Starting from the two realms, cultivating immortality by taming beasts

Chapter 92 Millennium Marrow Ginseng

"Do you know my name, Senior Sister?" Chen Beiwu looked at the child beside him.

"Li Wan'er, junior brother, you can call me Senior Sister Li, or you can call me Senior Sister Wan'er," Li Wan'er said with a smile.

The Mirror Moon Sect places great importance on etiquette. When outer disciples meet inner disciples, regardless of age or cultivation level, they must address them as senior brother or sister. The same applies when inner disciples meet true disciples.

Of course, since the disciples of the Six Mirror Moon Sects belong to different mountain ranges and islands, in order to show respect or maintain distance, some inner disciples will directly address the true disciples by their surnames.

As for those from the same lineage and school, their seniority is determined by the order in which they entered the school.

Because of her cultivation technique, she has been unable to leave Shuiyue Peak.

She was naturally overjoyed to finally have a junior disciple.

"Senior Sister Wan'er, I would like to ask you a few questions." Chen Beiwu's heart stirred slightly.

Li Wan'er took Chen Beiwu's arm and said in a friendly tone, "We are both from the Jingyue lineage, so we're not outsiders. Feel free to ask me anything, no need to be so polite."

"The protective formation of Shuiyue Secluded Residence looks quite extraordinary. I wonder what kind of formation it is?"

"Junior brother is interested in formations? This is a second-tier high-grade spirit formation set up by the Formation Hall, the [Gathering Nether Weak Water Formation]. This formation can gather spiritual energy and isolate divine sense. When fully activated, it can withstand nine attacks from a Foundation Establishment cultivator without any hindrance."

At this point, Li Wan'er paused, "However, to avoid any misunderstandings, Junior Brother, you'd better not test the power of the Gathering Nether Weak Water Formation yourself."

Upon hearing this, Chen Beiwu's eyes showed a look of doubt.

Li Wan'er glanced around, then leaned her head close to Chen Beiwu and said, "The cultivators in the Array Hall all like to boast. This Gathering Nether Weak Water Array has only so-so defensive capabilities, but it's very loud. Last time, I shattered it with just a light tap, and the sect fined me a lot of spirit stones."

"What?!" Chen Beiwu was startled.

The second-tier high-grade formation shattered with a single blow; what kind of humanoid beast is this!

"By the way, junior brother, are you hungry?" Li Wan'er suddenly smacked her lips.

"good."

Upon hearing this, Chen Beiwu suddenly felt a sense of foreboding.

"I'm alright, just hungry."

Li Wan'er glanced around furtively, then took out a peculiar medicinal herb shaped like an infant from her storage ring and placed it in his hand.

"Shh!" Wan'er put a finger to her pouting lips: "This is a thousand-year-old ginseng that I secretly dug up in the Treasure Herb Garden in the back mountain. It's very effective. We'll each have half."

As soon as he finished speaking, the cold marrow ginseng in Chen Beiwu's hand immediately split in two.

Half of it was stuffed into Wan'er's mouth and swallowed without even chewing, like Zhu Bajie swallowing a ginseng fruit. The other half was placed in Chen Beiwu's palm.

"Hey, junior brother, why aren't you eating?"

Seeing Chen Beiwu standing there motionless, Wan'er looked up in surprise.

"What are you surprised about? I'm the one who should be surprised," Chen Beiwu couldn't help but think to himself.

The Millennium Marrow Ginseng is known as the Profound Marrow Yuan Ginseng or the Precious Soul Ginseng in the Immortal Alliance. It is an extremely precious third-grade low-level medicinal herb.

If a second-realm demon with compatible attributes consumes this ginseng, its cultivation will advance greatly, directly gaining two hundred years of cultivation.

However, the millennium ginseng also has a drawback that cultivators cannot ignore: its medicinal effects are too overpowering.

Second-stage ice-elemental demons can be eaten raw because demons have strong physical bodies, but Foundation Establishment cultivators cannot.

Foundation Establishment cultivators have weaker physical bodies than demons. Directly consuming the Thousand-Year Marrow Ginseng would actually harm them due to its extremely cold medicinal power, causing their dantian foundation to freeze and severely damaging their vital energy.

As it turned out, Senior Sister Wan'er was able to swallow it all in one go!

At this moment, Chen Beiwu looked at the thousand-year-old ginseng in his hand, his forehead slightly sweating, and he felt as if he were riding a horse and couldn't dismount.

He was just a Qi Refining cultivator with insufficient cultivation. Let alone swallowing this level of precious medicine directly, even if he followed the method given in the Immortal Alliance's Precious Medicine Compendium and applied the juice of the thousand-year-old ginseng to his body, it could still damage his flesh, bones, and meridians.

Besides, he had only recently joined the Mirror Moon Sect and didn't want to be accused of stealing the sect's spiritual herbs.

"Don't be afraid, eat with peace of mind. Senior sister is just joking. This thousand-year-old marrow ginseng was bestowed by our master, and it's just right for us, senior and junior, to each have half."

"Thank you for the gift, Senior Sister."

Chen Beiwu breathed a sigh of relief and took out a jade box from his storage bag to carefully preserve the half of the thousand-year-old ginseng.

Yes, he's probably overthinking it.

The sect has strict laws, so how could Senior Sister steal the sect's precious medicine for no reason? That's a serious crime that even Foundation Establishment cultivators wouldn't dare to commit.

"Junior brother, aren't you going to eat?" Li Wan'er swallowed, glancing longingly at the jade box.

Seeing this, Chen Beiwu hesitated for a moment before handing her the jade box, saying, "If you like, Senior Sister, you can have some more."

For some reason, he always felt that Senior Sister Wan'er was a bit unreliable.

"Forget it, if I finish it all by myself, there will be no one to share the scolding with me."

After saying that, Senior Sister Wan'er seemed to realize what she had said and subconsciously covered her mouth.

Chen Beiwu: "..."

Well, his premonition came true; the thousand-year-old ginseng in his hands was indeed a hot potato.

"Senior sister, do you know about the Sun Moon Lake in the Nine Apertures?" Chen Beiwu's eyelids twitched, and he changed the subject.

"I know, it was a lousy pool. It was sometimes cold and sometimes hot, so it was very uncomfortable to soak in, and it would hurt a lot." As if recalling some bad memory, the child quickly shook his head.

Chen Beiwu's eyes flickered slightly.

According to the descriptions of Senior Sister Shu and Senior Sister Wan'er, could this Nine-Aperture Sun and Moon Pool be a place where spiritual veins converge, allowing cultivators to temper their physical bodies, cleanse their souls, refine their marrow, and undergo a complete transformation?

Just then, a long cry, like the clash of thousands of golden spears, came from the distant mountains.

"Oh no, I almost forgot something important." Wan'er's eyes widened, and her figure instantly transformed into a streak of rainbow light and disappeared.

Today is the day when the rooster hatches its eggs.

If she arrives any later, she might not be able to snag the precious, yang-rich egg.

"Senior sister?"

Chen Beiwu looked around and found that his senior sister had disappeared.

"Does Shuiyue Peak recruit disciples so casually? It feels like a makeshift operation!"

Taking a deep breath, Chen Beiwu suppressed his urge to complain and walked to the entrance of his cave with the token in hand.

"Buzz!"

As the token shone brightly, the cave gate opened automatically.

As Chen Beiwu stepped inside, he immediately felt his body lighten, as if he were in a blessed land. Even the Hongmu magic power refined by the Jianmu Heavenly Book of Myriad Laws Returning to Flow had improved slightly.

"Such a rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth!" Chen Beiwu exclaimed in amazement.

His cave dwelling was actually built on a third-order spiritual vein.

In the Immortal Alliance, this would be a treasure trove that only Golden Core cultivators are qualified to enjoy!

"Indeed, joining the Mirror Moon Sect was the right choice."

Chen Beiwu nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the furnishings of the cave dwelling and found that there was only a table, a chair, a book, a brush, and a futon; there wasn't even a bed.

Sitting on the futon, Chen Beiwu did not cultivate, but took out the cultivation technique jade slip and the spell jade slip and began to study them.
