Chapter 465: The Change in Yunnan-Tibet! Sovereign Fifth Rank!
Chapter 465: The Change in Yunnan-Tibet! Sovereign Fifth Rank!
The "Root of the Wood" was the name Su Ping had given to this potion.
Bijiao Chuncan didn't mind that this was one of her failed products, so she naturally gave Su Ping the right to name it.
The name had a profound meaning.
The Heart of the Wood was the original name of the Heart of Ten Thousand Souls.
It was also the only valuable potion recipe left behind by Su Ping's grandfather, Su Chong Guang, aside from the Heart of the Wood courtyard.
After Su Ping perfected it, it became the foundation of the Heart of Ten Thousand Souls' development and the starting point of his dreams.
Now, the Root of the Wood had become a pillar supporting the Heart of Ten Thousand Souls during times of financial shortage.
The appearance of this potion was also different from ordinary potions.
As a potion used by plant-type Companion Beasts, it couldn't be judged by conventional standards.
It looked like a green, large potato.
It was soft and fluffy, similar to dough when touched.
Any plant-type Companion Beast could insert its roots into this "dough" and absorb the nutrients within a day, allowing it to complete its profound comprehension.
Of course, the true nature of this potion wasn't suitable for disclosure to outsiders.
It was extremely valuable, and just like the cultivation of the Heart of the Wood, it was too easy, which could attract unnecessary trouble.
"Senior, are you here first, or is Xiaoxue here first?" Su Ping asked with a slight smile as he looked at the arriving figure.
Sang Sheng glanced at Su Ping and then looked at Qin Xiaoxue: "Let Xiaoxue go first! I'll also see the effects."
Su Ping raised an eyebrow: "Senior, I only have one usable resource material on hand. You said on the phone that if time is insufficient, you need to make a trip. At that time..."
Sang Sheng smiled: "What resources do you need? If you trust me, you can tell me, and I can help you find them."
Su Ping suddenly remembered some gossip he had heard before.
Among the Holy Spirit Rank Beastmasters, the one in front of him, although not as old as the Mad Saint, was extremely wealthy.
It was said that he was one of the best in the Holy Spirit Rank at cultivating beasts in space.
As for trust, that wasn't a concern.
The resources used by Beastmasters were usually top-secret.
If a skilled Beastmaster could deduce the cultivation method through resources, it would be a problem.
However, Su Ping didn't need to worry about this.
The origin of Xiao Qing's Emerald Demon body and Bijiao Chuncan's background were still a mystery, even now.
The many mysterious aspects were worth Su Ping's research and development.
Thinking of this, Su Ping nodded: "If that's the case, then thank you, Senior. If you can find the resources, you can deduct them from your cultivation fees!"
"You're still so confident, kid. Alright, I'll see..."
Before she finished speaking, the phone rang. Sang Sheng picked it up, her brow furrowed, but she still answered.
She didn't mind Su Ping and Qin Xiaoxue standing beside her.
Su Ping wasn't paying attention initially, but after hearing this, he looked at Sang Sheng with suspicion.
It seemed that something had happened, and it was related to the Celestial Surveillance Bureau?
"Okay, I understand. I have things to attend to and will set out in a few days. For now, it's a good thing, I suppose?"
"Uh-huh."
After hanging up the phone, Su Ping asked: "Senior, what's going on? If it's confidential..."
In this vast dragon nation, these Holy Spirit Rank existences were in charge of managing various regions, so there were many things happening.
"There's nothing to hide, and it's not confidential. The news is already spreading online, but not many people have discovered it. In Yunnan-Tibet and the southern border of the dragon nation, some areas have appeared that have never been seen before."
Sang Sheng sighed: "These areas have an abundance of wood-type energy, and many Companion Beasts and fierce beasts have appeared out of thin air. As a Holy Spirit Rank Beastmaster specializing in wood-type plants, I need to investigate and see what's happening. However, the news from above suggests that it's possible that spatial convergence has occurred..."
"Spatial convergence?" Su Ping and Qin Xiaoxue exclaimed in surprise.
Sang Sheng nodded: "Spatial convergence is when the secret realm completely appears in the real world, affecting the space and possibly bringing dangers and opportunities from the secret realm into reality."
In summary, I'll go and take a look at the time."
As she spoke, Su Ping's heart stirred.
He hurriedly said, "Senior, where exactly is this place? Do you know? Since it's on the border, is it in the Elm Ridge of Yunnan-Tibet?"
Sang Sheng looked at Su Ping with a strange expression:
"You little rascal, what are you talking about? To the south of Yunnan-Tibet lies the Beast Empire of the Ten Thousand Great Mountains, a forbidden land for humans, where the peaks and ridges are numerous. During this incident, some of the Ten Thousand Great Mountains' Holy Spirit Beasts have ventured out to investigate.
As for Elm Ridge? First of all, elm trees, as a type of plant, are typically found in the Dragon Country region and would not normally be found in the Yunnan-Tibet region, mostly in the central and northern areas.
How could a place like Yunnan-Tibet be named after an elm tree? Where did you hear this name? Are you sure it's in Yunnan-Tibet?"
Su Ping scratched his head.
Then he blinked.
So that's how it is?
After returning from the North Plains, he hadn't actually looked into it.
The Elm Ridge that Duke of Nanzhao Simu Feng mentioned about two thousand years ago, is now in an unknown realm, and it's normal for names to change over time.
However, even though he received this news, Su Ping still felt a stir within him.
Is this incident in Yunnan-Tibet related to the legacy left by Duke of Nanzhao Simu Feng within the Five Saints' legacy, and the tree he mentioned? His heart was slightly agitated.
He wasn't particularly interested in this Holy Spirit peak from nearly two thousand years ago, who was almost at the legendary Beastmaster rank.
As for the so-called legacy, he had a 'it's fate' attitude.
But, there was something extremely important inside!
One of the two resource materials that Spring Demon Bichuan wanted.
Alongside the elixir of immortality.
It was a tree.
That tree, would it also appear?
If this secret realm space convergence incident is true, that very likely alongside the elixir of immortality, the special resource might fly away?
This matter is not something to be taken lightly! With even a small chance, one must not be careless! He had a good grasp of how much he had gained from this person, but he was more concerned about this matter than the Water Lord's, and this was something he needed to attend to urgently.
Speaking of which, after he advanced to the fourth rank of the Sovereign Beastmaster, during this time, he could also barely manage to unlock the snake text within the Nanzhao King's legacy.
Before, he wasn't in a hurry.
But, with this news, it seemed urgent?
After all, it's normal for plans to change!
Su Ping thought for a moment and said, "Senior, I'll accompany you to Yunnan-Tibet."
Sang Sheng exclaimed, "Huh? What are you going there for? I've heard that you've been busy to the point of sitting on hot coals recently!"
Even if it's busy, one must choose the right time! Who knows what kind of situation this is?
If he guessed wrong, then so be it.
But if it's true, and he breaks his promise to Spring Demon Bichuan, this person who is currently in an unknown state of 'you're good, I'm good, everyone's good', might take it out on him, who knows?
Indeed, every gift of fate comes with a price.
Su Ping was truly anxious.
This news had obviously not surfaced just today.
The Yunnan-Tibet side had probably discovered it long ago, and if they had left a day later, it was possible that the mysterious tree would have been found and taken away by someone else.
He nodded:
"Since that's the case, then I won't beat around the bush with you, Elder Sang. If you can, could you get me the Green Wilderness Seed and the Heaven and Earth Tree Root?"
"The Green Wilderness Seed and the Heaven and Earth Tree Root? Just these two things?"
It was clear that even Elder Sang, a senior in the Beast Tamer Association, found the required resources for cultivation to be slightly lacking.
Su Ping nodded.
"You wait..."
After Elder Sang spoke, she then slightly calmed her mind. About thirty seconds later, she extended her hand, and two spatial fluctuations appeared, directly materializing the items in her palm.
It was none other than the two Imperial Resources that Su Ping had just mentioned.
"It's been a while since I've paid attention to the cultivation grounds of Imperial Wood-type resources. It's a bit difficult to find, but take a look, are their maturity and grade acceptable?"
The calm and collected Elder Sang spoke.
These two Imperial Wood-type resources were nothing to her.
Indeed, she was truly wealthy.
Su Ping nodded repeatedly:
"Perfect! Xiaoxue, you should be cultivating the Life Ancient Tree, right? Summon it out. Let's finish this quickly, and we'll try to leave for Yunnan-Tibet as early as possible!"
Qin Xiaoxue also nodded in agreement.
Being able to go to Yunnan-Tibet with Su Ping alone was a good thing, even though the old lady was present.
Moreover, she wasn't joking; she genuinely wanted to find a mutated Plant-type Companion Beast in Yunnan-Tibet.
The peculiar Life-type and Death-type coexisting Life Ancient Tree appeared once again, causing Su Ping to pat its trunk. He then said:
"Have you found an Evolution Beastmaster for this Life Ancient Tree of yours?"
Upon hearing this, not only Qin Xiaoxue but even Elder Sang's eyes lit up.
In this world, this young man in front of them could definitely compete for the strongest position in specialized mutated Companion Beast cultivation.
Even the Holy Dragon Legend knew that Su Ping loved mutated Companion Beasts the most.
When it came to cultivating mutated beasts, he was like a fish in water.
However, this wasn't a game, and Su Ping was in a hurry. Whether he had the time to help or not was another matter, which made the two of them feel embarrassed to ask.
Now that Su Ping had taken the initiative to mention it, Elder Sang quickly said, "Not yet. Su Ping, do you have any ideas?"
Su Ping narrowed his eyes. Life and death, weren't they also a form of Tai Chi?
He smiled and patted the Life Ancient Tree in front of him:
"When we return from Yunnan-Tibet, I'll study and think of a way. But even I can't guarantee it."
"No problem. As long as you're willing to help, that's good enough!"
Elder Sang readily agreed and then said, "Su Ping, rest assured. I won't let you help for nothing."
Su Ping didn't mind. He waved his hand and said, "After you see the effects tomorrow, help me spread the word among the advanced Plant Beastmasters in our Dragon Kingdom."
"No problem. You might not have enough time later... Hmm? Tomorrow?"
Elder Sang had just promised, but the next moment, she realized something and asked in surprise.
Su Ping cleared his throat:
"The situation in Yunnan-Tibet is related to the connection between our Dragon Kingdom and the Ten Thousand Great Mountains at the border. It's a big deal. Of course, I can't delay important matters for personal reasons. Tomorrow morning, we'll probably set off for Yunnan-Tibet!"
After speaking, Su Ping didn't explain further. He led the Life Ancient Tree and quickly disappeared into the core cultivation area of the Wood Heart.
Watching Su Ping vanish, Elder Sang blinked, not quite understanding what this young man was up to.
But soon, she figured it out.
Because the next morning, when she woke up from her meditation, she saw Su Ping and Qin Xiaoxue visiting, along with the Life Ancient Tree whose aura had undergone a significant change.
Not only that, but the change in aura also applied to the young man in front of her.
"Su Ping, what's this...?"
Su Ping waved his hand:
"It's nothing. I just had a small breakthrough in my meditation last night, reaching the Fifth Rank of the Sovereign Realm. It's a small matter. Elder Sang, you two look, how's the cultivation of this Life Ancient Tree going?"
There was no need for Su Ping to say more; both of them had already sensed it very clearly.
However, Elder Sang turned around and looked at her great-granddaughter with a peculiar gaze, obviously refuting Qin Xiaoxue's words from yesterday:
'You little brat, after contracting your fourth Companion Beast, can you surpass this young man?'
Was this young man too abnormal?
