CHAPTER 1827: CHAPTER 676: DEMON ECHOES, RESTLESS FOR A THOUSAND YEARS

Wood Heaven Plain.

Named the Ling Shang Plateau, but it’s not a flat expanse.

On it, mountains rise and fall, ravines crisscross, and rivers and streams flow gently, with snow on the high peaks never melting year-round.

This complex and varied geography provides unique survival conditions for the spirit medicines planted there.

Previously, it was planned for the three of them to cross Wood Heaven Plain, but not to fly over directly.

According to Tai Sui, the Void Refining True Monarch planted a large number of spirit medicines on Wood Heaven Plain, and to prevent their growth from affecting each other, each spirit medicine is arranged with arrays according to their respective growth habits.

Furthermore, a no-fly array has been set up over the entire Wood Heaven Plain.

In this area, it is possible to skim low, but not speed through from above.

For Luo Chen, now that the Five Elements Lotus Stand is in hand, the entire Land of Fallen Demons holds much less attraction for him.

Including the Heritage Land!

According to Tai Sui’s words and Han Zhan’s deduction, the Heritage Land is likely prepared for Nascent Soul True Masters, and even if he, a mere Golden Core Cultivator, enters, he won’t be able to gain much benefit.

So, his current plan is very simple.

As previously promised, help Tai Sui out of trouble, then wait for the Spirit-absorbing Great Formation of the Land of Fallen Demons to close, find a teleportation formation and leave directly.

However, since he is now at the so-called True Monarch’s Spirit Medicine Garden, Luo Chen, a Pill Refiner, naturally does not want to leave empty-handed.

Picking a few spirit medicines along the way, why not?

Especially!

Tai Sui mentioned that several demon realm elixirs suitable for body refinement grow here.

This made him particularly moved.

After reaching the Primordial Fourth Order in the body refinement stage, Luo Chen vaguely noticed an invisible shackle.

Like a bottleneck, yet seemingly a constraint.

This shackle restricts his further progress in body refinement.

Luo Chen set out hastily, unable to analyze where the shackle comes from, he only briefly imagined it while stabilizing his realm in Penghu.

Either it’s the human body’s limit, only reaching the Primordial Fourth Order.

Or it’s a problem with the cultivation technique, as his self-created "Myriad Paths Confluence" is difficult to continue after the Fourth Order. But this is questionable, because Luo Chen’s Original Source True Fire received a great enhancement during the Blazing Refinement Prison endeavor, and would certainly be more effective if used to assist body refinement.

And the third point, Luo Chen attributed the problem’s cause to the fiery cloud roc’s blood essence he refined in his early years.

After all, his desolate beast body refining technique is derived from the fiery peng’s blood essence, based on the "Sky Roc Transformation".

Compared to Fourth-order Wild Beasts, the mere Second-order Fiery Fire Cloud Roc’s potential has been essentially exhausted.

Unless Luo Chen can replace the source blood, and it must be of the same vein, not conflicting with the Fiery Fire Cloud Roc.

Finally, if Luo Chen wishes to advance from the early Fourth-order Desolation, he must rely on external objects most conventionally.

What is an external object?

Something like the top-level body refining spirit medicine Black Emperor Ointment will do!

Thus, upon hearing that there are demon realm elixirs suitable for body refinement on Wood Heaven Plain, he was truly moved.

Whew...

A breeze passed by.

Three silhouettes landed on a stretch of eerie white rocks.

Looking at the vast pit below, Tai Sui’s face was quite displeased.

"The North Sea cultivators are too disrespectful!"

The Moyun Cave Lord was puzzled, "What’s wrong?"

Luo Chen bent down, grabbing a handful of scattered soil from the rock.

"It’s Green Pouch Soil."

The Moyun Cave Lord was puzzled, "Isn’t Green Pouch Soil soft, unformed, and poor spiritual soil?"

Luo Chen stood up, shaking his head slightly.

"To an Artifact Refiner, these characteristics of Green Pouch Soil are indeed drawbacks, unsuitable for tool casting. But to a Spirit Plant Cultivator, Green Pouch Soil is excellent soil, soft and easy to take root, unformed and facilitating fertilization. Additionally, when paired with other special soil, it can nurture a high-order spiritual soil called Green Immortal Primordial Pouch, which shelters some rare spirit medicines, nurturing them greatly."

As he spoke, Luo Chen looked at Tai Sui.

"If I’m not mistaken, this place originally had three acres worth of Green Immortal Primordial Pouch Soil, specifically for growing some rare spirit medicine, right?"

Tai Sui nodded solemnly.

"That’s right, this was once the True Monarch’s garden for cultivating Dragon Saliva Grass. Those outsider cultivators harvested the Dragon Saliva Grass alone, and even dug up the soil, it’s outrageous!"

Dragon Saliva Grass!

That explains it.

This thing is Fourth Order, with excellent auxiliary cultivation effects for reptilian demon beasts. However, Dragon Saliva Grass requires extremely high soil conditions, and without this Green Immortal Primordial Pouch Soil, it will wither quickly.

If it were Luo Chen, unable to refine the Dragon Saliva Grass into a pill immediately, he would most likely dig three feet into the ground, taking both soil and grass.

The Moyun Cave Lord was somewhat surprised, "Demon Monarch, I didn’t expect you to be so adept in spirit plant cultivation!"

Luo Chen smiled, "Just from knowing a few friends adept in that field, picking up some common knowledge, it doesn’t qualify as mastery."

He wasn’t exaggerating.

Whether it was Granny Yuan’s family he met in his youth or Sang Jiugong, who he befriended during the Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly, all were remarkable Spirit Plant Cultivators.

Even Fu Jiusheng, the Herb Harvester, is skilled in distinguishing soil and the growth habits of spirit medicines.

After long-term interaction, Luo Chen indeed learned some related knowledge.

At this moment, Tai Sui was quite angry.

That feeling, as if a watchdog found that things in the house were stolen, no, the whole house was moved!

He walked several circles around the large pit, muttering, "Even the Yuan Mo Sect Cultivators know to develop sustainably, harvesting spirit medicines periodically. They would never act like these barbaric cultivators, draining the pond to catch all the fish, uprooting everything!"
