CHAPTER 673: CHAPTER 417: PARTING!

Yan Chuan takes the treasure, it’s a give and take.

He takes the ’Wine Worm Fruit’ from the ’Golden Vulture’, and repays with ’Drunken Boxing’ and ’Eagle Form’, teaching thoroughly.

He takes the ’Cloud Snail Bamboo Flower’ from the ’Grey Golden Kite’, and repays with ’Eagle Form’, also teaching thoroughly.

Although it’s a forced buy and sell, after considering the "mutual teaching and learning," Yan Chuan can ’win twice’, but to the Golden Vulture and the Grey Golden Kite, it’s somewhat of a compensation.

"Off you go!"

After obtaining the ’Cloud Snail Bamboo Flower’, Yan Chuan sees it, and with a "Big Stone Breaking Hand" slams the first kite flying, then uses the "Shakyamuni Elephant Throwing Skill" to toss the second, causing the second kite to collide even faster into the first—

Boom!

The two Grey Golden Kites collide, shattering countless muscle and bones, falling to the ground, crashing into the forest, miserably, yet fiercely.

"Go!"

Yan Chuan doesn’t care.

He enjoyed this battle, and after getting his thrill and the treasure, he leaves without hesitation.

...

"Golden Vulture, Wine Worm Fruit."

"Double-headed Duck, Spirit Candle Fruit."

"Silver Armored Horned Python, Replenishing Essence Mushroom."

"Green Water Crocodile, none."

"Grey Golden Kite, Cloud Snail Bamboo Flower."

...

Yan Chuan and Chen Ze return to Iron Arm Monkey Mountain, starting from the Golden Vulture and ending with the Grey Golden Kite, the two had already gone to five locations occupied by beast kings, fighting five times according to the map.

Among them, the Golden Vulture was the strongest in power, and the harvest of the ’Wine Worm Fruit’ was the greatest.

For the remaining four locations, even for the paired Grey Golden Kites, their strength was mediocre, not at all a match for either Yan Chuan or Chen Ze, making the fights and treasure acquisition easy, but the value of the treasures was a notch below the ’Wine Worm Fruit’.

"A total of twenty ’Cloud Snail Bamboo Flowers’, previously Old Yan got one less centennial ’Wine Worm Fruit’, Brother Chen got one less ’Spirit Candle Fruit’, this time I’ll take one less flower."

Wang Zhengyi sat at home while great medicine fell from the sky, Yan Chuan and Chen Ze both worked for him, feeling quite undeserving. After receiving the ’Cloud Snail Bamboo Flower’, he took out two wooden boxes: "These are treasures the Alligator Beast obtained from the bottom of Nanyue Lake. The left box contains ’Hundred Rivers Return Grass’, Old Yan you’ve used it before, you know its wonders, I won’t elaborate. The right box contains ’Water Essence’, which you’ve also used, you know its effects, I won’t elaborate either."

Wang Zhengyi looked towards Chen Ze and Yan Chuan: "’Hundred Rivers Return Grass’ and ’Water Essence’, you two don’t need them now, but Old Yan, you have disciples and a master, they’ll definitely be of use."

Water Essence!

Hundred Rivers Return Grass!

"What great treasures!"

Yan Chuan was delighted.

He had indeed used both treasures, among them ’Water Essence’ was once given by Wang Zhengyi at Divine Doctor Valley on the edge of Nanyue Lake.

This is a Nanyue Lake specialty, capable of helping one enter a state of clarity and purity, with qi and blood surging. In the calm of the heart and the extreme movement of qi and blood, it rapidly refines the body. When used with ’Essence Stone’, the effect is excellent, with enough Essence Stone, over ten bones can be easily tempered in a short time.

Yan Chuan, who had just broken the limit not long ago, saw his strength progress rapidly with the ’Water Essence’, it was a great help.

’Water Essence’ is rare, only born in water, possessing spirituality, moving with tidal currents, hard to come by.

On one hand, it’s because ’Water Essence’ is secretive, skilled in concealment, and difficult to find.

On the other hand, the broader ’Nanyue Lake’ refers to the ’Nanyue Lake itself’ and the surrounding mountains within a radius of several hundred miles, including the area of Iron Arm Monkey Mountain, belonging to ’Nanyue Lake’, commonly known as ’Nanyue Lake’.

’Water Essence’ is born in ’Nanyue Lake itself’, in the lake water, at the bottom of the lake, where dangers are even greater than in the mountains. The fish and alien beasts at the bottom of the lake are vicious and dangerous, even Limit-breaking Martial Artists or Innate Divine Generals do not dare to enter the water lightly.

’Nanyue Lake’ is dangerous!

’Nanyue Lake itself’ is even more of an absolute danger zone!

’Water Essence’ is born at the lake bottom, regardless of the quantity, how many dare to go down? Even if they hurriedly went down the lake, how many can find the ’Water Essence’? Even if found, how many can come out safely from the alien beasts at the lake bottom?

Too difficult!

Too risky!

Yan Chuan was initially puzzled about how Wang Zhengyi obtained ’Water Essence’, wondered then, until today, he finally knew: "Old Wang, you have the Alligator Beast Avatar, moving freely in water, naturally having an advantage in acquiring such water treasure as ’Water Essence’."

Yan Chuan came to realization.

He opened the wooden box, inside packed with over thirty ’Water Essences’, ten times as many as before!

"This—"

This is invaluable, Yan Chuan thought of Wang Kuan: "Over at Old Wang’s side—"

"Of course, I won’t forget about my father."

Wang Zhengyi waved his hand: "I’ve already prepared his share long ago."

That’s good.

Yan Chuan felt at ease, smiling as he accepted the ’Water Essence’.

As for the ’Hundred Rivers Return Grass’—

...

"Master, this item is called ’Hundred Rivers Return Grass’, it can be born and grow only in a place like Nanyue Lake where hundreds of rivers converge. When swallowed raw, it can cause the Inner Power in one’s meridians and the Inner Strength in one’s body to undergo an effect similar to ’Hundred Rivers Return’, allowing you to establish the Dan Tian Qi Sea even before reaching the Peak, making the cultivation speed before the Peak extraordinarily fast!"

On that day, Yan Chuan traveled five hundred miles back to Nanxiong City, having a private meeting once again with Cheng Fengxiao, handing over the ’Hundred Rivers Return Grass’ to his master.

Hundred Rivers Return Grass!

This item, like the ’Water Essence’, was obtained by Wang Zhengyi through the unique advantage of his ’Alligator Beast Avatar’ in Nanyue Lake, greatly aiding Martial Artists in the Postnatal Realm.

During the process of the Cang Mountain Sword Discussion, Wang Zhengyi once offered Yan Chuan a ’Hundred Rivers Return Grass’, allowing him to establish the Dan Tian Qi Sea early, accelerating his cultivation speed, significantly shortening the time required to reach the Peak State.
