Chapter 240: The Pill of Burning Origin
Chapter 240: The Pill of Burning Origin
With Lu Chen's command, evenly divided grilled meat, spirit fruits, and spirit nectar descended upon the awaiting beasts.
The beasts indulged in the feast, devouring the delicacies with gusto, their roars and cries filled with intense joy and happiness.
Aside from their delicious taste, these spirit fruits and nectars could also enhance the physical constitution of the beasts to varying degrees.
Especially for the young Flood Dragon, after consuming just half a piece of the Blazing Flame Fruit, its body was suddenly engulfed in crimson flames that burned quietly for a long time before dissipating.
Once the spiritual flames vanished, the scales on the young dragon's body instantly became bright and lustrous, giving it a refreshed and revitalized appearance.
After a busy day, Lu Chen lay on a rattan chair, his spiritual power manifesting as an invisible palm that took a piece of the cut Blazing Flame Fruit from the nearby fruit plate.
As soon as he popped it into his mouth, the soft fruit flesh transformed into a ball of flame that burst inside his mouth, releasing a rich and scorching aroma. A warm sensation spread from his mouth, traveling down to his limbs and bones, warming his entire body.
Only after the Blazing Flame Fruit was completely digested did Lu Chen open his mouth and exhale a breath of hot air.
With his appetite stimulated by the spirit fruit, he began to savor the grilled demonic beast meat.
After spending so much time in this world, his culinary skills had progressed rapidly, and he no longer merely absorbed the spiritual power contained within the demonic beast meat but also paid more attention to developing flavors.
During the grilling process, he could manipulate fire-type techniques at will, and with the various spices he had painstakingly collected, the results were excellent.
The golden-brown meat exuded a fragrant aroma, with a crispy exterior and tender interior. Upon entering his mouth, a burst of flavors—tender, crispy, spicy, and numbing—exploded on his palate.
"Good meat should be paired with fine wine."
The dusky yellow Drunken Immortal Gourd at his waist freed itself from its restraints and flew to Lu Chen's head, pouring a stream of colorful spirit liquid into his mouth.
It was the hundred-fruit spirit nectar that he had specially stored in the gourd for aging.
After just a short while, the spirit nectar's flavor had become even more distinct and rich, with the tastes of various spirit fruits taking turns to delight his palate, causing Lu Chen to sink into a state of intoxication.
"Hey, little ones shouldn't drink alcohol."
Through his drunken haze, he sensed a gray vine of the Demon Ghost Vine sneaking up to steal the Drunken Immortal Gourd floating in the air.
Lu Chen slapped it away and scolded, "Get away from there!"
The night was as cool as water, and a meteor streaked across the sky above, perhaps indicating the operation of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Sword Formation.
Lu Chen lay in the rattan chair for a long time, thoroughly relaxed and content.
Gazing at the numerous spirit plants bathed in the moonlight, his mind wandered back to the experiences he had after becoming an inner disciple.
He recalled improving the Spirit Glow Grass, resolving the issues with the Yin-Yang Kun Fish and the Green Mysterious Deer, and entering the Lang Yue Blessed Land, where he gained numerous opportunities.
Upon returning from the blessed land, his spirit fields boasted several more high-grade spirit plants.
Currently, among the fourth grade and above spirit plants, he had the fourth-grade Spirit Insect Vine, the Earthfire Heart Lotus, and the Spirit-Containing Pine. There was also the fifth-grade Demon Ghost Vine and the ancient and rare Phoenix Wood, which he had seized from others despite incurring enmity.
In the small courtyard in Jianmen Town, he also had the fourth-grade Hundred-Eyed Weirdwood and the fifth-grade Holy Infant Fruit.
The most abundant were the second-grade spirit plants, including over eighty Water Glow Grasses, as well as many Blazing Flame Fruits, Ice Vine Fruits, Sword Grasses, the classified Yin Huai, and the experimental Neon Light Grass and Sun Fragrance Fruit.
As for third-grade spirit plants, there was the Jade Scale Fruit and the Sword-Nurturing Gourd, which were in the maturation stage, as well as the Moon Dew Grass, the Flood Dragon Vine, the Mystical Illusion Peach, and the Wind-Thunder Sword Grass, a mutated variant of the second-grade Sword Grass, all of which were in the growth stage.
Being able to cultivate so many rare and high-grade spirit plants with just the cultivation base of the early Qi Refinement stage made Lu Chen extremely satisfied.
Not to mention the abundant light sphere rewards hidden behind these spirit plants.
Lu Chen smiled at the thought.
...
In the blink of an eye, three days passed, and Lu Chen had remained on the mountain peak without taking a single step away.
He spent his days cultivating spirit plants, caring for and playing with his spirit beasts, and occasionally practicing his cultivation techniques, leading a simple yet fulfilling life.
Several types of spirit plants on the mountain had entered their maturation stage.
There were still a few unripe spiritual fruits hanging on the Jade Scale Fruit plant, and on the Sword-Nurturing Gourd vine, three sword gourds remained, absorbing the residual sword intent from the discarded flying swords.
As for the Blazing Flame Fruit, three more fully ripened fruits were found.
Among the ten Blazing Flame Fruit plants, there were a total of eighty to ninety spiritual fruits, thus increasing the likelihood of finding mature fruits.
The three Blazing Flame Fruits resembled clusters of blazing flames, their vibrant red color standing out against the pale red leaves.
Lu Chen coated his palms with a layer of fire-attributed spiritual qi and carefully plucked the three spiritual fruits.
Three thoughts flashed through his mind.
"All of good quality, not bad."
After scanning the fruits to confirm their quality, Lu Chen turned his attention to the three white orbs of light that appeared along with them.
He gently touched the nearest orb.
A thought flashed through his mind, and a red stone bead appeared in his palm.
"Another third-grade Burst Flame Pearl."
The moment the stone bead appeared, Lu Chen recognized it.
He carefully stored the Burst Flame Pearl away and focused his attention on the second white orb.
The orb transformed into countless microscopic specks of light that flowed into his body.
It was another third-grade Burst Flame Pearl.
"Three third-grade Burst Flame Pearls, their explosive power would be unimaginable if triggered together."
Lu Chen marveled inwardly.
He approached the last white orb.
As he reached out and gently touched its surface, a wave of coolness washed over him, and the orb transformed into countless specks of light that instantly flowed into his body.
Harvest a second-grade Blazing Flame Fruit and obtain a third-grade Burning Origin Pill.
As soon as the thought flashed through his mind, a bright red pill appeared in his hand.
The pill was the size of a pigeon egg, with several faint pill marks on its surface, exuding a strong fire-attributed spiritual power and an underlying hint of restlessness.
Lu Chen focused his mind on the pill, instantly gaining detailed information about it.
Burning Origin Pill, a third-grade pill. Upon consumption, it instantly ignites the refined essence within the body, greatly enhancing a cultivator's strength, speed, and self-healing abilities, among others. The effects vary depending on the cultivator's cultivation base and last for half an hour to two hours.
After the pill's effects wear off, the cultivator will enter a period of weakness and can use foundation-stabilizing pills or spirit herbs to speed up recovery.
"Instantly igniting the refined essence within the body, no wonder it's named the Burning Origin Pill."
"However, under certain circumstances, it could be quite useful."
"Being able to greatly enhance one's battle prowess in a short period, at the cost of a subsequent period of weakness, if utilized properly, could yield excellent results."
Lu Chen took out a small white jade bottle from his storage bag, removed the stopper, and placed the fiery red pill inside.
"Another ordinary day of harvesting spirit plants."
The two third-grade Burst Flame Pearls and the third-grade Burning Origin Pill would all be of great use to Lu Chen, who was currently in the early stages of the Foundation Establishment realm.
He stretched lazily, gazing at the numerous flame-like spiritual fruits on the ten Blazing Flame Fruit plants, a sense of harvest joy welling up within him.
