274 Five Spirits Fruit Tree
274 Five Spirit Fruit Tree
Ye Qin was considering whether to explore the deepest part of Lujia Castle. At this time, a dim yellow shadow appeared quietly several feet away from him.
"Brother Qin, have you found a spiritual object there?" Huang Shadow asked in a low voice.
"The two forbidden areas I checked before were not too strict. One was an ore warehouse, which stored a lot of ore. The other was an old storage room, which stored some abandoned spiritual weapons. No special spiritual objects were found except. Brother Shi, what's the situation with you?" Ye Qin glanced at the yellow shadow and said calmly. The yellow shadow was Shi Hanyang. They went to search the remaining forbidden areas in the Lujia Fort. They searched two of them, and now they met again here.
"I didn't find anything."
Ye Qin nodded slightly, not doubting Shi Hanyang's words. If Shi Hanyang really discovered the spirit fruit, the first thing he had to do was to leave Lujia Castle instead of staying here.
"The only last forbidden area in the Lu Family Fort is left without investigation. However, there are two foundation-building monks here, one more person than other places. It is afraid that it will be difficult to get around their surveillance and enter the forbidden area. If the other monks in the fort are alarmed, all their efforts will be wasted."
Ye Qin looked carefully at the deepest part of Lujia Castle, a little worried. If there was only one Foundation Establishment Cultivator Guard, it would be easier to get in, but he would not be able to do it if the two of them.
"I'll handle these two guards. Brother Qin will help me watch the surroundings. If anyone else approaches here, try to attract them."
Shi Hanyang looked at the deepest part of the Lu Family Fort, his eyes were cold. He had long been eyeing this place. This was the retreat place of the ancestor of the Lu Family, and he didn't dare to approach it easily, just like Ye Qin. He waited in the Lu Family Fort for more than a month, and finally waited for the ancestor of the Lu Family to go out. How could he miss such a good opportunity?
......
In the deepest part of the Lu Family Fort, a middle-aged monk with the fourth-level foundation building and a young monk with the sixth-level foundation building, guarding outside, laughing and drinking wine. This is the retreat place of the ancestor of the Lu Family, and it belongs to one of the forbidden areas of the Lu Family Fort, but they all know that the secret room where the ancestor was retreating was actually empty and there was no valuable items inside. All valuable items were carried on the ancestor.
Therefore, the only function they were sent by Lu Yuanhong to guard this place was to prevent casual people from accidentally entering the secret room where the ancestor was in seclusion, so as not to cause the ancestor's anger. Tonight, the second young master of the Lu family got married, and the two monks in charge of duty also made exceptions to allow some wine.
Suddenly they saw a monk in yellow carrying a wine gourd, humming a small song, and staggering towards them.
"Who is this? This is the forbidden area of the Lu family, leave here immediately!"
The two guards immediately became alert. One of the middle-aged monks asked in a low voice. But before he finished speaking, the monk in yellow fell to the ground drunk and said something nonsense, which was extremely obscene. He wanted to get up several times, but he seemed to be a little drunk. He fell softly on the ground and couldn't get up. Finally, he just fell asleep on the ground, snoring sounded loudly.
"It's so unlucky for a bad alcoholic. Brother, what do you think?"
The young monk walked up and kicked it. The monk in yellow was silent. He could only turn around and ask the middle-aged monk.
The middle-aged monk then walked over and looked at the monk's face, waved his sleeves and brushed away his drunken smell, frowned and said, "It seems that he was a guest who had drunk too much at the wedding banquet. Take him away and throw him away casually in that empty house!"
The young monk nodded, lifted the fat man in yellow and threw him away.
However, the drunk monk in yellow had a change. A pink mist suddenly spurted out from under the monk in yellow, spraying on the two guards.
The two of them were shocked, but the mist was surprisingly strange and penetrated into their bodies in a very short time. Before they could even shout out a scream, they softened to the ground, and their skin was full of charming red.
However, the monk in yellow jumped up, and his slightly fat face was no longer drunk at all, but he was a little proud. With his cultivation level, it was easy to defeat two foundation-building monks, but it was definitely not easy to control the two foundation-building monks at once.
Ye Qin was secretly shocked when he saw Shi Hanyang overturning the two Foundation Establishment Guards to the ground so neatly. He floated out of the darkness and praised, "Brother Shi is such a good method. I wonder what kind of poison this is, but he can even paralyze the two mid-level monks in the Foundation Establishment Period?"
"This is the numb poison, the numb poison refined by the stinky liquid of the sixth-level multi-tailed fox demon is extremely rare in the world of immortal cultivation. It took me a lot of money to collect such a small gourd, but unfortunately I have used it all on the two of them today. Let's go into this secret room. The foundation-building monk was caught in the red mist and could only be paralyzed for several hours. We only have two or three hours to search this secret room."
Shi Hanyang smiled faintly, carrying two guards of the Lu family who had been completely paralyzed, and went straight into the secret room where the ancestor of the Lu family was in seclusion, threw the guards in a corner, and did not kill them, and then looked at the secret room.
Ye Qin suddenly realized and walked in.
He remembered one thing. Six years ago, when he was a qi-training monk, he was in the Wankuling trial. Senior Sister Yan Xuan, who led the team, was poisoned by such symptoms and recovered for three days. Later, he obtained a red gourd magic weapon from the disciple of the Great Romon, and he still stayed there. But he did not expect that this object would have such a strong paralysis effect on the foundation-building monks, and should not be underestimated.
He followed Shi Hanyang into a secret room in the deepest part of Lujiabao.
This secret room is ten feet in size and is made of solid stone slabs that are foot wide. It is quite spacious, but empty. Apart from a straw mat and an incense burner in the middle, there is no other item. This retreat place for the ancestor of the Lu family is surprisingly simple.
Ye Qin looked at the secret room for a moment and had to admit that he could not find any strange things in this secret room, let alone the spiritual fruit tree.
However, he didn't believe that there was really nothing here. If there was really a spiritual fruit tree in the Lujia Castle, the place where the ancestor was retreated was the most suspicious.
Ye Qin observed Shi Hanyang, who learned a lot of complicated things, such as magical techniques, mechanisms, formations, etc., and they all included everything. If you were to find something, Shi Hanyang would be more skilled than him.
Sure enough, Shi Hanyang scanned the secret room, carefully checked every place, and began to tinker in the secret room.
In less than half a minute, Shi Hanyang suddenly pressed several stone slabs in the secret room, and the stone wall on the inside of the secret room slowly opened up, revealing a cave.
This is a natural cave, a bit narrow, allowing two or three people to pass by, emitting a scent of cold and dampness.
"Although the ancestor of the Lu family has a high cultivation level, the skills of this mechanism are not very good! If what I expected, the biggest secret of the Lu family castle is in this stone cave. Brother Qin, follow me and take a look."
Shi Hanyang laughed and walked into the stone cave.
Ye Qin smiled and followed.
But he became alert in his heart. At the last moment, the biggest danger came from this smiling leader Shi. The monk who came out of a place where dragons and snakes mixed in such a chaotic place turned against him faster than reading books. After finding the spirit fruit, he didn't believe that this leader Shi, who always talked about "Brother Qin" would show mercy at all.
The two walked down the stone cave about hundreds of feet deep, and finally arrived at a very clean underground stone cave.
There was no way to go here, and there was only a cold pond flowing from the cracks of the rocks. The green water in the distance made Ye Qin feel a biting chill. But there was no sign of frost. The water was so cold that it was strange.
Ye Qin quickly focused all his attention on an old tree of ancient vine.
Next to the cold cold pond, there is an old tree that is more than ten feet tall and slightly dry. The age of this tree is probably more than thousands of years old. There are three green spiritual fruits on this tree.
However, the old tree was protected by a light blue water curtain. If what was expected was good, this should be the formation used by the ancestor of the Lu family to protect the spirit fruit tree.
"Brother Shi, the spiritual object referred to by the Holy Emperor should be the spiritual fruit on this old tree, right?"
Ye Qin stared at the spiritual fruit tree with a smile, but stood far away from the old tree and Shi Hanyang.
He did not act rashly. Firstly, he was not proficient in formation and could not unlock the formation ban on the old tree. Once the forbidden formation was touched, it would be very likely to alarm the ancestor of the Lu family and the disciples of the Lu family, which would be a bad idea. Secondly, he did not want to cause Shi Hanyang's misunderstanding, thinking that he wanted to compete for this spiritual fruit.
"Brother Qin, there are only three spiritual fruits, which seems not enough!" Shi Hanyang turned around and turned his gaze to Ye Qin with a smile.
"These three spiritual fruits were found by Brother Shi, so they should naturally belong to Brother Shi." Ye Qin said humbly.
Shi Hanyang was really strange this time. He thought that Ye Qin also wanted to get this spiritual fruit, and the two of them would inevitably have a fierce battle. Unexpectedly, Ye Qin actually gave up at this moment, and he was not easy to do it. He was a little doubtful if Ye Qin wanted to do some conspiracy, but would the conspiracy be useful in front of him?
"You don't want spiritual fruit, then what do you want?"
"I just want to get a branch of this old tree, and try to plant it after I go back."
"You want the branches of this old tree? The branches must grow into trees, which will take less than a thousand years. After they become a tree, it will take more than four or five hundred years to bear fruit, otherwise it will probably not bear fruit. When you get the spiritual fruit, it will happen 1,500 years later."
"It's okay. Although I can't use it, my great-children and great-grandchildren will sooner or later use this water spirit fruit tree."
"Then you might as well take away the entire fruit tree, which will save at least a thousand years of time." Shi Hanyang laughed jokingly without regard.
"This is not possible. Taking away a branch from the tree, the ancestor Lu will only be furious and will not pursue it continuously. But taking away this old tree that is related to the Lu family's fortune, the ancestor Lu is afraid that he will follow it to the end in his lifetime and must kill me. I want to remove the whole old tree, but I am afraid that I can't withstand the anger of the ancestor Lu." Ye Qin smiled bitterly, he was not greedy enough to ignore any danger. For him, getting a branch is not much different from getting a whole spiritual fruit tree. Why should I move the whole tree to stimulate the ancestor Lu?
"Haha, Brother Qin is quite wise. However, Brother Qin seems to recognize the wonderful use of this tree?"
"Yes, there are detailed records in the Qingdan Gate's rare spiritual tree classics. This tree is called the "Five Spirit Fruit Tree", which belongs to the eighth-level spiritual tree. It has five attributes, namely, gold, wood, water, fire and earth. The tree in front of you is obviously the water spirit fruit tree among the Five Spirit Fruit Tree. The water spirit fruit tree must grow in the water spirit land, and cannot grow in a place without abundant water spirit energy. This Lujia Castle is in the upper reaches of the Bian River, the largest river in Nanliang. This cave is the place with the most abundant water spirit energy. It is not surprising that this tree can grow here. The prosperity of Lujia Castle is all on this old tree.
The water spirit fruit tree bears three fruits at a time, usually ripening every five hundred years, and when it falls to the ground, it turns into water spirit energy. These three fruits have not yet matured and the medicinal power is insufficient, so it may take nearly a hundred years to ripen. However, because the water spirit fruit belongs to water spirit, only foundation-building monks with water spirit roots can play the role of breaking through the bottleneck of the golden elixir. Even if other spiritual roots are taken, they have no effect."
"It turns out that Brother Qin is a disciple of Qingdan Sect, which is not surprising. This leader can't wait for a hundred years. These three green fruits are used as a ripe fruit, and the effect is similar."
While the two were chatting, Shi Hanyang had cautiously come to the formation around the Spirit Fruit Tree and quickly broke the ban formation. This place is dangerous and not a place to stay for a long time.
In an hour, this blue formation was cracked. It was funny to say that the ancestor of the Lu family was not proficient in formations and was unwilling to use a dummy hand, so he only made a small water-attributed guard formation. However, Shi Hanyang seemed extremely proficient in formations. He could even break in the underground imperial tomb easily. A mere small guard formation seemed too simple for him.
As the blue water curtain disappeared, three unripe green spiritual fruits were also stored in Shi Hanyang's palm.
Shi Hanyang was full of joy at this time. After great hardships, he finally found the spiritual fruit that the Holy Emperor mentioned. The most important thing is that there is water spiritual root in his spiritual root attribute. Although his potential is very low, it also has it. With this spiritual fruit, he has the opportunity to form a pill.
Ye Qin waited for Shi Hanyang to collect the spirit fruit, and then he walked towards the spirit fruit tree, trying to cut off a branch from the old tree. At this moment, he suddenly felt a surge in his heart, and he looked at the entrance of the stone cave with alertness, and gently tapped under his feet, and was hidden under a rock in the cave.
Shi Hanyang's movements were no slower than him. In the blink of an eye, he had already shrunk in a shadow near the cold pond, staring at the entrance of the cave. He passed a secret message to Ye Qin and cooperated with the action. Now that the spirit fruit has been obtained, if he encounters an opponent, he will do whatever he wants.
