Chapter 586 Mingying Immortal Fruit
"You are right. If it is just this matter, any one of our six leaders can come. There is no need for all of us to come together. The reason why we all come to you this time is because we have something more important to discuss with you."
At this point, Yinxu Zhenren suddenly smiled mysteriously, glanced at Guhong Zhenren next to him, then sat up straight, stroked his beard and stopped talking.
Guhong Zhenren understood, and then took out a worn jade slip from the storage bag, handed it to Qiyun Zhenren, and said: "Zhenyun Zhenren, take a look at this thing first."
Qiyun Zhenren took the jade slip in his hand and looked it up and down. This jade slip was extremely broken, completely different from the current jade slip style. Many places were weathered, as if it had been stored for at least thousands of years. He probed into it with his divine thoughts, and a series of intermittent information was transmitted into Qiyun Zhenren's mind. After a lot of effort, he sorted out the information and guessed it roughly.
The content recorded in the jade slip is that someone found a Mingying fruit tree in a secret cave somewhere inside Yinfeng Gorge, but it was too young to be used, which was a pity.
As a late Jindan cultivator, Qiyun Zhenren had naturally heard of the Mingying fruit tree. The Mingying fruit is also called the Mingying fairy fruit. The reason why it has the word "fairy" is because it is the main material for refining the Jieying Pill, and the Jieying Pill is a must-have elixir for Jindan cultivators to break through the Yuanying stage.
Jindan cultivators only have a lifespan of 400 years, while Yuanying cultivators not only have greatly increased strength, but also have a lifespan of thousands of years. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are earthly immortals. It seems that there is nothing wrong with the main material in the elixir that can make the earthly immortal to have the word "fairy".
Moreover, the main material of Mingying fairy fruit is different from the main materials of other elixirs. For example, there are many kinds of main materials in the foundation-building elixir, and the purple-striped fruit is just one of them. There is only one main ingredient for the Jieying Pill, which is the Mingying Immortal Fruit. The others are auxiliary medicines and prescriptions. As long as there is the Mingying Immortal Fruit, other auxiliary medicines are easy to find, and it is not difficult to make the Jieying Pill.
The only regret is that the Mingying Immortal Fruit is too rare, and the growth period is too long. It is impossible to grow without thousands of years. It really deserves the word "immortal".
At the point of Qiyun Zhenren, what is the biggest wish? Of course, it is to improve his cultivation to the perfect realm of Jindan, and then try every means to break through the Jindan stage.
Of course, Qiyun Zhenren also knows that this idea is a bit unrealistic. The probability of breaking through the Yuanying in his life is very low, but there is a chance no matter how low it is. Didn't the Blood Demon Ancestor break through the Yuanying more than a thousand years ago? Why can't he?
Although he has considered breaking through the Yuanying, Qiyun Zhenren has always regarded it as a very distant thing and dare not have any extravagant hopes in this regard. He only knows the name of the Mingying Immortal Fruit, let alone seeing it, and has never heard of any news about it.
Unexpectedly, today, he actually got the news about Mingying Immortal Fruit. Master Qiyun finally suppressed his restless mind and said: "Is the news inside true? When did it record the event? Do we have hope?"
Master Guhong understood Master Qiyun's feelings and did not deliberately show off. Instead, he said directly: "This jade slip was found by one of my disciples from the outer sea. Its owner should be one of the cultivators who was sent to Yinfeng Gorge to kill monsters thousands of years ago. He found the Mingying fruit tree there, but the age was too young to be of any use to him, so he just recorded it on the jade slip. Now thousands of years have passed. According to the record above, the Mingying Immortal Fruit should be ripe."
Master Qiyun was not so optimistic and said: "After all, thousands of years have passed. Who of us dares to guarantee that the Mingying Immortal Fruit is still there? And it is just the time to mature? What if it is destroyed by the monsters in Yinfeng Gorge in advance? Wouldn't it be then? Is it all in vain?"
"We were originally planning to charge into Yinfeng Gorge, isn't this a convenient thing? And don't you think the restlessness of the monsters in Yinfeng Gorge is a little unusual?"
After saying this, Master Gu Hong paused for a moment, giving Master Qiyun some time to think, and then said: "According to ancient records, the Mingying Fruit is a fairy thing with a long growth period. When the fruit is about to ripen, the air spreads thousands of miles and the breath moves the nine heavens. The monsters within a thousand miles smell the breath of the Mingying Fairy Fruit, but they can't get it, so it's normal for them to get restless."
Master Qiyun thought for a moment and said: "You mean the high-level monsters in Yinfeng Gorge also discovered the Mingying Fairy Fruit and guarded it specially. Those low-level monsters smelled the breath but dared not get close, so they could only vent their energy outside, so the recent series of events happened?"
Not only Master Gu Hong, but also the other heads beside him nodded. Isn't it obvious? The demon beasts in Yinfeng Gorge have been hiding there for thousands of years, and have been living in peace. If it weren't for the Mingying Immortal Fruit, how could they suddenly become bolder?
Suddenly, the Mingying Immortal Fruit that was about to mature appeared. Master Qiyun was a little bit unbelievable for a while, but seeing that everyone looked very confident, Master Qiyun had to believe that the Mingying Immortal Fruit was too tempting. Even if the news was false, it was worth taking a risk.
At the same time, this matter also involves the struggle between human cultivators and demon beasts. If there is really a Mingying Immortal Fruit, human cultivators will not go to grab it, and it will be a bargain for the demon beasts. Not to mention more, as long as a demon beast transforms and becomes a Yuanying demon cultivator, it will be a disaster for the entire Jiuzhou Continent.
Of course, monsters can't make pills, but the Mingying Immortal Fruit is a rare treasure after all, and the energy contained in it is extremely amazing. The pill only maximizes the medicinal power to the extent that it can make the cultivator break through. In fact, taking the Mingying Immortal Fruit directly also has a certain chance of breaking through.
Therefore, whether it is for the hope of breaking through the Nascent Soul or from the perspective of preventing the rise of monsters, everyone must go on this trip, and they have to go.
At this time, the Silver Beard Immortal said: "Everyone knows that my cultivation has reached the perfection of the Golden Core, and I have the most hope of breaking through the Nascent Soul stage. I started preparing various auxiliary medicines and medicines many years ago. The main thing I lack is the Mingying Immortal Fruit, so I have to go this time."
Who doesn't want to be in the Nascent Soul stage? The seven people present are all in the late Golden Core stage. Although some are only in the seventh and eighth levels of the Golden Core, there will always be opportunities to improve later. You can wait for medicine, but you can't wait for medicine. This kind of once-in-a-millennium opportunity will never come again after you miss it.
At this time, Master Yu Chu also said: "My alchemy skills are far from those of a Yuanying alchemist, but the Jieying Pill only has one main ingredient, so it is relatively simple to refine. As long as I can get the Mingying Immortal Fruit, I definitely won't have a 30% success rate, but I can still guarantee a 15% success rate."
