As for where the doppelganger has gone, there’s no need to elaborate; it serves as bait to specifically attract the attention of Granny i Hua and others.
It’s also to buy enough ti for Gu Yuan’s true form.
A flash of green light shone in Gu Yuan’s hand, then he took out a Qing Yu Lotus just over a foot long, glowing green like jade, emitting bursts of azure radiance, resembling the most perfect Nine Heavens Jade carved both in heaven and on earth.
A pure aura faintly emanated, exuding a refined and pristine vibe, untouched by dust.
This item... is precisely Gu Yuan’s lifebound magical treasure, crafted with the innate spirit root, Creation Cyan Lotus, as its foundation!!!
Among Gu Yuan’s nurous treasures, this ranks in the top three, and it might even be said to be one of the very best.
Previously, Gu Yuan’s Five Spirit Profound Sky Demon Slaying Sword Array, although powerful and of a Grade that subtly surpassed this Creation Cyan Lotus, was in essence a set of six flying swords combined into a sword array, not truly a single item.
As for the Taiyi Golden Bell... its quality isn’t much inferior, but in terms of style and appearance, it’s obviously sowhat less than the Creation Cyan Lotus.
Especially because...
This Creation Cyan Lotus is alive; it is both Gu Yuan’s lifebound magical treasure and one of his spirit pets, capable of continual tamorphosis and evolution...
At this mont, Gu Yuan took out this item to resolve a hidden threat for his doppelganger!
The next mont, Gu Yuan retrieved the plum tree branch from his storage pouch.
As soon as it was taken out, the branch still emitted a faint spiritual light and fragrance, seemingly responding to Granny i Hua’s call, hoping to escape.
However, once Gu Yuan pressed the Creation Cyan Lotus against it, the plum tree branch stiffened, as if encountering a fearso nesis, unable to move.
At the sa ti, the Creation Cyan Lotus emitted a faint spiritual light, enveloping the plum tree branch completely.
Soon, strands of Yi Wood spirit energy were extracted from the plum tree branch and devoured by the Creation Cyan Lotus.
As it continued to absorb Yi Wood spirit energy, the spiritual light on the Creation Cyan Lotus’s surface beca visibly purer and brighter.
Indeed, although both are spirit roots, Granny i Hua wasn’t an innate spirit root, she was already very close. Having deep Dao practice, Granny i Hua had accumulated Yi Wood spirit energy as vast as an ocean within, which greatly benefited the Creation Cyan Lotus as well.
"Not bad..."
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Gu Yuan’s face.
Evidently, this process greatly benefited the Creation Cyan Lotus, even slightly increasing its Grade, albeit slowly.
Soon enough, the plum tree branch grew smaller and shriveled as if all moisture and essence had been extracted.
In contrast, the Creation Cyan Lotus beca even more radiant, vivid green as if having consud a great tonic, with its petals seeming to bloom larger.
Suddenly,
Bam!
A light pop, and then the branch shattered, an inky-green Yi Wood spirit energy erging, trying to escape like a sentient being.
"What, it’s actually innate Yi Wood spirit energy?!"
Yet, Gu Yuan’s true form was here, naturally instantly recognizing it.
Innate Yi Wood spirit energy, as the na suggests, is,
The crucial part is not the Yi Wood spirit energy, but the innate!
Innate Qi, or innate primordial qi, is that which split from Chaos Qi after the heavens and earth were opened in ancient tis.
However, by the ancient period, due to various reasons, such as innate qi becoming acquired qi, and the depletion by many cultivators and creatures, the innate primordial qi in the world beca much rarer.
Until now, the innate primordial qi in the world has beco increasingly thin.
Innate primordial qi is crucial because when great beings of the Yang Spirit ascend to the Primordial Spirit True Immortal Realm, besides needing sufficient talent and a solid foundation, a necessary quantity of innate primordial qi is also required to forge a primordial spirit foundation; otherwise, the ascension will fail.
Such as innate spirit roots, which also contain abundant innate primordial qi. And their demand for innate primordial qi is very high!
Gu Yuan didn’t expect Granny i Hua to have already begun accumulating innate qi within, obviously preparing to ascend to a Primordial Spirit True Immortal!
But before Gu Yuan could act, the Creation Cyan Lotus in his hand seed to sense sothing, brightening, casting a thin layer of light like a veil, restraining it.
This wisp of innate Yi Wood spirit energy wriggled like a spiritual little snake, darting here and there, yet unable to break free from the light’s constraints.
It was then quickly gathered, and directly hidden and absorbed by the Creation Cyan Lotus!
In no ti, the Creation Cyan Lotus’s glow dimd, but the color of the light beca obviously deeper.
Evidently, after digesting this wisp of innate primordial qi, the Creation Cyan Lotus imnsely benefited.
However, the amount of this innate primordial qi was ultimately too little; otherwise, the Creation Cyan Lotus might have continued to transform.
Yet, even so, Gu Yuan discovered that the growth progress of the Creation Cyan Lotus had risen from 68% to 72%.
Gu Yuan put away the Creation Cyan Lotus, a thoughtful expression on his face.
"These innate Yi Wood spirit energy strands should have been nurtured by Granny i Hua from the vast acquired Yi Wood spirit energy within, and as my master Profound Origin Daoist once told , great beings of the Yang Spirit can transform acquired qi into innate qi, though the speed and efficacy vary, yet no matter what, once the Yang Spirit Dao Fruit is achieved, preparations for ascension to Primordial Spirit True Immortal must comnce."
"Because innate primordial qi is too important... the more accumulated, the easier the future forging of the primordial spirit and the more solid the foundation will be..."
Gu Yuan stroked his chin, murmuring to himself, "Granny i Hua’s true form is a variant spirit root—Ink Plum, rumor has it that this demon attained Dao nine thousand years ago, even older than Elder Chaotic Heaven’s standings. Within her must be a great amount of innate Yi Wood spirit energy accumulated."
"Just this wisp of innate Yi Wood spirit energy brought so much benefit to the Creation Cyan Lotus; if the whole spirit root Ink Plum could be refined... it should be enough to transform the Creation Cyan Lotus into a more extraordinary existence..."
Admittedly, Gu Yuan was indeed tempted.
Though not currently a great being of the Yang Spirit and not in urgent need to accumulate innate primordial qi himself, not being in a hurry doesn’t an Gu Yuan shouldn’t plan ahead.
After all... who would disdain having too many treasures?
If enough innate primordial qi could be acquired, not only could the quality of the Creation Cyan Lotus be elevated, but Gu Yuan himself could also use the innate primordial qi to refine his body, and his own Golden Core and divine soul, making his foundation more robust and stable.
By then, perhaps Gu Yuan’s foundation might be unprecedentedly strong.
Overall, the benefits are nurous...
Moreover, Granny i Hua isn’t anything good; as a great demon, her malicious nature is hard to change, and just now she tried to plot against Gu Yuan, so Gu Yuan counterplotting isn’t out of order.
