Chapter 174 - 173: The Terrifying Chaos Virtue Holy Body.
Upon hearing that,
Xuanqing opened his eyes and waved to Great Immortal Zhenyuan, indicating that he was fine.
With a thought,
[Ding- Do you want to spend 200,000 Ingots to reduce the target to the infant stage and upload it?]
It takes 200,000 ingots just to downgrade and collect it?
Although it feels a bit expensive, it’s nothing compared to the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
“Confirm upload!”
[-200,000 Ingots!]
Following the deduction of the ingots, the progress bar, which was originally at a snail’s pace of a few percents, suddenly soared.
[Product uploading… 0.1%… 0.3%… 0.9%…]
Although the speed was still slow, the progress bar visibly increased.
Two days later,
A notification of a successful upload finally sounded in his mind.
[Ding- Congratulations, upload successful, Store increment: Ginseng Fruit Tree Sapling (100,000)]
“Hiss… It only takes 100,000 ingots to exchange?” Xuanqing gasped.
He originally thought that the Ginseng Fruit Tree, one of the ten great spiritual roots of Heaven and Earth, even in its infant state, would be unaffordable for him, but it turned out to be only 100,000 ingots, which was a bit too little, wasn’t it?
He then muttered in his heart,
“Purchase Ginseng Fruit Tree seedling!”
[Ding- Not enough Heavenly Merit, purchase failed!]
Listening to the notification,
Xuanqing’s mouth twitched slightly, realizing that the 100,000 referred to 100,000 Heavenly Merits and not 100,000 ingots. It shouldn’t have been so simple.
“Well, the Ginseng Fruit Tree is uploaded to the store eventually, and I’ll be able to exchange it one day.”
“Now, let’s get the ginseng fruit first.”
Xuanqing comforted himself in his mind, then, with a thought, accelerated time towards the Ginseng Fruit Tree again.
[Ding! -90,000 Ingots!]
As the ingots were deducted, the Ginseng Fruit Tree began to change, and the roots that pierced the void and went deep into the chaos began to wriggle frantically, absorbing the chaotic qi from the endless void.
Moments later,
As the thirty fruits on the Ginseng Fruit Tree ripened,
Xuanqing opened his eyes and removed his hands from the tree trunk.
“Young friend, it’s just some ginseng fruits, there’s no need for you to go all-out like this!” Seeing the task complete, Zhen Yuanzi couldn’t help but advise.
He knew that the young friend in front of him wasn’t just a disciple in Old Lord’s heart.
“Hehc~”
Xuanqing gave an awkward laugh, not knowing how to explain himself.
Fortunately, the goal of this trip had been achieved, and although the Ginseng Fruit Tree sapling was a bit expensive, it was finally uploaded to the store.
“Thank you, senior, for your help. Now that everything is done, I won’t bother you anymore!” Xuanqing clasped his hands in gratitude.
“Mm, alright, next time don’t cause such a ruckus again. Remember to always act within your abilities!”
Great Immortal Zhenyuan waved his hand.
“I understand.”
“Good.”
Moments later,
Seeing the young friend Xuanqing still standing in front of him, not moving, and showing no intention of leaving,
Zhenyuan was taken aback and then realized, couldn’t help but laugh and scold, “You sly kid, are you trying to make me addicted to sending you off?”
“Alright, alright!”
As he spoke,
The duster in his hand waved, making ripples in the air, and directly tearing a hole in the space of the Primordial World.
Seeing this scene,
Xuanqing was overjoyed, quickly made a hand seal, raised it above his head, and shouted, “Thank you, senior, for sending me off, I’m leaving!”
After speaking, he turned into a stream of light and entered the torn hole.
Black Wind Mountain.
In the sky, waves of ripples spread, and then a dark hole was formed.
Seeing this scene.
The people of Black Wind Mountain, who had experienced this once before, understood that their Sir had returned, and they didn’t crowd around him as enthusiastically as the first time.
Moments later.
Xuanqing leaked out from the dark entrance, steadied his body, and slowly landed on the ground.
“Tsk, tsk, it took half a month to get there, but only a moment to come back!”
Between the two.
It was like the difference between riding a small electric scooter and flying on a plane, which was why he shamelessly wanted to take advantage of the Great Immortal’s convenience.
Afterwards.
His figure flashed and disappeared at the foot of the mountain, and by the time he reappeared, he had already arrived next to Child Jin Ling and Yin Ling Tongzi.
At this moment.
The two child-like beings leaned weakly against the bed, while two squirrels ate wild fruits they didn’t know where they had picked from.
Seeing Xuanqing’s figure, the two of them couldn’t help but cheer up.
“Junior Xuanqing, have you gotten the Ginseng Fruit?” Child Jin Ling asked impatiently.
“Got it, got it!”
Xuanqing cupped his hand, then took out four Ginseng Fruits from his bosom and evenly distributed them to the two child-like beings.
Gulp-
The two child-like beings swallowed their saliva, exchanged glances, and then couldn’t wait to start munching on the Ginseng Fruits.
“Mmm… Delicious.”
“Refreshing!”
After they had eaten and drank their fill, it was time for them to work.
On the peak of Black Wind Mountain.
Xuanqing sat cross-legged on the cushion.
With a thought in his heart.
He took out the last Chaos Pill from his backpack and swallowed it with a tilt of his head.
The moment the elixir fell to the bottom of his abdomen, the fierce and domineering Chaos energy exploded and rampaged throughout his body.
In fact.
With his already condensed Essence Flower body, even without the Pestle for Grinding Medicine, he could forcefully resist the power of the Chaos Pill, but it would be very troublesome, and there was no need to do so.
“Junior Brother, I’m here!”
Yin Ling Tongzi offered the Pestle for Grinding Medicine. Having eaten two Ginseng Fruits, it was as if he had taken a great tonic, his complexion was rosy, and his whole person’s energy was uplifted.
Clang-
One strike followed another, and in no time at all, the raging Chaos energy in Xuanqing’s body was suppressed.
Seeing this.
With practiced ease.
He followed the previous method, tearing off a small piece from the Chaos energy, and then controlled the Qi Flower and Essence Flower, using these two extreme powers to refine it.
Several hours later.
Accompanied by the last trace of Chaos energy being refined.
Humming-
There was a strange fluctuation coming from the back of his physical body, as if something was about to break out.
The next moment.
Crack… Crack…
The sound of breaking out of a shell came from his back, and numerous fine ‘tentacle’ roots grew out from inside.
“This is…?”
Xuanqing’s pupils suddenly contracted.
Just when he thought there was a problem, information about these ‘tentacles’ appeared in his mind.
Chaos Body!
That’s right.
These tentacles were the characteristics of the Chaos Body, and their purpose was to penetrate through the Primordial, link to the Endless Void, and continuously absorb Chaotic Qi from it to nourish the Physical Body.
It was like a blessing in disguise.
With a single thought from Xuanqing, the tentacles on his back wriggled, connecting to an empty space.
Then, like a straw stuck into a cup of water, an endless stream of Chaotic Qi was transmitted into his body through the tentacles as a medium.
At the same time.
A game prompt rang in his mind.
