Chapter 111: Chapter 111: Foundation Establishment Pill Success, Quickly Return to the Clan!
"Ice Soul Cold Light!"
Li Quanqing sat cross-legged on the beach, holding an ice blue feather, constantly absorbing the extreme cold Spiritual Energy contained within it, slowly cultivating.
Nine strands of crystal-clear cold light circled and danced around his body, seemingly beautiful yet containing astonishing danger.
A layer of frost spread across the sand, the coldness surging eerily, while the nearby seawater began to form fine ice fragments, the churning slowing down considerably.
"Ow-meow~"
In such a frigid environment, other Spiritual Beasts disliked it, but only the Cloud-Stepping Snow Leopard lay comfortably on the thick ice layer, its fur covered in a layer of frost.
"Ow... meow!"
It lazily rubbed against the cold air emanating from the ice blue feather, deeply inhaling and exhaling for cultivation, the ice flakes mixed within its fur sparkling under the sunlight.
The leopard felt as if it had returned to the endless ice plains, utterly relaxed, its amber eyes shining with bursts of ice blue light, its fuzzy ears twitching back and forth.
"Ow-roar~"
The tiger’s roar shook the forest, the branches rustling.
The Golden Flame Tiger ran from the mountains of the islands to the beach, its vigorous fur burning like golden red flames, its size once again increased.
This fellow was in the rapid growth phase of its youth, gaining strength incredibly quickly; it broke through the second layer of Qi Refinement just two days after ingesting an Elixir, smugly strutting around.
"Ow-meow!"
"Ow-roar!"
The two large cats communicated across the forest, their fur quivering, tails swaying back and forth, both appearing to be in good spirits.
Li Quanqing exhaled a breath of icy scrap-laden turbid air, slowly condensing the tenth strand of Ice Soul Cold Light, and then gathered it all into his Dantian for nourishment.
The ice feather in his hand was still wrapped in a thick layer of ice, containing vast and magnificent coldness, as though hardly any of it had been used up.
He opened his eyes, coldness swirling in the depths of his pupils, and turned his head to look at the tiger cub, not knowing what the fellow wanted from him.
"Ow-ow!"
The Golden Flame Tiger trotted over, its fluffy big paws touching down and releasing a ring of golden red flames that rapidly melted the ice on the beach.
It was clear that it disliked this kind of freezing environment, more suited to the scorching heat of the desert.
"Ow-meow!!"
The Cloud-Stepping Snow Leopard let out a dissatisfied growl, its body surrounded by a whirling Demon Energy, jets of cold air bursting forth, recondensing and spreading the ice layer.
Fire clashed with ice, hissing, and streams of steam wafted up, turning into mist that drifted around the sandy beach.
Li Quanqing, having no choice, put away the ice blue feather, and walked towards the tiger cub.
"Ow-ow!"
The Golden Flame Tiger roared a few more times, affectionately rubbing its head against its master, and then took out several colorful, speckled bird eggs from the Storage Bag.
"This is... the multicolored chickens have laid eggs?"
Li Quanqing picked up one, much larger than a normal chicken egg, the size of a goose egg, with a rough shell shimmering with a five-colored pattern.
Since they were not fertilized, only considered inanimate, they could be stored in the Storage Bag.
"Roar-roar!"
The Golden Flame Tiger displayed them proudly, exhaling a burst of intense flame, which cooked one of the eggs in the blink of an eye.
It cracked it open with its big claw, revealing the white egg white and the solidified yolk, a fragrance surging out.
"Ow-meow!"
The Snow Leopard growled, keeping its throat pressed, and walked over with restraint.
It appeared to hold its chin up high, but in reality, its gray-blue pupils kept staring at the cooked egg, its throat bobbing as it swallowed saliva.
Li Quanqing realized that despite its aloof exterior, this creature was also a total glutton.
"Eat up, no fighting."
Li Quanqing split the cooked egg in two, feeding the two cats, who savored it deliciously.
The Golden Flame Tiger growled unhappily, guarding its food, hugging the rest of the multicolored eggs in its paws.
Li Quanqing released a strand of Sky Blue Fire, and took out a cast iron pan and grease, making two servings of fried eggs, sprinkled with fragrant seasonings.
These were much tastier than the roasted eggs, golden and shiny, with an enticing aroma and color.
The Golden Flame Tiger devoured several portions contentedly, finally flapping its little wings to indicate it was full.
"The taste is indeed good."
Li Quanqing also ate a portion, specially making a soft-boiled egg, with half-set golden liquid that melted in the mouth.
Swallowed down, it spread a warm flow throughout his body, speeding up the flow of Mana in his meridians.
"Spirit chicken eggs are truly different!"
Li Quanqing, accompanied by the Golden Flame Tiger, walked into the woods of Fish-Dragon Island.
Ever since he bought these multicolored chickens home, he hadn’t paid much attention to them.
"Giggle-dah!"
Among the forest, five Spirit Chickens had already built warm and comfortable nests, lazily basking in the sun. 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Occasionally, when they spotted bugs crawling in the soil in front of them, they would dart out their heads with lightning speed and feast heartily.
[I Love the Sun]Multicolored Chicken: "The sun shines overhead, the flowers smile at me, life is so beautiful~"
[Cultivation Level: Qi Refinement first layer (88%)]
Li Quanqing patted the five Spiritual Chickens, all of which were female, a result of Sword Treasure Pavilion’s deliberate control.
Male chickens as breeding stock were generally very precious and rarely sold to the outside.
Boom boom boom!
In the distant mountains and forests, suddenly a bolt of lightning exploded, and one could vaguely see an agile Spiritual Beast leap by, clad in Vine Armor, with electricity erratically zapping all over its body.
"These Vine Wood Apes, why did they go and provoke the Thunder Horn Pythons?"
Li Quanqing climbed Purple Thunder Peak and immediately saw a circle of young Thunder Horn Pythons coiling under the Thunder Peach Tree, their scales flaring as they took an aggressive stance.
"Squeak squeak!"
The little monkey, Yuan Douzhan, stood there grinning, holding a straight Thunder Peach Wood stick in its hand, excitedly scurrying up and down.
Electric arcs exploded among the Spiritual Ape’s fur, some of the monkey hair even turning burnt black, but the joy couldn’t be concealed.
"So it got new equipment!"
Watching the little monkey skillfully swing the peach wood staff, Li Quanqing couldn’t help but laugh.
With monkeys present, how could there be a lack of peach trees?
He took out a few peach pits from his Storage Bag, all leftovers from eating Thunder Spirit Peaches previously, deliberately kept aside, and now he handed them over to the Vine Wood Ape to plant on Green Bamboo Mountain.
Yuan Douzhan, receiving the peach pits, immediately let out excited squeaks, grasped them in hand, and disappeared among the leaves in the blink of an eye.
"Ssssss!"
The Thunder Horn Python Queen twisted its blue-purple body, emitting an unhappy hissing, that stinking monkey still wanted to steal their Spiritual Peaches.
Li Quanqing took out Soul Nourishing Water and Wind Spirit Liquid to soothe them, and these young snakes were no longer angry, smacking their lips and drinking heartily.
"Squeak squeak!"
Before long, the mountain forest stirred, and the young Vine Wood Ape emerged again, with its father, Yuan Wugu, following behind.
"Roar~"
The Great Spiritual Ape roared, presenting two bowls hollowed out of tree hearts, filled with honey-colored liquid that swayed and exuded a sweet aroma.
"Is this... Monkey Wine?"
Li Quanqing sniffed the faint scent of wine, guessing.
Indeed, these Spiritual Apes were extraordinarily talented; having only been on Fish-Dragon Island for a few days, they had already begun to try brewing wine from the island’s berries.
He took a sip, sour and sweet, the taste of alcohol very light, as fermentation time was short, it was more appropriate to call it fruit juice.
Yuan Wugu presented another bowl of wine mash in front of the Spiritual Python, seemingly as an apology gift, its temperament gentle and intelligent.
The Thunder Horn Python Queen moved its body, tasted it, and then called its clan to enjoy it together, the lightning winding around its golden horn extinguished.
"Ssssss!"
Just as the Vine Wood Ape was about to leave with its child, the Thunder Horn Python suddenly stuck out its tongue, signaling its underlings to pluck two Thunder Spirit Peaches for them.
Seeing this, Li Quanqing instantly felt a sense of pride.
Worthy of being the snakes he had raised since they were young; they indeed had good manners.
The youth took out seven or eight large gourds from his Storage Bag to give to the apes for storing wine.
Then he brought out two bottles of Taiyin Soul Nourishing Water and Wind Spirit Liquid for the Vine Wood Ape, which could be added when brewing wine.
After ensuring a friendly relationship between the two species, Li Quanqing went to Qingfeng Mountain to check on the growth of the Qingfeng Tea trees.
Enveloped within the Array, three tea trees had already broken through the soil, showing their tender green buds, brimming with vigorous vitality.
"Grow well! When the time comes, I’ll fry you good and proper!"
Li Quanqing murmured devilishly.
He specially used the Water Control Skill to water them with crisp and bracing spring water and encircled them with Spiritual Sand in the soil to ensure an abundance of Spiritual Energy.
Wandering through the mountain forest, filled with lush greenery and vitality, Li Quanqing felt his mood lifting.
All things thriving vigorously!
"Aow meow!"
Just as he returned to the coast, the Cloud-Leaping Snow Leopard suddenly trotted over and nuzzled up to him, spitting out a large chunk of crystal-clear ice.
Inside the ice were three big, fat and beautiful Green Jade Fish.
"You bushy-browed fellow, when did you learn to fish?"
Li Quanqing glanced sideways.
Beside him, the Golden Flame Tiger couldn’t wait any longer and impatiently blew out flames to melt the ice.
Night fell, bathed in Moonlight.
On the shore,
Li Quanqing lay in the embrace of the two large cats, his palms each stroking their soft bellies, the touch soft and bouncy, more comfortable than fuzzy heads.
In front, the Golden Flame Tiger breathed fire, grilling him a golden shiny Spirit Fish, while the Snow Leopard exhaled fog, making ice cubes to be added to the Moonlight-infused Qingfeng Spiritual Tea.
The distant sea surface rustled as over a thousand Green Jade Carps practiced under the moonlight. The playful Azure Water Pythons frolicked among the waves, and Bright Moon Shells attracted the Taiyin moonlight to descend, illuminating the world.
Life couldn’t be more pleasant.
Just as Li Quanqing, using the cats’ tummies as a pillow, was about to nod off,
the Elder Token hanging at his waist suddenly vibrated, conveying the excited and impatient voice of the Third Elder.
"The Foundation Establishment Pills have been refined; all Clan Elders, hurry back to Green Jade Islands at once. Make no mistake!"
