Chapter 270: Three Years Old (1/2)
After Feng Yuxiang returned to his body, Yuan sat down on the soft ground and began his cultivation.
The still atmosphere suddenly changed when Yuan started to absorb the spiritual energy in the air, and a small tornado appeared around him once again.
[+8,174 Qi]
[+8,412 Qi]
[+8,059 Qi]
Feng Yuxiang was greatly shocked when she saw this, as she'd just returned and didn't know about the Dragon Essence.
”What's happening? Did the Young Master consume a treasure that increased his cultivation speed?” Feng Yuxiang decided to ask Xiao Hua using her spiritual sense.
”Brother Yuan absorbed a Minor Dragon Essence, which gave him not only increased Soul Strength but also cultivation speed… I think.” Xiao Hua responded to her.
”What! Dragon Essence?! Soul Strength! That's the rarest property one can obtain from essences! How lucky!” Feng Yuxiang grew even more shocked after hearing this.
”Wait… Cultivation speed? I have never heard of essences giving such an effect before,” she suddenly realized.
”You may not know this, but Brother Yuan not only has the ability to consume monster cores. He can even obtain their abilities after consuming them. Perhaps it also applies to essences.”
”What! That's impos—”
Feng Yuxiang wanted to say that such a thing couldn't be possible, but after recalling Yuan's unfathomable talents and his legendary physique, she decided to not continue that sentence.
After a moment of silence, Xiao Hua suddenly spoke, ”Phoenix, you're a Divine Beast as well, right? Why don't you create some Phoenix Essence for Brother Yuan.”
”You make it sound like it's easy making essence…” Feng Yuxiang responded in a sighing voice.
”I also have my powers sealed, so I cannot do that in a reasonable amount of time. Perhaps once the curse is lifted, I will be able to create some Phoenix Essence for the Young Master, but in my current condition, that's impossible.”
Yuan cultivated in silence, not moving from that spot for ten hours straight.
At the end of the day, he'd obtained a little over 300 million Qi. In just two days, Yuan had managed to accumulate around 500 million Qi, which is enough Qi for someone at first level Spirit Apprentice to enter 4th level Spirit Warrior.
After he stopped cultivating, Yuan logged off the game to wait for Meixiu to return from school.
Sometime later, Meixiu returned home, cooked dinner, and began feeding Yuan.
”Yuan… Can I ask you why you decided to use this name?” Meixiu suddenly asked him.
”...”
After a moment of silence, Yuan said, ”That was my name before I was adopted.”
”Eh?”
Meixiu's eyes widened slightly from surprise. Now that she thought about it, she didn't know anything about Yuan's life before he was adopted into the Yu Family.
