Chapter 115: Spiritual Pill Creation
【Spiritual Field: |v4 (Non-upgradable)】
【Spiritual Effect 1: Crop growth cycle reduced by 60%; upon harvest, there is a 40% chance to obtain double the crops, and a 10% chance to obtain triple the crops.】
【Spiritual Effect 2 (Spiritual Pill Creation): Every 10 years, one Pill Origin Fruit can be harvested.】
【Upgrade Requirents: 500 Mid-grade Spirit Stones, 1 Tier-3 Demon Core, 10 jin of Danyang Soil, 20 jin of Xuanyin Soil, 3 corpses of Tier-2 Earth-boring Corrupt Worms. (Not achieved)】
Still, there were two spiritual effects.
Estimating that to obtain three spiritual effects, the building would need to be at least level 5.
Spiritual Effect 1 was a standard upgrade, nothing much to say about it.
The key point was this Spiritual Effect 2: Spiritual Pill Creation!
The harvest ti had also been extended; currently, it was once a year, but in the future, it would beco once every ten years. Just from this point alone, one could deduce the value of the Pill Origin Fruit.
Pill Origin... could it be related to Core Formation?
Ji Yuan boldly speculated in his heart.
It seed he needed to find an opportunity to investigate and see what exactly this Pill Origin Fruit was.
Having harvested two stalks of Millennium Illusory Spirit Grass, Ji Yuan was in a great mood.
Each stalk was worth 150 Spirit Stones, and it was the kind that had buyers but no sellers—while he had two stalks, perhaps even if he priced them at 180 per stalk, soone would still want them?
Thinking this way, the initial investnt was imdiately recouped.
But that was just a thought; selling them was impossible.
This item, at the very least, should only be considered for sale after he established his Foundation.
Subsequently, Ji Yuan cultivated at ho for another two days until the morning of the third day when Du Wanyi arrived.
It was the day to et at the Water Dragon Sect's assembly.
"Shanshui Island."
Ji Yuan recalled the location, "Let's go."
After speaking, he once again released the Chixiao Boat; two fiery red streams of light soared into the sky, and the two figures imdiately disappeared.
Having had previous encounters at the Hatchling Dragon Island Mutual Aid Association, Ji Yuan didn't hold much expectation; at most, he would just go to listen in and see if there was any valuable information.
As for forming sa-year companions, of the four he had previously ford, only two and a half remained.
Given Yao Jingfeng's current situation, he could at most be considered half—although Du Wanyi said he could return, whether he actually could was still uncertain.
Moreover, since he had already joined a sect, forming sa-year companions didn't hold much significance anymore.
At most, it was about seeing if there were any like-minded individuals to befriend.
"Fourth Brother, you've been wandering around the Water Dragon Sect these past few days, haven't you?"
"Ahem, I'm familiarizing myself with the Water Dragon Sect's environnt."
Du Wanyi rolled her eyes and continued, "By the way, I found a small island that's quite beautiful, covered with flowers. When I went there, I heard a senior sister say that the island has flowers blooming all year round. Let's go take a look when we have ti."
"Looking at flowers?"
Ji Yuan said with a puzzled expression, "Shouldn't we be cultivating if we have the ti?"
Du Wanyi: "..."
Shanshui Island had mountains and water, as well as a magnificent waterfall.
As for how the waterfall on the island ca to be, Ji Yuan had glanced at it when he passed by a couple of days ago—not knowing which talented senior had created a water-pumping formation, artificially crafting this beautiful scene.
The eting place for the assembly was a viewing pavilion not far from the waterfall.
By the ti Ji Yuan and Du Wanyi arrived, several figures were already seated there.
Ji Yuan glanced around; Fang Jie and a few others had co, and the only other person he recognized was Han Feiyu, who was also from Zengtou Market.
"Here he cos, this year's leader has arrived."
A short old man whom Ji Yuan didn't recognize shouted upon seeing him.
The others also responded similarly, each one very enthusiastic.
Ji Yuan quickly cupped his hands toward them, "I don't deserve such praise; it was rely by chance."
"Brother Ji, it wasn't by chance. We've all heard about your deeds."
"Indeed, the Earth-Splitting Demon Wolf couldn't withstand a few rounds. Brother Ji's strength is likely enough to dominate even at the peak of Qi Refining."
Everyone engaged in mutual flattery. Ji Yuan was unbothered by such scenes and joined in the exchange of complints.
Although he didn't know who the other party was or their thods, he was adept at praising the elderly for their deanor and those with insufficient cultivation for their potential.
After a round of pleasantries, Ji Yuan heard a gentle voice from behind.
"Co, Brother Ji, sit here."
Turning around, Ji Yuan saw a handso middle-aged man.
"Greetings, Senior Han," Ji Yuan said with a smile, cupping his hands.
"We're all fellow disciples; no need for such formality. If you don't mind, just call Brother Han," Han Feiyu replied warmly.
True to his reputation, Han Feiyu was indeed gentle. Ji Yuan smiled and addressed him as "Brother Han."
At this mont, Du Wanyi, who had been conversing with a beautiful woman, turned around and introduced her to Ji Yuan.
"Fourth Brother, this is Senior Sister Dong Qian."
"Greetings, Senior Sister Dong," Ji Yuan said with a smile, bowing to her.
Dong Qian was a well-known figure in Zengtou Market.
Ji Yuan had only caught a glimpse of her three years ago when she joined the Water Dragon Sect.
Today was essentially their first eting.
At first glance, Ji Yuan felt that she was a mature and alluring woman.
It wasn't that Ji Yuan had impure thoughts; rather, Dong Qian's radiant appearance and curvaceous figure spoke volus.
Especially since Dong Qian was dressed modestly in a slightly loose purple patterned robe, which covered her chest well, revealing only a hint of her collarbone and fair neck.
Even so, her ample bosom prominently filled out her robe.
She was indeed a married woman, Ji Yuan thought to himself.
Nonetheless, just this one eting left a lasting impression on him.
"There probably aren't many in the Water Dragon Sect more handso than Junior Brother Ji," Dong Qian said with a smile.
"Senior Sister Dong is equally so," Ji Yuan replied, engaging in mutual flattery.
"Alright, the rest probably won't co. In that case, let's all share any recent news," said a thin old man in a standard Water Dragon Sect robe.
As soon as he spoke, the previously noisy pavilion fell silent.
Ji Yuan had already noticed this man. While everyone else sat together, this old man occupied a large area by himself, with no one daring to sit near him.
It seed he was the leader of this mutual aid association—Liu Cangke.
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Feiyu, sitting beside Ji Yuan, spoke up.
"The battle rits rewards from Liancheng Mountain have been announced. The highest reward is three Foundation Establishnt Pills!"
"What?!"
"The sect actually offered Foundation Establishnt Pills as rewards?"
"Damn, those who went there really hit the jackpot."
The ntion of Foundation Establishnt Pills imdiately sparked discussions among those present.
Even Ji Yuan was slightly surprised.
He had thought it would be difficult to co across Foundation Establishnt Pills, but unexpectedly, shortly after joining the Water Dragon Sect, he encountered news about them.
"Yes, Han Feiyu is correct," Liu Cangke nodded, confirming the authenticity of the news.
"The sect offering Foundation Establishnt Pills as rewards will surely attract many people."
"Indeed, I'm quite tempted myself," said a cultivator at the peak of Qi Refining.
Han Feiyu turned to Ji Yuan and said, "Brother Ji, now that you have the strength of a peak Qi Refining cultivator, are you interested in these Foundation Establishnt Pills?"
"I'm rely at the late stage of Qi Refining; I wouldn't dare to think about Foundation Establishnt Pills."
Ji Yuan responded modestly with a smile.
"That's not quite right," Han Feiyu gently shook his head, his tone becoming more earnest. "Everyone present here possesses pseudo-spiritual roots. Brother Ji, you must have heard about the difficulties pseudo-spiritual roots face in establishing a foundation. Therefore, it's best to plan early for obtaining a Foundation Establishnt Pill."
Dong Qian, standing nearby, also chid in to persuade him, "Brother Han speaks the truth."
"Brother Ji, with your formidable strength, why don't the two of us venture to Liancheng Mountain together?"
Seeing Ji Yuan's hesitation, Du Wanyi, who was holding onto Dong Qian's arm, interjected, "Brother Han, please don't pressure my fourth brother. He doesn't enjoy combat; he prefers to cultivate peacefully at ho."
"I see," Han Feiyu chuckled.
"Very well, I won't insist. I'll discuss it with soone else."
"Apologies for declining your kind offer, Brother Han," Ji Yuan said with a regretful smile.
He had even used the Immortal Ascension Order and made Li Changhe his scapegoat to avoid going to the frontlines.
There was no way he would voluntarily head there now.
However, Ji Yuan understood Han Feiyu and the others' intentions.
They lacked access to Millennium Illusory Spirit Grass and, consequently, had no ans to obtain Foundation Establishnt Pills. Now that there was a thod to acquire them, they naturally wouldn't let the opportunity slip by.
Not only would they go to the frontlines at Liancheng Mountain, but if any secret realms appeared in the future, they would risk their lives to explore them.
Risking their lives for that sliver of hope to establish a foundation.
Witnessing the discussions among fellow disciples in the pavilion about heading to the frontlines, Ji Yuan couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.
After failing to recruit Ji Yuan, Han Feiyu arranged to go with Dong Qian.
As for Du Wanyi, perhaps due to spending ti with Ji Yuan and becoming more cautious, or maybe she genuinely didn't want to go, she declined Dong Qian's invitation.
She ntioned that she had just arrived and needed to familiarize herself with the Water Dragon Sect first, planning to undertake a few simple tasks before considering anything else.
While everyone was engaged in discussions, Ji Yuan remained silent, quietly listening.
He heard a na ntioned repeatedly.
Han Feiyu was still conversing with a few others, listening to a senior brother who had been to the frontlines describe the situation at Liancheng Mountain.
Ji Yuan took the opportunity to inquire with Dong Qian, "Senior Sister Dong, who exactly is Feng Yichen?"
Dong Qian turned around with a smile, her voice soft and alluring, "He's a legend among us with pseudo-spiritual roots, reputed to be the most promising candidate for foundation establishnt in the Water Dragon Sect."
"Oh?"
"That's quite a reputation," Ji Yuan remarked in surprise.
"Yes, he once killed a Foundation Establishnt cultivator in direct combat," Dong Qian replied calmly.
"Huh?"
Ji Yuan looked at her incredulously, "A Qi Refining cultivator killed soone at the Foundation Establishnt stage?"
"Exactly," Dong Qian spread her hands, "That's why he's considered the most promising pseudo-spiritual root cultivator in our Water Dragon Sect."
Du Wanyi, hearing about this person for the first ti, comnted, "If he can kill a Foundation Establishnt cultivator while still in Qi Refining, then whether he establishes a foundation or not doesn't make much difference."
"That's not quite accurate," Dong Qian said with a helpless smile.
Ji Yuan gently tapped his knee with his fingers, silently noting this individual.
A Qi Refining cultivator killing soone at the Foundation Establishnt stage—this person was extraordinary.
"It seems that one of the three Foundation Establishnt Pills at the frontlines is destined for Feng Yichen," Dong Qian mused aloud.
"Most likely. We'll have to compete for the remaining two, and without the advantage of being early, it will be challenging. If we go now, it might truly be a matter of risking our lives."
After finishing his conversation, Han Feiyu returned to sit beside Ji Yuan.
"It's alright; we can only do our best. As long as the green hills remain, there's no fear of running out of firewood. If we don't obtain a Foundation Establishnt Pill this ti, we'll try again next ti," Dong Qian said softly.
"That's true," Han Feiyu agreed.
As they were speaking, a sudden voice rang out, causing everyone present to fall silent.
"I have so insider information about the Jiuyou Cave Heaven. I wonder if everyone is interested."
