Chapter 592: Chapter 264: Critical Intelligence, Mutated Ancient Profound Vine, Joy Sect (Part 3)

"This Ancient Profound Vine actually grows by absorbing the essence blood of its host?!"

Recalling what Grandmaster Yu mentioned.

The Ancient Profound Vine had once fallen into the hands of the Demon Race.

Could it be.

The Ancient Profound Vine mutated because of that:

"With the Demon Race’s methods, will this Ancient Profound Vine drain all my Qi Blood?!"

The celebration is approaching fast.

If he were to appear in front of everyone looking like a skeleton,

it would not only hit the morale, but also certain scheming individuals would immediately start plotting, possibly putting the Fu Family in danger. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Fu Changsheng suddenly looked towards the Secret Chamber next door.

Strictly speaking.

The clone is also a part of him:

"Surely the Ancient Profound Vine isn’t so picky, right?"

With a thought.

The door of the Secret Chamber rumbled open.

Then next.

The stone door on the opposite side also slowly opened.

Having been in seclusion for over ten years.

The clone that had successfully broken through to the Fourth-Layer Foundation Establishment slowly walked out.

Looking at the face nine-tenths similar to his own.

Fu Changsheng felt a bit dazed.

But he quickly commanded:

"Expel the essence blood and feed the Ancient Profound Vine."

The clone said nothing more.

With a wave of a Sword Point, thunder flashed across his right arm, a cut as long as a palm opened, blood gushing out incessantly.

Drip, drip.

The blood fell onto the Ancient Profound Vine.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak"

The Ancient Profound Vine actually let out a cheer.

It abandoned Fu Changsheng.

As if the clone’s essence blood was more delicious, like a Spiritual Snake, it wound around the clone’s wound, with a continuous flow of blood entering the Ancient Profound Vine, freeing Fu Changsheng instead.

"Hmm~"

The Ancient Profound Vine was too excessive in its absorption.

The clone grunted.

But didn’t even furrow his brow.

A full half-tea’s time passed.

The clone’s entire essence blood had been drained, turning deathly pale pale:

"Still not enough?!"

Fu Changsheng frowned.

However.

At this moment, the Ancient Profound Vine buzzed with a gentle tremor, finally releasing the clone; at the same time, its Aerial Root grew to about a foot in length.

Fu Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief and said to the clone:

"You’ve worked hard."

The clone nodded slightly.

Turned around and returned to the opposite Secret Chamber, rumbling, and the chamber door closed instantly.

Fu Changsheng waved his sleeve.

The Yellow Stone Medicine Garden hovered in mid-air.

Just as he was about to plant the Ancient Profound Vine in it.

The Ancient Profound Vine gave a gentle buzz and tremor.

Then next.

That newly grown Aerial Root shot toward him like a Spirit Arrow; Fu Changsheng intended to dodge, but from this Aerial Root, he sensed a vast Life Force:

"Could it be...."

Recalling the intelligence mentioning that after refining his clone, he gained a hundred years of longevity.

It appears likely this is related to it.

Fu Changsheng instantly did not obstruct.

Buzz!

The Aerial Root instantly embedded itself into his Danzhong Acupoint.

Boom!

In the next instant.

He felt a cool yet mighty Life Essence Qi spreading throughout his body.

This Life Essence Qi flowed like a Spiritual Spring.

As it passed through his internal organs, the original dim Spirit Light on them regained its luster, as if they were being refined anew.

And his meridians, originally slightly dry and obstructed due to the loss of essence blood, were now, under the nourishing Life Essence Qi, becoming like broadened Spirit Channels, more resilient, unimpeded, with Spiritual Power coursing freely, unblocked.

As the Life Essence Qi circulated through his body.

Fu Changsheng could clearly sense every inch of his body being transformed and strengthened by this mighty force.

His longevity seemed like a Spirit Candle ignited by Spiritual Fire, steadily increasing, each growth making him feel his Life Force more exuberant.

In the end, his lifespan increased by a hundred full years!

In other words.

He now had three hundred and ninety years of lifespan, while a Great Cultivator of the Purple Mansion has only five hundred. Currently, he is just a little over sixty, still having more than three hundred years ahead.

Originally, he was always hastily dealing with miscellaneous affairs.

Now.

He could settle his mind.

Currently.

The family has already been promoted to the Eighth-Grade, to a certain extent, now under the Court’s protection, he can fully shift his focus to the family’s development.

Of course.

This doesn’t mean.

He will give up cultivation here and now.

On the contrary.

He needs more time to consolidate, refine True Liquid, and lay down the most perfect Foundation Establishment Dao Foundation, and at this moment, he is confident that he can at least form a Middle-Upper Grade Golden Core in the future.

Once Fu Changsheng composed himself.

He first planted the Ancient Profound Vine into the Yellow Stone Medicine Garden, which now contained only Foundation Establishment Pill and the Spirit Gathering Tree.

The Foundation Establishment Pill was what he planted during his time at the relics of the Sect in Penglai Mountain.

Moreover, every time he entered the Training Room, he brought the Yellow Stone Medicine Garden with him; currently, the Foundation Establishment Pill already has over eighty years of medicinal age, and it will mature into medicinal use in another decade or so.

Buzz!

After planting the Ancient Profound Vine.

The interface vibrated.

Surprisingly, a line of text appeared:

[Companion Spirit Vine Medicinal Age: 100 years]

Eh?

Fu Changsheng was taken aback.

His previous Spirit Pets were never specifically listed by the system, yet the Ancient Profound Vine was unique: "It seems this Ancient Profound Vine truly is no ordinary thing."

Recalling the Aerial Root that had grown before.

Fu Changsheng murmured:

"Could it be that each time this Ancient Profound Vine grows an Aerial Root, I gain a hundred years of lifespan?!"

If it’s true.

Then he should cultivate it well.

Cultivation is precisely for longevity; if by cultivating the Ancient Profound Vine well he can achieve that goal, then why should he take risks everywhere?

He meticulously inscribed the process of the Ancient Profound Vine growing an Aerial Root onto the jade scroll, taking a closer look, and recalling the information that mentioned:

"Could it be that this Ancient Profound Vine, by devouring the essence blood of people with the Thunder Spiritual Root attribute, can mature and grow an Aerial Root?!"
