Chapter 237: Chapter 206: Jade Spirit Child_1
Damn!
Staring at the Uprooted Spirit Fruit tree, Xu Mu’s eyes couldn’t help but twitch a bit.
He had already restrained the power of his Divine Skills, but he didn’t expect it to still be this intense.
As for the black snake vines, they had long been pulverized into dust.
This kind of pure energy impact, not to mention the black snake vines, even the ground soil was crystallized, as if a meteorite had fallen.
The only good news was that there were still quite a few fruits on the tree that hadn’t been blown away. Xu Mu quickly flew over and gathered them all up with his skills.
Upon the final count, there were only five hundred and twenty-one left.
“Got to be careful next time, lost half of the harvest this time!”
“At least I determined the power of the Divine Skills, which gives me some peace of mind!”
Xu Mu carefully put away all of the Spirit Fruits, leaving only one in his hand for closer examination.
The entire Spirit Fruit was about the size of a sandpot, shaped like a sitting porcelain doll with clear features and a smiling face. A faint spiritual rhyme was circulating on its surface, revealing its extraordinariness.
Just as Xu Mu was contemplating how to consume it, the puppet cat ran over, jumped onto his shoulder, and stared in astonishment at the large pit that had been blasted into the ground.
“What skill did you just use? It was so powerful.”
“I used the Turtle School Qi Gong.”
Xu Mu blurted out randomly.
Although he was miles away from Haizhu, he still did not want anyone to know that he had practiced the Kun Peng Tun Tian Jue.
“Turtle School Qi Gong?”
This name sounded strange, and was nowhere to be found in the cat’s memory. The puppet cat did not get stuck on this particular skill – for someone at its master’s level, there were plenty of similar ones.
Yet, for someone who had just entered the Golden Pill phase, to be able to unleash such great power, it could only say that Xu Mu was indeed worth his master’s choice.
“Senior, how do I eat this?”
Xu Mu held up the Spirit Fruit in his hand and signaled towards the cat.
“Like any other Spirit Fruit, just eat it directly.”
“Oh!”
Although the puppet cat said so, he only cut off a small piece and put it in his mouth.
It was better to be cautious in such a place.
The juice was cnsp and refreshing. An exotic fragrance permeated his lungs.
The fruit melted into warm energy as soon as it entered his belly, flowing through his body. Part of it was absorbed by his body, and the other was absorbed by the Golden Pill.
Not only could it replenish his spiritual power and alleviate fatigue, but this fruit was truly amazing!
And he didn’t feel any Yin Sha Qi from it.
After consuming three Spirit Fruits, Xu Mu’s body had fully recovered to its peak condition, and his cultivation level had even improved to a certain extent. There was no arguing, this fruit was indeed a cure-all.
“Senior, would you like one?”
Xu Mu picked up one and handed it to the puppet cat sitting on his shoulder.
“I don’t have taste buds, so it would be a waste.”
The puppet cat stretched lazily and pushed the fruit away.
“It’s okay, it’s just a fruit!”
Xu Mu once again handed it over with a smile.
The puppet cat looked at him with some surprise, then opened its mouth and swallowed the fruit, which was larger than its body, in one bite.
The roots of the Spirit Fruit tree can be transplanted, you could try to take some back to attempt a transplantation.”
After finishing the fruit, the puppet cat casually mentioned.
Xu Mu’s eyes lit up immediately.
This Spirit Fruit was not of a low grade. If it could be transplanted, that would be fantastic.
“Thanks for your advice, Senior!”
Xu Mu stepped forward, thoroughly cutting off all the roots of the tree, which made the puppet cat’s eyes twitch.
Though the fruit tree was uprooted, it hadn’t died completely and could have recovered after some time, but now it was totally ruined.
While shaking its head helplessly in its mind, it closed its eyes.
After they finished tidying up, the man and the cat journeyed on. They’d traveled about one to two hours, when a large area of black fog appeared before them, completely covering a nearby mountain.
Through the thick black fog, they could vaguely see a blue crystal light emitting from the mountain.
Xu Mu took out a jade scroll to confirm, and found that this was their destination.
“This doesn’t seem to be fog?”
Xu Mu extended his Divine Intent, discovering that the black fog shrouding the entire mountain was actually many tiny black mayflies. Due to their small size and vast quantity, it appeared as a black fog.
Does elder know what kind of bugs these are?” Xu Mu asked.
The puppet cat shook its head.
“The information my master gave me did not mention the existence of bugs.”
“So what do we do now?”
He did not recognize the monster beasts in this space and dared not act rashly.
If it ended up like the roaming sky beast, it would be troublesome.
“Catch a monster beast and throw it in to see.” The puppet cat suggested.
“Good!”
Xu Mu nodded, thinking the idea was good.
He walked along the periphery of the swarm to the right, quickly finding a monster beast covered in green fur and had black skin. It was hiding in the grass and looked like a sheep.
If he had not stepped on it, he almost didn’t notice it.
After knocking out the sheep monster beast, Xu Mu carried it and quietly approached the swarm. When he felt the distance was about right, he forcefully threw it in.
There was a splash!
The sheep monster beast landed heavily on the ground, convulsing, obviously having suffered a heavy blow.
If it had been an ordinary sheep, it would probably have been knocked unconscious by now.
But this sheep monster beast managed to stand up shakily after getting thrown. Aside from a slight dizziness, there didn’t seem to be anything seriously wrong with it.
Just as it staggered away, the swarm in the sky clearly noticed something amiss here and, like the sky was falling down, crazily converged on the sheep monster beast.
The sheep monster beast had not gone far when it was covered by the dense bugs, turning from green to black.
“Mi Mi!”
The bug-covered sheep monster beast let out a terrified cry. The surrounding plants, as if affected by some force, began to grow wildly, continuously smacking itself.
It must be the sheep monster beast activating its innate Divine Skills.
Unfortunately, while the attack of these plants was not weak, the bugs were simply too numerous. They bundled the sheep monster beast into a black ball, which was still growing rapidly.
Just after two breaths, the plants ceased their actions, and the terrified cries abruptly stopped.
A few breaths later, the bugs flew away, leaving only a green skin and a complete skeleton on the ground.

Watching the swarm of bugs in the sky, Xu Mu felt a slight tingling in his scalp.
Not to mention his attack, just the sheer number made him reluctant.
“What do we do now, elder? I feel like I can’t break in with my strength, and even if I could, it would be hard to come out!”
Xu Mu revealed a bitter smile, but soon his eyes lit up.
“Right, the monster beast we are supposed to kill, might it have been eaten by these bugs?”
If that’s the case, he wouldn’t need to go in.
“No!”
The puppet cat definitively said.
“Why?”
If I say no, it means no. Why are you asking so many questions?”
II II
What the…! You little cat, are you getting moody with me!
Xu Mu wanted to bet, but was swiped away by the cat’s paw.
“What now? I’m not going to throw my life away.”
“Why don’t you just go underground!? Idiot!” The puppet cat disdainfully said.

Xu Mu was speechless.
He had thought of using the earth skill to escape, but simply didn’t want to go in.
Even if I could go, I can’t fight that monster beast in the swarm.” Xu Mu complained.
“That’s your problem! I don’t care!”
The puppet cat simply laid down flat.
Damn it!
Xu Mu cursed in his heart.
But for his daughter’s sake, he also had to grit his teeth and find a way.
Using the earth skill would definitely not work. He didn’t want to be a dumpling, and he wasn’t sure about the situation on the mountain or the strength of the monster beast to be killed. If he ended up trapped inside, he might never come out.
He frowned and thought, various ideas flashing in his mind.
Not until a random glint of light from between the swarm caught his eye, he finally came up with a plan.
