JSCMU-Chapter 171: Profound Jade Ginseng

Yue Zhao said with some worry, “Profound Jade Ginseng is a Di grade medicinal herb. Cultivating it is extremely troublesome. Although it only requires a hundred years of maturity, the survival rate of this spiritual plant is far too low. Let alone a hundred years, even finding one that’s ten years old is difficult.”

“Bishui Fruit is a high-level Xuan grade herb, but it is extremely delicate and requires a great amount of water for cultivation. Normally, it can only be occasionally glimpsed on islands deep within the open sea. Bishui Fruit needs to be five hundred years old. But over here, we don’t have the slightest lead either.”

Yue Zhao listed everything like a treasure trove. This also proved that he had done ample research on all the ingredients required for the Heaven Mending Pill, allowing him to immediately describe the specific situations.

Profound Jade Ginseng.

Bishui Fruit.

Yun Jin’s expression also became serious.

These two ingredients indeed sounded extremely troublesome.

“Eldest Senior Brother, if we can’t find the matured form, would it be easier to search for seeds instead?” Yun Jin pointed out, “Recently, I’ve made some progress in botany techniques and have already become a third rank botanist. On top of that, I’ve made a few small modifications to my cultivation method, my practical ability may even exceed that of a fourth rank botanist! If we can find seeds, and I go all out to cultivate them, we should still make it in time.”

After all, the age requirements for these two herbs weren’t too long.

As for the difficulty in cultivation, she had the Simplification System. If she could gather a few more Emotional Points in the next few days, she should be able to solve the problem.

Yue Zhao quickly said, “As for seeds, I do have a few Profound Jade Ginseng seeds. But for Bishui Fruit, we truly have no clue at all.”

“Then let’s cultivate the Profound Jade Ginseng first,” Yun Jin said directly.

Yue Zhao took out a few small seeds, then gritted his teeth, “That Bishui Fruit lives far in the ocean. I’ll go search for it myself! Little Junior Sister, don’t worry. No matter what, I will find it.”

“Alright.” Yun Jin didn’t refuse and only said, “Eldest Senior Brother, be careful.”

There was no need for further words between them.

Yue Zhao nodded and immediately began preparing to depart.

He wasn’t heading out blindly.

He had money, so he could first issue bounty notices to collect clues and then follow up on them, one by one.

There’s now less than a month left.

Little Junior Sister also needed time to refine the pills.

Ten days.

He roughly had ten days.

During these ten days, he would have to mobilize all of his connections. No matter what, he had to find the Bishui Fruit.

Otherwise, he truly wouldn’t be able to forgive himself for missing this one last ingredient.

Just as Yue Zhao finished his preparations to descend the mountain, he ran into Si Wanning returning.

He and Si Wanning immediately decided to head out together.

It’s not convenient for Yue Zhao to show his face, so Si Wanning altered her appearance and went into the trading market to issue the bounty notice. As long as someone could provide a lead on the Bishui Fruit, there would be a certain amount of spirit stones given as a reward. Based on how detailed the information was, the spirit stone reward would vary. If the actual Bishui Fruit could be found, there would be a massive bonus.

Because the reward was so generous, many people quickly took notice. Yue Zhao and Si Wanning gradually collected a few leads.

After eliminating some obviously nonsensical ones, five leads remained.

Yue Zhao and Si Wanning split up. If either of them found the Bishui Fruit, they would notify the other using the communication token.

Heavenly Sword Peak.

Yun Jin had already examined the Profound Jade Ginseng in detail.

“Profound Jade Ginseng: Low Di grade. This ginseng possesses all five elements. During cultivation, it also requires balance among the five elements. Any elemental deficiency or excess will cause the ginseng to wither.”

Balance of the five elements.

Yun Jin’s eyes flickered slightly.

Speaking of balancing the five elements, she was not worried at all, because the person with the most balanced five elements in the world was right here.

That’s her.

In this world, it’s not that there were no other cultivators with Five Element Roots.

But as they cultivated, their five elements would gradually shift. Some stronger, some weaker.

But Yun Jin was different. She never cultivated any elemental-type cultivation method. From start to finish, she had only cultivated Xuan Jue.

Her spiritual power was completely balanced.

So, could she use her spiritual power to nourish the Profound Jade Ginseng?

While thinking about this, Yun Jin had already walked to the spiritual fields.

Ye Cheng sensed the change in restriction and quickly came out, respectfully calling out, “Master.”

Yun Jin looked at spiritual fields.

Ye Cheng had clearly put in a lot of effort. The once-barren Heavenly Sword Peak spiritual fields were now well-managed, with a flourishing appearance.

Yun Jin couldn’t help but say, “Disciple, find me an empty spiritual field. I want to plant something.”

Ye Cheng responded.

He thought for a moment and said, “Master, most of the more fertile fields have already been sown. There are still some empty fields, but they may not be as fertile.”

Yun Jin said, “That’s fine.”

Profound Jade Ginseng required five-element balance, but the soil quality of the spiritual field wasn’t of much concern.

Ye Cheng was finally at ease.

He led Yun Jin to a corner. This area had not been cultivated yet, still appearing as a patch of barren land.

“Master, I’ll use the Soil Control Technique right away,” Ye Cheng said quickly.

Just as he was about to act, Yun Jin stopped him, “No need, I’ll do it myself.”

This Profound Jade Ginseng favored a perfectly balanced five-element environment.

Then she would give it a thoroughly balanced five-element place.

Since Yun Jin said so, Ye Cheng respectfully stepped aside, watching with curiosity.

Although his master was young, she had already created far too many miracles.

The more Ye Cheng cultivated Yun Jin’s cultivation method, the more he could sense the vast and profound mysteries within.

Moreover.

Although he now reached second rank and was theoretically equal to the time when Master sparred with him, when he actually used the technique, he still couldn’t compare to her back then.

Because of this, Ye Cheng often felt deeply ashamed.

His talent was far too poor. His master even personally transmitted her power to him, yet he still could not cultivate well. It’s truly a waste of her efforts.

While Ye Cheng was reflecting on himself, Yun Jin had already begun.

She first used Soil Control Technique to quickly till the land.

Then, Yun Jin unleashed her five-element spiritual power, constantly infusing it into the soil.

When her spiritual power was nearly depleted, Yun Jin ate a pill and continued pouring it in.

This kind of extravagant pill consumption didn’t move Ye Cheng emotionally. He’s merely curious, what spiritual plant is his master planting this time that required so much five-element spiritual energy?

Yun Jin infused spiritual energy into the land for the entire night.

By dawn the next day, the soil became rich in five-element spiritual energy, and the balance between the five elements was extremely precise. It’s a rare piece of five-element land.

However, this man-made five-element land wouldn’t last long. Once the spiritual energy infusion stopped, it would gradually lose this property.

While continuing to infuse spiritual energy to maintain the balance of the five elements, Yun Jin took out the Profound Jade Ginseng seeds.

There were three Profound Jade Ginseng seeds in total.

Yun Jin planted one first.

The Profound Jade Ginseng’s level was too high. Simplifying the planting process of the Profound Jade Ginseng also required advanced simplification attempts, and Yun Jin currently didn’t have enough. So she could only try it out herself first.
