Chapter 506: Plant Pairing and Potion Gifts
Chapter 506: Plant Pairing and Potion Gifts
"Take a look at these, for example." Su Yu led Zhong Feng to a planting area in the northeastern part of Tsushima Island, where vast fields of Destruction Mushrooms were cultivated.
The Destruction Mushroom functions similarly to the Cherry Bomb—it explodes upon contact with enemies, dealing damage to a large area.
However, their sizes are quite different.
The Cherry Bomb is only as big as an adult's fist, while the Destruction Mushroom stands at half a meter tall, with a large black cap adorned with a pair of fierce red eyes.
The larger size naturally means a more powerful explosion.
If the Cherry Bomb is the magical equivalent of a "hand grenade," the Destruction Mushroom is like a "missile."
Su Yu explained to Zhong Feng, "The Destruction Mushroom has a very wide explosion radius. If angels were to drop them from the sky onto the monsters below, they could easily be injured by the blast. It's better to have the Shadow Souls carry them."
"Shadow Souls have a skill called Shadow Shift that can transport the Destruction Mushroom to the center of a distant group of monsters. This way, they avoid injuring themselves while causing maximum damage."
"Sounds like a good idea!" Zhong Feng nodded immediately. "I'll have the Shadow Soul units come over to collect them."
Zhong Feng then extended the idea further, "Apart from angels and Shadow Souls, Frost Dragons and Flame Phoenixes also have small storage spaces. Why don't we have them carry some plants that can enhance their strength?"
"Of course, that's possible."
Over the next few minutes, Su Yu and Zhong Feng selected suitable plants from Tsushima Island and Busan.
After some discussion, they decided to give the Frost Dragons Clover and the Flame Phoenixes Ice Mushrooms.
Frost Dragons have high health and strong defenses, but their only drawback is their slow flight speed. Wearing Clover on their backs, the plants can blow wind backward, providing a forward thrust to speed up their flight.
Flame Phoenixes, on the other hand, have very low health and defenses. The enemy monster groups include many assassin-type and high-mobility warrior-type monsters. Wearing Ice Mushrooms can slow down or even freeze a group of monsters, making it harder for the Phoenixes to be killed.
After deciding on the plants, Zhong Feng led the main forces to collect them, while Su Yu returned to the Grand Cultivators' team to continue discussing tactics.
During the tactical discussion, the Grand Cultivators unanimously identified a weak point: their key figures could be targeted.
The monsters in the enemy groups are fearless, and Zhong Feng's main forces are also fearless. However, Su Yu, Zhong Feng, and the Grand Cultivators cannot afford to be sacrificed—not a single one can die.
The commander behind the monster groups is surely aware of this.
If they focus their attacks on Su Yu, Zhong Feng, and the Grand Cultivators without regard for their own losses, the presence of the Grand Cultivators could not only fail to significantly impact the battle but also become a burden to the entire army.
After much consideration, Su Yu decided to share some of the potions he had accumulated in the game to enhance the self-preservation abilities of the Grand Cultivators.
From his necklace, Su Yu took out 11 bottles of Master-Level Life Recovery Potions and 10 bottles of Master-Level Energy Potions.
He clasped his hands together and said to the Grand Cultivators, "Seniors, these are the potions I have collected in the game world."
"Eleven bottles of Life Recovery Potions can restore half of a newly ascended Sixth-Stage Cultivator's injuries in three seconds; ten bottles of Energy Potions can restore half of a newly ascended Sixth-Stage Cultivator's mana in three seconds. I want to gift these potions to you all so you can use them in critical moments."
These 21 bottles of potions represented half of Su Yu's total savings; he only had about 40 Master-Level potions in total.
But Su Yu wasn't bothered by the loss of the potions.
He knew there were several hidden quests in the game that rewarded golden potions. If he spent a day or two on those quests, he could easily replenish his stock.
The effect of giving these potions to the Great Cultivators was immeasurable.
The 21 Great Cultivators present could, without a doubt, recover to the Seventh Rank Fusion Stage within eight months.
Great beings like Senior Yang could even recover to the Great Ascension Stage, which would have a significant impact on the entire war.
If these potions could save a Great Cultivator's life in a critical moment, it would be more than worth it!
That's why Su Yu decided to share the potions.
Seeing the potion vials in Su Yu's hands, the Great Cultivators were deeply moved.
Most of them had been following the game and knew the value of these potions, which could save a life in a pinch.
While everyone had their own means of self-preservation, who wouldn't want more?
All the Great Cultivators looked at Su Yu with admiration and gratitude.
However, the Grand Emperor shook his head slightly. "We appreciate your kindness, Young Friend Su Yu, but the world of cultivation is built on the principle of 'equal exchange.' We can't just take your potions for free. Besides, the spiritual energy we've been absorbing was all obtained by you when you attacked the spring. We haven't even repaid that favor yet!"
The other Great Cultivators chimed in:
"Grand Emperor is right."
"We can't just take your things for free."
"Little Friend Su, how about I trade you a treasure for the potions?"
Su Yu thought for a moment and smiled. "How about this..."
He explained his idea of absorbing all the spiritual energy from the monsters' deaths in this battle to break through to the Seventh Rank.
Finally, he said earnestly, "Everyone has contributed to this battle, and the spiritual energy should be shared equally. Now, I'm giving you the potions, and in return, I ask for the spiritual energy. What do you think?"
The Great Cultivators exchanged glances and all nodded in agreement.
While the value of the potions might not match the spiritual energy, they felt indebted to Su Yu and readily agreed.
Su Yu distributed the potions to the Great Cultivators, and everyone continued preparing for the battle.
Time ticked by.
The Tsushima Strait is about 120 kilometers wide, and it would take the monster horde about an hour and a half to cross.
Finally, after one hour and fifteen minutes, Su Yu and a few other highly perceptive Great Cultivators detected the approaching monster horde.
"The monsters are 10 kilometers from the coast. Ascend and prepare for battle!"
At Zhong Feng's command, the main forces, already prepared, quickly rose into the air.
The Frost Giant Dragon flapped its massive wings, the Flame Phoenix let out a piercing cry, the Shadow Wraith's eyes glowed with a sinister green light, and the Holy Angel's Judgment Sword shimmered with holy light.
These high-tier units adjusted to their peak state, ready for battle.
The Great Cultivators also ascended quickly, forming a pentagram-shaped formation in the air.
This was a tactic they had discussed before the battle. They would form the formation and unleash powerful spells to strike first, giving the monster horde a taste of their might.
Infinite energy converged at the center of the pentagram, focusing on Senior Yang.
The vertical eye in the center of Yang's forehead opened once again, preparing the spell as he waited for the monsters to enter range.
Finally, after four minutes, the monster horde reached a distance of 5 kilometers from the coast, entering the range of the Great Cultivators.
