Chapter 80: Chapter 78: Clear Spring Flowing Over the Rocks (Please Follow)
Translator: 549690339
No one knew how much time had passed when a figure finally emerged from
the pool.
“Woohoo-”
Zhao Huai’s head rose out of the water, his face full of unabated enjoyment.
While Yu Qinghan was lazily lying in the spring water, her smooth forehead covered with sweat, cheeks flushed, she gave him a slightly annoyed look.
“Now I understand why my husband is so energetic.”
Her voice was full of complaints.
Zhao Huai laughed out loud, obviously taking her remark as a compliment.
They both got up, got dressed, and used True Vigor to dry their clothes soaked with spring water.
Zhao Huai felt refreshed all over.
“Scoundrel! Scoundrel!”
Unexpectedly, a myna bird quickly flew by, as though scolding Zhao Huai.
“You damn bird, stop running!”
Zhao Huai was irritated, intending to catch it and smack it on the head, teaching this bird what can be said and what can’t.
He caught the myna bird, fluffed up its white static feathers.
Soon, he noticed something was wrong. The bird’s eyes were fixated in the distance with its beady eyes continually spinning around. Zhao Huai had experience with this and knew what it meant. “Hmm? Have you found another treasure?” This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.
Thus, in the next second, he let go of the myna bird.
The myna bird flapped its wings and quickly flew towards the mountains behind the hot spring.
Don’t bring back something weird again.
Zhao Huai thought, naturally not forgetting the previous Lantern Woman, which was quite a hassle.
So, he took out a copper coin and threw it up.
[Misfortune befalls those with fortune, let’s wait and see]
[Hexagram one: Bright moon shines between the pines, and clear spring flows over the rocks. Going into the rock cave, the guidance you gain is “fortune”.]
Trace Guidance: This object can be used for cultivation.
A clear spring flowing over the rocks is a rock cave?
And it can be used for cultivation, that’s indeed a valuable thing.
Zhao Huai paused but quickly stood mid-air and followed, calling out to Yu Qinghan below:
“Madam, stay close to me.”
Zhao Huai looked towards it, and sure enough, amidst the dense steam, there was a flickering red light.
That should be the thing pointed out by the copper coin.
Could it be, if he took this object, would it mean taking away the hot spring?
He couldn’t help but think about it.
If he could set up a hot spring at home to soak in whenever he wanted, he would, of course, be willing to.
Without any hesitation, Zhao Huai lunged forward to the edge where the red light source was found, discovering that it was a red spiritual stone of excellent quality.
As he pulled it out with force, a burst of spiritual Qi broke out.
The energy originally accumulated in the pond instantly retracted, like a black hole, sucking all the energy into the red spiritual stone.
The spiritual mist in front of him visibly disappeared.
The moment Zhao Huai pulled out the red spiritual stone, a colorful light flashed into his mind.
Unlike before, the seven colors were brilliant, belonging to no particular destiny grade.
A line of text appeared in his mind.
[Lucky opportunity, can upgrade a destiny of the Mysterious Grade] Seeing this line, Zhao Huai couldn’t help but be surprised.
Did he trigger some special condition again?
Just like triggering Misfortune into Blessing when he received the heavenly destiny grade.
If he chose to upgrade to a destiny of the Mysterious Grade, this would be a great improvement!
He was understandably excited, but he had to suppress his emotion for the moment, till he got back home.
Zhao Huai quickly returned to Yu Qinghan’s side with the red spiritual stone. Yu Qinghan looked at the blood-red stone and thought it seemed familiar.
“This seems to be a heavenly bloody spiritual stone.”
“Heavenly bloody spiritual stone?”
“Yes, a heavenly bloody spiritual stone is a type of spiritual stone. Though rare, its value is equivalent to top quality spiritual stone. In addition to serving as the core of the spirit-gathering formation, it also activates blood, enhances the activity of spiritual qi, and accelerates the speed of spiritual qi entering the cultivator’s body, influenced by the thread of heavenly blood within the stone.” Yu Qinghan explained in detail.
Zhao Huai understood: “No wonder, even being near it, I can feel the True Vigor in my body gradually increasing.”
Yu Qinghan pondered, “The development of a heavenly bloody spiritual stone generally requires strong origin energy, fermented over a long period. Could it be that someone has been here before?”
“That doesn’t matter anymore. We’ve got the treasure now,” Zhao Huai said with a grin.
“Good job, silly bird,” he praised the myna bird on his shoulder, feeding it a spiritual stone and stroking its little head.
Yet, the moment he touched it, the myna bird’s feathers ruffled up, effusively squawking:
“Knock you grandma! Knock you grandma!” Zhao Huai’s smile froze, fists clenching.
Even if the bird wasn’t his, he had picked it up.
It only ever spoke nicely to Madam, and towards him, it cussed!
Could he bear this?
