Family Cultivation: I Farm and Raise Fish under the Sea-Chapter 46 - Earth Origin Spiritual Nectar

Chapter 46: Chapter 46 Earth Origin Spiritual Nectar

Seeing that victory was certain, Lu Li approached the Demon Beasts and slowly began, “You all go to the outer edges of the mountain range and lie in wait to ambush the last two Giant Toothed Whales that haven’t returned. Those two are your spoils of war from this battle.”

“Is Your Majesty serious?”

The Blackwater Zhang patriarch’s face lit up with joy.

Though they coveted the body of the Barbaric Beast underground more, nobody dared to suggest it.

Now, hearing these words, the spirit of the gathered Demon Beasts was reignited.

The five clans of Demon Beasts setting out to slay the two Giant Toothed Whales stood a great chance of victory.

Lu Li nodded, “When I speak, I mean it. Go…”

This was his plan all along; without sharing the loot, commanding the Demon Beasts in the future would likely be challenging, and he wouldn’t need to personally exert effort to hunt those two Giant Toothed Whales…

“Your subordinates obey!”

The Demon Beasts roared in response, their fervor echoing mightily through the depths of the ocean.

Soon after, the three Clan Leaders led the later-stage Qi Cultivation Demon Beasts toward the outer mountains.

Watching the three Clan Leaders lead the horde of Demon Beasts into the distance, Lu Li then went to the side of the three Giant Toothed Whales and activated the Demon-Refining Pot to collect them.

“This haul brings in a substantial amount of Spiritual Liquid, enough to sustain for quite a long time.”

He was very satisfied with this.

He then put away the Demon-Refining Pot and swam toward the cave entrance on a nearby peak.

Before long, he arrived at a darkened cave entrance.

The entrance was about sixty to seventy feet in diameter, oval-shaped, and bare all around, devoid of any seaweed or suchlike.

Lu Li scanned the vicinity with his Divine Sense and discovered no anomalies.

Moreover, the tunnel inside was very long; his Divine Sense couldn’t even reach the bottom.

Gathering his thoughts, he dove headfirst into the cave.

Upon entering, he immediately felt darkness envelop him, with threads of coldness seeping through the surrounding waters.

He swam patiently toward the depths of the tunnel.

Time flowed slowly, and a quarter-hour passed.

The rocky walls around him began to shine with increasing luster, resembling exquisite works of art.

Lu Li swam forward with patience.

Suddenly, he saw the end of the tunnel ahead.

“At last, I’ve reached the bottom.”

A thrill of joy crossed his mind.

He then sped up and swam towards the tunnel’s end.

Approaching the cave entrance, Lu Li dived forward and entered into a spacious cavern.

The cavern spanned dozens of feet, filled with irregularly shaped rocks, and the Spiritual Energy here was exceptionally abundant, oddly so.

Gigantic stalactites hung from the ceiling, and at the center was a depression where a black object was quietly resting.

Seeing this item sparked a light in Lu Li’s eyes; it was not much different from the fragment of the Immortal Treasure Spirit in his hand, albeit slightly smaller.

“Correct, it’s this item. If I put it in my Storage Bag, this old ancestor will be able to absorb the remnant soul inside.”

Just then, the voice of the Immortal Treasure Spirit echoed in his ear.

Without hesitation, Lu Li advanced, picked up the item casually, put it in his Storage Bag, and then swam towards the cave’s exit.

It wasn’t long before Lu Li reached the outside of the peak, looking thoughtfully at the towering mountain rising from the sea.

He then swam slowly toward the sea surface.

Moments later, he reached the surface of the ocean.

He transformed back into human form, surveying his surroundings.

This was a small deserted island, lush with vegetation and abundant with birds and animals, brimming with vibrant life, yet it had no Spirit Veins, and the Spiritual Energy was exceptionally weak.

Lu Li leaped onto the edge of the deserted island.

He carefully sensed something and slowly flew toward the island’s center.

It was not long before his gaze brightened; he sensed an aura similar to that of an underwater cave, which was faint, as if it were on the verge of disappearing any moment.

He followed the scent and flew forward.

Suddenly, he arrived in front of a small cave entrance.

After a closer inspection, he discovered a trace of Demon Energy lingering, but it was not strong, only about the level of late-stage Qi Cultivation.

He took out a treasured cauldron and placed it above his head, then walked toward the entrance of the cave.

“Ssst…”

At that moment, the Demon Beast within the cave seemed to discover the intrusion and charged out right away.

Lu Li focused his gaze.

What emerged was a giant pangolin Demon Beast, clad in golden scales and with eyes filled with malevolence aimed directly at Lu Li.

Lu Li promptly drew out the Aminokaze and slashed fiercely with his sword. The sword’s light, like a rainbow, swiftly reached the creature’s head.

“Ahh…”

Only a scream was heard as the pangolin demon beast’s head was severed from its body, revealing a pool of deep red blood on the ground.

“There are demon beasts here even without a spirit vein?”

He was somewhat puzzled.

After killing the demon beast, he made his way down the passage. Before long, he traversed a narrow corridor and arrived at a small underground cave, where the odd scent grew stronger.

Lu Li followed the scent and fixed his gaze in its direction.

He saw that at the center of the cave, there was a shallow pit containing a clump of milky white liquid.

The liquid was crystal clear and shrouded in wafting mists of aura, with a thick and fragrant aroma lingering in the air, extremely peculiar.

“Could this be… Earth Origin Spiritual Nectar?”

Lu Li could hardly believe it, his face full of astonishment.

Moving closer to observe, the closer he got, the more intense the fragrance became. The spirit milk appeared milky white with a radiant luster circulating within it; it truly was the second-order heavenly material and earthly treasure described in the Jade Scroll—Earth Origin Spiritual Nectar.

Just two drops of this substance could restore all the mana of a Qi Cultivation perfection cultivator, and even a layer or so for those in the Foundation Establishment Stage, remarkably extraordinary.

Once he had confirmed it several times, Lu Li was overjoyed.

It seemed that the pangolin was just an ordinary beast that stepped into the ranks of demon beasts after obtaining the heavenly material and earthly treasure.

The amount of Earth Origin Spiritual Nectar was rather astounding; it likely would not run out for dozens of years.

He hastily took out a few exquisitely made porcelain bottles, specially crafted for holding heavenly materials and earthly treasures, then crouched down and began to pour the spirit milk from the ground into the bottles.

In a short while, he had entirely collected the spirit milk from the ground, filling ten or so bottles—about ten liters in total.

After he had collected all the Earth Origin Spiritual Nectar from the small pit, wisps of aura began to emerge slowly, gathering around the area.

“It seems that in a few hundred years, a new batch will form.”

Lu Li watched the situation on the ground, quite amazed.

He then set up a layer of simple restrictions around the area and went to the entrance of the passage to use an array plate to set up a simple Mysterious Formation. Only after doing all this did he leave the cave.

Passing through the passage, he followed the original path back and quickly arrived at the seashore.

He then carefully observed the surroundings, memorizing the location deep in his mind.

Finally, he plunged into the sea, transforming into a giant turtle and swam towards the depths of the ocean floor.

Meanwhile, as Lu Li was returning to the Spirit Turtle Basin, thousands of miles away on the ocean surface.

Two gaunt figures stood at the bow of their boat, looking a bit desolate.

“Have we yet to find that thief’s trail?”

Chen Tianqi felt the discomfort in his right arm, a cold gleam flashed in the corner of his eye, and endless hatred welled up in his heart.

“Cousin, that kid is very cunning; he hasn’t shown his face for so long, as if he disappeared.”

A green-robed Taoist beside him had a cold expression.

“Sigh… Lately, demon beasts have become harder to hunt down, and most of the family resources are with Chen Wuluo. How much can we even get…”

Chen Tianqi sounded somewhat dejected.

“At this rate, not to mention Foundation Establishment, we won’t even be able to afford the medicine pills to heal our wounds.”

The green-robed man was silent for a moment before offering some comfort, “The wisdom of demon beasts at the late stage of Qi Cultivation is increasingly growing, making them not as easy to hunt as before. This is the case throughout this sea area. We should make plans soon.”

Chen Tianqi nodded, then neither of them spoke again.

Not far from this sea area, Lu Yuling and Lu Heng, along with their party, were also somewhat distressed, their faces showing a bit more weathering.

“Second Brother, let’s stop demon hunting for a while, shall we? The profits are getting lower and lower. Maybe we should try a different water area?”

Lu Yuling frowned.

Since she stepped into the late Qi Cultivation stage, her need for spirit stones had greatly increased, especially now that she had acquired a spirit beast, the current profits could hardly maintain her cultivation.

Hearing this, Lu Heng also showed a worried look: “We even lost a family sponsor in the last battle. It’s becoming increasingly difficult…”

“Little sister has also saved up some spirit stones, right? Why not choose a skill to try out, hunting demons on the sea is not a long-term solution.”

Lu Yuling nodded at the suggestion, not saying anything more.

…

In the Spirit Turtle Basin, inside a secret chamber of the cave.

Lu Li directly awoke the ancestor Kong Shan.

A Spiritual Ape Soul suddenly appeared inside the secret chamber.

Its soul body seemed to have deepened a bit, no longer as ephemeral as before, and its eyes were clearer.

“Ancestor, how is it going?”

His eyes conveyed a trace of anticipation.

The Spirit Monkey nodded: “Bring a blank Jade Scroll, and the ancestor will inscribe it for you.”

Hearing this, Lu Li immediately took out a Jade Scroll from his storage bag and placed it in front of the Spirit Monkey.

The Spirit Monkey immediately began to cast spells, its hands dancing, and the soul body pulsated. After a while, it stopped.

“It’s done. The ancestor reminds you, if your essence, energy, and spirit have not reached their peak, you must not cultivate, or it would be dangerous to your life. For now, you can familiarize yourself with the preliminary cultivation technique, which will benefit you greatly.”

“Preliminary cultivation technique?”

Lu Li nodded, slightly puzzled, and picked up the Jade Scroll, pressing it against his forehead.
