Chapter 81 One Hundred Years of Polygonum Multiflorum

Leaving the old man's shabby courtyard, Wang Ke followed the location of the cave the old man's son told him and rushed to the mountains behind the village. He told the old man that he would return to Changji, but he intended to thoroughly solve the problem in that cave first, for fear that the Hui energy would again harm people. Then he would back to Changji.

From the old man's son, he could feel that the reason for the great mental transformation of the young man was the Hui energy in that cave.

Moreover, he was sure that a small amount of Hui energy would not affect him, and if not, he could release the spirit energy to form a protective shield around his body, isolating the connection between the Hui energy and his own body.

Half an hour later, Wang Ke, in the line of the young man's advice, quickly found the location of the cave. He stood in its entrance, feeling gusts of cold air, and slowly walked in after hesitating for a while.

In the pitch-black cave, Wang Ke, with far superior eyesight, was able to see the scene clearly inside. The cave was very deep, extending for tens of meters before it came to an end.

By virtue of energy-observing, Wang Ke was feeling the dense Yin energy in the cave, the line of sight scanning the surroundings ceaselessly.

Five minutes later, Wang Ke's eyes paused in a corner.

It was a secluded corner. As Wang Ke approached, he felt a stronger chill. It was by the intensity of the chill that he noticed something strange. Reaching out and scraping the dirt off the corner, Wang Ke clearly saw a blood-colored jade pendant beneath the soil. This jade pendant was carved with a dragon and a phoenix, delicate and vivid, streaks of blood-like color slowly flowing on it, which would not be noticed if you did not carefully observe.

Was this jade pendant the cause of Hui energy?

Wang Ke had an idea and quickly controlled the spirit energy into his eyes. At this moment, he, in the use of the extraordinary vision, wanted to see what the matter with this blood-colored jade pendant was and whether it was to blame for the gloom and chill of the cave.

The colorful world disappeared in the micro-fluctuation of his mind and the visual scene seemed to return to normal. Putting his eyes on this jade pendant, Wang Ke frowned slightly at once, because he observed through the extraordinary vision that this blood-colored jade pendant actually contained the thick gray Hui energy.

It was the cause of a large amount of gray Hui energy in this cave!

The magic weapons he found before contained white smog, but how did this blood-colored jade pendant contain gray Hui energy? Was this jade pendant a magic weapon?

With a little bewilderment, he hesitated for a while and controlled the spirit energy into the palm of his hand. After forming a protective shield, he reached for the jade pendant and strode out of the cave.

Without the blood-colored jade pendant, he believed that the gray Hui energy in the cave would soon dissipate.

Out of the cave, Wang Ke turned his head to look around. The scenery, green mountains and water, was exceptionally beautiful, the breeze blowing and new green branches swaying in the wind.

Suddenly, an idea came to him.

Because the concentration of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the remote mountains was at least two or three times thicker than that in large cities, he decided not to go to the county more than a dozen miles away from the village, but go through the mountains to the other side to take a bus. It was known that going through the mountains saved the time to go to the scene and vehicles from Changji all detoured from the other end of the mountain to the county.

After making up his mind, he did not hesitate and spread himself out, like a ghost in the remote mountains and forests, to the top of the mountain as fast as lightning.

In the meridian of his body, the spirit energy was running crazily, while the endless spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the outside world was also rapidly converging in his body and was refined in the continuous operation of the spirit energy to become his strength.

Half an hour later, Wang Ke, who had gone deep into the heart of the mountain, suddenly stopped in a grove.

"Weird. How does the spiritual energy of heaven and earth here suddenly thick a lot? The concentration is at least four or five times stronger than where I just came from."

With an odd look, Wang Ke was even a little puzzled in his mind.

Quickly looking in all directions, he, by energy-observing, found that there was a direction where the concentration of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was stronger.

Half a minute later, he followed the route of thick spiritual energy to a dead locust tree.

A hundred years of polygonum multiflorum was covered under the branches and leaves. Some of the strong spiritual energy emanated from it, while others were replenished into its body by absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Wang Ke burst out the expression of ecstasy due to the polygonum multiflorum of more than one hundred years that contained extraordinarily ample spiritual energy. He had also read in books that taking such polygonum multiflorum can prolong life, replenish qi, and nourish the blood, and if it is absorbed by those who are cultivating, it can enhance their cultivation realm.

He had not expected to encounter such a good thing in this place and did not know whether it was the spiritual energy of the place that made the polygonum multiflorum or the polygonum multiflorum that made it rich.

Anyway, there was no reason for him to miss it!

Quickly placing the blood-colored jade pendant four or five meters away, Wang Ke carefully squatted next to the polygonum multiflorum, slowly dug it out, cleaned up the stains above, and ate it raw without saying a word.

How could he not take advantage of such a great opportunity to enhance strength?

He was not afraid of poison, for his constitution was now sufficient to discharge most of the poison in the world.

The entrance of polygonum multiflorum was like swallowing a group of hot fire into the belly. The polygonum multiflorum flowed into the abdomen along the throat, warm currents sweeping through his whole frame, like soaking in hot springs. The kind of comfortable feeling made Wang Ke almost groan out.

Sitting cross-legged quickly, Wang Ke began to absorb the spiritual energy of the 100-year-old polygonum multiflorum.

Time passing slowly, Wang Ke did not slowly open his eyes until two o'clock in the night.

A flash of bright light passed under his eyes. Suddenly, he stood up lightly, quickly controlling the spirit energy in his body meridians, and had a kind of floating feeling that "I want to ride the wind back". Simultaneously, his limbs were full of explosive force. Wang Ke was confident that if there was an elephant in front of him, he could also punch its skull.

"I had no idea that a shortcut from the mountains could bring me such a great benefit. Although the effect of this 100-year-old polygonum multifolium didn't make me break through to the fourth stage of the Dragon's Momentum, it also made my cultivation a big step, the reaching of the top of the third stage. As soon as the time is right, I will successfully break through the third stage, and then I will naturally break through to the fourth stage."

Wang Ke thought with satisfaction, his slightly handsome face emerging a bright smile.

It was already midnight, so Wang Ke did not rush to leave but continued to sit cross-legged to cultivate. There was so much spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the mountains and forests that he did not want to waste time.

With the early morning sun rising from the mountains in the east, Wang Ke slowly opened his eyes. He jumped up, quickly came to the place where the blood-colored jade pendant was situated, laid on a layer of the spirit energy shield in his hand again to pick it up, and headed for the other end of the mountain, like the wind and lightning.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Wang Ke hurried back to Self House.

Zhao Menfeng saw Wang Ke coming, just gave him an insipid look, and said, "You get ready. I'll get the materials, and then start to teach you the knowledge about Fengshui."

Wang Ke hurriedly said, "Mr. Zhao, wait a moment. I accidentally acquire a thing and feel that there's something weird about it. Would you take a look at it?"

Zhao Menfeng showed a surprised look, looked at Wang Ke, and slowly nodded.

Wang Ke stretched out his hand to put the blood-colored jade pendant on the counter and said, "Mr. Zhao, don't touch the thing. I feel something sinister about it, and I am afraid it might do you harm."

After seeing the jade pendant on the counter, his brow furrowed deeply.

"Wang Ke, how did you find it?"

Zhao Menfeng became serious and then asked, looking at Wang Ke carefully.

Wang Ke told the story from beginning to end: He helped an old man at the antique trading market, escorted him home, and treated his wife. The only thing he hid was that he absorbed the Hui energy from the old man's son.

After listening to Wang Ke's story, Zhao Menfeng sighed and said, "This is actually a lethal weapon that is very harmful to the human body. In addition to magic weapons, there are lethal weapons in our circles. The blood-colored jade pendant can confuse people's minds and cause great harm to the human body. It also contains the Hui energy that can influence an area of one hundred and fifty square meters."

Wang Ke was stunned and secretly lamented the mystery and profundity in the circles of magic weapons. He had never heard of the existence of lethal weapons. If not for the fact that he found it and brought it back, the lethal weapons would still be a mystery to him.

At this point, he vaguely understood at once why Mr. Zhao had been always reluctant to teach him about Fengshui before. The reason was that even his knowledge of antiques and magic weapons was but a drop in the bucket.

As the previous saying of Mr. Zhao, "High buildings rise from the ground." The knowledge of antiques and magic weapons is solely the foundation. If the foundation is not solid, later learning geomantic knowledge will be more difficult.

"Mr. Zhao, how should this lethal weapon be dealt with?" Wang Ke asked curiously.

Zhao Menfeng smiled at the corners of his mouth and said, "You can sell it at Fuxuan Hall. You don't know the knowledge of Fengshui now, and I can freely say something to you. For example, putting one or more good magic weapons in the shop will improve the Fengshui of this shop. Certainly, some minor matters need attention. However, if the lethal weapon is placed in the right place, it can also improve the Fengshui layouts. Someone at Fuxuan Hall has such ability, so give them the lethal weapon and they will duly handle."

Wang Ke was secretly shocked. He had been to Fuxuan Hall, even more than once, but he had never known there were such distinguished individuals in Fuxuan Hall. Even Mr. Zhao, Zhao Menfeng, had a particular respect for people with that kind of ability.

Carefully looking at Wang Ke, Zhao Menfeng suddenly asked, "Wang Ke, if I remember correctly, when you just came, you were holding this lethal weapon in your hand, how did you not be impacted by it?"

Wang Ke said, "Mr. Zhao, have you forgotten? I have the spirit energy to protect my body!"

With a sluggish look, Zhao Menfeng suddenly realized and laughed, "What a surprise! Most masters in the circles of magic weapons shun the lethal weapon. But such weapons have no impact on you."

Wang Ke smiled and enjoyed Zhao Menfeng's praise.
