Chapter 70 – Forested HillsLeyvi saw a tiny hole at the bottom of the dried Spiritual Energy Spring. He immediately explored the tiny hole using his spiritual sense. It continued downward to a very small and narrow path the size of a needle.
As Leyvi explored the tiny hole, he noticed the naturally formed Liquid Qi was slowly rising from it. Could it be there's more? Leyvi guessed.
Soon, Leyvi's spiritual sense reached the end of the narrow hole and found a shining silver orb the size of a coconut. What is that? A treasure? Leyvi was immediately excited.
Leyvi quickly summoned Stripey from the Spirit Beast Bag. "Stripey, there's an orb 500 meters directly below this spot. Grab it." Leyvi instructed as he pointed to a spot.
"Umm, yes Boss!" He went to the spot and extended his hands downward. Stripey can now grab things a kilometer away without seeing them. He just needs to know the direction.
A moment later, a shining silver orb appeared on Stripey's hands but it fell to the ground immediately. The orb sank into the ground halfway.
"Umm Boss, this ball is so heavy!" Stripey exclaimed. Thankfully it didn't fall on his foot.
"Hahaha! You are just too weak. Maybe you need to train more. If you get stronger you can catch criminals by yourself you know." Leyvi laughed at Stripey. He was probably the weakest demonic beast he had ever met.
Leyvi bent his body and tried to pick up the orb. However, it didn't budge at all.
"Emmmmmppphhhhh!!!!...Emmmmmmmppppphhhhh!!!" Leyvi tried with both hands this time but still failed to lift it.
"Umm Boss, maybe you need to train more," Stripey said innocently.
Leyvi's eyebrow twitched. This small monkey actually held a grudge and used my words against me. Good thing Anda and Lilian can't understand Stripey or they would have laughed at me.
"Hahahaha! Hahahaha!" Mr. Bison laughed at Leyvi. Anda and Lilian were surprised by the sudden snorting noises coming from Mr. Bison.
Dammit! I forgot this lawn mower can understand! Leyvi was embarrassed. He focused on the orb again and wondered why this thing was so heavy. It is not budging a single bit. Leyvi then tried to move it directly to the internal storage room but it failed too. What is going on?
"Uh, Anda, I can't move it at all. You try." Leyvi passed the task. Maybe the orb likes women more. It was not impossible. Leyvi thought of the airship situation.
Leyvi's guess was wrong. Anda couldn't lift the orb or transfer it into the space bag.
"What do we do now?" Leyvi pondered what they should do.
The shining silver orb was obviously the source of the natural liquid Qi and without a doubt, an extremely precious treasure but it would be useless if they couldn't bring it along. Should they leave it here and come again later? Or let Stripey continuously use his ability to bring it into the carriage? What if this orb destroys the carriage?
While Leyvi was stressing about the solutions, Lilian was curious about the orb so she bent over and tried to pick it up.
The next scene made everyone dumbfounded.
Lilian cheerfully picked up the orb and waved it around.
"It's light!" Lilian sent a sound transmission to everyone who was still frozen.
After a moment of silence, Leyvi broke the silence and said, "I know what's going on! This orb must be a pervert. It liked women with huge milkers."
Anda nodded a few times. She somewhat agreed with Leyvi's conclusion. "Since this orb produces natural liquid Qi, it must have thought Lilian's milkers as one of its own, look, their size are the same." She analyzed.
"True true. No doubt anymore. Anda is so smart!" Leyvi replied.
Stripey and Mr. Bison did not react, they were not interested in the human body. They wanted female monkeys or female bison respectively.
Lilian blushed heavily from Leyvi and Anda's comments. What were they saying? These two always act weird together. Although she didn't know why she could lift it easily, it was definitely not because of her mil-breast! Lilian almost used the weird word.
After that, Lilian tried to store the orb in the space bag, but like Leyvi and Anda previously, it didn't work. Lilian thought about storing it in her Goddess of Fertility Garden and surprisingly, it worked! Finally!
When they saw the orb disappear from Lilian's hands, Leyvi and Anda looked at each other and quickly celebrated. Leyvi spun Anda around with joy. Leyvi put Anda down and lifted Lilian next, after all, he can't be partial. However, the feeling was different as Leyvi felt the intense jiggle from Lilian.
Stripey and Mr. Bison were already away from them looking at the dead lizard. They were not interested in the interactions of this weird family.
After they were done celebrating, Lilian told them that the orb that entered the garden immediately sunk into the ground and created a new spring. From now on, their family will have an unlimited supply of natural liquid Qi!
"This shining silver orb is the first true treasure we found as a family!" Anda said happily. She rubbed the radar in her hand gently.
Little Fiery inside Anda cried. Master, am I not the first treasure?
"Alright, it's time to move. They must have been worried outside." Leyvi said. He walked to the dead demonic lizard and stored the body.
"Boss can I have the high-level demonic core?" Mr. Bison requested. This was their first high-level demonic core, so he was very tempted to consume it.
Leyvi didn't answer right away, he turned to Anda and asked first, "Anda, is there any alchemy product you can make using high-level demonic core?"
Anda shook her head. "From the Alchemy Formulas I have right now, no. What I have now all came from the Mountain Dew Sect. Later, we need to start collecting new Alchemy Formulas for the future."
"Okay, since Anda doesn't need it, you can take it," Leyvi told Mr. Bison. Although Leyvi always scolded him for being lazy, he did contribute a lot in the end, so he wasn't going to be stingy.
"Thank you Boss! I love you so much!" Mr. Bison tried to act like a cute pet in front of Leyvi.
"Go away!" Leyvi kicked his butt.
As they walked, Leyvi inquired Anda about the alchemy formula.
"Does the Mountain Dew Sect not have a single tier 4 alchemy formula?"
"They probably have some, but nobody was capable of using them for a long time so they probably locked them somewhere. However, we can't rely on this possibility too much so we better find the formulas ourselves. This Alchemy Conference is the best place and time to do that." Anda replied.
"Alright, you don't have to worry about that. Layla and I will take care of this. You can just concentrate on the conference." Leyvi reassured Anda.
Leyvi and the battle team returned to the carriage happily. Leyvi showed them the Demonic Komodo Dragon they had slain. They were surprised to see such a big demonic beast, multiple times bigger than Mr. Bison.
Leyvi took out the demonic core from the carcass and gave it to Mr. Bison. The high-level demonic core was yellow in color and as big as a grown human's head.
Mr. Bison swallowed the demonic core and started to refine it.
Leyvi and the party camped there that night while waiting for Mr. Bison to finish the refinement.
He had distributed the Natural Liquid Qi to everyone who reached the Foundation Building realm and higher to experience the effect themselves.
Unfortunately, those who were still in the Qi Refinement realm couldn't enjoy this treasure for the same reason they couldn't use the spirit stones. Their dantian couldn't handle the Qi yet. To make them feel better, Anda gave extra Qi Refining pills as a bonus.
The Natural Liquid Qi can be used by drinking it like normal water or be absorbed like how a spirit stone is consumed for cultivation.
Drinking it could elevate one's thirst, and the Qi would strengthen the body to a certain extent.
Unfortunately for Leyvi, his body had become way too strong for this effect to act on him. However, for Anda, Lilian, Valenia, Layla, and Hana, their body had strengthened 2-3 times more than what they had previously.
As for the cultivating effect, it was almost 20 times faster than using a low-grade spirit stone. This meant Leyvi and the others could reach the Core Formation realm almost 20 times faster now.
The next day, Mr. Bison had finished refining the high-level demonic core and his body grew slightly bigger. Leyvi estimated that Mr. Bison was now halfway through the intermediate level. This progress was very fast for a demonic beast.
Once again, Leyvi's party resumed their journey. They went back to the river and moved according to the original path. Searᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
5 days later, they were finally out of the Sword Grave Canyon and entered a forested hills area.
After they go past these forested hills, they would reach the Holy Cat City.
In the afternoon, Leyvi's carriages entered a mortal town at the foot of a nearby hill, however, it seemed to be deserted.
