Mushroom Man

"I've finally waited for you..."

Wu Liang's eyes were deep and his lips slightly upturned.

Now, if he wants to intercept the transaction between Xinggong and Zhenlong Merchant Caravan, all that's left is that the principal hasn't arrived yet.

With enough capital, he can breed bubble fish in large quantities.

And this principal, without a doubt, will fall into the hands of this man who always keeps his word.

With the Lie Mushroom by his side, he was not bound by any oaths and could act freely, recklessly borrowing silver.

As for whether the matter will be exposed...

For him, there was no need to consider it at all; after all, by then, he might have already made his escape.

Once Wu Liang made up his mind, he prepared to make a trip to Chaotic Star Island to meet Yan Bixing and also to find the Green Grass Jade.

At this moment, Bone Master seemed to remember something and quickly said, "Your Excellency, I have something to report."

"Oh?" Wu Liang raised an eyebrow and looked at Bone Master, seemingly somewhat surprised.

Gu Zhenren dared not be negligent and immediately spoke respectfully: "Your Excellency, I believe that this underwater cave may hold some secrets."

"When I first came here, I sensed an extremely rich spiritual energy."

"That is why I risked venturing deep into this place."

"Unexpectedly, a stinging jellyfish appeared out of nowhere, trying to stop me."

"Now that I think about it carefully, I realize that there must be some treasure hidden in this cave, which is why the stinging jellyfish is so nervous and relentlessly pursues me."

Upon hearing this from Master Gu, Wu Liang narrowed his eyes and then focused his attention on the underwater cave.

As it is said, the concentration of spiritual energy here is indeed different from that in the outside world.

It seems this underwater cave might actually be hiding some treasure.

Otherwise, why would a level 4 mushroom beast like the Tentacles Jellyfish choose to live here?
It should be noted that a mushroom beast at the fourth level can already be considered a local overlord.

Normally, such powerful mushroom-like creatures should all inhabit the deep sea.

But now it has appeared out of the ordinary near the sea, there must be something fishy going on!

"Lead the way, I'll follow you and take a look..."

Wu Liang considered the time for a moment, then spoke calmly.

Bone Master quickly agreed and immediately followed his memory to lead the way.

The underwater cave is winding and dimly lit.

If neither of them were ordinary beings, they would probably have gotten lost in this underwater cave.

To prevent any unknown dangers from existing here.

The Bone Immortal is very cautious and usually sends the skeletons ahead.

He would only set off after confirming that there was no danger.

After a while, the two of them spent the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before finally finding the depths of the underwater cave.

Wu Liang, who was already somewhat impatient, suddenly sensed the fluctuations of spiritual energy emanating from within, and his expression changed slightly.

He and Bone Master exchanged a glance, both guessing what treasure was inside.

"Could this feeling be... the spiritual spring?"

Without further hesitation, Wu Liang immediately moved and entered the deepest part of the narrow and enclosed underwater cave.

as predicted!

There, right here, was a sacred spring!
The spring is about the size of a small lake, and its water is silvery-white, clearly distinct from the seawater, with no interference between them.

The wisps of spiritual energy were so tangible that they had become so dense that they formed a mist that lingered for a long time.

"Congratulations, Special Envoy! Congratulations, Special Envoy! This is a mid-grade spiritual spring!" Master Bone, having expended tremendous effort, also managed to squeeze in at this moment.

The moment he saw the sacred spring, he was overjoyed and immediately offered his congratulations.

"A mid-grade spiritual spring..."

A hint of joy flashed in Wu Liang's eyes, clearly not expecting such an unexpected surprise.

As expected of the most bountiful North Sea, he actually stumbled upon a mid-grade spiritual spring so casually!
Once upon a time, Wu Liang had used the Tianyuan Lingzhi Mushroom to absorb a mouthful of spiritual spring water at Bajiao Mountain.

That spiritual spring was at best only of low grade.

Even so, Wu Liang and Morobi each reaped a harvest of nearly 100,000 taels of silver.

This shows just how terrifying a mid-grade spiritual spring, which is even above a low-grade spiritual spring, can be.

A single sip of low-grade spiritual spring water can nurture a powerful force capable of dominating a region and possessing fourth-level mushroom masters.

Mid-grade spiritual springs are usually only possessed by top-tier mortal forces.

Logically speaking, a place like Chaotic Star Island shouldn't have a mid-grade spiritual spring.

After all, no matter how powerful the Star Palace is, a single fifth-rank mushroom master might not be able to protect the mid-grade spiritual spring.

unless……

This mid-grade spiritual spring has not yet been discovered by anyone; it is a newly formed spiritual spring!
Only in this way can we explain why there are no mushroom masters guarding this place, only a fourth-level mushroom beast.

Thinking of this, Wu Liang's gaze towards the mid-grade spiritual spring became even brighter.

Since no one has discovered this place, doesn't that mean that the Mid-Grade Spirit Spring will henceforth belong to the Wu family?

With this mid-grade spiritual spring, will he ever have to worry about not having silver water again?
"Hmm... It's a pity that this is just a newly formed spiritual spring, it must have only been formed recently."

Wu Liang examined the spiritual spring more carefully, and then calmed down.

As he said, the spiritual spring was only recently formed, and the amount of silver water it contained was not much, barely more than 20,000 to 30,000 drops.

This silver liquid was nothing to Wu Liang; it was better than nothing.

However, Wu Liang was not dissatisfied with this...

After all, the true value of this mid-grade spiritual spring lies not in the silver water it produces, but in the spring itself.

As everyone knows, to upgrade a third-grade Heavenly Origin Spirit Mushroom to a fourth-grade Heavenly Origin Spirit Mushroom, three mouthfuls of low-grade spiritual spring water are required.

To upgrade a fourth-grade Heavenly Origin Spirit Mushroom to a fifth-grade Heavenly Origin Spirit Mushroom, nine mouthfuls of mid-grade spiritual spring water are required.

Currently, Wu Liang's Heavenly Origin Spirit Mushroom is only at the third stage, so he only needs to absorb low-grade spiritual spring water.

But if we don't have low-grade spiritual springs, can we use mid-grade spiritual springs?

The answer is, of course!

A single sip of mid-grade spiritual spring water can sustain itself for a thousand years, which is exactly equivalent to ten sips of low-grade spiritual spring water.

If Wu Liang were willing to part with the spiritual spring and not afraid of wasting it, he could completely discard this mid-grade spiritual spring.

This will allow the third-stage Heavenly Origin Spirit Mushroom to be directly upgraded to the fourth stage!
While this approach may seem wasteful, it is nonetheless a good way to make proper use of this sacred spring.

Spiritual springs cannot be moved, and Wu Liang cannot stay on Chaotic Star Island for an extended period of time just because of a spiritual spring.

Wu Liang still has many things to do; Qingmao Blessed Land and Xiaoyao Blessed Land are both waiting for him.

In this situation, in order not to waste this mid-grade spiritual spring, it seems that the best choice is to give the Heavenly Origin Spirit Mushroom its benefits.

Upon considering this, Wu Liang made up his mind.

He turned to look at the still excited Bone Master and immediately gave an order.

"Take out the Heavenly Origin Spirit Mushroom and drain this mid-grade spiritual spring dry!" (End of Chapter)
