Just thinking about using it made Xiao Bai feel uncomfortable all over, as if she had been contaminated with something dirty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How should she use it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai circled around the Seed of Vital Essence twice, her fluffy tail unconsciously sweeping the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, her eyes lit up with inspiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve got it! Why not transform it into a Seed of Spiritual Jade!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A so-called Seed of Spiritual Jade was essentially like a spirit stone that could automatically nurture spiritual energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More precisely, it was like a portable ultra-miniature spiritual vein that continuously produced spiritual energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For an individual cultivator, it could greatly increase the concentration of spiritual energy around them, significantly boosting their cultivation speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this thing was useless for someone of her cultivation level, using it as an apology gift for Lin Muyu would be perfect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she was the professional bodyguard who failed to protect her little master… Thinking of this, Xiao Bai’s ears drooped down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The precious nature of a Seed of Spiritual Jade need not be mentioned, the conditions for creating one were extremely harsh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most crucial point was extracting a Seed of Vital Essence or Seed of Yin Essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this type of special secret technique could only be learned by their fox clan, it was an innate special talent of the fox clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Hehuan Sect, who were proficient in dual cultivation techniques, couldn’t master it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this was a forbidden technique of the fox clan. Currently, counting them all, only 3 foxes in the entire fox clan knew this spell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was the Fox Empress who ruled over the entire fox clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another was the High Priest of the Fox Clan who managed all fox clan affairs, which was Xiao Bai herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the third was the leader of the charm fox clan, Xiaomeihu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai had learned this extraction technique from Xiaomeihu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To learn this technique, she even slept with Xiaomeihu for a night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t get the wrong idea, it was just proper sleeping. She had always regarded Xiaomeihu as a younger sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just that Xiaomeihu, for some reason, always liked to cling to her. Even though she was already a leader herself, she still acted like a clingy little girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, to transform into a Seed of Spiritual Jade, the extracted Seed of Vital Essence had to be powerful enough to withstand the transformative power of supreme-grade spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Seed of Vital Essence from Ye Fan was indeed quite powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a full size larger than all the Seeds of Vital Essence she had seen at Xiaomeihu’s place, and the power contained within was much more substantial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai couldn’t help but be curious, why was Ye Fan’s Seed of Vital Essence so unique?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm, I still need 10 supreme-grade spirit stones.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of these supreme-grade spirit stones, Xiao Bai couldn’t help but click her tongue in distress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, managing various fox clan affairs was really costly in terms of spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t have much savings to begin with, and every single stone had to be carefully budgeted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, when Xinlian had captured her earlier, Xinlian didn’t demand she hand over these spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, with Xinlian’s abilities, she definitely wouldn’t have been able to keep them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, Xiao Bai’s 6 tails behind her swayed gently, and the tip of one tail elegantly traced through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small spatial crack appeared silently, with flickering points of light faintly visible within the fissure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, one tail reached into the crack and carefully extracted 10 supreme-grade spirit stones radiating rich spiritual energy, arranging them neatly in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She concentrated and gathered her energy, mobilizing the extremely powerful demonic energy within her body, and forcefully crushed these 10 supreme-grade spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, a massive amount of spiritual energy, almost condensed into physical form, erupted like a fountain with heart-palpitating fluctuations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Xiao Bai hurriedly increased her demonic energy output, firmly wrapping up this violent spiritual energy to prevent it from dispersing in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then quickly added the Seed of Vital Essence into the spiritual energy mass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two forces slowly merged under the restraint of her demonic energy. The process didn’t create too much turbulence, and everything seemed to proceed according to plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fox fire, ignite!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai called out softly, and one of her tails instantly turned fiery red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, a mystical purple-red flame rose from her fox tail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It enveloped both the wrapped spiritual energy and the Seed of Vital Essence, beginning to slowly roast them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, under the high-temperature roasting of the fox fire, both the massive spiritual energy and the Seed of Vital Essence began to violently surge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were like trapped beasts, frantically striking the prison cage formed by dense demonic energy, trying to escape this scorching confinement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But all of this was futile. Under Xiao Bai’s powerful demonic energy restraint, they could only keep colliding within the cage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, the violent momentum began to weaken, and the two forces started to slowly fuse together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Be good and merge together!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai’s lips curved into a confident smile as she once again increased the temperature of the fox fire and the output of her demonic energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, the massive spiritual energy suddenly contracted, as if it had found its home, and completely merged into the Seed of Vital Essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, this originally golden-colored seed began to gradually grow larger, with spiritual energy and vital essence power interweaving and flowing within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until it finally formed an egg-sized, jade-green seed with a faint halo surrounding its surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mission accomplished! This fox is indeed quite capable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai looked at the Seed of Spiritual Jade before her, her face showing a proud expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She succeeded on her first attempt at smelting, much better than a certain fox who only succeeded once after thousands of attempts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After succeeding, Xiao Bai gently picked up the Seed of Spiritual Jade with one tail and examined it carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surface of this Seed of Spiritual Jade was smooth and translucent, without a trace of impurity, with a gentle luster flowing across it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, mild and mellow spiritual energy continuously emanated from within, surrounding her and making her feel very comfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not bad, not bad. The fox fire really did burn away all traces of that disgusting guy’s aura.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai nodded in satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this Seed of Spiritual Jade had even the slightest trace of Ye Fan’s aura remaining, she would definitely sell it without hesitation, even if it meant losing some spirit stones!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I wonder if that little girl will be a bit happier when she receives this gift?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of Lin Muyu’s pale little face, Xiao Bai’s fox ears unconsciously drooped down again, and she murmured to herself with a hint of worry in her tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Time to wake up~”\u003C\u002Fp>",1344,"2026-06-06T16:56:29.434Z",1,"novelbin.me","02ffec95bee01ab42543acc13eb5c9f789acfede47fe3282670596f34fd280f9","i-a-villainous-cannon-fodder-pick-up-the-female--chapter-88","i-a-villainous-cannon-fodder-pick-up-the-female--chapter-86",149,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-a-villainous-cannon-fodder-pick-up-the-female--cover.jpg"]
