Red Pine Nuts: Strengthening the Body; a True Spirit Star Falls
The Demon Race and martial arts practitioners suffered heavy losses. Even the leading Fourth Tier Demon Race and martial arts practitioners lost several of their leaders. The remaining Demon Race and martial arts practitioners had no choice but to order a retreat and escape, leaving behind a large number of Demon Beast and demon birds to cover their retreat.
The cultivators who came to their aid, including Kong Wenxuan, as well as the Hua Household Lineage guarding the county town of "Spotted Ferret County Seat" and the servant cultivators of Spotted Ferret County, all launched a pursuit, massacring the Demon Beast and birds that were covering the retreat, and chasing down the fleeing Demon Race, demon blood cultivators, and invading martial cultivators.
These are not only battle achievements, but also spoils of war. They are also the outlet for the anger of the many Bloodline Lineage and bloodline cultivators of "Spotted Ferret County" who were besieged and had their homes destroyed. Naturally, they will not let them go easily.
Finally, the chase lasted for more than ten days, covering nearly ten thousand miles. They killed all the demonic Demon Beast and birds that were covering the rear, as well as more than half of the fleeing Demon Race, demon blood cultivators, and invading martial artists. The rest escaped beyond the territory of "Spotted Ferret County" before the group gradually stopped the chase, withdrew their troops, and returned to "Spotted Ferret County Seat" to recuperate.
Although the battle of Spotted Ferret County has ended, with the invading Demon Race, Demon Beast, and martial artists either killed or driven away, the years-long war and slaughter have caused enormous damage and destruction to the entire Spotted Ferret County.
Not to mention that within the territory of Spotted Ferret County, the servant Lineage of the Hua Household have basically been destroyed by the invaders, their resources plundered, and their members massacred.
Even the county town where the "Spotted Ferret" Hua Household lived, although it was not breached by the enemy, was already in ruins and desolation after years of fierce fighting, with heavy casualties.
The Hua Household "Spotted Ferret" wants to restore and develop "Spotted Ferret County," which has suffered heavy damage and destruction. It is unknown how much time, energy, and resources it will take.
The only consolation is probably the war merits and rewards for killing a large number of Demon Race, demon blood cultivators, and invading martial arts practitioners, as well as for protecting "Spotted Ferret County Seat".
However, although "Spotted Ferret County" is now in dire need of reconstruction, the Hua Household "Spotted Ferret" still held a grand celebration banquet in the county town after the war.
On the one hand, it was to entertain and thank the cultivators from the various True Spirit Lineage of "Bifang Commandery" who came to their aid. On the other hand, years of fierce fighting had already exhausted the Hua Household and its many servant Lineage, leaving them extremely demoralized. They urgently needed such a victory celebration to reward them, boost morale, and win them over.
Kong Wenxuan had just finished dealing with the wounded and even killed members of his clan with his fifth and nineteenth uncles, and upon receiving the invitation, he also brought his clan members to the banquet.
This final battle in the "Spotted Ferret County Seat" was not long, lasting less than half a month, but it was extremely fierce, and it became more and more intense as it went on.
Even Kong Wenxuan was injured several times in the battle, and was eventually severely wounded. Those Lineage who followed him and also wanted to hone their skills in the great battle, including Foundation Establishment Late Stage disciples and Qi Refining Ninth Layer disciples, inevitably suffered many injuries and even deaths.
After all, if you want to use the battlefield as a whetstone to sharpen a divine sword, you will inevitably encounter situations where the divine sword is worn down by the whetstone.
All Kong Wenxuan and the others could do was collect the remains of their clansmen who had died or fallen on the battlefield, tidy their appearance, put them in coffins, and then put them into specially prepared Storage Bag, preparing to take them back to the Lineage later to be buried in the "Peacock Secret Realm" Ancestral Spirit Mountain Peak.
Although casualties are inevitable in any great battle, the casualties and losses of the cultivators from "Spotted Ferret County" were even more severe. However, the Hua Household provided a large amount of resources, spiritual items, pills, talismans, Spirit Artifact and other treasures as compensation and rewards. They also prepared many precious and highly effective spiritual dishes, spiritual fruits and spirit wines for everyone to enjoy at the victory celebration banquet. Gradually, the morale of the crowd was rekindled.
The banquet was filled with laughter and cheers. Some talented singers and dancers from the "Bloodline Lineage" began to perform, celebrating the victory in the great battle, the survival of everyone in the battle, and the successful defense of "Spotted Ferret County Seat".
Kong Wenxuan was also sitting at the banquet, looking at a jade plate on the table in front of him. It contained a plate of red pine nuts, each one about the size of a little finger, surrounded by a red glow, like little red fireballs. You could even feel some heat radiating outwards from the plate.
These "Red Pine Nuts" are spiritual objects produced from the "Red Pine" spiritual wood provided by "Spotted Ferret County". They have the effect of strengthening the body, enhancing physical strength, and improving physical power. The "Giant Transformation" Bloodline Divine Ability of the "Spotted Ferret" Hua Household is supported by these "Red Pine Nuts" spiritual fruits, which strengthen the body, enhance physical constitution, and thus support the body.
Of course, the members and cultivators of the "Spotted Ferret" Hua Household have been eating various "Red Pine Nuts" spiritual fruits since childhood. Only through years of consumption have they been able to strengthen their physical bodies to the point where they can support the "Giant Transformation" Bloodline Divine Ability. Although eating a small amount of these "Red Pine Nuts" spiritual fruits can also strengthen the body, the effect is not significant.
The "Red Pine Nuts" spiritual fruit that Kong Wenxuan and the others were enjoying at this time were picked from the "Red Pine" spiritual tree that covered half of the county, on the highest peak of the mountain range in the center of "Spotted Ferret County Seat Fox Sable County". It was of the highest grade and had the best effect. Only after eating it could they faintly feel some warm current flowing into their bodies, slightly strengthening their bodies.
After the physical body is strengthened, it can naturally provide feedback and enhance the "bloodline power" within it. However, the "Red Pine Nuts" spiritual fruit is not a spiritual fruit specifically designed to enhance "bloodline power." It can only provide feedback on "strengthening the body," so the enhancement is limited.
The annual tax revenue that the Hua Household of "Spotted Ferret County" pays to the Qinggeng Commandery government includes a certain amount of "Red Pine Nuts" spiritual fruit.
As Kong Wenxuan enjoyed the "Red Pine Nuts" spiritual fruit on the jade plate, feeling the subtle warm currents flowing into his body and the slight improvement in his physical strength, he pondered these thoughts.
He came to Qinggeng Commandery for two reasons. First, he wanted to fight and hone his skills on the battlefield to improve his cultivation and strength. Second, he wanted to obtain some elixirs from the Geng Household Qinggeng enhance his bloodline power, thereby increasing the strength of his "Peacock Bloodline" and preparing for his breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage.
Naturally, before coming to "Qinggeng Commandery", I had specifically learned about the famous spiritual fruits and elixirs in "Qinggeng Commandery".
Phew!
Just as the celebration banquet in "Spotted Ferret County Seat" was reaching its climax, and everyone was celebrating with great enthusiasm and excitement, a shrill and piercing bird cry suddenly came from the sky.
As everyone looked up, they saw a bluish-green star appear in the distant sky. On it, a star-shaped bird with a bluish-black back and a blue belly cried out in agony before shattering. The bluish-black star then fell directly from the sky and crashed down!
"Oh no!" The Hua Lineage patriarch, who was hosting the banquet, clearly recognized the star and immediately stood up, exclaiming, "It's the ' Azure Sparrow True Spirit Star '! Something's happened to the Qin Household in Azure Sparrow County!"
