Chapter 407: Breaking Out of the Cocoon

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Domain space.

The two cocoons that were originally floating in midair emitted a very faint sound and slowly began to crack.

Li Yuanqing’s figure flashed and appeared in front of the cocoon, silently watching the two of them.

According to Zhao Baoyun, after consuming the medicine, they would be able to complete the transformation in half an hour.

However, the medicinal power of his pills was clearly not enough. Fortunately, Li Yuanqing was prepared and replenished a lot of energy before the two of them could successfully advance.

The difference between the Immortal World and the lower realm was that the purity of the power was much stronger.

In the eyes of the Immortal World, it was ordinary spiritual energy. However, if it was in the body of a person from the lower realm, it would become a very strong poison that could easily shatter their meridians.

This was also the reason why people who ascended from the Lower Realm had to experience a process of purifying their power and allowing their bodies to slowly undergo a transformation.

Two graceful figures appeared from the cocoon. The outer cocoon also turned into two pieces of smoke and was absorbed into their bodies.

Hu Jiujiu slowly opened her eyes and looked at the familiar domain space in front of her. Her consciousness gradually became clear.

“Master?”

Hu Jiujiu looked at Yuanqing in a daze. It was like a dream. She felt like she had experienced it for a very long time. She did not know how long it had been.

Li Yuanqing took out a top-grade spirit stone and placed it in Hu Jiujiu’s hand. A very pure energy followed Hu Jiujiu’s meridians and fused into her body strand by strand. Under the warmth of this power, the meridians that were slightly torn just now slowly calmed down.

Hu Jiujiu slowly closed her eyes and slowly absorbed the power in the spirit stone.

The power of body tempering was really not to be underestimated.

Hu Jiujiu had been specially trained by Li Yuanqing before she entered. She was at the fifth-grade Formation Arrangement Realm.

After consuming this pill, coupled with Li Yuanqing’s medicinal effect, her cultivation level increased by two levels, directly reaching the seventh-grade Formation Arrangement Realm.

Li Yuanqing had poured two big bowls of water into the two little fellows, Little Dot and Spirit Child, yesterday.

They slept until now. Their bodies were hot, and their bodies seemed to have become bottomless pits. The power outside kept pouring into their bodies.

This situation lasted for a long time before it calmed down a little. The two of them were about to touch the threshold of the Formation Arrangement Realm.

What was the use of this so-called Divine Origin Water? Judging from the current situation, it seemed to have a stable growth effect on plants.

Spirit Child’s true form was the Blood Vine, so it was normal for him to be catalyzed.

However, Little Dot was a Dharma treasure, so he could actually benefit from it. This made Li Yuanqing very puzzled.

The ball of smoke beside Little Man was still incomplete. There was always a wisp of smoke lingering around her body, and her brows were furrowed. The power in her body was not flowing smoothly.

In the beginning, Li Yuanqing did not think too much about it. However, this power was still entangled in a certain part of her body. As time passed, Little Man’s breathing became even more hurried.

Seeing that something was wrong, Li Yuanqing took out drops of water from the water bottle and placed them in the alchemy furnace below. He diluted it with the juice of the spiritual herbs and stimulated a misty fog to wrap around Little Man.

The light green fog slowly seeped into Little Man’s body through her pores. A very unreasonable power gathered in her body.

That power was very domineering. After entering Little Man’s meridians, it followed a specific route and firmly rushed forward, directly clearing the blocked meridians in Little Man’s body.

Little Man’s frown gradually relaxed, and her cultivation slowly began to rise.

In the past, Little Man was only at the eighth-grade Spirit Transformation Realm. Later on, Li Yuanqing used some methods to help Little Man advance to the Formation Arrangement Realm. This was not all. He even forcefully raised Little Man’s cultivation by three grades and brought her cultivation to the third-grade Formation Arrangement Realm.

This also caused Little Man’s cultivation foundation to be very unstable.

Even with Li Yuanqing’s multiple defenses, Little Man almost did not survive. Fortunately, she was saved by the Divine Origin Water.

After a long time, Little Man finally opened her eyes. Although she was still very weak, her complexion was much better than when she first came out.

“Master!” Little Man said weakly and timidly. “I felt like I was dead just now. I felt like the meridians in my body were about to be torn apart. Later on, something suddenly entered my body and saved me.”

Li Yuanqing clicked his tongue in wonder. He looked at the big bottle in his hand that was filled with such pure Divine Origin Water. If the medicinal effect was so great, how many spirit stones would he earn from these hundred bottles of Divine Origin Water?

“How do you feel now?”

“I feel that although the strength in my body is still a little weak, it has increased greatly compared to before. Master, what method did you use just now?”

Little Man looked at the bottle in Li Yuanqing’s hand with a slightly aggrieved and afraid expression, but she could not help but lick her lips.

“This Divine Origin Water seems to be very helpful to plant-type demon beasts. Do you think your body changed after you consumed it?”

Little Man thought in a daze. She stretched out an arm and suddenly transformed into a thick vine.

These vines were very strong. In a short while, the thickest part had already swelled to thirty feet thick.

“I feel that my body seems to have become much stronger than before. Moreover, the speed of absorption is much faster than before. It’s as if all the spiritual orifices in my body have been opened.”

Li Yuanqing saw that the effect of this drop of water was actually so good. He took out another drop from it and mixed it with a bowl of herbal juice for Little Man to eat.

After Little Man drank the potion, she gently wiped the juice from the corner of her mouth and slowly closed her eyes. A blush rushed up in a moment. It first landed on Little Man’s face, then the redness gradually spread, covering her entire body with a layer of red.

In a short while, Little Man’s entire body became red, and her eyes became more and more blurry. Her body could no longer sit still.

“Mas… ter…”

Little Man’s voice became weaker and weaker. In the end, she could not hold on anymore. She lay on the ground and fell asleep.

This situation was exactly the same as the two little fellows yesterday. Li Yuanqing had thought that they would be able to absorb the medicinal effect so smoothly, but he did not expect that it would backfire. Even Little Man could not withstand such a powerful medicinal effect.

However, at least he knew that Little Man would have a very good effect after consuming this Divine Origin Water. That was enough.

At this moment, a signal suddenly came from outside.

Li Yuanqing’s figure flashed and appeared in the medicinal field.

At the entrance of the valley, Zhao Baoyun appeared with a tattered old man.

“Martial Uncle Wang, aren’t you joking? This Fire Spirit Fruit can only grow so big. Our sect has already tried our best to nurture it. So many apothecaries have worked hard for so many years, but I’ve never heard of anyone who can raise the Fire Spirit Fruit to the size of a person.”

Zhao Baoyun looked at the old man with a frown. Although he had made some very unreasonable requests, he could not do anything to him. This old man had a deep relationship with the sect.

The old man turned around and glared at Zhao Baoyun. “Would I lie to you?”

Zhao Baoyun waved his hand repeatedly and said, “Martial Uncle Wang, that’s not what I meant! What I mean is, is it possible that those are fake herbs? The Fire Spirit Fruit can only grow this big. It’s definitely impossible for it to be that big.”

Li Yuanqing’s expression immediately froze when he saw the old man.

This old fellow was none other than the alchemist, Wang Lan, who had taken his two huge fire spirit fruits at the auction yesterday.

Wang Lan was someone that everyone in the black market respected. Why was he here?

Could it be that this old fellow had already discovered his identity or followed the smell?

Li Yuanqing could not figure it out. However, from the looks of it, things might not be as bad as he thought.

“Senior Brother Zhao!”

Li Yuanqing pretended to be relaxed and walked up to Zhao Baoyun.

Zhao Baoyun waved his hand and called Li Yuanqing over.

“Martial Uncle Wang, look, he’s new. He’s the guard of this medicinal garden. If you want to do anything, just tell him.”

When Wang Lan saw Li Yuanqing, his eyes widened. He stared at Li Yuanqing from head to toe several times.

Li Yuanqing cursed in his heart, but he did not show it on his face.

Zhao Baoyun looked at Wang Lan strangely and asked, “Martial Uncle, have you seen Junior Brother Li?”

After pausing for a moment, the old man returned to his casual appearance. He picked up the huge gourd and took a gulp. “How would I know your disciple?”

Zhao Baoyun scratched his head awkwardly. “I think so too. Martial Uncle, if you have anything, feel free to tell me. Although Little Junior Brother has just arrived, he’s still very serious. If you have anything, just call him. I still have something to do.”

Wang Lan waved his hand indifferently and said to him, “If you want to get lost, get lost early. Don’t dawdle with me.”

“Martial Uncle, what are you saying?” Zhao Baoyun said awkwardly, “I indeed have some important matters to attend to. I really can’t accompany Martial Uncle to investigate the Fire Spirit Fruit.”

“Alright, I don’t mean to blame you. You can leave if you want. I want to stay here for the next few days. I wonder if it’s convenient?”

Li Yuanqing’s face froze. He wanted to speak up and stop him, but he clearly had no right to stop him.

“Martial Uncle, look at what you’re saying. You’re old friends with the sect. You can stay here for as long as you want. I’ll go back and tell Master. No one will disturb you later.”

Li Yuanqing’s face twitched slightly. Why was this old man not planning to leave? From what he said, could it be that he was going to stay here for ten days to half a month?

“It won’t take that long. I’m not someone who has nothing to do all day. Three to five days is enough.”

“Alright, that’s settled.”

After Zhao Baoyun finished speaking, he carefully pulled Li Yuanqing to the side and reminded him, “Junior Brother, this old senior is an important guest of the sect. Greet him well. No matter what request he has, try your best to satisfy him, understand?”

Li Yuanqing asked curiously, “Is this old sir an elder of the sect?”

“It’s not that, Martial Uncle Wang is a rogue cultivator. He often walks around the sect because he has some interactions with the sect. Most importantly, Martial Uncle Wang is an alchemist of the Alchemy Pavilion, so we must respect him and not neglect him.”

“Alchemy Pavilion?”

Zhao Baoyun knew that Li Yuanqing might not have heard of the Alchemy Pavilion when he saw Li Yuanqing’s confused expression. It made sense since this kid had always been in the lower realm.

“Isn’t your master an alchemist? Didn’t your master ever mention the Alchemy Pavilion to you?”

“Senior Brother, I haven’t been with Master for long, so there are many things that Master hasn’t told me yet.”

“Forget it, it’s better for you to know less about these things now. It has nothing to do with you. You just need to serve this old senior well. Then everything will be fine. Perhaps your offerings next month can be reduced.”

Li Yuanqing’s eyes lit up when he heard this. If there were fewer offerings, wouldn’t he have more room to operate?

Zhao Baoyun left in a hurry after giving a few simple instructions. Although he said that he should respect Wang Lan enough, it was impossible to tell that he really liked this sloppy old man.

Li Yuanqing looked at the old man who was squatting in the field and staring blankly at the Fire Spirit Fruit. For a moment, he did not know what to do. He did not know if this old man had already discovered his secret. When this old man came in just now, his expression was clearly not right.

Just as Li Yuanqing was thinking, Wang Lan suddenly stretched out a hand and waved at him without looking back.

Although Li Yuanqing had a grudge, he still walked over obediently and stood behind Wang Lan.

The place where this old man was squatting was none other than where Li Yuanqing had moved the Fire Spirit Fruit.

Those fire spirit fruits had already grown very quickly and would soon fill this empty space. However, Wang Lan still caught them.

“Senior, what can I do for you?”

Li Yuanqing looked at Wang Lan’s back carefully.

Wang Lan pointed at the empty place and asked, “Little guy, do you know how this place was empty?”

Li Yuanqing coughed lightly and replied, “Senior, this is because I neglected my duties and accidentally poured too much spiritual liquid into it, causing the Fire Spirit Fruit to drown. Senior Brother has already punished me.”

“Too much spiritual liquid?”

The old man rubbed his chin and pondered. At this moment, he looked like a normal person.
