Shen Yanxiao frowned slightly. Why was it that after he heard all that, he couldn't help but think this was a very dangerous plant? But why is this plant mixed in this pile of herbs? He looked into the drawer again that contained the White Marsh Herbs. That White Swamp Potion seemed to be no different from the ordinary White Swamp Potion.
"Is this thing really that dangerous?" Ouyang Huanyu had helped Yun Qi with the Blood Feast Potion that required the White Swamp Potion. If Ye Qing and the others were unaware of the difference between the Demon Spirit plant and the White Swamp Potion, and were to put it into the Blood Feast Potion, could it harm Yun Qi?
Shen Yanxiao was considering whether to destroy this thing immediately. Otherwise, if what Xiu said was real, then whether it was Ye Qing or Yun Qi, it was possible that the Demon Spirit plant could injure both of them.
Yun Qi was his benefactor and master, and he also thanked Ye Qing. He didn't want to see any of them get hurt.
Shen Yanxiao might be a heartless person, but she had great respect for the elders who cared deeply for her.
This also happened when he learned the art of stealing. Back then, he was just an unknown little man in the organization, and he could become a victim of the organization at any time. If the previous Godly Thief in the organization disliked him and taught him his stealing skills, he was afraid that he could not become the world-famous Godly Thief.
Shen Yanxiao had great respect for her master who had taught her the art of stealing.
His master once told him that as an unscrupulous person living in darkness, everything can be abandoned, except loyalty to his master.
Shen Yanxiao remembered her words very clearly.
To him, even if a master only thought about it for one day, he already considered them to be his father for life. This was a principle he had always held.
Xiu said, If used to make medicine and potions, it would be the most terrifying poison. With the achievement of human medicine, there will be absolutely no cure. But, this would be the perfect plant in the entire world to captivate the demons. '
Shen Yanxiao pondered Xiu's words. He always felt that Xiu's words were always hinting at something.
“This thing can really produce dark elements? If I remember correctly, you've said before that if you want to recover your strength, you'll have to absorb the dark elements inside the crystal nucleus, you'll have to absorb the dark elements inside the crystal nucleus, and the devil itself can also produce dark elements. Can you extract it directly from them?”
The amount of crystal nuclei Xiu needed right now was simply too much. Even if he were to gather all of Long Xuan Empire's crystal cores, he was afraid that it would still be difficult to make ends meet.
If the Demon Spirit plant was so powerful, wouldn't it be better if he could use it to his own advantage?
Xiu thought for a moment before he said, Therefore, just relying on the Demon Spirit plant, I'm worried about my current strength, it's hard to utilize it. If you can find the Skeleton Flower and Inflammation Grass, and plant the three together, they can indeed replace the crystal core. Then, it only took me a month to utilize the dark elements created by the three plants and help you unlock the fourth seal.'
It only takes a month? Shen Yanxiao's eyes immediately sparkled.
Based on the current speed of collecting his crystal nucleus, it would at least take over a year before he could unseal the fourth, and this was still the case of having a sufficient number of nuclei. But due to his large gains, the number of crystal cores in the Long Xuan Empire now continued to shrink.
It could be said that someday, he might not be able to gather anything else.
If he could really gather all the plants, then he would not have to worry about the crystal nucleus. He could even use the rest of the crystal nucleus in his Purple Baron.
It was known that the number of crystal nuclei was no longer enough, so all the nuclei he had collected had already been given to Xiu. The Purple Baron had been with him for a long time, but he had never used a single core on it.
"Where can I find Skeleton Flowers and Inflammation Grass?" Shen Yanxiao could not help but be a little tempted. He only hoped that these two plants would not grow in the territory of the Demon Clan, or that he would be too tired to obtain them.
Xiu thought then said, I'm not sure where this plant is distributed in the human world. I only know that Skeleton Flowers are generally grown where demons gather, and there should be enough corpses to be used as nutrients for the growth of Skeleton Flowers. As for Inflammation Grass, it was planted in the Phoenix's nest.'
"Phoenix?" Shen Yanxiao blinked her eyes. The Phoenix in this world was not the same as the one in his memory. The Phoenix here is also some kind of magical beast. But according to the book records, the rarity of this beast could match the Phoenix he knew.
“The rank of Phoenix does not seem to be high, so if I find it, I will give it a try.” Shen Yanxiao touched her chin. The book noted that the Phoenix was about a rank eight or nine beast. If it was only a high-level magical beast, he now had the Vermilion Bird, this rank twelve Mythological Beast. Isn't it easy to deal with the Phoenix?
But at this moment, it was as if a basin filled with cold water was poured all over Shen Yanxiao's body.
'Rank eight or nine Phoenix? Are you talking about a child who has just been born? Phoenix had the power of rank eight from birth, until adulthood would be promoted directly to over ten ranks. Even if it was almost on par with the Vermilion Bird, the Phoenix possessed the natural trait of being reborn. If their place of death was surrounded by a powerful fire element, they would not only be reborn, but also break through from rank twelve directly to rank thirteen, becoming a legendary Holy Beast. '
“Rank thirteen ... Holy Beast?” Shen Yanxiao swallowed her saliva. He could not imagine the power of the Holy Beast.
Vermillion Bird had the strength of rank twelve, and he could already destroy all the ferocious beasts in the continent without any pressure.
A Mythological Beast was enough to make the Shen family rise from a small and unknown clan into a powerful force that aided the Emperor of Long Xuan Empire in establishing a state. Then, if it was a Holy Beast…
Shen Yanxiao turned her head to look at the side of Vermilion Bird whose arms were folded in her chest. He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Vermillion Bird, how does your strength compare to a Holy Beast?"
Vermilion Bird frowned slightly. He was a bit reluctant to mumble, “Are you kidding me? Making me compare myself, a Mythological Beast to a Sacred Beast, it was the same as comparing that high-level magical beast to myself.
high-level magical beasts and Mythological Beasts …
Shen Yanxiao remembered that Shen Feng did not even look him in the eye when he gifted a rank two eight magical beast to invite the Sage of Gods Domain in awakening the Vermilion Bird. If it wasn't difficult to capture a rank eight magical beast, Shen Feng wouldn't have been depressed and sent over ten heads for the task at all.
This was the difference between a high-level magical beast and a Mythological Beast. And with this, one could also indirectly guess the difference between a Holy Beast and a Mythological Beast.
Shen Yanxiao's mouth twitched slightly. A newborn had a high level eight rank magical beast, then when it became an adult, it would have a level of Mythological Beast. When he met a powerful fire element and was reborn, he would become a legendary Holy Beast. He now felt that obtaining the Inflammation Grass from his nest was a very frightening process.
As long as they could pinpoint the exact location, then the Skeleton Flower was not hard to come by. The only problem was the Inflammation Grass, getting it completely…
It's very hard.
Shen Yanxiao sighed and said, “Did everything follow the will of destiny? We cannot say for sure that we cannot get it, maybe we have a chance. But I wonder, if you can get these three types of plants, would you be able to use them to catch demons?
The only reason why he was interested in the competition between every academy of Long Xuan Empire after half a year was entirely because of Xiu.
Since combining the Demon Spirit Plant with the other two can produce dark elements, then does that mean they do not need to capture demons?
However, Xiu's reply only made Shen Yanxiao even more distressed.
'The devil is still needed. These three plants can indeed produce dark elements, but the effects of these three plants are maximized in the gathering place of demons. Demons relied on the dark elements they produced and the Demon Spirit Plant needed a demonic scent to increase its growth. The Devil Spirit Plant in your hand is just a young plant and the dark elements it can produce are limited. Only after it develops can it produce dark elements in large piles.'
So... does that mean he still needs to enter the competition after six months?
Shen Yanxiao sighed helplessly. The responsibilities placed on his body had increased, and it seemed like unsealing this would take a long time.
The revolution has not succeeded, and friends still need to work hard[1]. At the same time, he also had to continue working hard to reach the level of the Honorable Apothecary Master to concoct the Blood Feast Potion and resolve the Yun Qi matter.
“Let's do this slowly, okay? First, I will take out this Demon Spirit plant.” Shen Yanxiao's big eyes were emitting something. In his head, he had already thought of a plan.
Since the Holy Roland School had mistaken the Demon Spirit plant as the White Swamp Potion, then he would only take advantage of this situation and take this Demon Spirit plant. Otherwise, if others were to take it and use it, not only would they fail in concocting potions, but they would also waste a rare Demon Spirit plant.
It should be known that after the war between Gods and Demons, demons had retreated to the underworld, and for many years, no one knew where the Demon Clan lived. Their location became more difficult than finding Heaven, which also made it impossible to find a second Demon Spirit plant.
After getting the idea, Shen Yanxiao immediately gripped the Demon Spirit Plant in her hand tightly. Vermilion Bird reluctantly pulled himself into his body before he went to the door to exit.
The mentor was waiting outside the door of the Pharmaceutical Warehouse and was surprised to see Shen Yanxiao's figure for a moment.
He had only been inside for two or three hours – half of the time given to him.
He really came out so early.
Previously, Shangguan Xiao had been in the Pharmaceutical Warehouse a few times, and he was only going to leave at the last minute. This kid, why is he so fast?
The mentor was very confused looking at Shen Yanxiao before he kindly reminded her, “Have you already chosen the medicinal herb you wanted? The Pharmaceutical Warehouse had many medicinal herbs and no shortage of precious herbs. You still have plenty of time left before your time runs out. Choose slowly and carefully. This opportunity only comes once a month, ah!”
There were at least ten thousand medicinal herbs in the warehouse, it was impossible to see them all in just a short period of time.
Unfortunately, Shen Yanxiao was not an ordinary person. Although she could not see all the medicinal plants in a short period of time, she had a Mythological Beast, Vermilion Bird, that could find treasures for her.
Shen Yanxiao slightly smiled and said, "No need, I have already chosen what I want," Shen Yanxiao said while showing the Demon Spirit plant to the mentor. He was waiting for the mentor's reaction.
[1] The immediate meaning is that the problem is still not finished and they still have to keep fighting.
