Chapter 139: Crisis in the Tranquil Mystic Realm (4)
Chapter 139: Crisis in the Tranquil Mystic Realm (4)
Li Qian gazed at the enormous, towering mutated ancient Golden Banyan Tree, deep in thought for a moment before speaking up, "Since this ancient Golden Banyan Tree could complete its mutation, the other one, the Second Ancestor, should also have a chance, right?"
He knew that the Mu family must be well aware of this, and had probably even studied it, but it seemed futile for the current situation.
However, at this moment, Li Qian could only think of this, and even if it was just a form of comfort, he had to say it.
Moreover, it could at least provide another direction for research, finding a breakthrough in the Second Ancestor's mutation, which would be much simpler than enhancing the Pine Saint's strength.
So, without further thought, he voiced his opinion, "Once it completes the mutation, it should also be able to advance to the Sage Spirit rank, right?"
Mu Qianqian sighed helplessly upon hearing this, "Initially, the Pine Saint's ability to complete its mutation was a stroke of luck, almost impossible to replicate."
After speaking, she looked up helplessly at the thick canopy above, resembling a majestic canopy.
The Pine Saint remained lush, majestic, and still gave off a sense of sacred dignity.
However, the occasional falling golden leaves revealed a hint of desolation.
Hearing Mu Qianqian's explanation, Li Qian couldn't help but frown, "That's troublesome."
It seemed like a dead end.
Both methods were impassable.
After a moment of silence, he cautiously asked, "If we lose the Tranquil Mystic Realm..."
Understanding Li Qian's concern, Mu Qianqian didn't hide the truth, "If we lose the Tranquil Mystic Realm, our Mu family will undoubtedly decline gradually."
"Not necessarily," Li Qian awkwardly laughed, "Even without the Tranquil Mystic Realm, I believe that as long as your Mu family stays united and works together, you won't fall into decline."
To comfort Mu Qianqian, he could only say something pleasant at this moment.
Unexpectedly, the latter nodded in agreement, "Perhaps you are right, where there is fortune, there is also disaster, and where there is disaster, there is also fortune."
Without pausing, she continued, "Because of the existence of the Tranquil Mystic Realm, our Mu family, over the years, has gradually lost its vigor and leaned towards comfort. Perhaps this crisis, in the long run, is not necessarily a bad thing."
It seemed like she had come to terms with it, but in the end, she couldn't help but sigh, "However, this is still our home."
"Even if I can't help much, but it's worth a try," Li Qian said, "That, the esteemed Pine Saint, how did he complete his mutation?"
The Pine Saint had already fallen into a deep sleep and might not be able to hear, but Mu Qianqian was definitely aware of the details.
"I'll research it, and maybe I'll gain some insights," he chuckled, expressing his genuine thoughts.
Hearing this, Mu Qianqian's eyes held a complex expression as she looked at Li Qian.
Although she didn't think he could help much, she still felt touched by his intentions.
Organizing her thoughts, she spoke, revealing what she knew, "According to the Pine Saint's own description, its mutation might be related to the Light element. Besides the Wood element, it also mastered many Light element skills, such as Purifying Light, Holy Light Guardian, and Blinding Technique."
"How did it comprehend those Light element skills?" Li Qian asked, curious.
"The Pine Saint once absorbed a Sun Essence Gold, which might have something to do with it."
Mu Qianqian spoke, "Sun Essence Gold, the Sun Essence Gold, is an extremely rare item."
Li Qian frowned, unable to help but furrow his brows.
Among the Light Element resources, one that was particularly rare and had a wide range of uses was the Sunstone.
In some extremely energy-rich Sunstone mines, a very small number of Sun Essence Gold might be produced.
Precisely because the Sun Essence Gold possessed this rare and scarce characteristic, and it had a significant effect on Light Element companion beasts, this resource had always been priced accordingly.
Every time there was an auction, the prices would be quite exaggerated.
However, even so, Li Qian didn't think that this resource would be a difficult matter for the Mu family.
As it turned out, his guess was not wrong, because Mu Qianqian's next words confirmed this, "It's rare, but our Mu family once auctioned one and prepared to replicate the process, but unfortunately, it didn't work."
"The Second Ancestor only comprehended the 'Sunlight Absorption' skill and didn't undergo any changes."
"We speculate that it's due to a lack of understanding."
Li Qian frowned and offered a different opinion, "It's also possible that the Pine Saint is more special compared to other Ancient Golden Banyan Trees."
Mu Qianqian nodded, "That's also a possibility."
Even for identical companion beasts, individual differences could exist, and this was the fundamental reason why companion beasts of equal potential ultimately achieved different levels of success.
So, this individual variation was not impossible.
After some thought, he made a request, "In this regard, you should have some research, right? Can I take a look at the materials in this regard?"
Currently, he had too little information and couldn't conduct any research.
Mu Qianqian didn't hesitate and replied directly, "It shouldn't be a problem, but I need to ask my grandfather."
Li Qian nodded, indicating his understanding, "That's natural."
After learning the details, Li Qian didn't stay long, and the two began to slowly walk back.
Li Qian suddenly remembered something, "Oh, right, last time, was the reason the Ancient Deity Sect launched an attack on the Yunwu Mountain Scenic Area because..."
"They were targeting the Tranquil Mystic Realm." Mu Qianqian's eyes suddenly turned sharp, "The Tranquil Mystic Realm is in trouble, and this news has probably spread. Now, the energy inside the Mystic Realm is extremely fragile, and we must carefully maintain the balance. If a battle of a certain intensity occurs, it's likely to cause the Mystic Realm to collapse directly."
"So that's how it is." Li Qian understood.
Everything matched up, and he finally understood the reason why that Ancient Deity Sect follower had been so scheming.
After taking a stroll, Li Qian bid farewell to Mu Qianqian, Mu Tianhua, and the little boy Mu Zhuoran, leaving the Tranquil Mystic Realm.
Upon returning to the scenic area, Mu Qianqian sent someone to drive a car and directly took Li Qian to the Yunlan City airport.
When Mu Qianqian returned to the Tranquil Mystic Realm, she was puzzled, "There's so much data in other aspects, why did you give it all to him..."
Mu Tianhua stroked his beard, "This young man is a Hidden Dragon. When a dragon soars in the abyss, it will eventually take flight. Making friends with him now will be beneficial and not harmful to our Mu family. Moreover, if we can't fully comprehend these materials, forcefully possessing them won't bring much value."
"Copying it for him won't cause us any loss."
Mu Qianqian seemed deep in thought, glanced in a certain direction, and nodded, "I understand."
