Chapter 618: Chapter 397 Spiritual Root Changes_2
She had heard from Hong He that she had taken nine and a half steps. This was already the best result since the establishnt of the Divine Wood Sect.
She always considered herself to have a Heavenly Spiritual Root, her talent being above all others. If the Divine Tree Secret Realm truly depended on one’s innate abilities, she believed she could surpass Hong He and even Chen Mobai. She might even beco the first newly established Foundation Establishnt disciple to co into contact with the body of the Talent Tree itself.
After seeing off Yin Qingi, Chen Mobai was about to put the Spirit-Testing Instrunt from his palm back into its place when he suddenly thought that he hadn’t tested himself for quite so ti. Thus, he injected a stream of Spiritual Power into it.
[Spiritual Root: Gold 23, Wood 49, Water 20, Fire 72, Earth 14]
Huh!
Chen Mobai thought the Spirit-Testing Instrunt hadn’t been cleared properly. He injected another stream of Spiritual Power, but the Spiritual Root values it showed were exactly the sa as before, causing his eyes to widen in disbelief.
He had reached a Cultivation Level where he could easily rember everything at a glance.
Chen Mobai rembered that when he had just cultivated the Five Yang Body at the beginning of the year, his Spiritual Root Value was [Gold 23, Wood 45, Water 16, Fire 72, Earth 10].
How could it be that after less than half a year, his Spiritual Root Value had increased?
Moreover, what had increased were the Wood, Water, and Earth attributes, each by exactly 4 points.
Had he consud a rare treasure that could enhance one’s Spiritual Roots?
A thought flashed through Chen Mobai’s mind and he realized sothing.
The Immortal Peach Fruit!
That was the only thing he had consud recently.
He hadn’t expected that this Rank-3 Spirit Fruit would actually enhance his Spiritual Root Value.
He had truly refined four Immortal Peach Fruits! The Wood, Earth, and Water attributes of his Spiritual Roots had increased by 4 points, which was exactly right!
“Another loss!”
Chen Mobai sighed with regret. Any change in his Spiritual Root Value would lead to an update in his talent tree’s technique law. If he had known beforehand that consuming the Immortal Peach Fruit could enhance his Spiritual Roots, for each fruit he consud, he would have gone to the Talent Tree straightaway.
But there was no workaround for this, given that at that ti he was just focused on raising his cultivation level and wasn’t paying attention to these details.
The discovery wasn’t too late, at least he could still pluck sothing from the Talent Tree.
And now that he knew that the Immortal Peach Fruit could enhance Spiritual Roots, if he waited until the mother tree on Black Cloud Mountain matured again, he could try to get so more fruits to taste and see if there was an upper limit to the enhancent of Spiritual Roots.
In the Divine Tree Secret Realm, Chen Mobai looked at the Devouring Heaven Serpent happily grazing. He threw so Spirit Stones to it and leisurely walked towards the Talent Tree.
This ti, he obtained a technique law called the “Kindwood Mantra”.
This was the thod of Cultivating Spiritual Plants.
It could turn any mature Spirit Plant into a seed. For instance, if Chen Mobai didn’t consu the Immortal Peach Fruit, he could use the “Kindwood Mantra” to turn it into a seed.
As long as there was sufficient earth qi energy, a seed transford through the Kindwood Mantra was guaranteed to sprout and survive.
The purpose of this Cultivation Technique was to enable the large-scale migration of precious Spirit Plants.
However, this “Kindwood Mantra” required Cultivation to be able to work on Spirit dicines and Plants of the corresponding Grade.
For instance, right now Chen Mobai could only use the “Kindwood Mantra” to turn Rank-1 Spiritual dicines and Plants into seeds. If he could cultivate it to Rank-3, then he could turn the Immortal Peach mother tree on Black Cloud Mountain into a seed and move it here, ensuring it survives.
“The techniques from this Longevity Sect are rather interesting.”
Chen Mobai felt that both the Jia Wood Jue and the Kindwood Mantra were more precious than the Divine Wood Sect’s Longevity Scripture and Red Fla Sword Jue. Muttering to himself, he took out the treasured Large Tung Flower Root Stem from his storage bag.
Chen Mobai had used a grafting thod to combine it with a Rank-3 tea branch from the Bai family. Whether it could be cultivated into a new type of tea through the thod described by Wenren Xuewei was up to fate.
He brought this stem in front of the Talent Tree.
This particular Talent Tree was covered with signs of attacks. Chen Mobai carefully chose a sword wound that he himself had inflicted and inserted the grafted tea branch and root stem into it.
According to Wenren Xuewei’s thesis, a powerful Spirit Tree would nurture the tea branch into a living plant and then cultivate a new tea variety.
However, while she could use the Big Tree for repeated trials and errors, Chen Mobai could only attempt that thod desperately.
He didn’t hold high hopes for the outco anyway.
After all, if he ran out of tea leaves, he could always buy more from the Bai family.
Before leaving the Divine Tree Secret Realm, Chen Mobai turned around, hoping to find a Qingyang Spirit Tree.
However, his luck was evidently not as good as Mu Yuan’s. Even after exploring this Secret Realm for several years, he couldn’t find a single one.
Although he could synthesis Qingyang Spirit Wood artificially using the Jia Wood Jue technique, Chen Mobai felt that it was ti to start planning his quest for this spiritual wood resource within the Secret Realm.
“Master, are you making puppets?”
In the courtyard of Divine Wood City, Chen Mobai combined the parts he had made into a eight-legged spider puppet – sothing Luo Yixuan had never seen before.
“Yes, I hope it will be useful. I need to find so things.”
Searching alone in the vast Divine Tree Secret Realm would be ti-consuming, so Chen Mobai decided to create a puppet capable of automatically seeking Qingyang Spirit Trees.
His years under Che Yucheng’s tutelage were not in vain, hence this palm-sized spider puppet was his replicated creation.
It was also a type of combat puppet used by the Immortal Gate; Chen Mobai made so modifications. The original version could autonomously record patrolling targets and scan every inch within a radius of a hundred miles, transmitting the data in real-ti to a controlling host.
But Chen Mobai couldn’t afford such a host and core chip, so he set a simple self-destruct program.
The puppet would be highly sensitive to the scent of Green-sun Fire, and would instantaneously disintegrate upon contact with it.
Chen Mobai, using rank-1 Heavenly Calculation Bead in place of the host, controlled ten small spider puppets, and began the slow search for Qingyang Spirit Trees within the Divine Tree Secret Realm.
He just needed to co to the Secret Realm when he had spare ti, take out the Heavenly Calculation Bead stored nearby the Devouring Heaven Serpent, and check the data within to see if any progress was made.
“Master, you are truly versatile, you even understand puppet-making.”
Luo Yixuan expressed her heartfelt admiration. She had been helping at the side for several days, but most of the parts she fashioned had errors, with only one or two being used by Chen Mobai.
“Yu Lian is coming over tonight, prepare so good food and drinks.”
Chen Mobai simply responded with a slight smile to his disciple’s praise. After collecting the replaced parts of the spider puppet, he instructed Luo Yixuan on a task.
Although Yu Lian was also a newly promoted Foundation Establishnt cultivator, his awkward position within the sect made him close to invisible.
But Chu Zuoshu has indeed taken Chen Mobai’s advice. Yu Lian was even invited back for ng Hong’s Core Formation opportunity, clearly showing impartiality and intending to highlight the fairness and justice of the sect.
“What’s the situation at Lonely Spirit Ridge?”
After Yu Lian reached Foundation Establishnt, he was sent by Chu Zuoshu to guard the Divine Wood Sect’s most precious Void Mysterious Stone Mine. He had visited that place with Shan Hongyi once before.
Moreover, pretty much everyone with vested interests knew about this Void Mysterious Stone Mine after its battle with Shake Mountain peak.
So when Chen Mobai asked, Yu Lian didn’t hold anything back and shared so of his experiences over the past year.
“Sister i from the Spirit Vein Departnt ca back with this ti. She has applied for a leave next year, so the sect will probably need to assign another Foundation Establishnt cultivator to go there.”
i Jingjun was a cultivator who went to Lonely Spirit Ridge to seek opportunity with Yan Jinye. However, in order to keep the matters a secret and due to so suspicion, she was sent to mine in the sa place while being kept under surveillance by Grand Elder Zhou.
But now, as the matter of the Void Mysterious Stone Mine is no longer a secret and i Jingjun didn’t seem to have any problems under the departnt director’s watch within a year, the sect thus agreed to her return request.
“By the way, just before I returned to the sect, I received this note. You wouldn’t believe who gave it to .”
Suddenly, Yu Lian handed Chen Mobai a bright yellow talisman paper.
“Who?”
“Lady Guo!”
Upon hearing this na, Chen Mobai’s hand that was holding the talisman paper paused slightly.
“I saw with my own eyes, she died by the hand of Daoist Feiming.”
“She claid herself as ‘Lady Guo’!”
Yu Lian had been at the Qi Cultivation stage then, but had also heard about Lady Guo’s affairs.
“What else did she say?”
Chen Mobai looked at the talisman paper in his hand, which was adorned with a five-colored lotus lamp, and his face turned strange.
“She told to give this to you and said she wants to make a deal with you.”
