Lu Yang followed the ginseng doll's steps and looked at the lush herbs around him with curiosity.
The sunlight shines through the gaps between the grass leaves, revealing mottled spots of light, shining on Lu Yang.
After their bodies shrank, in Lu Yang's eyes, the herbs became trees that blocked the sunlight and were much taller than him.
Soon, the man and the ginseng encountered a turbulent stream, which contained spiritual energy from nature and nurture, and was used to water the herbs. Part of the energy would also flow into the stream after the herbs were purified, and the two were mutually beneficial.
"This is the river guarded by the river spirit." The ginseng doll introduced.
Surrounding the Wendao Sect is a stream that sometimes flows fast and sometimes flows slow, and its source is a never-ending clear spring.
The clear spring has a long history. Even before the establishment of the Wendao Sect, it was blessed by heaven and earth and produced a point of spiritual light.
For inanimate objects, the greatest opportunity is to develop intelligence, and this spiritual light is of paramount importance.
If the spiritual light returns to oneself and turns into spiritual intelligence, one will instantly become the darling of heaven and earth.
If the spiritual light disappears from heaven and earth, there is no telling how many years and hardships it will take before this spiritual light appears again.
Dead objects drift with the tide, and one day they might fall and disintegrate in the battle between immortal cultivators, without any hope of developing any intelligence.
The probability of the aura dissipating is much greater than the probability of the aura returning to oneself.
Fortunately, a predecessor from the Taoist sect passed by this place and discovered this situation. He then used magic to lock this bit of spiritual light in the clear spring, and the clear spring then gave birth to true spiritual intelligence.
The spirit of Qingquan feels grateful for the kindness shown by the predecessors of the Wendao Sect and volunteers to protect the Sect.
This stream runs through various places in the Wendao Sect. On the periphery, it can protect the Wendao Sect, and on the inside, it becomes one of the sources of vitality.
The spirit of the clear spring is also called the river spirit.
From the perspective of an ordinary person, the river in front of a person and a ginseng is only two feet wide and the flow rate is not fast. It would be an exaggeration to call it a stream.
When it gets smaller, this stream is particularly exciting.
There was a wooden plank across the stream as a bridge. It looked like it was built in advance by the Medicine Kings who passed by here.
When Lu Yang walked across the stream, he felt that the stream seemed to be flowing faster, perhaps it was an illusion, as if... it was excited to see him
Lu Yang wasn't quite sure either.
He also saw a majestic city wall not far away, made of bluestone, each stone was bigger than him.
When I got closer, I realized that it was the wall of the medicine garden.
The ginseng doll dug a few times at the base of the wall, revealing pieces of transparent stone. It looked like something had been taken away, leaving only empty transparent glass.
The roots of the ginseng doll are extended and flexible like tentacles, stringing together these transparent glasses.
"This is..." Lu Yang raised his eyebrows, feeling that this thing looked familiar.
"I remember that these things are called spirit stones by you humans."
Lu Yang suddenly realized. No wonder it looked familiar. Isn't this the spirit stone after its spiritual power has been drained? It's just that he has never seen one of such good quality.
"Do you like these things? Xiaoba often buried these stones at the base of the wall, and when the stones were empty, he asked me to collect them and he would take them away all at once."
Lu Yang understood that growing herbs requires a huge amount of spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy in the medicine garden is not endless, so the Taoist sect buried spirit stones in the medicine garden to provide refined spiritual energy.
No wonder he felt the spiritual energy was so extremely rich as soon as he entered the medicine garden. It turned out that it was fed with spiritual stones.
The spiritual stones used in the medicine garden must be of a high grade. They may be extremely rare high-grade spiritual stones.
The ginseng doll strung the spirit stones together with its roots and walked in front, while Lu Yang followed closely behind.
The ginseng doll started chatting with Lu Yang as they walked.
"There is a large formation covering the medicine garden under our feet. It is called the Eternal Evergreen Formation. It can help our herbs grow healthily. These transparent stones are part of the formation."
Lu Yang had heard of the Eternal Green Formation, which was a top-level formation used in cultivating spiritual medicines. It was very expensive and consumed a huge amount of spirit stones every year.
"By the way, I heard from Xiaoba that our Daodao Sect is quite poor. They can barely make ends meet in order to support us. For example, during a Cuju match, a group of people fought until their heads were broken and bloody just to grab a ball. Is that true?"
Lu Yang did not dare to respond. Uncle Ba looked kind-hearted and he felt no remorse at all when he cheated the King of Medicine.
"This is called the Illusion-Breaking Immortal Wood. It has the ability to break illusions and see the truth. It can be said to be the nemesis of illusions. If you are caught in an illusion, hold this wood tightly in your hand and the illusion will be broken."
Lu Yang followed the ginseng doll's gaze and saw a cactus.
"That is the Exploding Sun Flower, one of the necessary materials for cultivating the Fiery Sun Dharmakaya. In addition to the ability to cultivate the Dharmakaya, adding any fire-attributed elixir can increase the true meaning of the Fiery Sun, which is of great benefit to cultivators with fire-attributed spiritual roots."
"The highest quality of Exploding Sun Flower is the ninth level. The ninth level Exploding Sun Flower is effective for those in the Tribulation Crossing Stage. This area is full of sixth, seventh, and eighth level Exploding Sun Flowers."
"That's the Enlightenment Forest. The leaves there can help you gain enlightenment when soaked in water. The wood is also the raw material for making top-grade magic weapons. I heard that they are sold at sky-high prices in the outside world. Every autumn, Xiaoba will pick a large piece of Enlightenment leaves for you to take."
Lu Yang had seen descriptions of the Enlightenment Tree many times in books. It was described with all kinds of gorgeous words, praising it as an immortal species and a sacred tree. The rapid rise of the human race in ancient times had a lot to do with the Enlightenment Tree.
However, it was the first time he saw a real enlightenment tree.
To Sancun Lu Yang, the dozens of meters tall Enlightenment Tree looked like the legendary Jianmu tree reaching to the sky. Looking up at it made people dizzy, as if the avenue was roaring in their ears.
"I heard from Xiaoba that low-level cultivators are better off not taking Enlightenment Leaves. Low-level cultivators lack the Dao heart and foundation. Taking them too early is like forcing the growth of seedlings, which is not conducive to future practice and enlightenment."
"This is the same reason why we can't fertilize too much when our herbs are young."
"The older the tree is, the better the enlightenment power of its leaves. The oldest enlightenment tree is older than me and is also the King of Medicine. You will be able to see it in a moment."
"This is called Acacia Grass, and it is one of the main ingredients for refining the Acacia Moon Pill. When the bright moon is hanging in the sky, if two people who are far apart can take the Acacia Moon Pill at the same time, they will be able to communicate with each other across time and space."
"Legend has it that in ancient times there was a pair of lovers. The man was born into a large family and was the son of the clan leader. The woman was born into a humble family and was the daughter of a slave. The man met the woman while he was out hunting. They fell in love at first sight and promised to be together for life."
"However, as the son of a clan leader, he did not have the right to choose his spouse, let alone marry a slave. The clan forced him to marry the daughter of the clan leader of another clan. The two were well matched, and after the marriage, the relationship between the two clans became closer."
"The man refused and on the day of his wedding, he sneaked out of the tribe and eloped with the woman."
"When the elders of the tribe learned about this, they were furious and sent experts to hunt and kill the woman. The woman died in the man's arms. The man was so sad and angry that he committed suicide. The blood of the two people gathered on a wild grass, and the roots of the wild grass were dyed red, and it became the Acacia Grass."
Lu Yang was attracted by the story and subconsciously asked, "It's so touching. Did this really happen?"
"It's fake. Someone made up this story in order to sell the acacia grass at a high price. I was right there when they made up the story."
"… "
