Just the thought of the consequences of not being able to nurture the divine tree seed gave Yi Yun a headache. The divine tree seed … was basically the reincarnation of a god. How much Heaven Earth Yuan Qi was needed to nurture a god? Just the thought of it rendered Yi Yun speechless. It would be no laughing matter if it went hungry. For example, if he were to suddenly be immobilized while fighting others, resulting in him being killed, wouldn't that be an unjust death?
He really did not know if devouring the divine tree seed was a blessing or a curse. Now that the divine tree seed had fused with Yi Yun's dantian, it was too late for regrets.
Of course, Yi Yun did not regret it. If not for refining the divine tree seed, he would have died several times in the Door to the 33 Skies. He would not have lived to this day.
The nurturing divine tree seed was a challenge, but at the same time, it was a huge opportunity.
Yi Yun had a premonition that as long as he allowed the divine tree seed to grow, his strength would increase exponentially.
"A portion of my meridians are still occupied by the divine tree seed. I can't use my full strength. I need to clear up that portion of my meridians first."
Although the two pills Ji Shuiyan had given Yi Yun were precious, they were unable to restore him to his peak state.
However, Yi Yun also had spiritual herbs in his interspatial ring. Previously, he could not move, so he could not take them out. Now that Yi Yun's consciousness had recovered, he could touch his interspatial ring and take out all the elixirs and relics in one go.
Over the years, Yi Yun had accumulated quite a number of relics and pills. Now, he fed them to the divine tree seed as though they were free of cost.
The divine tree seed swept away all the Yuan Qi, reducing the relics and pills to ash at a discernible speed. At the same time, the energy in Yi Yun's dantian increased exponentially. Even with Yi Yun's robust foundation, he was unable to withstand such intense energy. However, with the divine tree seed, all the Yuan Qi transformed into a vortex that was sucked in by the divine tree seed.
The divine tree seed's sprout finally sprouted tender leaves. At the same time, Yi Yun felt the immense vitality from the divine tree seed begin to nourish his meridians. It made all his energy surge.
Furthermore, Yi Yun's meridians had previously thickened, so it was not a problem for them to withstand the Yuan Qi.
Yi Yun was surprised to discover that his cultivation level was rapidly increasing.
Oh? Was that even possible?
Originally, Yi Yun was only at the beginning stages of the Dao Manifestation realm, so he needed a period of time to consolidate his cultivation level. But now, Yi Yun's cultivation level only took ten minutes to consolidate at the early stages of the Dao Manifestation realm. He was even beginning to advance towards the mid-stages of the Dao Manifestation realm.
Yi Yun had four nine-leaf Dao fruits, so his nomological insights were extremely thorough. There was no need for him to worry about an unstable foundation. His cultivation level rose straight to the peak of the early stages of the Dao Manifestation realm. He was just short of entering the mid-stages of the Dao Manifestation realm.
Moreover, the energy that the Divine Tree Seed fed back was incomparably pure and did not have any side effects. It should be known that although many pills could also increase one's cultivation by leaps and bounds, there were times when a martial artist would have to carefully refine these impurities because of the impure energy contained within the pill. In the end, it would take a lot of time.
As for Yi Yun, he did not have such a problem.
The Divine Tree Seed was like an energy filter. It absorbed about ninety-seven percent of the pill's energy and fed back only two to three percent. However, this two to three percent was extremely pure. It brought Yi Yun immense benefits!
This discovery left Yi Yun pleasantly surprised. Although the energy he absorbed was very little, it was the quality that mattered. Furthermore, it was not a waste to feed more than ninety percent of the energy to the Divine Tree Seed. When the Divine Tree Seed truly matured, it was likely to bring him an opportunity.
"I have four nine-leaf Dao fruits and the Divine Tree Seed. If I were to get my hands on some natural treasures, wouldn't my cultivation speed improve by leaps and bounds?"
Just as this thought flashed across Yi Yun's mind, he suddenly frowned. In his perception, he saw the scene in the sand boat. It made his killing intent surge.
At that moment, in front of the old woman, two misty ghastly claws were holding Ji Shuiyan's arms, lifting her up.
Ji Shuiyan's face was covered in bloody wounds. Her face was ashen.
"Defy me? Do you know the price? "The old woman's sinister voice sounded.
"Just kill me! I've had enough! "
Ji Shuiyan bit her lips, causing her teeth to be covered in blood. Ever since the old witch appeared, it had been a nightmare for her. She did not know when this nightmare would come to an end. She really could not hold on any longer. She knew that it was only a matter of time before she was tortured to death by the old witch. She did not kill her only because the old witch was counting on her to find the medicine.
Having been forced into a corner, Ji Shuiyan already had thoughts of dying.
"You want to die? Heh! Heh! Do you think it's that easy to die? "
The old woman stood up and walked in front of Ji Shuiyan. Suddenly, she grabbed Ji Shuiyan's blouse and tore it apart!
"Chi La!"
The ear-piercing sound of ripping cloth resounded. Ji Shuiyan's blouse, along with her pink dudou, were ripped off, revealing a large portion of her body.
Ji Shuiyan screamed as she struggled with all her might. However, she could not escape the two ghastly claws that were grabbing her hands.
"Heh heh heh, how tender!"
The old woman licked her lips. Ji Shuiyan's skin was delicate but the more it was so, the more vile the old woman felt. "I asked you to kill a toad you picked up from the streets. How dare you defy me? Do you really think my methods are nothing impressive?"
The old woman gently beckoned with her hand. The Heart Devouring Gu that she had given to Ji Shuiyan automatically flew out and landed in her hand.
The old woman held the tiny Heart Devouring Gu in her hand and admired it in an infatuated manner. "Little darling, you must be hungry. There will be food in a while."
As she spoke, she placed the Heart Devouring Gu on Ji Shuiyan's belly button.
"Zhi Zhi Zhi!"
The Heart Devouring Gu let out an ear-piercing screech as it burrowed into Ji Shuiyan's belly button.
Ji Shuiyan's expression changed drastically. Even though she was resilient and could endure what ordinary people could not, she was still a girl. How could she not be afraid to see such a disgusting worm burrowing into her belly button?
"Hehe, what a voluptuous chest. Who are you trying to seduce with that pair of white bunnies on your chest? Why don't you feed them to the Heart Devouring Gu. Let it eat up your pair of bunnies. Let's see if any man will like you. Heh heh heh! "
The old woman's voice was extremely venomous. Ji Shuiyan's forehead broke out into a cold sweat when she heard it. She knew very well how crazy the old witch was. She was definitely capable of doing such a thing.
She was not afraid of death but she was afraid of living a life worse than death.
She felt an excruciating pain from her belly button. The black Heart Devouring Gu had already bitten through her belly and was about to burrow in.
However, just as she was despairing, she suddenly felt a chill in her abdomen.
Whew!
A cold beam flashed as the Heart Devouring Gu let out a sharp scream and flew up.
"Ding!"
With a metallic clang, the Heart Devouring Gu was nailed to the wall by a flying dagger!
The flying dagger sank into the wall, its hilt still vibrating. Ji Shuiyan was momentarily stunned. Who was it?
