Old Five is a Goose.

Chapter 128: The Dumbfounded Second Question

Mo Wuji's hand hadn't fully recovered, and he was very worried about having to purify those difficult-to-purify medicinal liquids again. Although the possibility was low, if the question was asked, he would be directly eliminated.

The plaza of the Five Elements Wasteland Domain was silent. Only the voice of Pill Master Ming Ning could be heard, "...I believe that ninety percent of those who want to enter the Five Elements Wasteland Domain are searching for the True God Flower. The True God Flower is a supreme treasure that can give a cultivator in the Void God Realm of the Third Heaven of the Earthly Realm a chance to enter the True God Realm of the First Heaven of the Heavenly Realm..."

Involved with the True God Flower, Mo Wuji held his breath and listened even more attentively. He didn't know much about the True God Flower. He had thought that if he couldn't find the Boundless Soul Forging Crystal, he could still find the True God Flower and ask Granny Linglong to help him, which would give him a glimmer of hope.

"...The True God Flower needs ten thousand years to mature. It can be said to be one of the spiritual herbs with the longest maturation time. Perhaps some will ask me, there are too many spiritual herbs that mature in more than ten thousand years. There are even fourth and fifth-grade spiritual herbs that mature in ten thousand years, so why is the True God Flower the one with the longest maturation time?"

Pill Master Ming Ning's words really attracted Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji really didn't know about this. He was just thinking that a ten-thousand-year-old Earth Pine Vein was only a fourth-grade spiritual herb, so a True God Flower maturing in ten thousand years wasn't a big deal.

Pill Master Ming Ning continued, "Because the True God Flower must be used after ten thousand years, otherwise it's completely ineffective. Even a True God Flower that is 99,999 years old is useless, equivalent to a weed."

Mo Wuji finally understood. The spiritual herbs he had come into contact with could be used regardless of their age, but the grade was different, and the effect was stronger or weaker. This True God Flower was truly unique; it was just an ordinary flower before ten thousand years. No wonder Pill Master Ming Ning said that the True God Flower was one of the spiritual herbs with the longest maturation time. It was also no wonder that the True God Flower was precious; it simply couldn't be cultivated. Even a pig would become a True God if it lived for ten thousand years.

"In addition, the True God Flower has another characteristic that many people may not know. The True God Flower is like the spiritual root attribute of our cultivators. Every True God Flower has its own attribute, either the five elements attribute, or the wind, thunder, and ice attributes. Therefore, a cultivator in the Perfect Void God Realm who wants to advance to the True God Realm cannot just take a True God Flower at random. He also needs to obtain a True God Flower that matches his own spiritual root attribute, only then he will have a chance to step into the True God Realm..."

What Pill Master Ming Ning was saying was not just the precautions for the competition, but also the knowledge of cultivation.

Just as everyone was listening attentively, Pill Master Ming Ning's tone suddenly paused, and at the same time, he raised his voice and continued, "Today, our second round of pill competition is to plant the True God Flower..."

A sound of gasps filled the plaza. Even Mo Wuji was gasping.

Planting the True God Flower? Ten thousand years? Pill Master Ming Ning was crazy, right? Even if it didn't need to mature, it probably wouldn't be a matter of a day or two for the True God Flower to bloom.

Pill Master Ming Ning pressed down on the noisy plaza with his hand, "Everyone be quiet. Although the True God Flower needs ten thousand years to mature, the flowering time is extremely short. Most True God Flowers can germinate and bloom in just one day in a suitable environment. If combined with rich spiritual energy and human intervention, this time will be shortened a lot..."

Hearing this, everyone finally understood. So that was the way to compare. If it was a matter of one or two days, it would be acceptable. After all, for cultivators, a casual retreat would take many days.

"The first time someone entered the Five Elements Wasteland Domain, they obtained a batch of True God Flower seeds, totaling several hundred. These seeds have various attributes. Each pill master will receive a True God Flower seed and a corresponding attribute spirit stone and ten Profound Grade spirit stones. Now, please each participating pill master choose the True God Flower seed and spirit stones they need and wait for the competition to begin."

Mo Wuji was not completely ignorant of attribute spirit stones and Profound Grade spirit stones. Spirit stones are also divided into attribute spirit stones and non-attribute spirit stones. Most people usually cultivate and use non-attribute spirit stones. Attribute spirit stones are divided into the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, and wind, thunder, ice, etc., and their value is far greater than non-attribute spirit stones.

As for the grade of spirit stones, Mo Wuji had also inquired about it. Spirit stones are divided into four grades: Yellow, Profound, Earth, and Heaven. Some people also call Yellow Grade spirit stones Low-Grade spirit stones and Profound Grade spirit stones Mid-Grade spirit stones.

In the usual transactions and exchanges of spirit stones, as long as the attribute is not specified, they are all non-attribute spirit stones.

After Pill Master Ming Ning finished speaking, ten handyman disciples carrying large wooden trays came down from the circular altar.

A handyman disciple carried the wooden tray to Mo Wuji's front. Mo Wuji saw various crystal-clear seeds on the wooden tray. Each seed was the size of a dried broad bean. In addition, there were also spirit stones with rich spiritual energy.

Choosing the True God Flower seed naturally meant choosing one that matched one's own cultivation attribute, so as to speed up the cultivation. But Mo Wuji knew his own situation. He didn't have a spiritual root at all. It could be said that he was a mortal root cultivator.

Without even a spiritual root, how could he choose which attribute's seed?

"Please, Pill Master, choose a seed..." Seeing that Mo Wuji hesitated for a long time, the tray disciple became anxious and urged him.

"Okay, okay..." Mo Wuji braced himself and randomly picked up a seed from the wooden tray, and then picked up ten Profound Grade spirit stones.

Mo Wuji was seeing Profound Grade spirit stones for the first time. He had previously used Low-Grade spirit stones, which were Yellow Grade spirit stones. At this moment, upon receiving the Profound Grade spirit stones, Mo Wuji truly felt the spiritual energy concentration and purity. It was far beyond what ordinary Low-Grade spirit stones could compare with.

"Please also choose an attribute spirit stone, Pill Master," the tray disciple reminded again.

Mo Wuji's gaze fell on the attribute spirit stones on the side, which were different from the pure white non-attribute spirit stones. Attribute spirit stones all had various colors: red for fire attribute, green for wood attribute...

Mo Wuji then realized that he hadn't looked at the attribute of the seed he had just taken. Just as he wanted to see the attribute of the seed in his hand, he saw a blue spirit stone, with traces of lightning arcs in the spirit stone.

Was this a lightning attribute spirit stone? Mo Wuji's heart suddenly moved. He immediately put the True God Flower seed he had chosen on the wooden tray. At the same time, he smiled at the disciple and said, "I chose the wrong one just now."

Before the disciple could react, he picked up a seed with a trace of lightning again. This was a lightning attribute seed. The attribute of the True God Flower seed was easy to identify, and the lightning attribute seed was even more special.

After picking up the lightning attribute seed, Mo Wuji quickly picked up the lightning attribute spirit stone and said, "Thank you, I have chosen."

The disciple looked at Mo Wuji speechlessly before walking to the next pill master.

There was only one lightning attribute spirit stone in his tray. This attribute spirit stone, which no one would choose, was actually chosen by someone. Did this guy want to cultivate a lightning attribute True God Flower? Even if he was a handyman disciple, he knew that the cultivation difficulty of a heterogenous attribute True God Flower was several times greater than that of a five elements attribute.

Mo Wuji even suspected that it was his illusion. He felt Pill Master Ming Ning look at him again. When he paid attention, it seemed that nothing had happened.

Regardless of whether Pill Master Ming Ning was paying attention to him, Mo Wuji couldn't care less. He didn't have a spiritual root to begin with. It was because he had used lightning arcs to temper his meridians for a long time that his yuan power contained a trace of lightning source power. It was because of this little possibility that Mo Wuji chose the lightning attribute True God Flower seed and lightning spirit stone.

Nearly half an hour passed, and when almost everyone had received the True God Flower seeds, Ming Ning continued, "All the pill masters have selected the seeds to be cultivated. The competition now begins. The time is ten hours, and the competition score is still one hundred points. After this round of competition, the scores of the first and second rounds are added up, and those after one hundred and fifty will be eliminated."

With Pill Master Ming Ning's order, almost all the pill masters began to sort out the soil in the medicine altar. At this point, Mo Wuji finally understood what the medicine altar was for. The medicine altar was originally used to cultivate True God Flower seeds.

This medicine altar was only about one square meter in size, and there was a water tank on the edge of the medicine altar, filled with clean water.

Although Mo Wuji was a Third Grade Mortal Pill Master, he had never cultivated spiritual herbs. He had only planted some medicinal herbs when he was on Earth.

It was really speechless for him to cultivate the True God Flower, which was at this level, for the first time. Mo Wuji looked at the other pill masters and found that some pill masters crushed the spirit stones and mixed them in the soil, then watered the soil and surrounded the seeds.

There were also some pill masters who mixed the spirit stones with water. Some pill masters even held the seeds and attribute spirit stones in their hands, seeming to be using yuan power to ripen the seeds.

Without exception, these pill masters' methods were very skilled, obviously not the first time they had cultivated seeds.

Mo Wuji hesitated again and again, and still used the method he used to plant medicinal herbs on Earth, turning over the soil, then directly putting the seeds into the soil, covering them with soil, and then pouring a little water.

Pill Master Ming Ning, who had been paying attention to Mo Wuji, looked at Mo Wuji's actions in surprise, and finally couldn't help but laugh out loud. Was this guy planting the True God Flower seeds as ordinary beans?

"Pfft!" Qu Wan'er, who had been worried about how to face Mo Wuji, finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Even if she didn't understand the Dao of Pills, and didn't understand spiritual medicine planting, she also knew that planting the True God Flower seeds must not be like Mo Wuji, burying them in the soil as ordinary beans. If he could get a ranking by doing this, it would be better to call a peasant to bring a hoe to the competition.

The black-bearded old man beside her shook his head. He didn't know if Mo Wuji was hiding his clumsiness or if he really hadn't planted spiritual medicine before.
