Chapter 960 – Changes in the Twig
Chapter 960 – Changes in the Twig
After obtaining the first piece of Qinggang stone, Xu Chuniang did not rush to cut it, casually placing it into the small world and continuing to mine the next piece.
The temperature in the stone mine was not much higher than the outside world.
Because the mine was connected to the outside world, the cold wind would pour in along the mine tunnel.
That was why she and Little White, had to excavate enough of the Green Gung Ho Stone before the Immortal Qi in her body was depleted.
The two of them worked with their heads covered, and for a while, there was no other sound in the mine other than the sound of chiseling stones.
It wasn’t until she had finished mining all of the greenoka stone in this mine, and had collected all of the greenoka stone and the two quarrying chisels into the small world, that Xu Chuniang left this place with Little White, returning to the mine path to look for the next mine.
In the mining tunnel, the two of them occasionally encountered other Immortals mining greenoka stone.
They wore thick fur coats and carried a huge basket on their backs as they traveled back and forth through the mine path.
Xu Chuniang noticed that the fur coats on most of the Immortals were very worn out, with many traces of mending.
There were only a very few decently dressed Immortals with handy tools in their hands.
Seeing that Xu Chuniang and Xiaobai were not wearing fur coats, nor did they have a basket on their backs, these people couldn’t help but look at them a few more times, but no one chatted with them.
Xu Chuniang was happy to keep a low profile, earlier she did not know, thought the quarrying chisel was not a valuable object, and casually showed it to others.
Until she found out that the vast majority of Immortals in the mine did not have a quarrying chisel, she realized that three hundred Immortal Crystals was not a small amount, and naturally she would not take it out with a big smile.
After finding another mining cave and mining in it for two to three hours, Xu Chuniang reminded Xiao Bai, “Let’s go, it’s time to go back.”
Xiao Bai was a bit puzzled, “In this mine, there are still a lot of Qinggang stones that can be mined, don’t you want to go back after mining all of them?”
“If we stay in the mine for too long and only get a little bit of greenoka stone, it would be a bit unreasonable.”
Xu Chuniang voiced her own deduction, “I found out that amongst the Immortals who mined the greenoka stone, there weren’t many who had storage Immortal Weapons.
We’re new here, and it’s easy for a raw face to be targeted, so it’s best not to reveal the secret that we have a small world on us.”
“I understand, so we mustn’t go out empty handed, it’s best to be like those people, get a bigger basket and carry a basket of greenoka stone on our backs ……”
Xiaobai suddenly realized, and then a little distressed, “But where to find a back basket?”
“Don’t worry, I have a way, you wait here for a moment, I’ll go and come back.”
Xu Chuniang smiled mysteriously, her figure suddenly disappeared.
Soon, her figure appeared in the same place, with a large, long tree branch in her hand.
Little White caught a familiar odor and stared at the branch for a while.
“What is this, why do I find it familiar? Could …… it be a twig?”
Xu Chuniang nodded with a smile, and after condensing the twig several times with her immortal qi to enhance its toughness, she proceeded to weave the back basket.
“These twigs, are precisely the ones plucked from the twigs, only now the twig, can no longer be a twig.
It’s rooted in the small world, and after growing in the small world for many years, it has grown into a heavenly tree, and its grade has also grown from a Houtian Spiritual Treasure, to a Half Immortal Grade.”
Little White was shocked and delighted, “Is the twig so powerful?”
Xu Chuniang smiled, a few hundred years ago, when she first went to the Demon Realm, the twig was still just a Houtian Spiritual Treasure.
It was unable to adapt to the environment of the Devil Realm, so she left it in the Small World.
Who knew that the twig liked the small world so much that it took root in it and grew bigger and bigger. The spiritual qi in the small world was already abundant, and the twig grew very quickly, but before it ascended, its grade was only at the innate level.
Until the time of ascension, when Xu Chuniang passed through the boundary lake, the aura in the walnut world was also transformed into immortal qi as much as possible.
At this time, the small world was filled with immortal qi, and had a bit of immortal weather.
The small walnut became a veritable “immortal seed”, and the small branch was watered by the immortal qi, once again advanced, breaking through to a half-immortal weapon in one fell swoop.
Xiao Bai heard secretly staggered, “No wonder when I left the boundary lake, I always feel something wrong, the water level in the lake seems to be shallow a cut, the original is the small walnut dry!”
Little Walnut couldn’t help but venture out to defend itself when it heard Little White say bad things about it.
“I didn’t do it on purpose! It was those Immortal Qi that were too overbearing, casually driving away the aura in my body and taking over again! Didn’t the same thing happen to you?”
Xu Chuniang explained, “When I ascended, those Dharma Domains I had condensed were about to collapse.
At that time, there were only two choices, one was to watch them collapse, and the other was to leave it all in the lower realms.
However, I didn’t choose either, and instead threw them all into the little walnut that was very eager for the power of the Laws.”
Little White suddenly realized, “I see, Little Walnut absorbed many law domains, replenished the power of laws already in his body, and also advanced to the immortal level.
The boundary lake recognized it, and only then did it replace the aura in the walnut’s time with immortal aura!”
“Precisely, the Mountain Soul who handed the Little Walnut over to me once said that the Little Walnut was an ‘Immortal Seed’, and I’m not surprised that the Little Walnut was able to grow to this point.”
“Immortal Seed, sounds so powerful.”
Little White’s eyes lit up, immediately thinking of a certain possibility, “Then can we cultivate in the Walnut World like before, or even live in it?”
“I’m afraid not.”
Xu Chuniang shook her head, “Although the little walnut has absorbed quite a bit of immortal qi, the walnut world is huge, and the immortal qi inside is even thinner than Zongdang Heaven.
Moreover, the little walnut and the twigs rooted in it also need Immortal Qi to use for growth, and at best, they can plant some low-ranked Immortal Grass Immortal Plants in it to earn Immortal Crystals.”
“I see, I was the one who thought too simply.”
Xiao Bai quickly realized that his thoughts were not realistic, picking up the branches on the ground, he followed Xu Chuniang’s example and began to weave a back basket.
After working for a short while, the two backbaskets were smoothly woven and looked decent.
Xu Chuniang tugged hard to make sure the basket was durable enough, then took out some large and small green stones and piled them in the basket.
Afterward, she and Xiaobai each picked up a basket and walked back along the mine path.
There were a lot of Immortals who mined greenstone, and after carrying the basket, the two of them were less conspicuous, and made their way smoothly out of the mining pit and back to their residence on the mountainside.
At this time it was nearly midnight, the sky was already dark.
Two people busy day, but do not feel tired, rely on in the dark also can see freely, and have the immortal qi transformed by the law to drive away the cold, began to process up the greenoka stone, will be cut into a flat and suitable size.
Xu Chuniang and Xiaobai are both novices, at the beginning of the cutting, always grasp the strength is not good, cut out of the stone is either the wrong size, or not flat enough.
After several failures, they realized that the Gong surname behind the old man’s movements, how much painstaking work is hidden.
