Chapter 961: Chapter 944 Cultivating Jian Mu and Refining Elixir!

Mountain and River Herb Garden.

"Master."

Luli’s figure startled into existence, then she perched on Xiao Chen’s shoulder, with her two White Jade-like little legs dangling, gently kicking Xiao Chen’s chest, seeming extremely happy.

"Luli, how are things? Have you had a good harvest these past few days?" Seeing Luli’s demeanor, Xiao Chen naturally understood that the trade in the Ancient Desolation World had likely been fruitful.

After all, such places for trade in the entire Border Wasteland appeared suddenly and were bound to attract attention from all sides.

"Master, in just three days’ time, the tribe has already gathered a hundred thousand strands of blood energy."

Luli’s voice resounded, immediately filling Xiao Chen with immense joy; this harvest was many times more than what the Gu Yuan Tribe could gain from hunting alien species.

"Come, let’s go see Elder Qing and see how things are."

Suddenly, Xiao Chen seemed to remember something and said to Luli before his figure disappeared.

The nine-layer Blood Fusion Tower was specifically designed to refine alien blood and bones into blood energy. Luli had specially isolated this space; upon entering, one was greeted with a thick scent of blood.

Even this blood scent was mixed with the intense Cold Darkness and dark power, all of which were seeping out from the Blood Fusion Tower.

"Husband, you’ve come?" Mu Qing’s voice soon rang out.

"How goes it, Qing Er?" Xiao Chen responded immediately.

"Husband, let me tell you some good news. The remains from the Blood Fusion Tower after refining the alien flesh and blood can also be used as an ingredient for the Divine Tree’s nurturing elixir!"

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen couldn’t help but show a smile.

The alien corpses put into the nine-layered Blood Fusion Tower and refined into blood energy left behind most of the alien remnants, which had absorbed all the blood poison and darkness of their species and were not suitable for warriors to refine and absorb.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Chen had figured out the reason. Spiritual Wood inherently had a purifying effect, and even the most toxic bodies could be cleansed and absorbed by it, transforming into nutrients for its own growth.

Soon, Xiao Chen saw Qing Jingmu, who was in a state of disarray but with undisguised excitement in his eyes.

Xiao Chen didn’t fully understand the profession of a Spirit Plant Master, only knowing it was one that turned decay into a miracle, and Old Man Qing Jingmu, from the Mulin Aristocratic Family and the Azure Lotus lineage, was inherently adept in the mysteries of the Dao of Wood, a naturally born Spirit Plant Master.

"Chieftain, the Spirit Plant Master who could devise this divine tree nurturing secret method must be a powerful being. I had never thought that the path of spirit plants could be so uniquely explored!"

"To be able to transform decay into a miracle in such a way, bringing out all the negative energy in the flesh and blood and converting it into nourishment for the Spiritual Root."

In front of Xiao Chen, there was a huge blood pool, which was continuously churning with blood bubbles arising and rolling about.

Splosh!

Remnants of the refined alien species kept being thrown into the pool, accompanied by the pervasive aura of Cold Darkness.

However, as the old man continued to cast spells, the Cold Darkness in the blood pool slowly began to recede.

At this moment, Xiao Chen couldn’t help but feel fortunate for having brought back a Spirit Plant Master. Without one, even if they had the secret method, concocting the nutrient elixir wouldn’t be so straightforward.

Xiao Chen was in no hurry and watched Qing Jingmu work busily for several hours along with Mu Qing.

"Chieftain, the first batch of nutrient elixir is complete," finally, Qing Jingmu turned around and indicated to Xiao Chen.

"Good, follow me," Xiao Chen nodded and led the way.

At the same time, the huge blood pool also rose into the air and appeared in another space along with Xiao Chen.

In this space was an enormous Divine Tree reaching into the sky, its branches and leaves so lush they completely covered the sky overhead like a canopy. The trunk alone was five hundred feet in diameter.

Hum!

Upon seeing Xiao Chen’s arrival, the immense Divine Tree suddenly shook, the rustling of its leaves filling the space, and even the vague sound of a divine bird’s cry could be perceived.

This Divine Tree was Jian Mu, which Xiao Chen had moved into the Mountain River Seal years before. It had recovered from the injuries to its spirit inflicted by the Blood Moon Wolf Ancestor and had grown even more solid.

Although Jian Mu was still young, it was sentient, and since Xiao Chen often visited, the tree was very familiar with Xiao Chen’s presence.

Hum!

Soon, on the large Jian Mu, a crystalline golden figure appeared, a golden divine bird, its form constantly changing: now it had golden wings spread wide for flight, now it transformed into a large fish covered with scale armor, tumbling and surging.

Compared with the tree spirit Xiao Chen had seen inside Jian Mu on a previous occasion, the current tree spirit was even more lively and intelligent.

The golden figure continued to show itself among any part of Jian Mu’s branches and leaves, issuing repeated roars and gesturing to Xiao Chen.

Boom!

Soon the immense blood pool settled in front of Jian Mu. The golden tree spirit descended toward the blood pool but seemed tentative, circling several nearby branches.

The crystals in the blood pool shimmered with endless energy essence, making the tree spirit feel a great longing. Xiao Chen couldn’t help but chuckle; although this Jian Mu had grown for tens of thousands of years, its spiritual intelligence was just like that of a human infant.

"Little one." Soon, Xiao Chen’s figure advanced, coming beside the blood pool and looking at the golden creature.

Chirp!

It was a soul fluctuation that turned into the cry of a divine bird within Xiao Chen’s Soul Sea, the golden spirit of the Jian Mu standing on the branches, gazing back at Xiao Chen from not too far away.

From afar, it looked exactly like a true Nine Heavens Kunpeng!

After a moment, the golden figure landed in Xiao Chen’s hand.

"Little one, absorb this nourishment and grow quickly!" Xiao Chen wanted to caress the little one in his hand, but his hand passed right through; the spirit of the Jian Mu was still quite ethereal and had not condensed into a solid form.

Boom!

Hearing Xiao Chen’s words, the golden creature tilted its head, quickly understanding. The next moment, the blood pool burst apart, and a tree root as thick as ten fathoms burst out from underground, piercing through the blood pool that was dozens of fathoms in size.

Whish whish whish!

In an instant, the blood-colored energy flowed all over the ground.

Hum hum hum!

The next second, on the ground, this splashing blood-colored energy seeped into the ground at a visible rate, disappearing without a trace.

Rustle rustle!

At this moment, the Jian Mu’s several hundred zhang tall trunk trembled, the leaves rustling, and even the whole tree exuded a divine brilliance, otherworldly and extraordinary.

Chirp chirp chirp!

As the Jian Mu absorbed, the golden tree spirit that initially landed in Xiao Chen’s hand also rose into the air, dancing and roaring in the Sky Vault.

A divine and vivid Nine Heavens Kunpeng!

After nearly half an hour passed, there was no trace of the nutritious liquid on the ground, and the divine brilliance on the Jian Mu also began to slowly diminish.

Even after absorbing so much energy, there was no significant change to the Jian Mu; an amount of energy that would have exploded even legendary strong ones had only made the Jian Mu’s divine radiance flicker slightly.

The same tree spirit, transformed into a Nine Heaven Kunpeng, streaked past Xiao Chen and plunged into the Ancient tree, clearly ready for a thorough absorption.

Although Xiao Chen already anticipated this rather uneventful scene, he still couldn’t help feeling a bit of regret. It was a long and arduous road to elevate the Divine Tree to the level of a King Wood.

This was a true Divine Tree, and at its full growth, its branches would be like mountain ranges, towering into the clouds!

However, to let it grow to such a level, one couldn’t imagine how much exotic blood and bone would be needed to build it up!

"Husband, can the Jian Mu spirit really eat that much?" Seeing Xiao Chen’s expression, Mu Qing asked with a silly smile, naturally noticing that the Jian Mu had absorbed such a huge amount of energy with little change and feeling quite astonished herself.

No wonder, even after tens of thousands of years, the Jian Mu was still in its juvenile stage.

"Master, the Jian Mu is truly a Divine Tree. It can be traced back to the beginning of the Desolate Wilds when spiritual beings were born. To cultivate it, naturally, a vast amount of resources is needed."

Yet Elder Qing Jingmu also wore a smile. To personally nurture a Divine Tree, even to the point of elevating it to King Wood, would be an extraordinary honor!

"Let’s go."

A few breaths later, Xiao Chen sighed. Thankfully, now there was the Ancient Desolation World, with an endless supply of exotic flesh and bones to nourish the Divine Tree. As long as the exotics were not extinct, there would be no shortage of flesh and energy!

One day, the Jian Mu would ascend to King Wood, and the Gu Yuan Tribe would have a King Wood as its anchor!

Suddenly, Xiao Chen and several other figures disappeared from the space, leaving only the Jian Mu, its branches occasionally rustling, energy slowly flowing through the entire Jian Mu’s trunk and leaves.

In the Cave Heaven Medicine Garden.

Xiao Chen and Mu Qing’s figures gradually emerged. Xiao Chen needed to refine some elixirs for his disciples, and now with the Gu Yuan Tribe possessing an accumulation of one hundred thousand Dao blood energies, it was enough to elevate several disciples in the Martial Realm.

"Husband, what kind of elixirs do we need to refine?" Mu Qing asked softly.

The disciples each needed different elixirs, and this was why Xiao Chen brought Mu Qing along to help refine them.

Xiao Chen planned to elevate all his disciples to the level of venerable masters. Although this seemed somewhat hasty, there were continuous battles ahead that would give them the opportunity to polish their inflated realms and temper themselves.

Soon, Xiao Chen began to tell Mu Qing about the types of elixirs needed for refinement. While his disciples needed different elixirs, one thing was the same for all – they needed elixirs that would enhance their spirits.

Xiao Chen was very familiar with this type of elixir, the Nine Revolutions Divine Soul Pill. Of course, given the current state of his disciples, Six Revolutions Divine Soul Pills would already be sufficient.

There were also some that could enhance the physical realm. Although his disciples did not all cultivate the path of physical body, under the subtle influence of Xiao Chen, his disciples also placed great importance on the physical body. Though not to the extent of true body-cultivating warriors, they were definitely stronger than their peers!
