Chapter 568 - 488: War Criminals Like Su Yuan Should Be Sent to the Immortal Execution Platform!
"Su Yuan, will it... will it hurt?"
"Don’t worry, it won’t hurt. I’ll be very gentle."
"But, Chen Nuoyi is watching us from the side."
"It’s alright, he won’t mind."
No... I actually do mind a bit.
In a gazebo at Hu Hai Manor.
Watching Su Yuan and Qi Hanyan standing face to face, listening to the seemingly suggestive words they were saying, Chen Nuoyi inwardly made a helpless retort.
But she couldn’t just interrupt.
Because what Su Yuan was about to do was indeed important business.
Su Yuan extended his hand, placing his palm on Qi Hanyan’s forehead, and activated the Demon Technique·Finger Spirit and Human Pill.
Along with the pink-haired girl’s slight tremble, a spirit pill emitting a crystalline sheen appeared in Su Yuan’s palm.
It was the Human Pill containing the ’Infinite’ colorful talent.
"Su Yuan, what use does my talent have for Demon Dream Grass?"
Qi Hanyan’s slightly feeble voice asked in confusion.
Su Yuan smiled and said:
"Elixirs aren’t solely for people to consume. They can also be fed to Spirit Beasts, or buried in the ground to be absorbed by plants."
"For example, this Infinite Pill in my hand: if buried in the spirit field where Demon Dream Grass is planted, it can impart some of the Infinite talent’s effects to the grass."
"You should know better than I the power of Infinite; it’s a formidable talent that allows the user to improve endlessly."
After hearing Su Yuan’s explanation, Qi Hanyan and Chen Nuoyi exchanged glances, seeing the deep surprise in each other’s eyes.
What! Feeding an Infinite Pill to a plant to promote its evolution?
Aside from it sounding like a waste of resources, such an idea isn’t something an average person would conceive!
Who uses spirit elixirs as fertilizer!
Truthfully, Su Yuan’s creativity wasn’t enough; this solution came from a speedrun method provided by ’Speedrun Demon Cultivation’.
By using the Infinite talent to enhance the Demon Dream Grass, it could rapidly undergo beneficial evolution and mutation, gradually upgrading from regular herb to low-level Spirit Medicine, then to high-level Spirit Medicine, until it evolves into an irresistible temptation for all demon races in the Cultivation Realm.
This is the nemesis of the Demon Race!
"There’s no time to lose; we need to plant the Demon Dream Grass right away."
Su Yuan instructed sternly:
"Hanyan, immediately contact the Demon Dream Grass merchants from your hometown and have them send the best seedling with urgency. We are pressed for time."
Qi Hanyan nodded solemnly and used a special messaging magical treasure to contact her people back home.
Meanwhile, Su Yuan instantly set out for the Palace of Divine Craftsmen, hoping the Profound Skill Celestial Monarch could help craft a magical treasure to accelerate the growth of Spirit Medicine.
Unexpectedly, Su Yuan found that such treasure did not need extra crafting, as Profound Art University already had ample stock in this area.
Given that Spirit Plant cultivation is a major discipline at Profound Art University.
The treasure of the Spirit Plant Department is a Nascent Soul level magical treasure called ’Withering and Prosperity Shuttle’, combining the Dao of Wood and the Dao of Time into a top-tier magical treasure.
With ample nutrients in the Spirit Field, this treasure can significantly increase the growth rate of Spirit Plants and Spirit Medicine, with the growth rate boosted up to a hundredfold.
Rivaling some protagonists’ golden fingers in farming novels.
With Su Yuan’s current status, borrowing the Withering and Prosperity Shuttle from the Spirit Plant Department posed no issues.
However, after borrowing the treasure, the Profound Skill Celestial Monarch curiously asked Su Yuan about its intended use.
Su Yuan could only brush it off with the excuse of ’decorating the new manor with greenery’.
It’s not that he distrusted the Divinity Transformation Celestial Monarchs; it’s just that Demon Dream Grass’s effects were somewhat unspeakable, and he feared causing unnecessary misunderstandings.
After acquiring the Withering and Prosperity Shuttle, a large batch of Demon Dream Grass seeds was urgently sent to Hu Hai Manor via Teleportation Array.
In front of a ten-acre Spirit Field on the manor grounds.
Su Yuan ground three Infinite Pills into fine powder and evenly sprinkled it over the field, planting three thousand Demon Dream Grass seedlings into it.
Next, Su Yuan asked a gardener to water the field with a spirit rain spell and activated a top-tier agricultural Spirit Gathering Array to gather spiritual power for the Spirit Field.
After confirming the Spirit Field was sufficiently nourished, Su Yuan immediately activated the Withering and Prosperity Shuttle.
This shuttle, resembling deadwood and only about the size of a person’s forearm, flew into the air under Su Yuan’s control, weaving above the Spirit Field as if it were weaving cloth.
The Demon Dream Grass seedlings subsequently gained a hundredfold growth speed, maturing robustly at a visible rate.
"Nuoyi, have there been any recent updates on the Mystic World Demon Race’s vanguard?"
While operating the Withering and Prosperity Shuttle, Su Yuan asked the blue-haired girl observing from the side.
Chen Nuoyi nodded:
"The Master and Mistress have approximately pinned down the enemy’s location."
"Their progress isn’t fast; it should take about half a month to reach our alert range."
Su Yuan nodded slightly.
Judging by their marching speed, the Mystic World Demon Race isn’t in a hurry, which is good as it allows him more time.
He must cultivate enough Spirit Medicine-level Demon Dream Grass within half a month.
It seems I’ve found what I should be focusing on.
Though it might be tough on Qi Hanyan because she’ll need to frequently supply Infinite Pills, leaving her feeling weak for the next half month or so.
She’ll need some goji berries, ginseng, and other herbal tonics to boost her vitality.
A week passed by in the blink of an eye.
On this day, the tranquil Hu Hai Manor welcomed a guest.
"Celestial Hunting Saintess? Are you here to see Su Yuan?"
Wu Ziying asked in surprise upon seeing the holy girl with wings on her back visiting.
Zhu Tianqing explained:
"I’m here to see the Vice Sect Leader. Recently, at the Myriad Beasts Demon Sect, some military demon beasts have been quite unruly. We need her to use Long Wei to subdue them."
After pausing for a moment, she added:
"But since I’m here, I should also greet the Sect Leader."
"Su Yuan and Nuoyi should be in the medicine field. Please follow me."
Wu Ziying led Zhu Tianqing to the medicine field in the manor.
As they approached the medicine field, Zhu Tianqing’s nose twitched and her delicate brows slightly furrowed, her eyes involuntarily drawn to the lush green.
Su Yuan, Chen Nuoyi, and Qi Hanyan were tending to those unknown herbs.
Upon noticing Zhu Tianqing’s arrival, the three of them walked out of the field.
"Saintess Zhu, welcome to my Hu Hai Manor."
Su Yuan clapped the soil off his hands and said with a cheerful smile.
Zhu Tianqing nodded towards Su Yuan and explained her reason for the visit.
"Alright, I’ll go with you now."
Chen Nuoyi responded exuberantly.
"Much appreciated."
Zhu Tianqing said as her gaze was irresistibly drawn back to the medicine field. Unable to suppress her curiosity, she asked:
"May I ask, what are these Spirit Medicines?"
Su Yuan was about to answer casually when suddenly something dawned on him, his eyes lit up, and he rushed forward, grabbing Zhu Tianqing’s hand and said.
"You almost made me forget, Myriad Beasts University’s demon race is the best place for drug efficacy testing! Tianqing, you must do me this favor."
Saying this, Su Yuan proceeded to explain the effects of Yao Meng Grass in detail before handing her a hundred stalks of it.
Yao Meng Grass, akin to chives, can quickly regrow its stems and leaves so long as the roots remain, hence there’s no need to worry about excessive loss during experiments.
Holding a bundle of grass, Zhu Tianqing seemed a bit dazed, only snapping back to reality when Chen Nuoyi urged her.
"Wait... wait a moment."
For some reason, Zhu Tianqing’s pretty face blushed a little, speaking with a faint urgency and a hint of bashfulness:
"I need to use the restroom first. Where is the bathroom in the Sect Leader’s home?"
Do Golden Core Cultivators experience such needs too? How much water did she drink?
Su Yuan’s mind filled with doubt but didn’t ponder further, immediately directing Zhu Tianqing to the restroom.
This holy half-demon saintess hurried away, carrying the Yao Meng Grass, leaving the others’ sight.
"Zhu Tianqing seems a bit odd, doesn’t she?"
Qi Hanyan showed a thoughtful expression.
She could sense something was off, and the others naturally noticed it too.
At that moment, Chen Nuoyi suddenly thought of something, nervously looking towards Su Yuan:
"Su... Su Yuan, if Yao Meng Grass is so potent for the demon race, how about those with demon blood?"
Su Yuan: "..."
Yeah, would a half-demon be affected by Yao Meng Grass?
Before evolution, Yao Meng Grass wouldn’t have any effect, but after consuming the Infinite, who knows if it might develop some bizarre effects.
Chen Nuoyi, with the Dragon King Bloodline, wasn’t affected, as her bloodline was derived from the noble Purple Gold Dragon Venerable.
But the demon blood flowing within Zhu Tianqing was evidently inferior to the Dragon King Bloodline.
Considering Zhu Tianqing’s secretive departure and flustered state before leaving, a terrifying image emerged in everyone’s minds.
"Not good!"
Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi spoke in unison, immediately chasing in the direction Zhu Tianqing left.
Left behind were the still somewhat bewildered Qi Hanyan and Wu Ziying.
It was ultimately too late.
When Su Yuan saw Zhu Tianqing again, this Celestial Hunting Saintess was already collapsed in a small grove, surrounded by scattered Yao Meng Grass.
This holy half-demon saintess at that moment appeared like a cat on catnip, rubbing against herself, her delicate and graceful body rolling aimlessly like a caterpillar on the ground.
Her previously bright and aloof eyes now had dilated pupils, clutching a handful of Yao Meng Grass to her nose, inhaling it rapidly with a look of unrestrained infatuation, her face smeared with the essence, appearing utterly disheveled.
Su Yuan, Chen Nuoyi: "..."
Is this saintess still usable?
If it’s this potent on a half-demon, how strong would its effect be on a complete demon race? Wouldn’t they just take off?
"Su Yuan."
After a long moment of silence, Chen Nuoyi placed her hand on Su Yuan’s shoulder, earnestly advising:
"Burn down the Yao Meng Grass field."
"If you use this stuff on the battlefield, you will definitely be considered a top-grade war criminal and be put on the Immortal Execution Platform!"
