Chapter 338: Mixed Spirit Grass
"But opportunities are determined by heaven. We cultivators are not necessarily able to achieve great success just because we have good aptitude." Immediately afterwards, Wu Daozi's words put Xiao Lin's heart at ease.
"My disciple can achieve what he has today. In addition to the love of the master, it is mostly luck. It is not worth mentioning." Xiao Lin said.
"Hehe, I still know Su Qingyun. Although he has a cold face every day, he is not a bad person. He is also upright. He never speaks harshly to the old guys in the sect who have families to support. Even I admire this."
"And he loves his disciples even more. He is not stingy in teaching them in cultivation. Hehe, in our cultivation world, there are not many good people like Su Qingyun." Wu Daozi shook his head and commented on Su Qingyun.
But when Xiao Lin heard this, he did not feel disgusted. On the contrary, he felt that his master Su Qingyun was indeed as Wu Daozi said. He did not know about outsiders, but he was very caring towards him.
Just the 30,000 low-grade spirit stones and the rare lapis lazuli material given to him before the retreat were enough to make Xiao Lin grateful to his master.
"It is a blessing for Xiao Lin to be able to become a disciple of the master." Xiao Lin said sincerely.
Hearing this, Wu Daozi looked at Xiao Lin with some surprise, and there was also a hint of approval in his eyes.
"Okay, no more nonsense. I heard from Tao Ling that you accidentally got a set of ancient third-level pill recipe?"
"Yes, I accidentally bought it at an auction in Zi Ri Xian City in the Southern Territory. Maybe this ancient pill recipe can't be made in the current cultivation world, so there are very few bidders."
"I have always been very interested in alchemy, so I gritted my teeth and bought it. But after buying this pill recipe, I regretted it?"
"Hehe, but I found that most of the spiritual medicines in this pill recipe are not even heard of by you, and even if you have heard of a few of them, they are already rare and difficult to find?" Wu Daozi took over Xiao Lin's words and said.
"It is indeed as Uncle Master said. Later, I thought that Uncle Master Wu is the great alchemist of our Dancao Mountain. His alchemy skills are unprecedented and unparalleled. That's why I came here with such audacity. One is to ask Uncle Master about the origins of some of the spiritual medicines. What's the other purpose?"
"The other purpose is to ask me to help you improve the recipes, right?" Wu Daozi laughed twice and said.
"That's right." Xiao Lin said.
"Then please go back. I haven't studied the several ancient recipes in my hand thoroughly. How can I waste time on your so-called recipes? After all, studying a recipe thoroughly is extremely laborious."
"Then Xiao Lin wants to use this ancient recipe in his hand to exchange with Uncle Master for a spiritual recipe that can be used to improve his cultivation?" Xiao Lin saw Wu Daozi directly refused, and his face immediately showed an anxious expression.
"Hehe, you want to exchange a pill recipe that may not have any value for a usable one? Or a pill recipe that can improve your cultivation? Do you think this is a charity?"
"Disciple naturally doesn't think so. Disciple is willing to use this ancient pill recipe and this five-hundred-year-old third-level spiritual herb to exchange for a third-level pill recipe from Uncle Master." Wu Daozi's reaction was within Xiao Lin's expectations. The reason why his face was full of anxiety was to cover himself up.
"Third-level spiritual herb?" Wu Daozi was a little stunned. He was actually very interested in the ancient pill recipe in Xiao Lin's hand, otherwise he would not have met Xiao Lin. However, he also knew that Xiao Lin's so-called "seeking advice" was just an excuse.
In the final analysis, nine out of ten people still wanted to exchange with him for something he urgently needed, and after a previous test, he already knew that Xiao Lin wanted to get the pill recipe in his hand.
The reason why he was interested in the ancient recipes in Xiao Lin's hand was that although most of the spiritual medicines in these ancient recipes had become extinct, he could roughly judge what spiritual medicines to use to replace them through the contents inside, and it was likely to be inspired by the several ancient recipes he was currently studying.
If he could really use this to study one or two more recipes, it would undoubtedly allow his alchemy skills to go further.
However, the several third-level spiritual pill single recipes in Wu Daozi's hand were all studied by him through some ancient recipes after a hundred years. In the current cultivation world, they can be refined into finished spiritual pills.
Moreover, these recipes cost him a lot of effort. Even if the other golden pill elders in the sect came to ask for them, he never bought them. Even Xiao Lin's master Su Qingyun, he only refined a few furnaces of Yuxuan Dan for him.
Wanting to use an unusable ancient recipe to exchange for his finished pill recipe, the cunning Wu Daozi naturally refused to do it.
In fact, Wu Daozi had been planning to get the ancient recipe from Xiao Lin without paying any price. After all, such an ancient recipe would be useless to Xiao Lin. Instead of letting it rot in the bag, it would be better to give it to himself. It would be considered as a favor to him.
As for whether to repay this favor or not? Or when to repay it, it all depends on his mood. At most, he could reward him with one or two Yuxuan Pills, which would be enough to make up for it.
Xiao Lin was well aware of this. When Wu Daozi heard his intention, he flatly refused, which made Xiao Lin understand his intentions more quickly. From the beginning, Xiao Lin knew that it would be impossible to get the third-level pill formula from an old fox like Wu Daozi without paying a price.
"Third-level spiritual herbs are precious, but we have them in Dancao Mountain. Besides, ordinary third-level spiritual herbs can only be used as auxiliary pills. In fact, they are not valuable." Wu Daozi said slowly with a look of astonishment on his face.
"Master uncle is right. Actually, Xiao Lin does not know the name and origin of this spiritual herb. He picked it by chance in a mountain stream while traveling. Anyway, it is useless to me. If Master uncle likes it, I will give it to him as a token of my gratitude."
Xiao Lin smiled slightly. After he finished speaking, he took out a jade box from his bag and opened it carefully, revealing a five-leaf grass inside. At this moment, this five-leaf grass was green all over, and there was a thin thread floating in each tender leaf. The thin threads in these five tender leaves were actually five colors of green, gold, red, green and yellow.
It was extremely gorgeous, and the moment Xiao Lin opened the jade box, a faint and refreshing fragrance wafted out, and the whole mountain was shrouded in the medicinal fragrance.
This spiritual herb was taken from a charming woman many years ago when he killed her. It has been planted in the spiritual wood space. After so many years, this strange spiritual herb has grown for more than 500 years.
This is basically the growth limit of the third-level spiritual medicine, and Xiao Lin has harvested dozens of third-level spiritual herbs that have grown to their limit.
"Hun Lingcao?" Seeing the spiritual herbs in Xiao Lin's hand, Wu Daozi's eyes suddenly shone brightly, and with a slight shake, he appeared in front of Xiao Lin, which scared Xiao Lin and made him take a step back instinctively.
"Is this... really Hun Lingcao?" Wu Daozi was short, and if he really had to put his feet on the ground, he would only be between Xiao Lin's chest and abdomen, but at this moment Wu Daozi's feet were suspended in the air, just in time to be at eye level with Xiao Lin.
He stared at the spiritual herbs in Xiao Lin's hand, muttering to himself: "It is indeed Hun Lingcao, and... it is of sufficient age. The Hun Yuan Dan refined from such spiritual herbs may be more effective than Yu Xuan Dan."
Hearing this, Xiao Lin's face remained calm, but he was overjoyed in his heart. He happened to have a bottle of Yu Xuan Dan in his hand, which was given to him by his master, and the effect of Yu Xuan Dan was to improve the cultivation of cultivators above the late stage of foundation building.
Since Wu Daozi in front of him said that Hunyuan Dan was more effective than Yuxuan Dan, it goes without saying that this so-called Hunyuan Dan must also be a third-level spiritual pill that can improve cultivation.
"If this spiritual herb is useful to my uncle, I will give it to him as a sincere gift from my disciple. Besides, I don't even know the origin of the name of this spiritual herb. If it weren't for my uncle's reminder, Xiao Lin would not know it was called Hunling Grass until now." Xiao Lin smiled slightly, handed the jade box in his hand to Wu Daozi, and said.
Wu Daozi almost instinctively took the jade box from Xiao Lin, but after taking the jade box, he suddenly came to his senses and showed a helpless expression on his face.
"Hey, good boy, Su Qingyun really accepted a good disciple. Show me the ancient pill recipe you got." Wu Daozi said with a sigh.
Hearing this, Xiao Lin's face was full of surprise. He took out a white jade slip from his storage bag without hesitation and handed it to Wu Daozi respectfully.
Wu Daozi took the jade slip, put it in his palm, and then immersed himself in his mind and read it carefully.
Xiao Lin was waiting patiently beside him.
Tao Ling was confused at this moment. She looked at Xiao Lin for a while, and then at her master Wu Daozi. Her little head was a little confused, as if she couldn't understand why the two of them were so righteous even though the business was not successful.
Even Tao Ling thought that Xiao Lin's goal was going to fail, but Xiao Lin gave a very precious third-level spiritual medicine to his master Wu Daozi regardless of the past.
After Wu Daozi received this third-level spiritual medicine, he not only did not show a pleasant expression, but showed a depressed expression.
The various abnormal actions and performances of the two made Tao Ling's little head float with a circle of black balls, and her pretty face was even more stunned.
In fact, it was not surprising that Tao Ling did not understand the intentions of this pair of foxes. Wu Daozi originally wanted to obtain the third-level ancient pill formula from Xiao Lin at the lowest price.
Of course, he was reluctant to exchange the third-level pill formula in his hand with Xiao Lin.
But at this time, Xiao Lin took the initiative to give a third-level spiritual herb, and this third-level spiritual herb was the extremely rare and precious Hunling Grass. Among the third-level spiritual herbs, this Hunling Grass can definitely be ranked in the top five in terms of preciousness.
Hunling Grass is the main ingredient for refining the third-level spiritual pill Hunyuan Pill. Hunyuan Pill is a spiritual pill that can improve the cultivation of cultivators. Unlike Yuxuan Pill, Hunyuan Pill is enough to support cultivators to cultivate to the Golden Pill Great Perfection realm.
