375: The truth about black stones

"Ask away."

Xiao Fan suppressed his unwillingness and said.

He never expected that an Advanced Martial Artist he casually found during the Troubled Times would turn out to be an evil demon from the Surface.

Theoretically, it wouldn't matter if he was, since he was just going to be used as fertilizer anyway. But he never thought this evil demon would be so fierce!

Xiao Fan had considered such a possibility, so he specifically brought two Rank 19 Advanced Martial Artists to capture him, precisely to prevent the current situation.

However, he didn't expect that a Rank 19 Advanced Martial Artist would be like a toy in front of a Rank 16 opponent, completely unable to retaliate.

For a moment, he truly didn't understand how a Rank 16 could defeat a Rank 19 with a single punch!

"What is that golden devouring grass behind you?"

"It feels a bit different from the others."

Chen Du asked.

This question was perfect; it could provide information about the golden devouring grass and also allow him to judge whether the other party was lying, as Chen Du already knew some information about devouring grass.

"He... is the mother body."

After much hesitation, Xiao Fan spoke.

"All the devouring grass here originates from this golden devouring grass."

"The quality of devouring grass, from low to high, is divided into green, blue, red, purple, and gold."

"The mother body will give birth to green quality devouring grass."

"I obtained this one at a great cost from the Taiji Eight Desolations, but he is already nearing his end."

"Next, he will undergo Reincarnation and turn into a seed."

Chen Du nodded. He already knew all this information, which meant the other party wasn't lying.

Then, he took something out of his Storage Ring and asked:

"Is it this seed?"

When Xiao Fan saw the seed in Chen Du's hand, his pupils contracted:

"Yes."

An incredible look flickered in his eyes. Obtaining the seed was extremely difficult. Could it be that the other party had just returned from the Taiji Eight Desolations?

From this, it could be seen that Xiao Fan assumed all devouring grass originated from the Taiji Bahuang Territory.

Could it be that the source of all devouring grass on the Surface came from Underground?

Chen Du speculated in his heart. Xiao Fan certainly wouldn't be able to answer this question, so he immediately asked another question he was more concerned about:

"How do you grow this thing?"

"To grow this golden devouring grass, you need two things: 'gold stone cultivating soil' and 'five-colored water'."

Xiao Fan was somewhat glad he hadn't chosen to lie at first. The other party clearly knew some information about devouring grass, and even had a seed in his hand. The initial question was entirely a test!

"gold stone cultivating soil is a type of stone that feels like metal and is very heavy. When crushed, it becomes as soft as soil."

"Wrap the seed with the crushed gold stone cultivating soil. Its purpose is to serve as the soil for the golden devouring grass."

"five-colored water, as the name suggests, is water with five colors. This water is very rare, and it's measured in drops. Its weight is extremely exaggerated; one drop weighs ten thousand jin."

"To bring the seed back to life and turn it into a golden devouring grass that can reproduce, three drops of five-colored water are needed."

"These things are all in the Taiji Bahuang Territory and are very difficult to obtain."

"This golden devouring grass is about to enter Reincarnation, but unfortunately, I don't have these two things. I don't know when I'll be able to grow him back to life."

"Is this gold stone cultivating soil?"

After hearing this, Chen Du put the seed back into his ring and took out the black stone slab. There might be many similar stones, so Chen Du directly placed it in Xiao Fan's hand to prevent him from mistaking it.

This was the confidence brought by absolute strength. Even if the other party tried any more tricks, he wouldn't be able to achieve anything.

Xiao Fan took it, and instantly affirmed:

"Yes, this is gold stone cultivating soil."

"Have you really been to the Taiji Bahuang Territory?"

The reason Xiao Fan was so shocked was that the Taiji Bahuang Territory was very exclusive. Even as an Underground Alien Race member, it was difficult for him to enter, yet this evil demon from the Surface dared to go in.

Although the other party had the ability to transform, it was still very dangerous, as there were Domain Warriors in the Taiji Bahuang Territory.

Even though this evil demon was powerful, he was only Rank 16. Was he too bold?

"Did I tell you to ask?"

Chen Du said coldly.

"You..." Xiao Fan, despite his high status, still cowered at this moment and dared not say anything more.

Chen Du glanced at the black stone slab in his hand. At first, he thought it was some rare metal, then he learned it was an Underground stone, and now he finally knew it was the soil for cultivating golden devouring grass seeds.

This soil was like the cradle of their birth, no wonder the old, dying golden devouring grass was on it. So that was the reason.

Although he went through some twists and turns, Chen Du finally figured out what this black stone slab was.

At the same time, he was glad he hadn't traded it.

"This thing, will it not be affected inside Gravity Mountain?"

Chen Du took the gold stone cultivating soil back and asked.

"Yes, the five-colored water is the same, or any item with abnormal weight will not be affected by Gravity Mountain."

Although he didn't know why the other party asked this, Xiao Fan's life was in the other party's hands at the moment, so he honestly explained.

"You can understand it as these items are inherently always in a gravity mode, so they cannot be further affected by the gravity in Gravity Mountain."

Chen Du nodded, finally clearing up this question.

At first, he thought this thing was very mysterious, but now it seemed to be a matter of resource distribution.

Just like the secret relic, the entire High Martial Civilization didn't have a single one, but he now had 3,000 of them!

Although this number was a drop in the bucket for the entire civilization, if given as rewards to the Qilin Class and other three elite classes annually, it would be enough for 33 years!

Chen Du was originally considering whether to return to the High Martial Civilization after leaving and hand over the golden devouring grass to the relevant personnel of the Technology Martial Hall.

After all, this thing was not a resource that would show immediate effects upon use, but rather one that needed time to mature.

Now, although Xiao Fan had helped Chen Du, or rather, the High Martial Civilization, solve the problem of cultivation, he didn't have five-colored water, so taking the seed back early would be meaningless.

That being said, whether or not to return to the High Martial Civilization actually depended on his location after leaving. If he was relatively close to the High Martial Civilization, returning for a visit might not be impossible.

Firstly, he could hand over the 3,000 secret relics, and secondly, the High Martial Civilization might have five-colored water, or something that could substitute for it.

"If the golden devouring grass has its legs cut off, will it also become like ordinary devouring grass?"

"That's right. Apart from the unique abilities of reproduction and Reincarnation, the golden devouring grass is like other devouring grass, also possessing the ability to improve Life Strength Rank talent."

"But after its legs are cut off, they will lose the abilities of Reincarnation and reproduction."

"Wait..."

"You wouldn't be thinking of..."

As Xiao Fan spoke, he suddenly sensed something was amiss.
