This time, everyone was in disbelief, "What? A spiritual root can be created after birth? "
"Theoretically, yes!"
Ye Chen frowned slightly and said slowly, "To others, having a spiritual root doesn't matter. However, I obtained a pill formula in my early years. It's called the Qi Mending Pill. The Qi Mending Pill happens to allow mortals without a spiritual root to possess a spiritual root."
Whoosh!
Everyone was in an uproar.
Even Ye Hai, Ye Ming, and the rest could not help but become excited. Although they could accept the fact that they did not have a spiritual root, how could they not want to have one?
After all, they already knew that it was not a problem for cultivators to live to a hundred years old. How could they be willing to wait until they were separated from Ye Chen after a hundred years?
Compared to everyone's excitement, Ye Chen was extremely calm.
Seeing his expression, Old Master Gu seemed to have guessed something. He could not help but ask, "Mr. Ye, if I'm not mistaken, the Qi Mending Pill that you mentioned is probably not easy to refine, right?"
His words immediately woke everyone up.
That was right!
Such a heaven-defying pill, especially one that was so easy to refine, would be able to embark on the path of cultivation.
Ye Chen said softly as he met everyone's gaze, "Old Master, you're right. It's not easy to obtain the Qi Mending Pill. The main reason is that refining the Qi Mending Pill requires a spiritual herb called the Earth Immortal Fruit. It's too difficult to find. Even I've never obtained it before."
Ye Ming felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, "In other words, this hope is too slim, and it's almost impossible?"
The others also looked resentful.
"It's not too slim!"
Ye Chen hesitated for a moment and eventually revealed his true purpose, "I've received news recently that there's an Earth Immortal Fruit somewhere. I plan to go there to look for it."
"Where is it? Is it dangerous? "
Wu Lan asked worriedly, "Xiaochen, if it's dangerous, don't go."
"The ghost ship!"
Ye Chen said softly and said slowly, "Only by stepping onto the ghost ship can it bring me to where the Earth Immortal Fruit grows!"
Ghost ship?
Everyone could not help but look at each other.
On the other hand, Old Master Gu's expression changed. He seemed to have thought of something and exclaimed, "Could it be the ghost ship that only appears once every 20 years?"
His face was filled with shock. It was obvious that he knew something.
Ye Hai asked, "Master Gu, what's a ghost ship?"
Even Gu Yingying asked in confusion, "That's right, grandpa. It's my first time hearing about a ghost ship since I've grown up!"
Old Master Gu took a good look at Ye Chen. He suppressed the shock inside of him and said, "A ghost ship will appear on the Wu River every 20 years. No one knows where this ghost ship comes from or where it goes. However, it's said that the end of the ghost ship can reach the netherworld. The dead can be resurrected on the ghost ship …"
Hearing this, everyone's expression changed.
Old Man Gu continued, "Every time the ghost ship appears, many people will board it. However, after so many years, none of the people who boarded the ghost ship ever returned. They all said that they died on the ghost ship, or were left on the ghost ship forever."
"That won't do!"
Wu Lan objected without even thinking, "Xiaochen, mom won't allow you to go!"
Old Master Gu also said in a deep voice, "That's right, Mr. Ye. The ghost ship is too strange. Too many powerhouses have been buried there. I think it's better not to go!"
Ye Hai rejected with a dark expression, "That's right, we can't go no matter what. If anything happens, who will mom and I rely on for the rest of our lives? What about Yuhan and Mengmeng? "
"Dad, mom, there's no need to persuade me!"
However, Ye Chen shook his head firmly and said, "I've already decided. I must go to the ghost ship this time. You guys don't have a spiritual root. I don't want to see you guys die with me in a hundred years. Moreover, the ghost ship only appears once every 20 years. If I miss it this time, I'll have to wait for another 20 years."
At this point, he took a deep breath in and said, "Don't worry. With my current strength, no one can threaten me. I know how to protect myself. Moreover, the ghost ship might not be as terrifying as you think."
Su Yuhan, who was standing aside, lowered her head and remained silent.
She finally understood why Ye Chen had gathered everyone together in such a serious manner today. After going around in circles, his goal was to board the ghost ship.
"I'm not worried about myself. The only thing I'm worried about is you guys. Before I leave, I'll set up some traps!"
Ye Chen said without any hesitation. Subsequently, he said to Ye Wen, Gu Yingying, and Gu Shaokun, "Come to my side!"
When the three of them approached, he stretched out his hand and pointed at the space between their eyebrows. He used his divine sense to transmit a suitable cultivation method to them and warned, "The memories in your mind are related to your own life and death. Do not reveal a single word to anyone. Remember, remember!"
…
At the back of the mountain in the northeast forest!
A figure slowly stood on the back of the mountain, his eyes sizing up the formation fluctuations in the back of the mountain. He could vaguely sense that there was an aura growing stronger inside. It was like a spring thunder that was waiting for the moment to explode.
Ye Chen secretly sent a voice transmission to the Patriarch of Hell, "Fellow Zhuang, I'm going on a long journey. Please take care of my family!"
The Patriarch of Hell, who was in closed-door cultivation in search of a breakthrough, woke up from his meditation. He said in a deep voice immediately when he sensed the seriousness in Ye Chen's words, "Fellow Ye, don't worry. As long as the patriarch is here, your family will be here!"
"Alright!"
Ye Chen turned around and disappeared.
Although he had not only set up a peerless killing formation in the Ye residence villa, but he had also increased Yang Tian and Lin Tai's strength rapidly in just a few days. However, to be safe, he still came all the way to inform the Patriarch of Hell.
The Patriarch of Hell was about to break through to Foundation Building. With his strength and methods, no one below the Emperor Stage could hurt him!
…
A few days later, on a certain night!
It was winter on the Wu River, a tributary of the Yangtze River. At night, the temperature suddenly dropped. The fisherman, Li Laosi, stood on the fishing boat in a cotton jacket, continuously collecting the fish that had been placed in the river.
"What a big eel, and it's a red eel!"
A red eel that was nearly one meter long was swaying on the fishing net. Li Laosi reacted quickly and poured the eel into the bucket that he had already prepared.
Looking at the crab and octopus in the bucket, Li Laosi revealed a satisfied smile, "There's at least five catties. I can sell them for at least 200 yuan at the seafood market. Hehe, together with the money I saved up before, it's enough for my living expenses in college!"
In the past, he would have gone back by this time.
However, his wife, who used to work in the glass factory, had injured her leg some time ago and could only lie at home to recuperate. As time passed, the family gradually could not make ends meet, so he had no choice but to take the risk to go fishing.
"It's time to go back!
It's so cold tonight! "
Li Laosi took out a bottle of white wine and drank two mouthfuls. He let out a breath and turned around to sail the boat.
However, the moment he turned around, his eyes instantly widened, and his throat let out strange whimpering sounds due to excessive fear.
