Chapter 300: The core attained primordial origin
The Five-Qi Vine seemed to deliberate for a long time, but in truth, only an instant passed.
"Na."
Looking at Chen Beiwu, the Five-Qi Vine's gaze sharpened. Its vine body suddenly swelled, and the little flower atop it burst with dazzling five-colored divine light.
"Woof."
Iron Egg crouched low, his fur standing on end, his eyes fixed on the Five-Qi Vine.
While Chen Beiwu was in seclusion attempting Golden Core, he would never allow any beast to interfere.
"It's all right, Iron Egg."
Chen Beiwu opened his eyes and soothed Iron Egg, who looked as though he faced a formidable enemy.
Then he turned his gaze toward the Five-Qi Vine and lifted the cave abode's restrictions, opening a path for it.
Several years together had been enough for Chen Beiwu to understand the Five-Qi Vine's nature.
Although the Five-Qi Vine liked petty pilfering, its nature was not bad. Its temperament was rather like a child who did not understand right and wrong, good and evil. It was stubborn, acted solely according to its own wishes, and was somewhat withdrawn.
In Chen Beiwu's view, a heavenly gang mysterious beast with this temperament was actually easy to get along with and could readily become a close friend.
For all the Five-Qi Vine's constant talk of freedom, it actually feared loneliness more than anyone. When it met a close friend it liked, it could get carried away and offer a degree of trust ordinary people found hard to understand.
To put it more kindly, the Five-Qi Vine possessed the heart of an innocent child and acted entirely according to its likes and dislikes.
For instance, right now, the Five-Qi Vine could clearly have watched coldly from the sidelines without getting involved in Chen Beiwu's Core Formation.
