Chapter 498 - 282: Awakening the Ginseng King
Watching the silhouette of Tianshang Supreme and Venerable Kun Ling speed away, Li Mu felt a heaviness in his heart. He recalled the scene of peering into the River of Space-Time, where the future seemed frozen in place, showing no sign of change.
No!
Suddenly, Li Mu remembered something.
The future is not without change; it can change!
Li Mu suddenly recalled the scene he glimpsed into the future using the Time Fortune Spirit Turtle last time. At that time, he was caught in the Nine Demons Sect’s trap for the Purple Melody Celestial Fire,... Upon learning of this scene in advance, he abandoned the Purple Melody Celestial Fire and notified the Profound Celestial Sword Sect. As a result, the subsequent development trends changed.
This even triggered the Profound Celestial Sword Sect and the Nine Demons Sect to enter the battle for the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm early.
Through these matters, it can be proven that the future is not fixed but full of infinite possibilities.
"The Cangyuan Secret Realm of the Kun Family must be visited!" Li Mu thought to himself.
According to Venerable Tian Shuo and Venerable Kun Ling, the Cangyun Secret Realm not only has abundant high-tier spiritual materials and grows numerous rare Spirit Plants, but it is also rich in high-tier Spiritual Power. This is the foundation that sustains the Eight Great Clans of Central State. Were it not for the need to increase the Kun Family’s share of spiritual materials and to make connections with him, the Artifact Refining Grandmaster, the Kun Family would not easily grant him a spot in the Cangyuan Secret Realm?
If he can find more high-tier Spirit Plant Seeds, he can accelerate his cultivation speed through planting.
"Lord Li, are you planning to leave the Southern Wilderness for Central State?" Xue’Er suddenly asked.
"Yes, that’s the plan. Didn’t you hear earlier? The Nine Demons Sect intends to take over the entire Southern Wilderness, so it’s time to consider a retreat!" Li Mu looked back at Xue’Er and nodded in response.
"Then, Lord... should I go with you?" Xue’Er bit her lip and asked hesitantly, looking at Li Mu.
"I know what you’re thinking. However, right now, you’re too weak, and it’s not time for revenge yet!" Li Mu said deeply, looking at Xue’Er.
"If you go with me to Central State, you might encounter better opportunities, cultivate well, continue to improve your cultivation, and have a chance for revenge in the future." Li Mu added, pausing as he looked at Xue’Er.
Hearing this, Xue’Er lowered her head, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes. She knew what Li Mu said was true; her current strength was indeed too weak. Facing a powerful sect like the Nine Demons Sect, revenge was nothing more than a pipe dream.
"I understand, Lord Li! So, when will we leave?" Xue’Er asked with concern, meeting Li Mu’s gaze.
"Let’s wait for Xiaojin and Xiaowa to return first!" Li Mu sighed, gazing outside Yin Yang Valley.
Through the Spirit Taming Contract Seal’s perception, Xiaojin and Xiaowa’s Divine Souls were unharmed, and even had grown slightly. However, due to the great distance between them, he couldn’t pinpoint their location, let alone give the command for their return.
Li Mu turned into the Artifact Refining Room, then entered the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion.
In the Treasure Mansion Space, Li Mu appeared in the Medicinal Herb Room dedicated to planting rare high-level Spirit Plants, looking at the Cyan Jade Ginseng King growing in Spirit Void Soil there.
[Cyan Jade Ginseng King]
[Tier Six Spirit Root]
[Attributes: Wood Spirit Root, Cyan Yuan Jade Heart, King Ginseng Stone, Thick Earth Grip, Fake Body Earth Escape, Hidden Spirit Concealment,]
[Status: Ten Thousand Years Ginseng, Spiritual Self-Sealing]
[A Cyan Jade Ginseng grown for ten thousand years, developing faint Spiritual Sense, breaking the Postnatal Limit, about to promote to a Tier Seven Innate Spirit Root of the Cyan Jade Ginseng King. Once born, Thunder Tribulation must descend. This Cyan Jade Ginseng King, due to extended sealing, self-seals its Spiritual Sense, disguising as a Tier Four Cyan Jade Ginseng, requiring one hundred thousand strands of Wood Essence Qi, and planting in the Land of Innate Thick Earth to awaken it.]
Through the Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, the detailed information of the Cyan Jade Ginseng King appeared before Li Mu’s eyes.
Li Mu took a deep breath, preparing to awaken the Cyan Jade Ginseng King.
Li Mu pinched the Technique, using his fingers as a brush, drawing complex array patterns in the Void. The patterns leaped in the Void, flickering with a faint light.
In Spirit Void Soil, grew a wilting, grayish, dull Ginseng, with seven or eight drooping leaves, looking in a state of languid vitality.
Li Mu smiled slightly, releasing the Technique, separating it from Spirit Void Soil, moving the Ginseng King out together, choosing a piece of top-grade Spirit Field, and replanting it there.
Next, Li Mu quickly set up a Wood Elemental Spirit Array, Large-Scale Demon Trapping Array, Chaotic Heaven Array around, just in case.
After arranging various arrays, under Li Mu’s control, the Wood Elemental Spirit Array was quickly activated, emitting a strong Wood Qi from within.
Following that, Li Mu took out two Qi Storage Bottles from the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, pouring out Wood Essence Qi and Profound Wood Essence. Under the activation of the Wood Elemental Spirit Array, these precious Spiritual Qi transformed into streams of green airflow converging towards the Cyan Jade Ginseng King.
Wood Essence Qi and Profound Wood Essence condensed into clusters of green mist around the Cyan Jade Ginseng King, continuously nourishing it. Under this powerful Wood Qi nourishment, the Cyan Jade Ginseng King quickly revived, with the plant that was originally like ordinary material beginning to gradually regain Spiritual Energy.
Li Mu watched everything nervously, knowing it was just the beginning. To ensure the Cyan Jade Ginseng King’s successful awakening, continuous ample Spiritual Qi must be provided. Thus, he manipulated the Treasure Mansion Space, gathering Spiritual Power from within.
As time passed, under the action of rich Spiritual Qi, Wood Elemental Spirit Array, Wood Essence Qi, and Profound Wood Essence, the Cyan Jade Ginseng King gradually became as green as an emerald gem.
