175 Dividing Spiritual Herbs
Su Chen's team of five and Zhuang Bufan walked along a cave passage to find the whereabouts of Zhou Baosi.
Not long after, Su Chen found a beautiful figure carefully in the cave, using the Ice Hidden Spirit Technique to sneak. It was Zhou Baosi who looked panicked.
This invisibility technique in the Qi Refining Stage is too low-level, and it is difficult to hide the powerful divine conscious investigation of the Foundation Establishment Stage monks.
Zhou Baosi was sneaking alone, she was not timid, but no one walked alone in this dark and silent cave, always worried that the mysterious and terrifying monster would appear, as if she was walking alone in purgatory, her heart would be completely swallowed by fear.
Any movement in the cave, and the bizarre shadows appeared, would scare her to her heart and be almost collapsed.
"Uncle Lu Shi! Are you okay? Have you ever encountered that terrible monster?"
When Zhou Baosi saw Mr. Lu, Anu and other six or seven monks appear, she couldn't help but cry with joy. Only then did she dare to show up and see everyone.
"Sister Zhou, it's okay! It's a second-level ice silkworm, which has been killed by my son. My son and Mr. Zhuang have both entered the realm of fake foundation building."
Anu quickly comforted her.
Only then did Zhou Baosi realize that the one who hunted them was an ice spirit silkworm in the foundation-building stage. What was even more shocked was that Zhuang Bufan and Su Chen had entered the foundation-building stage.
The foundation-building cultivators are much stronger than the Qi Refining cultivators, and it is not fearful that even if the foundation-building monster appears.
Zhou Baosi finally calmed down.
The five teams that entered this underground cave a few days ago, only seven of them are still alive. The rest are either killed by themselves or killed by the ice spirit silkworm.
Everyone gathered together and discussed how to leave.
Zhou Baosi said that she found a small spiritual spring, which seemed to lead to the underground river. However, the spring eye was too small, only the size of a fist, and it was difficult to dig.
This discovery made them all surprised. This might be an escape route that could leave this underground cave.
...
Soon, they came to the place where the spiritual spring discovered by Zhou Baosi.
Sure enough, there was a spiritual spring gushing in the cave, with rapid water flowing inside, and there was probably an underground river channel.
"I'll try it out to see if I can dig it out!"
Su Chen threw out the Shadow Flying Sword, cut the spring to dig out the rocks.
The rock is extremely hard. Even with the sharpness of the flying sword weapon, it only cuts a small piece the size of a palm every time. It took a moment and only dug more than one foot deep.
This is already very good. Zhou Baosi's team spent several hours before digging out a few pieces of gravel that were large inches.
The two foundation-building monks, Su Chen and Zhuang Bufan, used their flying swords and magic weapons to dig the speed greatly, and there was a great hope of digging this spring within one or two days.
"Brother Su, if this spiritual spring leads to an underground river, it should not be difficult for us to work together to escape. However, there is another thing to be solved.
Before leaving, we naturally had to collect and take away all the spiritual herbs in this cave. But how to distribute them is a question. Here is a suggestion, you and I will share half of the thousand-year-old spiritual herbs in this underground cave. How about it?"
Zhuang Bufan used his divine thought to control the flying sword, cut the spring-eye rock, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and suggested with a smile.
He put aside all the other Qi Refining Cultivators and divided them up by him and Su Chen.
Although doing this is a bit unkind and somewhat inconsistent with his previous image as a gentle young man, he had to openly be shameless and try his best to take advantage of it.
The underground cave that could have been exclusively owned by him was halfway through Su Chen, a pseudo-foundation cultivator who suddenly appeared. His heart was in pain and wept.
The remaining half of the spiritual herbs are probably only enough for one foundation-building cultivator to practice until the middle stage of foundation-building, at most, the late stage of foundation-building.
As for practicing to the Golden Elixir Stage, he is afraid he will be completely hopeless. When he joined the Immortal Sect in the future, he still had to spend a lot of time and hard work to earn spirit stones and use them to practice in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Zhuang Bufan said this.
When Master Lu, Zhou Baosi and others heard this, they felt a chill in their hearts, but they did not dare to object, and they just mourn.
They saw the abundant cultivation resources in this cave with their own eyes, and of course they also wanted to share some benefits. When they entered the Immortal Sect in the future, they would also require a lot of cultivation resources to practice.
But with their strength at the ninth level of Qi Refining Stage, they were completely unable to compete with the two Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, Zhuang Bufan and Su Chen.
The rich cultivation resources in this underground cave are not the two monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage who say they can divide them as much as they want. They can't even get a slight benefit, so they can't do anything about it.
Zhuang Bufan didn't even look at the five Qi Refining Cultivators, but just asked Su Chen, which was a sensation.
"oh..."
Su Chen's eyes moved slightly and he thought quickly.
Although this thousand-year-old spiritual herb is precious, he has Fangcun Lingshan, and can plant a thousand-year-old spiritual herb in three years. This spiritual herb is not unique to him.
However, he didn't want Zhuang Bufan to get so many benefits.
Although Zhuang Bufan didn't know that his father had hidden his name, he turned into a real man in Hanshan, wandered in the mortal world of the Tang Dynasty, trying to rebel, but he ruined the good things and died on the shore of Taihu Lake.
Su Chen always felt that Zhuang Bufan would be a little threat to him in the future. Naturally, he could not allow this Zhuang Master to successfully obtain a lot of cultivation supplies.
"Brother Zhuang, this is a bad word. After leaving this place, all seven of us can join the five great immortal sects. In the future, we will be called brothers and sisters in the Immortal Sect, and may all become cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Since we are all fellow disciples of the five great immortal sects and have equal status, of course, the heavenly and earth treasures in this cave should be divided equally, each of them should be given one!”
Su Chen thought for a moment and said with a faint smile.
After such a balance, everyone's share became extremely small. Zhuang Bufan naturally got very little.
"you!"
Zhuang Bufan widened his eyes in disbelief.
He originally speculated that Su Chen might want to divide an extra thousand-year-old spiritual herb with a large number of people on his side. He endured it, and it would be fine if he could endure it.
But how could Su Chen think of seven people equalizing it?
Why should he share the same degree with the Qi-refining cultivators?
Could it be that Su Chen wanted to use this as an excuse to get five parts of his team. In the end, Su Chen embezzled the share of four of his team, accounting for five-sevenths?
This is absolutely not possible! Zhuang Bufan is only one-seventh, five times worse than Su Chen!
Zhuang Bufan thought of a possibility in his mind, and his eyes were cold and his whole body was trembling with anger.
"This... Brother Su is so fair!"
"Brother Su, this is a great kind word!"
But after listening to Su Chen's distribution plan, Zhou Baosi, Lu Laofu, Zhang Xiaodi, Wu Qiaofu and others showed unexpected surprises.
Even if a person as honest and kind as Wu Qiaofu is not greedy for money, he is not stupid enough to reject the thousand-year-old spiritual herbs. This is worthy of the spiritual wood he cut for a hundred years.
"Brother Su, you want to take into account the feelings of the brotherly and brothers of everyone. This kind of demeanor makes me admire you. But evenly divided is not possible. So, you will divide it into three parts, and you and I will get one part. The remaining one part is left, and the other five people will share it. This is my bottom line, otherwise you and I will part ways and each get what we need!"
Zhuang Bufan forced himself to calm down and said in a deep voice.
He was so painful that he was dying.
Even if he divided this way, his losses would be huge. From half to one third. The resources he received were probably only enough for him to practice to the third and fourth levels of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
"Okay, that's it!"
Su Chen thought for a while and thought that this was the limit that Zhuang Bufan could tolerate, so he agreed.
He didn't want to force him too quickly. Zhuang Bufan turned against him in anger and caused other unexpected changes.
Now, the weakest one in the cave is his team of Qi Refining Cultivators. No matter which one dies, it is not good. It is better to seize the time to leave the cave and return to the ground to be safe.
...
Su Chen and Zhuang Bufan stayed and dug out the spiritual spring.
Zhou Baosi, Lu Laofuzi and five others went to collect spiritual herbs in the underground cave.
In just one day, they picked all the spiritual herbs in the cave for more than a hundred years. As for the less than a hundred years, the medicinal power is too low, which is not much beneficial for their foundation-building practice, so they left some for the younger monks in Chaoge Fairy City.
The two foundation-building monks each had one equal amount, and the remaining five were divided into one portion, and they all divided these spiritual herbs together.
Zhuang Bufan got five thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, more than dozens of spiritual herbs ranging from one hundred to eight or nine hundred years.
He was a little ecstatic and extremely regretful.
As he expected, these spiritual herbs were sold in the Immortal Sect and replaced with a large number of spiritual stones. It was at least enough for him to use them for more than 10 or 20 years, and he had been practicing for more than 4 or 5 levels of the Foundation Establishment Period without worries.
Unfortunately, Su Chen was ruined and he was unable to dissolve all the spiritual herbs in the cave alone. Otherwise, it would be enough to practice before the Golden Pill.
Zhuang Bufan, Su Chen and others have seen most of the spiritual herbs along the way. Naturally, they know whether there is a shortage of them.
After a day of hard work, the spiritual spring, which was originally the size of a fist, was dug a large hole as wide as a foot, leading to the depths of the ground.
Su Chen used his flying sword to dig a spiritual spring eye and punched a rock wall that was more than one foot wide and seven or eight feet deep.
"Walk!"
Everyone entered one after another, passing through the spring and entering a deep underground river.
This underground river is very deep.
They swam in the underground river for an hour, looking for a way out, and suddenly saw a crack on the surface, and a strong light was cast in.
It's the exit!
