Chapter 399: Supreme Elixir and Guardian Spirit Beast
Chapter 399: Supreme Elixir and Guardian Spirit Beast
November 30th, 2024
Lu Qing activated his extraordinary ability and gazed at the five-colored sacred lotus.
Soon, dense purple light of extraordinary ability emerged from the lotus, and several strips of text floated out.
"Purple Aura!"
Lu Qing was startled by this sight and quickly looked at the strips of text.
[Quintessence Lotus: A supreme elixir nurtured by pure quintessence essences.]
[This elixir contains pure quintessence essences, and refining it thoroughly has a high chance of transforming one into a Quintessence Body.]
[The elixir has matured and can be harvested.]
[Elixirs with pure quintessence essences require a container of Jade Marrow quality or higher to preserve its potency.]
[The potency of a supreme elixir is immense, containing Dao rules. Only those at the Golden Core Realm or above can consume and refine it; otherwise, there is a risk of the body exploding and death.]
[Rare elixirs are often guarded by exotic beasts and spirit beasts. Caution is required during harvesting.]
...
"Quintessence Lotus, a supreme elixir!"
After reading the strips of text, Lu Qing was overjoyed.
He never expected that such a supreme elixir would be nurtured in this mystic realm.
It is common knowledge that elixirs, like magical treasures, are categorized into different grades: lower-grade, middle-grade, upper-grade, and supreme.
Among them, supreme elixirs are undoubtedly the most precious, even causing Primordial Spirit Powerhouses to covet them.
Unexpectedly, within this mystic realm, there existed such a supreme elixir!
"This lotus possesses all five elements and contains Dao rules. It's a supreme elixir!"
"Flame" appeared beside Lu Qing once more, his face filled with shock.
As the only Artifact Spirit guarding the sect's treasures in the Blaze Sect, "Flame" had extensive knowledge.
Especially in the fields of artifact crafting and elixir refining, his insight was unparalleled, earning him the title of Grand Master.
After all, during the ancient cultivation era, the Blaze Sect had used the Flame Cauldron to craft countless treasures and pills.
Therefore, even though "Flame" had never seen a Quintessence Lotus before, he could instantly determine its grade.
"Young Master, quick! We mustn't miss this opportunity. Hurry and harvest it."
"Flame" was extremely excited.
Even back in the Blaze Sect, he had only witnessed a supreme elixir once.
It was during that time that after refining a supreme elixir into a pill, he gained insight into a higher level of Dao rules, advancing to become a middle-grade spirit artifact.
However, Lu Qing didn't act rashly. Instead, he scanned the surroundings.
He hadn't forgotten the warning in the text he had just read.
Rare elixirs were often guarded by exotic beasts and spirit beasts.
Since this Quintessence Lotus was so precious, if it had a guardian, its strength would undoubtedly be formidable.
After observing for a while, Lu Qing didn't notice anything unusual. He took out a stone.
With a flick of his finger, a powerful gust of wind whistled towards the Quintessence Lotus.
"Young Master, you..."
"Flame" was startled and was about to say something when suddenly, a streak of light shot out from the pond and rushed towards the stone Lu Qing had thrown.
Slap!
The stone shattered instantly upon impact with the streak of light.
The light then landed on the shore, revealing its original form.
It was a wing-snake, as thick as an arm, with a pair of wings on its back, a small pair of horns on its head, and a colorful body. It glared at Lu Qing and the others with hostility.
"A guardian spirit beast?!"
"Flame" was startled again. He hadn't sensed the presence of a wing-snake beneath the water.
Lu Qing immediately activated his extraordinary ability and looked at the wing-snake.
Soon, several strips of text appeared in his field of vision.
[Quintessence Wyvern: A special spirit beast nurtured by this mystic realm.]
[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Peak, just one step away from Dragon Transformation.]
[Nourished by the five elements, its physical body is powerful, comparable to the Early Golden Core Realm.]
】
【This spiritual beast has lived for a millennium, guarding the growth of the Quintessence Lotus and waiting for the lotus seeds to ripen so it can consume them and transform into a dragon.】
...
"A Foundation Establishment Realm spiritual beast with a body comparable to the Golden Core Realm!"
When Lu Qing saw this information about the Wyvern, he didn't hesitate and immediately summoned the Heaven and Earth Qi Bag.
The originally purse-sized Heaven and Earth Qi Bag instantly expanded, becoming half the size of a person.
A beam of yellow light flew out, heading towards the Wyvern.
The might of a Spirit Artifact was truly terrifying, and the Wyvern's spiritual senses were extremely sharp. As soon as the yellow beam flew out, it shuddered, its eyes revealing a look of fear, and it tried to escape towards the pond behind it.
But the attack of the Spirit Artifact was incredibly swift, and it was not that easy to dodge.
Moreover, Lu Qing's attack was almost like an ambush, making it even harder to guard against.
Thus, before the Wyvern could react, the yellow beam had already struck its body.
At that moment, the Wyvern's attempt to escape froze, and it couldn't move at all.
"Senior 'Flame', quickly!"
As Lu Qing pinned down the Wyvern, he gave the command, and 'Flame' immediately understood.
Controlling the Flame Cauldron, it flew out from Lu Qing's neck, expanding to the size of a water jar, and enveloped the Wyvern.
Upon seeing this, the Wyvern's fear intensified, visible in its vertical pupils.
However, with its soul pinned down by the yellow beam, it could do nothing but watch helplessly as it was covered by the Flame Cauldron, sinking into darkness.
After seeing 'Flame' capture the Wyvern in the Flame Cauldron, Lu Qing finally heaved a sigh of relief and put away the Heaven and Earth Qi Bag.
At the same time, a sense of relief flashed through his mind.
Fortunately, he had recently broken through in his cultivation, further enhancing his control over the Heaven and Earth Qi Bag.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy to pin down this Wyvern.
After all, according to the information obtained through his extraordinary ability, this creature's physical strength was comparable to the Golden Core Realm.
If it had caused a ruckus, he wouldn't have been confident in suppressing it.
Fortunately, a spiritual beast was still a spiritual beast.
Even with its high spirituality, having grown up in this secluded mystic realm, its thoughts were still quite simple.
It was easily ambushed and temporarily suppressed.
"What kind of spiritual beast is this? Its physical strength is so powerful!"
At this moment, 'Flame's' exclamation reached Lu Qing's ears.
"Senior 'Flame', what's wrong?" Lu Qing asked.
"This Wyvern I just captured has an incredibly strong body. Despite being only at the Foundation Establishment Realm, the physical strength it unleashed is comparable to a Golden Core Realm spiritual beast."
'Flame's' tone was filled with astonishment.
It was the first time it had encountered such a unique spiritual beast.
"Then, Senior 'Flame', do you have the confidence to suppress it?"
"Rest assured, this little thing only has a strong body. But it's not a true Golden Core Realm being. Once it enters my spatial chamber, there's absolutely no chance of it escaping again."
'Flame' said with utmost confidence.
If it were a true Golden Core Realm being, it wouldn't dare to make such a bold claim.
After all, the Flame Cauldron had not yet recovered to its peak state and couldn't unleash its full power.
Golden Core Realm cultivators have comprehended the mysteries of Magical Energy, and their physical strength, spiritual senses, and spellcasting power undergo a qualitative transformation.
In its current state, it might not be able to suppress it.
But this Wyvern only possessed the brute strength of the Golden Core Realm, while its cultivation realm was still at the Foundation Establishment Realm. It couldn't possibly fathom the mysteries of the Spirit Artifact's spatial chamber.
For it, suppressing this Wyvern was relatively easy.
"As long as it can be suppressed, that's good."
Lu Qing nodded and then shifted his gaze to the pond.
However, this time, besides the Five-Colored Sacred Lotus, his attention was mostly focused on the distinctively colored liquid in the pond.
