The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine
Chapter 1313 - Chapter 1313 Chapter 1313 Planting

Chapter 1313: Chapter 1313 Planting Chapter 1313: Chapter 1313 Planting At this time, Huang Xiaolong and his companions were close to the region of the Xuanjin earth veins where the Wooden Divine Fruits were planted, yet they stayed in place without moving, all deep in contemplation.

“The metallic energy of this place is too domineering. If there weren’t many, it could be easily dealt with. But on the contrary, the density of the metallic energy is pervasive, as if there’s no place it doesn’t exist, no hole it doesn’t enter, endless and inexhaustible~~” the Sword Immortal Emperor said vehemently.

Indeed, with the tactics of someone at the Immortal Emperor level, this degree of metallic energy could be condensed into swords, hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands, and all could be fended off. But the metallic energy of the Xuanjin earth veins, how could it be limited to mere hundreds or thousands?

“Why don’t we bring out our defensive artifacts~~” the Purple Flame Immortal Emperor suggested in a deep voice. “With our immortal power, fully activating the Immortal Artifacts, we should be able to withstand it for some time. During this period, we should be able to successfully plant the Wooden Divine Fruits and gain some harvest.”

“That won’t do.” The Sword Immortal Emperor shook his head. “Using defensive Immortal Artifacts requires a continuous supply of immortal qi and power, which is a consumption in itself. Moreover, the growth of the Wooden Divine Fruit requires absorbing a significant amount of energy. It’s challenging to be distracted by multitasking.”

The Sword Immortal Emperor sent a soul transmission to the Purple Flame Immortal Emperor without changing his expression. “Purple Flame Immortal Emperor, at this point, we really need to keep some reserves. The Demon Race and the Long Clan are watching us like tigers eyeing their prey. That Huang Xiaolong is not a pushover either; if we exhaust everything to plant the Wooden Divine Fruits and end up drained to the core, we could easily be taken advantage of by schemers. We must be cautious!”

Upon hearing this, the Purple Flame Immortal Emperor let out a resigned sigh.

For a moment, they were at a loss for what to do.

The sun gradually set behind the western hills, and a hazy twilight covered the entire Wood Planet, as if a layer of poetic and picturesque light gauze had been draped over this botanical celestial body.

“Huang Xiaolong, do you have any ideas?” the Ninth Princess of the Long Clan moved beside Huang Xiaolong and asked with a sweet voice. “I think, since you’ve been able to resist the Immortal Realm time and again and even managed to capture my sister the Seventh Princess’s heart under impossible circumstances, you must have many clever plans up your sleeve.”

“Uh, Ninth Princess, are you praising me or mocking me?” Huang Xiaolong said, somewhat at a loss for words.

“Of course, I’m praising you.” The Ninth Princess was playful and charming, quite different from the Seventh Princess’s temperament.

“Actually~~” Huang Xiaolong opened up.

At the same time, the people from the Demon Race and the Immortal Realm couldn’t help but to divert their attention to Huang Xiaolong, listening to what he had to say.

Huang Xiaolong didn’t avoid them, confidently explaining, “This region of the Xuanjin earth veins is vast. Within it, metallic energy crisscrosses, sparing nothing. However~~I believe, in such a vast area, there must be some parts where the metallic energy is weaker and has trouble reaching.”

“Oh! I see!” The Ninth Princess’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Huang Xiaolong, you mean, in some areas, the metallic energy is relatively sparse, and as long as we find these areas, we could focus solely on planting the Wooden Divine Fruits without having to expend too much energy and effort defending against the metallic energy’s attacks!”

Huang Xiaolong nodded.

“Makes some sense.” The Third Crown Prince thoughtfully agreed. He was an impatient person and immediately, with a shudder of his body, thousands of lifelike dragon qi burst forth, whistling into the region of the Xuanjin earth veins.

Thousands of dragon qi, like thousands of Little Longs about ten or so zhang in length, scattered in all directions upon entering the Xuanjin earth veins region.

The metallic energy was provoked in an instant.

Puff~puff~puff~puff~~

Countless trails of metallic energy, like cunning and ferocious hunters, chased after the thousands of dragon qi, determined to eradicate them completely!

In the blink of an eye, nine out of ten dragon qi released by the Third Crown Prince were annihilated by the metallic energy after a brief deadlock, but the remaining tenth of the dragon qi faced little encirclement by the metallic energy. The occasional strands that swept through were shattered by the dragon qi.

“Hahaha!” Seeing this, the Third Crown Prince burst into laughter. “Found it! Huang Xiaolong, you truly are unparalleled in wisdom! Indeed, in this vast region of the Xuanjin earth veins, the distribution of metallic energy is strong in some areas and weak in others. Huang Xiaolong, let’s go in together; that area is relatively safe! We won’t be harmed by the metallic energy.”

“Hmm?” The two Demon Kings eyed the area chosen by the Third Crown Prince with covetous excitement. That spot was about ten or so acres where only sparse and insignificant metallic energy passed by.

“What? You dare to covet the area chosen by me, the Third Crown Prince?” The Third Crown Prince stared provocatively at the two Demon Kings.

The two Demon Kings immediately shifted their gaze away.

“Ridiculous! Third Crown Prince, do not slander others!” the Demon King scoffed contemptuously.

“Hehe~Third Crown Prince, you go ahead. I want to observe a bit more, so I won’t crowd you,” Huang Xiaolong said politely.

“Alright then, I won’t stand on ceremony. Huang Xiaolong, you can come in anytime.” The Third Crown Prince nodded cordially to Huang Xiaolong and then his body surged with dragon qi, his skin surfaced with flickering metallic lustrous dragon scales, and the Ninth Princess did the same.

The two great dragons, with their divine consciousness locked on the chosen spot, then shot across the sky as if teleporting!

As soon as they entered the region of the Xuanjin earth veins, they were met with thickly interwoven strands of metallic energy, sweeping toward them like a net.

However, both the Third Crown Prince and the Ninth Princess were of royal dragon status, their scales tougher than most celestial garments and armor in the universe, their defensive power outrageously strong.

Clang~~clang~clang~~

“`

The golden energy clashed against the dragon scales, sparking intense flashes of fire, but for a moment, it was utterly unable to breach the defense of the two great dragons. Even each slash could only leave a hair-like shallow trace upon the dragon scales.

The Third Crown Prince and the Ninth Princess did not overestimate themselves and, in the blink of an eye, reached the area they had selected.

Feet landed on the ground.

Whoosh~ Whoosh~~ Whoosh~~

A small number of about tens of golden energy streaks sliced through the air, flying towards them.

“Roar~~!” The Third Crown Prince let out a dragon roar, its sound waves rippling outwards, dissipating those dozens of golden energy streaks into disarray, carried away by the wind.

“What a great place, it truly is a great place~~ Hahaha~~~” The Third Crown Prince was overjoyed.

“Huang Xiaolong, you’re really clever–um~~ I’m complimenting you, so don’t take it the wrong way.” The Ninth Princess looked at Huang Xiaolong with delight, “Why don’t you come over too? If you’re scared, I can come get you.”

“Er~~ no need for that.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled and shook his head. Then he immediately said to the five slaves, “As expected, the distribution of golden energy in this Profound Gold vein area can’t possibly be even everywhere. Places like this, where the golden energy is weak, must be numerous.”

At this moment, the Third Crown Prince and the Ninth Princess did not dawdle. From their Storage Rings, they took out some glistening golden Wooden God fruit seeds.

“Ninth Sister, let’s try sowing these~~” The Third Crown Prince, hailed as the Long Clan’s leading talent of his generation and the son of the Dragon King, had never done such a task in his life. Moreover, the Long Clan didn’t need to cultivate crops, so at this moment, holding the Wooden God fruit seeds was a novel experience for him.

Then, the Third Crown Prince and the Ninth Princess tentatively scattered hundreds of seeds onto the bare ground, which looked like metal.

Something strange happened!

The Wooden God fruit seeds, as soon as they touched the ground, shot down into it with a whoosh!

This scene resembled a sponge absorbing water, or rather like ginseng fruit falling to the ground.

“Eh?” The Third Crown Prince issued a surprised murmur. His mind swept out and discovered that the seeds that had burrowed into the ground were around ten feet deep, seemingly embedded in the earth.

“Nourish the seeds with energy~~” The Third Crown Prince muttered to himself.

Then, dozens more golden energy streaks swept over from different directions, like autumn winds sweeping fallen leaves.

“What a nuisance!” The Third Crown Prince and the Ninth Princess released their draconic might, annihilating these dozens of golden energy streaks.

“Third Brother, let’s try infusing dragon breath into the ground, to nourish the seeds,” the Ninth Princess said eagerly.

The Third Crown Prince nodded slightly. Right away, the two great dragons tentatively released hundreds of streams of dragon breath, each stream targeting one seed, seeping into the ground, enveloping the seeds.

Under the nourishment of the dragon breath, the seeds indeed began to stir!

“Third Brother! The seeds are moving!” The Ninth Princess exclaimed with joy. “The seeds seem to have been endowed with vitality!”

Dragon breath is an energy form condensed by the great dragons, each stream connected by bloodline to the dragon itself. Now, as the dragon breath enveloped the seeds, continuously nourishing them, even the minute changes in the seed could be discerned by the two great dragons–as clear and reliable as observing patterns in one’s palm.

Seeing this, the onlookers from the Demon Race, the Immortal Realm, and Huang Xiaolong, all nodded slightly.

The entire process of planting the Wooden God fruit was indeed not complicated, in fact, it was quite simple!

“Let’s also hurry and find a safe place!” the Sword Immortal Emperor urged anxiously.

“Hahaha~~ no rush, the Long Clan can’t take the lead just yet. It’s only two dragons, after all,” the Zhi Flame Immortal Emperor stated confidently.

“Release immortal power avatars, scout ahead, and look for a safe place!” the Sword Immortal Emperor commanded.

Then, led by the two Immortal Emperors, along with the dozens of Profound Immortals, each burst forth with a stream of immortal power, each coalescing into a human silhouette, flying into the Profound Gold vein area.

The Demon Race did not lag behind; two Demon Kings and dozens of Demon Saints also sent out their demon energy to scout.

“Master, let’s also find a place to plant ours!” the five slaves requested in unison.

Huang Xiaolong smiled lightly. “That’s easy.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his hand and instantly countless talismans, like a flurry of snowflakes, flew into the Profound Gold vein area in front of them!
