Luo Qian left with the processed seed. Master Basmo leaned back in his chair, legs propped up and eyes closed. He pushed with his feet, rocking the chair, and murmured, "Only a species with vitality as terrifyingly strong as Treehouse's could withstand its power. I never thought that boy would actually find a seed. This is the first time it's appeared in the body of a lower life-form. I wonder what will happen. Interesting, interesting..."
The master seemed delighted. At his level, nothing short of creating a "miracle" could pique the old man's interest.
As for what the master meant by "it," no one but the master himself knew.
If Nangong Jue and Die Shang became "one," their offspring would be a "bug-beast" unlike anything seen before or since. Good grief, the mere thought struck Luo Qian as wickedly amusing—and thrilling! So he decided to fan the flames and play a pivotal role in this historic event. Without hesitation, he thumped his chest and promised to do everything he could to help Nangong Jue win the beautiful Butterfly Spirit's heart.
With Luo Qian's promise in hand, Nangong Jue headed excitedly to Wei Shandong's planet. Its Saint Stone Mine was somewhat poorer, holding only twenty thousand Superior Saint Stones. Mid-grade and low-grade stones contained too little Saint Origin Force and were inconvenient to carry, so Nangong Jue brought back only the Superior Saint Stones.
The two mines held eighty thousand Superior Saint Stones in all. Bai Zisheng's palace had been razed to the ground, and sixty thousand Superior Saint Stones had been stacked into a square platform as tall as a person. Luo Qian was about to place the seed on top when a thought struck him: I still have Saint Soul Stones! They held far more Saint Origin Force
