Chapter 373 - Being About to Leave (1/2)

Lin Luoran eventually gets two new formulas of Bolus from the wolf.

The first one is the formula of Grade Two “Elementary Bolus”. It is the most effective Bolus which can strengthen foundation and Wakan for cultivators of Laying Foundation period. With its help, cultivators of Laying Foundation can adapt to the changing from Reiki to Wakan. It can also make the personal ability of the early Laying Foundation period more stable.

The second one is “Reiki Transition Bolus”, which can gather Reiki and work as a bridge. It is most effective in the little realm of the Laying Foundation period.

Lin Luoran checks the spirit medicine in s.p.a.ce and finds that she has enough spirit herbs for Elementary Bolus; however, there are still two missing adjuvants for Reiki Transition Bolus. Truffle of Hundred Years Old Bamboo Root is one of them. Rarer than ordinary truffles, it grows in the roots of 100-year old bamboo. Lin Luoran has planted a handful of bamboos more than one-hundred-year-old in s.p.a.ce. She digs their roots, but she doesn’t find a thing similar to it. However, she feels helpless for harvesting a few tender bamboo shoots.

Lin Luoran decides to make “Elementary Bolus” first. Anyway, she has made the Grade Four Foundation-laying Bolus, so this middle-range Grade Two bolus is nothing for her.

After bearing Essence, Lin Luoran gets continuous and stable Bolus Fire. She turns on the furnace and feels much easier than before.

She doesn’t need to concern about controlling the firepower so she can totally focus on the alchemy furnace. The success rate of Grade Two bolus she is refining is still not worse than that of Grade One bolus.

By the morning light the next day, Lin Luoran sees green mist coming towards the rain forest, and then it turns into a person when it lands. It is Yang Lisha.

Lin Luoran just gets the first stove of boluses while Yang Lisha sees the soul wood towering in the mountains. They are both very happy. Yang Lisha even walks around the soul wood a few times to make sure it is real. She turns around and smiles.

“In fact, I don’t care where you find the soul wood as long as you can get one. Now I have to take a lot of trouble with bringing it back to Rong City. Don’t you think it’s troublesome? ”

Lin Luoran is speechless. She forgot this is not a normal cultivator but a monster of gra.s.s and wood. At a glance, Yang Lisha can tell the truth of the soul wood. However, Lin still can’t just do as Yang Lisha says. If she had taken out such a large tree in Rong City, Yang Lisha would have definitely known it.

“How do you take it home?” Lin Luoran has never seen this female monster’s tricks except that she scared Lin by making some vines at the Lins’ villa. She is really curious about her.

Yang Lisha glances at her and puts two hands together to make a lotus Taoist hand gesture. The soul wood gets its roots off the ground where Lin Luoran planted it. It is a normal trick of controlling plants. However, the strange thing is the soul wood shrinks at a visible speed as Yang Lisha changes her Taoist hand gesture. After a while, this towering tree up to tens of meters becomes a vivid model with complete roots—it shrinks into a small tree with a height of one foot so Yang Lisha can hold it easily in hand.

Is this also an art of nature?

Lin Luoran can still remember the mysterious ancestor of the monsters of wood in the Tower of Babel. He shrunk Yang Lisha in his hand and made her a person again with a sigh of breath. No matter how amazing spells are, they are still the application of Reiki energy from heaven and earth. Lin Luoran can’t understand mysterious things like paper cranes or Yang Lisha’s ability.

“Don’t be too envious. Anyway, you will go to Penglai. It is said that the arts of nature are recorded in some Jade Maps there. Even thuergy which is inaccessible for the Lower Land may also be part of it.

Lin Luoran shakes her head, “I just want to find a way to shape the Taoist root for mortals. As for the arts of nature or thuergy, I can study them someday as my personal ability promotes. There is no need to hurry.”

Yang Lisha gets the soul wood in a good mood, so she tells the truth after thinking for a while, “Where did you get the news that there is a way in Mount Penglai to make mortals shape the Taoist root? If it is not true, aren’t you risking your life for nothing? ”

Lin Luoran is dumb. She was also doubtful when she got the news from the Chronicle of the Nine Provinces. However, she was convinced when she realized the Dongting Dragon Palace recorded in this travel book is real.

If… if Penglai can’t make mortals reshape the Taoist root, what should she do?

Yang Lisha sees how Lin Luoran’s look changes. She now owes Lin a favor, so she sighs and puts a bead with green light into the place between Lin’s eyebrow.

“Whether you can get what you want in Mount Penglai or not, our three pacts have been completely over. This is the way to Mount Penglai. I promise if I cheat you even a little bit, I will suffer from the thunder punishment of the Tao of nature. ”

When it comes to personal ability enhancement, promises of both cultivators and monsters can be heard by heaven, so Yang Lisha does not have to curse herself. Lin Luoran nods firmly after checking the memory bead.

Who can predict what will happen in the next second after making a decision?

She has to go to Mount Penglai so she can be a qualified child. She has to fight for the fate of her mother.

The three pacts with the female monster have been completed. She gets the message of Penglai while the female monster gets the soul wood. They both don’t want to stay in the barren mountains anymore. Yang Lisha turns into mist and leaves. Lin Luoran also returns to Rong City on the back of Goldie.

It’s only eight o’clock when she is home. Mrs. Lin has been accustomed to how mysterious her own daughter is. Mrs. Lin just normally prepares a set of cutlery for her and asks her to have breakfast as soon as possible.

Rong Donglin is still resting at home. Mrs. Lin promises Sister Rong a holiday, so the bean porridge is made by Mrs. Lin herself. Lin Luoran has two bowlfuls of porridge. After so many years, having the porridge made by her mother is still the warmest thing. Lin Luoran hopes that this porridge can always exist in her life. She wants her family to stay together and never separate.
