In a clearing with jagged rocks, a tall and straight man stood in front of a cave, his head slightly raised, his eyes fixed on the Spirit Mist Fruit Tree that was constantly gathering spiritual mist from the surrounding area.
But Qin Luo's gaze wasn't fixed on the pigeon-sized spirit mist fruits on the tree; instead, it was fixed on the one in the very center. That spirit mist fruit was the size of an adult's fist, and it was continuously absorbing the surrounding spirit mist, which caused a faint halo to flow across its surface.
Not far from Qin Luo, Chai Qin and the others watched with concern as Liu Shuang fed a bottle of prepared medicine into Zhuang Qi's mouth, who was leaning against a rock.
"Although the injuries are serious, fortunately, his life is not in danger. He will only need to rest for half a month."
After administering the medicine, Liu Shuang looked at Zhuang Qi, who was still unconscious, and addressed the others.
Chai Qin breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and then walked over to Qin Luo's side.
Liu Shuang glanced at Qin Luo's tall figure with a complicated expression, feeling deeply moved. She hadn't expected this Fellow Daoist Wang to be so well-hidden, even managing to kill the Earth-Splitting Bear King, a ninth-level Spirit Gathering Realm cultivator.
Thinking of this, all I could do was silently pray for Yiting; after all, she had already taught her everything she needed to...
Chai Qin walked to Qin Luo's side, his eyes full of gratitude: "Fellow Daoist Wang, we owe you a great debt this time. Otherwise, we would probably have lost our lives under the claws of that Earth-Splitting Bear King."
Qin Luo shook his head slightly: "Since we agreed to cooperate, it's only right that we face the danger together. Now that Fellow Daoist Zhuang's injuries have stabilized, we should distribute the spoils of war."
After speaking, he stared intently at the Spirit Mist Fruits on the Spirit Mist Fruit Tree.
Following Qin Luo's gaze, Chai Qin also saw the crystal-clear spirit mist fruits on the spirit mist fruit tree. He nodded slightly, his eyes also showing eagerness. After a moment of contemplation, he said:
"Fellow Daoist Wang is the strongest and played a crucial role in the battle, so he should rightfully take more Spirit Mist Fruits. I think Fellow Daoist Wang can get 60%, and we can take 40%. Of course, the largest Spirit Mist Fruit should also belong to you. What does Fellow Daoist Wang think?"
Qin Luo shook his head slightly.
"Fellow Daoist Chai, since you've all given up the largest Spirit Mist Fruit, I'm too embarrassed to take the lion's share. Let's stick to our previous agreement and split it 50/50!"
Without giving him a chance to refuse, she waved her hand, and ten pigeon-sized spirit mist fruits from the spirit mist fruit tree fell in front of Chai Qin.
Looking at the ten spirit mist fruits in front of him, Chai Qin was filled with emotion.
“Fellow Daoist, your righteousness is admirable. Since Fellow Daoist Wang has made this decision, then we will respectfully comply,” Chai Qin said solemnly.
He then put the ten spirit mist fruits into his pocket, and after a while, he took out an iron token from his sleeve and stuffed it into Qin Luo's hand.
"Since I have received such a great favor and life-saving grace from Fellow Daoist Wang, I have no way to repay it. If you need any help in the future, you can bring this token to the Chai family in the Southern Region to find me."
Qin Luo looked at the iron token in his hand and nodded slightly. "Fellow Daoist Chai, you are too kind. If there is an opportunity, I will definitely pay you a visit."
Chai Qin smiled when he saw that Qin Luo had accepted the token. He then bowed to Qin Luo and left with the other three. After all, this was still deep in the Spirit Mist Valley, and there was no doubt that some other monsters might impersonate them.
Now that they have obtained the Spirit Mist Fruit, there is no need for them to stay here. Moreover, Zhuang Qi's injuries are not suitable for staying here, so it is best to take him back as soon as possible to allow him to rest and recuperate for a while.
Before leaving, Liu Shuang winked meaningfully at Yi Ting, who was standing next to Qin Luo. This caused two unnatural blushes to appear on Yi Ting's face. She then secretly glanced at Qin Luo.
After Chai Qin and the others left, only Qin Luo and Yi Ting remained.
"The harvest time has finally arrived. I hope these Spirit Mist Fruits won't disappoint me."
Qin Luo looked at the fist-sized Spirit Mist Fruit with excitement, then channeled his spiritual energy into his hand, drawing the fist-sized Spirit Mist Fruit towards Yi Ting.
"Yi-ting, eat it."
"Master! I..."
Yi Ting was still thinking about what Liu Shuang had said earlier when she suddenly saw a fist-sized fruit floating in front of her. Upon closer inspection, it was the Spirit Mist Fruit from the tree!
She was deeply shocked when she heard Qin Luo's words. Her eyes widened as she stared in disbelief at the Spirit Mist Fruit and Qin Luo in front of her.
You must know that Master went to great lengths to obtain this Spirit Mist Fruit. He fought a life-or-death battle with the Earth-Splitting Bear King to acquire this precious fruit.
But now, he unhesitatingly gave her this hard-won opportunity, which moved Yiting deeply, her eyes reddened slightly, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
"Master, I can't accept this, it's from you... Waaah!"
Upon hearing his words, Yi Ting quickly waved her hand in refusal, but Qin Luo had anticipated her move and directly stuffed the Spirit Mist Fruit into her mouth.
The Spirit Mist Fruit melted instantly in her mouth, and a cool and pure energy spread throughout Yi Ting's body. Yi Ting felt as if her body was enveloped in a mist, and every cell was rejoicing.
"Sit down cross-legged and circulate your energy!"
At this moment, Qin Luo's slightly stern words rang in her ears, which startled Yi Ting so much that she quickly sat down cross-legged and began to circulate the Flame Rhyme Alchemy Technique within her body.
That energy flowed like a rushing river through her meridians, and was then refined by the Flame Rhyme Alchemy Technique into strands of the purest spiritual energy.
As the energy of the Spirit Mist Fruit was continuously absorbed, Yi Ting's aura gradually became stronger.
The fifth acupoint in the body was instantly activated...
Qin Luo circulated the Myriad Manifestations Return to One Technique within his body, instantly devouring the fifty-six times the spiritual energy that had just returned. Looking at Yi Ting, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground and enveloped in wisps of mist, a strange light flashed in his eyes.
After taking a deep breath, he took out the four kinds of pills that Yiting had refined earlier, put one of each kind in his palm, and then stuffed them all into her mouth at once.
While Yiting was concentrating on her cultivation, she suddenly felt several objects being stuffed into her mouth, and several different medicinal powers instantly spread in her mouth.
She was startled, but quickly calmed down and continued to circulate the Flame Rhyme Alchemy Technique, trying to refine and absorb the medicinal power.
As the pill entered her stomach, the acupoints in Yiting's body were rapidly activated, the sixth, the seventh...
In just a few minutes, she lit up all nine acupoints in her body, and spiritual energy continued to flow into her body. The next moment, the nine acupoints in her body merged into one, and a green sea of energy appeared in her dantian.
After breaking through to the Spirit Gathering Realm, the spiritual energy that flowed into her body was transformed into wisps of emerald green spiritual energy by the Flame Rhyme Alchemy Technique and surged into her Qi Sea.
As spiritual energy flowed in, Yi Ting's appearance also underwent some subtle changes.
