Chapter 4086: Wandu golden core fruit
Translator: 549690339
It was one thing for the tree to be deformed, but what really caught Lin Yi’s attention were the five golden core-like fruits at the top of the tree. Even under the shade, they glowed with a terrifying light.
“Brother Ling Yi, what are you doing? hurry up and pick the herbs! Although we have senior brother Chen on guard and Captain Xiao Tao in charge of restraining the spirit beasts, we still have to move quickly. If we provoke some powerful spirit beast, then all our efforts will be in vain!” Cong Zhima noticed that Lin Yi was in a daze and immediately urged him.
However, when he noticed the strange tree Lin Yi was looking at, he was stunned as well, unable to move his eyes away for a long time.
After a long time, Cong Zhima gasped and reacted. He pointed at the five shining fruits on the tree and stammered,””This … Could this be … Could this be the legendary Wandu … Golden core fruit?”
“Wandu golden core fruit?” Lin Yi blinked. He’d never heard of this name before, but judging from Cong Zhima’s expression, it must be some kind of high-level spirit herb.
Chen Muming, who was in charge of monitoring the situation, noticed the two’s strange behavior. A strange look flashed across his eyes and he immediately jumped down from the tree. However, when his eyes fell on the five fruits, his greed was still apparent.
After that, Huang xiaotao, who was wandering around, noticed that something was wrong and approached the three of them. When she saw the five golden core-like fruits, her body also froze as if she had been struck by lightning.
“Wandu golden core fruit? Was this really the Wandu golden core fruit? Junior Brother Cong Zhi MA, I remember you’ve been a probationary in the spirit medicine nursery for a while, Are you sure?” Huang xiaotao said in disbelief.
“Captain Xiao Tao, I can guarantee with my head that these five are definitely Wandu golden core fruits. As long as a golden core stage expert consumes them, they will be able to directly increase their level by one rare spiritual medicine! But if a peak Foundation Stage expert takes it, they will definitely be able to form their core. This is truly a priceless treasure!” Cong Zhima swallowed his saliva.
This time, even Lin Yi was shocked. A golden core Master directly leveling up, a Foundation Peak Master with a 100% success rate of forming the core, there was actually such a heaven-defying medicine in the world!
After a while, Huang xiaotao suppressed the excitement in her heart with great difficulty and said to the others,””This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Let’s share these Wandu golden core fruits!”
“Alright!” Chen Mingshan and Cong Zhima agreed immediately. As for Lin Yi, he naturally didn’t mind.
“But there are five Wandu golden core fruits here, and there are only four of us. It’s not easy to divide them equally, right?” Chen Mingshan immediately questioned.
On the way here, Lin Yi had already understood that in Huang xiaotao’s team, other than the captain’s contribution points, the rewards were always split equally between everyone. They were considered a very kind team.
Cong Zhima retorted,”what’s so difficult about that? everyone who sees it gets a share. The four of us will get one each. As for the extra one, of course, it’ll go to Captain Xiao Tao. She’s been taking care of us for so long, and she’s the captain. If it were other teams, it’s only natural that she’d get the bigger share!”
This Cong Zhima was a kind person! “I’m fine with that,”Lin Yi nodded.
Chen Muzi seemed to be struggling, but since both Cong Zhima and Lin Yi had made their stand clear, there was no point in him objecting. He could only nod in agreement, but his eyes were filled with the gloominess of a successful scheme.
“In that case, I’ll shamelessly take one more Wandu golden core fruit.” Huang xiaotao suppressed the joy in her heart and immediately expressed,””In order to make up for everyone’s losses, I’ll split my share of the rewards for this mission and the next few missions.”
After the four of them finished their discussion, they immediately picked the five Wandu golden core fruits and put them into their respective pouches with unconcealed excitement.
At this moment, the Jade sent out a warning. Lin Yi’s eyes twitched-with his current senses, he could clearly feel five powerful spirit beasts “auras gathering towards them from all directions.
From the looks of it, this was premeditated. They were surrounded!
Just as Lin Yi was thinking to himself that this was a trap, the ghostly thing spoke up,””You’re thinking too much, Lin brat. This isn’t a trap. From the looks of it, they must have discussed that they would only come to pick the Wandu golden core fruit when it’s fully ripe. That’s why they’ve been waiting nearby and cleared the area. They just didn’t expect you guys to snatch it before they did …”
“Oh, I see.” Lin Yi sweated as he listened to the damn thing-this wasn’t a trap at all! The five spirit beasts had already discussed who would get one, and they probably calculated that each of them would get one. On the other hand, Lin Yi’s group looked like they were breaking into the house.
However, there was no first come, first served basis for treasures. According to the law of nature, only the strong would get them. No one, be it Lin Yi or Huang xiaotao, had ever given up the Wandu golden core fruit so easily.
The five high-rank spirit beasts were enraged when they realized that the Wandu golden core fruit they had been drooling over was stolen. They charged at Lin Yi and the others from all directions.
At this time, other than Lin Yi, the others didn’t notice at all. They were still immersed in the joy of finding a treasure.
Should he give them a little reminder? Lin Yi hesitated. They were only temporary companions, but he didn’t want them to die in the mouths of spirit beasts.
However, before Lin Yi could open his mouth, Huang xiaotao’s expression suddenly changed. She quickly silenced everyone and said seriously,””Something’s not right. I feel something is coming, and there’s more than one. Be careful, everyone. I’ll go and take a look!”
With that, in front of Lin Yi and the other two, Huang Xiao Tao’s figure gradually disappeared into the air at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if she had evaporated into thin air. Lin Yi was stunned.
Cong Zhima explained,”this is a very high-end forest stealth skill. As long as you’re in the forest, you can hide your body perfectly. Brother Ling Yi, don’t think that our Captain is a woman. She’s very strong!”
“Forest stealth? This is the first time I’ve seen such a thing. ” Lin Yi nodded, deep in thought.
Although he could not see with his eyes, with his keen perception, he could still vaguely feel Huang xiaotao’s existence. This invisibility martial art made him unconsciously think of the spirit beasts that Lee Zhengming had tamed. Invisibility was the racial talent of the ghost Tigers.
Chapter 1827: Chapter 1825-on the way home
Not long after Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu left, another car drove out of the valley. It was the car to pick up Tang Yun’s parents and Xiao Ming. This was also Tang Yun’s intention. Her parents were staying in Songshan city. Not only would she miss them, but most importantly, Lin Yi might meet them again. Tang Yun was afraid that her parents would tell Lin Yi about it … Especially her mother. Tang Yun was a little worried!
That’s why she asked the valley to send people to pick them up after Chu Mengyao left. With Tang Yun’s current status, no one would dare to say no even if she brought three people who didn’t do anything in the valley.
……………………
Dark night Palace.
Although the shadow group didn’t manage to find out anything about those tourists, they did manage to send back a piece of news that worried Wan ‘er. Chu Peng had gotten into a car accident, and it was unknown whether he was Dead or Alive. He was in the hospital’s intensive care unit, and he was still in critical condition!
When elder li told Wan ‘er about this, Wan’ er’s face turned pale.””How … How did he get into a car accident …”
“The investment failed, the company went bankrupt, and I heard it was a suicide …” Elder li told Wan ‘er what he had found out.
“The investment failed … Even if it failed, he wouldn’t commit suicide. Pengzhan’s not the kind of person who can’t afford to lose, why would he commit suicide?” Wan ‘er didn’t believe this news,”Besides, there’s still Yaoyao. Why would he choose to commit suicide before he can see me?”
“Witnesses said that he committed suicide and hit the car himself …” Elder li sighed and said.
“That person … Didn’t lie?” Wan ‘er still didn’t believe that Chu pengzhan would choose to commit suicide.
“There weren’t only witnesses. The entire incident was recorded on the dashcam of the car that caused the accident. That’s the key. Our people have seen this video. The son-in-law’s eyes were lifeless and full of despair … It should be the eyes of someone before he committed suicide …” Elder li smiled bitterly.”Although I don’t believe that Guye would do such a stupid thing, the truth is …”
“Why did his company go bankrupt? Did someone want to harm him?” Wan ‘er still didn’t believe that Chu pengzhan would commit suicide.
“This … Whether or not someone harmed him, it’s still not clear. I can send someone to investigate, but it must be hidden from the Grand Elder …” Elder Li said carefully,””However, this isn’t the main point. The most important thing now is how to get Guye out of danger safely …”
“Great recovery pill and nerve opening pill?” Wan ‘er said, slightly surprised.
The great cyclic pellet and the meridian opening pellet were both for cultivators to consume. One of them could extend one’s life in the case of extremely serious injuries, while the meridian opening pellet was for repairing the damaged meridians, bones, and internal organs.
However, it wasn’t just for practitioners-it was effective for normal people as well. With pengzhan’s current condition, he had to take the great cyclic pellet first, followed by the meridian opening pellet, to fully recover. However, both of these pellets were extremely expensive. The meridian opening pellet was a little lacking, but the great cyclic pellet was something that even the sky elixir sect didn’t have much in stock!
Not only was the great recovery pill difficult to refine, but it also required extremely rare heavenly and earthly treasures, which were naturally priceless.
And so, after Wan ‘er finished speaking, her face turned bitter. The Dark Palace and the sky elixir sect didn’t have a good relationship, and they wouldn’t even be able to ask for a single normal pill from the sky elixir sect, let alone the great recovery pill!
The Dark Palace had their own refiner, but they were only golden class first level. They could barely make the channel opening pill, but not the recover pill!
But even if it was the nerve opening pill, the Grand Elder would probably be the first to object if she wanted to give it to Chu pengzhan, right? Thinking of this, Wan ‘er’s eyes dimmed.
“I’ll try my best …” Elder li understood what Palace Master Wan ‘er meant, but he wasn’t sure if he could get the pills.
Although he was an elder of a sect, it could be said that the elixir of the Dark Palace was even rarer than those of the hidden noble houses. This was because the sky elixir sect would publicly sell a batch of elixirs that weren’t too rare at the auction every year.
However, the relationship between the Dark Palace and the sky elixir sect was tense. The Dark Palace couldn’t bring themselves to bid at the auction, and with their status, they wouldn’t do things like secretly ordering the other hidden noble houses to bid for them.
Mengyao and Yushu didn’t run into any more danger on their way back, and the robbers didn’t show up either.
When they left, everyone was fumbling around, but when they came back, they were familiar with the road. After a few days of hard work, they finally returned to the West Star Mountain village! But, even though Lin Yi’s problem was solved, the Miss and Shu weren’t happy at all!
The price Lin Yi had to pay for his recovery was too heavy. Four of them went there, and three came back. One of them would be staying in the valley, and it would be hard to see him again.
Old Lin’s heart sank when he saw Mengyao and Shu get out of the car. Kongwen had warned him about this, but he still couldn’t accept it when it happened.
“Yaoyao, Shu, where’s Yunyun?” Old Lin couldn’t help but ask.
“She … Stayed in the valley …” Mengyao’s face didn’t look too good. She was the only one who didn’t come back.
“You’re staying in the snowy valley? What do you mean by that?” Old Lin asked in a deep voice. Kongwen’s expression was even weirder now.
“She …” Mengyao couldn’t hold back her tears when she mentioned Tang Yun. This made old Lin even more worried.
“Could it be that she met with some mishap?” Old Lin asked, his face serious.
“No, but according to my guess, Tang Yun is probably staying in the valley?” Kongwen looked at Mengyao and Yushu. He could already guess what was going on from their expressions.
In fact, kongwen had predicted her fate the moment she left Starwest village, but he couldn’t change it. He didn’t have the ability to change her fate, and he had already seen her fate …
“Stay in the snowy valley?” Old Lin blinked.
“Yes … Yun Yun stayed in the valley …” Chu Mengyao sobbed and told old Lin and kongwen what happened.
Kongwen’s mouth was still wide open when he heard that Tang Yun had received the inheritance in the valley, even though he had predicted her fate. (It’s the beginning of the month. Dear mobile phone readers, please vote for the murlocs. Thank you!)
