Chapter 722: Golden tangerine, magical fruit (please subscribe, please collect)
But it was this inconspicuous existence hidden among the golden tangerines that made Sun Mingzeng, a well-informed fourth-level golden elixir monk, suddenly open his eyes.
And as his state of mind fluctuated, his cultivation aura was almost completely exposed. Fortunately, he forcibly suppressed it at the critical moment.
The golden tangerine itself is just a relatively common first-class high-grade spiritual fruit. The mature spiritual fruit contains relatively strong spiritual power. However, the spiritual fruit itself has certain flaws and the spiritual power contained in it is relatively fierce.
For monks in the Qi refining stage, this one-time burst of spiritual power can easily have a negative impact on the meridians, so it is mostly used to cultivate some rough-skinned and thick-flesh spiritual beasts.
Therefore, the market for these kumquats is not too wide, and the price itself is naturally limited, otherwise they would not be piled up in large quantities by stores.
Throughout the Song Dynasty, Yushoumen was a major consumer of golden tangerines, and more than 80% of the spiritual fruits were transported to Yushouchengfang City for sale.
In recent years, the Sun family has continued to invest heavily in the Spirit Beast Valley. The demand for golden tangerines has become increasingly strong, and the purchase price is slightly higher than that of Yushoumen. Therefore, there are some caravans with low strength to transport the spirit fruits. Come here for sale.
Of course, the number of kumquats purchased by the Sun family every year is limited, and each order is made in advance with a caravan they are familiar with. The kumquats purchased from this store are obviously not within this range, and should be prepared in Waiting for an opportunity to sell in the market.
The Beast Control Sect is famous for its beast control, especially after the fourth-level low-grade Black Water Black Snake was born out of thin air, it did not completely fail in the battle with the Hundred Medicine Valley, which was dominated by Nascent Soul Stage monks.
Stimulated by this situation, most of the affiliated forces under the Beast Control Sect began to more or less cultivate spiritual beasts. Even some wealthy casual cultivators began to purchase some spiritual beasts to cultivate. Therefore, the special Golden Orange The sales of spiritual fruits are also becoming increasingly widespread.
The golden tangerine is a variant of the golden tangerine. Its grade ranges from the second-order low-grade to the third-order mid-grade. It mainly depends on the body of the spiritual plant that breeds the golden tangerine and the supply of spiritual power.
The mother plant of the golden tangerine is also a top-grade golden tangerine spiritual plant, and there is no obvious difference from the golden tangerine in the early stages of its growth.
Only at the final moment of its maturity, all the energy and vitality accumulated during the growth of the mother plant and even several other spiritual plants around it will be digested and forcibly extracted based on the quality of the golden citrus itself.
This means that when the golden citrus matures, it is also the moment when the golden citrus spiritual plants wither. The only difference is the number of withered spiritual plants.
The golden tangerine is so domineering, its effect also affects the spirit beast, and has the effect of assisting the spirit beast to advance to the big bottleneck.
For example, a second-grade low-grade golden tangerine can assist a first-grade high-grade spiritual beast to advance to the second level, which is comparable to the foundation-building pill required by a monk to build a foundation. A third-order low-grade spiritual beast can assist a third-grade spiritual beast to advance to the third level.
There is no doubt about the preciousness of the golden tangerine to the beast-controlling sect, and it can be easily exchanged for a high-quality elixir from its hands.
Even the Royal Beast Sect specializes in cultivating large groves of golden citrus spiritual plants. The only need is to increase the probability and quantity of golden citrus appearing.
Unfortunately, this kind of spiritual fruit with quite special effects always appears randomly without any rules, and the Beast Control Sect has no obvious benefits.
However, for ordinary families or small sects, the appearance of golden tangerines is obviously not a blessing. It means that the spiritual plants that have been cultivated through hard work will wither.
It takes at least ten to twenty years to cultivate a first-level high-grade spiritual plant, and a large amount of spiritual materials need to be invested in the process.
The price of golden citrus itself is not high in the market, but it can be regarded as a stable income for a family. Once the spiritual forest disappears suddenly, the development of the family will be affected.
In addition, golden tangerines are also considered to be mutant spiritual fruits. Only through spiritual consciousness can the abnormalities be discovered. For most low-level monks, it is impossible to effectively distinguish them.
"Seller, how much does this golden orange cost?"
Without delaying for too long, Sun Mingzeng immediately opened his mouth to ask after scanning back and forth with his spiritual consciousness and confirming that the golden tangerine was a third-level low-grade product.
In order to prevent accidents, the target of his purchase is all golden tangerines, not the wrinkled golden tangerines on the surface.
"All the golden tangerines and 4,600 spiritual stones are packaged and sold. What do you think, sir?"
A mid-stage foundation-building monk with a mustache and a cunning light flashed in his eyes. While responding, a greedy light flashed away.
"Seller, everyone knows the price of these golden tangerines. If it weren't for the urgent need of the family, I would not buy it from you at all. I will buy all the four thousand spiritual stones."
It would be an abnormal reaction for Sun Mingzeng to agree to the sky-high asking price, and he would certainly not be taken advantage of.
"Currently, more than 90% of the golden tangerines on the market have been purchased by the Sun family. Things are rare and expensive, but since Taoist friends sincerely buy them, 4,400 spiritual stones are worth it."
The store owner was so smart that after some thought, he made some concessions.
A quarter of an hour later, after a period of haggling, Sun Mingzeng finally purchased all the golden tangerines for 4,150 spiritual stones.
These golden tangerines have no other use for Sun Mingzeng, but the family's Spiritual Beast Valley needs these spiritual fruits almost all year round, so it is not a waste.
"It takes no effort to break through iron shoes and find nowhere. With the third-level low-grade golden tangerine as an assistant, the difficulty of cultivating the family's first third-level low-grade clan-protecting spiritual beast will be greatly reduced."
For the Sun family, the third-level clan guardian spirit beast is not just as simple as adding another person with more combat power.
If the family has a third-level spiritual beast as a guard, the three golden elixir monks Sun Mingzeng, Sun Mingsheng, and Sun Caiwu can go out and travel.
Even if the family encounters some unexpected events, relying on the dual power of the Twelve Capital Peaks Formation and the clan-protecting spiritual beasts, they can still buy enough buffer time to wait for the rescue of the family's golden elixir monks. Its significance cannot be overstated. .
Originally, with the Sun family's background, it would be quite difficult to successfully cultivate a third-level clan-protecting spiritual beast, even with some assistance from the Beast Control Sect.
Whether it is the tiger-striped nine-day python or the multi-eyed silver centipede, it has the potential to advance to the third level, but there is also the possibility and probability of failure.
The Tiger-striped Nine-Sky Python was brought by Sun Mingsheng from the desert of the Western Region. It has great potential, but the requirements for its living environment are extremely demanding. Any slight deviation may lead to the failure of its promotion.
The multi-eyed silver centipede was purchased by the family at a high price from the Beast Control Sect. There are quite a few of them, and all of them have been promoted to the second-level middle-lower grade. However, their own potential is limited. In the future, the difficulty of promotion to the third-level low-grade is lower, and the success rate is the same. not tall.
