Chapter 1066: Pestilent Dragonfly Dust Spawn, Absorbed! (1/2)
Once the defenses and preparation were complete, or she felt like her preparations were enough, Evelynn started to refine the Pestilent Dragonfly Dust Spawn.
The purplish-green essence energy that swirled in her dantian became erratic before it started to target the verdant sphere.
*Sizzle!~*
The Pestilent Dragonfly Dust Spawn trembled as it could instinctively feel that its very existence was in danger, about to be erased. It spurted out its poisonous energy as a form of retaliation. Verdant ashes and smoke spread out in lesser quantities, breaking past the essence energy that was trying to refine it.
However, it was suddenly met with a yellow layer that blocked it from moving. Still, the poison reacted and tried to dissolve the impeccable defense. However, the poison ended up disappearing from using up energy instead.
The Pestilent Dragonfly Dust Spawn didn't know all this as it just brainlessly retaliated, constantly spurting out a bit of poison energy in a fixed interval.
Because of prior experience and not hastening the process, Evelynn found it easier to tackle the Pestilent Dragonfly Dust Spawn's poison. She felt that it was a good thing that she was a Martial Master Stage Cultivator. Otherwise, she knew that she would find it difficult to control the pace or defend against it as her energy would be used up before she could even completely refine this Low-Level King Grade Poison Essence.
Her defense was only possible because she had the strength to suppress the Pestilent Dragonfly Dust Spawn. That is why other youths couldn't replicate her absorption process but instead rely on slower yet safe methods that would take months and years to finish refining.
They would remain secluded the whole time.
She had to thank her husband for this as most of the process had been taken care of by him, like exhausting the Spirit Attribute Source and having its Will erased. Without these, she would in no way be carefree about this absorption process.
It was just like dining. Her husband had cooked food for her, and she only has to open her mouth, swallow it whole, and digest it to gain nutrition. It was an easy process that she felt if she failed; it was time to pack up and leave so that she would not continue to be a burden anymore.
She felt that it would be better if she waited for him to return to the Grand Sea Continent. It wasn't her inferiority complex acting up in a long while or even her selflessness awaking, but she simply did not want to burden him.
There was the other side to this story; that is, she wanted to be extremely selfish and attach herself to him through thick or thin until she died, and that was her underlying motivation to even cultivate to higher stages nowadays!
That feeling was intense and surprisingly made the task done as the refinement process became smoother!
Another four days passed in refinement before Evelynn finally completed refining the Pestilent Dragonfly Dust Spawn! She thoroughly began to concentrate on comprehending the extracted insights!
A comprehensive day passed, making it around a week from the time they closed themselves in seclusion.
Davis stood as he leaned over the wall. Evelynn didn't need his help anymore, and he backed out. In fact, she didn't even incur a semblance of an injury.
It was funny as he thought that she incurred damage from a Fifth Stage Poison Essence but not from a Seventh Stage Poison Essence. It made him feel that experience was indeed a significant factor that did wonders.
He looked at her frontal figure stay still without a single movement. Surrounding her was a verdant bloom of ashes that swirled around, making her seem as if she was an elemental wind fairy, but the truth was that she was a poisonous and devilish fairy.
The gap between that comparison made him smile, but his expression suddenly fell.
The heaven and earth energy around her started to tremble like they were rattled. Evelynn's green hair floated in a wavy manner once again to the chaotic changes in the atmosphere.
'This...!' Davis stopped leaning and looked at her figure with sheer dumbfoundedness.
The fact that the heaven and earth energy responded the third time meant she was about to comprehend Level Four Intent of Poison Laws!
