Chapter 478: Chapter 474: Spirit Plant_1

Yingbao: “Once I’ve finished opening the meridians for Nuannuan, Jiang Jie, and Jiang Wu, I’ll make a trip to the Immortal Cultivation World.”

Otherwise, they won’t have enough spiritual power for cultivation, and opening their meridians would be for naught indeed.

Xuanwu: “Very well.”

The master should indeed take a trip, for a fragment of the Divine Pupil is in possession of someone in that world. As long as it is retrieved, the master’s strength can be restored to 99%.

A month flashes by.

The spiritual medicines in the Divine Mansion gradually mature. Yingbao left behind a batch of seeds, began harvesting the medicinal materials, then followed the prescription to prepare the body-forging, meridian-opening tonic.

Opening the meridians is extremely painful. It involves using spiritual power to clear all the spirit veins in one’s body, allowing the spiritual energy to flow smoothly, and finally condensing one’s spiritual root in the upper, middle and lower dantians.

Yingbao initially feared that her daughter would not be able to endure the pain, but when she infused her with her own spiritual power, she gritted her teeth and persevered without uttering a word.

“Eighty-one spirit veins! Truly my daughter!” Yingbao joyfully discovered that her daughter was able to open eighty-one spirit veins in one go.

Even in the Immortal Cultivation World, those who could open eighty-one spirit veins at their first attempt were among the top talents, with the potential to reach the Golden Immortal level in the future.

Wei Zhan, on the other hand, only managed to form twenty-four spirit veins after three days. If he cultivates successfully, he could potentially reach the Spirit Transformation level and extend his lifespan to over two thousand years.

Once the spirit veins were opened, Nuannuan’s eyes sparkled with golden light, which took a long time to recede.

“Mother, I feel like I can fly!” Nuannuan exultantly stood up from the bath, waved her hands, and the water in the pool started to spiral around her, like a water dragon frolicking around the little girl.

Yingbao was slightly taken aback. Her daughter had actually advanced past the Mortal World and entered the Qi Cultivation stage.

Wei Zhan, who had been soaking himself in the Holy Spirit Water for more than two months, only entered the Qi Cultivation stage a couple of days ago.

Yingbao touched her daughter’s forehead and transmitted the heritage of her Golden Dragon Clan into her mind: “Follow your instinct, sense the divine power, and practice controlling it.”

Nuannuan levitated in a seated position, closing her eyes to feel the Divine Mansion space within her body.

Since she was a child, she had awakened her divine dragon bloodline and formed her own Divine Mansion space. Now that her spirit veins were open, she could use the divine power within the Divine Mansion.

She drew out the divine power from within her Divine Mansion to strengthen her body’s meridians. When the divine power was insufficient, she directly absorbed spiritual energy to replace it, inhaling and exhaling in a complete great cycle.

Yingbao stood guard at her daughter’s side, until after several hours Nuannuan woke up.

She was now covered in a layer of greasy dirt, and her cultivation level had risen to the second layer of Qi cultivation.

Yingbao waved her hand and conjured a cleaning spell, instantly making her daughter clean.

Nuannuan hugged her mother tightly, triumphant: “Mother, can I learn spells now?”

“You can.” Yingbao passed on all the spells she knew to Nuannuan, admonishing her: “You must not use spells casually in public. If you want to practice, you can go to your own Divine Mansion.”

Nuannuan obediently nodded: “I understand, Mother, I’m not foolish. I will definitely not use spells in public.”

Yingbao ruffled her daughter’s hair, leading her out of the cultivation room.

Eight-year-old Wumei was squatting in the courtyard outside the cultivation room, weeding the flowers. Seeing Nuannuan and their aunt come out, he grinned, displaying a mouthful of little white teeth: “Hello, Auntie! Nuannuan, come and see, I brought back a flower from outside and planted it here.”

He pointed at a twisted vine in front of him: “It’s called a winter jasmine. It’s one of the earliest to bloom in spring. I’m planting it now, so by next spring you and Auntie will be able to see it.”

Nuannuan blinked, suddenly wanting to try and make the flower bloom just like her mother did. But thinking of her mother’s orders, she held back.

Yingbao bent down to take a look. Indeed, it was a winter jasmine. “Where did you dig it up from?”

Wumei: “It was given to me by a classmate.” Now Wumei was studying at a reputable school outside the Princess Residence. Each day, he was escorted there and back by the Princess Residence guards.

Yingbao nodded, not saying a word.

A few days later, Jiang Wu and Jiang Jie arrived in Zhouhe County from Beijing, accepting their sister’s help to activate their Spirit Veins.

In the end, Jiang Wu activated sixty-four veins, while Jiang Jie could only activate thirty.

Afterwards, Yingbao infused Holy Spirit Water into the bath and instructed her two younger brothers to circulate Dazhou within it.

Two days later, Jiang Wu stepped into the Qi Cultivation realm, whereas Jiang Jie showed no signs of progress.

Seeing Jiang Jie’s dejected demeanor, Yingbao encouraged him, “With effort and dedication, even an iron rod can be ground into a needle. Don’t be disheartened, it took your brother-in-law more than two months to break through.” It was only after breaking through that they could possibly step onto the Immortal Path.

Jiang Jie nodded, “Then I will try to cultivate here for a month.” He was determined to learn how to cultivate, so he could pass this knowledge onto his children when they grew up.

Yes, Jiang Jie’s children could already walk, and there was another one on the way in his wife’s womb.

In the following days, Yingbao saw her younger brother Jiang Wu along with Wei Zhan and Nuannuan busily tending to the plants and flowers in the courtyard, or secretly playing with fire in a corner of the yard.

Ever since Wei Zhan awakened his Fire Spiritual Root, he would periodically light lanterns for Yingbao, or light lamps in Nuannuan’s rooms, creating interesting shapes to entertain his daughter.

Yingbao let them be, while she discussed her plans to visit the Fairy World with Xuanwu.

Her husband, daughter, and brothers were now capable of defending themselves in this world. However, relying solely on the spiritual power of the Holy Spirit Water wouldn’t take them far, so she must bring a Spirit Vein to this world.

As long as the Spirit Vein existed in this world, it would not be a problem for Jiang Wu and Wei Zhan to cultivate until they formed a Nascent Soul.

She did not want to see her loved ones age and eventually disappear one by one.

Xuanwu: “Then you should pack food and survival gear to avoid repeating our previous mistakes.”

“No problem, this time I’m even bringing a stove and a cowhide tent,” Yingbao had prepared a lot of things for herself this time, including essentials, food, and even some gold, silver, and jade.

These valuables could be useful if she ended up in the Mortal World within the Immortal Cultivation World.

Yingbao left a letter for her husband, then lied down on the bed.

Everything went dark, and when she opened her eyes again, the scenery around her had changed.

“Did we reincarnate again?” asked Yingbao.

Xuanwu: “What else?”

Yingbao: “Is there a problem with our identities?” The Immortal Cultivation World was not like the Mortal World – there were ways to expose reincarnated individuals and treat them as parasitic cultivators.

“No issue with the identity, you are currently the daughter of a common family in Xuanyuan City. You were out of the city with companions looking for spiritual medicines when you were hit by a Demonic Beast. At present, you have four broken ribs, a fractured left arm, and you are hanging on an ancient tree at the edge of a cliff.”

Yingbao looked down and saw nothing beyond the fog beneath her feet.

She looked up to see the steep cliff. With a broken arm, it was impossible for her to climb up.

Even if she could, she wouldn’t dare as the demonic beast could still be nearby.

Yingbao swallowed a Five-Ding Zhi, then retreated into her Divine Mansion. After drawing the Holy Spirit Water into a bath and sitting in meditation, she began to recover slowly from her injuries.

Two hours later, Yingbao opened her eyes, dressed herself, put on shoes, and looked around after leaving the Divine Mansion.

The robust cliff pine that held her was luxuriant, with vines resembling ivy entwined around it.

Yingbao tugged at the vines, finding them strong. They would make good ropes if she needed any.

But she merely thought as much, not intending to use these vines as actual ropes because she had several rolls of ropes in her Divine Mansion.

However, it appeared there were several fist-sized fruits hanging on the vines. Although they were not fully ripe, they were glowing with a spiritual light, much stronger than the spiritual medicine planted in her Divine Mansion.

It was a great find; the plant must be at least a mid-level Spirit Plant.
