Inside the Five Elements Array's Formation Space.
Zhu Yu took a "West Mansion Begonia" God-Given Fruit from a Spider Silk Bag, spread another layer of bear honey on it, and handed it to Hua Ling, who stood beside him with wide eyes, eagerly craning his neck.
"Here, see how it tastes."
"Mm-hmm."
Hua Ling nodded earnestly, carefully accepted the "West Mansion Begonia" God-Given Fruit, and put it into his mouth. At the first bite, juice so sour it pierced straight to his insect heart burst forth, making his mouth water instinctively.
But before he could savor it—
The sweetness of the bear honey swiftly transformed the juice into something sweeter still. Mixed with his saliva, it slipped down into his belly, and the wonderful flavor made Hua Ling sway his head with delight. "Kukuku! Delicious!"
"'West Mansion Begonia' is the best God-Given Fruit I've ever eaten!"
"Oh, right."
Seemingly remembering something, Hua Ling turned and rummaged through the goods on his back shell. Soon, he pulled a Spider Silk Bag and a Stone Bottle from deep within the cargo, turned back, and handed them to Zhu Yu with a laugh. "Kukuku!"
"Giant Peak, hurry and open them! See if you like the gifts!"
Zhu Yu did not spoil his excitement. He opened the Stone Bottle first, and a rich surge of verdant vitality poured out. The bottle was filled to the brim with "life immortal dew"—roughly a hundred portions, each capable of extending one's life by sixty years.
Joy stirred in his heart.
Although his "Divine Gifts" had successively advanced to Mountain Master-Level, they could each secrete only one drop of "life immortal dew" a day. Gathering a full portion required two whole months.
Suppressing his delight, he opened the Spider Silk Bag.
As expected, it contained a spirit seed.
