Beauty helps me achieve immortality

Chapter 116: Identifying Grasses

Chapter 118 Knowing Thousand Grasses

There was a buzzing sound in my ears, the light in front of my eyes faded away, and purple clouds covered the sky.

Zhao Qing could only feel the endless spiritual energy surging, and his hairs trembled slightly...

A long-lost feeling washed over my body, it was a cool breeze.

The next moment, the palace was no longer in front of him, and there were no other alchemists around him.

The strong sunlight was quite dazzling, and Zhao Qing raised his head slightly.

Blue sky, white clouds.

There is endless green lawn under your feet and a clear pond not far away.

Look up again...trees, mountains, rivers, flowers and plants, stretching as far as the eye can see.

Occasionally, you can see scattered figures, who are also cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage.

The unique scent of grass, trees and soil wafts in the warm sun.

A crane's cry resounded through the sky, and the white crane flew forward, disappearing to an unknown destination.

He slowly regained his composure.

Enlightenment arises in the heart, and the trial has begun.

I'm going to stay here for a month.

Know a thousand grasses...

Where is the grass?

He was stunned for a moment.

There is only one person in Class A, so it definitely has nothing to do with me.

There are 10,000 people in Class B, so the chances are pretty good.

Failed the C-level direct trial...

I am more or less a nobody, and it would be too embarrassing if I were sent back to Chu directly.

Just as he was thinking, clouds flew across the sky.

Several huge purple jade tablets emerged, covered with densely packed spiritual carvings.

That calm voice echoed in my ears again.

"A cultivator goes against the will of heaven, possessing a hundred hidden treasures."

"Every time you open a secret treasure, your strength and cultivation will improve."

"Here are a thousand kinds of spiritual herbs cultivated by the Purple Pearl Tower. You can pick them yourself. You only need to correctly recite the secrets of their medicinal properties to succeed."

"After one month, the grade will be determined based on the number of dan grasses identified."

Zhao Qing was stunned when he heard this.

The next moment, he stood there in a daze, cold sweat instantly oozing out of his forehead.

Thousands of magical herbs! ?

His eyes swept across the endless mountains before him...

There wasn't a single plant I recognized.

The knowledge gained from the first-level intermediate-grade alchemist realm is completely useless.

He originally felt a little regretful that he couldn't be promoted to the first-class upper grade in too short a time.

Now it seems……

Ha ha.

He stared at the purple jade above the clouds, on which were engraved hundreds of secrets involved in cultivation.

The rules of the trial are clear.

Pick the magical herbs you see. After picking them, you will succeed if you can answer the corresponding secret.

What if the answer is wrong?

Zhao Qing frowned slightly and carefully studied the inscriptions on the jade tablet.

"Dantian, tailbone, Jiaji, Yuzhen, Mingtang, Bridal Chamber, Niwan, Daoji, Minggong."

'Essence, brilliance, and divine splendor.'

'Consciousness, wandering soul, delusion, ghost, turbid essence.'

'Fetal light, subtle essence, refreshing spirit.'

'Corpse ghost, hidden arrow, Yin bird, swallowing thieves, non-poison, remove filth, smelly lungs.'

'...'

'Peng Ju, Peng Tu, Peng Qiao...'

Zhao Qing was stunned.

Zizhu Tower!

I'm a nima!

Is this a question for Qi Refining Alchemists?

Zhao Qing was stunned.

Because he knew every word on the purple jade.

But when put together, half of them have never been seen before.

Even if they have seen it, they have never touched the spiritual herbs that work on this secret treasure.

Three flowers and five qi?

Nine orifices and five internal organs?

Three souls and seven spirits?

What the hell does this have to do with a Qi-refining cultivator like me?

Looking at the endless green lawn in front of him, he carefully sensed it with his spiritual sense and actually discovered quite a few grass fruits with restrained spiritual charm.

However, he still didn't recognize any of them.

These should all be the grass fruits cultivated by Zizhu Tower itself, which do not exist in the mortal world at all.

Zhao Qing gradually understood the rules.

This first level of trial does not test one's alchemy skills, eyesight, or knowledge.

But it is affinity with plants and trees!

If you are very familiar with plants and trees, you can more or less answer one or two questions based on your intuition.

I think Qinghuan might be better than me here, after all, Qinghuan is also a planter.

If I had a top-grade wood spiritual root... maybe I could take advantage of it.

Just as he was thinking, that calm voice came again.

"Fenglingzhou Alchemist, swallowing grass fruit, C-level!"

"Thunder Emperor State Alchemist, Trampling Grass Fruit, C-level!"

"Zhongzhou Alchemist, opening the furnace without permission...C-level!"

Zhao Qing was stunned for a moment.

He suddenly felt that this was not a trial, but that Zizhu Tower had found 18,000 resentful people to come and collect herbs.

By the way, test your affinity with plants and trees.

In the end, no matter how many people pass the level, most of the cardamom should be picked.

Zhao Qing slowly withdrew his spiritual consciousness.

Originally, he wanted to test the effect of the combination skills here.

After all, the word "Li" has been activated.

But now it seems... forget it.

There might be some magical herbs in the water, and if you accidentally injure them, you might be sent away directly.

He pondered for a moment, then walked obediently to a green vine and looked at its face.

If I don’t know him, the other alchemists certainly don’t know him either.

There is no shortcut, you can only guess.

Fortunately, he had extensive knowledge of medicinal herbs, so he would not damage the herbs when picking them.

And based on the understanding of Dancao, I can also make a rough estimate.

After a cup of tea, Zhao Qing carefully removed the green vine.

Thinking secretly...

It seems like a dan grass that assists spiritual consciousness, but it should not affect the Mingtang...it may be the bridal chamber or the Niwan.

He whispered, "Niwan?"

The next moment, a brilliant light flashed before my eyes.

A jade box appeared in front of him, with a spiritual inscription on it: "One"

"call……"

Zhao Qing slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

It's okay, not too difficult.

He picked up the jade box on the ground and was surprised to find that the box could actually store things.

Moreover, as the spiritual energy flows, it exudes endless vitality.

He was silent for a moment and put the green vine into the jade box.

It seems that my guess was right... They are just eighteen thousand innocent people.

A reliable transporter of red grass from Zizhulou.

but……

The spiritual herbs and fruits here must be priceless.

If one swallows the freshly picked green vine directly, his spiritual awareness can be improved by at least 10%!

If this were placed in the State of Chu... I'm afraid it could be sold for more than 10,000 spirit stones!

At the same time, Zhao Qing also had a general understanding of the strength of Zizhu Tower.

It's simply... horrifying.

Such a vast landscape is actually full of magical herbs.

Even up to now, he had only seen a dozen other trial-takers. How big must this medicine garden be?

Incredible!

Zhao Qing wandered slowly with the jade box, taking every step with extreme caution.

Otherwise, other people’s grass fruits would be crushed and sent away directly.

He sometimes looked happy.

Sometimes he frowned slightly.

Every word that came out of his mouth was filled with deep doubt.

"Shenhua?"

"Fate Palace?"

"Stinky lungs?"

"Daoji?"

Half a day passed quickly.

He had already picked eight kinds of grass fruits.

But the spiritual carvings on the jade box are very heartbreaking.

"three."

Five of them were wrong...

Oh no, that’s the wrong answer.

Zhao Qing slowly stopped and sat on the ground to think for a while.

If I continue to follow these steps, maybe I can meet Shuyue and the others in a month.

Nine-story Dan Tower, is the first level so difficult?

He sighed slightly and thought silently about the countermeasures.

Among the eighteen thousand alchemists, not a single one is a loser.

The plug-ins are not of much use, I have little knowledge and poor affinity with plants and trees.

If you rely solely on luck... it's basically equivalent to giving up on the trial.

Yongning Prefecture is remote and the Chu State has few resources.

There must be many disciples from aristocratic families in the trial, and it is not impossible that there are Yuanying-stage monsters in their families.

Compare knowledge... compare luck... compare qualifications?

Not quite.

At this moment, that calm voice appeared again.

"Thousand Buddha State Alchemist, snatch the grass fruit, C-level!"

"Hu Lingzhou Alchemist, fighting with others, Class C!"

Zhao Qing instantly became much more energetic after hearing this.

Snatch? Fight?

His eyes flickered.

If I were to guess on my own... I would definitely be classified as Class C in a month.

And I worked for a month for nothing.

Zhao Qing's eyes flickered as he began to think secretly in his mind.

Can’t be stepped on, can’t be swallowed, can’t be fought over, can’t be snatched?

After a quarter of an hour of silence... an immature idea popped up in Zhao Qing's mind.

Just ...

Is there a possibility?

Instead of looking for spiritual herbs himself, he went to find other alchemists.

First observe their picking and identification, and if they get it right, write it down...

Make plans after you are familiar with the situation.

As for homework, can you neither write nor copy?

It just so happened that with the help of the art of communicating with the dead, the perception and concealment of the spiritual consciousness were improved by several levels.

It is really possible to find a few enemies first and wait and see for a while.

But the next moment, Zhao Qing felt hesitant again.

Will I be sent out of Danta directly if I do this?

That should be considered cheating, right?

He was silent for a moment, and chose to wait and see.

Let's see if that voice appears again...

What if someone comes up and says, “Alchemist of Yongning Prefecture, spiritual awareness, Class C…”?

Zhao Qing took a deep breath.

Wait three days first!

If that voice does not remind you within three days, you cannot spy on other alchemists.

Then just start playing.

Anyway, there is no chance for Class A. I will observe more in Class B and my chances should be great.
