[Chapter 303: The Earth’s Core Ancestor Picks Peaches]
Even without Bai Shan telling him, Yang Yiyun recognized that it was Ganoderma lucidum. Moreover, Yang Yiyun had learned a lot about Ganoderma lucidum, including the books he read at school and the records about Ganoderma lucidum in his master Yun Tianxie’s Complete Collection of Spiritual Medicines.
It is recorded in relevant Chinese medicine books that Ganoderma lucidum medicines were first recorded in the “Ben Jing”. According to the different colors of Ganoderma, Ganoderma lucidum is divided into six types: red Ganoderma lucidum, black Ganoderma lucidum, green Ganoderma lucidum, white Ganoderma lucidum, yellow Ganoderma lucidum, and purple Ganoderma lucidum.
The “Ben Cao Jing Ji Zhu” says: These six Ganoderma lucidum are all fairy grasses, which are rarely seen by the common people. There are many species and different shapes and colors. They are also recorded in the “Ganoderma Grass Picture”. The purple Ganoderma lucidum used by the common people today grows on rotten trees and looks like a wooden bark.
There is also the “Shennong Bencao Jing”: “Red Ganoderma, bitter and flat. It cures chest knots, benefits the heart, replenishes the middle, increases wisdom, and prevents forgetfulness. Eating it for a long time can make the body light and not old, and prolong life like a fairy. It is also called Danzhi. Ganoderma
often appears in some mythological stories in Jiuzhou. It can be said that it is an important protagonist, and its exposure rate is comparable to that of ginseng.
The most well-known is the “Legend of the White Snake”. In order to save Xu Xian, the White Snake went to Emei to steal the immortal grass. After going through hardships, she finally moved the Nanji Xianweng to give the immortal grass to save Xu Xian. The immortal grass here is Ganoderma.
There are also mythological legends that the Ganoderma myth originated from the “Classic of Mountains and Seas”. The “Seven Classics in the Classic of Mountains and Seas” said that the little daughter of Emperor Yan was named “Yao Ji”. She died just when she was of marriageable age. Her spirit floated to the mountain of Gu Yao and turned into Yao grass, which is actually Ganoderma lucidum. Its leaves are lush and its flowers are yellow. Because the “Emperor of Heaven” (Emperor Yan) pitied her Yao Ji died young, so she was named the God of Clouds and Rain in Wushan.
People have worshipped Ganoderma since ancient times, believing it to be a symbol of good luck, good fortune, wealth, beauty, and longevity. There are many stories and legends about Ganoderma from ancient times to the present.
In fact, according to the inheritance records of Yang Yiyu’s master, and what he learned from books, Ganoderma lucidum under 100 years old is an ordinary Chinese medicine, which has the effects of replenishing qi and calming the mind, relieving cough and asthma, and is used for dizziness, insomnia, palpitations, shortness of breath, and asthenia and cough. Is
Ganoderma lucidum as magical as in myths and legends? Yang Yiyu believes that it is, but it depends on the age. Ganoderma lucidum over a thousand years old has magical effects. For example, the Ganoderma lucidum guarded by the demon leopard in front of him has five-color light appearing, which is the first characteristic of the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum. This day is the same as the record of the master’s inheritance.
It has condensed and absorbed the essence
of heaven and earth for thousands of years.
The Ganoderma lucidum in it has powerful vitality and aura, and with the special environment it is nurtured in, it is a treasure.
Otherwise, whether in the Shenlong Materia Medica or some classics of the Jiuzhou Taoism, the Ganoderma lucidum is said to be an immortal grass that can prolong life and even make one immortal.
Of course, the immortal effect here refers to the age of the Ganoderma lucidum in Yang Yiyu’s opinion. The older the age, the stronger the effect. The
Ganoderma lucidum recorded in the Cultivation Encyclopedia has another name called Regeneration Grass, which is the main ingredient for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Yang Yiyu was very excited when he saw it. He is now at the peak of the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage. The next step is to build the foundation, which is a big hurdle.
Building the foundation requires forming a cultivation foundation in the body, laying a foundation, and opening up the Dantian. It is not easy at all. Don’t look at him now that he is at the peak of the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage. The bottleneck of the level, which is as thin as a piece of paper, is the foundation building, but it is extremely difficult to break through it.
Many people who practice Taoism, those with average qualifications can be stuck at the foundation building level for several years, or even decades in their lives, so the foundation building pill is the best pill to break through the bottleneck.
Yang Yiyun was moved when he saw this thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum.
However, at this moment, Yuan Chenzi and Taoist Changling got there first, one on the left and one on the right. Seeing that the two were about to rush over to pick the Ganoderma lucidum, the demon leopard roared: “Roar~”
The demon leopard was more anxious than Yang Yiyun. During the fight with Xia Lu, the demon leopard roared and its long tail of more than two meters behind it swept up, with a sound of breaking through the air, and threw it towards Yuan Chenzi and Taoist Changling who were close to the Ganoderma lucidum with full momentum.
Yang Yiyun had no doubt that if Yuan Chenzi and Taoist Changling did not dodge, the demon leopard’s tail could seriously injure them.
And the two of them also understood that this attack was not easy to deal with, so they could only dodge and leave the Ganoderma lucidum.
“Bang~” The demon leopard’s tail hit the boulder, making a loud noise, and a large piece of the millstone fell off the huge stone with a click.
This made Yuan Chenzi and Taoist Changling, including Yang Yiyu and Baishan, gasp. This demon leopard was not easy to deal with.
At this time, Yang Yiyu did not choose to approach the demon leopard, but went to Xia Lu to help her resist the demon leopard’s attack. Maybe it was because Xia Lu had angered the demon leopard before, and the beast did not divert its attention and give up fighting Xia Lu because of Yuan Chenzi and Changling’s approach.
With Yang Yiyu’s participation, the demon leopard was hit hard by Xia Lu and roared.
“Roar, roar, roar~” However, this roar seemed to be too long, and the sound was a bit wrong.
Yang Yiyu ignored it, and cooperated with Xia Lu to attack, approaching the Ganoderma lucidum little by little. He was looking for an opportunity to pick the Ganoderma lucidum as long as he could get close.
Fighting with the demon leopard, even as strong as Yang Yiyun’s current body, plus the true energy in his fists, Yang Yiyun’s claws scratched him all over, which frightened Yang Yiyun. The strength of this demon leopard should be at the peak of the second level of innateness.
The powerful and flexible body plus the sweeping tail did not allow Yang Yiyun and Xia Lu to get close to the boulder for a moment. At this time, Yuan Chenzi and Changling Laodao were driving on the side of the boulder, watching Yang Yiyun, Xia Lu and the demon leopard fight to the death.
Baishan was injured, but Baishan was actually thousands of steps away: “Master, I will help you too~”
As soon as the voice fell, he raised his head and joined the battle.
However, at this time, no one expected that a roar also sounded at the bottom of the mountain.
“Roar~”
It sounded like the roar of a leopard.
Everyone’s face changed at this moment.
Is there another demon leopard?
Sure enough, General Chang’s demon leopard roared in response.
The two roared in response, and in less than three breaths, a black shadow came running from a distance. It was the
same black panther.
It was another powerful demon beast.
In an instant, the second demon leopard roared and jumped up, flying five or six meters above Xia Lu, Yang Yiyun and Bai Shan.
When it landed, it pounced on Yang Yiyun with its front paws, and swept its tail across Bai Shan and Xia Lu like lightning.
In just a moment, Yang Yiyun’s face changed drastically. He clearly felt that the aura of the new demon leopard was stronger than the demon leopards in the field.
It made him feel pressured.
Facing the sharp claws of the demon leopard flying over, Yang Yiyun did not dare to take it lightly, and immediately hit it with a shocking palm.
“Bang~”
He was actually shaken back several steps under the claws of this demon leopard.
At the same time, Yang Yiyun saw Xia Lu and Bai Shan running fast one after another from the corner of his eye, and he should have felt that the sweep of the demon leopard’s tail was not small.
Xia Lu did retreat, but Bai Shan was a beat slower, perhaps because of his previous injury, and was hit hard by the demon leopard’s tail.
“Crack~”
The sound of broken bones appeared, and Bai Shan was thrown out more than ten meters away with a scream, and rolled directly into the bushes at the foot of the mountain.
Yang Yiyun’s heart was pounding. The human-headed demon leopard that came later was definitely a male leopard. It was too damn powerful, and its strength was definitely at the third level of innateness. Although Yang Yiyun had never met an ancient warrior at the third level of innateness, he had a positioning of this demon leopard.
It only took one confrontation to gain the upper hand.
At this time, the demon leopard’s pressure was greatly reduced, and it roared and pounced on the Taoist Changling who tried to approach Lingzhi again.
Yuan Chenzi’s eyes flickered. At this time, it seemed that he was the only one who was free. Seeing the demon leopard going to the opponent Changling, Yuan Chenzi suddenly pounced on Lingzhi, which was only two or three meters away.
But at this time, the demon leopard against Changling seemed to have noticed it and swung its tail hard at Yuan Chenzi. Yuan Chenzi was startled. He didn’t expect the demon leopard to be so alert. He gave up the Ganoderma and rolled on the ground, and then he and Changling Daoist were together.
Now the two of them worked together to deal with the demon leopard. The two innates dealt with the demon leopard and restrained the demon leopard.
As for Yang Yiyun, he and Xia Lu were entangled by the more powerful demon leopard, and they were at a disadvantage after several rounds.
Just when everyone was fighting, a figure flew down from a giant tree and went straight to Lingshi. He
picked up the Ganoderma cleanly and ran away, and his figure was as fast as lightning.
“Roar~”
“Roar~”
The two demon leopards were anxious first. After discovering that someone had taken the spirit beast away by trapping the word, they let out a thunderous roar.
In an instant, they stopped entangled, and their figures were as agile as ghosts, chasing after the person who stole the Ganoderma.
The pressure on Yang Yiyun and the other four was immediately relieved. The four looked at each other, and their faces were very ugly. They fought hard but made wedding clothes for others.
Everyone knew who this was.
It was undoubtedly the ancestor of the earth’s core!
Only he could be so fast just now, he had the magic talisman.
Yang Yiyu was surprised that the old man, the Selfish Ancestor, had a magic talisman on him.
Looking at the direction where the two demon leopards chased out, Yang Yiyu and Xia Lu looked at each other. Yang Yiyu immediately decided to chase them to see. Lingzhi was very useful to him. It was indispensable for refining the foundation-building pill. It was related to his own cultivation. This was a big deal. He
couldn’t let the Earth Core Ancestor take advantage of him.
He took a step and chased after him, and Xia Lu followed closely behind him.
