Chapter 50: Treasure Everywhere

  Thinking that the glasses snake king in front might have spiritual intelligence, Wu Rui's mind moved and tried to transmit a sound to it: "Hello, Snake King."

  "Hahahaha!!!!" The sudden voice in his mind made the glasses snake react greatly, twisting its body uncomfortably for a few moments. Seeing that the human in front of him wasn't doing anything out of the ordinary, it gradually calmed down. After rolling its eyes a few times, it finally replied in a childish tone: "Y-you... can talk to me?"

  Wu Rui's face lit up with joy at the sound, and he thought to himself that although this glasses-wearing snake king in front of him wasn't born from a spiritual object, after being tempered by the Zhu Guo for so long, it had already completely evolved into a spiritual beast, which was truly rare. Unfortunately, Wu Rui didn't have a method to tame beasts on hand at the moment, or else he definitely wouldn't have let slip the opportunity to subdue it.

  "What a pity... Wu Rui let out a quiet sigh, but on the surface, he still wore a smile similar to that of Uncle Shu Li's, and said in a rather familiar tone: "That's right, I can talk to you. These red fruits you're guarding are exactly what I need. How about letting me pick some?"

  "Hiss......" Hearing Wu Rui's intention to hit his own fruit, the face of the glasses snake king was no longer gentle, and the red long tongue stirred continuously.

  However, Wu Rui added at this time: "You keep it completely useless. The hundred-year-old and thousand-year-old ones can't be taken orally, otherwise you will absolutely die on the spot. As for the inferior Zhu Guo that is ripe in ten years, although you can eat it, eating one of them requires at least a year to digest, by then these fruits have long fallen off, what a waste!"

  "Hiss..." The Glasses Snake King didn't expect this strange human to know so much, and for a moment he was somewhat flustered. However, being cautious and timid by nature, he naturally wouldn't back down now. His eyes remained fixed on Wu Rui, constantly darting his tongue in and out as if issuing a warning.

  Wu Rui saw this and shook his head slightly. Although the glasses snake king had already gained spiritual intelligence, the nature of the snake was not so easily changed, especially venomous snakes. Just now, he had seen a sinister look in the other's eyes, as well as killing intent. Wu Rui believed that if he rashly approached Zhu Guo, this glasses snake would absolutely launch a sudden attack.

  Ling beast, in the Earth Xiuzhen world, has almost become extinct. This is also why Wu Rui didn't want to take action against it, but without a way to tame the beast, and now that the other party doesn't know how to show respect, Wu Rui gradually lost his patience.

  "Actually, the Glasses Snake is also a good material for refining Dan..." Wu Rui muttered to himself and disappeared from his original position.

  "Hiss...!" Seeing the human in front of him suddenly disappear, the Snake King felt uneasy and began to move about violently, even affecting several nearby Zhu Guo trees. Its long tail swept across a high-quality Zhu Guo tree.

  Wu Rui, hiding in the dark, didn't dare to delay any longer. As he appeared beside the King of Eyeglasses Snake, he directly slapped its head with a palm.

  "Bang!"

  "Ahh!" The Glasses Snake King let out a desperate cry that didn't belong to its species, but with its brain already crushed by Wu Rui, all its strength dissipated, and its clumsy body finally lost balance, heavily falling down the cliff.

  Wu Rui naturally wouldn't let it fall, stretched out his hand and grabbed the tail of the snake king with one swoop, feeling a bit heavy, and in his hand was a piece of hard scales.

  "It's actually over a hundred kilograms in weight!" Wu Rui was somewhat surprised, and then somewhat regretful. A good spiritual snake like this would now only be used for refining elixirs or equipment, what a waste! However, it couldn't be helped, the situation had already been decided. With a thought, Wu Rui directly stored the Eyeless Snake King's corpse in his Storage Ring.

  The guardian spirit beast has been settled, and the fire-red zhū guǒ on the cliff's waist is like a beautiful woman stripped of her clothes, without any resistance, allowing Wu Rui to pick them freely. Wu Rui roughly estimated that he would harvest thousands of low-grade zhū guǒ, more than 200 mid-grade ones, and 18 high-grade ones, and was overjoyed, grinning from ear to ear.

  Then, Wu Rui continued searching halfway up the cliff.

  "Huh? Tea tree!" Wu Rui's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly flew over.

  In front of me, this tea tree is very tall and majestic, like an ancient pine that has pierced the sky. Its roots penetrate deep into the cliff wall, its trunk shoots straight up into the void, and then splits out into countless sturdy branches. On the surface are tender young leaves, and since it's located halfway up a cliff, the air is relatively humid, giving this tea tree an extra touch of spiritual energy.

  What kind of tea is good to drink? First, the variety, but more importantly, it's actually the age of the tree, as well as the growing environment, especially the geological requirements. The tea tree in front of us must have a history of over a thousand years, and it's still growing on the cliff halfway up the stone wall, with the best quality, and what's even rarer is that this tea tree is actually a Da Hong Pao.

  The best of the best!

  Cultivators either like good wine or good tea, after all, the long years of cultivation can be very lonely. Fine wine can dispel worries, and good tea can even cultivate one's temperament. Wu Rui also had a special fondness for tea, but after entering the mortal world, his circumstances declined, and he couldn't afford to indulge in elegance. Moreover, he didn't have any good tea leaves on hand.

  And now this top-grade Hongpao in front of him, undoubtedly made Wu Rui take a deep breath, and immediately started picking, busy to the point of being joyful.

  Apart from the ancient rock tea, there were many other precious medicinal materials and poisonous insects on the cliff. Wu Rui didn't miss any of them, as long as they were old enough, he carefully moved them into the Mina ring, and surprisingly, it quickly filled up the entire Mina ring. However, several space equipment that had been refined earlier were still in the clinic and hadn't been taken out, now unable to open the clinic, naturally unable to take them out.

  Fortunately, the ring with the space stone was always worn by Wu Rui on his hand, otherwise it would be very sad, who knew that the clinic also had such an unreliable time.

  "It seems I need to refine a few more storage equipment!" Wu Rui muttered to himself, reluctantly stopping his herb-picking action, choosing to sit down on a protruding rock, taking out the alchemy furnace and space stone, and starting to refine with practiced hands.

  However, this time Wu Rui did not use his own Dan fire, but instead used the energy of the Huo Ling Pearl. The power of the Tian Di Yi Bao was not something that Wu Rui's current Golden Dan fire could compare to. Additionally, he didn't have to worry about the consumption of his true yuan, so Wu Rui was able to focus wholeheartedly on carving the array method. As a result, the spatial ring he refined finally made a huge breakthrough, increasing from over 30 cubic meters last time to over 100 cubic meters now, which was roughly the size of a large hall.

  "The power of the Fire Spirit Pearl is indeed extraordinary!" Wu Rui couldn't help but exclaim, and after dripping blood to claim ownership of the ring, he continued his search. As time passed, Wu Rui kept going deeper down, soon reaching the bottom of a cliff over 100 meters below, where he was immediately stunned by the breathtaking scenery before him.

  Surrounded by misty green mountains, a sparkling emerald lake, fish swimming and playing in the water, occasionally with a few sacred lotus flowers, blooming with flawless fresh flowers. In the center of the mountain and lake, there is also a small island with excellent scenery. If you can build a wooden house on it to live, every morning with a cup of fragrant tea, afternoon sunset fishing, it's simply a divine life.

  What's more important is that this place is a great place for cultivation, quiet and peaceful, the spiritual energy is even several times thicker than above, and there are medicinal materials all over the mountain. Wu Rui even discovered many spiritual creatures' shadows, with most being spiritual grasses and some being spiritual fruits. Just two meters in front of Wu Rui, Hao Ran was a tall and elegant round-leafed plant with several green fruits hanging from it, emitting a fragrance that could be smelled from far away.

  "Ten thousand... ten thousand years of spiritual participation!!!" Even if Wu Rui's mental state was high, he couldn't help but stutter at this moment.
