At this moment, Zhenyuan Daxian walked over and chuckled as he touched the restored ginseng fruit tree.
After confirming that the tree had regained its vitality, he was even more satisfied with the angelica.
"Little fellow, it's a pity you're already Laozi's disciple, otherwise I really wanted to take you under my wing. But it doesn't matter, your ability to restore this spiritual root shows that we are also destined to meet. If you encounter anything you don't understand in the future, you can come and ask me."
The two boys, Qingfeng and Mingyue, standing to the side, immediately widened their eyes.
They had never seen their master speak so kindly before. In the past, when they didn't study hard, their master was very strict and would have wanted to whip them.
"It's just a trivial trick, there's no need for such high praise from the great immortal."
"Haha, you little brat, you're quite modest. I wonder how that arrogant monkey became your friend."
monkey:……
What's wrong with you? You have to snap at me every time I say something, right?
The monkey was heartbroken, but there was nothing it could do. It couldn't win a fight, and the other side was in the right, so it could only silently suffer.
"However, excessive modesty is not good either. Your deeds, especially your feat of resurrecting Erlang Shen's mother hundreds of years ago, have spread throughout the Three Realms. Now that you have restored my ginseng fruit tree, I should also express my gratitude."
"No need, Immortal. I've come here to help my friend settle things."
"This is not only a way of expressing my gratitude to you, but also a gift from an elder to a younger generation."
After saying this, Zhen Yuanzi knocked down ten ginseng fruits, then summoned a special container, put them inside, and handed them to Bai Zhi.
"My Wuzhuang Temple is not as wealthy as the Heavenly Court. All we can offer are these fruits. Here, take them and have a taste."
Upon seeing this scene, the young monks and disciples of Wuzhuang Temple subconsciously swallowed.
When did my master become so generous? Even when he met the Primordial Celestial Venerable, he only took two ginseng fruits. But now, for this junior, he actually gave away ten ginseng fruits all at once.
Very few of these disciples even got to eat a single bite.
"This……"
"No need to refuse, just take it. I don't lack these things, it's just that few people are worth the ginseng fruit I'm giving away."
"Okay, thank you, Master... but..."
Bai Zhi took one out of the container and said, "This ginseng fruit tree is also thanks to the care of everyone in Wuzhuang Temple, so I am willing to share this one with all the disciples of Wuzhuang Temple."
Upon hearing this, all the disciples stared at Bai Zhi in astonishment. This True Lord was actually willing to share such a precious thing with them, who were good for nothing.
This is a divine fruit that can grant you 360 years of life just by smelling it; and 47,000 years of life by eating just one!
Even if so many people share one, eating just a small bite would extend one's lifespan by at least two thousand years.
"Oh?"
Upon hearing Bai Zhi's words, Zhen Yuanzi was stunned, then burst into laughter.
"Good, good, you little rascal, you really make me happy."
"Disciples, prepare a feast to welcome the True Lord as he preaches to you!"
Chapter 717 How can I repay this kindness?
The disciples of Wuzhuang Temple readily agreed and rushed over to help with eager expressions.
"True Lord Baizhi is such a kind person. Ginseng fruit is so precious, and we are actually able to have a taste of it."
"Yes, I'm also very curious. How did that arrogant monkey get to know the True Lord? Their personalities are so different."
While helping, the disciples began to discuss in hushed tones.
It was clear that Bai Zhi's generous actions had thoroughly sparked their desire to discuss the matter.
"How did they meet? They were lucky, otherwise, given the monkey's crime of causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace, he should have been imprisoned until death."
"I really envy that monkey's incredible luck. I wish I were Zhenjun's friend."
"Alright, alright, stop dreaming and hurry up and prepare everything needed for the banquet."
……
"Hehe, my disciples..."
Zhen Yuanzi and Bai Zhi could naturally hear their whispers, and he smiled helplessly.
"It's nothing, it's just human nature. Great Immortal, there's no need to worry. If you focus solely on cultivation and lose all emotions, you'll become no different from a stone, which is not beautiful."
Bai Zhi said with a smile.
"Indeed, without emotions and desires, how can it be considered life?"
Zhen Yuanzi was clearly satisfied with Bai Zhi's answer.
Back in front of the main hall, Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing had just had their ropes untied by a disciple.
"Amitabha, Immortal, I'm so sorry to have troubled you again. I'm truly ashamed."
Tang Sanzang stepped forward, chanted a Buddhist prayer, and then said with some shame.
He felt a little embarrassed because Bai Zhi had come to his rescue several times.
"Elder Tang, there's no need for that. I'm friends with this monkey, so it's only right that I help him out. I just hope that Elder Tang can keep a close eye on this monkey in the future and prevent him from becoming too arrogant."
Bai Zhi glanced at the monkey, then smiled and said to Tang Sanzang.
"That is indeed the case. I will urge Wukong to do more to prevent him from making the same mistake again."
Tang Sanzang bowed and made his promise.
The monkey couldn't hold back any longer, "Little White, what are you saying to your master? Do you think I'm the kind of arrogant person who keeps making the same mistakes?"
"What do you say?"
monkey:……
When Bai Zhi glanced at him, he realized that he really couldn't refute her. How many times had he made the same mistake after Bai Zhi reminded him?
"Haha, now that things have been perfectly resolved, please take your seats, everyone. I have prepared a meal."
Zhenyuan Daxian didn't mention any vegetarian meal, since the main person he was hosting this time was Baizhi, not the pilgrimage group; they were just extras.
Therefore, vegetarian meals are unnecessary. After all, if you invite someone to a proper banquet and serve a table full of vegetarian food, it would be a clear sign of disrespect.
Anyway, there are vegetarian dishes inside, which is perfect for the pilgrimage team to eat.
The banquet begins.
"This is a divine wine that I brewed using ginseng fruit. You may also try it."
During the meal, Zhen Yuanzi handed the wine pot to Bai Zhi.
"Thank you very much, Immortal Zhenyuan."
Bai Zhi took the wine pot and poured herself a cup.
I must say, it tastes pretty good, and it made me feel refreshed.
However, her mind wasn't on the meal; it was focused on the task she had already completed.
The command system in his mind opened the panel and displayed system information. Information that he hadn't seen before immediately appeared.
The quest to save the ginseng fruit tree has been completed. Reward: Qingqiu Jade.
[Qingqiu Jade: A treasure of the fox clan from mythology, worn by the nine-tailed celestial fox of Qingqiu. It allows the fox clan's bloodline to evolve slowly. The host can actively over-stimulate this evolution by injecting a horse talisman or abundant power, accelerating the bloodline's evolution speed. The speed depends on the amount of power injected.]
This item is bound to the host and can be recalled at any time.
Seeing the system's explanations, Bai Zhi was quite satisfied. After all this operation, the return was indeed pleasing, and her planning was worthwhile.
If the system description is correct, this Qingqiu Jade should be the treasure that can help the fox-people evolve.
This should improve General Feixiao's situation where he always suffers backlash due to Yue Kuang.
To be precise, it should be about improving the situation of the fox-people.
Because if Fei Xiao's Moon Madness is targeting her alone, there are actually many ways to deal with it.
As we all know, Moon Frenzy is not an illness, but rather a buff skill. The reason why Feixiao's Moon Frenzy is so deadly is that, as a fox-person, she does not have the same strong recovery ability as the Buli people who embrace abundance more comprehensively.
Therefore, each use inevitably leaves hidden injuries and causes severe mental damage, leading to the eventual collapse of both body and mind, resulting in a state of being unable to recognize one's own family and ultimately dying from exhaustion.
Therefore, as long as you build up your physical and mental strength and improve your recovery ability, you can solve this problem to a large extent.
The simplest way, besides Bai Zhi's skill from the Abundant Fate Path, is to eat more peaches, which should also be effective, since they increase both mental and physical strength.
This can be considered a targeted treatment.
But this is obviously too costly to replicate.
Because the envoy's strength is already very high, the effect of eating the peaches is vastly different from that of ordinary people. If he wants to be able to withstand the Moon Fury without any damage, like Bu Liren, then he would have to consume a lot of energy.
But now that we have this Qingqiu Jade, it should be able to solve that problem.
Strictly speaking, the Buli people and the fox people are of the same origin and both possess the blessing of abundance. However, the Buli people are more mutated and thus look more like wolves.
Judging from the fact that Fei Xiao and many other fox people also possess the Moon Frenzy ability, fox people also have the same potential.
This is also why the leader of the battle, Hu Lei, was never killed.
The claims of amazing regenerative abilities and invincibility are all nonsense. The simplest way is to just throw him into the Void Star God's territory, where he'll be guaranteed to die a horrible death.
The fox-people have always wanted to uncover the secret that would allow them to evolve again from the special unit, Hu Lei.
Therefore, with just this precious jade as a guide, the fox-people will most likely gain a stronger regenerative ability, thus overcoming the Moon Madness's weakness.
As for whether he will turn into someone like Bu Liren, I think it's unlikely.
Which Qingqiu fox doesn't evolve into a nine-tailed fox, but rather into a muscular wolf-like creature?
However, this is still an unknown. If I go back, I will definitely try it on other fox-people first. If that doesn't work, I can transform into a fox-person myself and use this to experience it.
After all, if she were to become another race, she would inherit the racial talents of that race.
"If we give the Qingqiu Jade to the fox clan, how will they ever repay this kindness?"
Bai Zhi sighed silently.
Chapter 718 Fireworks: This little dragon is so heartless!
“The familiar ceiling…and…”
Bai Zhi turned her head and saw the silver wolf lying beside her, looking exhausted and still fast asleep.
Turning my head again, I saw Fireworks getting dressed over there.
"Haha, you're awake."
Hanabi seemed a little embarrassed and sped up her dressing process.
"Hanabi, what are you doing here?"
Although watching Hanabi get dressed made Bai Zhi feel a surge of anger, and she wanted to grab this guy and love him to death, she still forced herself to hold back.
How could a noble dragon be swayed by such petty desires?
However, she was still puzzled as to how Spark had gotten onto this celestial ship. Surely she couldn't have come here to participate in the martial arts ceremony.
"Well, that's a secret. Besides, they can go wherever they want; we can't report everything to the esteemed Dragon Lord, can we?"
Hanabi's tone became habitually flippant.
Angelica dahurica: ...
She felt her anger rising even more intensely, and she thought she might have developed a condition that made her unable to bear looking at Sparkle's effeminate appearance.
So she sat up in bed.
"Hey, hey, hey, what do you want to do?"
As Bai Zhi walked towards her step by step, Huo Hua's expression turned somewhat frightened.
She had been exhausted by Bai Zhi before, and even fell into a coma. She had only just woken up and was preparing to make a secret escape.
She quickly put on her clothes, while simultaneously reaching for the doorknob, hoping to escape as soon as possible.
Bai Zhi, however, acted first, grabbing Hua Huo's chin and revealing a hint of scarlet light in her eyes.
"You...you wouldn't still want to..."
