Chapter 328: Chapter 326 Longevity Pan Peachi
The Demonic Vine is a fifth-ranked Demonic Plant from the medicine garden in Langyue Blessed Land. It relishes spiritual seeds and the branches and leaves of spiritual plants. It has an extremely keen sense of perception for spiritual seeds.
After acquiring it in the medicine garden, Lu Xuan, guided by it, secured the Phoenix Wood, a sixth-level ancient spiritual plant, from three of his peers.
If it’s showing this kind of response, it indicates that there must be high-grade spiritual plants ahead.
“Lead the way ahead and if we really find a high-grade spirit seed, once it matures, I will certainly let you have a feast,” Lu Xuan casually feeds it a big pie.
The Demonic Vine fluttered its grey vine excitedly, crawling like a grey snake and leaving behind traces of sticky mucus of various depths on the ground.
A moment later, Lu Xuan followed the Demonic Vine to a desolate medicine garden.
Most of the spiritual plants in the garden were withered, appearing utterly dry and decayed. A small part of them were growing normally. The ground was littered with demon beast skeletons that shattered underfoot.
This medicine garden, there is something fishy about it.”
A cooling breath emanated from the Immaculate Jade hanging around Lu Xuan s neck, indicating that there was an abnormal presence in the garden. Fortunately, the cooling sensation hadn’t reached freezing level, which indicates that the abnormal presence was still within his control.
Lu Xuan carefully observed his surroundings, confirming there was no abnormality before proceeding towards the center of the medicine garden.
The further inside he went, the more desolate the medicine garden became. But at the very center, there was a peach tree, thriving with dense branches and leaves.
The peach tree was enveloped in spiritual energy and a faint fragrance wafted from it, inviting people to come closer and appreciate it.
Just as Lu Xuan was about to cast a Spirit Rain Technique to gain insight into the peach tree…
Suddenly, countless nearly transparent threads appeared on the Hidden Spirit Cloak he wore, which instantly rendered his entire body invisible.
It was as if a thin special substance had covered his eyes, making everything in the garden feel remote and unreal.
He sensed that someone was approaching.
A few moments later, two Foundation Establishment cultivators, led by a butterfly adorned with spiritual patterns, arrived before the peach tree.
An old man with the disposition of a Dark Vulture and a thin, elderly woman.
‘I did not expect there would indeed be a high-grade spiritual plant here.”
The elder woman had a face full of wrinkles like gullies. She gestured, and the butterfly, which has been flying around the peach tree, landed back on her hand.
Many thanks to Lady Bai for having this spiritual pattern butterfly which could sense the spiritual energy hidden within the plants. Without it, we wouldn’t have found it so easily.”
The Dark Vulture Elder was none other than Ning DeShan, who has met Lu Xuan several times before. He was now staring intently at the peach tree, exuding a pleasant fragrance, and spoke under his breath.
Lady Bai, the thin elder woman, was the owner of a small island among the group of islands. The two met a long time ago and have been close for almost a hundred years. Therefore, they entered the secret land together to explore treasures.
She nurtured a Spiritual Pattern Butterfly which had a keen sense for various spiritual plants. Guided by it, they could quickly locate this Spirit Peach Tree. “The spirit peach tree, it doesn’t seem ordinary. Fellow Daoist Ning, do you know its origin?” The thin elder woman asked Ning DeShan.
“Like Lady Bai, even I haven’t seen such a spiritual plant before.”
Ning DeShan shook his head.
No matter, after bringing it out of the secret land, we can have cultivators from the big trading association to identify it.”
There are exactly six spirit peaches, why don’t we split them halfway, what do you think Fellow Daoist Ning?”
“I will comply with whatever arrangement Fellow Daoist Bai makes.”
So, Lady Bai, you go ahead and pick those six Spirit Peaches, while I stay here to watch and protect against any ill-intentioned people or demon beasts trying to launch a surprise attack.”
“Alright, I count on you, Elder Ning.”
From the old woman’s sleeve floated a pure white long silk, fluttering around her body.
This long silk was a Third Rank defensive magic artifact, possessing impressive protective ability.
Taking one step forward and crossing a distance of five to six zhang, she arrived directly underneath the Spirit Peach Tree.
With Ning DeShan’s surveillance and her own Pure White Long Silk Artifact, she felt extremely at ease.
She reached out to pluck a tender pinkish-white Spirit Peach, couldn’t resist giving it a sniff, then placed it in a silver dish.
“Elder Ning, this Spirit Peach…”
As she turned around, intending to convey that the rank of the Spirit Peach is better than expected, suddenly, a dark light, swift as lightning, pierced through the protection of the long silk, and in a blink of an eye, reached her chest.
“You dare ambush me!”
Before the old woman could react, a piece of Black Bone Claw penetrated her heart.
Looking up, she saw that one of Ning DeShan’s arms had turned into a shriveled black claw, he was standing not far away, looking at her coldly.
Before she could respond, another shuttle-shaped magic tool arrived at incredible speed, its overwhelming spiritual energy shattered her entire soul sea.
The Heart Locking Claw secret technique, in combination with a Third Rank
Magic Weapon’s sneak attack, she should be completely dead.”
After confirming the old woman’s death, Ning DeShan approached her.
The black bone claw jumped out from her heart and merged back into his withered arm.
Under the effect of the healing pills, new muscles started growing on the withered arm, but it looked much smaller than his other normal arm.
This was a secret technique he had mastered called Heart-Locking Claw, which could burn the essence blood and muscles in his arm, instantly unleashing immense power.”
With the surprise attack of the shuttle-shaped magic tool and his deep understanding of his friend, he was able to completely take care of her in a short span of time.”
“Don’t blame me for being ruthless, this Longevity Pan Peach is just too important to me.”
“A Longevity Pan Peach can add five to ten years to one’s lifespan, even if the effect diminishes after repeated use, it can still extend my time by quite a bit, so how could I possibly be willing to split such a treasure with you?”
Ning DeShan wore a hollow smile, speaking chillingly towards the corpse of the old woman on the ground.”
He already knew his end was near, thus he painstakingly sought out elixirs, spirit fruits, secret techniques that could extend his lifespan and unexpectedly, stumbled upon information about this Spirit Peach in a book.”
The Spirit Peach, also known as the Longevity Pan Peach, a fifth-grade spirit plant, could add five to ten years of life depending on a cultivator’s cultivation level.”
This was priceless for Ning DeShan, whose days were numbered.”
After seeing the Spirit Peach, he immediately recognized it and his desire for longevity overcame his bond with the old lady, hence, he did not hesitate to kill her.”
With these six Longevity Pan Peaches, my lifespan can be extended by several decades. If I’m lucky, I might even breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment mid – term and defy fate.”
Ning DeShan seemed to see his wonderful future, and couldn’t suppress the
smile at the corner of his mouth.”
He took a deep breath to control the joy in his heart, scanning his surroundings cautiously as he quickly approached the Longevity Peach tree.”
“My lifespan…”
The instant he was about to touch the pinkish-white Spirit Peach, his outstretched arm couldn’t help but tremble slightly.”
“Elder Ning, with all these longevity-adding Spirit Peaches, aren’t you afraid that overconsumption might mean that you don’t live to a ripe old age?” Suddenly, a light laughter rang out.
