Chapter 685: Chapter 691: Recovery Chapter 685: Chapter 691: Recovery “What!”
Xiaoqing shouted in alarm, cursing, “Da Qing, have you lost your mind!”
“This is a spiritual object capable of evolving your bloodline by five grades! It’s not sothing you can co by easily! If you miss this opportunity, who knows if you’ll ever get another! When you broke through to the fourth order, you knew how hard it was to accumulate enough mana, do you really plan to remain stuck at the fourth order forever!”
“I know…”
Xiaoqing snapped back, “If you know, then why are you still doing this! If not for yourself, you should consider it for Jiu!”
He couldn’t comprehend Da Qing’s actions at all; to them, were offspring and progeny really more important than their own paths?
Even if higher cultivation made it harder to have offspring, who said that they would definitely not have any in the future?
“I will find my own way to resolve this. I definitely won’t hold Jiu back,” Da Qing said with determination.
Xiaoqing, on hearing this, beca so irate he could hardly stand it, cursing, “What can you possibly resolve! If you had the ability…”
“Alright, alright.”
Li Zhirui quickly interjected to cut off Xiaoqing’s words, fearing they were growing too harsh, saying, “Since Da Qing has made up his mind, let him be. The Luminous Green Fruit was ant for his use to begin with.”
“Hmph! A ti will co when you regret this!” Xiaoqing huffed coldly, realizing he could not persuade these two ‘fools’, and flew off in a huff.
Li Zhirui shook his head; Xiaoqing did not know that the special spirit plant growing in his space was a Luminous Green Fruit Spirit Tree, but even if he had known, he would probably have reacted the sa way.
After all, while the spirit tree seed to be growing well, who could guarantee that it would definitely bear fruit?
“Here is the Luminous Green Fruit,” Li Zhirui said, producing the well-sealed jade box, “Rest up for a few days, and then co help refine this spirit fruit.”
“But the children…”
“Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of them,” Li Zhirui assured him seriously, “Your current situation is delicate; an accident could lead to unending regret.”
Da Qing was taken aback for a mont but then thanked Jiu sincerely, “Thank you, Brother Jiu.”
“No need for thanks between you and . Go rest.”
As Da Qing left, Li Zhirui sighed again. After this ordeal, he wondered if Da Qing would beco dispirited or reflect deeply and beco more devoted to cultivation.
But one thing was certain: Mu Ling’er’s actions had a profoundly negative impact on him.
Ti flew by, and after five days of rest, Da Qing, having regained much of his vitality, could hardly wait to appear before Li Zhirui.
“Take it,” Li Zhirui said with a sigh in his heart, reflecting on a parent’s deepest love; for his children, Da Qing had abandoned his own future prospects.
Without further thought, he released the seal on the jade box and took out the Luminous Green Fruit. Imdiately, an exuberant energy perated the air, slightly invigorating the weak young turtles.
Seeing this, Da Qing’s eyes moistened, and he began to refine the Luminous Green Fruit with his mana, carefully integrating the overwhelming vitality into the bodies of the young turtles.
This was an incredibly delicate task because the young turtles were too weak to endure too much vitality all at once. A mont’s carelessness could lead to their conditions worsening even further.
The whole process took a full nine days!
If it hadn’t been for Li Zhirui’s assistance, Da Qing alone could never have endured till the end.
Thankfully, the result was positive. With the help of the Luminous Green Fruit, the severely depleted young turtles had fully recovered.
However, whereas both parents were of the fourth-order Qinggui, and their offspring should have maintained an unchanged bloodline, their bloodline had started to degenerate!
Da Qing didn’t care much for this; all he hoped for was that they would grow up safe and healthy.
“Now you can rest assured, hurry up and take them back to rest. I’m leaving too,”
Even the energetic Li Zhirui was beginning to feel the strain. Before coming to help, he had just returned from the Central Region and hadn’t rested for even a mont in between.
“Jiu has worked hard during this ti!”
Da Qing, face drained of color, sincerely promised, “Once the children grow a little, I will go out to search for Spiritual Objects to resolve the bloodline issue.”
“No rush,” Li Zhirui shook his head without directly responding.
The situation of Da Qing was not suitable for going out alone, because within the territory of the Devil Race, his human aura would be expelled by other mbers of the Devil Race. In severe cases, they might even launch a manhunt against him.
Similarly, in the lands of the human race, cultivators would not treat him equally just because he was a cultivator’s Contracted Spirit Beast. What awaited him were countless ambushes and battles.
“Rest well.”
Having said that, Li Zhirui drifted away.
“Has Da Qing’s problem been resolved?”
After returning to the cave dwelling, Jiang Fengwu imdiately poured a bowl of spirit tea to relieve fatigue for him.
She had visited several tis over these days too.
When she saw Da Qing treating the young turtles with a Fifth-order Spiritual Object, Jiang Fengwu almost couldn’t help but go up and snatch the Spiritual Object away—what a waste!
But now that the Spiritual Objects had already been used, it was aningless to talk about it; it only made her feel the pinch.
“Hmm, on the surface, it seems resolved, but as for the issues deep in Da Qing’s heart, I’m afraid they won’t be so easily overco,” Li Zhirui said, sowhat helpless.
With such an incident, there was nothing he could do to help. Da Qing had to get through this on his own.
If he managed to overco this, his spiritual heart might greatly improve, which could be of great benefit to his own path.
If he remained trapped in this situation, he would probably stay like this for life, which would also affect Li Zhirui’s cultivation.
“Everything has settled, now go and rest,”
Li Zhirui, too tired to even speak, nodded and returned to the quiet chamber to start his cultivation.
After several days of deep rest, he finally fully recovered.
Then he found ti to have a good talk with Da Qing.
Mainly about how he had dug up the Spirit Tree of Luminous Green Fruit in the Secret Realm, and it was growing well in the space. There might even be a chance of a second fruit, so there was no rush to go out.
After all, Da Qing was only at the early stage of Fifth-order and far from a breakthrough, and could afford to wait for the lengthy growth of the Spirit Fruit.
In the following days, Wanxian Island beca much quieter. Many clan mbers were cultivating, and Li Zhirui was doing the sa, striving to advance beyond the late Nascent Soul stage as quickly as possible.
Until more than a year later, a sudden Thunder Tribulation shattered the quiet atmosphere of the island.
“Who is undergoing the Tribulation Transcendence?”
“I don’t know. I haven’t heard about anyone exchanging for the Golden Spirit Pill.”
The clan mbers chattered until they reached the courtyard of the one undergoing the tribulation, then soone rembered this was Li Wenli’s cave dwelling.
“Li Wenli? The next Clan Leader candidate carefully nurtured by the Clan Leader?”
“If he is successful, we may have to hold the Clan Leader transition ceremony earlier than planned.”
While they discussed amongst themselves, they remained conscious enough to withdraw from the range of Tribulation Thunder.
