Chapter 353: Chapter 236: Cultivation World 26_3
Bone-Eroding Vine, a Nether Attribute vine, its surface covered with bone-white crystals, those who touch it will have their bone marrow essence extracted. It needs to be tempered with Supreme Yang True Fire before it can be crafted into a binding-type Magic Treasure called the "Nine Nether Lock," which has a natural suppressive effect on Ghost Cultivators.
Stone Marrow Mushroom, a milky white fungus that resembles ganoderma, parasitizing within the millennium Spirit Stone Marrow, consuming it can restructure skeletal strength, making a body cultivator’s physique comparable to a Mid-grade Spiritual Artifact. However, it must be harvested with jade to avoid instant petrification.
The Gravity Profound Pearl, a black sphere hovering above the Stone Forest, is condensed from a chaotic gravity field. The wearer can reverse local gravity but must endure the side effect of severe Divine Sense pain, often used to break Sky Restriction.
Star Meteorite Iron, a product of the fusion of Outer Heaven Meteorite and the Stone Forest’s Earth Vein, its surface is full of honeycomb-like holes, yet its weight compares to a mountain. Adding one tael during Flying Sword forging gives the sword a "Star Sinking" effect, with strikes carrying a shockwave.
Chaos Stone Milk, the milky white liquid dripping from the tip of stalactites, contains Chaotic Spiritual Energy. Consuming it directly leads to an explosion, requires refinement with the "Longevity Technique" to mend Dantian cracks and reshape Spirit Root attributes.
These are all rare treasures.
However, Jiu Jiu informed that the Stone Forest also has Five-Colored Divine Stones.
Formed by the condensation of Heaven and Earth Five Elements, the Five-Colored Divine Stone’s surface is enveloped in golden, green, blue, red, and yellow auras, can be used to refine top-tier Defense Treasures or to break through the bottleneck of Five Elements Spirit Root.
Legend has it that Nuwa’s sky-mending fragments, often embedded deep within the core Earth Vein of the Stone Forest.
The Earth Vein Spiritual Core, the energy nucleus of the Stone Forest, appears as an orange-red crystal sphere resembling amber, with miniature mountain shadows sealed within. Refining it allows the control of the Stone Forest’s gravity field, and when using the "Thousand Peaks Prison" Divine Skills, one can summon and manifest these shadowed mountains for attacks.
Space Array Plate, a naturally formed octagonal stone plate, once activated can open small space channels. High-level Cultivators often use this to construct a "Stone Forest Maze Array," overlaying Gravity Law to exert pressure hundreds of times on intruders.
Yet, some good things are still out of reach for the Simulation Robot, such as the "Blood Pattern Ant" that nurtures around the rock columns entwined by Bone-Eroding Vines, its secretion used for refining Life-extending Elixir;
After a thunderstorm, charred Thunderstruck Rock giving rise to "Purple Thunder Moss," the best material for making Thunder Talismans;
On a full moon night, Moonlight Stone Marrow seeping from rock crevices, etc.
Si Lingle went in search of these treasures.
While collecting Purple Thunder Moss, Si Lingle encountered a Stone Demon.
But before Si Lingle could act, the Stone Demon was slain by Jiu Jiu.
After the Stone Demon’s death, Jiu Jiu directly devoured its core, beneficial for Jiu Jiu’s cultivation.
Thus, when Si Lingle was gathering Purple Thunder Moss, Jiu Jiu actively cleared Stone Demons within a hundred-mile radius.
While clearing Stone Demons, Jiu Jiu also rescued a Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Heavenly Dao Sect.
Xi Yanmo didn’t expect that the Nine-tailed Cat Demon senior who saved him was actually Si Lingle’s Contracted Pet.
"Dao Jun greets Senior Sister Yunhua."
"No need for formalities, Junior Brother."
Si Lingle remembered Xi Yanmo and later learned that he was a descendant of her Master’s family.
Her Master had also mentioned why he severed ties with the Xi family.
It was because during his Foundation Establishment Stage, his parents sacrificed themselves for the family.
After their sacrifice, his six-year-old younger brother wasn’t properly cared for by the family and eventually died of illness!
Because of this, Yi Heng Daojun saw through the Xi family, harboring resentment.
However, later, upon breaking through to Nascent Soul, he let go of his resentment.
But returning to the Xi family was not an option for him.
The Xi family had approached her, wanting to use some things to persuade her to convince her Master to return to the Xi family, but Si Lingle refused.
"You should adjust your breath first," Si Lingle said.
Xi Yanmo nodded and took an elixir before beginning to meditate and regulate his breath.
Afterward, Xi Yanmo spoke, "Senior Sister, have you encountered other fellow disciples over these years?"
"I previously met Senior Sister Huaiqing, no one else though."
"I met Elder Yi Heng in Ice and Fire Space four years ago, and the Elder had advanced his realm."
"Seems like the Master has obtained a fortune." The Master has reached Divinity Transformation Great Perfection, and being able to advance his realm indicates good fortune.
After chatting for a while, a somewhat embarrassed Xi Yanmo said, "Senior Sister, by any chance do you have Replenishing Yuan Pill, I’m willing to purchase with Spirit Stones."
Xi Yanmo is skilled in Array and Artifact Refining, and although he had ample elixirs, his encounters with Demons and Demon Evil Space had resulted in severe injuries, depleting his supply swiftly.
"Yes." Si Lingle had refined quite a lot and didn’t need so much.
Xi Yanmo bought twenty bottles of elixir and fifty talismans from Si Lingle.
Afterward, Xi Yanmo and Si Lingle parted ways.
A year later, Si Lingle successfully found a natural Space Array Plate.
Once found, Si Lingle continued towards the Stone Forest center.
Along the way, she found some valuable items the 08th Robot missed.
After over half a year, Si Lingle found the core deep within the Earth Vein.
Successfully discovering nine Five-Colored Divine Stones.
When the Earth Vein cavity volume perfectly matches the balance of Five Elements, it can hold up to nine stones (corresponding to the "Nine-Five Supreme" complement of Heavenly Dao).
Exceeding this number would cause the Earth Vein to collapse or the Divine Stones to degrade (such as devolving into Seven-Colored Stones or ordinary Spiritual Stones).
Nine Five-Colored Divine Stones are indeed substantial.
In three years, with Jiu Jiu’s help, Si Lingle further found the Earth Vein Spiritual Core, taking over a decade to successfully refine the Earth Vein Crystal Core.
Moreover, mastered the "Thousand Peaks Prison" Divine Skills.
