Shennong Sequence

Chapter 303 Sword Grass, a plant-based magic weapon; obtain shadow soil and open a cave with mysterious shadow grass!
In addition, the Seven Souls Flower condenses the seven souls and smelts a unique special power. It is said to be a necessary and hard condition in the ritual steps for all Taoist sequence monks to advance from sequence seven to sequence six.

Therefore, when Zhang Zhouling took out the Seven Souls Flower, it attracted the greedy attention of a group of powerful cultivators at the Sequence Eight and even Sequence Seven realms.

However, the special effects of the Seven Souls Flower are not very attractive to Zhao Yun, a Si Nong at the eighth level.

Because Zhao Yun already has the divinity of the mountain god, he has the ability to condense and smelt the seven spirits.

So, after all, the Seven Souls Flower is good, but it is not that useful to Zhao Yun.

Then he naturally wouldn't need other methods to help him in the process of smelting the seven souls.

Of course, Zhao Yun doesn’t need it, but there are many other cultivators who need the effects of the Seven Souls Flower!
Therefore, the first session of this trade fair reached its climax directly because of the matter of that unknown man named Ji Daoyuan who came from the capital of gods!

Then there was bidding among all parties, and finally the Seven Souls Flower fell into the hands of the Meng family, a powerful family in Guihongzhou City.

Afterwards, other people came on stage one after another and released rare treasures to maintain the follow-up progress of the trade fair.

In addition, Zhao Yun also discovered a batch of special materials related to spiritual plants during the subsequent free trades:

It's a batch of sword grass seeds.

Sword grass is actually a general term for a large type of sword grass.

Below it, there are some delicate branches of various types of sword grass.

For example:

The legendary top-grade sword grass is the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass. It is said that the sword energy it emits is powerful enough to cut through the stars with one sword.

But such legendary spiritual plants are legendary objects, so it is naturally impossible for Zhao Yun to see them.

However, the legend is also based on facts. This basic sword grass has great potential to be developed as long as it is properly cultivated, lured, transformed and evolved!

Moreover, no matter how top-level the sword grass is, it is all cultivated from the most basic sword grass over the years, and then it continues to transform and evolve!
Therefore, how to cultivate a top-level legendary spiritual plant like the top-level Nine-Leaf Sword Grass from an ordinary sword grass is more worthy of reflection!

In addition to the most basic sword grass seeds, this batch of sword grass also has four special types of sword grass:

Golden Sword Grass, Black Iron Sword Grass, Shadow Sword Grass, and Flame Sword Grass.

The cultivation condition of Jinfeng Sword Grass is that it needs to be placed in an environment with a lot of metal, and then let the sword grass absorb the Gengjin Qi in the metal.
When the Golden Sword Grass finally matures, the Golden Sword Leaves it grows will be like a magical weapon that can release golden, sharp sword energy!

Or, if you feed the Golden Sword Grass with high-level metal treasures during its cultivation process, the quality of the mature Golden Sword Grass leaves will be higher, and perhaps they can directly become a magic weapon that can release sharp golden sword energy!

Magical instruments and magic weapons are two kinds of powerful items!
The Shadow Sword Grass and Flame Sword Grass are similar to the Golden Sword Grass, but with different properties.

However, there are also some sword grasses that do not transform their own sword leaves into plant-type magic weapons that release sword energy.

For example, the Black Iron Sword Grass is a special sword grass that absorbs the essence of various low-level metals and produces high-level metals.

Therefore, there is some combination between the Golden Edge Sword Grass and the Black Iron Sword Grass. One produces high-level metals, and the other produces high-level plant-type magic weapons!

In short, sword grass is a large category, and there are various types below.

The five types of sword grass that Zhao Yun discovered at the trade fair each had dozens of spiritual seeds.

Therefore, Zhao Yun purchased a batch of five types of sword grass spirit seeds.

The most basic type of sword grass is the most basic level of sword grass that is constantly lured into various types or attributes. It requires large-scale planting before other types of sword grass can be researched.

The plant-based magic sword grasses such as Shadow Sword Grass, Golden Sword Grass and Flame Sword Grass are also useful to Zhao Yun.

For example, the Shadow Sword Grass can be used in conjunction with the advanced Grass Puppet Technique: the Shadow Scythe Puppet Technique, which can be used with those Shadow Scythe Puppets that can escape into the shadows.

As for the other two kinds of Golden Sword Grass and Flame Sword Grass, although they are not very useful to Zhao Yun at the moment, it does not mean that they will not be useful in the future...

Just like the grafting method, by grafting the Star-blasting Bamboo, Flame Sword Grass and Golden Sword Grass together, there might be more amazing changes in the armor-piercing shotgun explosion!

Of course, these are just things that come to mind when inspiration strikes. The specific grafting still requires experimental practice...

As for the Black Iron Sword Grass, this thing is a converter that transforms low-grade metals into high-grade metals. Just by listening to it, you can tell that it is very profitable!

Afterwards, people from all walks of life were also overwhelmed by the atmosphere of this transaction. They went on stage one by one, holding their treasures and making speeches, as well as talking about the various materials they wanted but were difficult to purchase through normal channels.

Before Zhao Yun had military merits, he was a "rich man"!
At this trade fair, most of the materials that people were looking to buy could be found in the Military Merit Mall of the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror!

However, all the materials displayed in the Military Merit Mall in the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth can only be purchased with military merit.

However, the military achievements of most people are pitifully few.

Then naturally there will be no purchasing channel like the Military Honors Mall.

Therefore, they can only be purchased through bartering in private or in other markets, or using a more versatile common trading item such as spirit stones.

However, Zhao Yun has now used up all his accumulated military merits. Although he cannot purchase supplies, he still has the authority and can still search for relevant information based on the various supplies mentioned by most people in the trade venue.

Also, Zhao Yun was waiting, waiting for what his master, Longze Zhenjun, had said about the transaction of the Dongxuan Xuying Grass hidden in the Shadow Soil.

So after waiting for a long time, Zhao Yun finally arrived!
But the owner of this shadow soil made Zhao Yun's expression change slightly.

This person is neither Zhao Yun’s own friend nor someone Zhao Yun knows, but he is wearing the clothes of the hostile Xiang family!
So at a glance, one can tell that the owner of the Shadow Soil is a member of the Xiang family.

Since Zhao Yun started practicing Taoism, apart from the major cause and effect intersection with the Barbarian King of Canglan Grassland, the biggest evil consequence of his intersection with him was this Xiang family.

So in an instant, another doubt arose in Zhao Yun's mind?
How did Master Longze know that this person from the Xiang family had a pot of shadow soil in his hands?
Also, how did you know that this person from the Xiang family would sell Shadow Soil at this trade fair?
After Jing Yuchan had the same doubts going around in his mind for a while, he was able to figure it out easily.

Earlier, when Zhao Yun was recruiting talents with great fanfare, he had discovered that these people from the Xiang family were still not honest and wanted to cause trouble in front of Daonongfang.

But at that time, Master Longze was blocking them. So Jing Yuchan thought that Master Longze must have followed those returning Xiang family members and sneaked into the Xiang family's territory in Guihongzhou City, so he knew everything about the Xiang family!

Only then would the ritual spiritual plant that Zhao Yun needed happen and he would personally give guidance.

So, when Jing Yuchan saw Zhao Yun's puzzled expression, he gave Zhao Yun a reassuring look and told him to just go ahead and bid with peace of mind.

As for unnecessary things, don't think about them.

Thinking too much will only bring more troubles to your life.

Moreover, since Master Longze has already infiltrated the Xiang family, there should be a solution for the Xiang family's magic about Zhao Yun's fate and even the blood poison that appeared on Zhao Yun's body.

"Zhao Yun, this kid, can be said to have been helped to eliminate two major disasters by his master without him realizing it because of his apprenticeship."

While Jing Yuchan was thinking about this, Zhao Yun was still looking at the items being auctioned.

Although he didn't have many resources left, after all, with the salaries paid last month and the military expenses of the 800 private soldiers he embezzled, he could still get nearly ten thousand low-level spirit stones in total every month.

And these resources were not enough for Zhao Yun, who held a high official position as the deputy supervisor of the Sinong Supervisory Commissioner of the entire Beiliang Border Island City. Considering the powerful size of the Sinong Supervisory Commissioner, he could not gain much from it.

But for ordinary monks, it is a huge amount of resources!
Especially the Xiang family, a group of people who have left their hometowns and have no official background. Now they can only rely on the protection given by Confucianism to circulate within the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Therefore, good, high-quality sources of cultivation are also scarce for them.

On his side, Zhao Yun offered a price of 500 spirit stones, which attracted the favor of the fortune teller.

However, there was another person from Gongshujia who also offered a price of 510 spirit stones.

But then, after seeing Zhao Yun's face clearly, the Gongshu family's man automatically withdrew.

A big order that Gongshujia received recently was provided by Zhao Yun.

No matter who you offend, you must not offend your financial backers!

Therefore, Zhao Yun still paid the same price of 500 spirit stones as he had offered at the beginning, and directly bought the pot of shadow soil.

Afterwards, Zhao Yun placed it in the divine spiritual realm, and then used his control over the divine spiritual realm to begin to decompose the finest particles of the shadow soil bit by bit, until the last bit of shadow soil was completely separated. In the shadow of the shadow soil under the light, under the shadow of the last remaining bit of shadow soil, a mysterious object suddenly appeared!
And this object is the spiritual seed of the Dongxuan Xuying Grass.

Zhao Yun specially took out the spirit seed and asked his senior brother Jing Yuchan to identify it.

Finally, I confirmed again that the spirit seed was accurate, and I finally felt relieved.

Then, Zhao Yun placed the spiritual seed of the Dongxuan Xuying Grass back into the shadow of the pot of shadow soil.

The reason for doing this is that the process for Zhao Yun to be promoted from Sequence 8 to Sequence 7 is still relatively long.

Therefore, it is naturally impossible to allow this spiritual seed to start growing and sprouting now. Otherwise, it cannot be bound to become a ritual spiritual plant along with Zhao Yun's promotion ritual.

Also, this Dongxuan Xuying Grass cannot be bound to Zhao Yun himself to become a ritual spiritual plant, so Zhao Yun cannot share the various characteristics and abilities of this ritual spiritual plant.

Therefore, the spiritual seeds of the Dongxuan Xuying Grass naturally need to be sealed again, and even combined with some special environmental conditions to prevent it from taking root and sprouting.

The shadow of the shadow soil is the best environment for preserving the spirit seed of the Dongxuan Xuying Grass, and it will not allow the spirit seed to take root and sprout directly!

Then Zhao Yun took out the jade box, put the shadow soil in it, and stored it in the treasure house specially built next to the small courtyard built in this divine spiritual realm.

"My ritual spirit plant for advancing from Sequence 8 to Sequence 7 has been solved here!"

Zhao Yun said in his heart.

Then, while the trade fair was still going on, Zhao Yun took out another 800 spirit stones and bought two materials:

One of them is a special blood essence!
After Zhao Yun's inspection, it was confirmed that this thing was also blood essence condensed from a blood-sucking vine, and the quality and volume of this blood essence were relatively high, directly reaching the seventh grade!

It is one level higher than Zhao Yun's ritual spiritual plant Blood-sucking Vine, which is only at the eighth level.

So Zhao Yun took this seventh-grade blood essence and used it to feed his ritual spirit plant, the Blood-sucking Vine.

Moreover, as long as his ritual spiritual plant, the Blood-sucking Vine, can digest this piece of seventh-grade blood essence, then when Zhao Yun lets the Blood-sucking Vine parasitize in his body, the recovery ability of his physical body will be further enhanced!
Also, when using the special treasure that Ma Wenchao sent to him at the cost of consuming blood: the heart-protecting mirror, if he uses it for a longer time, his own blood will not be completely drained.

This will reduce the cost of using the special treasure, the heart mirror, which will cause harm to oneself.

As for the 800 spirit stones, Zhao Yun used the other 500 spirit stones to buy another thing - Yinjiu kerosene.

When I first heard this thing, I thought it was oil.

But the essence is different.

Zhao Yun spent 500 spirit stones to buy this batch of Yinjiu fire oil, which was refined from materials from a variety of special monsters:
The pyrotechnic powder on the wings of the Blazing Moth;

The fire-attributed oil on the body of the Flame Prison Yinjiu;

The fire crystal on the Soul-Scorching Flame Demon that can burn the soul;

The phantom fire on the Fire Cloud Fox's tail hair can release illusions;

The pollen of the magnificent Dream King Flower that targets the soul;

The intense fire poison on the lava giant scorpion's tail needle...

And other special materials, which are then refined into kerosene.

Its function is to ignite and then indiscriminately kill people on a large scale!
