Chapter 500
(500 words, thank you to all the readers who have accompanied me to this chapter)
"Lord Liuyun, please try this spiritual fruit... Also, my clone has gathered a Cleansing Spiritual Flower, which I'll give to this lord..."
The giant slug gave the spirit fruit offered by the white ape to Liuyun, and a small slug also gave Nanami a spirit flower.
"Eat it yourself!"
Liu Yun smiled and declined its offer.
"How can this be? You two have traveled a long way to the Wet Bone Forest, I must treat you well..." The giant slug insisted that Liu Yun accept the spiritual item.
Liu Yun couldn't refuse it, and in the end, he had no choice but to accept the spiritual object.
"This flower is called the Purifying Spirit Flower? What are its effects if you eat it?" Liu Yun asked curiously, looking at the white spirit flower in Nanami's hand.
"As the name suggests, the Cleansing Spirit Flower is used to purify the body. Eating this flower can expel toxins accumulated in the body, making living beings healthier. It is said that this flower is most loved by women. Tsunade orders one Cleansing Spirit Flower every year because it has magical effects on beauty and skin care..."
The giant slug carefully explained the effects of the spirit flower, and Liu Yun hurriedly borrowed a small slug from the giant slug to go to the Divine Might Space to identify the flowers and plants.
He collected so many spiritual roots in the Wet Bone Forest. Some of the flowers and plants may seem to have spiritual properties, but they may actually contain poison or have side effects. He didn't dare to give them to his family to eat because he didn't understand the effects of these spiritual roots.
Take the Cleansing Flower as an example. Although it has the amazing effects of detoxifying and beautifying the skin and is loved by women, it can cause severe diarrhea as a side effect. The giant slug also proactively reminded people of this.
"And what about this spiritual fruit? What are its effects?" Liu Yun asked again, holding the bright red spiritual fruit in his hand.
"This spiritual fruit contains spiritual energy, and like most spiritual flowers and herbs, it has the effect of enhancing Sage Chakra."
Hearing that it didn't have any particularly special effects, Liu Yun simply tossed the spirit fruit to his daughter, letting the little glutton have a taste.
Nanami wasn't interested in the detoxifying and beautifying spirit flower; instead, she stared at the spirit fruit for a while... clearly, she was just craving it...
The spirit fruit was sweet and delicious with a rich aroma. Nanami's eyes lit up immediately. This was the first time she had ever eaten such a delicious fruit!
"Sweet and juicy, this fruit is delicious! Dad, you should try some too!"
After taking another bite, she handed the remaining half of the fruit to her father, clearly wanting to share this rare delicacy with Liuyun.
"If you like it, just eat the whole thing..." Liu Yun patted her head and laughed.
"No, it's so delicious, Daddy, you have to try some too..." Nanami insisted on sharing with him, even though she had already eaten half of the fruit...
Liu Yun shook his head and chuckled, then, not minding his daughter's drool, he popped half a fruit into his mouth in one bite.
"Yes, it's sweet and refreshing, juicy, and contains rich, easily absorbed natural energy. It's truly a rare spiritual fruit." Liu Yun also gave this spiritual fruit a very high evaluation.
He even had the urge to pack up and take the spirit fruit tree from the white ape's territory with him...
However, he ultimately did not do so. After all, he was not a robber and could not just rob anything he saw that was good. He seized territory to create a place with abundant natural energy for other old friends or descendants of the human race to cultivate immortality, not for his own sake.
"If this spirit seed is carefully cultivated, could it produce equally delicious spirit fruit?" Liu Yun spat the fruit pit into his hand and asked the giant slug for advice.
"Yes, this fruit is called the Red Spirit Fruit. The tree grew from the spirit fruit pit that the monkeys ate. It's about 380 years old. If I remember correctly, this tree only bears fruit once every three years, and each time it only produces a dozen or so fruits..."
As a giant slug with numerous clones and an extremely long lifespan, it knows the entire Shikkotsu Forest like the back of its hand. It might not be familiar with every single plant and tree in the entire sacred land, but it probably knows them all pretty well...
Liu Yun was very satisfied with the positive reply. He planned to plant the spirit seed in the Divine Might Small World so that he could reap good rewards in the future!
After chatting with the giant slug about spiritual roots for quite some time, Liu Yun told the giant slug the purpose of his visit to the Wet Bone Forest:
"We have come here to seek the Dharma, and we hope that the immortals will teach us!"
The lifespan of the Great Slug Immortal far exceeds that of the Great Toad Immortal. Even now, it shows no signs of aging. Its immortal techniques and cultivation experience are extremely valuable, and Liu Yun is eager to obtain cultivation knowledge from the Great Slug Immortal.
"Do you want to learn immortal techniques? You can!"
The giant slug immortal readily agreed, after all, as Liuyun's spirit beast, it was naturally willing to pass on the immortal's methods to its spirit beast master.
The reason why Liu Yun took Nanami with him to visit the three holy lands was mainly to have her sign a spirit contract with the three holy lands and personally experience the similar immortal techniques within the three holy lands!
His daughter's talent for cultivating immortality was not much worse than his, her father's. Sometimes she could even offer some insights into cultivation that would enlighten Liu Yun. This was the main reason why Liu Yun wanted to bring her along when he sought the Dharma!
"Both of you possess extremely large amounts of Sage Chakra within your bodies, so learning my Sage Techniques should be quite easy for you..."
For the next few days, the father and daughter stayed by the side of the Great Slug Immortal, listening to its teachings. The Great Slug Immortal did not hold back, and it imparted all its insights into the path of immortality and its experience in cultivating immortality to Liuyun.
As a supreme powerhouse who has surpassed the Six Paths level, he can find the correct cultivation direction in the immortal methods of different races, and a 'cultivation immortal path' that fits the human physique is also rapidly taking shape in his mind!
Nine days passed in the blink of an eye. Liu Yun remembered that he had to go to Mount Myōboku to take over the new territory, and that he also had a newborn baby at home who needed help taking care of him, so he bid farewell to the Great Slug Sage.
Before leaving, the Great Slug Immortal allowed Liu Yun to bring people here to cultivate, expressing its willingness to protect humans who came to Shikkotsu Forest to cultivate...
However, Liu Yun did not want to trouble the loving mother of the Wet Bone Forest too much. He only asked the Great Slug Immortal for a corner of the wilderness where there was no miasma.
He acquired two plots of land, Mount Myōboku and Shikkotsu Forest, primarily because he was drawn to the abundant natural energy of these sacred mountains and blessed lands. Cultivating immortal techniques here would be much easier than outside, and living in such spiritually rich places for an extended period, without any danger, could even extend a human's life by three to five years...
Of course, if one enters his divine power miniature world, ordinary people can even live for twenty years longer. It's just a pity that his divine power miniature world is not open to outsiders, and even if it were, it would be impossible for outsiders to live there for a long time!
