Chapter 74 Who am I? Where do I come from?
Nine dried butterflies that were performing a ritual above the center of the holy light suddenly crashed into the center at an extremely fast speed and with extremely strong force. In the center, the nine dried butterflies collided with each other and instantly turned into countless powders that floated down.
The holy light quickly dimmed, the spiritual power disappeared instantly, and the power of life also disappeared completely, as if it was just a dream.
But when this dream ended, they all gained a lot.
Her second, third and fourth senior sisters have accumulated abundant spiritual energy and their cultivation has reached the critical point of breakthrough. As long as they are given a suitable environment, they can sit down and try to break through right now!
If the second senior sister successfully breaks through, she will be able to reach the late Jindan stage, while the third and fourth senior sisters will be able to reach the Jindan stage. Once they reach the Jindan stage, they can return to the Qingxuan Sect's secret realm to practice. At that time, they will no longer have to work so hard and dangerously outside to compete with others for resources like a casual cultivator.
Her seventh senior brother Ji Zizhuo was even more exaggerated. When the holy light disappeared, he successfully broke through and reached the middle stage of the Golden Core. The whole process took no more than half an hour, which was jaw-droppingly fast.
Dong Fangjin, who was traveling with them, also broke through the bottleneck of the Jindan stage, and was able to continue his cultivation.
Even Fatty's originally green head had a small white flower blooming on it, which looked very beautiful.
Only Ye Linglong, who absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy and holy light, still failed to reach the critical point of breakthrough and is still in the initial stage of foundation building.
There was no other way, she had to nurture three spiritual roots, all of which were valuable, which resulted in her being much slower than others.
But she thought from another perspective. She was the biggest beneficiary of this holy light because everyone had reached the top and was only one step away from a breakthrough. Therefore, they could not absorb any excess. However, she was absorbing from the beginning to the end without stopping for even a second.
She is not in a hurry. The road to becoming an immortal is long, and she will be able to break through one day anyway.
Besides, not breaking through will not affect her fighting ability. Xie Linyi has reached the Golden Core stage, and Liu Yuanxu has reached the Yuanying stage, but they were still beaten by her who was only at the Foundation Establishment stage.
At this time, the holy light completely disappeared, and the scene in the middle of the sea of spiritual flowers finally appeared clearly in front of Ye Linglong and the others.
I saw a man sitting in the middle of the sea of flowers. He was wearing a white robe and had white hair, a long beard and an old face.
He sat there with his eyes closed, just like an old man taking a nap outside his home, looking friendly and amiable.
Ye Linglong and the others looked at each other in confusion and walked towards the old man.
"Where are you going?" Fat Head asked.
"We're already on someone else's territory, why don't we pay a visit to the old man?" Ye Linglong replied.
"Don't go. It's useless. He won't pay attention to you."
Although Fat Head said this, it also followed Ye Linglong when he went over.
"Why?"
"He has been sitting here for a long, long time. He has been here since I was old enough to understand. I have asked all the creatures here, but they don't know when this old man came. They only know that this old man has been here since they were here, and he has been sitting here motionless for many years."
"Is he dead or alive?"
"I don't know. We climbed up and touched him, but he just didn't move."
"So you hung fruits on the trees outside to lure people in to pick them, then set up an illusion to trick people into entering, and then sold people to the caterpillar, which turned them into dried butterflies. After collecting nine of them, you started this ritual and gained the power of the holy light?"
"Yes! In order to trick more people in, we deliberately hung the fruits grown in this forest outside! You don't know that after being bathed in the holy light, the fruits here have intelligence. It is so difficult to find fruits without intelligence to deceive people! In the end, you picked them all. I am so angry!"
Ye Linglong was stunned.
"Are all the fruits here as intelligent as you?"
Oh my god! Isn't that a bunch of stupid fat guys who get together every day to do stupid things?
"That's not the case. They are just beginning to develop spiritual intelligence. They have a little bit of consciousness and can absorb spiritual energy and cultivate slowly. Very, very slowly, they have reached a level as powerful as mine. I am the only one who has the Gate of Life. I am unique!"
"So that's where your confidence comes from."
"What honey?"
"Fathead, can those little animals that just came to participate in the ceremony speak like you?"
"No, I'm the only fruit here that can talk, so I'm the only one who can do the task of deceiving people."
"So, don't you find this weird?"
"Ah? What's strange?"
"You are either animals or plants here, there are no people, so why are you the only one who can speak human language? Even if you are born with intelligence, it is impossible for you to be born with human language, right?"
Fathead's mouth opened wide in surprise and his eyes widened.
"Yeah, why can I speak human language?"
Fathead jumped up excitedly and grabbed Ye Linglong's clothes nervously.
"Who am I? Where did I come from? Is there something wrong with my background? Am I really a fruit? Oh my God! Am I... Am I not myself at all?"
Fathead became more and more excited and shocked as he spoke, and something seemed to be wrong with him.
Seeing that Fatty was about to become insane due to self-doubt, Ye Linglong quickly picked it up by its back and placed it in front of Ji Zizhuo.
"Whether you are a Snow Spirit Fruit, my Seventh Senior Brother has the final say, since he has eaten it after all."
…
Fat Head and Ji Zizhuo looked at each other in silence for a moment.
"You should be the Snow Spirit Fruit, right? After all, you are really a tonic. And if you were not a plant, how could my junior sister use the wood-based rebirth technique to give you long legs and a long head?"
Fat Head breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. It turned out that Fat Head was still Fat Head.
"It's just..."
Fathead was startled and became nervous again. Could the situation be reversed?
"Can you be a clean snow fruit?"
…
Fathead immediately became angry. He pointed at Ji Zizhuo and said, "From now on, even if you kneel down and beg me, I will never let you eat even one of my toes again!"
Ji Zizhuo was annoyed now: "Even if you cut off your feet, wash them, mix them with honey and sugar, the smell will never go away!"
A big quarrel ended in failure on both sides.
In order to prevent them from hurting each other again, Ye Linglong quickly quickened his pace and took Fatty to the front of the old man.
I don't know why, but when I walked in front of him, it seemed as if all the quarrels and noise in the world disappeared at that moment, and only peace and spaciousness remained.
At this time, Ke Xinlan stretched out a finger and put it on the old man's nose, then she took it back in surprise.
"He's still breathing!"
This old man is actually alive!
Now everyone stopped laughing and became respectful and cautious.
