Chapter 794: Myriad Woods Rejuvenation Talisman, an Unnamed Spirit Tree

Profound Tortoise Divine Lord had never expected that after finally finding the long-sought secret realm of the Exquisite Immortal Estate, ready to make a fortune and show off his abilities, things would turn out this way.

Who would have thought that this legendary secret realm of the Exquisite Immortal Estate was actually one enormous trap?

Not only did he fail to obtain any treasures or opportunities,

he had even been tricked by Qin Ming into risking his life against an ancient vicious insect. He had wasted a seventh-tier talisman for nothing, and his cultivation had nearly regressed.

As for the Spirit-Summoning Demon Fruit Yin Lingzi had promised him, he still had not seen even a trace of it.

If that fellow decided to deny everything and run away, who could he complain to?

Although this was only one of his external incarnations, it had consumed countless resources and untold years before he finally managed to cultivate it.

However, the moment the Flower Spirit Clan's Myriad Blossoms Floating Divine Chariot appeared, Profound Tortoise Divine Lord's thoughts immediately became active again.

If he could acquire this seventh-tier flying treasure that contained its own spatial world,

then even if he had to spend another top-grade talisman, the trip would not have been in vain.

Seeing that Profound Tortoise Divine Lord had spoken first, Qin Ming did not interrupt him.

After all, the man had indeed contributed greatly within the immortal estate.

Although Qin Ming was also interested in the seventh-tier divine chariot, he did not reveal his intentions and merely decided to wait and see.

Given the condition of the Myriad Blossoms Saint Lord, the problem stemmed from a lack of life force. It was almost irreversible.

Even if Profound Tortoise Divine Lord could awaken her, he likely would not be able to extend her lifespan by much.

When Elder Tu'e of the Flower Spirit Clan heard that Profound Tortoise Divine Lord had a solution, joy first appeared on his face.

But when he heard the condition attached to it, he immediately looked troubled.

“Daoist Friend Gu, the Myriad Blossoms Floating Divine Chariot is the last foundation of our Flower Spirit Clan. It is also the spark of hope for our return to the Spirit Realm and the revival of our entire race. Could you perhaps change the condition?”

“I am willing to offer a sixth-tier top-grade spirit herb in exchange. It has eight thousand years of medicinal potency.”

Profound Tortoise Divine Lord had originally intended to put away the talisman the moment he heard that the old fellow was unwilling to use the seventh-tier divine chariot as payment.

But when he heard the latter part, his expression eased somewhat.

“Hmph! Fellow Daoist Tu is quite shrewd.”

“I was wondering how such a vast immortal estate secret realm could be completely devoid of worthwhile spirit materials. So your Flower Spirit Clan secretly hid everything away.”

“After all, this immortal estate is connected to a true immortal from the upper realm. Even though the insect race plundered it clean, there should still have been some great opportunities left behind.”

Hearing that, Qin Ming nodded in agreement.

Still, he had known from the beginning that the immortal estate was a giant pitfall and had never expected any extraordinary opportunities.

The spirit materials, spirit medicines, and two large chests of Immortal Jade he had collected already left him quite satisfied.

Not to mention that Old Devil Qingyang had returned through a fortunate coincidence.

The Silver-Winged Frostbee had also obtained the source power of the Three Ancient Calamities. Its future prospects were limitless, and it would become one of his greatest helpers.

In fact, Qin Ming had gained the most from this expedition. One could say he had quietly made a fortune.

After all, among the other three cultivators who had joined him and Profound Tortoise Divine Lord on this journey,

not only had they failed to obtain opportunities, they had even lost their lives.

Especially Ye Kuchan, who ultimately failed to escape death and perished within the secret realm.

When Qin Ming emerged earlier, he had already sensed that Ye Kuchan’s soul tablet had completely shattered.

Most likely, he had encountered the outbreak of the immortal estate insect disaster. Otherwise, only Demon Marshal Ao Yu or Mogulu would have possessed the ability to kill him.

Qin Ming and Profound Tortoise Divine Lord could only silently mourn the three fallen cultivators.

Ye Kuchan had not only been an elder of the Heavenly River Sect, but also the master of the Enforcement Hall of Skystar City.

The death of such an important figure was undoubtedly a major blow to the sect.

“The position of Enforcement Hall Master is truly a high-risk occupation.”

Thinking of Qianyuanzi’s fate, Qin Ming could not help but sigh inwardly.

Two hall masters had fallen in succession. Skystar City was probably struggling to cope by now.

Inside the cave abode,

Elder Tu'e looked embarrassed after hearing Profound Tortoise Divine Lord’s remarks.

Clearly, he had not fully revealed the Flower Spirit Clan’s resources to Qin Ming and the others.

That was only natural.

After all, the Flower Spirit Clan had vanished from the Spirit Realm long ago. Now that they had returned, they would undoubtedly require enormous amounts of resources for future development.

“Hehe, please do not misunderstand, fellow Daoists. The resources our clan has accumulated within the immortal estate over the years are not nearly as abundant as you imagine.”

“When that upper-realm true immortal perished together with the ancient moth insect, most top-tier resources had already been exhausted. Another portion was destroyed by the aftermath of the battle.”

“The remaining opportunities suitable for Body Integration cultivators were taken away by a powerful demon cultivator tens of thousands of years ago, and their whereabouts remain unknown.”

“Although our Flower Spirit Clan survived within the immortal estate for tens of thousands of years, most spirit resources were handed over to the insect race. The amount we secretly preserved is far less than you think.”

Qin Ming remained calm and said nothing.

The fellow was obviously afraid of exposing his treasures and attracting their greed.

After all, Elder Tu'e had witnessed the strength of both Qin Ming and Profound Tortoise Divine Lord firsthand.

Furthermore, their Saint Lord believed both were merely external incarnations. Their true bodies were likely at least at the Body Integration stage.

There was no need to mention Profound Tortoise Divine Lord. As a seventh-tier talisman master, he could invoke spirit descent and temporarily enter the Body Integration realm, battling the Ancient Moth Insect King for hundreds of exchanges without falling behind.

As for Yin Lingzi, he was equally formidable. Not only did he command vicious insects, but his body-refining abilities were mysterious and unpredictable. Even Demon General Ao Qing had fallen at his hands.

If those two truly harbored ill intentions, the Flower Spirit Clan might be exterminated for displaying wealth before it ever had the chance to rise again.

Profound Tortoise Divine Lord nodded.

“One sixth-tier top-grade spirit plant isn't enough. Add another one.”

“And tell me exactly what spirit herbs they are. I need to see whether they are useful to me before I consider it.”

Then, in a surprisingly generous manner, he took out the green talisman he had been holding and proudly introduced it.

“This seventh-tier low-grade talisman is called the Myriad Woods Rejuvenation Talisman. The talisman paper itself was refined from a seventh-tier ten-thousand-year ancient spirit seed. The talisman ink was made from spirit beast blood containing wood-attribute life essence, mixed with an extremely rare strand of Innate Essence of Yi Wood.”

“Of course, the most important requirement is that the talisman master must comprehend a trace of the Law of Life. Only then is there a chance of successfully creating this talisman.”

“One could say that throughout the entire Spirit Realm, this is my unique creation. Even for Body Integration cultivators, it can reverse decay, forcibly infuse immense life-origin power, rebuild vitality at its source, and resist withering.”

“Of course, its effectiveness depends on the specific situation.”

“Your Saint Lord’s condition stems from her life force being nearly exhausted.”

“Although this seventh-tier Myriad Woods Rejuvenation Talisman cannot greatly prolong her lifespan, it can at least awaken her and allow her to live for some time longer. Living another thousand years or so should not be beyond my confidence.”

After listening to the elaborate explanation, Qin Ming focused his gaze on the talisman.

He indeed sensed an astonishingly dense life force emanating from it.

Meanwhile, Elder Tu'e was overwhelmed with excitement.

After all, the opportunity to awaken their Saint Lord now stood right before them.

He naturally understood that Profound Tortoise Divine Lord was emphasizing the talisman’s rarity and value to encourage the Flower Spirit Clan to present something worthy in exchange.

Thus, without further delay, he waved his hand.

Three simple, unadorned jade boxes immediately appeared before them.

Subtle spiritual fluctuations radiated from them.

With a flick of Elder Tu'e’s finger, the seals on the three boxes opened simultaneously, revealing brilliant multicolored spiritual radiance.

A refreshing fragrance instantly rushed into their minds.

Even Qin Ming, who had spent a lifetime cultivating spirit plants, found it extraordinarily rare.

Inside the boxes lay a section of blood vine, a snow-white spirit ginseng, and in the final jade box, a tiny seven-colored spirit tree bearing a thumb-sized pale-yellow fruit that gleamed like jade.

“Ahem. Since Fellow Daoist Gu has produced a seventh-tier sacred talisman capable of saving our Saint Lord, I must also demonstrate our sincerity.”

He gestured toward the treasures.

“The blood vine in the first box is the famous ancient spirit root known as the Profound Yellow Myriad Qi Blood Mother Vine. It grows only at intersections of earth veins where Primordial Yellow Essence exists—such as forbidden lands formed by the blood of fallen immortals and demons, or the birthplace of earth-vein ancestral spirits.”

“Its greatest value lies in the Profound Yellow Myriad Qi Blood Marrow contained within the mother vine. It possesses immense origin blood essence and ancestral earth qi, greatly strengthening the physical body of late Void Refinement cultivators. It can push them beyond the saintly body realm and into the realm of Profound Body Communion, making them comparable to body cultivators of the same rank.”

“If obtained by an actual body cultivator, the benefits would be even greater.”

“Furthermore, the vine is capable of growth. Unfortunately, when we harvested it, it was only at the sixth-tier top-grade level. Had it continued growing, it could have advanced to the seventh tier.”

“Legend says that seventh-tier and higher blood vines allow Body Integration cultivators to bear even greater primordial spirit and law power, advancing further into the divine realm known as Body Dao Integration.”

“Alas, its growth conditions are extraordinarily demanding. Since our clan needed to flee the immortal estate, we had no choice but to harvest it early.”

Qin Ming was deeply shaken after hearing the explanation.

Suppressing his excitement, he asked:

“Could it be that this heaven-and-earth spirit root was found among the ruins of the immortal-demon battlefield within the immortal estate?”

“Indeed.” Elder Tu'e nodded.

The moment he finished speaking, even Old Devil Qingyang inside the storage bag displayed a look of utter shock.

“I knew it! Qin, your luck is simply heaven-defying. You just came back, and already you've encountered such an incredible heaven-and-earth spirit root. It was clearly destined for you!”

“If my true body were still here and someone dared pull out a treasure like this in front of me, I'd have robbed him on the spot! Heh!”

Profound Tortoise Divine Lord was clearly tempted as well.

After all, treasures capable of drastically strengthening the physical body of a late Void Refinement cultivator were exceedingly rare.

Next, Elder Tu'e smiled when he saw the renewed interest in their expressions.

Pointing to the snow-white ginseng in the second box, he continued:

“This is a sixth-tier high-grade Void Profound Spirit Ginseng. It was not originally from the immortal estate but was carefully cultivated by our Flower Spirit Clan.”

“It possesses thirty thousand years of medicinal potency and contains a trace of spatial dao resonance. Its core uses include strengthening spatial divine abilities, opening spatial cave abodes, stabilizing spatial nodes, refining spatial pills, and even constructing high-tier spatial formations.”

“It has countless applications.”

Qin Ming examined the ginseng.

Its roots twisted like coiling dragons, long and elegant. The entire body possessed a semi-transparent starry texture.

His divine sense revealed rare spatial dao resonance within it, along with naturally formed dao marks accumulated over vast ages.

It was undoubtedly a precious heavenly medicine.

Among spirit ginsengs, it could easily rank among the top five.

Judging from Profound Tortoise Divine Lord’s reaction, he seemed even more interested in this Void Profound Spirit Ginseng than in the blood vine, suggesting it had a special use for him.

Finally, it was the turn of the tiny seven-colored spirit tree.

With a rare smile, Elder Tu'e introduced it.

“This spirit tree was obtained from a ruined immortal palace. We acquired it secretly right under the insect race’s noses.”

“As you can see, it is still in its juvenile stage, yet it has already reached the sixth-tier low-grade level. Because we feared discovery by the insect race, we had no choice but to uproot it completely, making survival nearly impossible.”

“And since it was planted within an immortal palace by an upper-realm immortal, it must be extremely important. Wouldn't you agree?”

Profound Tortoise Divine Lord studied it carefully but could not discern anything remarkable.

“You knew it was precious, yet you uprooted it?”

“Even if it was planted by an upper-realm immortal, what use is such a tiny spirit root to me?”

Elder Tu'e laughed.

“This is merely to demonstrate our sincerity.”

“If Fellow Daoist Gu is interested, you may choose any two of these three boxes in exchange for the seventh-tier Myriad Woods Rejuvenation Talisman. What do you think?”

At that moment—

not looking was one thing, but after taking a closer look—

Old Devil Qingyang's eyes widened.

His expression looked as though he doubted reality itself.

With great excitement, he transmitted his voice to Qin Ming.

“Qin, your luck has arrived again!”

“A treasure! A true treasure!”

“It's actually a Seven Emotions Six Desires Tree!”

“I really don't know what to say anymore. Looks like I truly am your lucky star!”

“When we get back, your true body had better reward me properly.”

Qin Ming searched through his memories.

After a long while, even with his knowledge and inheritance concerning spirit plants, he failed to recognize the tree.

He immediately sent a voice transmission back.

“Old ghost, do you recognize this tree? Explain it to me.”
