Eating Spirit Fruits, Chatting About Gossip, New Crops

After some explanation, Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi finally understood why the Qingqiu Fox Ancestor was with Wu Chu why they seemed to have such a close relationship.

They were simply surprised that the Mountain Recluse Who Never Leaves had once needed their help to create even his cultivation method would now have so many friends at the Daluo Realm.

Leaving aside Nuwa and Fuxi, there Taiyi Di Jun, Changxi, and now Houtu and Qingqiu Li, making seven as far as they know.

If you include their own, that makes nine.

His cultivation level has also progressed from an almost imperceptible state to the Golden Immortal Realm, a speed that far exceeded their original expectations.

Qingqiu Li understood why the two had suddenly come here. After figuring it out, she also had some ideas about earning Merit by repairing the earth's veins.

No one ever thinks they have too much Merit. She didn't know how to earn it before, but now she finds that earning Merit isn't as difficult as she imagined.

Wu Chu said to Qingqiu Li, "These are ginseng fruits given to us by the two older brothers. Eating one can increase one's cultivation by 47,000 years. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to have Xiaoyu call you out of seclusion."

Qingqiu Li smiled and said, "A Chu, you're so thoughtful!"

She paused, then transmitted her voice again, "That set of Spirit Treasure is only missing the helmet and boots to be finished. The boots were almost done, but because of Xiao Yu's call, one boot has to be remade. If you don't mind the cost of materials, I naturally don't care."

"..."

Wu Chu coughed lightly and replied in private, "It's alright, there's still plenty of hide from that Two-Headed Giant Alligator! Wasting a little won't hurt."

Qingqiu Li nodded and replied, "There are quite a few, but to enhance their defensive properties, I've condensed them. I estimate that about half will be used to refine one set..."

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu pondered for a moment and realized that this woman was indeed quite wasteful. But considering that she was doing this entirely for his sake, Wu Chu could only respond with a smile.

"It's alright, as long as the Spirit Treasure is of a high enough grade. Never mind that now, let's eat some fruit first!" He said as he divided the Ginseng Fruit in the fruit plate in front of him.

He got one, Houtu one, Qingqiu Li got one, and he had Little Moon Spirit divide the remaining three, with her and the Little Fox sharing one. The remaining two were cut into several pieces so that Hua Feier and the other Little Flower Fairies could also have a taste. Of course, ordinary Little Flower Fairies didn't have this opportunity, since there was so little food.

At the same time, two Purple Jade Spirit-Pattern Apple were placed in front of Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi.

Wu Chu picked up the Ginseng Fruit and took a bite. It was crisp and sweet, with juice overflowing and fragrance filling the air. An indescribable Dao Resonance instantly traveled from his taste buds to his Consciousness Sea.

Wu Chu instantly understood that this was the Dao Resonance, the Water Origin and the Wood Origin.

After enjoying the Dao Resonance for a while, Wu Chu couldn't help but sigh and began to praise this thing to Zhen Yuanzi, saying that it truly lived up to its reputation as a fruit born from Chaos Spiritual Root!

In comparison, his Purple Jade Spirit-Pattern Apple is indeed much inferior.

Although they are now considered top-grade Innate Spirit Root, the Ginseng Fruit is a divine object that has existed since the Primordial Chaos era, belonging to the top tier of top-grade Spirit Root.

As for the Purple Jade Spirit Crabapple, it was initially only Innate spirit. Although its grade may have been downgraded due to injury, it was probably originally only a high-grade spirit at best.

Although it has now been upgraded to the top-grade level, within that category it's probably only in the low to mid-range. How can it compare to the top-grade Ginseng Fruit?

Zhen Yuanzi was actually quite pleased with the praise, but he kept saying "You flatter me" and then went on to praise the Purple Jade Spirit Crabapple in return, which looked a bit like mutual flattery.

After enjoying the spiritual fruits and exchanging compliments, Hong Yun inquired about some matters concerning the 'Golden Core Dao' from Wu Chu.

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu chuckled and said, "Speaking of which, I must thank you two brothers for the cultivation method you tailored for me. Based on this method, I had Houtu and Qingqiu create a cultivation method specifically for them, which can ignore those with shallow foundations..."

Speaking of which, on his Purple Jade Mountain, the Little Flower Fairy Clan with weak foundations, as well as the Howling Moon Sky Wolf Clan with Doggy A Qiu and the others, the Red Fish in the lake, the Rainbow Snail in the backyard... are all currently cultivating this Golden Core Elixir method.

"Please take a look, gentlemen."

As Wu Chu spoke, he handed the two of them a jade slip containing the method's information.

After observing the cultivation method for a while, Hong Yun exclaimed in admiration, "Fellow Daoist, your idea is truly ingenious! Condensing one's cultivation into a Golden Core —this certainly bypasses the hurdle of a shallow foundation. And once you reach the Heavenly Immortal Realm, the depth of your foundation becomes no longer important..."

No wonder Heavenly Dao bestowed Merit as a reward; this alone solved the cultivation path for all ordinary beings! This one method alone is enough to make him a revered ancestor in the future.

Wu Chu smiled and said, "The cultivation methods that you two brothers created for those Little Flower Fairies can also allow them to take human Transformation Form regardless of their foundation. Coupled with this Golden Core Cultivation Method, it can be said to be the complete cultivation method for the ordinary beings in Purple Jade Mountain today."

Hong Yun laughed and said, "This Golden Core Cultivation Method doesn't require any additional practice. If some beings are unwilling to first Transformation Form, they can directly cultivate this Golden Core Cultivation Method. If you had this method to protect your mountain, you could easily start your own sect and take on disciples."

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu was momentarily stunned. He recalled how the great demons of later generations never Transformation Form before cultivating their Demon Core. Was it because they switched to cultivating the Golden Core Dao?

Coming to his senses, Wu Chu waved his hand and laughed, "You two are joking. With my current cultivation level, how dare I talk about taking on disciples? Wouldn't that be misleading others? Besides, everyone is trying to avoid those Three Clans right now, so how could I dare to open a mountain at this time?"

When the topic of these Three Clans came up, everyone started Eight Trigrams again. In fact, Wu Chu was mainly Eight Trigrams with Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi, since the two of them traveled around all year round and knew more than him. Moreover, Hong Yun had the supernatural ability to use the Ten Thousand-Mile Floating Clouds for his eyes and ears.

When it comes to the ability to gather Eight Trigrams, Hong Yun is the best among them all.

We drank, ate meat, listened to music, chatted about our past, and even talked about Primordial World Eight Trigrams...

They drank until nightfall, and then Little Moon Spirit brought out the meat of the Two-Headed Giant Alligator that she had hidden away, which made Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi turn their heads in surprise.

Wu Chu could only say that these were ingredients brought by Houtu's brothers.

Then Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi learned that this Houtu actually had eleven brothers whose cultivation levels were comparable to hers.

With so many powerful figures, the Witch Clan is a force to be reckoned with!

They had previously thought that Wu Chu only had nine friends at the Daluo Realm, but now, upon counting, wow, the number had actually reached twenty.

After a joyful night, the next morning, Hong Yun took out a Cosmos Storage Bag and tossed it to Wu Chu, saying, "These are some spiritual plants that my brother Zhen Yuanzi and I encountered in the Western Land. They look somewhat like crops. Take a look."

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu's eyes lit up.
