CHAPTER 889: Death Flame
According to cultivation levels, a late-stage yuan ying cultivator can enhance their cultivation by about one hundred years, a mid-stage can improve by one hundred and fifty years, while an early-stage cultivator can expect an increase of roughly two hundred years.
Of course, this is just an approximate estimation, as specific outcomes can vary from person to person.
The "Immortal Source Fruit" is similar to the "Transformative Dragon Grass," both of which are spiritual herbs that gradually went extinct since the Middle Ages, with no news of them in the more recent ancient times.
However, compared to the "Nine Illusions Immortal Spirit Grass," they are still lacking in value.
After all, the "Immortal Source Fruit" can only enhance cultivation and does not help in breaking through bottlenecks; once faced with a bottleneck, its effects become negligible.
In contrast, the "Nine Illusions Immortal Spirit Grass" can significantly enhance cultivation and has a better effect for breaking through bottlenecks than the "True Pill."
The difference is immediately apparent upon comparison.
However, just one of these can increase cultivation by a hundred years, which makes countless true lords and demonic kings eager to acquire it.
Despite their long lifespans, true lords and demonic kings need to swiftly complete their training in the yuan ying realm to have enough time to break through the divine transformation bottleneck.
Whether it be spiritual herbs, spiritual objects, or spiritual pills, any resource that can enhance cultivation by a century is incredibly precious, worth fighting to the death for by fourth-stage beings.
Even in ancient times, such scarce resources were few and far between, and they are even rarer today.
To Liu Yu's knowledge, the only resource in the current cultivation world that has effects comparable to the "Immortal Source Fruit" is the "Infant Nurturing Pill," one of the three treasures of fetal formation.
However, a few key main ingredients used to refine the Infant Nurturing Pill have already gone extinct in the Tian Nan cultivation world, with only a small quantity still produced in the Central Domain.
Moreover, this pill is only effective for newly promoted yuan ying cultivators, and the usage restrictions are far more significant than those of the Immortal Source Fruit.
Even for the exceptionally talented golden core cultivators, acquiring the conception spirit objects is already difficult; how could they spare the time and energy to prepare an Infant Nurturing Pill?
Despite the remarkable effects of this pill, golden core cultivators have little hope of obtaining it through their own efforts.
Even in the Central Domain, only places like the Qian Court Holy Land or divine transformation factions might have elders preparing one for juniors attempting to break through the fetal formation bottleneck.
"What a pity, these two Immortal Source Fruits are of the metal and wood attributes, which do not match the attributes of my cultivation technique."
With that thought, Liu Yu quietly sighed.
The qingyang skill is primarily a fire and wood attribute cultivation technique; although it incorporates some wood attributes, fire is the main focus.
Even if he were to consume a wood attribute Immortal Source Fruit, the effects would be mediocre; it would be good if it could increase his cultivation by ten years, let alone one hundred and fifty years.
However, hearing that the Breakthrough Elixir could be exchanged, Liu Yu still intended to give it a try.
The "Immortal Source Fruit" is truly a hard currency among true lords and demonic kings. Even if he does not plan to consume it himself, it can be used in future exchanges for needed items.
"I have half a jin of Great Luo Silver Crystal here and am willing to exchange it for one Immortal Source Fruit!"
Just as Liu Yu was pondering, the voice of Qianyang True Monarch had not yet fully fallen when a cultivator eagerly spoke up.
Great Luo Silver Crystal!
And it's half a jin!
This type of spiritual material, when added even in small quantities, can significantly enhance the power of true treasures, making it another form of hard currency among true lords.
