Transmigration: A person in a martial arts world, cultivating to ascend to immortality
Chapter 15 Ghost Grass
After making their choice, the three immediately set off and flew towards the lakeshore.
The island was a hundred feet away from the lake shore. Because the three people had different strengths, their speeds of flying on water also differed.
The woman with the sword was the fastest, followed by the man with the bow, while the tall man with the knife was the slowest.
Although the alligator dragon was hit by a poisoned arrow, the three of them still dared not relax their vigilance in the slightest, remaining extremely cautious throughout their water-walking flight.
The woman with the sword was the first to reach the shore.
Only when her feet touched the ground did she finally feel a little relieved.
After landing, the woman with the sword immediately turned to look at the other two people who were still flying towards the shore.
The man wielding the bow was only a dozen feet away from the shore, while the tall man with the knife was a little further away, nearly thirty feet away.
Soon, the man wielding the bow also reached the shore and leaped to stand beside the woman holding the sword.
The tall man wielding the knife was now less than ten feet away from the two men.
When his two companions reached the shore safely, and he was only a few steps away from doing so himself, the tall man instantly relaxed his guard. He began to think and worry about how to explain things to the deputy leader when he got back, and what kind of punishment the three of them would face.
The four of them not only failed to capture the alligator dragon, but also lost one of their members!
One can imagine how furious the deputy hall master would be after learning the truth.
The Heavenly One Sect always judges things solely by results, disregarding the process. Therefore, even though the alligator dragon far exceeded their expectations in both size and strength, the deputy hall master would not show leniency or reduce their punishment because of this.
The other two people standing on the shore, having escaped danger, also began to ponder the matter.
There is nothing we can do about it.
The punishments that the church imposes on members who fail in their missions are so cruel and varied that it's hard for them not to think about them.
Just then, Jiang Yuchuan, who had been hiding on a high tree trunk, saw a huge black shadow under the lake, rapidly approaching the tall man wielding the knife.
It was the giant alligator dragon lurking beneath the lake!
The three were completely unaware of the dark figure that was already approaching from underwater.
It wasn't until the alligator suddenly leaped out of the water, bit the tall man, and dragged him into the lake that the two people standing on the shore reacted and looked at each other in disbelief!
Both of them were extremely shocked and bewildered by the reappearance of the alligator dragon.
This alligator dragon wasn't poisoned at all!
Or rather, the effects of the poisoned arrows were negligible and did not hinder its actions at all!
Thinking of this, the two immediately turned and left, fearing that something else might happen.
Only after the two figures had completely disappeared from sight did Jiang Yuchuan jump down from the tree where he was hiding.
The Yin energy emanating from that alligator dragon was even more concentrated than Jiang Yuchuan had imagined.
It seems that, just as he had expected, spiritual creatures containing yin energy are indeed growing in this lake!
That alligator dragon mutated because it devoured a spiritual object, giving it a size and strength far exceeding that of its kind.
Jiang Yuchuan wasted no more time. After applying a concealment talisman to himself, he used his spiritual power to protect his entire body and jumped into the lake.
Once underwater, Jiang Yuchuan immediately began to track the dragon based on the residual yin energy left behind by the alligator.
As Jiang Yuchuan dived deeper and deeper, the underwater world grew increasingly dark, almost to the point of complete blindness. However, the darkness had little effect on Jiang Yuchuan, who possessed a powerful divine sense.
During his search for the alligator dragon, Jiang Yuchuan discovered that the fish in the lake were pitifully few and tiny. He didn't encounter a single one that was slightly larger, presumably because the alligator dragon had eaten them all.
Given the size of that crocodile, this situation is not surprising.
It is very likely that the alligator was lured into the trap by the four people because it had eaten all the big fish in the lake and was experiencing a food shortage.
After tracking for nearly half an hour, Jiang Yuchuan finally spotted the crocodile in a stone cave surrounded by aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake.
The yin energy emanating from the stone cave was even more concentrated than that inside the alligator dragon's body!
Because of the concealment talisman, the alligator dragon resting in the cave did not notice Jiang Yuchuan slowly approaching it.
After getting a certain distance from the alligator dragon, Jiang Yuchuan stopped, then extended two fingers and gently touched the water plants near the cave.
Vast patches of aquatic plants seemed to suddenly come to life, and began to frantically coil around the alligator.
Before the alligator dragon could react, the half of its body that was exposed outside the cave was already tightly wrapped up by layers of aquatic plants.
Of course, these fragile water plants alone were not enough to completely restrain the giant alligator dragon. So, just as the alligator dragon was struggling frantically, Jiang Yuchuan made another move, manipulating the spiritual power within his body to condense six finger-thick and three-foot-long cyan-green light arrows in the water.
As soon as the six light arrows were formed, they were rapidly shot towards the alligator dragon, which was entangled and wrapped in aquatic plants, under Jiang Yuchuan's control.
Although this alligator dragon wasn't particularly strong, Jiang Yuchuan used a full 30% of his spiritual power to condense these six light arrows in order to avoid any unnecessary delays.
Six beams of light crisscrossed and darted about, cutting through the dragon's impenetrable armor in an instant.
In less than three breaths, dozens of bloody holes appeared on the huge alligator dragon's body, and it died completely.
After collecting the entire corpse of the alligator dragon into the spirit pearl, Jiang Yuchuan condensed a ball of light at his fingertips and swam into the stone cave.
The cave wasn't very large, so Jiang Yuchuan quickly found the target he was looking for.
"It's actually Ghost Grass?!"
Jiang Yuchuan was stunned for a moment when he saw the slender, dark blue plant growing in the crack of the rock, and then he was overjoyed.
This Ghost Grass is an essential ingredient for refining pills that benefit the soul! Even in the cultivation world, it is rarely seen.
Jiang Yuchuan never expected that he would meet him here!
Although the ghost grass in the cave was still in its growth stage and not yet mature, it did not prevent him from digging it up.
The Ghost Grass is a very special herb. In addition to absorbing spiritual energy, it also requires the absorption of blood. The spiritual energy and blood it absorbs eventually transform into Yin energy, becoming its nutrients and enabling it to grow.
Spiritual energy—his spiritual pearl is overflowing with it!
As for the blood, it just so happens to be from the alligator dragon that he had just slaughtered!
Therefore, transplanting these Ghost Grasses into the medicinal fields within the Spirit Pearl is the best choice, as it can greatly accelerate their growth and shorten their maturation time.
After digging up all the ghost grass, Jiang Yuchuan carefully checked the surroundings to make sure nothing was missed before leaving and swimming towards the water.
In less than two hours, it will be dawn.
In order to return to Qingyang Town before dawn, Jiang Yuchuan immediately took out two more Swift Travel Talismans after landing and rushed back at full speed.
The purpose of the trip had been achieved, and the gains far exceeded expectations. Therefore, on the way back, Jiang Yuchuan no longer conserved his spiritual energy and went all out, returning to his courtyard in only half the time it had taken to get there.
