Chapter 1139: Xiao'Er Did Not Leave Any Food for Me
There was a flash of light.
Two peanut-sized Cleansing Bodhi appeared on Chen Xiaobei's palm. They looked very similar to the Star Moon Bodhi that they sold on earth.
These were, however, rounder and was glowing with a pure white brilliance.
"I have to hurry and put it with Little Fox's body!"
Chen Xiaobei then retrieved Demonic Fox's body from the Infinite Space Ring.
She still looked the same as she did when she was last alive. Pale and chalky. It was a painful sight.
Chen Xiaobei felt a sharp pain in his chest. He took in deep breaths to calm himself before he forced a smile and said, "Little Fox, you've suffered all these 18 years. Right now, we're close to avenging your family. Sleep in peace and rest. When Lady Nuwo gets back, I will consult her on how to save you! So, while we're waiting for her return, I will do all I can do increase my cultivation. When there's danger next time, I will use my own fists to protect you! I will not let you stand in front of me again! I promise that I will become stronger!"
The battle in Atlantis made Chen Xiaobei realize that his cultivation was not enough. If he wanted to protect his loved ones, he had to become stronger!
Then Chen Xiaobei placed one of the Cleansing Bodhi on Demonic Fox's chest.
Buzz...
Cleansing Bodhi appeared to have Spiritual Attribute. The moment it was in contact with Demonic Fox, it enveloped her whole body in the radiance.
Demonic Fox's tired, ashen face recovered some of its color, making her look like a person in deep sleep.
"Wow! What an incredible Cleansing Bodhi!"
Chen Xiaobei let out a sigh of relief. As long as he could preserve Demonic Fox's body, it would only be a matter of time before she was resurrected!
"Sweet dreams! I will wake you up soon!'
Chen Xiaobei groomed her hair carefully and placed her back into the Infinite Space Ring.
"Huh, why isn't this Cleansing Bodhi glowing? Why didn't its radiance cover me? Does it only work on the dead?" Chen Xiaobei pondered. "No! My ex Shixiong must have given it to be because it will be of great help to me. I'll put it aside first!"
Instead of putting it back in the Infinite Space Ring, Chen Xiaobei put in into the Seven Treasury Fragrant Pouch he carried around with him in his chest.
This was the fragrant pouch that Chang'e had made herself. It was supposed to prevent Chen Xiaobei from getting all kind of diseases and poison. But after so long, the effectiveness of the herbal medicine inside the fragrant pouch had worn off.
Chen Xiaobei peeled open the fragrant pouch, poured out the medicine inside and replaced it with the Cleansing Bodhi and then put it back in the folds of his clothes near his chest.
From the effect of Cleansing Bodhi, Chen Xiaobei knew that it would be a great help to him in the future. Now, he had no use of it yet.
"Alright! Now that everything is done, it's time to explore this place!"
Chen Xiaobei took in a deep breath.
Regardless of whatever happened in the past, a new path was set before him!
In life, we must always look forward! Charge forward! There is no turning back!
"Depart!"
With an excited heart, Chen Xiaobei did not know where to go so he just walked toward the direction of the sunrise in the North.
"Wait! I feel like I'm forgetting something..."
Chen Xiaobei ran back to where he was and shouted, "Xiao'er, you glutton! I told you to keep watch but you ran off and disappeared! If you don't come back now, I don't want you anymore!"
Swish!
Swish!
Swish!
Just as he had finished talking, a golden pea leaped into the air, bouncing off the ground toward Chen Xiaobei.
"Bro Bei! Don't leave me! I was just nearby! I did not go far!"
"Phew..." Chen Xiaobei could not help but smile at the sight.
Xiao'er was Primordial Lord of Heaven's Twelve Wings Golden Cicada, but right now, it was acting like a child in front of Chen Xiaobei—rebellious and reliant on Chen Xiaobei.
Xiao'er could be considered as Chen Xiaobei's companion that spent the most time with him. So, its relationship with him must be really close.
"Bro Bei, why are you suddenly angry then suddenly happy? That's so strange...." Xiao'er panted when he finally leaped onto Chen Xiaobei's shoulder.
"I was just pretending to be mad at you! How could I not want you?" Chen Xiaobei smiled. "But first, what good food did you find?"
"I found a few one star Spiritual Medicine and a two star Spiritual Medicine... This place is awesome! It's ten thousand times better than Earth!" Xiao'er said, high as a kite.
"Wow! You found a few Spiritual Medicines in just one day! This place really is awesome!" Chen Xiaobei then asked eagerly, "Oh, yeah, Xiao'er, how many did you leave for me?"
"Huh?" Xiaobei flinched then mumbled softly, "I... I got too excited and ate them all..."
"What the hell! You heartless little thing!" Chen Xiaobei whined, "The last time when I ate Shen Gongpao's Spiritual Item, I left a piece for you! But here you are, eating up all the Spiritual Medicines on your own! I will never leave anything for you next time!"
"No... Bro Bei, please don't get all worked up! I haven't even finished talking! You've already broken through to Celestial Cultivation. So, 1—2 stars Spiritual Medicines won't be able to help you increase your cultivation as much! Last time, after eating a one-star Spiritual Medicine, you sleep for one day and one night and your combat power or health would increase by 1,000. But now, if you do the same, you can only increase your combat power or health by 100! That wouldn't be worth it, right?"
Chen Xiaobei nodded after listening to Xiao'er's explanation.
It was like the Spiritual Stones.
After he broke through to Celestial Cultivation, he would have to either eat more one-star Spiritual Medicines or eat higher level Spiritual Medicines to be able to increase his combat power and health like he used to.
But if he ate too many one-star Medicines, he would need to sleep longer. This method was not suitable for Chen Xiaobei, right now.
"That is a reasonable explanation." Chen Xiaobei glared at Xiao'er. "But that doesn't justify the fact that you gobbled up everything! You could've at least left one for me! You're so mean..."
"Bro Bei! I'm still not done!" Xiao'er broke him off and said, "I didn't leave any one or two-stars Spiritual Medicines but I left one that was three-stars for you! With your cultivation now, you will only need to sleep for one day after eating a three-star Spiritual Medicine to increase your combat power by 1,000! It's ten times more effective than a one-star Spiritual Medicine! I left the best for you but you accuse me of being greedy and disloyal! Sob... Sob..."
Chen Xiaobei's eyes widened in surprise.
"Ok, ok. I was wrong! Come, bring me to the Spiritual Medicine! I really want to increase my cultivation now!"
