang Yuanjing, Qing Weihong, and Lin Dushan all guessed that the fragrance was the Yin poison released by the Mysterious Yin Grass, and they all looked at Wu Jixiong.
Wu Jixiong nodded and transmitted his voice with mana, "Fellow Daoists, eliminate distracting thoughts and hold on to the Yuan. With the Yang Protecting Pill, as long as you are careful, this poison will not invade. I will collect this grass!"
He took out a ruler-long jade shovel and threw it out. The jade shovel pierced into the soil three feet away from the Mysterious Yin Grass, circled around the Mysterious Yin Grass, and then pried it outwards with force. The Mysterious Yin Grass fell down with a large piece of soil.
Before it landed, Wu Jixiong waved his mana to hold it in the air, and then took out a Zhang-sized piece of leather from the storage bag to wrap the soil around the roots of the grass, and then put it into a separate storage bag.
At this time, the faint fragrance dissipated, and the divine consciousness of the few people immediately returned to its previous state. Although it was still suppressed severely, there was no danger of being annihilated.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist, for obtaining the Mysterious Yin Grass!" Qing Weihong laughed loudly and congratulated Wu Jixiong.
Zhang Yuanjing and Lin Dushan also congratulated him in unison.
This time, it took less than ten days to enter the Mysterious Yin Cave, and they harvested a Mysterious Yin Grass. It was very smooth, which made the few people full of confidence in the next action.
Wu Jixiong waved his hand with a smile, "This grass was obtained by the four of us. Everyone shares the joy, not just congratulating me, Wu."
After the four of them said a few words of laughter, Lin Dushan asked, "Fellow Daoist Wu, I saw five dark black rings on the main stem of the Mysterious Yin Grass. I wonder what it means?"
Wu Jixiong said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Lin has a keen eye! Well, some say it represents the year, but whether a ring is thirty years, fifty years, or one hundred years, there are different opinions, and no one can say for sure. The Xingyue Sect disciple who sold the news to me said that for refining pills, there is no difference between those with less than ten rings. If it exceeds ten rings, it will definitely be able to refine high-grade pills. However, those that can exceed ten rings are extremely rare."
Qing Weihong laughed and said, "Isn't Fellow Daoist Wu an expert in alchemy? How do you judge how many years a ring is?"
Wu Jixiong stretched out a finger and said decisively, "One hundred years! For pills of the level of Enlightenment God Pill, only thousand-year-old spiritual herbs can guarantee the production of high-grade pills."
Zhang Yuanjing asked, "The Mysterious Yin Grass has quality differences. Why didn't the Xingyue Sect mention it? The reward given is also a standard one, which is not linked to the quality of the Mysterious Yin Grass. What is the reason for this?"
Wu Jixiong's face showed a look of contempt, and he said sarcastically, "The Enlightenment God Pill is the only one! No matter what the quality of the Mysterious Yin Grass is, what else can it be used for except trading with his Xingyue Sect! His Xingyue Sect is clearly bullying customers because they are big, what can we loose cultivators do! Not to mention our loose cultivators, even the five sects have to swallow their anger and accept exploitation. Of course, the Xingyue Sect will definitely not be as harsh to the five sects as they are to us loose cultivators."
Lin Dushan responded, "Yes, such a large spiritual grass, even if the pill production rate is very low, it will not be less than five pills, but it only gives one pill to the person who picks the grass, which is really too harsh."
Qing Weihong urged, "Okay, okay, fellow Daoists, don't complain here, let's divide this Mysterious Yin Grass."
The others laughed when they heard this.
According to the agreement, the Mysterious Yin Grass is decided by drawing lots. For cultivators, because of the divine consciousness, the method of drawing lots is also relatively special, always focusing on restricting the divine consciousness, with various methods.
The method they agreed upon was a two-by-two duel. One person held a wooden stick in his hand, and then guessed the length of each other. The one who guessed correctly won, and the winner was determined after two rounds.
Just as the few people were about to start drawing lots, Lin Dushan suddenly suggested, "Fellow Daoists, the reason why the four of us can gather together this time is due to Fellow Daoist Wu's efforts. Just now, we successfully defeated the Yin Fire Bats, which was also thanks to Fellow Daoist Wu's Four Symbols Absolute Machine Formation. I think this Mysterious Yin Grass should be taken by Fellow Daoist Wu first, and there is no need to decide by drawing lots."
Zhang Yuanjing and Qing Weihong looked at Lin Dushan in surprise, and neither of them said anything.
In fact, Zhang Yuanjing also agreed that Wu Jixiong should take the Mysterious Yin Grass first, but the key was that Lin Dushan suddenly made this proposal, which made him suspect that there was some secret collusion between this person and Wu Jixiong.
A trace of doubt flashed in Wu Jixiong's eyes, and he quickly said, "Fellow Daoist Lin, you are wrong. Although the Four Symbols Absolute Machine Formation was created by me, Wu, without the fellow Daoists, it would just be a dead object, how could it kill bats and take grass. Since there is a prior agreement, it should be strictly followed, how can we change our mind halfway!"
Lin Dushan seemed to just mention it casually, and after Wu Jixiong denied it, he did not insist anymore.
Zhang Yuanjing glanced at Qing Weihong, and saw that this person lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, reversing his straightforward style, and his heart couldn't help but become more vigilant.
The process of drawing lots was Zhang Yuanjing vs. Lin Dushan, Wu Jixiong vs. Qing Weihong, and then Lin Dushan and Qing Weihong each won, and made the final duel. In the end, Lin Dushan won Qing Weihong and got the first Mysterious Yin Grass.
Wu Jixiong stretched out his hand and handed the storage bag containing the Mysterious Yin Grass to Lin Dushan, and said expressionlessly, "Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Lin!"
Lin Dushan grinned at him, "I dare not, I dare not! Thanks to Fellow Daoist Wu's Four Symbols Absolute Machine Formation!"
The expressions of the two were a bit strange.
