Chapter 134: Nine Illusion Sky Orchid and Degree-Extinguishi

finally noticed them, caught off guard. Before she could even react, Yue Sanren had fallen into a perilous situation.Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!'Rumble rumble…''A d...Qin Sang passed Wen Shidi's waist token to him and explained a few things.

“I wish to inquire about the sect’s treasured collection of alchemical texts, or perhaps ancient scrolls concerning spirit herbs. I would be most grateful if Brother Zhang could grant me access.”

“Okay, okay…”

Zhang Shixiong readily agreed and personally led Qin Sang toward the rear hall. The hall was divided into several private rooms, each sealed with restrictions. Above the arched doorways were inscriptions: "Qi," "Fu," "Zhen," and "Dan." Each room housed rows of wooden shelves, giving Qin Sang a feeling reminiscent of entering a library in his past life.

Walking all the way to the innermost part, Zhang Shixiong lifted the restrictions on the alchemy room and pointed to the rows of wooden shelves inside: "Qin Shidi, these ancient books are mainly about spiritual herbs and alchemy. However, most of them are based on myths and legends. You can browse them freely. Some jade slips contain alchemical formulas, while others are collected by our sect's experiences in refining pills. You can only view a portion of them. If you want to see the full content, you need to pay some spirit stones..."

Qin Sang stepped forward and discovered that most of the ancient books were dilapidated, but they were all protected by a layer of spiritual light, preventing them from being destroyed by time. There weren't many jade slips, however.

Now, in the cultivation world, spirit herbs are scarce and alchemy is declining. Besides the Taiyi Danzong sect that bases its power on alchemy, other sects, even if they want to pay attention to alchemy, lack the resources to do so.

After Qin Sang proactively paid the spirit stones, Zhang shidi nodded in satisfaction and said, “Junior Brother Qin, just take your time to carefully review them. If you need anything, just call me. I won’t disturb you any further.”

After Zhang Shixiong left, Qin Sang walked to where the jade slips were placed and picked up one by one to examine them.

The Jade Scroll's alchemy formulas only contain descriptions of the elixir's effects, the required herbs and their characteristics, and medicinal properties. The specific details of the alchemical process are locked away and require spirit stones to view. However, he had no energy to focus on alchemy and didn't need to see those parts.

He came over with two purposes.

A person searching for a mysterious orchid.

And another thing, I want to see if there's any elixir or panacea that can make up for the foundation, so that in the future, when traveling outside, I won't miss out on opportunities because I don't recognize them when I see them.

After just a short while, Qin Sang had finished reading through the jade slips. Then, with great care, he picked up the ancient book and began to read it.

Although the ancient texts were filled with outlandish myths and legends, there were also many strange occurrences that opened Qin Sang's eyes wide. It took him a whole afternoon to finish reading all the ancient books.

After putting the last ancient book back, Qin Sang frowned slightly, a thoughtful look on her face.

From so many ancient texts and jade slips, he did learn of two spirit herbs that could repair a damaged foundation to its original state. One was called Daojing Grass, and the other was Crimson Cloud Purple Fruit. They were both seen in ancient texts, only mentioned in passing within some legendary stories.

These two elixirs, what they look like, where they grow, and if there are any taboos when consuming them, are all completely unmentioned. Qin Sang is still clueless.

These ancient texts mention spiritual herbs, none of which correspond to the mysterious orchid.

Qin Sang stood up, committing both kinds of herbs and the stories behind them to memory. He then turned and walked out of the alchemy room, greeting Zhang Shixiong. Just as he was about to leave Baotashan Peak, Qin Sang suddenly felt a stirring in his heart, stopped, and turned back to ask, "Zhang Shixiong, are all the sect's alchemical texts within the alchemy room"

Zhang shidi replied, "Most of them are collected here. There are also some rare prescriptions and important ancient books collected in the inner hall. However, because the inner hall involves secrets, disciples are not generally allowed to enter at will..."

Qin Sang secretly thought that there might be something he wanted inside. This person's evasive and hesitant behavior suggested that they wanted some kind of benefit.

It's a pity he wasn't in the mood to haggle here. His expression turned slightly solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Senior Brother Zhang, what do you require to enter the inner hall Do we need a decree from a Golden Core expert to enter"

Zhang senior brother's expression changed a little, he gave a dry laugh and said repeatedly: "Qin junior brother speaks too seriously, how could I disturb Master Ma Mu because of such a trivial matter. It's just a few more spirit stones than outside, if Qin junior brother is interested, I'll go help you open the inner hall right now."

The jade slips and ancient books inside the main hall were far fewer than those outside. Qin Sang finished reading them all in no time and left Baotashan Peak with a complex expression. He had indeed found a record related to the mysterious orchid in one of the jade slips inside the main hall.

This jade slip was an heirloom of a master alchemist, containing the master's insights and experiences throughout his life, mostly related to alchemy.

There is a record of one orchid named Jiuhuan Tianlan.

The Nine Illusion Heavenly Orchid's flower bud had a wisp of smoke hovering above it, evolving into celestial bodies, mountains and rivers, strange beasts and exotic plants, carriages and pedestrians. It was as if a miniature world existed within the flower, perfectly mirroring the orchid itself.

Furthermore, what's even more magical is that before the elixir matures, the Jiuhuan Tianlan orchid will transform into nine different types of orchid forms. The alchemist called this transformation.

Only after nine metamorphoses does the orchid become a true Nine Illusion Heavenly Orchid, and each metamorphosis takes five hundred years.

Before its first metamorphosis, the Jiuhua Tianlan appeared as an ordinary spiritual herb.

After its first metamorphosis, a flower bloomed, taking the form of an ordinary gladiolus. It appeared to be a vibrant cluster of blossoms, but in reality, all the petals were fused as one.

It is only after the second molt that a second petal grows.

The ninth metamorphosis, the orchid has nine petals, opening in a circular shape. Its form is extremely ordinary, yet it is called the Heavenly Orchid.

In his hand, this nine-illusion Heavenly Orchid only had seven petals. It resembled a snow-covered ink orchid. Even though it was about to undergo its eighth transformation, it wouldn't mature until five hundred years later.

At this point, Qin Sang almost immediately felt a surge of wanting to sell the Jiuxhuan Tianlan and exchange it for something useful.

He had just broken through the Foundation Establishment Stage, and now he had over two hundred years of lifespan remaining. Even if he was fortunate enough to form a Golden Core, if he couldn't find a pill or elixir that increased his lifespan, he would at most live to be five hundred years old.

That is to say, he may not see the day when Jiuhua Tianlan matures until his death, and can only leave it as a family heirloom.

But the sentence that the alchemist wrote at the end made Qin Sang's eyes widen suddenly.

Such a rare treasure, unprecedented in the world, is the main ingredient of the elixir 'Du E Dan', which can help those about to give birth achieve a 20% increase in their chance of successful delivery!

When Qin Sang saw this sentence, her heart trembled.

Cultivators break through barriers, vying for that thread of opportunity.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He has already learned the difficulty of laying a foundation.

As one's cultivation level increases, the difficulty of breaking through to the next stage becomes greater. Even a prodigy like Chen Yan Xianzi, with her exceptional innate talent, failed to succeed in her Nascent Soul tribulation and was forced to switch to cultivating auxiliary demonic arts.

What does it mean for the Deudan to increase the probability of forming a knot by 20%

A cultivator at the Golden Core stage, when attempting to breakthrough to Nascent Soul, might have a 10% to 20% chance of success. Many Golden Core cultivators are afraid to seize that slim opportunity and instead travel the world collecting herbs, but they never find one that works until they die.

The vast Xiao Han domain, with countless cultivators swarming like crucian carp crossing a river, had only eight righteous sects with Nascent Soul ancestors sitting in town. It is said that the Heavenly Demon Hill and the Demon Sect even have fewer.is…"Huang Shengzi secretly cried out in bitterness, he didn't expect this person to have such a big appetite, and actually set his sights on the four secret seals of Shangyuan Qingjing Palace's true t...
