Step by Step Ascend to Immortality

Chapter 123: Chapter 113 Baicao Peak

"Grow vegetables with one hand and grow tea with the other!"

Just as Liu Suiyun finished shouting, Shen Yaqin, who was standing on the tip of the flying sword, immediately turned around. She looked at Liu Suiyun and said very solemnly: "Being dedicated to spiritual plant cultivation is one thing, but you can't neglect the cultivation of the Extreme Yuan Blazing Thunder Forging God Record. And you have to remember one thing..."

"It's grow tea with one hand and grow vegetables with the other!" Shen Yaqin said very seriously: "Stretch out your hand!"

Spanking the palm? Liu Suiyun couldn't help but glance at Shen Yaqin's waist. Although the Landscape Dividing Sword had been drawn, the sword sheath was still in its original position. He carefully stretched out his left hand. Shen Yaqin was not satisfied and said: "Both hands!"

Just because he said the order wrong, he had to be spanked on both hands. This was too strict, right?

Liu Suiyun could only obediently stretch out both hands. Shen Yaqin casually threw over a rather heavy scented pouch: "Your pocket money in the Hundred Herbs Garden. You can't lose the face of our Chonghua Peak, and you can't act like a tough guy either!"

It turned out to be giving pocket money. Liu Suiyun only felt that this scented pouch was not big in size but quite heavy in weight. He quickly said: "Thank you, mistress. Thank you, mistress!"

He secretly felt it. What was inside was not gold leaves or ordinary gems but a whole bag of spirit stones, as many as forty or fifty. Liu Suiyun's mood became more and more cheerful.

"Learn well from your Senior Brother Shan in the Hundred Herbs Garden. Don't lose the prestige of our Chonghua Peak. Don't do anything out of line. And this time it's best if you just go there and listen. Just relax!"

This meant that if he did nothing, he wouldn't make any mistakes. Although Liu Suiyun had such a thought, he didn't dare to say it out loud. He let Shen Yaqin give him a long lecture on the flying sword. Most of it was old talk, asking him to be careful and take good care of himself.

After all, the Hundred Herbs Peak where the Hundred Herbs Garden was located was not the territory of Chonghua Peak. Besides Shan Yunping, there was also a Golden Core cultivator and four or five Foundation Establishment cultivators in charge. Liu Suiyun was prepared to be careful in everything: "Mistress, the disciple knows!"

"Okay! We've arrived at the Hundred Herbs Peak!"

Shen Yaqin had already controlled the Landscape Dividing Sword to land. Before Liu Suiyun could shrink his head, she had already grabbed Liu Suiyun's collar and soared through the clouds: "Yunping, I'll trouble you again this time!"

Shan Yunping watched Liu Suiyun land in a sorry state and couldn't help but quickly come over to support Liu Suiyun: "Aunt Shen, leave Junior Brother Liu to me! Please rest assured!"

"I'll leave him with you for nine days." Shen Yaqinthrow down this sentence and then flew away on the flying sword straight into the clouds: "During these nine days, teach him as much as you can. Don't force it! Congratulations!"

Liu Suiyun still didn't understand what Shen Yaqin's "Congratulations" meant. On the opposite side, Shan Yunping was already looking at Shen Yaqin's sword shadow with admiration: "When will I be able to soar through the clouds and fog and control the sword for thousands of miles like Aunt Shen!"

If Shen Yaqin had the appearance of a true immortal, then Shan Yunping made him feel much closer. Liu Suiyun quickly went over to greet him: "Liu Suiyun has met Senior Brother Shan!"

"What are you being polite for! To be favored by Aunt Shen's discerning eye, you are really lucky!" Shan Yunping was also a sociable person: "We'll be like family from now on. Come and visit our Hundred Flowers Peak often in the future. If you need any spiritual herbs, as long as the amount is not large, senior brother will try to help as much as possible."

Liu Suiyun also smiled: "Then the junior brother won't be polite either. It's a pity that I came in a hurry this time and didn't bring some gifts for Senior Brother Shan's little princess."

As soon as he mentioned his own daughter, Shan Yunping couldn't suppress his smile: "Then it's okay to make it up next time! I don't have any strong points. I'm not good at literature or martial arts, and I haven't achieved much in cultivation. I just married a good wife and gave birth to a good daughter!"

"Good!" Liu Suiyun also gradually became more engaged in the conversation: "Senior Brother, take me around the Hundred Herbs Peak!"

The so-called Hundred Herbs Peak was a peak composed ofSeat by seat spiritual herb gardens. You could find all kinds of spiritual herbs here. Some spiritual herbs could only be grown in extremely harsh environments, such as theYoufengcao, theSanyangcao, and theSeven-star moongrass. But here, these spiritual herbs could also be grown through various arrays.

"The ones planted there areSanyangcao. If you practice the Three Yang Sword Art, this is a must-have. It's also extremely good for making medicine! Although it's not as good as the naturally-grownSanyangcao, it still has about seventy or eighty percent of the efficacy!"

The spiritual energy on the Hundred Herbs Peak was much worse than that on Chonghua Peak. This was because each spiritual herb garden had set up an array to solidify the spiritual energy. Liu Suiyun could see at a glance that the spiritual energy in the spiritual herb garden was extremely rich, and even faintly formed a spiritual fog, and also carried an extremely yang and rigidbreath. Shan Yunping continued: "TheSanyangcao planted here are at most eighty years old. According to the practice of our sect, we harvest them once every five years until they are a hundred years old. Because theSanyangcao in our spiritual herb garden, after more than a hundred years, not only is it difficult to increase their spirituality, but they may also wither and die at any time."

Although they tried their best to imitate the laws of heaven and earth, the spiritual herbs grown artificially in the end had their limits. TheSanyangcao in many secret realms could grow all the way to three hundred years. There were evenSanyangcaowith a thousand years of age that appeared in auctions. But theSanyangcaoin this spiritual herb garden could only live to be a hundred years old, and their efficacy was also much worse.

Liu Suiyun carefully observed theseSanyangcao. The three leaves of theseSanyangcao seemed like soaring swords, and also had a little burning meaning. There was aSanyangcao every few feet. This several dozen-mu spiritual herb garden in total planted several hundredSanyangcao of different ages.

He was seeing the livingSanyangcao for the first time. TheseSanyangcao were taken care of meticulously. Shan Yunping told her: "Each of our theseSanyangcao has a grass record. Especially thoseSanyangcao that are over seventy years old. Even though they are still in the spiritual herb garden, they have already been reserved. If Junior Brother needsSanyangcao, it's best to ask Aunt Shen to say a word."

A singleSanyangcao was not worth Liu Suiyun using Shen Yaqin to ask for. Liu Suiyun pointed to a fewSanyangcao with the most thriving growth and asked: "Are those the eighty-year-oldSanyangcao?"

"Well! These fiveSanyangcao are the darlings of our peak master!" Shan Yunping smiled and said: "There is a special array set up above. It's just a pity that after a hundred years, their spirituality is difficult to increase, and they are easy to wither and die. Otherwise, they would be the treasure of our Hundred Herbs Peak!"

Even from such a distance, Liu Suiyun could still feel the burning sensation transmitted from the leaves of theSanyangcao: "Well, the yang energy is insufficient."

Shan Yunping was originally taking Liu Suiyun to stroll around the Hundred Herbs Peak casually. As soon as he heard Liu Suiyun's words, he was slightly startled: "Has Junior Brother also studied spiritual plant cultivation?"

Shen Yaqin had told him in advance that she wanted her little disciple to relax on the Hundred Herbs Peak with him and learn some skills related to spiritual plant cultivation. He didn't take it seriously and just wanted to deal with it. Now he became interested: "Junior Brother really hit the key point. Although we have simulated the environment where the yang energy gathers, after all, it's still much worse than the real extremely yang place. So the yang energy is a little insufficient. In the end, theSanyangcao can only grow to a hundred years."

Just as Shan Yunping finished speaking, someone over there interrupted and said: "Not only is it much worse, it's simply too much worse. The amount ofSanyangcao on your Hundred Herbs Peak has not only been decreasing in recent years, but also the medicinal power has been getting worse."

Liu Suiyun turned his head and saw a middle-aged cultivator holding a long sword. He was wearing a yellow Taoist robe, and there was a hint of anger in his words. His whole body was emitting a burningbreath similar to that of theSanyangcao: "Could it be a cultivator who practices the Three Yang Sword Art?"

Shan Yunping was a good-natured person. Hearing this person criticizing the Hundred Herbs Peak, he didn't mind: "Senior Brother Liu, why are you so angry? You are also clear about the medicinal power of ourSanyangcao. It has never regressed."

"Well, although it hasn't regressed, it's still not as good as the outside ones!" This person replied: "This junior brother is very unfamiliar? Is he a new disciple of your Hundred Herbs Peak? No, I didn't see him among the new disciples this year."

Liu Suiyun had always been proud of being on Chonghua Peak. He immediately bowed his hands and said: "Liu Suiyun of Chonghua Peak, a disciple under the second master, Shen Yaqin of Chu Nanhua. I have met Senior Brother Liu."

"You are that lucky one!" Senior Brother Liu had heard of Liu Suiyun's name: "The one who won the first place in the small competition? Junior Brother Liu, you tell me. Not to mention that the share ofSanyangcao in our sect is getting less and less year by year, even the medicinal power is not as good as the outside ones. It makes senior brother have to spend a lot of money to buy them outside every year. Do you think it's the responsibility of your Hundred Herbs Peak?"

Shan Yunping had a very good temper and just watched Liu Suiyun and Senior Brother Liu with a smile and didn't say anything. And Liu Suiyun could onlywry smile and say: "Senior Brother Liu, my mistress told me that when I come to the Hundred Herbs Peak this time, I'm only allowed to bring my ears."

Senior Brother Liu was staring firmly at those five eighty-year-oldSanyangcao: "But you also said that the yang energy is insufficient. I am practicing this Three Yang Sword Scripture. I can't do without thisSanyangcao at any time. But the medicinal power of theSanyangcaoprovided in the sect is insufficient, which makes me only able to stay at the later stage of Foundation Establishment and always be a little short of reaching the great achievement of Foundation Establishment. Do you think this is a problem of insufficient yang energy?"

While speaking, Senior Brother Liu only felt very angry: "We don't know how much merit we have accumulated, but we have no fate with these few eighty-year-oldSanyangcao!"

Liu Suiyun thought of it simply: "Senior Brother Liu, since the yang power of a singleSanyangcao is limited, why don't you refine several at once?"

"If I had this ability, I would have already formed a Golden Core." Now Senior Brother Liu turned to pester Shan Yunping: "This is the last resort. Old Shan, talk to your peak master and see if you can give me two moreSanyangcaothis year? As long as they are seventy years old."

Shan Yunping shook his head repeatedly: "This is not something I can decide. Besides, if theSanyangcao in the sect is not as good as the outside ones, why doesn't Senior Brother Liu go and buy one?"

"But the ones sold outside are only three or five years oldSanyangcao. However, I have indeed tried it. For theSanyangcao of the same age, the efficacy of the ones from the Linghua Sect is twenty or thirty percent higher than ours." Senior Brother Liu replied: "Can you think of a way in this regard."

"The Linghua Sect?" Liu Suiyun immediately asked: "TheSanyangcao of the Linghua Sect."

"Yes!" Senior Brother Liu said angrily: "There are so many cultivators on your Hundred Herbs Peak. Can't you compare to a little girl from the other sect?"

Little girl?

Liu Suiyun blurted out: "Could it be Shen Que'er?"
