In fact, what surprised Kou Chongxue was not that Shang Xia could use the fourth-level evil spirit to dissolve the fifth-level Zhen Gang, but that he could do it in such a short moment.
Shang Xia smiled and said: "The disciple's natal spiritual evil seems to be quite effective in breaking formations and restrictions."
The incarnation of Yuan Gang was noncommittal. There were so many secrets hidden in this kid. Even his fourth-level divine power seemed to be said to have been mastered twice.
How is it possible to develop two kinds of magical powers at each level?
After a gap was broken through the surface of the Ten Thousand Needles Pine, Shang Xia did not rush into it because he had just been shot by the pine needles. Instead, he inspected a large handful of pine needles that fell in his hand.
Kou Chongxue laughed at the side and said: "Don't look at it. Most of the pine needles shot out have a hardness equivalent to low-grade sharp tools, but after being separated from the main trunk of the Ten Thousand Needle Pine, they will soon turn into ordinary pine needles. This one On the ten thousand-needle pine, only one pine needle on each branch can maintain its own quality due to the concentration of essence, but it is only equivalent to the short needle of a low-grade sharp weapon."
Having said this, Yuan Gang's incarnation looked up at the tree crown, and said: "The gap you opened is not big, and the pine needles that were shot out of thousands of pine needles just now are only a small part. I think you can pick out three or five of them." It’s pretty good, but it’s not very useful.”
It is only equivalent to the hardness of a low-grade weapon, which means it is not a low-grade weapon, it can only be regarded as a second-level spiritual material.
Moreover, they were only a few pine needles, not much bigger than sewing needles, which were indeed of little use to Shang Xia.
only……
Shang Xia jumped out of the large handful of pine needles, five three-inch long jade needles that looked like emeralds. He looked at the incarnation of Yuan Gang and said: "Chief Mountain, why do I think these pine needles are of more than two quality?" Level, the force of the shot just now is almost equivalent to a mid-level weapon, these pine needles are probably not level 3 spiritual materials, right?"
"What?"
Yuan Gang's incarnation looked shocked, and he quickly took two steps forward. He took out a few emerald pine needles in Shang Xia's hand and examined them carefully.
"It's really a third-level thing!"
After confirming Yuan Gang's incarnation, when he looked at the Ten Thousand Needle Pine, his eyes already showed a touch of fire.
Regardless of whether it is a second-level spiritual material or a third-level spiritual object, Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue's incarnation of Yuan Gang cannot be discerned by them.
However, it is normal for a fourth-level ten thousand-needle pine to be able to cultivate second-level pine needles. The quality of the pine needles that can be cultivated suddenly reaches the third level. This is not normal!
"Could it be that this ten thousand-needle pine has now advanced to become a fifth-level spiritual plant?" Shang Xia couldn't help but ask.
Although the difference between the fourth level and the fifth level is only one level, the changes it can bring are earth-shaking.
Even Shang Xia might not pay much attention to the fourth-level ten thousand-needle pine, but if it were the fifth-level ten thousand-needle pine, even Kou Chongxue would be unable to suppress the greed in his heart.
In fact, if Kou Chongxue's true form and another Yuan Gang incarnation had more important things to do, the jellyfish Yuan Gang incarnation that was with Shang Xia would have summoned the original form out of nowhere.
Yuan Gang's incarnation stepped forward to investigate with a solemn expression. After a moment, he said strangely: "No, not really."
Shang Xia was startled when he heard this, but his divine perception told him that the pine tree in front of him was not comparable to the fourth-order spiritual plant.
Shang Xia's heart moved, and he suddenly said: "Is it possible that this spiritual plant is in the process of advancing from the fourth level to the fifth level?"
Yuan Gang's incarnation looked strange and said: "No! It's very strange. Half of this ten thousand-needle pine has completed the transformation of fifth-level spiritual plants, while the other half is still fourth-level spiritual plants."
Seeing Shang Xia's shocked expression
Yuan Gang turned into a person and pointed at the crown of the Thousand-Needles Pine and said: "You can understand by looking at its crown. This Thousand-Needles Pine has obviously been severely damaged. Although half of the crown has been cut off, its vitality has not been extinguished. , but it still maintains the quality of the fourth level, while the other half of the lush canopy is full of vitality, and it obviously has the characteristics of the fifth level spiritual plant, and it seems that it has been advanced in the past few years."
Shang Xia exclaimed: "Can it still be like this?"
The incarnation of Yuan Gang disapproved and said: "There are so many weird things in this world, there is nothing surprising."
Shang Xia said: "Then what should we do next? This is a fifth-level spiritual plant, even though it is only half a plant..."
Yuan Gang's incarnation asked back: "Can you bring it out of this cave ruins?"
Shang Xia spread his hands and said, "If you can't take me out, what can I do?"
Yuan Gang's incarnation said: "That's it. Now we can only find a way to hide it, hide it in a place that only we know, and then set up complex restrictions that make it difficult to break. When we enter here again in the future, we can Harvest it regularly!”
Having said this, the incarnation of Yuan Gang once again looked at the spiritual plant in front of him and said: "Now pick the useful things first, and then find a way to hide them, but you still have to restrain your breath first, otherwise this half tree The pine needles were all shot down."
Shang Xia nodded and used the method of "Heaven and Human Sensing" to restrain his aura, and soon he looked like an ordinary person who had never been exposed to martial arts.
Yuan Gang's incarnation took a deep look at Shang Xia, and then he also restrained his Qi. However, he did not restrain himself as completely as Shang Xia did. Instead, he enveloped an invisible water curtain around his body, absorbing his own Qi. All the fluctuations were covered up.
The two stepped into the broken restriction gap and went straight to the canopy of the pine tree. The incarnation of Yuan Gang took a greedy breath and said: "What a rich vitality, but it is a pity that the transformation of Yuan Gang's essence is far from completed. , otherwise you may be able to get a wisp of 'Changchun Pure Gang' from here."
Shang Xia was full of regrets when he heard this. He currently lacked two of the ten Five Elements Yuangang Essences he needed, one of which was the Yimu Yuangang Essence.
As for the natal Yuangang "Changchun Pure Gang" that has been refined by Kou Chongxue, Shang Xia has been able to confirm that it must be a type of Muxing Yuangang, but he does not know whether it is a genus of Jiamu or Yimu.
After Shang Xia approached the main body of the Ten Thousand Needle Pine, he stretched out his hand and pressed on the trunk. The four-square tablet in his mind quickly gave an identification: a damaged fifth-level five-element wood spiritual plant.
Among the fifth-level and five-element spiritual objects needed by Shang Xia, there is still a fifth-level water element spiritual object, and he has already obtained the fifth-level spiritual object of the wood attribute.
Shang Xia raised his head and looked at the mature pine cones on half of the tree crown, thinking to himself: It seems that he can only pick some pine cones and pine needles.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Kou Chongxue's jellyfish Yuangang incarnation opened his mouth and blew, and immediately a stream of water vapor came out and turned into a mist that began to fill the restricted space.
Seeing the slightly blurred vision in front of him, Shang Xia turned around and said, "Are you planning to hide this ten thousand-needle pine tree with mist? But before that, should we break all the restrictions placed by others first?" OK?"
Yuan Gang's incarnation did not respond to Shang Xia, but smiled "haha", and then saw him open his mouth and inhale suddenly, and the mist that was originally filled suddenly gathered in his mouth.
But this time, Shang Xia could clearly see that the gathering mist contained wisps of "foreign objects" with different colors and smells.
Shang Xia was surprised and said: "There is more than one kind of evil mist?"
The incarnation of Yuan Gang nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Shang Xia and said: "Don't you have a spirit gourd on your body? Why don't you quickly remove these evil spirits?"
keep it? "
Shang Xia quickly took out the gourd and followed the instructions, putting all the evil mist into the gourd.
Next, Shang Xia plucked all the pine cones on the tree crown. Most of the pine nuts inside were still fourth-level things, but one-third of them had successfully become fifth-level things as the ten thousand-needle pine advanced. In short Let the two of them make this trip worthwhile.
These fifth-level pine nuts are not only used to brew spiritual wine, but are also eaten directly. They are quite beneficial to fifth-level warriors.
The only pity is that the quantity is too small.
Originally there were three levels of pine needles above the tree crown that could be picked, but both Shang Xia and Yuan Gang incarnations chose to ignore this.
It's not because these third-level pine needles are still out of sight of the two of them, and they are too lazy to spend time picking them one by one.
Instead, the two of them deliberately kept these pine needles in order to prevent them from giving each other a "surprise" next time the Ten Thousand Needle Pine was found by others in advance.
After picking the pine cones, Shang Xia was about to break the ban on the Ten Thousand Needle Pine, but unexpectedly Yuangang's incarnation said again: "Pick a suitable branch and take it off."
Shang Xia was slightly startled. Although the extremely weird part of this Ten Thousand Needles Pine had advanced to the fifth level, the quality of even the more important branches in the lush half of the tree crown had only just passed the fourth level.
If this Thousand-Needle Pine advances to the fifth level, then everything on its body will become a fifth-level thing.
Shang Xia thought for a while and nodded. Without using his evil spirit, he climbed to the tree and chopped off a straight branch as thick as an egg.
Yuan Gang's incarnation saw Shang Xia cutting off the branches on it, and said with a smile: "Leave it to the people in Qitang to take care of it, and it will be a good spear shaft and a top-grade sharp weapon."
Next, Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue's Yuan Gang incarnation teamed up to break the restrictions surrounding the Ten Thousand Needles Pine, and then placed new restrictions. Then they found a secret, remote and dangerous location to remove this fifth-level spiritual tree. Zhi hid here, and then set up forbidden traps around it. Finally, Yuan Gang's incarnation laid down a layer of mist and water curtain to hide that area.
Unless you can find it, or you are extremely lucky, it may not be easy to find this fifth-level Ten Thousand Needles Pine.
Until this time, the two finally relaxed and prepared to leave.
However, the incarnation of Yuan Gang noticed that Shang Xia seemed thoughtful and misunderstood that he was worried that the Ten Thousand Needles Pine was not hidden enough, so he smiled and said: "Don't worry, when the Cave Sky Ruins are opened again, everyone will rush in together. We can rush to find this pine tree as soon as possible without worrying about being beaten by others. Besides...where did you learn the method of setting up the formation? Directly connect the vitality of the spiritual plant with the restriction, and force it To break the restriction is to destroy the Ten Thousand Needles Pine, so cruel!"
Shang Xia shook his head and said: "It's not that the disciple is worried about this, but... the disciple feels that if he can advance to the fifth level of heaven this time, the other half of the crown of the Ten Thousand Needles Pine may be able to restore life. Become a fifth-level spiritual plant."
Yuan Gang's incarnation suddenly stopped when he heard the words.
When Shang Xia turned to look at him in surprise, he saw Yuan Gang's incarnation looking at Shang Xia with piercing eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Are you sure you can do it?"
Shang Xia was a little confused, but he still said: "I'm 70-80% sure. The vitality of half of the crown of the Ten Thousand Needle Pine should be suppressed by some kind of Yuangang Qi. It only needs to be expelled from the branches to resolve it." , the spiritual plant will naturally recover on its own."
Yuan Gang's incarnation said in a deep voice: "Don't talk about this matter to anyone for the time being."
Shang Xia was still waiting to ask again, but the incarnation of Yuangang waved his hand and said: "I will explain it to you later. In short, this matter is very important."
