Craziness of Devouring

It gradually got dark .

She had failed to get an Internal Dan of Chilian Snake, and she was in prostration, so it would be very unwise for her to travel in the forest .

As a result, before the sun completely sank below the horizon, Yun Wu started retracing the previous route of that Iron-Clad Snake, planning to spend the night in its nest .

"Elder White, you're an elf of Sorcery Tribe's sacred items, so you must know of the Sorcery Tribe, don't you?" on her way to the nest, Yun Wu couldn't help recalling something, so she asked .

"Of course I do . But if you were referring to the current Sorcery Tribe, then I don't know about it either and I can't answer your question . "

"Then what was the prior Sorcery Tribe like?

What kind of power is that sorcery power?

And why do I have this so-called sorcery?" Yun Wu took advantage of this opportunity and spilled out all her questions .

Usually, no matter what she asked this old man, he would either say that he couldn't answer her because she had no bond with him, or fall asleep .

Today he was so willing to answer her questions, so she seized this opportunity .

Elder White paused for a while, then said, "You little girl . Are you trying to fish for information from me?"

"Tell me, please . I've already found a way to revive my body anyway, and it's only a matter of time before I bond myself to the sacred item . "

"Do you think you can forge the bond whenever you want? That's easy for you to say," though Elder White said these words, there was a tinge of amus.e.m.e.nt in his tone .

This girl had managed to wake him up after he slept for over a thousand years, so he naturally hoped that she would be able to forge a bond with the sacred item .

In that case, he wouldn't have to stay in the necklace all the time, and he at least could go outside for a stroll .

"Are you saying that there are some other requirements apart from reviving my body?" Yun Wu frowned .

This bond was so tricky . But this was the only way to become a summoner, so no matter what requirements there were, she would fulfill all of them .

"Of course, there are requirements, but I can't tell you for the moment . As regards those questions you asked, maybe I can give you some information . "

Yun Wu's eyes lit up – that would be better than giving her nothing, "Then tell me . "

"The Sorcery Tribe is an offshoot of the ancient immortals . All members of the Sorcery Tribe possess powers that ordinary people cannot imagine, and sorcery power was one of them . The reason why you have it is because half of your blood is Sorcery-Tribe blood, so it's very normal that you have sorcery power in you .

'An offshoot of immortals?'

'I'm half Sorcery-Tribe?'

Yun Wu was a little surprised, but this hadn't gone far beyond her expectation – she had a sacred item of Sorcery Tribe on her; she had been born with memories; her body was dead yet she could still bleed and feel pain like normal people could .

If she had Sorcery-Tribe blood on her, then it would explain everything .

However, if so, then it would suggest that her natural mother was a member of the Sorcery Tribe .

'But why would a member of Sorcery Tribe who had power unimaginable to common people marry a mortal and be his concubine?'

However hard she tried, Yun Wu still couldn't figure this out .

But, she did figure out one thing – the queen must have some kind of relation with the Sorcery Tribe, and the reason why she had tried to poison her must have something to do with her natural mother .

But where had her natural mother gone?

Had she been caught?

Had she returned to Sorcery Tribe?

Or had she been killed?

It seemed that she would have to pay a visit to this queen of Zhou Dynasty if the occasion arose .

Yet at this time, Elder White resumed his talking, "But I have detected your body before, and I found that the sorcery power in you is very thin . It shouldn't have been aroused, but previously you had awoken the purest sorcery power between the heaven and the earth . It was so strange that a half-breed like you could have awoken sorcery power that was so pure . "

While making these remarks, Elder White himself gradually felt that was indeed very weird .

But Yun Wu, who had been listening to him, felt somewhat unconvinced .

'What's wrong with being a half-breed?

In modern times, people of mixed race are the most popular, okay?'

Night fell .

Finally, in prostration, Yun Wu made it to the nest of that Iron-Clad Snake .

It was just a fairly large cave .

There was no gra.s.s concealing the entrance of the cave, and there was no sign of any other magic beasts nearby the cave . It seemed that this area was like that Iron-Clad Snake's exclusive backyard .

After taking a Legendary Luminous Pearl out of the Storage s.p.a.ce, Yun Wu walked into the cave .

The cave was pretty deep, but Yun Wu eventually chose a position near the entrance, because that rank smell in the air deep in the cave was the same as that of the snake, and she found it unbearable .

It was late at night .

"Guh-luh-luh!" the sound of her stomach rumbling was heard in the cave .

Yun Wu, who had been sitting cross-legged and performing Qi circulation, finally opened her eyes . She stroked her stomach resignedly, "I'm starving . "

She hadn't had anything for a full day and her body was in severe prostration . She felt as if the gap between her chest and her back had been considerably narrowed .

But Long Qingxie had all the food that she had previously prepared .

'Long Qingxie, where the h.e.l.l are you? You said that you would find me . Do you know what time it is?'

Long Qingxie had said that he could sense her position, but it had been a full day, yet he was nowhere to be seen . Yun Wu couldn't help looking into the outside of the cave with a frown on her face .

However, what she didn't know was that the "Blood Connector" he had planted in her body had been erased the moment sorcery power woke up in her .

Originally, Long Qingxie had been rapidly coming for her . At the time when the "Blood Connector" was erased, his face drastically changed .

The disappearance of Blood Connector meant the death of its host .

But he didn't believe that she would have died so easily, because she was the woman that he had fell for, and how was it possible that the woman he had fell for would kick the bucket so easily?

But without the help of Blood Connector, his search for her was completely aimless, just like trying to find a needle in an ocean .

At present, in the darkness, that white figure was still persistently searching for her .

"Jingle – "

After midnight .

Yun Wu, who had been in a light sleep, abruptly opened her eyes .

'What was that sound?'

"Jingle – "

Yun Wu waggled her ears . Then she suddenly turned her head back and look at the depths of the cave where the source of the sounds was .

The cave was ablaze with the light of the Legendary Luminous Pearl .

Yun Wu stood up, followed the sound and slowly walked towards the depths of the cave .

She had already checked the cave and there shouldn't be any other creatures in it .

However, Yun Wu had barely arrived at the depths of the cave when a brilliant colorful light was emitted from a hidden corner .

The light was so strong that it dazzled her .

"What the h.e.l.l is this thing?"

After about more than ten seconds, the intense light finally became subdued .

It was at this moment that Yun Wu saw clearly that in the hidden corner there was a black fruit tree with trunk as thick as a fist . And the sources of those flickering lights were seven fruits yielded by the tree . All the seven fruits were about the size of a mulberry and each of them had its own respective color different from that of the others .

'There was actually a plant in the nest of an Iron-Clad Snake?'

Every time the Iron-Clad Snake breathed, it would spew out poisonous fog, so there was no plants around its cave at all .

Unexpectedly, at the depths of its nest, there was a small fruit tree .

However, at this very moment, in this cave filled with foul odor, seven different faint fragrances given off by those fruits were smelled . The fragraces were so tempting that they had given Yun Wu a good appet.i.te after she took only one sniff .

Was it because she was too hungry?

Yun Wu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and subdued an urge to pick the fruits .

Immediately, she mobilized her consciousness and established a connection with the Soaring Dragon Scroll, planning to find out what the tree was .

When the Soaring Dragon Scroll failed to offer her any information about them, a flicker of amazement crossed Yun Wu's eyes .

'No record? How come there was no record of it?’

Soaring Dragon Scroll doc.u.mented everything on the Shenzhou continent . If there's no record about this tree in Soaring Dragon Scroll, then what the h.e.l.l is it?'

"Girl, what's this smell in the air?" at this time, Elder White's voice was heard .

"I don't know either, Elder White . Look! What do you think is that?" Yun Wu hurriedly pointed at the small black tree in the corner .

It was silent in the necklace . Elder White seemed to be contemplating .

After a while, Elder White said in a slightly apologetic tone, "It looks very familliar, but I'm too old to recall it . "

'Even Elder White doesn't know?'

"But, girl, this odor is very weird . It may attract a tide of beasts here . You'd better think about what you should do next . "

"A tide of beasts? What's a stream of beasts?" Yun Wu was surprised .

At this time, "Roar ~ "

"Roar ~ roar ~ "

The roars of magic beast came over from a distance .

Before long, all the magic beasts in this area seemed to have become excited . Ripples of roars spread through the whole forest .

Judging by the sound, it seemed that a lot of magic beasts were already on their way to this cave . . .

'Haven't the fragraces started spreading just now? How come it caused such a fuss so soon?

d.a.m.n! What variety of fruit tree is this?'

Yun Wu was speechless with resignation .

But soon, she took a dagger and a golden flowerpot out of the Storage s.p.a.ce, bent over and started digging the little black tree .

"What are you doing, girl?"

"Dig it up and take it with me . "

'Even the Soaring Dragon Scroll and Elder White have no idea what this is, so it must be something uncommon .

I have to take this good stuff before leaving . '

After transplanting the tree into the flowerpot, Yun Wu focused her attention on it and neatly sent that little fruit tree into her Storage s.p.a.ce .

The fruit tree went in smoothly .

But the seven fruits of different colors failed to enter and fell onto her palm .

"Girl, these fruits contain very powerful elemental origins . The level of your Bracelet Storage s.p.a.ce is too low to be able to contain them . You might as well throw them away . As long as you have the tree, you will have another chance . "

"Throw them away? That'll be such a waste!" Yun Wu frowned .

"Roar ~ roar ~ "

Outside, the roars of those flocks of magic beasts were getting clearer!

Yun Wu frowned . Suddenly, a crazy idea flashed across her mind, "Elder White, what if I eat these fruits?"

"These fruits contain powerful elemental origins . If you manage to absorb them after ingesting the fruits, you will gain the power of those origins . But you're absolutely not ready for this, girl . You won't be able to survive that, not with your current physical conditions," Elder White said in a deep voice .

But right after he finished the last word, Yun Wu raised her head and swallowed the seven fruits of different colors in her hand at once .

"Girl! Are you insane!" Elder White said in consternation .

Yun Wu actually gave a crazy laugh, "Elder White, there's no need for you to be so startled . You've seen me being crazy before . Besides, you said it yourself – if I manage to absorb it, I'll get the power of origins . "

"The premise is your body can endure it . With your current strength, the power of those fruits is far beyond your tolerance . And you swallowed the seven of them at once . Were you trying to burst yourself?"

"Elder White, you forgot that my body is already dead . What else can possibly make it die a second death?"
