Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL] Chapter 117: One Year Later

"Is there another treasure in this cave?" Yang Shi asked while looking around with a dubious expressions.

"There is indeed another treasure." Shen Xu chuckled.

"Where?Why didn’t I see it?"

"It’s under the roots of the tree."

"Under the roots..." Yang Shi frowned but was soon enlightened.

"Master, do you want to transplant the tree?"

"No." Shen Xu shook his head.

Although he was not a native, Shen Xu still thought of the Canglan continent as his ho.

Because of this, he didn’t want to recklessly plunder the resources of the Canglan continent.

Rather than transplant the red-veined loquats fruit tree into his Chaos Fla Space, he planned to leave it for future generations.

As for him, he would plant the loquat cores which would eventually grow into new trees.

"If not the tree then what?" Yang Shi couldn’t help but be confused.

"You will see." Shen Xu said and began to dig around the tree.

Soon after, a garlicky sll filled the cave.

"This sll..." Yang Shi muttered and blocked it’s senses.

"As I thought." Shen Xu happily exclaid.

"Master, what is that sll?"

"It’s the sll of white truffles." The double answered while carefully extracting the truffles.

Half an hour later, Shen Xu looked at the two boxes before him.

"Twenty nine kilograms of level one white truffles and seventeen fifteen kilograms of level two. It’s a good harvest."

From reading spiritual coking books, Shen Xu knew many ingredients.

Like in his original world, truffles were a delicacy in the cultivation world.

Not only were they delicious, but also contained a lot of spiritual qi.

’These truffles are not inferior to the red-veined loquats. No..., they are better than the loquats.’ He thought.

Each red-veined loquat had a lot of energy and could help a cultivator advance one small realm.

However, only the first loquat had that effect.

After the first, the effect would disappear and the loquats would beco ordinary spiritual fruits.

The truffles were different.

Although their effect wasn’t as dramatic or imdiate as the loquats, they could be eaten continuously

’With these truffles, I won’t have to worry about Yang Shi.’ He thought but soon frowned.

’The premise is that I can cook them into spiritual foods.’

"The level two white truffles almost have the sa amount of qi as the red-veined loquats." Yang Shi observed and Shen Xu nodded.

"I will cook them into spiritual foods. With them, we can both advance to the peak stage."

Hearing this, Yang Shi couldn’t help but be excited.

Although Shen Xu didn’t say anything, Yang Shi knew he was holding his master back.

Unfortunately, the Canglan continent was too poor. Without proper resources, he could only continue to be a drag.

Fortunately, his master was lucky and often found the necessary resources.

’Things will change when we go to a richer continent.’ Yang Shi reassured himself.

After putting away the truffles, Shen Xu followed the other tunnel and went to the porcupine’s cave.

Unfortunately, he only found a few level two spirit grasses and a bunch of crystal quills.

After collecting them, he returned to the tree cave, collected the quills and loot, burned the swordsman’s body, and left the cave.

When he reached the mouth of the tunnel, he encountered Zhen Yuan.

"Is it over?" Shen Xu asked and Zhen Yuan nodded.

"The martial artist is dead but the others left."

"Killed by the monster?"

"No. He tried to take advantage of while I was fighting the monster." Zhen Yuan explained and Shen Xu nodded in understanding.

"Brother Yuan, I found a good thing..." Shen Xu said and happily presented the truffles.

When he saw them, Zhen Yuan smiled.

"It’s really a good thing."

"Right?!" Shen Xu chuckled and put the boxes away.

"I want to see if I can find more in the mountains."

"Good." Zhen Yuan didn’t refuse.

Two weeks later, Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan finally left the Black Turtle mountain.

After two weeks of searching, they didn’t find more white truffles.

However, they did find thirty two kilograms of level one black truffles and nine kilograms of level two.

Although black truffles had less qi than white truffles, they were still useful and Shen Xu didn’t look down on them.

After leaving BlackTurtle Mountain, the two went to the Sunrise forest and soon teleported to their room in the academy.

"The harvest from this trip was not bad." Shen Xu stated and Zhen Yuan nodded in agreent.

"Brother Yuan, we have one year and three months before the opening of the demon plants forest. We have to make good use of this ti."

"I know." Zhen Yuan said with a solemn expression.

"What’s on your mind?"

"Manager Zhang found most of the blood and herbs we need for the level three monster blood bath but not all."

"Let’s take our ti.. Maybe we will have found them by the ti we begin needing the level three bath."

"You are rihht." Zhen Yuan nodded.

"What about Song Wancheng, have you heard from him?"

"Not yet." Shen Xu frowned and continued.

"I even ssages Song Wanqing but she hasn’t replied."

"I will ask Manager Zhang. As a manager of the Myriad Treasures Pavillion, he may know sothing."

"Okay."

After that, Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu went into seclusion.

Since Zhen Yuan had already prepared the blood baths, the two didn’t waste ti.

In each day, they spent six hours refining their bodies, and doing other things for the rest of the ti.

Shen Xu beca a spiritual chef and could now prepare the truffles.

The two refined the ten drops of soul water.

Shen Xu and Yang Shi advanced to the Peak stage of the foundation establishnt realm.

After leaving seclusion, Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu went to the soul training tower but the results were as expected. Their soul power had long surpassed the third level.

Later, the two went to the gravity tower and quickly climbed to the third floor.

Ti passed while training their bodies and before they knew it, it was almost ti for the opening of the demon plants forest.

Soon after Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu left the gravity tower, they received a ssage from Lin Xiang.
