Chapter 18 – Fierce Beast Cub (2/2)

A fierce struggle was going on inside Lei Yu’s mind, one side was guilt, the other being difficulty.

The little thing in Lei Yu’s palm was rubbing around for a long time, then suddenly jumped down. It made a “ow” sound, then ran towards the depths of the forest. Lei Yu hurried forward in an attempt to catch up.

The little thing was fast while Lei Yu followed closely behind. After running for a long distance, the little thing stopped in front of a large boulder, lifting its head up to look at it.

The boulder was more than two meters high, deeply entrenched in the dirt. Looking around the boulder, Lei Yu saw two parallel lines carved on the top. There is a certain distance between the two lines. The little guy at this time, once again made a “ow” sound, then his body suddenly lighted up, but this light was actually black. Lei Yu blinked a few times, then the light disappeared and the little thing was also gone.

Lei Yu looked all over but did not find any sign of the little thing. When his attention was once again focused on the boulder, Lei Yu was completely shocked. The originally blank space between the two parallel lines suddenly had an image there, and the image was very familiar, it was that little beast!

“What… what is going on?” Furiously scratching his head, Lei Yu gave up and just sat down.

Observing it for most of the day and still not seeing any changes on the boulder, “forget it!”

Going to the edge of the river and washing his face, Lei Yu then once again went to pick a bag full of the unnamed fruit before going back to the river and sitting down to cultivate. Currently it was already dark out, wanting to return to his residence would probably be impossible for now.

At the same time as Lei Yu had closed his eyes to cultivate, the boulder deep inside the woods started shaking, followed by returning to a calm state. But the image of the beast carved onto the face of the boulder was a bit different now, it had one blood red eye, while the other eye was blind.

Lei Yu’s main purpose of coming back here was to pick these unnamed fruits. These fruits were very beneficial to Nuo Hu’s cultivation. If Liu Hao can successfully condense his internal energy, then these fruits would be a great help to him as well.

After a night of cultivation, the slight improvement had already made Lei Yu very happy. Carrying a bag full of these fruits, he was going to leave this familiar place, but this place did have some slight changes to it.

———————————————

“These fruits have a very long shelf life, no need to fear it rotting or going bad.” From his backpack, Lei Yu poured out the fruits he picked. Liu Hao did not know what they were, but Nuo Hu on the side was excited to the extreme. These fruits were a huge help to someone that was cultivating!

“Master, what are these? Does it taste good?” ask Liu Hao while holding a fruit and looking at it all over.

“Remove the question mark from you statement and taste it yourself” laughed Lei Yu.

Liu Hao blinked, put the fruit in his mouth, then his chewing gradually became faster, his looks becoming more and more surprised, “Oh man! Really delicious!” One hand grabbing another one and stuffing into his mouth again.

“You little thing! Really… ” Nuo Hu seeing Liu Hao’s actions became a bit distressed. These fruits were considered a precious miraculous elixir to him, yet to Liu Hao, it looked like he was eating something as ordinary as a peanut, how can one not have their heart ache?

“Hm? What is going on?” Liu Hao suddenly starting rubbing his stomach, its surface went from red to green.

“No way, this thing is making him sick?” Lei Yu did not understand at all, he had been eating the fruit for over a year and did not get sick or any strange disease, why would Liu Hao just eat two and become like this?

“Nope, I’m not getting sick! Master, how come inside my stomach there’s a gas moving back and forth?”

Lei Yu was overjoyed, “hurry up and sit down cross-legged, focus your mind, carefully feel around what’s happening internally, at the same time follow the cultivating methods I gave you and see if you can grasp this gas.

Following Lei Yu’s words, Liu Hao sat down. Lei Yu and Nuo Hu stared at him without blinking, hoping there would be some result.

Half an hour later, Liu Hao had no response. An hour later, Nuo Hu yawned “how come it’s going so slow?”

“Master! Oh crap!”
