The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine -
Chapter 1310 - Chapter 1310 Chapter 1310 Seed
Chapter 1310: Chapter 1310: Seed Chapter 1310: Chapter 1310: Seed Now, the key issue in this first world was that Huang Xiaolong and the others actually had only three days left!
If what the Jupiter Realm Master had said was true and that was all the Wood God Fruit that remained, it would be enough for three days’ worth of sustenance. If they didn’t open the sealed chest and retrieve the key to the next realm within these three days, all the Treasure Hunters would starve to death!
Even if you exterminated all the natives on Jupiter, it would only mean more people accompanying you in death! In the end, it’s still death!
“Ladies and gentlemen, please don’t panic,” the Realm Master said with a gentle smile. “Years ago, Lord Slaughter left behind a magic talisman that will teach you all how to proceed.”
Then, she took out an ancient talisman from her bosom.
She recited a short incantation, and the talisman spontaneously ignited.
In the midst of the miraculous light, the voice of the Slaughter Immortal Emperor, already familiar to Huang Xiaolong and the rest, resounded throughout the hall–
“Hahahaha~~ Fellow compatriots, have you safely arrived at the first realm of the Slaughter Ten Realms, the palace on Jupiter? Hahaha~~ I hope you haven’t starved along the way? Hahahaha~~~”
The voice of the Slaughter Immortal Emperor was filled with a playful tone.
This made the Sword Immortal Emperor and others gnash their teeth in hatred.
Huang Xiaolong, however, couldn’t afford the luxury of feeling resentful. He focused intently, all ears to catch every word left by the Slaughter Immortal Emperor. He knew this was not the time to hold grudges; that would be foolish. Right now, he had to analyze every sentence from the Slaughter Immortal Emperor and find the trick to successfully getting through this realm!
“Perhaps, you doubt the words of the Jupiter Realm Master. However, I can tell you clearly, there’s no need for doubt! Yes, I have sealed the key to the next realm, as well as the most precious treasure of Jupiter, inside a chest. It’s likely that you don’t have the ability to break the seal.”
The voice of the Slaughter Immortal Emperor carried a few threads of arrogance.
The seal he personally left behind was not something anyone could simply break if they wished!
“Furthermore, the Wood God Fruit on Jupiter is the only food that can sustain your lives. Hehe~~ But the Wood God Fruit on Jupiter has nearly become extinct. The few remaining Wood God Fruits can probably sustain your lives for just a few days, or maybe tens of days at most! Of course, if the number of Treasure Hunters who enter this realm is small, then they could live a little longer.”
“How do you open the seal on that chest?”
The voice of the Slaughter Immortal Emperor suddenly heightened.
Everyone held their breath! They listened!
“You need Wood God Fruit! Large amounts of Wood God Fruit!”
At these words, Huang Xiaolong and the others felt their hearts lurch…
Dammit, didn’t you say there was already a scarce amount of Wood God Fruits on Jupiter?
If there isn’t even enough to eat, where are we supposed to find extra?
“Hmm? Could it be~~” Suddenly, a flash of insight crossed Huang Xiaolong’s mind.
Seeing the sharp gleam in Huang Xiaolong’s eyes, the Third Crown Prince’s heart stirred, and he asked in a serious tone, “Huang Xiaolong, what did you think of?”
“Shhh~~~” Huang Xiaolong made a silencing gesture, signaling the Third Crown Prince not to speak up.
“Ladies and gentlemen, although there are no ready-to-eat Wood God Fruits left~~ However, there are seeds on Jupiter. Yes, seeds to cultivate the Wood God Fruit~~~” the voice of the Slaughter Immortal Emperor patiently explained. “Your task upon arriving on Jupiter is to plant the Wood God Fruit. Hmm~ The specific method, the Realm Master of this realm will tell you. By the way, a word of warning, don’t attempt to slaughter Jupiter’s creatures, otherwise, you’ll pay the price~~ Hahahaha~~~”
With that, the voice of the Slaughter Immortal Emperor finally disappeared completely.
After listening to the Immortal Emperor’s speech, the already furious and coldly murderous Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Emperor and others felt somewhat disheartened.
Since the Immortal Emperor had warned against killing any beings on Jupiter, they might as well just abide by what he said and behave themselves.
Now, the Immortal Emperor had proven that the Domain Lord wasn’t making up lies; every word she had said was true.
“So then, Domain Lord, what should we do?” the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Emperor humbled himself to ask.
“Dear Treasure Hunters,” the Domain Lord began to explain calmly, “the great one intends for all of you to receive the seeds of the Wood God Fruit here, and then go and earnestly cultivate the Wood God Fruit. The growth and maturity periods of the Wood God Fruit are very rapid. From sowing to fruition, it takes as little as one day at the quickest. However, this depends on each individual’s cultivation level. The nourishment for cultivating the Wood God Fruit is nothing else but the energy contained within all of you. Immortal power, demonic power, dragon’s breath and strength, and various energies in the universe all can be used to cultivate the Wood God Fruit. Beings with powerful energy may harvest the fruits in just one day, while those with weaker energy may need to spend more time.”
Upon hearing this, everyone understood.
The nutrients needed for the robust growth of ordinary flowers, trees, and fruits are nothing but sunlight, air, and water, or perhaps the nourishment of Spiritual Energy.
But this Wood God Fruit was unusual; it required various forms of energy.
“That’s quite simple,” mused the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Emperor as he nodded thoughtfully.
Immediately after, he exchanged a glance with the Purple Flame Immortal Emperor.
They were both Immortal Emperors with cultivation levels so high that their immortal power surged like rivers and seas. Using it to nourish some seeds was truly an overkill.
“I believe all of you will do well in cultivating a significant amount of Wood God Fruit,” the Domain Lord could not hide the hint of ecstatic joy in her eyes.
Not only the Domain Lord but also everyone in the imperial palace of Jupiter’s natives showed joy on their faces, some even trembling with excitement.
“Domain Lord, it seems that this Wood God Fruit is also very valuable to you, right?” Huang Xiaolong observed and picked up on a clue.
“Yes,” the Domain Lord admitted graciously. “We natives of Jupiter all practice wood element cultivation techniques, but we have encountered bottlenecks and must rely on the Wood God Fruit to break through. If you can cultivate the Wood God Fruit, it will not only solve the problem of hunger but will also benefit us natives enormously. Here, on behalf of all Jupiter’s citizens, I express the most sincere gratitude to all of you!”
With that, the Domain Lord stood up and bowed deeply.
All the natives in the palace followed suit, bending at a ninety-degree angle.
“That’s strange,” Xu Fu suddenly furrowed his brows. “If the Wood God Fruit is so valuable to you as well, why don’t you cultivate it yourselves?”
Xu Fu’s question struck right at the heart of the matter.
Everyone looked at the Domain Lord with puzzled expressions.
The Domain Lord smiled slightly and explained, “The cultivation of the Wood God Fruit is quite demanding. First and foremost, it requires the energy of the powerful to nurture it. And more importantly, the Wood God Fruit must grow in an area filled with metallic energy.”
Everyone understood; what she referred to as “metallic energy” was one of the five elemental energies: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
“This makes it difficult for us,” the Domain Lord said with a look of regret. “You are all giants in the path of cultivation and should understand the principle of the five elements generating and overcoming each other. As natives of Jupiter, our elemental affinity is with wood, and among the five elements, metal overcomes wood. The Wood God Fruit needs to grow in the presence of metallic energy. On Jupiter, there is a region with a vast network of Black Gold ley lines, crisscrossing like a sea. That area is the perfect place to cultivate the Wood God Fruit. But we cannot go there. Once we enter an area filled with metallic energy, we would be slaughtered on the spot.”
Yes, metal overcomes wood. Just as tools forged entirely from metal can easily saw through trees, and as lands rich with ore do not foster the growth of grass.
This was a very simple principle.
“Well then, we shall plant that Wood God Fruit!” the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Emperor immediately agreed. “Give us the seeds!”
“The rules are as follows,” the Domain Lord patiently explained. “Please leave two-tenths of each day’s harvest of Wood God Fruit as food, and hand over the remaining eight-tenths to me. Once you have submitted a total of one million Wood God Fruits, the seal on the treasure chest left by the great one will automatically break.”
