Chapter 445: Chapter 353: Billionfold Return, Phoenix Fruit! (4K)_2
"Such astonishing True Qi."
Lu Changsheng felt that the Phoenix Fire Lotus Qi could even injure the Three Souls and Seven Spirits, and he was secretly shocked.
The Phoenix Fruit truly lived up to its reputation as a sixteenth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, allowing the Fire Lotus Qi to meld with a wisp of Phoenix True Fire, transforming the Fire Lotus Qi into Phoenix Fire Lotus Qi.
Lu Qinglian also had the eighteenth-grade Nirvana Flames Red Lotus as her main treasure.
Once Lu Qinglian's realm was elevated to a Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal, Lu Changsheng could even bestow the eighteenth-grade Merit Golden Lotus to Lu Qinglian. By then, with Lu Qinglian wielding both the eighteenth-grade Nirvana Flames Red Lotus and Merit Golden Lotus using Phoenix Fire Lotus Qi, her magical power would be boundless, likely unmatched in the realm of Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortals.
With Lu Changsheng's help, Lu Qinglian took three days and nights to fully digest the Phoenix Fruit, and the Phoenix Fire Lotus Qi finally took shape.
Lu Qinglian spread out her palm, and a golden-red fire lotus appeared, with the shadow of a phoenix soaring within.
If this Phoenix Fire Lotus hit an expert at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, even they would be in a tough spot.
"Master, do you have any more of these fruits?"
Lu Qinglian ceased her cultivation practices, and the Phoenix Fire Lotus disappeared as she looked at Lu Changsheng eagerly.
The Phoenix Fruit was so delicious, she wanted to eat another one.
Lu Changsheng rolled his eyes. Did she really think sixteenth-grade Phoenix Fruits were common fruit?
He gave the twelfth-grade Fire Serpent Fruit as a reward, which triggered a billion-fold return, only to obtain the Phoenix Fruit.
"Master doesn't have any more Phoenix Fruits, but here are two Fire Serpent Fruits for you. Go and cultivate."
Lu Changsheng fobbed her off with two Fire Serpent Fruits.
Anyway, for Lu Qinglian, consuming Fire Serpent Fruits wasn't a waste of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures but would actually translate into genuine cultivation progress, making her Martial King Divine Physique even more powerful.
In terms of treatment, Lu Qinglian wasn't much worse off than those Holy Sons and Holy Maidens from sacred places.
[Ding, you have given your disciple Lu Qinglian the twelfth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure "Fire Serpent Fruit," and received a thirty-fold Disciple Training Reward: thirteenth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure "Earth Fire Fruit."]
[Ding, you have given your disciple Lu Qinglian the twelfth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure "Fire Serpent Fruit," and received a thirty-fold Disciple Training Reward: thirteenth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure "Earth Fire Fruit."]
[Earth Fire Fruit: A rare fruit grown beside Earth Fire, which has absorbed the power of Earth Fire. It contains fire poison and is not recommended for cultivators without a Fire Spirit Root.]
Giving two Fire Serpent Fruits only resulted in a thirty-fold return this time.
It seems like the billion-fold return has exhausted today's share of luck.
There are also rewards for bestowing a thirteenth-grade Earth Fire Fruit to a disciple.
"Right, I also have an Earth Fire Fruit here."
Lu Changsheng wanted to know what rewards the system would give for bestowing the Earth Fire Fruit.
[Ding, you have given your disciple Lu Qinglian the thirteenth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure "Earth Fire Fruit," and received a hundred-fold Disciple Training Reward: fourteenth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure "Earth Core Fruit."]
[Earth Core Fruit: A rare fruit grown in the center of Earth Fire, which has absorbed a great amount of the power of Earth Fire. It contains fire poison and is not recommended for cultivators without a Fire Spirit Root.]
It seems Fire Serpent Fruit, Earth Fire Fruit, and Earth Core Fruit are all the same type of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures which can enhance the Spiritual Energy of cultivators with a Fire Spirit Root.
Of course, these spirit fruits are inferior to the Phoenix Fruit, which can directly transform Fire Lotus Qi.
"Hehe, thank you, Master."
Lu Qinglian, holding the two Fire Serpent Fruits and Earth Fire Fruit, munched on them while walking out.
"Qianqian, come out."
Lu Changsheng noticed that his eighth disciple, Ning Qianqian, was hiding off to the side, almost drooling on the floor, so he called Ning Qianqian out.
"Master has discovered me."
Ning Qianqian stuck out her tongue and sat obediently in front of Lu Changsheng, waiting for her Master to give her a reward.
Lu Changsheng reluctantly gave Ning Qianqian two Fire Serpent Fruits and an Earth Fire Fruit too.
The system returned two Earth Fire Fruits and an Earth Core Fruit.
After all, the Phoenix Fruit is a sixteenth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, with an extremely low chance of return.
These two gluttonous disciples are truly like gold-devouring beasts, having consumed quite a lot of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
This also means that Lu Qinglian and Ning Qianqian have exceptional foundations, and their future achievements are boundless.
After sending Ning Qianqian away, Lu Changsheng called over his ninth disciple, Dugu Aotian.
Lu Changsheng had obtained a Demon Blood Stone from the Treasure Pavilion at Zhengsheng Mountain, and he was very curious to know what treasures could be returned for bestowing the Demon Blood Stone.
"This Demonic Qi is exceptionally pure, the blood of an Ancient Great Demon indeed."
Dugu Aotian, having received the Demon Blood Stone, was also taken aback by its pure Demonic Qi.
Just a single drop of demon blood possessed such magical power, it was hard to imagine what kind of being its owner must have been.
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Dugu Aotian with the "Demon Blood Stone" and have received an eight million times return reward for mentoring: "Demon Marshal's Blood."]
[Demon Marshal's Blood: A drop of the Ancient Demon Marshal's blood.]
As expected, the Demon Blood Stone was extraordinary, this time the system returned the Demon Marshal's Blood.
Inside Lu Changsheng's body appeared a Purple Gold Bagua Gourd sealed with talismans, containing only a drop of demon blood.
However, this drop of demon blood, unlike the blood from the Demon Blood Stone which had been depleted over countless years, was almost completely intact and extremely terrifying.
Lu Changsheng dared not tear open the talismans, otherwise, this drop of demon blood might erode his Dantian Qi Sea.
"Demon Marshal?"
When Lu Changsheng saw the origin of this drop of demon blood, he silently took note of the name of this Ancient Great Power.
"Are you confident in refining the demon blood from the Demon Blood Stone?"
Lu Changsheng worried that Dugu Aotian would not be able to withstand the might of the demon blood.
"It's worth a try."
Dugu Aotian activated his Demonic Cultivation Skills and extracted the demon blood from the Demon Blood Stone.
A small drop of demon blood was drawn out by Dugu Aotian and merged into his body.
Dugu Aotian let out a low growl, his eyes blood red.
Although the Demon Marshal's blood from the Demon Blood Stone had been through countless years, the residual Demonic Might was still terrifying. Dugu Aotian, with his initial Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivation, nearly suffered from deviation.
Lu Changsheng hurriedly used his Xuanqing Qi to help Dugu Aotian stabilize his mind.
Not only that, Lu Changsheng also took out the thirteenth-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure "Ice Lotus Immortal Dew," a gift from Shangguan Zhao'er, to help Dugu Aotian guard his true self and avoid deviating.
Ice Lotus Immortal Dew dripped onto Dugu Aotian's forehead, creating ripples, as the blood-red color in his eyes gradually returned to clarity, starting to refine the demon blood.
The Demon Marshal's original fragment within the demon blood was absorbed by Dugu Aotian, making his Demonic Qi stronger.
While helping Dugu Aotian stabilize his Path Comprehension, Lu Changsheng probed the fragment of the Demon Marshal's origin contained in this small droplet of demon blood.
Lu Changsheng's Divine Sense was like entering a wilderness, where a tremendously majestic Demonic Body stood between heaven and earth, waving a Demonic Banner that obscured the sun, and myriad Demon Shadows surged as the stars of the heavens shattered.
This mighty Demonic Body looked towards Lu Changsheng. Before Lu Changsheng could clearly see his figure, his gaze was already shattering Lu Changsheng's vision!
"What is this? How can there be such a terrifying being? Could it be that this figure, which spans across the heavens, is the owner of the demon blood?"
Lu Changsheng's Divine Sense returned to the real world, his Daoist Robe soaked with sweat.
The one known as the Demon Marshal, commanding myriad Demon Shadows, was truly fearsome; he might be the most powerful existence Lu Changsheng had ever encountered.
The Demon Blood Stone originated from the Nine Nether Forbidden Land; could it be that the Demon Marshal perished there?
Lu Changsheng shook his head.
Such a level of Great Expert was not something Lu Changsheng should be concerned with.
Dugu Aotian absorbed the Demon Marshal's origin fragment, his Demonic Qi stronger, the shadow of the Demon Ancestor appeared in the skies above Changqing Cave, overlooking all living beings.
Lu Changsheng had laid down a formation in advance to shield the aura of Changqing Cave.
After all, Dugu Aotian was a demonic cultivator. If the commotion he caused was too astonishing, it would inevitably lead to unnecessary trouble.
At the Palace of Seeking Talents, Elder Qian led a group of disciples to personally welcome the disciple from the Ancient Han Family who had come to Zhengsheng Sect for experience.
"Elder Han, your cave abode is the Bone Spirit Cave on Azure Dragon Peak."
Elder Qian was somewhat ingratiating to the other party.
Han Jie, a descendant of the Ancient Han Family, now a Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal with countless treasures, came to Zhengsheng Sect for cultivation experience.
If they could get on good terms with the Ancient Han Family because of this, it would be beneficial for Zhengsheng Sect.
"I am here for the special item of Zhengsheng Sect—the Enlightenment Tea, hoping to use it to step into the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm in one fell swoop."
Confident in his identity as a descendant of the Ancient Cultivator Clan, Han Jie was forthright with Elder Qian.
He was expelled from Jing Long Immortal Temple by Qingyue Fairy and returned to his family to seek support from his branch's ancestor, thereby smoothly gaining the ancestor's support to come to Zhengsheng Sect for enlightenment.
Elder Qian said, "The Enlightenment Tea is extremely rare. Unless you become one of our Supreme Elders of Zhengsheng Sect, you will have to win in the upcoming Nine Veins Martial Meeting to get a leaf of the Enlightenment Tea."
"I will obtain that leaf of Enlightenment Tea," Han Jie said confidently, certain that once he successfully entered the realm of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, he would eventually return to Jinglong Mountain for revenge. Even if Lu Changsheng fled to the Ends of the Earth, it would be in vain.
