Chapter 525: Ultimate Alchemy Location

Li Qiye nonchalantly responded: “You don’t need to know this. However, if the secret among secrets appears, then I’ll take you to experience it.”

Having heard that, Lan Yunzhu didn’t ask anything more. She only knew that this secret must be really amazing.

“Let us go.” Li Qiye brought her into the garden. They didn’t get too far before a soulgra.s.s jumped out. This soulgra.s.s was like a little coiling dragon. If it wasn’t for the dragon’s tail being linked to the mud, making it seem like a type of gra.s.s, then people would actually think that it was a dragon.

Lan Yunzhu knew her stuff, so she exclaimed: “A Silkworm Dragon Soulgra.s.s! This is already an eight transformations soulgra.s.s; it’s only one step away from becoming a dragon gra.s.s!”

Soulgra.s.s was the essential primary leading ingredient for refining fate pills. Without soulgra.s.s, one wouldn’t be able to refine fate pills at all. There were many types of soulgra.s.s, but the Silkworm Dragon Soulgra.s.s was one of the best. It had a very potent medicinal effect, so it was sought after far more than the others.

Soulgra.s.s could have nine transformations and the ninth transformation would be the limit. It was the same for the Silkworm Dragon Soulgra.s.s that had nine different stages. In the three initial stages, it would take on the form of an insect flower; the middle three stages were ones where it would be in the form of a soulgra.s.s; the last three stages was when it would take on the shape of a dragon gra.s.s. Legend states that after reaching the ninth transformation, it would completely metamorphose into a real little dragon!

Li Qiye reached down and plucked the soulgra.s.s. It was unwilling, but Li Qiye’s hand covered everything so it had no chance to escape.

Outside of the grave, this soulgra.s.s was considered priceless as it only grew in the most dangerous of locations and was protected by poisonous creatures. However, in this lost garden, this type of soulgra.s.s was only a common spirit medicine.

Li Qiye put it away and told Lan Yunzhu: “Remember, there are three rules in this lost garden. First, one can only pick ordinary spirit medicines.”

“What does ‘ordinary spirit medicines’ entail?” Lan Yunzhu asked.

Li Qiye replied with a smile: “Ordinary means little King Medicines, basically ones that are three million years old or younger, or ones that have nine or fewer transformations.”

“Could there be a soulgra.s.s with ten transformations?” Lan Yunzhu found the answer puzzling.

This was impossible since the world knew that nine transformations was the limit for soulgra.s.s.

To this, Li Qiye only smiled and continued on: “Second, Emperor Medicines, Immortal Medicines, and True Immortal Medicines as well as divine trees that are at least five million years old can only be plucked if they are willing. If they agree to go with you, then you can take them. However, if you forcefully do so, then prepare to face the punishment!”

“How are the Emperor Medicines, Immortal Medicines, and True Immortal Medicines cla.s.sified?” Lan Yunzhu asked in confusion.

Li Qiye shook his head and grinned: “The truth is that there is no real standard. Some people consider King Medicines with three million years of age as Emperor Medicines, but this is the cla.s.sification used by the weaker alchemists. Once an alchemist reaches a certain level, they will be able to interact with King Medicines that belong in the legends, so the majority of these alchemists consider the ones that are at least five million years old as Emperor Medicine. As for rarer spirit medicines, such as the Immortal Phoenix Gra.s.s, they call them Immortal Medicines.”

“What about True Immortal Medicines then?” Lan Yunzhu asked: “How could medicine be fake and real?”

Li Qiye responded: “True Immortal Medicines are divided into several levels. A spirit medicine like the Immortal Phoenix Gra.s.s is indeed very rare, but it is not a real immortal gra.s.s. Real immortal gra.s.ses come from a very ancient era and were cultivated by immortals. Some people even say that True Immortal Medicines hide the true secret to immortality!”

“Do they really exist in this world?” Lan Yunzhu asked: “A True Immortal Medicine capable of granting eternal life...?”

Li Qiye didn’t answer her question since he was digging up a two million year old Silver Maple Gra.s.s. It was a type of supporting ingredient for Longevity Medicines. A two million year old spirit medicine like this was very rare and absolutely priceless.

“The third rule is that one cannot be too greedy. At this place, you can pick any ordinary spirit medicines without any danger. However, if you are too greedy and pluck too many, then the alchemy garden will sanction you. If there are three, then take two and leave one behind — you should consider this as the maximum. This is already pus.h.i.+ng it to the limit.”

Lan Yunzhu couldn’t help but smile at this point. In this place, little King Medicines and King Medicines were only called ordinary spirit medicines. These were priceless items that could start countless conflicts.

However, she then remembered that Li Qiye was cautious about this threat from the garden, so she curiously asked: “What will happen if you are sanctioned by the garden?”

“Very simple.” Li Qiye answered with a grin: “If you are not an Immortal Emperor, then don’t even think about leaving alive.”
