Chapter 114: Successful Breakthrough…
An Lin felt as if his jade temple was riling with excitement as the energy in the beast core began its conversion.
The swirl of vital energy in the air was still expanding as vast amounts of vital energy began to flow toward An Lin’s body.
Boom!
He felt as if every single cell in his body were panting with joy as a limitless amount of vital energy cleansed his body. Of course, most of it had entered his jade temple, creating a sea of vital energy.
Having witnessed the insane amount of vital energy flowing into his body, it didn’t take a genius to figure out that he was making a breakthrough.
Right at this moment, Xiao Hong suddenly had a thought and yelled out to Xu Xiaolan. “Big Sister Xiaolan, place me near master.”
Xu Xiaolan hesitated momentarily, but still placed Xiao Hong beside An Lin as requested.
Through their contractual connection as master and spirit pet, the master was able to provide energy essence to their spirit pet.
At this moment, Xiao Hong felt as if a mysterious connection had been established between the two.
This connection made her instinctively choose to get closer to An Lin.
Within An Lin’s jade temple, the energy in the beast core seemed to go through some sort of qualitative change as it began to relentlessly merge with the incoming flow of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Was he going to form a spirit root?
An Lin’s heart trembled slightly in apprehension as he began to focus on absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
The spirit root was the dao foundation which materialized in a cultivator’s jade temple. Upon successful materialization of the spirit root, all skills possessed by the cultivator would receive a substantial boost.
First and foremost was the utilization of vital energy. Normally, when using immortal spells, vital energy would be circulated through the meridians of the body before being released.
But with a spirit root, vital energy would flow around the spirit root in one loop, where it would go through a process of purification and fortification, as well as allowing the user to establish finer control over their vital energy through the use of the spirit root.
To put it more simply, cultivators with a spirit root would be able to release immortal spells of greater power with more precision and control
At the same time, the sea of vital energy in the jade temple would be able to greatly increase the capacity of vital energy within a cultivator’s body, thereby allowing them to remain in combat for a longer period of time.
During the breakthrough process, the cultivator’s body would also be completely cleansed and strengthened by vital energy, thereby greatly enhancing the durability of the cultivator’s body.
A series of bangs and cracks had already begun to sound from An Lin’s body as his musculoskeletal structure, as well as all parts of his body, began to initiate a transformation.
A ray of brilliant light began to emanate from his jade temple as the energy within began its metamorphosis!
The ball of energy began to slowly condense as a vast aura was gradually emitted from the jade temple.
Finally, a shimmering gold bead materialized, floating in the center of his jade temple.
Eh? A bead?
Boom!
An Lin’s aura underwent a final transformation, as the powerful aura belonging to a cultivator of the Spirit Nurturing Stage began to emanate from his body.
“Ah…!”
A seductive yell suddenly sounded.
An Lin had just made a breakthrough and had not yet come to his senses, but he was suddenly tackled by a soft, warm figure.
A seductive bodily aroma floated into his nostrils, causing his heart to flutter slightly.
His eyes blinked open to find a young woman with an exquisite figure and skin as white as snow sprawling across his lap.
You’re reading on Thanks!
Her eyes were extremely seductive and her vibrant red lips were slightly agape, a fragrant scent emanating from within.
Most importantly… she was completely naked!
“Master…”
The young woman breathed lightly, her eyes like clear rippling water.
Holy f*ck! Could you be any more stimulating!?
A flash of scorching heat ran through An Lin’s body and an enraged yell sounded before he had a chance to say anything.
“An Lin! Hurry up and close your damn eyes!”
Xu Xiaolan’s angry yell was like a clap of thunder, startling An Lin into opening his eyes even wider…
And then…
Bam!
He received a heavy blow to the back of his head before completely blacking out.
The instant before he blacked out, he was still yelling in indignant rage.
“What the f*ck, aren’t you supposed to be covering up my eyes if you want me to close my eyes? What the hell’s the point of knocking me out!?”
It was Xiao Chou’s silver staff that had knocked him out.
But the person holding the club was Xu Xiaolan, who was glowering at An Lin with rage.
The extremely seductive young woman who was also completely nude was Xiao Hong, who’d suddenly transformed into human form.
Xiao Hong blinked her pretty eyes, unable to comprehend why Xu Xiaolan knocked An Lin out.
Xu Xiaolan did not offer an explanation, instead retrieving a set of clothes from her storage ring and tossing them to Xiao Hong. “Hurry up and put this on!”
Xuanyuan Cheng had already turned in the other direction and rested his gaze elsewhere.
A slight blush also appeared on Su Qianyun’s face, clearly a little unsure of how to handle herself.
As for Xiao Chou, there was no reaction at all, akin to how a human would react upon witnessing a naked female monkey.
Xiao Hong put on the clothes as instructed, but it had to be said, even with the clothes on, she was still extremely seductive.
Her features were exquisite to the extent that it spelled disaster for all men. Her figure was explosively sexy, coupled with a natural air of seduction about her. All of it made her worthy of the title of Little Sexy Minx.
Xuanyuan Cheng turned around to face Xiao Hong and even he was momentarily dazed, despite all the beautiful women he’d seen before.
Even a young woman like Su Qianyun was blushing heavily, feeling as if she was unable to shift her gaze away.
“Xiao Hong, have you already materialized a spirit core?” Xu Xiaolan asked curiously after regaining her composure.
“Yes, the instant master broke through, I also successfully materialized a spirit core!
“It was such a wonderful feeling, as if my heart and body were both interconnected with master’s.”
An alluring smile appeared on Xiao Hong’s face, unintentionally unleashing a barrage of seduction.
Xuanyuan Cheng was unable to endure anymore and turned away again.
Xu Xiaolan also blushed slightly. She felt as if Xiao Hong’s seductive abilities functioned indiscriminately, regardless of whether the onlooker was male or female. “Xiao Hong, I feel like you’re still cuter in your flower form.”
Xiao Hong nodded in agreement. “Haha, Big Sister Xiaolan thinks so as well?
“I feel like this human form requires a lot of vital energy to maintain.
“But the flower form doesn’t really require much vital energy to maintain, and I photosynthesize on top of that. Most importantly, I’m also most accustomed to that form.”
Xiao Hong slowly reverted back into a little red flower as she spoke.
The only difference was, she was able to move around freely using her little feet, which were formed from her roots!
Everyone let out a collective sigh of relief upon seeing Xiao Hong revert back to her flower form.
“Xiao Chou, carry An Lin back with us, it’s cold on the ground…” Xu Xiaolan yawned.
“It’s getting late, I’ll take my leave now as well.” Xuanyuan Cheng said to everyone.
Both Xu Xiaolan and Su Qianyun also returned to their own rooms.
Xiao Chou picked up An Lin and began to make his way toward An Lin’s room with Xiao Hong in tow.
…
The next morning, the light of a new sun shone over the earth.
Xiao Hong sat happily on the window ledge, spreading her petals and leaves wide open, photosynthesizing without a care in the world.
An Lin opened his blurry eyes to find that it was already the morning of the next day.
“Sigh, Xu Xiaolan really didn’t know how to hold back,” he complained whilst massaging his head.
Upon hearing An Lin’s words, Xiao Hong immediately turned around from her photosynthesis. “Ah! Master, you’re finally awake!”
She leaped into An Lin’s lap, shaking her dainty red head from side to side.
An Lin was slightly taken aback upon seeing Xiao Hong’s ability to move freely, before suddenly recollecting the events of the previous night. “The young woman that suddenly appeared last night, was that you?”
“That was indeed me, it’s all thanks to master. Xiao Hong has already successfully materialized a spirit core, does master want to see Xiao Hong transformed into her human form?” Xiao Hong boasted proudly.
An Lin immediately thought back to the events of last night at the mention of transformation, a blush appearing on his face.
He was just about to say ‘sure, go ahead’, but the recollection of that strike to the back of his head immediately changed his mind. “No need! Xiao Hong is cuter in flower form.”
“Yeah, Xiao Hong feels that’s the case as well!” Xiao Hong laughed daintily.
For Xiao Hong to be able to successfully materialize a spirit core, An Lin was quite happy.
Upon recollection that he’d also broken through to the Spirit Nurturing Stage last night, he was even more ecstatic. He immediately used his divine sense to assess the situation in his jade temple.
Hehe, let’s see what my spirit root looks like.
And after that…
An Lin was completely stupefied.
Because he saw a shiny gold bead floating in the center of his jade temple…
“Holy f*ck!”
What the f*ck is this bead!
Sh*t!
Where the f*ck is my spirit root!?
