Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 550: Chapter 35 Yi Wood Essence! The “Invincible” Path of the Young Clan Leader _3

The core disciples were, after all, the backbone of the Academic Palace’s future, possessing decent spiritual strengths. The spirit plants they fostered were all quite unique.

“Senior Brother Yunlang has done an exceptional job nurturing his Purple Sun Spirit Wood, clearly not stinting on the provision of Fire Spirit Stones and Heaven and Earth Treasures. If he reaches the Heavenly Human Realm and makes it his life-bound spirit plant, it can emit Purple Sun Spiritual Fire, proving very lethal. I think he stands a good chance of winning this time,” said one.

“Senior Brother Yunlang is still too young. Senior Brother Yuzhe’s Fire Dragon Fruit Tree is the real deal, demonstrating his excellent skill at nurturing spirit plants,” said another.

Two young ordinary disciples started their discussion.

“You’re too naive, not getting it.” Hearing them, another top disciple jumped in, “Senior Brother Jinshan’s White Jade Spiritual Peony is the exemplary model in the world of spirit plant fostering.”

“Senior Brother, although the White Jade Spiritual Peony is of excellent quality and full of spirituality, reflecting Senior Brother Jinshan’s fostering skills, catalyzation techniques, and wealth, it doesn’t offer much help in combat apart from occasionally producing Spirit Flower Dew, which is a Heaven and Earth treasure. I wonder why Senior Brother Jinshan chose it?” someone asked.

… “Ah, you’re young, lacking experience and not understanding its subtleties,” the excellent disciple explained mysteriously. “The White Jade Spiritual Peony is the fairest among Spirit Flowers. If it becomes a life-bound spirit plant and reaches Level Five, it could unlock spiritual intelligence and allow interaction with its master at a mental level… Senior Brother Jinshan might struggle to find a suitable partner in this lifetime… Instead, he can try to flog all he’s got to buy a ‘Spiritual Plant Transformation Pill’…”

“Spiritual Plant Transformation Pill?”

Astonished, the disciples all gazed at Senior Brother Jinshan with a mixture of awe and ambiguity.

Admiration deserving of Senior Brother Jinshan, he could even figure out such strange and quirky plans.

Some female seedlings were frightened out of their wits. Senior Brother Jinshan’s ideas were too terrifying for them.

Generally, spirit plants or beasts would have to wait until level nine, and only after surviving the Heavenly Tribulation, could they truly transform. That’s the case for wild plants and ferocious beasts. For those that are domesticated, limited transformation abilities could be attained after reaching a certain level by taking a Transformation Pill.

Of course, it only grants limited transformation power, and neither cultivation base nor spiritual intelligence will grow.

Still, the Transformation Pill remains an incredibly pricey spirit pill of Fifth Grade.

Completely oblivious to the assumptions others were making about him, Senior Brother Jinshan was busy showing off his White Jade Spiritual Peony. “My raising techniques are quite excellent. Look at this White Jade Spiritual Peony I raised. It’s not just beautiful, but high-grade. Every month, it even produces a drop of Spirit Flower Dew. This dew can directly boost one’s cultivation or sold to an Alchemist for Qian Gold as medicinal ingredient. Once she reaches Level Five, she will continuously produce Spirit Flower Dew. Whether it is used for myself or sold, it’s going to turn a huge profit.”

Although he was being very serious, his words felt rather dubious to the audience.

At this moment, they saw Senior Brother Jinshan as already being utterly despicable.

However, the other senior brothers and sisters didn’t have time to bother with whether Senior Brother Jinshan was despicable or not.

Just like salespeople, they were all eagerly displaying their talents and abilities in fostering spirit plants, hoping to eventually earn the rights to foster the seeds of the Longevity Tree.

“Come on, look at my Man-eating Flower. It’s so charmingly evil. With a mixture of dominating power and gentleness, it will gulp you down when you least expect it…”

“My Ghost Face Mushroom is the best. It can release fear-inducing illusion techniques that attack the divine soul, leading to enemy defeat without a fight,” defended each senior disciple vigorously.

“Ugh… I can’t stand to watch anymore.”

Wang Zong’an watched for a while, shook his head, and quietly left ahead of schedule.

Only half an hour later did everyone suddenly realize something was wrong.

“Where has the Longevity Tree seed gone? Why isn’t it here?”

“Could someone have stolen it?”

“Steal your head off, the senior Longevity Tree is a Peak Level Eight spirit plant, not even a powerful figure in the Divine Power Territory could casually steal its spirit seeds, right?”

The crowd erupted in uproar.

The core disciples were rendered clueless, feeling deceived. Even the elders were baffled, unsure of what had happened.

Suddenly.

The oldest elder, whose head was covered by a Jade Crown, blinked in realization and spoke, “Er… I received a message from the senior Longevity Tree. The seed has been claimed. Everyone can disperse.”

Following this, the other elders began nodding in agreement.

“I’ve heard the same thing…”

The core disciples reaching the Spiritual Platform, alongside the exceptional disciples, were left dumbfounded.

It turns out that they had been wasted their effort performing earlier? They had been beaten to the punch without so much as a sound?

Most importantly, they had offended their nurtured spirit plants in the process. Even though these plants had yet to truly unlock spiritual intelligence, it didn’t mean they had no wisdom or emotions at all.

“Who is it?! Who got the seed? I declare a feud on you!!!”

Immediately, the crowd turned chaotic as an unknown figure roared.

The crowd’s attention rapidly shifted to the ordinary disciples, instilling fear and causing them to repeatedly deny any involvement.

Even the elderly were looking at each other, finally deciding to disengage and quietly walk away, one after another.

…

Leaving the commotion with the core disciples, Wang Zong’an had quietly returned to his inconspicuous yard.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, he took out the glowing Longevity Fruit, his heart pounding slightly.

As a flood of bloodline talents surged through him, if he could awaken the Third Level Bloodline, he could make a timely breakthrough into the Spiritual Platform Realm.

Later, by nurturing the spirit seed within the Longevity Fruit, he would have a sapling of the Longevity Tree as his spirit plant.

It seemed like he, as the Young Clan Leader, was about to become invincible!

All this came too suddenly.
