Top-tier Unruly Master Chapter 1696 - 1733: Liuli Grass

After the Elder finished speaking, other elders recalled this matter and couldn't help but debate amongst themselves.

"I heard of it before as well. I heard there was a new Great Ocean Sect, initially I didn't pay much attention, but the most shocking rumor to was that this new Great Ocean Sect supposedly rewards its disciples with Supre Quality dicine Pills. I couldn't believe it at first; you must know that even the sect leader would hardly receive such pills."

"Indeed, I heard about this too. However, this new Great Ocean Sect is quite mysterious, and my people don't know its location either. I didn't believe the Supre Quality dicine Pill story at all, but I didn't expect this new Great Ocean Sect actually exists and is the sect of Lake Master. So, the rumors are indeed true!"

"Big Brother is a Grade Nine Alchemist, and his success rate in refining Supre Quality dicine Pills is so high. How could the rumors about the new Great Ocean Sect be false!"

"Being a disciple of such a sect is indeed enviable; I almost want to give it a try myself..."

"Haha, don't tease. Are you thinking of becoming an outer sect disciple?"

"Haha, just kidding. But seriously, if my qualifications allowed to beco an outer sect disciple of the Great Ocean Sect and receive Supre Quality dicine Pills, it wouldn't be impossible to consider, provided Lake Master consents."

"You really dare to dream..."

"..."

The crowd debated fervently, and above them, Long Ren heard the discussions. He also heard the rumors about the Great Ocean Sect, but he knew they weren't just rumors, they were true. Because he knew it was Big Brother Ding Fan's sect, and given Ding Fan's success rate in refining Supre Quality dicine Pills, offering such benefits to sect disciples was entirely possible.

Yet, such benefits were indeed captivating, as for most cultivators, Supre Quality dicine Pills are utterly unattainable. A regular disciple might never receive a Supre Quality dicine Pill throughout their life. These pills are not only extrely rare, but even the rare ones on the market would fetch sky-high prices.

Ordinary disciples can't afford them; for most cultivators, even working their entire lives wouldn't accumulate enough Spirit Stones for a Supre Quality dicine Pill. Therefore, the sect's provision of such benefits to its disciples is bound to attract many cultivators, without a doubt.

Ding Fan wasn't exactly sure how far the Great Ocean Sect had developed currently, but from the discussions among elders and sect leaders from the Thirty-Six Caverns, he knew the situation of the Great Ocean Sect seed quite promising.

Moreover, the Thirty-Six Caverns hadn't yet discovered the sect's location, which was undoubtedly positive for the Great Ocean Sect. Ding Fan knew that even if the sect was doing well now, it couldn't compete with the Wild Wolf Gang. Thus, having its position remain undisclosed was not a bad thing for the sect.

Ding Fan understood that for the Great Ocean Sect to grow strong enough to counter the Wild Wolf Gang, it would take ti. However, Ding Fan believed with the dicine pills he provided and the ample Spirit Stone resources, the Great Ocean Sect's developnt wouldn't take too long.

From the debates among the Thirty-Six Caverns elders and sect leaders, Ding Fan realized the Great Ocean Sect seed to be developing well, thanks to Wang Hu's good managent during this ti, which pleased him.

Next, Long Ren summoned Guo Lin, Ah Du, and Leng Jian forward, then with a sowhat serious expression, he addressed them:

"Your performance in the Xuantian Secret Realm was comndable; we're proud. But now I must ask, did you find any Spiritual Material called Liuli Grass in the Xuantian Secret Realm?"

The crowd noticed Lake Master's serious expression and heard his question, thus fell completely silent, understanding how much Lake Master valued this question. Whenever disciples returned from the Xuantian Secret Realm, Lake Master Long Ren almost invariably asked this question.

Ding Fan heard Long Ren's question and was sowhat curious. He knew the Liuli Grass Long Ren referred to, a rather elusive Spiritual Material, possibly extinct in the Cultivation World. Although the Liuli Grass was extrely rare in the Cultivation World, it didn't benefit cultivators much.

Ding Fan knew Liuli Grass was used primarily to refine special poisons, and wondered if Long Ren intended to poison soone. But he quickly dismissed the idea, knowing that although Liuli Grass was a Refining Material for poison, the poison refined with it wasn't potent enough to be lethal to cultivators; it rely caused True Qi leakage and decreased cultivation.

Hence, even poison experts scarcely used it, for a non-lethal poison holds little value.

That led Ding Fan to wonder, what was Long Ren's purpose in seeking this Spiritual Material?

Guo Lin, Ah Du, and Leng Jian were taken aback by Long Ren's inquiry, then Guo Lin and Ah Du answered in turn:

"Reporting to Lake Master, I didn't find this Spiritual Material in the Xuantian Secret Realm."

" neither, couldn't find it."

Long Ren heard the two people's conversation, and there was a hint of disappointnt in his expression as he nodded. He knew that once these two disciples entered the Xuantian Secret Realm, they would soon et with his elder brother, Ding Fan. If they had seen this Spiritual Material, they would have all seen it together. Now that both of them answered that they hadn't, it was clear that the three of them truly hadn't encountered this Spiritual Material.

Involuntarily, Long Ren felt a bit more hopeful. He had been searching for this type of Spiritual Material for nearly ten years, but had yet to find it. However, he would never give up searching. Long Ren's heart was resolute — even if he were to die in the future, he would entrust soone to continue the search.

Yet Long Ren knew that if this were indeed the case, there would be no hope for him to see Shan Shan recover while he was still alive...

Though Long Ren felt slightly disappointed, he did not completely lose hope. He then looked towards Leng Jian, knowing that this disciple had encountered the Ice Castle in the Xuantian Secret Realm and discovered an ancient master's dicine Pill Room within it. Therefore, the hope of this person knowing about the Liuli Grass was the greatest.

Leng Jian noticed the heated gaze of Lake Master Long Ren upon him and hesitated for a mont in his heart. He was well aware of the role of the Liuli Grass, and he knew exactly why the Lake Master was searching for it, because before he entered the Xuantian Secret Realm,

his master, who was also the sect leader of their Sect, had emphasized this to him. He could still rember his master's words.

...

"Leng Jian, if you have the opportunity to enter the Xuantian Secret Realm this ti, you must pay attention to a type of Spiritual Material. It's called Liuli Grass. It's a miraculous Spiritual Material for expelling True Qi, and it's almost nonexistent in the Cultivation World. You must find a way to locate it, but of course, coming back alive is the prerequisite."

Leng Jian's master emphatically reminded him in a secluded room.

At the ti, Leng Jian naturally did not understand what this was all about, why he needed to search for this kind of Spiritual Material, and why its effects were so special. He imdiately asked the question in his heart:

"Master, why do we need to find this kind of Spiritual Material?"

"It's for a woman, the woman whom the Lake Master loves most in his life. She has contracted a mysterious illness that only the Liuli Grass can cure. So, if you obtain this Spiritual Material in the Xuantian Secret Realm, you'll have the leverage to negotiate with the Lake Master. You must know that our Sect is already very lacking in cultivation resources. Without them, our Sect will eventually disappear from the Cultivation World..."

"Don't worry, Master. I will not let our Sect disappear!" Leng Jian looked at his master with determination, firmly agreeing, for his master had worked tirelessly for the Sect all his life.

...

At this mont, as Leng Jian recalled his master's words, he had already made up his mind. He looked at the Lake Master Long Ren, who gazed at him with a puzzled expression, and then respectfully said:

"Reporting to the Lake Master, the disciple indeed saw this type of Spiritual Material..."

"Really?"

Upon hearing that the other had seen the Liuli Grass, Long Ren couldn't help but feel extrely excited, to the point of interrupting the other and repeatedly confirming the statent.

"Reporting to the Lake Master, it's true. But obtaining this Spiritual Material cost significant efforts and efforts. If the Lake Master needs it, just giving it to you causes great heartache. It makes very troubled."

Long Ren, having heard the other's words, naturally understood their aning — essentially asking for a benefit. Long Ren had been searching for this Liuli Grass for countless years, even enough to span a decade. Now that it was so difficult to have a disciple who had seen this Liuli Grass, how could he not be thrilled? Let alone asking for benefits, he would agree to any conditions proposed.

Unable to contain himself, Long Ren said with so excitent:

"Rest assured, I will agree to any conditions you propose, as long as you hand over the Liuli Grass to ."

Leng Jian, seeing the Lake Master Long Ren's almost losing composure, already knew that he could propose good conditions. However, his master had already instructed him regarding this matter, so he didn't need to think too industriously. Instead, he directly said:

"Lake Master, our Sect has been developing rather slowly in recent years. If you could give us so cultivation resources, I believe everyone in our Sect would be imnsely grateful to the Lake Master."

"Okay, no problem. I will issue the command now. Your Sect's resources will be distributed as usual this year, along with an additional reward of three years of cultivation resources."

With brief consideration, Long Ren solemnly answered directly.

He understood that he must acquire the Liuli Grass, and rewarding the other sect wasn't unreasonable either. After all, during his ti in the Xuantian Secret Realm, the disciple had perford admirably, previously offering so dicine resources willingly to the Thirty-Six Caves. As Lake Master, rewarding the sect of a disciple who displayed such behavior was entirely reasonable.
