Chapter 260: Chapter 200: Golden Toad lays a Dragon egg, the prosperity of plum blossom fragrance (First update )_2
Jiang Hui couldn’t help but laugh, and seeing how cute the little creature was, he let it go.
At this moment.
From afar, the rush of wind was getting louder; it almost flipped over instantaneously.
Then, an incredible figure from a distance arrived in a rush.
His green robe fluttered in the wind; he hovered above the ground, surrounded by a powerful aura. Bathed in the moonlight, he appeared ethereal, just like a Banished Immortal.
It was the Willow God.
She had followed a beam of light to this place and accidentally witnessed this scene.
“Did a golden toad just hatch from the massive egg?!”
The Willow God slowly approached, gliding as if a dragonfly touching the water s surface, making it over to Jiang Hui’s side in just a few steps. Her radiant eyes were filled with curiosity and surprise.
The guest can call this little one the Sun-swallowing Golden Toad, my newly obtained spiritual pet!!”
Jiang Hui, of course, had sensed the Willow God’s presence long ago.
But she arrived so quickly, using her Method of Shrinking the Ground into Inches, that even his preparedness had been caught offguard.
However, Jiang Hui had devised his response in an instant and, therefore, did not feel too disoriented.
Sun-swallowing Golden Toad? What a distinctive name,” the Willow God commented, her clear eyes glowing as she looked at the golden frog sleeping soundly on Jiang Hui’s shoulder.
But then.
Her eyes suddenly reflected serious concentration, as if she had noticed something extraordinary about this little golden toad…
“Could this be a Fairy King Species, equivalent to the Ten Evils?”
After a long pause, the Willow God couldn’t help but exclaim, even she herself was astonished.
In the Ancient Immortal Era, she had encountered immortal species like the True Dragon and Kun Peng. They had fought shoulder to shoulder for tens of thousands of years in that great war, so she was familiar with the energy they possessed.
That sort of energy was unique; not even an emperor butterfly, which closely resembled the Ten Evils, had it. Only a species with a truly ascended bloodline and free from all constraints, stepping into the real Fairy King Species, could emit such an energy, and this little golden toad shared a significant similarity. In other words, when this little golden toad reached adulthood, it would likely attain the status of Fairy King. Even if it couldn’t quite measure up to a True Dragon, it would still be impressive.
The term ‘Fairy King’ in itself symbolizes an extreme level, more than enough to deter those with ill intentions.
It s just a little spiritual pet!” Jiang Hui slightly smiled and said.
He naturally would not, and could not, admit to this – it was simply too against the norm.
A creature comparable to the Ten Evils hatching from an egg? Should word of this get out, not just the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, but the entire Immortal Domain would be shocked and abuzz.
“Could you reveal where those giant eggs originate from?”
The Willow God inquired, revealing a hint of urgency even she hadn’t noticed. In her view, Jiang Hui’s words were merely modesty and cannot be believed.
Given her usual character, she would never ask such an unsophisticated question.
But the appearance of the Golden Toad had severe significance, so she couldn’t help but ask.
Especially since.
The level of closeness between the man and the beast far exceeded her expectations.
“I’m sorry, but I can’t answer that question,” Jiang Hui shook his head. He simply couldn’t answer such a question.
It could be a matter of life and death for the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths in the future. Are you sure you cannot share?”
The Willow God looked serious.
Jiang Hui just smiled and remained silent.
“It seems that I was foolish,”.
The Willow God sighed, her expression returning to its previous calm.
She had no means if the other party refused to speak.
However, the Willow God did not continue to inquire; that was her nature. If the other party really didn’t want to say, she would not persist in asking.
The night is deep, listening to the words of autumn…
A few days have passed.
The Willow God bade farewell, preparing to leave.
She couldn’t possibly always stay here. Sooner or later, there would be a time of separation, so she did not show much emotion.
What surprised Jiang Hui was.
Before leaving, the other party unexpectedly gave him the divine guide chapter of the Original Truth.
It is a Bone Script, which holds limitless changes, as if a vast universe is evolving within it.
“Honored guest, you give such a heavy gift, I’m a bit uncomfortable accepting
Jiang Hui pursed his lips, not accepting it immediately.
The Original Truth was born before the creation of the universe, grew in the chaos, and is not some kind of treasure, but an understanding of the Tao. It resembles a carrier of the Tao and is the origin of all Bone Scripts. When cultivated to the extreme, it has the ability to turn decay into magic.
It is too valuable.
“No need to worry. Despite its value, the Original Truth is of no use to me. I gave it to you hoping you can pass it on to those future hopes in the village,” said the Willow God, her eyes shining brightly.
The Original Truth is divided into three parts, and the part in her hands is the first chapter, the divine guide. It relates the many details of the Human Path Domain. She has already stepped into the Realm of the Immortal King, transcending the Human Path Domain. This thing is only a thought to her.
And moreover,
She had already passed this on to Shi Hao. She will be distant on her journey, and this thing will be meaningless to keep with her.
If that s the case, then I will gratefully accept it as per your wishes!”
Jiang Hui didn’t decline any further. Given that the other party had spoken so sincerely, he could not turn her down without a good reason. Additionally, he wouldn’t simply take it for nothing, as he also planned to give a return gift in the future.
Your land is full of talents who all have exceptional abilities. I think they should go and fight with the primordial beasts, grind in dangerous places. This way they can validate their learning, grow rapidly. Though you have ascended to the divine position, you can’t possibly protect them forever!”
The Willow God spoke, her voice as flowy as running water.
She genuinely believes the group of villagers are promising. They all have strong foundations, and their ability to comprehend is quite good. Among them are some exceptional talents comparable to the Supreme Bone and the Dual Pupils.
Particularly, these villagers are simple and of good heart, untainted by the outside world. They are all sincere children. What they lack is a process through which they can rapidly improve themselves.
But this process cannot be completed overnight. It requires going through battles and struggles, progressing and ascending through staking their lives in danger, and reaching their pinnacle.
In the Ancient Years, the most powerful creatures treated their offspring very harshly. To allow them to grow and become unmatched, they were usually put through hellish trials. Flowers kept in a greenhouse will never thrive and fail to go far.
“Of course, I know that. But I am confident that I can protect them forever. Under my protection, any living being from Liu Village can enjoy the world and realize the Great Taoist.”
Jiang Hui said calmly.
“You do have a great ambition. I can only wish you may one day have the opportunity to realize this great wish!”
The Willow God said quite subtly.
In her view, it’s almost impossible for this protecting deity of Liu Village, whom even she finds hard to understand, to achieve such a bold ambition.
There are always people better than oneself, always higher skies above oneself. Even she dare not claim to be invincible in the world. Despite embracing the virtues of the Human Path Domain and attaining the Fruits of Immortal King in the Ancient Immortal Era and causing dread to the Alien Tribes, there’s still the Immortal Emperor Position beyond the reach of her entire life above the Immortal King.
However, having been in touch for some time now, the two of them have grown familiar with each other. Her personality tends towards indifference, and she doesn’t want to demotivate the other party, so she chooses some more moderate words.
“If we are fated, we will meet again!”
Around them, a gentle wind brushed against their faces. The warm sun made people want to squint their eyes. In the distance, the green mountains and clear waters were covered in a thin, cicada wing-like sunshine.
The Willow God lowered her gaze. Perhaps because the figure in front of her also originated from the same source – both are enlightened from a willow tree – she said a few more words.
“Green hills like ink paintings that last a thousand autumns, green water like a stringless zither playing eternally! If we are destined to meet again, at that time 111 invite you to savor the fragrant plum blossoms of the prosperous world with me!”
Jiang Hui replied with his hands clasped in front, a leisurely smile on his face. Like a mountain breeze, he had a kind of unreal sense of transience, as if the next moment he would become an immortal.
Even the Willow God couldn’t help but silently admire the ‘Banished Immortal’ inside her heart in the face of this scene and emotion.
“If that day really comes, I will be there in person to see the flowers of the prosperous world.” The Willow God slightly nodded, smiling in agreement as well.
