I didn’t expect to see this thing by the river in the Gobi Desert!
A surprised smile appeared on Guo Xun's face. He originally thought that some rare herbs should grow in mountains and forests and other places with rich spiritual energy.
What Guo Xun never expected was that some elixirs could grow in this deserted Gobi desert.
What Guo Xun saw was the elixir he often used to refine his body when he was a medicine boy in the Lihuo Sword Sect, the Spirit-Gathering Grass.
Since Guo Xun left the Lihuo Sword Sect, he has never seen the elixir again. It's not that he doesn't want to look for it.
He also tried to look for it, but still found nothing. Fortunately, Guo Xun felt for a while why he didn't visit the Lihuo Sword Sect's medicine garden.
Without saying a word, Guo Xun went to carefully pick the spirit-gathering grass. His heart was full of joy, thinking that this time the foundation building was promising.
Guo Xun's idea is too naive. If other cultivators knew that they would laugh their heads off, how could anyone use the Spirit-Gathering Grass to attack the foundation-building stage?
Guo Xun's Qi refining has been quite unsatisfactory recently. Being stuck at the ninth level of Qi refining, his Qi refining cultivation has not improved at all during this period.
Guo Xun was extremely happy to get the Spirit-Juling Grass by chance today, and he couldn't help but smile with joy.
"Guo Xun, what makes you so happy?"
Captain Cao He was very happy to see Guo Xun holding some grass in his hand, so he couldn't help but ask.
When everyone heard Cao He's words, they also looked up. They also saw Guo Xun's smiling face and became curious.
"It's nothing! I just picked a spiritual grass, which is quite useful for cultivation. I usually practice randomly. Today I finally have a good medicinal material. With this spiritual grass, my cultivation will be much faster!"
Guo Xun looked at the Spirit-Gathering Grass in his hand and said with a smile.
Everyone was speechless and depressed after hearing this.
I thought to myself, if you practice carelessly, then wouldn’t it be child’s play for us to practice! Everyone could not accept the fact that Guo Xun practiced indiscriminately.
Empress Li, who was fetching water on the side, heard that this so-called spiritual grass was good for cultivation, and she thought that this spiritual grass could be a treasure from heaven and earth!
So Empress Li couldn't restrain her jealousy and asked, "What kind of medicinal herb are you talking about? It can also help with cultivation!"
Everyone was also curious. They knew that some pills could really help with cultivation, such as spirit-gathering pills and the like.
Didn’t you think herbal medicine could work? It is indeed rarely heard of.
Guo Xun explained with a smile:
"This is not a precious thing. It's just that I cherish it when it grows in this desolate place. It would be very common in other places. This elixir is called Julingcao. It can be purchased at any better drug store. It's just that It only costs some silver! As the name suggests, the Spirit-Gathering Grass has the power to gather spirits, and the Spirit-Gathering Pill is made from the Spirit-Gathering Grass. When I practice in the evening, I will teach you how to use it. As for the effect! You have to experience it yourself, but don’t expect too much, after all, it’s not a rare and precious thing, just pick it if you see it in the future.”
After Guo Xun's words, everyone found them boring.
After hearing this, Empress Li felt bored and said with a look of disgust:
"It turns out you can buy it at the drug store! I thought it was some kind of natural treasure! It's boring!"
Everyone laughed, but Guo Xun didn't care. Empress Li also said that this was indeed not a valuable thing.
Soon it was getting dark, and the cold night was not suitable for traveling. When Haishi arrived, everyone came to the river to light a fire and sit together.
Guo Xun was tinkering with his Juling Grass. After a while, he ground the Juling Grass into a concoction and put it into a wooden bowl.
Guo Xun took out a small wooden bottle, filled some secretly, and then came to the campfire.
Guo Xun said calmly:
"This spiritual grass cannot be eaten. You can only take its concoction and apply it to the whole body, and then use the power to gather energy. At this time, you will find that the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth is more easily absorbed by the body."
Everyone suddenly realized that this was the case, and some people found it troublesome.
The person who found it troublesome was Empress Li. Empress Li said:
"This is no different from taking a medicinal bath! There are all kinds of herbs in the medicinal bath, and the effects are not very obvious. Besides, you only have one kind! How can it be so evil as you say! I don't believe it."
Everyone agreed upon hearing this.
Guo Xun didn't know what a medicinal bath was and couldn't answer, so he asked:
"Which of you wants to give it a try?"
At this time, the oldest Yu Dafu stood up. Guo Xun nodded. As expected, only Yu Dafu supported him the most.
Without saying a word, Guo Xun asked him to take off his clothes. Then Guo Xun went to get a bowl of water. Guo Xun was about to pour the spirit-gathering herbal juice into the water.
Everyone was puzzled, and Empress Li took the lead in asking:
"Guo Xun! What are you doing! Do you want to pour this concoction into the water?"
This time it was Guo Xun's turn to be confused.
"Yes! Is there any problem? Isn't it supposed to be like this? How can his body bear the direct application of the spirit-gathering herbal juice!"
Guo Xun said in confusion.
Everyone looked at Guo Xun like a fool, and Yu Dafu also looked surprised and said:
"Why dilute this good concoction? Just apply it directly!"
Guo Xun looked at Yu Dafu in disbelief, thinking that he was a cruel person.
But since he asked, Guo Xun couldn't say anything more and directly applied the half bowl of concoction on Yu Dafu's plump upper body.
After that, Yu Dafu began to practice. After a while, Li Houxiao asked:
"Big Fatty Yu, you are so covered in green, how do you feel about practicing!"
Yu Dafu opened his eyes and thought for a long time, then said:
"It does work, but it feels a little smoother than usual. Maybe my qualifications are too dull and I don't feel much difference!"
Guo Xun was also curious. If he used it the way he did, it would be difficult for him to stay awake, let alone practice normally.
Unexpectedly, Yu Dafu was actually calm and composed, and Guo Xun admired him in his heart.
But after listening to Yu Dafu's words, Guo Xun was not only impressed but also a little confused.
Why did he feel so strong when he applied it himself before?
Could it be because of my special physique?
The golden bead in my Dantian is still causing trouble!
Yu Dafu's honest and funny look successfully made everyone laugh, and Guo Xun was immediately speechless.
Guo Xun had been busy for a long time and this was the result, so he stopped talking nonsense with them.
At midnight, it was the third watch, and the night became colder again.
Today it is Guo Xun's turn to be on night duty, while the others are either practicing or have fallen asleep.
Guo Xun was always thinking about the spirit-gathering herbal juice, so he used his spiritual consciousness to sense it, and found that everything within fifty miles was safe and sound.
Cao and the others also entered the state, and Guo Xun got up and marched five miles along the river.
The woods here are dense and the spiritual energy is more abundant than elsewhere, so Guo Xun decided to practice here.
Guo Xun took out the spirit-gathering herbal juice, diluted it about five times, applied it to the whole body, and began to use the "Li Huo Qi Refining Technique".
