Chapter 312 – Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass

In the next few days, even though Zhao Fu found some things of value, he still hadn't discovered any Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass, disappointing him.

Zhao Fu had searched all of the areas nearby, and now, he had two options. He could go deeper into the Forest of Horrors, but he was already extremely deep. If he went any deeper, he would reach the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon’s den.

The second option was, of course, to leave the depths of the Forest of Horrors and see if there was any Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass in other regions. After all, he might not find any Dragon-Incubating Celestial Grass even if he went deeper, and it would be incredibly dangerous.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Fu decided to go deeper to look. If there was no Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass, he would immediately leave.

After making this decision, Zhao Fu headed in and became incredibly wary. With Zhao Fu’s current strength, he wouldn’t be able to defeat the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon. He didn’t want to use his Nation Armament either because it would consume a great amount of Fate.

Zhao Fu completely hid his aura and headed onwards, not making any noise when he walked. This was because Zhao Fu was using his Flight Stone, allowing him to travel a meter above the ground.

As Zhao Fu headed onwards, the spiritual aura became denser and denser, and spirit grasses and fruits could be found everywhere. There were many different types, and even the ordinary trees and grasses were filled with dense lifeforce. At the same time, there weren’t any large creatures here.

There were only some butterflies and bees flying about, and it looked much more beautiful here than outside. Zhao Fu appreciated the scenery around him as he continued looking for Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass.

White Jade Sun Fruit – Upper Stage 3 spirit fruit – collected!

Aura Condensing Spirit Grass – Complete Stage 3 spirit grass – collected!

Licorice Medicinal Root – Middle Stage 3 spirit root – collected!

This was indeed a land of treasures, and in less than an hour, Zhao Fu had dug up 200 or so spirit grasses. There were dozens of different types, and the worst ones were Stage 3 spirit grasses – by now, Zhao Fu didn’t even bother with anything below Stage 3.

However, despite collecting so many spirit grasses, Zhao Fu still hadn't found any Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass. As such, Zhao Fu could only look ahead as a serious expression appeared on his face. He could detect a powerful aura from ahead, which was where the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon was.

This made Zhao Fu hesitate, and he considered waiting until the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon left. However, who knew when it would leave? He might have to wait half a month; could he really wait that long? That definitely wouldn’t be possible.

As such, Zhao Fu decided to continue onwards.

Now, he was using all of his strength to conceal his presence, and he didn’t dare to be careless as he advanced like a ghost.

Soon, Zhao Fu arrived at a mountain and a valley, and the spiritual aura was extremely dense. Even boulders and streams possessed a spiritual aura here, and the powerful aura seemed to cause the air here to freeze.

The Six-Eyed Flood Dragon would be right ahead, and Zhao Fu once again stopped to consider if he wanted to advance.

Of course, he couldn’t just advance directly because he would definitely be discovered. As such, he flew by the side of the mountain, and this was quite easy to do with the Flight Stone.

Soon, Zhao Fu arrived at a small hill and looked down. There was a large piece of flat ground below, and it was covered with green grass. At the center, a 1,000 meter long black Flood Dragon lay there sleeping.

By its side, there were patches of black grass. The grass was about 15 centimeters long, and it was curved like snakes. Each blade of grass also had four black leaves shaped like claws.

This was the Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass that Zhao Fu had been looking for.

Zhao Fu was quite delighted, and he had never expected to see so much Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass. The blades of grass were simply innumerable.

A single blade of Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass could reduce the incubation period by four months, two could reduce it by eight months, and three could reduce it by a full year.

However, Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass could only be used once per month, or Zhao Fu would be able to hatch the Wyvern immediately with three blades of Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass.

Since he could only use one blade of Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass per month, it would take him three months to hatch the Wyvern, which was already quite good.

Now, the key question was how to obtain the Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass. They were right beside the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon, and it was simply too dangerous to go up and collect them.

Suddenly, Zhao Fu thought about the Dream Incense that he had purchased at the auction that could cause even Lord grade creatures to fall asleep. The Dream Incense would definitely be able to keep the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon asleep.

However, Zhao Fu already had plans for the Dream Incense, and it would only last for three minutes. Did he really have to use it here?

Zhao Fu started to hesitate, and he looked at the soundly-sleeping Six-Eyed Flood Dragon. In the end, Zhao Fu decided not to use the Dream Incense because it was central to another one of Zhao Fu’s plans. Without it, Zhao Fu wouldn’t be able to carry out that plan.

At the same time, Zhao Fu thought that it would be safe to take just three blades of Dragon Incubating Grass because the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon was sleeping and there was so much of it. After taking those three blades, he would immediately run – surely he wouldn’t wake up Six-Eyed Flood Dragon.

As such, Zhao Fu nervously started to act, and he slowly floated downwards.

Everything went quite smoothly, and soon, Zhao Fu reached the ground and started to slowly approach the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon.

Suddenly, the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon rolled on the ground, scaring Zhao Fu into immediately hiding behind a large rock.

After a while, when he saw that the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon was still asleep, Zhao Fu cautiously came out and breathed in before holding his breath and cautiously moving towards the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon again.

One meter… 20 meters… 100 meters…

Zhao Fu came closer and closer to the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon, and he began to feel more and more nervous. He felt as if his heart was in his throat, and soon, Zhao Fu was only 200 meters away from it.

This was where the closest Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass was, and Zhao Fu stretched out his hand and plucked one blade while warily looking at the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon.

From up close, the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon looked even more domineering and mighty. Its glowing, black scales; sharp claws; powerful body; and ferocious-looking head all gave off a mighty air, and it was as if it could destroy this entire region.

Zhao Fu stopped hesitating and lightly pulled upwards, collecting his first blade of Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass.

After plucking out this blade of grass, Zhao Fu anxiously looked at the Six-Eyed Flood Dragon again. When he saw that it was still asleep, he reached out towards another blade of Dragon Incubating Celestial Grass and pulled it out.

Suddenly, the air around him froze as the sleeping Six-Eyed Flood Dragon suddenly opened its six blood-red eyes.
