Chapter 409: Chapter 314: Being born into poverty is not a shame, making up for it with hard work is noble_2
Under this endless heavy rain, all impurities seem to be cleansed away, everything is renewed, this is an intangible change, not only reflected on the surface, it’s not merely about the flowers becoming prettier, the grass turning greener, the leaves of the trees turning lush, the Green Mountain being painted pink.
Jiang Hui looked surprised.
It’s just a seed, but the effect it produced in such a short time could far exceed the Spirit Gathering Array?!
Although the level of the Spirit Gathering array was only primary, it had been operating for decades, not just for a day or two.
“Good, good!” The more Jiang Hui looked at the World Tree Seed in his hand, the more extraordinary he found it. This should belong to the hidden effect of the World Tree Seed. Although it couldn’t be directly displayed, it had a subtle and silent influence on things.
He weighed his options and felt that he should plant the World Tree Seed as soon as possible.
After all, the germination period of this thing is so long that it’s maddening, planting it early is always better than later, waiting for one less day is a victory.
The seed was not very big, about the size of a fist, but it was crystal clear like jade, surrounded by a strong green aura. Full of vitality, it emitted a refreshing fragrance that comforted the soul. Jiang Hui took a small whiff, and he felt refreshed all over.
“Swish…”
“Swish…”
Branches were shaking, the gentle breeze brushed past, the newborn sunrise fell on the earth through the colorful shadows of the tree.
With a rich breath of life, the willow leaves of Jiang Hui’s body became more transparent, almost like agate, each leaf pervaded with complex and intricate patterns, like the markings of the Great Taoist.
“This feeling is just like taking the all-curing Renewal Pill!” Jiang Hui stretched out a long yawn, feeling comfortable all over.
Generally speaking, at his current life-stage, ordinary external influences are unlikely to have such an effect, as his life level is too high and flawless. A drop of blood can transform into Human Body Big Medicine, far exceeding most Treasure medicinal plants.
But the seed of this World Tree could even give him a minor sublimation!
There’s a type of tea in the world called Enlighten Tea, it was the first type of tea tree to appear between heaven and earth, an incredibly rare and infrequent plant, precious beyond comparison throughout the ages.
Legend has it that the tea leaves of Enlighten Tea contain scattered Rules of The Great Taoist. Just one sip of tea brewed by its leaves can let mortals ascend immediately. Frequent consumption could even constantly experience a profound understanding of the Great Taoist, possessing a myriad of unimaginable uses.
Jiang Hui felt that he currently possessed the potential to become an Enlighten Tea.
The only difference was that one could be brewed into a drink, and the other could not.
But there’s no rule in the world that says willow leaves definitely can’t be brewed. Jiang Hui planned to try it later on, to see what it would taste like!
If the taste turned out to be good, he could store some for himself. After all, considering his current life level, a single thought could stimulate the fast growth of willow leaves.
Soon after regaining his senses,
Jiang Hui’s gaze returned to the World Tree Seed.
He had to say, this thing was like a bug, once it grows up, it could transform into a brand-new universe on its own, wouldn’t he then become the ancestor of myriad species who created heaven and earth?!
At that time, the evolution of life, the change of stars, the demise of the universe, everything would be at his disposal.
But the good thing is, the growth period of this seed is too long.
It takes a hundred thousand years to sprout? And then it grows one centimeter every ten thousand years, why doesn’t it just die? Jiang Huai doesn’t deny that his lifespan is infinite, but the dark turmoil and alien tribe invasion is like the Darksword hanging above his head.
He’s got time to wait, but Liu Village might not.
The time is too long, he can still retain his youthful appearance though countless dawns and dusks, immortal. But certain villagers may not withstand such a lengthy period of time.
Although birth and death are common in the world, Jiang Hui’s character is somewhat soft. Although he’s decisive in his actions towards outsiders, he can show a softer side when dealing with his own people.
If immortality is a kind of pain, he’s willing to inflict this pain on all his disciples.
Besides that, after a million years, that alien territory would officially invade the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.
Even given a million years, the World Tree Seed would only be over a meter tall, not worthy of being used as firewood, and by then it may not be very useful.
Despite all this, Jiang Hui was not overly anxious. One cannot eat hot tofu in a hurry; all these assumptions are based on the premise that he lacks the strength to protect himself during the invasion of the alien territory.
But a million years is too long; it’s not just a few days. Given this long period, Jiang Hui was confident that he would have grown to an unprecedented level.
Withdrawing his gaze, he took out the Weeping Blood Sword and the Saint’s Stone Statue.
The Weeping Blood Sword looked no different in size from ordinary longswords. It was an extreme blood-red hue. The sword body was not forged from steel but seemed to be cut from an unknown peculiar stone.
Besides that, there was a long blood groove in the center of the blade.
With the longsword in hand, in front of Jiang Hui, suddenly appeared a vast sea of blood like raging waves. He even could smell the overpowering stench of blood from the tip of his nose.
However, he could clearly sense that this sword was not in its complete form, the real complete form probably requires a certain amount of Weeping Blood Value. When the time comes, this divine weapon might undergo a real transformation.
With a single swing of his hand, the bloody longsword directly pierced the sky, falling from the Nine Heavens, casually spilling a thread, directly cut the mountain into two halves.
Then followed.
Jiang Hui casually swung it twice more.
Completely lacking the demeanor of just now, his movements were stiff, like an old man next door practicing tai chi.
“Sure enough, I’m not suited to using swords!”
After a moment, he laughed bitterly, directly putting away the Weeping Blood Sword.
The last item was the Saint’s Stone Statue.
There wasn’t much to look at with this thing.
The statue was very ordinary, more than four or five meters tall, carved from some kind of unknown stone, covered in the marks of time from top to bottom, some places even showing some cracks.
“The statue could be placed in the central square of the village, as for this Weeping Blood Sword… it could be given to the broad sword man!”
Jiang Hui pondered for a moment.
…
The autumn sand on the far shore is white, the mountains reflect the evening red.
The setting sun in the west, the faint afterglow spread over the whole process, as if it was coated with a layer of gold, peaceful and serene.
Being in it, even the most restless soul will be released.
It’s worth mentioning that in just a few ten days, the Faith Value of the youth carrying the Sky Demon’s Blood that Jiang Hui previously received had actually reached the requirement to impart abilities.
To be honest, he found this surprising.
Generally speaking, the more one admires him, the faster the Faith Value increases. Like Tu Wa Zi, Lin Zhuang, Lin Chen, and Old Man Lin, they are typical representatives of this.
But he has only met that boy once. He admires him that much?! Could it be that his personal charm is so attractive?
Jiang Hui shook his head, no longer confused.
No matter how he did it, he just needs to know that the Faith Value has reached the standard.
Jiang Hui’s External Avatar took a step and appeared in front of the boy in the next moment.
“Youngster, congratulations, you have passed the assessment!”
“Thank you for your guidance!” Hearing this, the boy’s face lit up, and he quickly replied.
“You handle it calmly and generously, indeed you have potential!” Jiang Hui nodded.
“Though I was born poor, I know it is not a disgrace; I always keep in mind to work hard without lacking, that makes a true man in the world, carry unremitting courage, ride on the wind and break the waves, starting with a warm pillow, the ambition never fades!”
The boy spoke out loudly, his voice clear. Although he looked at Jiang Hui with respect and awe, he did not belittle himself.
“Good, very good. I hope you can always have a warm heart and never lose your ambitious spirit; become a three-foot sword of heaven and earth, if you can always be like this, you will eventually welcome your shining moment like a gem in the dust!”
Jiang Hui nodded, his voice loud, deafening.
It was obvious that the boy was educated, and he spoke more pleasingly than the rural men in the village.
The boy’s Faith Value had reached the minimum requirement for imparting abilities, so Jiang Hui did not hesitate to first pass on the most basic Body Tempering Scripture to him, allowing him to lay a good foundation.
As the imparting of the technique was completed, the boy’s Faith Value, in an instant, reached a hundred as promised.
“I have already imparted to you the most basic Method of Blood Manipulation. In the future, be sure to study diligently. Although I won’t be too concerned about your cultivation progress, I will keep an eye on the degree of your effort!”
In the end, Jiang Hui did not forget to remind him.
Under the vast dome of the sky, the deity whispers…
