112: Chapter 112: The Five Elements Spiritual Object Array

"Over three hundred years? Barely acceptable, but I need to pick ones with good quality."

"Over five hundred years? I want all of them!"

Just like that, while picking and choosing, he unknowingly gathered over a dozen more sets of Spirit Medicine for the ziyun pill!

Added to the previous ones, he now had nearly thirty sets of Materials for the ziyun pill in his hands!

"Thirty sets…" Xiao Yuan felt wild joy in his heart, "If they are all refined into Medicinal Pills, it will be enough for me to break through to the eighteenth layer of Qi Condensation!"

He was even thinking, if he directly underwent Foundation Establishment inside the Secret Realm, how awesome would that be?

Pity that the energy of the creation cauldron was not enough.

"Sigh, the power bank is not enough." He glanced at Su Li and Ye Qingcen, silently plotting in his heart, "I need to find a chance to properly replenish it…"

After finishing picking the outer Spirit Medicine, the crowd continued to delve deeper.

Yun Feiyang's purpose for this trip was Core Formation spiritual objects, or even the legendary Nascent Soul spiritual objects!

After all, once things like Nascent Soul spiritual objects were handed over to the Sect, the rewards would be simply unimaginable! Besides exchanging for a Core Formation Pill, there would be other rewards!

Xiao Yuan's heart was equally burning with excitement. Although he was still far from Core Formation, and as someone with such Five Elements Spiritual Roots, he didn't even know how to form his Core.

But of course, he also wanted Core Formation spiritual objects.

The group continued forward, advancing deeper into the Wanling Valley. They picked quite a bit more Spirit Medicine.

As he walked, Xiao Yuan used the creation cauldron to sense his surroundings.

Suddenly, his footsteps paused.

Ahead was a cliff valley.

On the cliff wall, there were actually several spiritual objects growing that emitted a faint halo!

The metal-attribute gold essence stone, the wood-attribute azure wood vine, the water-attribute profound water lotus, the fire-attribute flame fruit, and the earth-attribute earth origin ginseng!

The Five Elements Foundation Establishment spiritual objects were all complete!

They were arranged according to the Five Elements directions: Metal in the west, Wood in the east, Water in the north, Fire in the south, and Earth in the center, faintly forming a natural Five Elements Formation!

The five-colored spiritual light flowed, generating and restricting one another, incomparably profound!

"This…" Yun Feiyang widened his eyes, "The Five Elements Foundation Establishment spiritual objects actually grow together?!"

Xiao Yuan was also stunned. He had never seen spiritual objects of all five attributes growing together, and moreover, these were not just growing naturally, but were arranged here!

He had an intuition that this should be a person's Five Elements Spiritual Object Formation.

And the ultimate goal was very likely to nurture the treasure right in the middle of the Five Elements Spiritual Object Formation.

The one in the center of the Five Elements spiritual objects had a close connection with the surrounding Five Elements spiritual objects, seeming to grow in mutual complementation.

This was a spiritual plant half a foot tall, its whole body crystalline like jade, bearing a fist-sized fruit at the top.

The fruit was multicolored, with five colors—gold, green, blue, red, and yellow—intertwining to form five profound patterns, slowly flowing across the surface of the fruit.

Every time it flowed, it emitted a faint Dao charm, as if it were the embodiment of the principles of the heaven and earth's Five Elements!

Seeing that fruit, Yun Feiyang's breathing hitched as he blurted out, "Five Elements Spirit Fruit!"

His voice was trembling: "This is a Core Formation spiritual object! A Heaven And Earth Treasure condensed from the power of the Five Elements! As long as one possesses any single branch of the Five Elements Spiritual Roots, and after reaching Peak Foundation Establishment, taking it together with a Core Formation Pill can increase the chance of condensing a Golden Core by fifty percent!"

Xiao Yuan's brow slightly raised!

Fifty percent!

For ordinary Peak Foundation Establishment Cultivators attempting Core Formation with a Core Formation Pill, the success rate was less than twenty percent. Fifty percent! That was more than doubled!

More importantly, this thing possessed the complete Five Elements, making it practically tailor-made for someone like him who cultivated all Five Elements!

However, Cultivators who possessed the three variant Spiritual Roots of wind, lightning, and ice could not use it.

After Yun Feiyang finished speaking, his gaze became complicated.

He looked at the Five Elements Spirit Fruit, a flash of greed passing through his eyes—this was human nature; who wouldn't want a Core Formation spiritual object?

But that greed only flashed past momentarily.

He took a deep breath, and guilt emerged in his eyes once more.

Turning his head to look at Xiao Yuan, he said earnestly, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, this Core Formation spiritual object belongs to you."

Xiao Yuan was taken aback.

Yun Feiyang waved his hand and gave a bitter smile, "Don't misunderstand, I'm not being generous. I've just figured it out."

He swept his gaze over the crowd and continued, "Being able to walk all the way here this time is entirely thanks to you. Without you, let alone finding a Core Formation spiritual object, whether we could walk out of the Wanling Valley alive would be a question."

"On this trip, you contributed the most, so this Five Elements Spirit Fruit naturally should go to you. If we encounter other Core Formation spiritual objects later, we can discuss how to distribute them again. What do you think?!"

Upon hearing this, those Disciples of the Tianjian Sect flashed a trace of regret in their eyes, but none of them objected.

They weren't fools either.

Compete with Xiao Yuan? Could they win the competition?

Even if they could win, by offending Xiao Yuan, could they walk out alive in this Wanling Valley?

Su Ruotong also nodded, indicating her agreement.

Xiao Yuan glanced at Yun Feiyang and nodded inwardly.

This Senior Brother of the Tianjian Sect was truly a remarkable figure.

Being able to suppress greed, see the situation clearly, and possess vision and breadth of mind.

"Alright." He didn't decline either, "I will accept this Five Elements Spirit Fruit. If we encounter any Core Formation spiritual objects later, everyone will share them."

Although he was preparing to gather all eight attributes to refine a celestial-grade foundation establishment pill, once Foundation Establishment was successful, he feared he would even possess all three variant Spiritual Roots.

He didn't know if this Five Elements Spirit Fruit would be useful to him, but having a Core Formation spiritual object in hand could give him a few more points of assurance for Core Formation.

Yun Feiyang breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appearing on his face.

But Xiao Yuan did not immediately go to pluck it.

He stared at the Five Elements Spirit Fruit, his brow slightly furrowed.

He had already sensed that the Formation composed of the Five Elements spiritual objects here was clearly man-made, so it wouldn't be that simple.

After all, for Five Elements spiritual objects to gather together and form a Formation, the probability of such a thing forming naturally was simply too low.

Moreover, although this Wanling Valley had Foundation Establishment spiritual objects, it shouldn't reach the point where Five Elements spiritual objects gathered together.

Most importantly, the surroundings were simply too quiet, as if no Yao Beasts had appeared at all. Furthermore, there were no Yao Beasts guarding it, which was far too abnormal.

For spiritual objects like this, powerful Yao Beasts would definitely occupy them!

"Something is wrong."

Yun Feiyang was taken aback: "What is it?"

Xiao Yuan pointed around: "Yao Beasts run rampant in the Wanling Valley. How many have we encountered along the way? Yet here, it's calm and peaceful, not a single Yao Beast is around."

He paused and said in a deep voice, "This isn't normal."

The expressions of the crowd changed.

Right, how could such precious spiritual objects not have Yao Beasts guarding them?

Xiao Yuan pondered for a moment, raised his hand to make a virtual grab, and a stream of spiritual power probed outward, gently touching that Five Elements Spirit Fruit!

Regardless of why this place was abnormal, it was always best for him to be a bit more cautious. Making a move to test it out wouldn't be wrong!

Sure enough, the moment his spiritual power touched it!

A black figure rushed out from beneath the ground!

That speed was so fast that the naked eye could barely see it! The crowd only felt a blur before their eyes, and a streak of black light had already lunged in front of Xiao Yuan!

Terrifying Killing Intent instantly enveloped the entire scene!

That pressure was even stronger than the Golden Scaled Snake King!

"Careful!" Su Li exclaimed.

Xiao Yuan's pupils constricted, Blood Spirit Escape was activated instantly, and his entire body turned into an afterimage, dodging by a very narrow margin!

Boom!

That black figure missed, smashing heavily against the cliff wall, sending shattered stones flying!

Only then did the crowd clearly see its appearance—

A huge black python!
