Squeak, squeak!\" The little white fox struggled out from Chen Ye’s arms, calling continuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vine heard the sound and began to squirm, extending a small tendril that kept shaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little white fox jumped out from Chen Ye’s embrace, approached the tendril, and kept chirping incessantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little White, feed it this pill.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye said softly to the little white fox, taking out a small jade bottle from his bosom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside was a Second Tier Healing Elixir called the Hundred Wood Ginseng Pill, obtained from Pharmacist Xu of the Medicine King Valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was expensive, and Chen Ye only had this one bottle left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little white fox nodded repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It took the Hundred Wood Ginseng Pill from Chen Ye’s hand and tossed it toward the body of the Vine King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the Vine King had no consciousness, it knew this was good stuff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the vine squirmed, it extended a tendril deep into the pill bottle, absorbing the pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For ordinary cultivator, just swallowing one pill would quickly heal physical injuries, but the Vine King’s body was so large it needed to consume a whole bottle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the Vine King’s body visibly healed quite a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hiss...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye clicked his tongue in amazement, this demon plant’s evolutionary direction was truly bizarre, capable of growing so many tendrils.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If used to punish a bad child like Zhang Chuxi who loves to lie, it would certainly be a sharp tool!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quickly, a chill ran down Chen Ye’s spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shouldn’t have had such thoughts... It must be from inhaling too much miasma, causing his mind to become confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye steadied his mind and said to the little white fox:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little White, quickly have its kin enter my Spirit Beast Bag... As for the Vine King, transform into tendrils and hide on me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little white fox quickly relayed the message to the Vine King truthfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Vine King indeed listened to the little white fox’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, the vines in the entire pit squirmed crazily, finally transforming into a small tendril, with a five-pointed star painted on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye had always thought tendrils were just the Vine King’s transformation, in fact, this was its true form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached out to take the tendril, and it wriggled flexibly into his clothes, where he could feel something indeterminate moving inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye’s scalp tingled immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One must know,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>if the Vine King had evil intentions, it could easily take his life...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, this demon plant had basically no intelligence, obedient to the little white fox, it probably wouldn’t harm him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just to be safe, Chen Ye planned to learn a contract method someday to simply contract the Vine King directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this way, he became thrilled—if the Vine King could transform into tendrils hidden on him, wouldn’t that mean he could use the Vine King’s tendrils to attack anytime, anywhere?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This would be even better than a Second Tier top-grade magical treasure!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye felt a thrill in his heart: \"Little White, is the Vine King male or female?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little fox squatted on the ground, its big tail swayed confusingly: \"Squeak?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem. Just asking out of curiosity.\" Chen Ye put on a righteous expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little fox looked at Chen Ye suspiciously and began to explain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turns out, strictly speaking, the Man-eating Vine clan has no gender.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or rather, this clan is all female and can give birth to offspring on its own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It doesn’t develop thoughts like ordinary demon beasts. In fact, there’s no difference from regular plants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just that, long exposure to Spiritual Qi and the Tao Stele of the Wood Domain developed some minimal wisdom, much like a spiritual artifact gaining a spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye felt relieved after hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Vine King had thoughts and was male, wouldn’t it be equivalent to having a man always on him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, the Vine King averted all of this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truly a top-notch contract beast...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subsequently,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye smoothly stored all the other members of the Man-eating Vine clan into the Spirit Beast Bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Currently, all Qi Cultivation-stage demon vines of the Man-eating Vine clan were wiped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only four Foundation Establishment Stage Man-eating Vines were left, which could easily fit into the Spirit Beast Bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the Tao Stele of the Wood Domain, it was even simpler, just store it directly in the Storage Bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye discovered that the Vine King seemed to have undergone some mutation, as no other Man-eating Vine could transform into tendrils, except for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm? If it were just a transformation technique, by rights, the Foundation Establishment Stage demon vines should be capable of transforming... Why can only the Vine King transform?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye pondered secretly as he felt the tendrils on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only then that he realized, perhaps the tendrils are the mutated true form of the Vine King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This form allowed the Vine King to break free from the constraints of demon plants and move more freely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye mused over the cool and slippery feeling of the Vine King’s tendril in his bosom, his thoughts racing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forcibly taking it would be too conspicuous and leave hidden risks, especially since Luo Heng had already identified him...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little White, tell the Vine King.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye quickly whispered to the little white fox on his shoulder,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have it make a big commotion now, feign an attempt to break free and escape. Let those few vines struggle desperately, collapse a few rocks, then suddenly retract its aura to create an illusion that it’s already fled.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1141,"2026-06-06T06:09:13.803Z",1,"novelbin.me","fb13cb422cbcb6acfe40aa2a2a7483e7ecce8d4ffb493befb0a3c54d2d48095a","longevity-begins-from-raising-disciples-chapter-520","longevity-begins-from-raising-disciples-chapter-518",686,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flongevity-begins-from-raising-disciples-cover.jpg"]
