Chapter 640: Return to the Original State

In a cave, Xiao Mian got the corpse of an adult purple-eyed golden gibbon as he wished—obviously, this was the mother of the little ape!

At this point, everyone should be happy.

Unexpectedly, when Xiao Mian and others were about to leave this dangerous place, the purple-eyed golden gibbon kept asking them to stay, and then brought the four of them to a small tree.

The small tree was only three feet tall and ordinary.

The purple-eyed golden gibbon pointed at the small tree, and at the same time scratched three scratches on the ground with his fingers, and then pointed at the sun in the sky, gesturing back and forth.

"..., do you want us to wait here for three days?"

"Woo!"

Nodding, the purple-eyed golden gibbon pointed at the small tree again.

"It seems that this small tree is quite magical!" As he said this, Xiao Mian secretly used his peeping eyes to project at the small tree. At first glance, it was still ordinary, but soon, there were lines of spiritual energy, extending from the deepest part of the earth, through the trunk of the small tree, and condensed into six fruits the size of a fingernail. He trembled all over, and his spiritual eyes disappeared. After frowning and thinking for a moment, Xiao Mian said to the three women: "I want to wait here for three days, what do you think?"

"We sisters will naturally follow Brother Xiao's lead!"

"Okay!"

At that moment, the four of them sat around the small tree and waited for three days.

Three days passed in a flash, and at noon on this day, the sun shone.

The originally ordinary and inconspicuous small tree shook, and then the four people felt a huge spiritual energy gushing up from the depths of the earth.

They retreated again and again until they stopped a hundred feet away.

At the same time, white flowers bloomed on the originally lonely branches of the small tree, forming small red fruits - no more, no less, exactly six!

Once the fruit was formed, it fell with the wind.

The purple-eyed golden-armed ape had been standing by, and with a casual move, he took all six fruits into his palm. However, at the same time, leaves were falling from the branches of the small tree, and the fallen leaves were like sharp blades, cutting the body of the purple-eyed golden-armed ape, leaving blood marks.

It should be noted that even if the Star Magnetic Sword chopped on the purple-eyed golden-armed ape, it only produced a string of sparks, and Xiao Mian's fist hit the purple-eyed golden-armed ape and only injured it. It can be seen that these seemingly fragile fallen leaves contain great power.

As soon as the six spiritual fruits were in hand, the purple-eyed golden-armed ape flew away.

When it came to Xiao Mian, the purple-eyed golden-armed ape spread out its palms in a flattering manner.

"......, not bad!" Nodding, Xiao Mian took a spiritual fruit himself, and motioned the three women to take one each. Looking at the two spiritual fruits remaining in the purple-eyed golden-armed ape's palm, and seeing the purple-eyed golden-armed ape smacking its lips and staring at him, Xiao Mian smiled bitterly and waved his hand: "You have made a great contribution this time. You can share the remaining two with your child!"

"Woo woo woo woo!"

The purple-eyed golden-armed ape thought it was lucky to be able to keep a spiritual fruit, but Xiao Mian was so generous that he was overjoyed for a while.

After respectfully thanking him, he saw it take out a spiritual fruit first and feed it to its child carefully. Xiao Mian thought that it must take the other spiritual fruit itself, but after using its own demon essence to help the little monkey dissolve the medicinal power in the spiritual fruit, the purple-eyed golden-armed ape actually gave the last spiritual fruit to the little monkey.

Xiao Mian was stunned when he saw it, and his heart was touched.

Parental love is like a mountain and an ocean!

Besides, the little monkey swallowed two spiritual fruits one after another, screamed and flew up and down, and seemed to be in great pain. If it wasn’t for the spiritual fruits fed to it by the purple-eyed golden-armed ape, Xiao Mian and others would have thought that the little guy had accidentally taken some poison!

Fortunately, the little monkey calmed down in just a moment.

A golden light flashed in the purple pupils, and then returned to silence.

Xiao Mian, who had been paying close attention to the changes of the little monkey, was secretly shocked.

Purple-gold magic pupil!

That was the genuine original version - purple-gold magic pupil!

The purple pupils of the purple-eyed golden-armed ape were just a symbol of the degeneration of the purple-gold magic pupil. The little monkey had no golden light flashing in its purple pupils before.

It didn’t want to take two spiritual fruits in a row, but it actually returned to its ancestral origin!

What exactly is this little spiritual fruit?

Xiao Mian was thinking about this, and Xuancao was curious and wanted to feed the little monkey the spiritual fruit that belonged to her. After three days of playing, Xuancao and the little monkey had already become very close.

Unexpectedly, this move was stopped by the purple-eyed golden-armed ape.

"I'm afraid that with the little guy's qualifications, he can't bear the power of three spiritual fruits!" Speculating like this, Xiao Mian's eyes unconsciously glanced at the spiritual fruit in Xuancao's hand. This scene happened to be seen by Haitang, and her face changed. Haitang hurriedly said: "I don't know if these spiritual fruits are only effective for beasts? My three sisters don't have any spiritual beasts that can be used. These spiritual fruits are of little use to my sisters, so I'll give them to Brother Xiao!"

"This..."

Xiao Mian was stunned. Even a fool could see that these spiritual fruits were valuable. Even if he didn't have a spiritual beast to cultivate, he could sell or exchange them.

Looking back and seeing Haitang's vigilant look, Xiao Mian suddenly realized.

So, I was considered a big bad wolf...

"Fellow Daoist Haitang, you are worrying too much! Since I allowed you to stay here three days ago, why would I do such a thing as killing people and stealing treasures three days later? But..." Xiao Mian changed the subject and said kindly: "But if you are really useless, why not give you to me!"

"This..."

"So! None of us know the origin of this thing, nor do we know whether it can only be used against spirit beasts, so naturally there is no exact price. Xiao is not talented, but I happen to have some tools that you sisters may need. I will take out a few for you to choose from. If you like them, we can exchange them. How about that?"

"Brother Xiao is open-minded, Haitang is ashamed of himself!"

At that moment, Xiao Mian took a storage bag at random.

He opened the storage bag and poured out all the things from it for the three girls to choose from.

Although Xiao Mian was reasonable, Haitang and Kikyo did not dare to be ungrateful.

However, the things Xiao Mian took out were indeed suitable for their current use. After biting them, Haitang chose a top-level attack magic weapon and Kikyo asked for three bottles of fifth-level elixirs - the two were of equal value, roughly tens of thousands of middle spirits.

However, Xiao Mian shook his head, threw a primary-level attack magic weapon to Haitang, and threw a bunch of elixirs that he could not use to Kikyo.

Turning back, he saw Xuancao staring at him blankly.

"Little girl! Have you decided what you want?"

"I..." Hearing this, Xuancao paused, biting her red lips lightly, and begged in a low voice: "Brother Xiao, do you have any unused personal equipment? Just give me any one!"

"..."

Seeing Xuancao's graceful figure, Xiao Mian sighed for no reason.

He wanted to refuse, but couldn't bear to refuse.

In this world of cultivation where people eat people without spitting out bones, today is unknown tomorrow. Even if he can't give her a promise, it's not good to deprive her of the happiness she can grasp?

Thinking about this, Xiao Mian took out a blank jade slip from the storage bag, put it on his forehead, thought for a moment, and then handed it to Xuancao.

"I see that you have already mastered the Xu Earth Divine Light, which is really rare; this is the Xu Earth Escape Technique of our sect. If you can master it, you will have more power to protect yourself!"

"Thank you, Brother Xiao!"

After taking the jade slip, Xuancao was overjoyed - not only because of this Xu Earth Escape Technique, but also because in his mind, he didn't want to get hurt, right?

In this way, Xiao Mian got all four spiritual fruits.

At the moment, Xiao Mian opened the spiritual beast ring in public without avoiding suspicion, summoned the scent-seeking mouse and the golden-toothed rock elephant, and planned to feed them a spiritual fruit each.

The three women were surprised and suspicious when they saw this: the golden-toothed rock elephant had a special shape, so naturally they knew its origin at first sight, but the jade-toothed rock elephant was rare, let alone the golden-toothed rock elephant?

Although the golden-toothed rock elephant is still far from adulthood, it has grown to the height of a person, and it has a bit of a domineering demeanor when it looks around.

Seeing the spiritual fruit, the Golden Tooth Rock Elephant's mentality of trying to stay calm collapsed, and it rushed to Xiao Mian almost begging, and the Golden Tooth Rock Elephant wailed softly.

Since Xiao Mian summoned the Golden Tooth Rock Elephant, he would not be stingy.

Throwing a spiritual fruit to the Golden Tooth Rock Elephant, Xiao Mian looked at the Fragrance Seeking Rat that jumped into his hand automatically, and was quite hesitant.

Logically speaking, this Fragrance Seeking Rat was just a second-level spiritual beast, and it was not worth Xiao Mian's investment in it, but along the way, the little guy was also somewhat useful, not to mention that the Qingqiu Patriarch had said that if the opportunity was coincidental, the little guy might be able to advance!

That's it!

Just think of it as a fulfillment for you, so what?

With a casual smile, Xiao Mian gave another spiritual fruit to the Fragrance Seeking Rat.

The Fragrance Seeking Rat's rank has now been upgraded to the third level, and it stood up, bowed to Xiao Mian first, and then took the spiritual fruit.

The two spirit beasts took the spirit fruit and showed different signs.

The golden-toothed rock elephant suddenly raised its head and roared.

The golden-toothed rock elephant, which was only one meter tall, was only short among the elephants, but it burst out with more fierce power than the jade-toothed rock elephant in Longhutan.

That was not all. What was even more bizarre was that a golden-colored phantom dragon shadow appeared beside the golden-toothed rock elephant...

Along with the roar of the golden-toothed rock elephant, the dragon shadow seemed to roar to the sky.

If this magical fruit can really awaken the original power of the spirit beast, doesn't it mean that the ancestor of this golden-toothed rock elephant has a trace of true dragon blood?

In this way, the future achievements of the golden-toothed rock elephant should not be underestimated...

Looking at the scent-seeking rat again, although it did not make as much noise as the golden-toothed rock elephant, a snow-white giant beast phantom appeared on its body.

If the Qingqiu Patriarch's prediction was correct, this giant beast phantom should be the transformation of the Seeking Spirit Rat hidden in the Seeking Fragrance Rat's bloodline.

After the two spirit beasts put away the strange vision, Xiao Mian put it into the spirit beast ring.

Looking at the remaining two spirit fruits with his backhand, Xiao Mian couldn't help laughing.

If Qing Jing, who was already petty, knew that he had obtained such a heaven-defying spirit fruit and didn't leave it a portion, he would probably turn against him on the spot!

After putting the two spirit fruits into the spirit sealing box, Xiao Mian looked at the purple-eyed golden-armed ape.

"It's hard for you to be so affectionate to your child. People in the cultivation world are ruthless, but you beasts still retain pure family affection. Well, you should practice well here!"

"Woo!"

Nodding, the purple-eyed golden-armed ape bowed repeatedly.

After that, Xiao Mian left with the three women, of course, and the little ape.

The little guy seemed to know that the separation from his father was inevitable, so he kept curling up in Xuancao's arms and refused to come out.

"This little guy! Since it's clinging to you so much, Xuancao, you will be responsible for taking care of it from now on!"

Xiao Mian said this lightly, Xuancao didn't understand why, and nodded as a matter of course, but Haitang's face changed slightly.

If a sixth-rank demon beast, the purple-eyed golden-armed ape cub, is well-trained from birth, its future achievements will be no less than any Jindan cultivator.

Seeing that Xiao Mian said no more, Haitang suppressed her doubts in her heart - why did this Daoist Xiao protect her so much?

What Haitang didn't know was that this purple-eyed golden-armed ape cub was a species that had awakened the purple-gold magic pupil. If she knew this, she would not dare to agree to anything!
