Chapter 323: Chapter 323
Inside the Delusional Tavern, Si Yan, having received the gift of Beast God blood from Jin Kun, returned to her room on the second floor. After placing the Beast God blood in a specially prepared area of her space, she took a walk around within it.
Vast tracts of land were filled with carrots, white radishes, sweet potatoes, potatoes, lettuce, and strawberries. Many other plants also thrived there, each growing exceptionally sturdy and strong. For origınal chapters go to NoveIFire.net
The fruits of Beast World were already larger than those from her previous life, and those within her space were even bigger still.
Si Yan dug up a white radish and casually washed it in the nearby stream before taking a loud, crunchy bite.
Delicious! This is...
"Spirit Plant, Spirit Fruit," Old Gecko said with a smile. "Grandchild, the fruits in your space have grown into Spirit Fruits. The beasts that eat these Spirit Plants and Spirit Fruits have also become Spirit Beasts."
Si Yan jolted. Spirit Beasts? They aren’t going to turn into Beastmen, are they?
Old Gecko replied, "Not at all, but their meat does taste better, and eating it would strengthen the body and improve one’s Beast Power cultivation."
Si Yan had just taken a bite of the radish and felt a cool sensation spreading through her body, refreshing and pleasant. Even her Special Ability had grown a little.
"These Spirit Plants, Spirit Fruits, and Spirit Meat are full of spiritual energy. They contain very few impurities, aiding in cultivation and purifying the body."
Looking at the abundant fruits, vegetables, and livestock, Si Yan said joyfully, With so many Spirit Plants and Spirit Fruits, we should dig them up and share with everyone.
Not only could she feed her own people, but they also offered an opportunity for business development. For instance, it was no longer enough to simply sell liquor at the tavern. She could totally use wild game to make broth, adding a slice of Spirit Plant radish to enhance its flavor and infuse it with spiritual energy. That could fetch a lot more money. She could even develop a chain of stores, providing the recipes to each franchise. Each recipe would include a slice of Spirit Energy radish. She could grow and strengthen her business, becoming the wealthiest in Beast World! To be a Sage means to bear responsibilities and serve the people. But to be the richest means I get to count money every day—how sweet would that be!
Thinking so, she saw a future full of promise!
With these thoughts, she picked a big basket of plump white radishes and took them out.
She carried the basket of white radishes to the kitchen, where Tai Seng hurried over to help her with it.
Jin Tong emerged from the side and was stunned to see so many white ground fruits.
When did Number Six go out to gather white ground fruits, and how come I hadn’t noticed? Could it be Tai Seng’s doing? Indeed, these suitors are always looking to show off.
With that thought, Jin Tong also went over to help.
Jin Tong took a white ground fruit out of the basket to wash and soon detected something was off.
He picked up the white ground fruit and sniffed it closely.
Eating Spirit Plants is one of the traditional cultivation methods of the Golden Dragon Beastmen, so they collect Volcano Fruits and many other Spirit Fruits rich in spiritual energy. There are even a few exceptional Beastmen who can grow their own Spirit Plants and Spirit Fruits. But growing Spirit Plants and Spirit Fruits is very difficult. A slight mistake could lead them to wither from drought or flood. Thus, the vast majority of Spirit Fruits are gathered in the wild.
This type of thing is extremely valuable. A Spirit Fruit brimming with spiritual energy could usually be exchanged for ten Purple Insect Crystals. Only a few Beastmen with significant wealth could afford them.
Jin Tong had eaten quite a few Spirit Fruits. However, Number Six’s white ground fruit smelled very much like a Spirit Fruit, and its spiritual energy seemed even more abundant than those few cultivated ones.
Jin Tong sniffed it, then put down the white ground fruit and picked up others to sniff.
They’re all Spirit Fruits, all of them! Where did Tai Seng find so many Spirit Fruits?!
Without holding back, Jin Tong directly asked, "Tai Seng, where did you dig up all these Spirit Fruits?"
Tai Seng was caught off guard, and Si Yan said, "They weren’t dug up by Tai Seng. I grew them myself."
To be more precise, I provided the space, and Old Gecko, the old farmer, helped with the cultivation. But she couldn’t reveal Old Gecko, so she simply claimed that she had grown them herself.
"What, you grew these?"
Jin Tong was stunned. He knew that Number Six was impressive, but he had never imagined that Number Six could actually cultivate Spirit Fruits.
Those who plant Spirit Plants usually don’t tell others where their spirit fields are, because those fields represent their entire fortune. So, Jin Tong didn’t ask further.
Jin Tong’s eyes sparkled as he looked at Si Yan. "Sis, you can even grow these? You’re really amazing! Do you know how much this white ground fruit can sell for? Last time in the Golden Dragon Clan, someone offered ten Purple Insect Crystals just to buy one Spirit Fruit. One fruit is ten Purple Insect Crystals. Ten fruits is one Golden Insect Crystal!"
Jin Tong looked at the big basket of white ground fruits, his eyes virtually popping with images of Golden Insect Crystals and Purple Insect Crystals!
How could our Number Six be poor? She’s a nouveau riche, absolutely a nouveau riche!
Tai Seng, who had never tasted Spirit Plants before, was utterly baffled.
Spirit Fruit? What is a Spirit Fruit?
He picked up a white ground fruit and sniffed it, his silver eyes dilating.
My god, this smells so good, I really want to eat it!
Si Yan took out a ceramic jar and said with a smile, "The kids haven’t come back yet, so when they do, we’ll use these to cook. For now, I plan to pickle some of the white ground fruit. Can you help me?"
Jin Tong asked, "Are we just going to eat them ?"
The two males readily agreed, "Alright!" "Okay!"
So many white ground Spirit Fruits were being turned into food. Only a nouveau riche like Number Six could afford such a luxury. After all, she could grow them herself!
Si Yan cut the white radishes into pieces, placed them in the ceramic jar, poured in a little saltwater, covered the jar, and sealed it tight.
After finishing all these tasks, Si Yan suddenly felt a foreboding premonition.
She looked towards the sky, frowning slightly.
The water monster was too strong.
Jin Kun’s fire simply couldn’t contend with the vast amount of water the water monster possessed.
He roared, "Jin Yang, I’ll hold it off, you save the kids!!"
Jin Kun exerted all his strength.
Jin Yang fortified his tail, swung it with force, and plunged it into the massive waves to scoop out Bei Ji.
Once Jin Yang had Bei Ji, he roared loudly, "Run!"
The disheveled Bei Ji lay on his back.
Jin Yang bent down to hoist a few kids onto his back. Jin Kun immediately did the same, picking up the remaining two kids that Jin Yang couldn’t carry.
The two Golden Dragons flew directly towards Myriad Beasts City.
"Head to Myriad Beasts City! I refuse to believe that water monster would dare enter the city!" Jin Kun gritted his teeth.
However, the water monster actually came ashore and pursued them.
It really wants to get into the city?! Jin Kun was shocked.
Si Yan stepped out of her room. She stared at the sky, focusing. What’s happening outside?
Old Gecko spoke with surprise, Strange, why would there be a water monster? Has it really come out?
"Water monster? The one the Grey Parrot Sage mentioned?" Si Yan, sensing something wrong, blurted out, Not good, the kids are by the water!
With her belly so large, Jin Tong couldn’t let Si Yan take risks. He immediately said, "Don’t worry, Si Yan, I’ll go and save them."
Without another word, Jin Tong transformed into a dragon and flew out the door.
He was the children’s Fifth Uncle, and he absolutely could not allow anything to happen to them!
Watching Jin Tong leave, the uneasy feeling in Si Yan’s heart became even more pronounced. She knew it was a premonition.
Old Gecko said, "Grandchild, don’t rush. Jin Tong is already on his way. The kids should be fine."
Si Yan asked, "Old Gecko, isn’t this Beast World? How can there be a water monster? What exactly is a water monster?"
