Chapter 1132 Ancient Sclerotium

After a heated debate, Zhang Xuan finally bought the Fungus Soul Gathering Cauldron for 800 contribution points.

As they walked, a mysterious man in black robes blocked their way. He lowered his voice and said, "You two, I have a rare treasure that I will only trade with the right person. Are you interested?"

Zhang Xuan and Qingshenlu looked at each other, and a hint of vigilance flashed in their eyes.

Zhang Xuan calmly looked at the man in black robe. He saw that his aura was hidden. If he didn't use his spiritual sense, he couldn't tell the depth of his cultivation. He asked curiously, "What exactly is the peerless treasure you mentioned? Why don't you take it out and let me see it?"

The man in black robe looked around, and after making sure that no one was paying attention, he slowly took out an antique wooden box from his arms.

When I opened the wooden box, a stale smell hit me.

A fungus sclerotium emitting a faint green light lay quietly in the box.

The surface of the sclerotium is covered with fine lines, like an ancient code, and faint fluctuations of spiritual energy emanate from it.

"This is the sclerotium of an ancient species. If it can be cultivated, the value will be absolutely unimaginable." The man in black robe lowered his voice and said mysteriously.

Zhang Xuan was shocked. If this magical object was real, it would be priceless.

Generally, fungal elixirs are cultivated from spores.

The sclerotium can be used to cultivate fifth-level or even higher fungal elixirs.

But he also understood that there must be something wrong when things are out of the ordinary. Why would such a treasure fall into the hands of this unknown person?

He activated his Tianshu Famu and found that the sclerotium seemed to be covered by a layer of mysterious fungal patterns.

Zhang Xuan activated his Tianshu Famu and found that the sclerotium seemed to be wrapped in a layer of mysterious fungal patterns. The patterns were strange and complex, revealing an indescribable mysterious power.

"I think you have tried to grow this sclerotium before, right? But nothing grew, right?" Zhang Xuan asked.

At this moment, the man in black robe seemed to have seen through something and said, "This... this is an ancient fungus sclerotium. It must be dormant. How can it be grown casually?"

Henry Zhang snorted coldly, with a hint of mockery in his eyes: "Huh, sleeping? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child who can be fooled so easily? The fungus pattern on the sclerotium looks mysterious, but it is actually a layer of prohibition. It not only locks the spiritual power of the sclerotium, but also makes it impossible to cultivate normally. You can't do anything about it, so you want to find a sucker to attack. Am I right?"

The black-robed man's face slightly changed, and he sighed and said, "I'll be honest with you. This sclerotium was found by my father by chance in an ancient relic. At that time, the relic was full of traps, and my father finally found this wooden box with great difficulty. He thought he had found a rare treasure, but after returning, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't cultivate anything. My father asked many people to identify it, but they were helpless with the fungus patterns on the sclerotium. They only said that the sclerotium had an extraordinary origin, and maybe they could meet someone who was destined to solve the mystery. After my father passed away, the family fell into decline, and I... I had no choice but to come out and try my luck."

Zhang Xuan squatted down, picked up the sclerotium, and carefully looked at the fungal patterns on it. He thought to himself that if he could remove the seal on this ancient sclerotium, he might be able to cultivate a fifth-level fungal elixir.

That is something far superior to fifth-level elixirs or elixirs.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xuan asked directly: "I wonder how much you would like to pay for this ancient fungus sclerotium?"

"2000... No, only 1500 contribution points."

"It's too expensive," Zhang Xuan shook his head, "I can only give you 500 contribution points."

"500 contribution points are too few. Fellow Daoist, please add a few more. 1000. I only want 1000 contribution points."

"800 contribution points. If you think it's a good deal, then we'll make the deal. If not, go ask for the price somewhere else."

"800 contribution points..." The black-robed monk said with a pained look, "Okay, let's just consider it as making friends."

Henry Zhang directly took out the contribution card.

Next, Zhang Xuan continued to shop in this market.

Mainly purchasing spores.

After all, fungal elixirs and fungal organs are all cultivated through spores.

These seeds are priceless.

Always spend all your contribution points.

Zhang Xuan and Qingshenlu returned to the mine entrance.

"You showed so many fungi in front of Ao Xin last time. I'm afraid he is going to target us this time." Qingshenlu reminded.

"Are you planning to attack us?" Zhang Xuan laughed, "Then he can only consider himself unlucky."

"It's easy to get rid of him, but after getting rid of him, aren't you afraid of arousing the vigilance of the gods in this world?"

"will not."

"why?"

"If Ao Xin did it secretly, do you think he would let others know his whereabouts?"

"will not."

"So, if Ao Xin leaves for a few days, that's normal, right?"

"normal."

“When they find out that a foundation-building cultivator has disappeared, they report it to the higher levels one by one. At most, the report will reach the Nascent Soul cultivators. It is impossible to alert the Divine Transformation cultivators, and it is impossible for it to pose any threat to the two of us.”

"It seems that you planned it long ago."

"Of course, this Senior Ao is following us now."

Zhang Xuan and Ao Xin walked a hundred miles in the mine.

It was quiet.

Just at this moment, Ao Xin jumped out.

“Senior Ao…” Zhang Xuan pretended to be frightened.

Ao Xin laughed and said, "Now you can tell me where you dug up the mushroom treasure."

"This... this is our secret and opportunity. Senior Ao said that he would not take away our opportunity."

"So you guys want to die?"

Zhang Xuan still had that panicked look on his face, and he stammered, "Senior Ao, why are you doing this? We are just lucky. That place is really dangerous, and you may not be able to return safely if you go there."

Ao Xin snorted coldly, with a fierce look in his eyes: "Stop talking nonsense, if you don't tell me the place today, don't even think about leaving alive."

As he spoke, spiritual energy surged throughout his body, and the pressure of the Foundation Establishment Period was released without reservation. The air around him seemed to be solidified by this force, and the fungus mines on the ground also trembled under this pressure.

Zhang Xuan sneered in his heart, but did not show it on his face.

Just as Ao Xin was about to take action, Zhang Xuan suddenly moved.

He was as fast as lightning, and before Ao Xin could react, he had already appeared in front of him.

Only at this moment did Ao Xin realize that he had run into a tough opponent.

There was a look of fear in his eyes.

"boom!"

Zhang Xuan hasn't made a move yet.

The Green God Deer smashed Ao Xin's body into pieces with one palm.

"Are you possessed by a sense of drama? Why are you wasting your words on such a minor supporting role?" Green Deer muttered.

"First, check if he has anything good on him."

This is my old business.

Soon, he took out more than a dozen mushroom treasures from Ao Xin's storage bag.
