Chapter 688: No Minors Allowed
Chapter 688: No Minors Allowed
With a plan in mind, Lu Chen instructed the grass puppet to keep a close eye on the spirit fields before retiring to a quiet room with the dark golden skeleton fragment.
He adjusted his condition to its peak and summoned a wisp of platinum flame, which slowly emerged from his body to engulf the Liuli Red Phoenix Bone.
After several days of subjecting the bone to his spiritual sense and the purifying power of the Pure Yang True Fire, the Liuli Red Phoenix Bone softened and melted into a pool of dark golden liquid that gradually seeped into Lu Chen's body.
Through inner vision, he witnessed the silent infusion of the dark golden liquid into his bones, causing countless specks of dark golden light to appear on his skeleton.
The specks flickered softly before being absorbed into the depths of his bones.
As more and more of the dark golden specks merged with his body, Lu Chen felt a scorching heat welling up within him. He couldn't help but take a deep breath, exhaling a wave of crimson heat.
"I've managed to integrate the Liuli Red Phoenix Bone into my skeletal structure, but it will take a long time to fully assimilate it," he mused.
Lu Chen rose and made his way to the spirit fields.
Over the next two months, he focused on assimilating the bone while still tending to his tasks of cultivating spirit herbs and nurturing spirit beasts.
One day, after completing the integration, Lu Chen sensed the strengthening and slight reddening of his bones. With a thought, the Pure Yang True Fire surged forth from his fingertips, accompanied by platinum flames that danced and morphed into various shapes. Even though it was an inanimate fire, it now seemed to possess a hint of sentience.
This was undoubtedly one of the effects of the Liuli Red Phoenix Bone.
After the initial integration, Lu Chen could clearly feel that his control over the Pure Yang True Fire had reached a whole new level. With the acquisition of the Pure Yang True Fire Manual, his years of diligent cultivation, and the boost to his comprehension from consuming the Clear Liuli Tea leaves, he had finally managed to comprehend and manifest the Pure Yang True Fire.
Now, with the enhancement provided by the seventh-grade Liuli Red Phoenix Bone, his innate talent in fire-based techniques and abilities had skyrocketed, allowing him to manipulate the Pure Yang True Fire with increased flexibility and spontaneity.
Back when he was still at the Qi Refining stage, he had obtained a manual called the Flame Manipulation Technique from the ball of light, which further refined his flame control.
However, his previous control over flames only scratched the surface of shape and form, whereas now he was beginning to grasp the underlying intent.
All these improvements could be attributed to the extraordinary properties of the seventh-grade Liuli Red Phoenix Bone.
After integrating this treasure into his body, Lu Chen returned to his spirit fields and resumed his simple life as a spirit herbologist, tirelessly cultivating each herb regardless of its grade.
In the fields, the six tiny Treants hadn't changed much in size, but they no longer exuded the same youthful immaturity as when they had first appeared.
One of the Treants quietly perched itself on the grass puppet.
The grass puppet, crafted from unique vegetation and imbued with countless Spirit Absorbing Grass Beads, emanated a dense woody aura that was highly attractive to the Treants.
However, what the little sprite didn't understand was why this oddly-shaped puppet spent all its time wandering aimlessly in the spirit fields, following the same route over and over again. It found the puppet's monotony boring.
"That other weird guy is more fun," it thought.
The grass puppet's silence and mechanical movements did nothing to entertain the naturally playful Treant, so it flapped its delicate cerulean wings and flew over to the Ghost Demon Vine.
Technically speaking, the Ghost Demon Vine was also a type of vegetation-based spirit creature that had evolved from a spirit herb. Nonetheless, it held a strong affinity for the Treant.
The tiny Treant gently landed on the ashen-gray vine, prompting one end of it to sprout a tendril-like branch. After a quick glance, the branch slithered away like a snake, leading the Treant into the netherworld region of the spirit fields.
It then made its way over to the Homicide Crone tree demon, its vines raised high in a provocative manner.
The tension between the two entities was palpable, and they immediately engaged in a fierce battle. Countless dark green branches, like spears, pierced towards the Ghost Demon Vine, but it fearlessly and effortlessly deflected the onslaught.
"Wow!"
The little Treant, watching from a distance, had admiration in its innocent eyes as it witnessed the battle unfold.
In response to this, the Ghost Demon Vine instantly enlarged its vines, easily entangling the branches of the Killer Granny tree demon, rendering it immobile.
The vague facial features on the tree demon's trunk contorted into various ferocious expressions, creating a stark contrast with the angelic little Treant by its side.
As the battle concluded, the Ghost Demon Vine casually withdrew.
The little Treant landed on the vines, its pale green wings wrapping around its tiny body. Its emerald-like arms were folded together, and its eyes shone with reverence and admiration.
Unable to bear the adoring gaze, the Ghost Demon Vine decided to show the little Treant more of the world.
"There's a great place I want to take you to. It has a rich aura that makes all living beings forget their troubles and enjoy bliss. I guarantee you little ones will love it!"
The two plant-based spirit creatures communicated in their unique way.
"Okay, okay!"
The little Treant eagerly nodded, having absolute trust in this fellow "uncle."
The Ghost Demon Vine straightened its vines and swiftly made its way towards the Mystical Peach Forest.
"What a sweet fragrance!"
From a distance, the little Treant could sense the intoxicating aroma wafting from the peach grove in the corner of the cave mansion. It whispered in awe.
Just as they were about to enter the pink miasma, Lu Chen descended from above and grabbed the little Treant.
"Minors are not allowed in."
Ignoring the little Treant's slight struggles, Lu Chen glared at the Ghost Demon Vine and kicked it hard.
"Who told you to bring the Treant to a place like this?"
"You perverted vine! It's one thing if you come here alone to have your fun, but do you intend to corrupt my little Treant as well?"
Lu Chen grew angrier as he thought about the possible consequences of the innocent little Treant entering the Mystical Peach Grove. He gave the Ghost Demon Vine another forceful stomp.
He levitated the little Treant with his spiritual power and placed it on the Clear Liuli Tea Spirit Plant.
Then, he picked up the Ghost Demon Vine.
"Let's go. I'll accompany you inside."
It had been nearly three years since the last harvest of the mystical peaches. A new batch of spirit peaches was about to mature, and with it, a large number of abnormal light orbs as rewards.
Soon, Lu Chen emerged from the pink miasma, his expression unchanged. He paused to cast a Cleansing Chant on himself.
"This peach grove is becoming more and more alluring. With the accumulation of fallen leaves, the miasma is getting denser, and its enchanting abilities are strengthening. Even I, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, almost lost my mental fortitude."
Lu Chen shook his head. During his time in the grove, he had plucked over ten mystical peaches, yielding unconventional treasures such as the fourth-grade enchantment pill, the Misty Desire Dan, pill formulae, and the Extremely Joyful Sutra.
"This is the third time the Mystical Peach Tree has borne fruit, but the number of spirit peaches seems to be lesser than before. It appears that the number of peaches decreases over time. Due to the limitations of the spirit plant's vitality, it's challenging to achieve true unlimited fruiting."
Lu Chen mused to himself.
