BXBX NOVEL Chapter 357 Borrowing From Nature?
Between the colorful forest land that stretched through a vast area, Multiple Beasts could be seen searching for their food and moving around. Between them, a strange figure appeared concealed in the veil of shadow. He moved around and collected many precious elixirs and herbs.
Strangely, the beasts around him could not notice him as if he had never existed. This figure moved away and kept jumping from one tree to another, only stopping after ensuring he was safe. The veil around him dissipated, and a handsome face was revealed.
Who could it be if not the 'Reaper of Mazar' while other students were busy fighting against other Beasts and running? Rishi was having fun borrowing things he needed from Mother Nature. He wouldn't mind teaching them his philosophy if he ever met them.
Who said its stealing? Is there someone's name written on these treasures? Didn't they grow up naturally in nature? Then isn't taking them borrowing from nature?
As he had been here for many hours and already had many useful elixirs, This place was filled with elixirs and herbs helpful in building a stronger body. Rishi needed them if he wanted to increase the speed of creating Mana veins. After the creation of the mana heart, it was time for him to create Mana Veins.
At first, he thought that they would not take much of his time, but only after he started did he know that creating them took time; while creating his Mana Heart, he was able to take a shortcut by using a method with more risks and was also lucky to find a Mana Vein.
There was no such shortcut for creating Mana veins; He had to take a step-by-step approach. The only thing that could increase his speed was rare herbs like these that were good for nourishing and strengthening the body.
He decided to move deeper into the forest. As he kept moving, he appeared in a place filled with tall trees that looked very old. The Beasts here were stronger and more aggressive; he had witnessed constant fights among the Beasts. Here the resources were of better quality, which made multiple Beasts migrate to this part.
As the number of Beasts increased, the resources decreased, which led to multiple battles. Rishi was not able to see this much fighting; he liked the calm, beautiful, and peaceful outer region. He decided that things could not go on like this and that he needed to show these Beasts the path of peace.
His shadow shook before moving into a cloak and surrounding him. With a gust of wind, he disappeared. A shadow flashed from one place to another. Wherever it passed through, the battle stopped. Soon there were no more fights in the region; only angry roars that stopped after a time could be heard.
The Beasts fighting against each other could be seen moving together, sniffing and checking the bushes. It appeared as if they were searching for someone.
A shadow figure appeared far from that area. It turned into Rishi. The first thing he did after transforming back was to wipe his illusionary sweat. "So much work. It makes me wonder sometimes. Why am I so kind? Like an Angel of peace, I stopped the fighting there." He acted like a saint and had come after enlightening the ferocious beasts.
He had succeeded in stopping the fights; the method he chose was not to make both parties compromise but to remove the root of the problem. If there is no bamboo, how can anyone make a bamboo flute? (a famous quote)
The next moment, he chuckled, "They should be thankful I showed them the way of life; fighting with other beasts is not the correct path. Instead, they should work together for a greater goal, like they are doing now by searching for me.
If only the Beasts passing by could understand his nonsense, Only God knew what they might do, but after looking at their anger, it might not be that hard to guess. "Why does it remind me of the tale 'One Bread, Two Cats'?
This is a famous tale, In which two cats find a loaf of bread. They started arguing and fighting with each other to get it. A monkey approached them and offered to help. As they had no other way, they decided to take his help. He took out a balance scale and broke the bread into two parts.
He then puts both parts on different sides. One side has more bread. He breaks the bigger bread and eats it; he does it many times, and soon he eats the last pieces and runs away. At last, both cats had to sleep hungry, learning an important lesson.
After solving the conflict in this area, he decides to move to a different area. The same phenomenon repeats in that area too; after hoarding away many elixirs and herbs, Rishi decides to rest. While it was fun borrowing things from nature,
He soon saw a giant tree; there was a cave formed on the bottom side of its wide trunk. He entered inside it and concealed that place before taking out his loot and checking which ones were most precious, which he had to prioritize next time.
He found out that among the herbs, there was a strange Red and orange-colored grass. He used his 'inspect' skill on it, and a window soon appeared before his eyes.
[NAME: Dragon Grass
INFORMATION: A type of grass whose ancestors have been witnessing the might of the Dragonoid Species for generations, with time it absorbed some of the presence and Aura and mutated.
USE: Can be used to strengthen the body; soaking in warm water with other elixirs and Dragon Grass mixed would stabilize the body.]
"Oh, who could have thought this grass would be so precious? I was right not to throw it away, thinking it was some trash herb, but I have another similar grass the only change in its orange color." He watched as a similar type of grass appeared in his hand with an orange color.
He used his 'inspect' skills on it and found it was higher quality than the red one. "So the color separates the quality. The red one I found in the border area, while here I found Orange ones. Is there Dragon Grass of stronger quality? I would only know as I moved deeper.
Next, he inspected other herbs and elixirs; they were all precious and of good quality but of little use to him. After he scanned all his loot, he decided to go even deeper. If the deeper area had more precious herbs, he was wasting time here.
He started hopping from one tree to another. It took him some time, but he appeared at the place. In front of him was a thick forest. The trees here were even taller and had more leaves. The Beasts here lived on these tall trees.
