Chapter 339 Talking about Cooperation

Chu Tai looked at the man and wanted to say something, but he continued, "I was the core of setting up this medicine garden back then, and I have a little authority in the cave. I can sense the subtle changes in the outside world, and someone may want to come in. According to the laws of the earth's operation, I think someone will come in soon."

"The traces of the foreign land here are so obvious that outsiders have seen a lot of them, and it may be a reason for them to attack you. As the original core of the formation, I am the most affected by the foreign land. It is better for me to use the power of Daluotian after my corpse transformation to help you cleanse this medicine garden."

The man's answer did not satisfy Chu Tai. He pointed out directly: "The ancestors in the Daluo Heaven should not have the energy to help us. With your cultivation level, the Daluo Heaven Light brought by the corpse transformation and ascension is just a drop in the bucket."

"why?"

The man was a little confused, and looked at Chu Tai and asked, "My existence should be an unstable factor for you, why do you trust me more? And now there should be someone outside trying to enter the cave, are you really not going to stop them?"

"What's the point of stopping me?"

Chu Tai asked back, and said in a cold voice: "For those thieves who want to steal the treasures left by our ancestors by taking advantage of their masters' inconvenience, the best way is to hurt them. Since we are going to take action, we must naturally stand on the moral high ground, otherwise how can we kill them?"

After saying that, Chu Tai no longer paid attention to the man and looked at the old man next to the spiritual root.

"Why do you want to disembodied your body?"

The old man looked at Chu Tai and said with a smile: "Daoyou Taiqing, can you see the characteristics of my spiritual roots?"

My eyes moved to the pear tree next to it. On the crown of the tree, there were hundreds of flowers in bloom, twenty-seven unripe fruits, and nine ripe yellow pears.

Chu Tai said indifferently: "The earth energy of Wu and Ji combined with the energy of Evergreen to form the pear spirit root. The meaning of the law should be the meaning of [longevity]."

"Daoyou has a keen eye. The meaning of this spiritual root is exactly longevity. Therefore, this Jiaoli spiritual root contains the energy of longevity and evergreen, and its growth rate has also slowed down a lot. It blooms once every sixty years, and there are nine flowers in bloom. Collecting the dew on the petals and drinking it can delay aging and prolong life."

The old man's fingers slid lightly on the bark and whispered, "After another sixty years, the nine flowers will bloom. Three of the original nine flowers will wither and produce three green fruits. Taking them can increase your lifespan by thirty years. If you use them to make medicine, you can make a sixty-year longevity pill that can extend your lifespan by sixty years."

"After another sixty years, there will be nine flowers and three fruits. At the same time, one of the green fruits will be fully mature. Taking it can increase one's natural lifespan by sixty years, or it can be used as a longevity elixir to extend one's lifespan by three hundred and sixty years. This will continue until there are nine ripe fruits, twenty-seven green fruits, and one hundred and eight flowers on the tree. Of course, most of the time, this pear tree will not grow to its current state."

"The current state of this spiritual root is half due to sharing the pressure of the Dao Fruit fragments in my body, and the other half is due to absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon in the past hundred years, and quickly completing the accumulation. But the Dao Fruit fragments are both the cause of success and the cause of failure. It matures with the help of external forces, just like us taking the Jiazi Longevity Pill and Yunshou Pill."

The old man looked at Chu Tai again and asked in a low voice: "Do you know the difference, fellow Taoist?"

"of course."

Chu Tai nodded. "As a longevity fruit tree, the greatest benefit of the Jiao Pear is that it can be eaten repeatedly. Theoretically, after taking a mature Jiao Pear, it only takes 30 years to take another Jiao Pear to obtain the full medicinal effect. Therefore, unless there are unexpected circumstances, a person can completely rely on Jiao Pear to survive forever."

"In comparison, although the refined longevity pill has a better effect in prolonging life, the corresponding resistance will also appear in the body of the person who takes it, making it impossible for him to gain immortality by repeatedly eating Jiao Pear."

Hearing this, the old man nodded and said, "My current situation with this spiritual root is like taking a longevity pill. My body has developed resistance to the layout of the medicine garden, and even to some methods that dilute the laws and principles of the foreign land. This is a very good experimental sample. If you can find out the key, it will be of great benefit to your subsequent treatment." Chu Tai stared at the old man for a long time and asked, "What about you?"

"After I transform into a corpse, I will probably choose to reincarnate. At that time, I will have to trouble a few Taoist friends to help extradite me back."

"If your guess is correct, we all owe you a favor. If I don't extradite you back, how can I face the ancestors?"

Chu Tai's answer made the old man smile: "So, Brother Tai Qing, do you agree?"

"If it really comes to the point where I have to do this, I will naturally not reject a better possibility."

"Does it have to be this far?"

The old man chuckled, repeated Chu Tai's words in a low voice, and said with a smile: "Daoyou are very kind."

"I said, you are also victims of the erosion of the laws and principles of the foreign land. I sympathize with your experience, so if it is not necessary, or if there is a possibility of salvation, I will want to save you."

At this point, Chu Tai looked at the man in the central jade stone and said, "To be more pragmatic, you are the predecessors of Jinhua Sect, and I am the current leader who inherited Jinhua Sect. At this time when Jinhua Sect is facing internal and external troubles, the more of you who survive, the better it will be for me. We are on the same side."

The man in the center sneered upon hearing this, "That's a good idea, but what if we are a threat to your rule? Or what if we could cause problems at any time? Have you ever thought about why Elder Danhua Yuque and the previous headmaster made so many sacrifices to suppress the Dao Fruit fragments, but why we can live safely until now?"

"What do you mean?"

Chu Tai frowned. He was not happy that the man said such words about the previous leader. Instead, he stared at the man. "Fate" gathered together, and the power of the cave sky rose up, helping him to calculate everything.

"Don't waste your time. You can't figure it out. Our method is very simple. We each gave up a part of our emotions and memories, and sealed them in specific instruments and spiritual roots in a similar way to the incarnation. We used this as a price to fight against the fragments of the foreign Dao fruit."

The man said this with a bitter smile: "This method was deduced by the previous master from the evil creature Jinwu Fangding. Unfortunately, this method has a big loophole. After a hundred years, our personalities have changed to a certain extent, especially me. I can no longer control some emotions. Is this normal for a cultivator who has achieved the fifth level?"

"But this only means that your condition is not normal, it does not mean that you have no chance of being rescued. To put it bluntly, in order to prevent me from being framed by others in the future, please all of you survive."

Chu Tai's answer made the others stunned. They didn't expect that he would give such an answer in the end.

Seeing that no one answered, Chu Tai said, "Now, if anyone has any questions, please tell me all at once. I will check them one by one when I organize the medicine garden. Unless it is absolutely necessary, I will choose to help you."

Hearing this, the man with the Azure Dragon Seven Constellations flag, who was one of the four people sitting in the corner of the medicine garden, spoke up: "In that case, we'll leave it to you, Sect Master."
