644: Chapter 644 Seedlings

"Are you okay?!"

Jiang Xingwan's expression of anxiety transformed into deep confusion as she kept looking Liu Xuan up and down.

"I'm fine!" Liu Xuan spread his hands. "Perhaps my technique is not refined enough, so it hasn't reached the level of causing a backlash."

If a technique is performed with too many errors, it will have no effect at all, and naturally, there will be no backlash.

But Jiang Xingwan did not think things were that simple. She had clearly sensed a force of divination acting upon her; although weak, it had indeed existed.

'Has Liu Xuan hidden his cultivation?'

'That's right. If he hadn't hidden his cultivation, how could I have been subjected to a backlash back then?'

'I have a Spirit Treasure that counters divination. To divine me directly to my face, even a great Cultivator at the Peak of Soul Transformation shouldn't be completely unresponsive. Could it be... that he is not only at the Peak of Soul Transformation, but also far superior to me in the Dao of divination?'

'No! Since he hid his cultivation and his divination techniques, why did he show them to me just now?'

Jiang Xingwan's thoughts were in turmoil; she could never see through the handsome young man in front of her.

"Don't think so much!" Liu Xuan waved his hand in front of her and smiled. "Seeing that you are so sincere, I have decided to give you a chance to become my Dao Companion."

Jiang Xingwan put away her doubts, her face showing joy, followed by a hint of skepticism. "My lord, you aren't lying to me, are you?"

"I, Liu Xuan, have never lied in my life!" Liu Xuan looked at Jiang Xingwan. "However, I do have one small condition."

Jiang Xingwan had an "I knew it" expression. "What condition?"

Liu Xuan picked up the wine cup in front of him, glanced at the liquid inside, and asked slightly embarrassedly, "That Blood Soul Immortal Wine from last time... I wonder if you still have any, Xingwan?"

With his cultivation about to reach the Mid-Nascent Soul Stage, Liu Xuan's guard against Jiang Xingwan had lowered slightly. If he could get some more Blood Soul Immortal Wine from her to boost his cultivation, sacrificing himself for her in advance wouldn't be out of the question!

"It's gone!" Jiang Xingwan explained helplessly. "The most crucial ingredient for the Blood Soul Immortal Wine, the Blood Soul Flower, grows inside active deep-sea volcanoes. Such places are generally the territory of the Yao Race and rarely flow into the Human Race's side."

"Furthermore, the production process of the Blood Soul Immortal Wine is extremely difficult, no simpler than refining a Grade 5 Medicinal Pill. I only obtained one pot by chance, and I usually couldn't bear to drink it."

Speaking of this, Jiang Xingwan's gaze toward Liu Xuan was full of resentment. Liu Xuan had drunk the Blood Soul Immortal Wine, but he hadn't exerted his strength on her.

Liu Xuan was a bit disappointed. A moment later, he asked again, "What makes the Blood Soul Flower precious? Its age? Do you have a way to get a seedling?"

"A seedling?" Jiang Xingwan asked with a frown. "What do you want a seedling for?"

Liu Xuan hesitated for a moment, then said directly, "I have mastered a method to accelerate the ripening of Spirit Medicine. If I can get a seedling, perhaps I can obtain a mature Blood Soul Flower."

"Impossible!"

"The growth environment requirements for the Blood Soul Flower are extremely harsh, and its grade is as high as Low Grade Grade 5. Once it leaves the deep-sea active volcano, no one in the world can keep it alive, let alone accelerate its ripening. Even the top spirit plant masters from the Dao Court couldn't do it!"

Jiang Xingwan shook her head repeatedly. If the person in front of her wasn't Liu Xuan, she would have scolded him for not knowing basic common sense.

Grade 5 spirit plants are basically naturally grown. The best a spirit plant master can do is protect its original growth environment; slightly promoting its growth rate is already considered an exaggeration. There has never been talk of transplantation.

"Never mind whether it's possible or not. Just tell me whether there are seedlings of the Blood Soul Flower or not?" Liu Xuan asked.

Within the Grotto-Heaven Small World suppressed by the wither-thrive life-death cauldron, Liu Xuan did not believe he couldn't grow anything unless it was a Grade 6 spirit plant.

Jiang Xingwan pondered for a moment. "The Blood Soul Flower does not exist within the Joyous Union Sect's territory; only the deep-sea Yao Race has it. I don't know specifically if there are seedlings or how they grow, but I can help you ask."

"Alright!" Liu Xuan drank the Spirit Wine in his hand in one gulp and stood up, saying, "Once you get the Blood Soul Flower seedling or another pot of Blood Soul Immortal Wine, we will officially get married!"

Having said that! Liu Xuan didn't care whether Jiang Xingwan agreed or not, and immediately used a spatial teleportation to return to the Teleportation Array. He was in a hurry to go back and Breakthrough his cultivation.

On the Star Observation Platform, Jiang Xingwan looked toward the direction of the Teleportation Array in the distance and suddenly revealed a stunningly beautiful smile.

'A guy with lecherous thoughts but no guts!'

From the first time she met Liu Xuan, she could clearly feel that this kid was definitely coveting her beauty.

Later, after learning about Liu Xuan's life in detail, she was even more certain that Liu Xuan had definitely taken a fancy to her, but because of some reasons she didn't know, he didn't dare to make a move now.

'It's clearly you, kid, who is taking advantage, yet you still want to negotiate terms and get benefits from me. Not only are you lecherous, but you are also greedy!'

'However!' Jiang Xingwan's smile became even brighter. 'I like it!'

...

Biyou City.

The Thunder Pool in the underwater yin fiend ghost city.

"Hum~"

The electric light moved like snakes and insects, and all the thunder power gathered toward the center, causing the thunder power of the pool used by the Family disciples for Body Refining to weaken, losing its effect for Body Refining.

Dozens of brothers and sisters who were tempering their bodies in the Thunder Pool gathered together, looking at the center of the Thunder Pool and discussing it heatedly.

"What's going on? Why did the electricity suddenly go out?"

"Don't know. Maybe the Array has a problem, or Father is tinkering with some new gadget!"

"Forget it, you guys watch the show here. I'm going next door to use the yin fiend for Body Tempering!"

...

Although the Thunder Pool often had abnormalities, the Array was very stable and had never caused any injuries, so everyone didn't take it seriously.

"Hum~"

In the center of the Thunder Pool Array, after all the thunder power gathered, an expanding vortex of Spiritual Qi immediately formed, and the Spiritual Qi from the Spiritual Vein was continuously attracted into it.

"Is this really just a Breakthrough of the Mid-Nascent Soul Stage Bottleneck?"

Peach Blossom stood at the edge of the Thunder Pool Array, a complex light flashing in her beautiful eyes.

After her husband Liu Xuan returned from the East Sea, he told her that he was going to break through the Mid-Nascent Soul Stage Bottleneck and asked her to help as a Protector.

It was just a small Bottleneck in the Nascent Soul Realm; what was the need for a Protector?

It wasn't until Liu Xuan began his Breakthrough that Peach Blossom realized the terrifying extent of her husband's strength.

"Husband, where is your limit? Why can you always surprise me so much every time!"

While controlling the Array to conceal the Spiritual Qi fluctuations caused by the Breakthrough, Peach Blossom took out a large amount of Spirit Stones from the Secret Realm treasury to compensate for the shortage of the Spiritual Vein.

The Grade 4 top-tier water vein of Biyou Pool should logically be enough to support Liu Xuan's Breakthrough, but the Spiritual Vein also needed to supply the entire Biyou Immortal City, as well as the big consumer of Spiritual Qi, the Teleportation Array.

In order to avoid causing a stir in Biyou Immortal City, she could only consume some Spirit Stones as a supplement.

Biyou Immortal City was operating normally, the Teleportation Array was operating normally, and every moment it was earning a large amount of Spirit Stones for the Liu Family. Using Spirit Stones to keep the Immortal City running without stopping was not a loss.

Half a day later.

The vision in the center of the Thunder Pool Array faded, and a huge figure mixed with blood mist and thunder gradually solidified, finally turning into a young man of jade-like elegance who could captivate the world.

"Mid-Nascent Soul Stage, success!"
