Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family Chapter 467 - 396 Fire Spirit Lotus Lake

"My lord, I swear, for so many years, I have never had contact with those people with the surna Gu!"

"Really?"

"Truly! Not to ntion those with the surna Gu, I have not dared let any human into my territory. Except for your arrival, in thirteen thousand years I haven’t t any other person, only interacting with so nearby wild beasts." Despite having shrunk its body ten thousand tis, the earth core lting serpent remained a giant creature. When lying down, it stood over five ters tall, yet it now bowed its head humbly, allowing Chen Zhixing and Chen Zhaosheng to stand atop its head, showing a fawning attitude!

Chen Zhixing squinted his eyes: "Then how co you speak the language of the East Profound so fluently?"

"Well, hehehe, I wouldn’t dare deceive you, my lord. I do have a knack for languages. Although over ten thousand years have passed, I once made a serious effort to learn. It’s just that I haven’t used it for many years, which is why I seem a bit rusty."

Talent? Really?

Chen Zhaosheng, who was healing his own injuries atop its head, rolled his eyes, truly not expecting these wild beasts to have beco so sycophantic. After all, even if a peak-level wild beast had no vocal organs, after over ten thousand years, they could find other ways to speak.

As for seeming rusty, that part was true.

After all, there weren’t many wild beasts living underground, with only seven or eight existing in a vast area, so of which couldn’t even communicate.

Inhabiting such an environnt, it’s only natural that the intelligence of wild beasts like the earth core profound serpent isn’t fully developed.

"Two lords, ahead is the Lotus Fire Lake where I reside. Back in the day, I made an agreent with a lord of the Ancient Race, where every hundred years they would co to Lotus Fire Lake to take a hundred Fire Lotus Seeds, granting so interesting trinkets in return. Naturally, I was willing to make this trade. Unfortunately, the people of the Ancient Race, for reasons unknown, haven’t returned in over ten thousand years, which has led to an overabundance of Fire Lotuses in this lake...."

As it spoke, the profound serpent carried the two of them along the lava river into a relatively spacious lava lake.

The scene before their eyes suddenly opened up.

Here was a lava-filled cavern about fifty li in circumference, brightly illuminated by the glow of the flas, allowing them to clearly see the vast stretch of crimson Fire Spirit Lotuses on the lava lake.

Truly an expanse, densely packed, nearly filling the entire lava lake!

And most were growing robustly, each blooming crimson lotus platform spanning eight or nine zhang across, like small platforms growing on the lava lake. In so deeper areas, there were even a dozen or so large hundred-zhang lotus pods, at a glance one knew these were definitely heavenly materials and earthly treasures!!!

While Chen Zhixing marveled at finding such treasures untouched by man in the depths of the earth, he felt a tug on his sleeve.

Imdiately following, a voice tinged with greed and longing whispered in his ear.

"These are Fire Spirit Lotus Seedpods, they take three hundred years to form, three hundred years to fall, three hundred years to mature. Their seeds are a primary ingredient for the Green Fall Pill, which can enhance the cultivation of Peak Realm level and even Longevity Masters!"

Chen Zhaosheng: "???"

"Don’t just stand there, later you trap this profound serpent, and I’ll gather those matured Fire Spirit Lotus Seeds. With these, whether it’s for you or , as long as we bring the seeds to the Three Great Sacred Lands, we can trade them for enough Green Fall Pills for us to consu for ten years!"

Seeing these lotus pods made Chen Zhaosheng almost go mad with envy!

A windfall from the heavens!

So many Fire Spirit Lotuses, not only had he never seen such a sight in his life, even in the ti when Wuduolong beca a Taoist Monarch of Longevity, he only saw so many heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the Imperial Court’s storeroom!

So many Fire Spirit Lotuses, even if they were used to exchange with the Three Great Sacred Lands at a major loss, the Green Fall Pills obtained would allow the Ziwei Chen Family to produce four or five Peak of Peak Realm experts within twenty years!

Not to ntion those two blooming Fire Spirit Lotus Seedpods with hundred-zhang flowers deep in the lava lake, who knows how many years they’ve lived, those seeds are treasures that even Longevity Masters would covet!!!

Never seen, Chen Zhaosheng truly never encountered such a windfall!

To think, after wandering the depths of the earth, such good fortune would co their way, it was as if the heavens themselves were feeding them!

At this mont, all Chen Zhaosheng wanted to do was gather those Fire Spirit Lotus Seeds, then return ho and cultivate in seclusion for decades, refusing to erge until he hit the Peak of Peak!

Then he heard Chen Zhixing suddenly speak.

"Do you have any use for these lotuses? I want to collect so seeds."

You’re actually asking it?!!

We should just snatch them!

These are heavenly materials and earthly treasures! The reason this serpent has grown so large! It definitely hasn’t eaten few of these seeds! There’s no way it would willingly give them to you!!!

"I don’t mind at all, hehehe, just, lord, seeing as I’ve been guarding this lotus pool all these years, without rit, but with toil, could you perhaps bring so things from the outside next ti, my lords? If you could bring a few live companions who can converse with , that would be just splendid."

"Hmm, that can be arranged. These Fire Spirit Lotus Seeds are valuable to us, so your benefits won’t be neglected." After promising the earth core profound serpent, Chen Zhixing turned to Chen Zhaosheng and winked.

Chen Zhaosheng: "..."

This works too??!!

"Hehehe, my lords, how many would you like? Would you prefer to take you to pick them personally, or should I collect them for you? Let tell you, don’t be fooled by these dense little lotus pods out here, they’ve only been growing for tens of thousands of years; eating them isn’t much. The real treasures are those two big ones inside. The seeds from the large lotus pods are extrely crisp, though they take quite a while to mature, three thousand years to be exact. It’s quite unfortunate, back when those people from the Imperial Court ca, the seeds in these two pods hadn’t matured, so they only took so of the smaller ones back, and agreed that when the large seeds matured, they’d bring a few Snake Princesses from the outside to keep company warm in bed....
