Chapter 1894: Chapter 44: The Uses of Immortal Blood

But after thinking it over, Wang Ba put it aside again.

At present, his physical body has not yet recovered, making cultivation unsuitable for him. If he uses this rare opportunity now, it would be somewhat wasteful.

“Better save it for a crucial moment.”

After hesitating for a moment, he stood a short distance from the golden pool, his gaze sweeping over the Spirit Beasts still absorbing Spiritual Energy around him. After a brief contemplation, he then looked at the two Spirit Plants beside him.

These two Spirit Plants, both Class IV Spirit Plants, have been nourished in the Dungeon over the years; the Azure Fire Paulownia Tree’s Spiritual Energy has become more vigorous, while the Imperial Willow has already shown signs of advancement. The former obtained from Fanming, the latter… also from Fanming.

However, that’s not important. What is important is that with the Undying Divine Tree as a precedent, he is very curious whether Immortal Blood has a similar effect on Spirit Plants.

This can also be considered an experiment.

At that moment, he raised his hand and gently drew.

The root of the Azure Fire Paulownia Tree immediately lifted a thick root, and with a light flick, it fell onto the golden pool.

But compared to Cultivators and Spirit Beasts, this time, the Immortal Blood in the golden pool was not as excited. Even though it was extremely close, the surface only stirred slightly.

Clearly, compared to Cultivators and Spirit Beasts, Immortal Blood shows little interest in Spirit Plants.

However, Wang Ba still urged the root of the Azure Fire Paulownia Tree to try to probe into the pool.

The golden Immortal Blood flowed slowly, with only an exceedingly small number of drops merging into the Azure Fire Paulownia Tree, and then no more Immortal Blood merged.

A gentle breeze moved the tree crown of the Azure Fire Paulownia Tree, resembling a cloud glowing with fire, with countless fiery leaves rustling and shaking, yet not changing at all.

Wang Ba was not disappointed.

This proves that although the effect of Immortal Blood on Spirit Plants is not obvious, it still has an effect.

As long as it has an effect, further attempts can be continued.

Then he similarly drew over a root system of the Imperial Willow and probed into the golden pool.

This time, the golden fluid in the golden pool appeared more lively, while not as enthusiastic as it was towards Cultivators and Spirit Beasts, it was more eager than to the Azure Fire Paulownia Tree.

Some of the golden fluid even leaped out of the water, adhering to the roots of the Imperial Willow and quickly merging into them, disappearing afterwards.

Wang Ba felt a surge in his heart and simply submerged the roots of the Imperial Willow further in.

Rapidly, a small amount of Immortal Blood merged with it.

But it ended there; soon, the roots of the Imperial Willow settled down with the surrounding Immortal Blood.

To Wang Ba’s surprise, at this moment, the Imperial Willow standing in place suddenly shook countless willow branches like green silk ribbons!

Numerous Spiritual Energies rushed toward the Imperial Willow.

The trunk, originally about one zhang tall and as thick as a bowl mouth, suddenly soared to the height of four or five zhang. Countless new buds sprouted on the branches, tender green and swaying gently.

In the sky within the Dungeon, there seemed to be a faint flicker of Thunder!

“Is it going to advance?!”

Wang Ba felt a thrill.

The Imperial Willow is extremely rare among Spirit Plants, capable of continuously enhancing its Rank with changes in the surrounding environment. Its sap is very effective in boosting the Spirit Beast’s bloodline, and its branches can be used as magic treasures; it is fully a treasure.

Of course, as Wang Ba’s Cultivation Realm advanced, the Imperial Willow had actually been laid aside.

It had already reached the brink of advancement, and now fused with Immortal Blood, it successfully transformed.

Wang Ba stepped back slightly.

Then blocked the golden pool with Mana.

Thunder struck soon, but its force was mitigated by the Taoist Field, the impact on the Imperial Willow was not significant.

Only a few cracks appeared on the Imperial Willow, which quickly faded.

Bathed in thunder, the Imperial Willow joyfully swayed countless willow branches, as if experiencing a subtle joy of rebirth.

Moreover, countless willow leaves and branches faintly glimmered with golden light.

“It has reached Class V. Once matured, its sap could be used to concoct Spiritual Liquid that enhances Spirit Beast bloodlines…”

Wang Ba gently nodded.

Although he has yet to explore any special effects fused with Immortal Blood, it has been confirmed that Immortal Blood is effective on Spirit Plants.

It’s just that the effect varies.

At this moment, he suddenly had a thought of the trouble Bu Chan encountered during her cultivation.

“I remember my junior sister seemingly refined a ‘Nine-Colored Gourd Seed’ as her Lifebound Spirit Plant. It’s grown for centuries and has only produced a short vine, with flowering and fruiting being far off. If Immortal Blood was fused into it…”

The more he thought, the more feasible it seemed.

Bu Chan’s cultivation involved Spirit Plant enhancement; if the Nine-Colored Gourd Seed could advance like the Imperial Willow, it would be greatly beneficial to her.

Even if it proves to have no use, at least for now, it seems to have no negative impact.

Thinking of this, Wang Ba did not hesitate and quickly found Bu Chan, bringing her back to the golden pool.

“Eh? Your two Spirit Plants…”

Bu Chan had just walked in, before speaking to Wang Ba, she immediately noticed the Imperial Willow and Azure Fire Paulownia Tree and walked straight to the Azure Fire Paulownia Tree, frowning slightly:

“This Azure Fire Paulownia Tree… seems to have changed a bit.”

Wang Ba looked a bit baffled but saw no differences.

But Bu Chan didn’t explain further. Her eyes quickly fell on the Imperial Willow.

She gathered Mana and pierced the tree but couldn’t penetrate at all.

Immediately, she turned to Wang Ba.

Wang Ba promptly intervened and created a small opening.

Bu Chan subsequently placed her hand on the wound, closed her eyes, and soon reopened them with slight surprise:

“How did the Imperial Willow improve so quickly? It looks like an old Class V tree. I recall it was only nearing Class V before…”

Her understanding of Spirit Plants far exceeds Wang Ba’s, noticing the anomaly nearly instantly.

“It’s the effects of the Immortal Blood. I brought you over to see if you wanted to merge this Immortal Blood with your Lifebound Spirit Plant… although I worry about potential issues.”

Wang Ba stated honestly.

Bu Chan was far more open-minded than Wang Ba, calmly saying:

“We’ve all fused with the Immortal Blood. Should there be issues, no one can escape. Adding a Lifebound Spirit Plant makes little difference, but if it’s truly beneficial, it would be a rare opportunity.”

Wang Ba pondered for a moment and finally unearthed the Nine-Colored Gourd Vine planted at the mountain peak, transplanting it next to the golden pool.

The gourd vine was rather short. Under Bu Chan’s guidance, despite his clumsiness, Wang Ba managed to set up a trellis between the two trees.

After the gourd vine wrapped around the trellis, he cautiously moved a fine white root towards the golden pool.

To Wang Ba and Bu Chan’s surprise, as the roots of the Nine-Colored Gourd Vine approached the pool, the golden Immortal Blood inside immediately started to churn.
