Novel Full Chapter 876 Day 2 Of The First Trial (2)
When Ji Yuan and his team had crossed over to a sand dune, they were suddenly astonished to see a desert rose that was in the distant horizon.
The profound animus of this desert rose radiated strongly for 10 miles and it immediately caught the attention of Ji Yuan and his team.
Chu Lixue immediately gasped with shock, “This desert rose is called the Hundred Blazing Rose and is at least 100 000 years old. It is a miracle herb that can increase the cultivation strength of the cultivators and is even useful for many profound pills. It can even increase the soul strength of a divine sword and have a chance to upgrade it too. It is extremely valuable. To think that we can encounter this miracle Hundred Blazing Rose in this place.”
Spirit Consort Miao Humei was also gasping with shock for she had also recognized it, “I can even be a divine consort with this Hundred Blazing Rose…”
“We can all divide it and receive its benefits together,” Xiao Muhan was grinning dreamily. “With just a little of this Hundred Blazing Rose, I can even breakthrough to a middle tier saint. We are in luck!”
Ma Huarong took a look at Hu Tao and Yi Ling before he smiled to Ji Yuan, “This is our lucky fortuitous encounter to be able to chance upon such a really rare find. Let’s pluck this Hundred Blazing Rose and share it together. What does Brother Ji Yuan think about this?”
Ji Yuan frowned, “This isn’t a good idea, right? There may be hidden dangers around this Hundred Blazing Rose too. Is this Hundred Blazing Rose really this valuable?”
When he said that, everyone replied. “Yes!!! It is really this valuable!”
Xiao Muhan pointed out, “It is worth 10 billion spirit stones at least for a fully intact Hundred Blazing Rose. Even a small piece of it can cost 1 billion spirit stones easily because you can breakthrough your cultivation realm with it easily.”
“I am a peaked great saint.” Ji Yuan frowned, “Do I even need it?”
Xiao Muhan raised his finger to say, “It is said that this Hundred Blazing Rose can even increase one’s potential in cultivation. And even though you are a peaked great saint but you have low potential.”
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
I will have low potential?!
Xiang Li pointed out with a giggle: Big Brother, you are weak in everything except for your sword cultivation.
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Chu Lixue smiled divinely, “It is said that the fresh juices of this Hundred Blazing Rose can even upgrade a divine sword. However, there is no way for me to verify this as we need a weapon refiner cultivator to tell us if this is possible. But the rumor is that it is entirely possible.”
“The reason why this is called a Hundred Blazing Rose is because it needs 100 cycles of 1000 years to fully bloom. Although there may be a price tag attached to it but you cannot really find anyone selling it. You probably have to go to the auction house for this.” Spirit Consort Miao Humei excitingly added after Chu Lixue.
Ji Yuan said with a weak hesitation as he could see that everyone in his team all had the intention to pluck it, “Well, is it dangerous to pluck it then?”
Hu Tao immediately said, “It is usually guarded by a 7th rank beast that requires its profound animus to nourish itself. As far as I know, there are no strong beasts around it as this Hundred Blazing Rose require 100 000 years to materialize in its surroundings and most profound beasts won’t rely on it to nourish itself.”
Spirit plants all have a maturity cycle and will only physically appear to the naked eyes after their maturity cycle is reached. Unless they mature, it is impossible to see and even impossible to know that they are there.
Ma Huarong emphasized, “It is a 100 000 spirit herb and it is also an easy pick.”
There were smiles on Yi Ling as she had also stepped in to reason, “This Hundred Blazing Rose must also bake in the burning sands at extreme temperatures in order to thrive. Its cycle of maturity is definitely more than 100 000 years. The reason why we are able to find it is probably because few cultivators will want to risk their lives in the burning desert to search for something like this.”
Ji Yuan nodded and against his better judgement, he said. “Alright then…”
His knowledge of spirit herbs was actually in a cultivation limbo and he had to rely on the others to advise him on this.
The truth was, Ji Yuan did not really care to pluck the spirit herbs even when he was in the Five Heavens Peak where there is a wonderland of spirit plants beneath the desolate mists; the weaker in spiritual aura a place is, the stronger is the desolate mists below. This naturally results in plentiful of spirit herbs and profound desolate beasts that lived off the profound animus of these spirit plants.
His main purpose when he ventured down the desolate mists was to train himself by fighting the desolate profound beasts instead.
The minute that he agreed to pluck this Hundred Blazing Rose, Ye Ling, Ma Huarong, Hu Tao, Xiao Muhan and even Spirit Consort Miao Humei were all rushing forward to pluck this Hundred Blazing Rose.
Ji Yuan was surprised to see that his Senior Sister Chu Lixue was smiling divinely at him instead.
“You’re not going to pluck this Hundred Blazing Rose?”
Chu Lixue giggled, “I am merely waiting for you to start. That Hundred Blazing Rose is ten miles ahead of us. I am confident of my swiftness movement skill even in this desert. Why don’t we have a race to see who can pluck this Hundred Blazing Rose?”
Ji Yuan laughed, “Actually my swiftness speed is number two and I have not met my number 1 in swiftness speed yet. If senior sister wants to beat me, you have better take off your cloak first. Haha…”
Chu Lixue had a sudden flush on her countenances, “No wonder my old man calls you a little rascal…”
All of a sudden, the desert sand ahead of them had three shades of gigantic horned beetles bursting forth from the sands and the entire ground was even shaking violently.
It was because these 3 gigantic horned beetles were not only huge but they were all 8th rank primeval monsters!
Spirit Consort Miao Humei screamed panicky, “8th rank primeval monsters, second class!”
“What the heck?!!! 8th rank?!” 3 of them?!” Ji Yuan was in disbelief, “Who says this Hundred Blazing Rose is guarded by a mere 7th profound beast?!”
Chu Lixue smiled weakly, “Have it ever occur to you that we are in the Spirit Divine Realm and there are no profound beasts here? And moreover, this is the Spiritas Tower so it is likely that it may be guarded by the more powerful primeval monsters too.”𝐎𝔳𝓁xt.𝒸𝒐𝑚
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
“Senior sister, why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Chu Lixue had already unsheathed her divine sword, “That is because I’ve just thought of this. Hurry, we need to save them or some of them may perish very soon…”
Ji Yuan had already sped forward in a hurry.
