1991 Bloodline-Cutting Black Carp
The Holy Lady’s expression of worry made the factions’ members aware that this year’s examination was not going to be as strict as previous years.
At that moment, Lin Yuan crossed through the dimensional rift with Ding Chengshuo and entered the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.
The instant that they entered, Lin Yuan heard Morbius’ excited voice, Partner, you’ve been striving to find the Ley Line Spirit Spring mouth to increase the production volume of the Element Well. There have to be at least five Ley Line Spirit Springs here.
“Currently, the area range I can sense is limited. If you move around, I’ll be able to sense a wider area. There’s a high chance that you’ll be able to gain more benefits!
“Any type of spirit spring will be extremely nourishing to plants. That lifeform can use its bloodline power to mutate plant-type feys, so it must be a plant itself. There’s a high chance we can use the spirit springs to triangulate the lifeform’s general location.”
Delight spread across Lin Yuan’s face.
When he went to the Yi family’s treasure vault, Lin Yuan had asked Yi Huailong if the Yi family had any spirit springs, and Yi Huailong had told him with certainty that almost all of the spirit springs that had been uncovered in the Divine Wood Federation had been claimed by the Yang family. They were then transferred into the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.
Although Yi Huailong could not be certain of how many mouths of spirit springs there were and thus had not given an exact number, Morbius had sensed five spirit springs the moment Lin Yuan entered the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.
There had to be a decently high number of mouths of spirit springs inside the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.
It was likely that the Yang family had put so much effort into searching for spirit springs because they had made a deal with the Holy Lady.
It was likely that the Yang family was trying to gather spirit springs even outside of the Divine Wood Federation.
When Luo Lan entered the Astronomical Parliament, Lin Yuan and Wen Yu had looked through her memories and experiences.
Luo Lan clearly remembered the Divine Wood Federation proposing a collaboration with the Iron Hammer Federation more than ten years ago. They wanted to trade for the mouths of spirit springs in the Iron Hammer Federation.
At that time, the Iron Hammer Federation had been in the middle of winter and in greatest need of food.
At that time, the bandit groups from the Divine Wood Federation had been slaughtering the merchant groups from the Iron Hammer Federation. Thus, the number of merchant groups in the Iron Hammer Federation had fallen greatly.
Moreover, that year had been exceptionally cold, and they needed more food than ever.
Hence, Luo Lan’s father, the then-king of the Iron Hammer Federation, had agreed to the trade in exchange for rations and wool to tide them over winter.
Spirit springs were the veins of the earth.
There was always lush flora and fauna around the spirit springs.
Normally, the Divine Wood Federation’s trade would have cut off all of the Iron Hammer Federation’s veins.
But the Iron Hammer Federation had still agreed because the Divine Wood Federation had agreed to provide a year’s worth of resources and because the spirit springs were not of great use to the Iron Hammer Federation.
It was much too cold in the Iron Hammer Federation, and it was covered in ice at the end of the year.
Although the spirit springs would not freeze, no resources that the Iron Hammer Federation needed could be grown around the spirit springs in below-zero temperatures.
The Iron Hammer Federation had tried to address the issue by sending five Class 4 Creation Masters to an area with four spirit springs where they used fire-type feys to increase the area’s temperature. As a result, the plant-type feys had indeed grown successfully.
However, the price was much too high.
Rather than spending so much manpower and Creation Master resources, it would be better to mine for more metals and hunt for more beasts with beautiful fur before the winter season arrived.
Then, the merchant groups could use these resources to trade for more resources from the Divine Wood Federation.
There were a total of 11 mouths of spirit springs in the Iron Hammer Federation. If the Divine Wood Federation had traded with the Iron Hammer Federation to obtain the mouths of spirit springs, there was no question they had made the same request to the Great Lush Federation and that the Great Lush Federation had agreed.
Otherwise, there was no way that the Divine Wood Federation would have left the Great Lush Federation alone.
This meant that it was likely that all of the spirit spring mouths in the Startling Lines Continent had gathered in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.
Hence, Lin Yuan was destined to sweep up a large harvest from the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.
Currently, Lin Yuan had to be extremely prudent when using the Element Well water and tried to use as small drops as possible.
The purer the elemental energy, the more beneficial it would be to a fey.
The Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil, Universe, Dark Blue, and even the Source Sand needed large amounts of the Element Well’s water.
This time, after harvesting from the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm, Lin Yuan was not after free usage of the Element Well’s water—its volume should increase sufficiently to meet his needs.
Lin Yuan suddenly thought of something and asked Ding Chengshuo, “City Lord Ding, are the plant-type feys with the Sacred Wood bloodline are usually found near the spirit springs?”
Ding Chengshuo recalled the few times that he had been in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm, and shock spread across his face.
He realized that the times that he found the plant-type feys with the Sacred Wood bloodline were all near the spirit springs.
If Lin Yuan had not mentioned this, Ding Chengshuo would not have realized it on his own.
“You’re right! The plant-type feys with the Sacred Wood bloodline were all either growing around the spirit springs. Of course, it’s also possible for the plant-type feys with the Sacred Wood bloodline to be found around the spirit springs. But any further, and there will be none.”
Ding Chengshuo’s reply told Lin Yuan how the lifeform was using its own bloodline to nourish the plant-type feys
The spirit springs spewing from the mouths were the mediums that the lifeforms used to nourish other plants with its bloodline.
To do this, the lifeform had to be connected to all of the spirit springs.
The locations of the plant-type feys with the Sacred Wood bloodline were the best proof of this deduction.
The plant-type feys around the spirit springs would have the chance to obtain the Sacred Wood bloodline because the water from the spirit springs had seeped into the ground they were planted in.
The plant-type feys that were further could not access the spring water and thus did not gain the Sacred Wood bloodline.
Lin Yuan now had three ways to find the lifeform that had created the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.
Firstly, he could use the positions of the plant-type feys with the Sacred Wood bloodline to trace back to where the spirit springs were. Once he was there, he would use Morbius to sense the lifeform.
Secondly, Lin Yuan could mess up the Holy Lady’s setup of the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.
