Chapter 1164: Chapter 658: Capturing the Mushroom Spirit

Under the relentless blessing and nourishment of elixirs by Yang Genshuo, Yang Zhu’s wounds soon healed almost completely.

But he was still practicing, relying on a ray of sunlight on his head... his aura kept expanding. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Bang!!!

The next day, Yang Zhu broke through to the Qi Cultivation Second Layer, feeling reborn.

"Old Ancestor, I’m healed!"

"Very good, very spirited!"

Yang Zhu’s recovery exceeded Yang Genshuo’s expectations, even advancing a small realm.

For the Yang Family, advancing from the Qi Cultivation First Layer to the Second Layer is negligible, but for Yang Zhu in the Mushroom World, it’s a significant enhancement.

Breathing deeply in the sunlight piercing through the clouds, Yang Zhu took a deep breath.

"If only there were more light..."

His recent breakthrough was not only due to extensive blessings and elixirs, but mainly the result of his diligent cultivation in the Gongyang Immortal Clan these days.

A bit of cultivation in a normal environment allows realm advancement as effortlessly as breathing.

Sadly, he’s returned to the lightless Mushroom World.

There is no light here, and not even spiritual energy in the air. The only way to replenish spiritual power is to absorb things like [Spirit Power Mushroom].

Of course, with support from the Old Ancestor, he can now absorb spiritual power from spirit stones or take elixirs.

But cultivation is still too slow.

The ray of light atop the mountain is also very weak, barely enabling him to operate his cultivation technique, condensing a trace of light spiritual power. Sustaining the realm is fine, but advancing further would be too slow.

Yang Genshuo watched Yang Zhu’s cultivation, shaking his head slightly.

"He has a Light Spirit Root, with immense talent, but in a lightless world... his cultivation speed is so slow, he’s too suppressed, must find a place with light quickly."

"Wonder if there’s any place with light in this broken world..."

The chances are slim. Even a bowl-sized beam of light from the sky would be the most dazzling place within hundreds of kilometers in such a dark world.

Yang Zhu made his way here following such a ray of light.

"For now, it seems this mountain might be Yang Zhu’s only place for some cultivation..."

"Let’s reside here for a while."

[Manifestation]

"Yang Zhu, take out the [Standard Building Block] from your storage ring and build a matchbox to stay in, put your mother inside; she’s not safe to bring along when you head out."

"Oh! Okay!"

Yang Zhu only focused on recovering and advancing after seeing his mother was safe.

Seeing his mother’s still closed eyes, Yang Zhu touched Miduo’s face.

"Mother, I won’t let anyone hurt you. We will... get out of here again!"

Quickly setting up a makeshift house, Yang Zhu followed the Old Ancestor’s advice and headed down the mountain.

"Yang Zhu, your most important task now is to replenish mushroom power for your Teleportation Mushroom, remember those Entangling Mushrooms?"

"I understand, Old Ancestor, I’ll go catch some more!"

The formidable Mushroom Spirit Yang Zhu couldn’t catch, but there were plenty of Entangling Mushrooms all over the mountain.

Yang Zhu just needed to take a few steps down the mountain; even without reaching the bottom, Entangling Mushrooms would actively launch entangling attacks at him.

Yang Zhu effortlessly subdued one Entangling Mushroom with his magic.

This time, he didn’t link up with the blue mushroom silk from the Entangling Mushroom but directly fed it to the Teleportation Mushroom in his chest.

[’Teleportation Mushroom (Immortal Mushroom)’ in Yang Zhu’s body devoured one ’Entangling Mushroom (Mortal Mushroom)’, gaining a small amount of mushroom power... Teleportation energy progress: 1/20.]

"It doesn’t hurt anymore, Old Ancestor!"

Yang Zhu said happily.

Yang Genshuo looked at the progress, satisfied, as no other incidents happened.

"Continue."

With full enthusiasm, Yang Zhu roamed the mountain all afternoon, capturing 20 Entangling Mushrooms, all fed to the Teleportation Mushroom.

Right after the last Entangling Mushroom was devoured... a large amount of mushroom silk burst forth from Yang Zhu’s heart!

The blue and white mushroom silk rapidly spread throughout Yang Zhu’s body, and his heart began to powerfully thump.

"That sensation... is back!"

Yang Zhu clenched his fists, feeling immense power fill his body.

"Old Ancestor, I can travel through space again!"

[’Teleportation Mushroom (Immortal Mushroom)’ in Yang Zhu’s body devoured one ’Entangling Mushroom (Mortal Mushroom)’, gaining a small amount of mushroom power... Teleportation energy progress is full, capable of ’Ability 1: Teleportation’]

Yang Genshuo smiled slightly: "Good, 20 Entangling Mushrooms can refuel you once, and there are at least tens of thousands more below... Oh yes, try absorbing more to see what happens."

"Okay!"

The powerful beating of his heart gave Yang Zhu ample sense of security.

Following the same approach, Yang Zhu lured another Entangling Mushroom and absorbed it again.

Perfect absorption again.

A new strand of mushroom silk appeared on Yang Zhu’s heart’s Teleportation Mushroom, growing larger.

[’Teleportation Mushroom (Immortal Mushroom)’ in Yang Zhu’s body devoured one ’Entangling Mushroom (Mortal Mushroom)’, gaining a small amount of mushroom power... Second-time mushroom power energy storage is ongoing, current progress: 1/20, Teleportation energy storage count: 1.]

"Great! It really can store more energy. As long as there’s enough energy, I can rapidly travel back and forth between the Mushroom World and other Legendary Lands..."

This is extremely good news!

Next time Yang Zhu ventures out, as long as he’s not instantly killed, he can continue to utilize the Teleportation Mushroom to return to the safe Mushroom World.

Safety is ensured.

"The main issue now is whether after teleporting, I’ll return to the Gongyang Family’s place, or will it change locations?"
