Chapter Seventy-Six: Gathering Spirit Stones
On the Weiling Hill, one person and two beasts stood in front of a stone, it was Shangguan Yun and the two green cloud leopards. The corners of Shangguan Yun's mouth twitched slightly, as he heard that strange child happily belittle Spirit Grass.
"Hmph! Compared to the so-called weeds, our spirit stone can be described as the gap between heaven and earth. The childlike voice said with a haughty look.
"Oh, what is a Gathering Spirit Stone, what is a Gathering Spirit Stone......" It's not that Shangguan Yun is lonely and unheard, but he doesn't know what a Gathering Spirit Stone is, everything in the world, there are countless treasures in heaven and earth, and a cultivator like him who has just entered the world is completely unfamiliar with this world. Almost all of the things he knew were solved through Wang Can, but now that Wang Can was asleep in the space ring, he could only patiently ask about this stone.
"Hmph! And say I'm a hairy boy, as long as you don't beat my idea, I'll tell you!" He's starting to put things on the table now.
"Eh, you're just a stone, why am I hitting you, it's useless......" He naturally wouldn't say this, he wanted to see what this spirit gathering stone was. So he said calmly: "This is natural, I came here just to look for spiritual grass, and I accidentally discovered your existence, so I will disturb you to absorb spiritual energy......"
After listening to Shangguan Yun's heartfelt words, the Gathering Spirit Stone gradually reduced its hostility towards him. The cracks in the stones reappeared, and faint purple-red points of light appeared in front of them, and gradually the spirit stone revealed its true body, like a jewel-like appearance, prismatic shape. The spirit stone is not large, and it is almost the same as ordinary small stones except for their appearance.
"The Gathering Spirit Stone is born to gather spiritual energy, even if the spiritual power is lacking in the place where we are, it will gather together because of the existence of the Gathering Spirit Stone, simply put, we can attract spiritual power, do you think those weeds are comparable to me?"
Shangguan Yun listened to what he said, sensing the abundant spiritual power around him, obviously because of the attraction of the spirit gathering stone. This frightened Shangguan Yun's young mind, in his cognition, such a perverted treasure could not exist at all, but the fact was that this treasure was in front of his eyes, and he was talking face-to-face with him at this time.
If that's the case, if I get such a treasure, there will be no shortage of aura, this ...... This is simply a cultivation cheat weapon!" Shangguan Yun thought in shock in his heart. It's just that what he doesn't know is that treasures like the Spirit Gathering Stone will not follow any cultivator at all, and this kind of treasure is difficult for some people to even think about, let alone obtain it, just like just now, if you are greedy for him, then it will be very easy for him to hide in the cracks of the stone, or even hide underground.
"Ahem, that ......" Shangguan Yun was just about to say something when he was ruthlessly interrupted by the spirit stone: "Don't beat me when I said, do you want to go back on your word?"
"Uh...... I will naturally do what I promised you, but making a friend is not a breach of contract, right?" Shangguan Yun once again revealed the harmless smile of the human and animal, and touched the tip of his nose with his right hand, not to mention how treacherous it was.
"Hmph, you humans are so hypocritical, once my companion was deceived by someone, and I still haven't heard from him, maybe he is dead, or he is ......" Gathering Spirit Stone muttered, a tone of loss telling the bitterness of his friend's departure. Shangguan Yun knew that this might be an opportunity, so he planned to have a good conversation with him next, and he had to get this gem.
"Oh, can the Spirit Stone still die?"
"In fact, the only difference between our spirit stone and ordinary stones is that we have a soul, once the soul is lost, we will die because of it, even if it is weak, if there are not enough treasures to nourish the soul, then it will not be far from death. The Gathering Spirit Stone began to explain to Shangguan Yun slowly, and even he didn't know why he, who had always hated humans, would actually tell him this secret.
"If you want to be friends with you, maybe you don't think such words can be trusted, so...... How about we make a deal?" Although the other party had made it clear that the Spirit Gathering Stone never followed cultivators, there was an exception after all, so he wanted to give it a go.
"Hmph!" the fox's tail is exposed...... "The Spirit Stone snorted coldly.
"Why can't we help each other?I'll help you find a companion, and I can also find treasures for you to nourish your soul power, why don't you stay by my side?If you think I'm unreliable in the future, or if you want to leave, you can ...... at any time," Shangguan Yun said bitterly towards the Gathering Spirit Stone.
Ju Lingshi gradually fell silent, obviously these two promises had moved him, Shangguan Yun did not bother silently, giving him time to consider that he would have a glimmer of hope, if the persuasion was too tight, it would lose its effect. The spirit stone was indeed thinking about it at this time, and had been waiting for it for the sake of his companion, so that he could not find himself after his companion returned. But now I can only wait hard for when I will have an answer, if I don't have the treasure that nourishes my soul power, I will die here, so what's the point of waiting for me?
"Believe me, I will help you find a companion, becoming a strong man has always been my dream, in this vast world where the strongest are respected, any tribulation can happen, I am naturally happy to have your help...... Of course, it also depends on your wishes!" When Shangguan Yun said this, he once again revealed a melancholy look, and that kind of dazed situation infected the Spirit Gathering Stone and the Qingyun Leopard. It is not a dream for him to become a strong man, the important thing is to save Wang Yue, otherwise he would not have worked so hard.
"Okay! In that case, I will follow you, but there is one condition!" After thinking about it, Ju Lingshi decided to leave with him, first, following him can not only find the way of his companions through various news, but also get the heavenly treasures that nourish his soul power, and second, he suddenly wants to know what is hidden behind those melancholy eyes. "Oh, what terms?" Although he was expected to agree, he still felt a hint of surprise after the results came out of his mouth.
"The condition is: I will do what I want to do, and don't force me if I don't want to do it... Although persecution is useless, and then if you get the treasures of heaven and earth, among which are the things I want, you must give them priority, otherwise I will leave immediately!" As soon as these words came out, even Shangguan Yun was stupid and could hear that there was something in the words, this was obviously blackmail! If all the treasures of heaven and earth obtained in the future belonged to this broken stone, then he must not lose his life?
"It's better to agree first, and then talk about the future......" Shangguan Yun thought to himself, and nodded with a black line on his face: "Okay! I promise you, but you can't go too far, if you say that all the treasures are given to you, then my cultivation will also be very difficult, so ......" Obviously, he has begun to feel pain. But there is no way, as long as you can get the help of the spirit gathering stone, it is also a great benefit for your own cultivation.
