Chapter 1523: Chapter 1518: Human Tree (27)
It actually works?
Though light and slender, the mont that Costic Knife was drawn, it undoubtedly brought a shock comparable to the Sword in the Stone to the team.
After all, Lady Ji Ning’s description may have been sowhat challenging to the imagination, but rather than doubting her perspective, others leaned towards questioning their own understanding.
Thus, it was naturally assud that this “her” Dagger belonged to the sa category of exclusive tools as her attire.
However, in the situation where even Ji Ning herself couldn’t pull it out, the self-assured Anke seed to do it with little effort.
“Are you sure, Lady Ji Ning, that it’s not one for each person in different colors?”
Yet, it appeared that the involved party was also sowhat taken aback by these developnts.
As the blade lightly slid across the palm, Fu Qian frowned and looked at Ji Ning, asking.
“Besides, I don’t seem to feel any changes, nor did I receive the kind of abstract information you ntioned.”
“…Of course not.”
Ji Ning, having sowhat recovered from the initial shock, denied softly with a vacant look.
This overly smooth scene clearly made her suspicious of Fu Qian’s volunteering.
Even Mr. Li Sr. not far away was more focused on Fu Qian’s face than on the Dagger.
“Like wearing clothes on your body, you need to use it.”
But regardless, it was progress after all.
Though doubtful, without any reason strong enough to support any possible conclusion, Ji Ning didn’t waste ti, guiding Fu Qian on its usage.
“Cut an open wound and sar the blood on it—”
Wow—
Before the words were finished, another voice interrupted the exploration process.
Accompanied by it, blood was sprayed out.
…
Crying, but not the usual crying.
The sound was evidently much more tragic and literally ear-piercing.
Because the source was right beside them.
Fu Qian turned his head, looking at Luyi, who could barely stand.
The baby’s cry was coming from him.
It wasn’t that he was pregnant with another one so quickly; the sound actually ca from the tree.
As if suddenly injected with growth hormones, the already lush Aoki began more exaggerated developnt and even “blooming”.
More than one flower bud-like structure was rapidly swelling on it.
The speed was so fast that the stretching and withering deep red petals seed to be ripped apart like human tissue, even truly splattering blood.
Within this firework-like scene, smooth-skinned green fruits erged.
You could even faintly see heads and limbs on them, and the cries were mixing and weaving together from there.
Is it actually a Ginseng Fruit Tree?
This sudden change, though bizarre, wasn’t hard to understand—Brother Luyi’s accumulated erosion had erupted again.
Only this ti it manifested on the tree rather than in the flesh, slightly challenging to imagination.
Of course, as were the shapes of those fruits.
“Is it still okay?”
While Fu Qian was sighing inwardly, Mr. Li Sr. asked Anke standing beside him in a low voice.
“…It should still be okay.”
Startled for a mont, Aike quickly understood the other’s concern about whether she could handle it again, gritting her teeth and nodding.
In the next mont, without hesitation, she stepped forward and grasped the tree.
In the blink of an eye, the Ginseng Fruits stopped growing.
…
The Demigod Aike’s ability remained miraculous.
The sudden burst of erosion was frozen once again in a similar manner.
However, it was only frozen; the changes that had occurred were ultimately irreversible, leaving Luyi with an abundance of fruits before him.
The only consolation was that the rapidly ripened fruits no longer seed to be fleshly creations and looked edible.
“Thank you…”
Though looking extrely haggard, the rescued Luyi struggled to express gratitude.
“It’s becoming stronger; I can feel… that voice is planting seeds inside my body.”
He then looked at Li He, his tone trying hard to be calm yet failing.
“And not just in the flesh; it’s turning everything of mine into nourishnt…”
“A very accurate description; in fact, it’s not just you, I feel the sa way.”
The implication of Luyi’s words was unmistakably a wish to find a way out as quickly as possible.
Grasping this point, Li He didn’t engage in aningless consoling, his eyes lowering to his abdon as he spoke.
“I can feel, sothing is trying to co alive there, sothing that transcends flesh, connected to in a special way.”
“Offspring?”
As the tension escalated to its peak, Fu Qian interjected, sharing his opinion.
Hmm?
This ti, everyone looked over.
“What’s wrong? From the descriptions just now, I think that’s a fitting term, potentially explaining why it’s so difficult to resist and impossible to eradicate.”
Clearly aware his wording was unusual, Fu Qian showed no intention of modifying it.
“Because I once learned a phrase: the highest level of corrosion is always life, and the concept of offspring even represents the continuation of one’s own life, likely making the effect even stronger—”
“Enough!”
…
Under pressure, more people seed eager to interrupt.
Looking at the suddenly sowhat unsettled Aike, Fu Qian understood his description displeased others.
But a Demigod, how could soone like that be so emotional…
In the next mont, Aike’s originally sowhat pale face turned semi-transparent in his field of vision.
This was similar to when she had been trapped earlier, using a Ghostly Form to counter.
Compared to flesh, this non-corporeal state seed far removed from the concept of offspring, a good ans to resist erosion, alas…
Wow—
In the next mont, an eerie, unreal cry ca from Aike’s abdon.
The level didn’t seem so deep, but transforming into a Ghostly Form didn’t spare her from erosion.
What’s most astonishing was that the cries weren’t singular.
Unlike the mixed cries from Luyi, these layered cries appeared to follow so pattern.
Like a new life within the Ghostly body, enveloping another crying Ghost within, continuing in this loop.
“Aike!”
In this sudden change, Ji Ning’s nearly sharp voice rang out.
The next mont, a special form of the Night Watchman Demigod shimred like waves, and the overlapping cries quieted down.
It was easy to think it involved a similar ntal piercing technique to forcibly suppress such changes.
“I have a question.”
After completing this temporary redy, Lady Ji Ning stood motionless for seconds before turning to Fu Qian and softly asked.
“So why… do you remain unhard?”
