Mo Jinyu

Chapter 690: Dragon Marrow Immortal Spring!


I've mentioned before that Xiang Mantang's talent is actually quite decent—it's just that he lacks aptitude in the art of medicine, which is why Mu Shao'ai didn't want to take him as a disciple.


Later, when he saw that Xiang Mantang harbored an extremely potent Exotic Blood, specifically the Vermilion Phoenix Bloodline, Mu Shao'ai then decided to accept Xiang Mantang as a disciple.


Otherwise, relying solely on Mu Jinyu's threats, would Mu Shao'ai carelessly accept Xiang Mantang as a disciple? At most, he would have been okay with giving him the status of a registered disciple.


So after Mu Jinyu later awakened the Azure Dragon Bloodline, he always felt somewhat inferior due to its diluted concentration and envied Xiang Mantang's robust Vermilion Phoenix Blood!


And now, following the cultivation during the burning of an incense stick in the pond,


Mu Jinyu's weakest link, his thin Foreign Race Bloodline, had finally been perfected, and he barely had any flaws left.


Whether it was talent, root bone, comprehension, or Bloodline, he was now in an excellent state!


With a leap, Mu Jinyu sprang up from the dried pond, landed on the edge, his face aglow with health, and a brilliant smile spread across his features.


Then, he turned towards San Liu and noticed that San Liu's strength had actually increased by a layer. His brow wrinkled slightly, puzzled by this.


But soon, Mu Jinyu figured it out—it must have been his own excessively zealous cultivation, the terrifying ferocity of his resource hoarding that had disrupted San Liu's cultivation.


With that thought, an apologetic expression appeared on Mu Jinyu's face as he apologized to San Liu, "Sorry, I got too excited just now and didn't properly control the pace of my cultivation, preventing you from being able to cultivate..."


"It's no problem, Dragon Master..."


Seeing Mu Jinyu apologize, San Liu felt somewhat flattered, then quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm fine. Being able to improve by a layer is already great, and if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have even been able to enter and have a sip of the soup. Besides, you cultivated so fervently, it wasn't intentional. How could I blame you?"


San Liu naturally understood that Mu Jinyu didn't intentionally drive him out of the pond to hog all the benefits for himself.


It was because he was so immersed in his cultivation that he didn't realize it was causing disturbances in the pond, ultimately leaving San Liu no choice but to leave.


So, how could he hold Mu Jinyu responsible?


"Sorry..."


Although San Liu said it was nothing, Mu Jinyu still felt that what he had done was rather dishonorable.


It was originally Nameless who had provided the Land of Creation. It was already a bit excessive for him to share half with San Liu, and in the end, San Liu only got a sip of the soup, leaving Mu Jinyu to monopolize the rest.


It made him seem too greedy and domineering!


"Ah, let's see if there's any remaining water in the Shennong Cauldron!"


Feeling embarrassed, Mu Jinyu started thinking about how to make it up to San Liu and then remembered the Shennong Cauldron that he had tossed into the pond, wondering if there was any leftover water inside.


With a slight lift of his hand, he formed a spell, and the Shennong Cauldron, placed on the muddy ground, let out a whoosh as it soared up from the mud and flew to Mu Jinyu's side.


"Bang!!"


The Shennong Cauldron landed.


Mu Jinyu and San Liu both looked inside the cauldron.


To their discovery, there wasn't a single drop of water inside the Shennong Cauldron...


However, the seed that had started to sprout seemed to have absorbed quite a bit of the water. Originally, it had only just poked out a sprout, but now it had completely stretched out new shoots and even developed two verdant leaves...


"This seems to be a tree seed?" Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn NoveI[F]



Seeing the sprouting seed, San Liu guessed with some uncertainty.


Mu Jinyu however, was feeling pretty speechless.


The fountain was very important to him, as it was to the seed, enabling it to truly germinate.


It's a shame, for if there were no conflict of interest, Mu Jinyu wouldn't have minded letting the seed soak up the water to nurture it to maturity. But since the same water could increase his own Bloodline concentration,


Mu Jinyu would not possibly give up the chance to enhance his Bloodline for a seed whose purpose he did not know!


San Liu, upon seeing that there was hardly any spring water in the Shennong Cauldron, didn't seem disappointed. Turning his head and noticing that Mu Jinyu looked somewhat disheartened, he comforted him, "Dragon Master, it's alright..."


"Hmm."


Mu Jinyu softly murmured in response.


He felt somewhat peculiar in his heart.


It should have been him comforting San Liu, so how had it turned out that San Liu was comforting him instead?


Seeing the complex expression on Mu Jinyu's face, San Liu said a few words of encouragement and then, suddenly struck by a flash of inspiration, said, "Dragon Master, let's dig up this land and see what's underneath this pond, shall we?"


"Hmm? Yes, let's dig and find out!" Mu Jinyu exclaimed, momentarily taken aback before the complexities in his expression were swept away by anticipation.


Previously, San Liu had speculated that the source beneath the pond might contain a real treasure.


And after his recent cultivation, Mu Jinyu also felt there must be something; otherwise, how could a pond suddenly contain Dragon Qi without reason?


With that thought, Mu Jinyu began to cast spells and start digging!


"Pfft!"


"Pfft!!"


Conjuring large palms of True Qi, Mu Jinyu tirelessly dug into the mud where the pond had dried up. After digging five or six meters deep, there came a thunderous noise as the land was excavated, revealing an underground spring and a set of white jade bones lying quietly in its waters!


"Hmm?"


Mu Jinyu and San Liu looked at the pure white bones, exchanging glances of surprise.


The bones somewhat resembled those of a python after death, but there were differences—for instance, there was a golden horn on the skull!


"Could this be...a Flood Dragon?!" Mu Jinyu stared at the skeleton, making his guess.


It couldn't possibly be just ordinary snake bones; otherwise, the spring water wouldn't contain traces of Dragon Qi to enhance the concentration of his Azure Dragon Bloodline!


Mu Jinyu's gaze shifted from the Flood Dragon bones to the underground spring below, noting its emerald-green hue, similar to jade, yet unlike the surface water of the pond, this spring water shimmered with strands of golden light.


"Dragon Marrow? Is this the Dragon Marrow Immortal Spring?" Mu Jinyu, recognizing the nature of the water, was taken aback, then exclaimed unexpectedly in delight.


"Dragon Master, what is the Dragon Marrow Immortal Spring?!" San Liu asked curiously, upon hearing Mu Jinyu's outburst.


Mu Jinyu excitedly explained, "It's from a Flood Dragon about to overcome the Heavenly Tribulation and transform into a True Dragon, but it ultimately failed halfway, dying in the Dragon Transformation Pool. Its Qi-Blood, Dragon Essence, and Dragon Marrow merged perfectly with the pool, untainted by even a hint of Dragon Resentment Evil Poison. If a person absorbs it, they can undergo a complete transformation, and cultivators who absorb and refine it can advance their Cultivation by leaps and bounds!"


"Is that so?!"


Upon hearing this, San Liu immediately understood why Nameless had been able to transform from an ordinary person into a Master of Energy Transformation, and why in just a few minutes of cultivating in the spring water, he himself had advanced by one level!


So it turned out that this spring water contained the power of a True Dragon!


San Liu looked down at the vast expanse of Dragon Marrow Immortal Spring below, his eyes suddenly blazing with eagerness.


Although he had comforted Mu Jinyu earlier, saying it didn't matter and that he was content with just one level of improvement,


Was he really content in his heart?


If given the chance, he would, of course, hope to improve even more!


Now, with so much Dragon Marrow Immortal Spring available, even though most of it would be consumed by Mu Jinyu, he wouldn't be left with just a taste like before—he should be able to drink quite a bit more!
