Chapter 93

~15 min read 2,856 words

Xiao Tao jumped directly into the glass tank, immersed herself in the Life-Type Spirit Power Nutrient Solution, and focused her mind to circulate her Spirit Power.

Actually, to be honest, Ge Bai couldn't quite understand Xiao Tao. She always felt that Xiao Tao wasn't as young and ignorant as she appeared, especially in terms of Spirit Power usage and skill mastery; she was shockingly proficient.

Not to mention Peach Fragrance; from Spirit-Restoring Peach to Spirit-Snatching Peach and now the Golden Powder Peach, these didn't look like newly learned skills, but rather like things she hadn't forgotten from before.

These thoughts of Ge Bai's only swirled in her own mind; she hadn't told anyone, including Da Liu, who cared about Xiao Tao the most.

She didn't know yet that she had already touched the edge of the truth; if she were to compare notes with Da Liu one day, she might really discover something.

Of course, that was a story for another time.

The most important thing right now was for Xiao Tao to condense the Golden Powder Peach.

Healing all injuries and quickly restoring all states to their peak—is this really a peach? This is a divine medicine!

Ge Bai stood outside the glass tank and mobilized her Spirit Sense to enhance her perception of Spirit Power fluctuations.

She could clearly feel that the Spirit Power nutrient solution in this glass tank was being rapidly absorbed by Xiao Tao, but at the same time, Xiao Tao was also rapidly consuming Spirit Power.

The whole peach was like an invincible vortex, frantically absorbing and devouring Spirit Power.

It really needed so much nutrient solution, Ge Bai sighed; just in the short while she had been watching, the Spirit Power Xiao Tao had absorbed was already more than her own Spirit Power.

But at this moment, Xiao Tao had only just grown the branch ready to bear fruit.

After a long time, a golden little fruit slowly condensed on Xiao Tao's branch, gathering into a solid form.

The little fruit on the branch grew bit by bit at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The fruit was imbued with a strong aura of Life-Type Spirit Power; even through the glass tank, Ge Bai could clearly feel it.

Fortunately, they were in the basement now, and the entire villa had been built using a large amount of materials that isolated Spirit Power diffusion, so it hadn't attracted too much attention.

Even so, Qian Dai on the third floor and Da Liu in the Spirit Power Room next door had both felt something unusual.

Qian Dai appeared beside Ge Bai in a flash?

"What fruit is Xiao Tao condensing? It smells so good!"

As soon as Qian Dai appeared, she asked Ge Bai impatiently, but her eyes were glued to Xiao Tao in the nutrient solution, unable to move away.

【Bai Bai, is it Xiao Tao? I feel a very familiar fluctuation of Life-Type Spirit Power.】【Qian Dai, help me out! I want to go see Xiao Tao.】 Da Liu, who was in the Spirit Power Room next door, couldn't get out himself, but he could transmit his voice to Ge Bai and Qian Dai.

Before Ge Bai could make a sound, Qian Dai used Space Shift to bring Da Liu to this room as well.

As soon as Da Liu appeared, he also stared at Xiao Tao without blinking.

"It's a Golden Powder Peach."

Da Liu said with certainty.

"I've seen Taoyaoniang take one out before."

Da Liu, who had reluctantly turned his head, looked at Ge Bai.

"Bai Bai, how did you manage to persuade Xiao Tao to condense a Golden Powder Peach?"

Ge Bai actually heard a sense of admiration in Da Liu's question.

"Ah? I just simply asked Xiao Tao if she could condense a Golden Powder Peach, what's wrong?"

Da Liu blinked his eyes. "That simple? Back then, I watched the White-headed Eagle pester Taoyaoniang for several months and give her a bunch of good things before Taoyaoniang reluctantly condensed one for him."

"Of course, Taoyaoniang's Golden Powder Peach was much more fragrant than this one of Xiao Tao's."

Da Liu looked back at Xiao Tao again, stretched his willow branches into the glass tank, stirred the nutrient solution, and added.

Ge Bai understood now; she tapped Da Liu's willow branch and explained with a smile.

"Maybe Xiao Tao knew that this Golden Powder Peach would end up being used by you or Qian Dai, so she didn't mind so much."

Qian Dai was confused listening from the side.

"Who is Taoyaoniang? Can this fragrant fruit be eaten? What are its effects? It feels like it's very powerful!"

Da Liu shook his head, automatically ignoring Qian Dai's first question.

"I actually don't know very well either. Taoyaoniang hates bearing fruit the most, so I didn't dare to ask; I just saw the White-headed Eagle walk away happily with the fruit in its mouth."

Seeing that Da Liu hadn't explained the matter of Taoyaoniang, Ge Bai also followed suit and ignored Qian Dai's question, directly giving the standard answer to the second question.

Qian Dai was actually just asking casually and had no intention of getting to the bottom of the Taoyaoniang matter.

She was actually more concerned about the fragrant fruit in front of her; after hearing Ge Bai's explanation, her eyes widened.

"My goodness! Is Xiao Tao this awesome?!"

Da Liu's reaction was much smaller; he didn't know how awesome Xiao Tao was now, but he had an idea of how awesome she would be when she grew to Taoyaoniang's level in the future.

Just as the few of them were talking, Xiao Tao opened her eyes in the nutrient solution, shook her branches, and the little golden fruit fell off.

Xiao Tao, holding the fruit, flapped her leaves and wiggled upward in the nutrient solution.

Ge Bai hurriedly reached out and scooped Xiao Tao out of the nutrient solution.

Xiao Tao shook herself hard in Ge Bai's palm, shook off the liquid on her body, and handed the little golden fruit to Ge Bai.

"Bai Bai, this is the Golden Powder Peach!"

Even with the support of the abundant Life-Type nutrient solution just now, Xiao Tao still looked a bit wilted.

Producing such a fruit was indeed too much pressure for her right now.

Ge Bai held Xiao Tao steadily with one hand and caught the little golden fruit Xiao Tao handed over with the other.

The fruit wasn't big; Ge Bai could easily pinch it with two fingers.

Qian Dai leaned in tightly, examining the fruit carefully, her face full of curiosity, her flower sword even swaying with a rhythmic feel.

Da Liu glanced at the Golden Powder Peach, wrapped his willow branches around Xiao Tao's leaves, and touched her soothingly.

"Alright, stop studying it. Qian Dai, put the Golden Powder Peach into your Space Bag, and don't sneak a bite."

Ge Bai handed the Golden Powder Peach directly to Qian Dai. Although she didn't know if the Golden Powder Peach would lose Spirit Power if left outside, she was certain that putting it in Qian Dai's Space Bag would be absolutely safe.

Qian Dai's Space Bag contained the power of space rules; whatever state an item was in when it entered, it would be in the same state when it came out.

Putting the Golden Powder Peach with Qian Dai meant she didn't have to worry about the life Spirit Power aura leaking out. As long as Qian Dai didn't sneak a bite herself, it was very safe, and it was also very convenient to take out whenever she wanted.

"I wouldn't sneak a bite!"

Qian Dai raised her head and argued; she was being underestimated!

At most, she would take it out and smell it quietly when no one was around.

Ge Bai glanced at Qian Dai. After being together for so long, didn't she know what this little orchid was like? She couldn't help but give a warning.

"This is a trump card prepared for the Jinggang No. 1 Middle School High School special recruitment battle; it's very important."

"I know, I know."

Qian Dai, as if seen through by Ge Bai, felt a bit embarrassed, shouted loudly, and quickly put the Golden Powder Peach into her Space Bag.

"Xiao Tao, do you want to go back into the nutrient solution for a while, or do you want to go back to the Spirit Awareness Space?" Ge Bai looked at the spiritless Xiao Tao and felt a bit heartbroken.

"I want to sleep, I'll go back to the Spirit Awareness Space to sleep."

Xiao Tao's answer was also listless.

Ge Bai didn't say a word; she touched Xiao Tao's head, moved her Spirit Sense, and sent her back to the Spirit Awareness Space.

By the way, she clicked on the Spirit Plant Cultivation Manual and flipped to Xiao Tao's page! Golden Powder Peach - Entry (50/100)

One Golden Powder Peach, and the skill mastery increased by 50?

Ge Bai was shocked, but thinking about Xiao Tao's consumption and looking at the remaining half of the Life-Type Spirit Power nutrient solution, it seemed it should indeed be so.

Seeing Xiao Tao return to the Spirit Awareness Space, Da Liu didn't linger outside either; he called Qian Dai to send him back to the Spirit Power Room to go into seclusion and practice.

Ge Bai opened the Spirit Plant Cultivation Manual; Da Liu's Spirit Power value had been rising rapidly over the past two days and had now reached Level 7 of the Mortal Spirit Realm. It was estimated that it wouldn't be long before he caught up with Qian Dai.

No wonder they all said that as long as there were resources, it wasn't difficult to quickly pile up a Pet Beast with high Spirit Power.

With Spirit Power resources maxed out, plus Da Liu's day-and-night cultivation, and using the high-tier version of the meditation technique given by the Longyou Master, it would be a ghost story if his Spirit Power value didn't rise quickly.

Coincidentally, Qian Dai's sparring Golden Silk Mice had also been delivered at this time.

Picking up the mouse cage at the door, Qian Dai and Ge Bai returned to the training ground on the third floor together.

Qian Dai, who had just been stimulated by Xiao Tao, was also rubbing her hands and full of energy.

You have to know, the little orchid was under great pressure.

There were only three spirit plants in the team. Originally, she thought she had only missed the first place by a slip, but who would have thought that Xiao Tao's healing and recovery talents were off the charts, and she might be a big shot who could save the whole team at any time.

Wouldn't that make her the bottom of the barrel? That wouldn't do.

Looking at the cage of Golden Silk Mice in Ge Bai's hand, Qian Dai's eyes were almost glowing green.

"Calm down, Qian Dai, Space Binding, these are your sparring partners, respect them a little."

Ge Bai sensed that Qian Dai's state was wrong, moved the mouse cage further away, and reminded Qian Dai; one shouldn't commit unnecessary slaughter when having nothing better to do.

"Oh, I know, Bai Bai."

Qian Dai urged, hurry up and let them out.

Ge Bai was a bit hesitant. If she had known Qian Dai would be so enthusiastic, why did she order Golden Silk Mice? Would two little fragrant pigs be more durable?

Facing Qian Dai's fiery gaze, Ge Bai glanced at the Golden Silk Mice in the cage; they looked healthy and active, so she closed the training room door and opened the mouse cage.

Forget it, she would keep a close eye on them. If it really didn't work, she would order two little fragrant pigs now. This group of Golden Silk Mice should be able to last for half an hour, right?

As soon as the mouse cage was opened, the 6 Golden Silk Mice scurried out and scattered in the training room, their movement speed not slow at all.

Qian Dai used Space Shift and hovered in the air in the center of the training room.

She targeted the lightest-colored, fattest-looking Golden Silk Mouse; this mouse ran relatively slowly.

Qian Dai mobilized her Spirit Power and aimed at the light-colored Golden Silk Mouse.

Pop.

The light-colored Golden Silk Mouse disappeared on the spot and was shifted by Qian Dai into the air 3 meters away.

"Squeak, squeak."

Ge Bai took a step forward, rushed over, and caught the Golden Silk Mouse falling from the air.

"Qian Dai! Catch it yourself next time you make a mistake!"

"I know!"

Qian Dai glanced in this direction, and seeing that the light-colored Golden Silk Mouse had been caught by Ge Bai, she didn't care anymore. Her Spirit Power kept circulating, and she turned to target another little mouse running past her eyes.

Just as she wanted to put this dizzy light-colored Golden Silk Mouse on the ground, Ge Bai seemed to remember something.

Ignoring the Golden Silk Mouse's struggle, she forcibly grabbed it and walked to the shelf on the side, pulled down several colored ropes of different colors from the shelf, picked out a red ribbon, and tied it to the right leg of this Golden Silk Mouse.

"Qian Dai, don't just pick on one; watch the color of the ribbon and take turns, okay!"

Ge Bai had also racked her brains for this group of sparring partners.

Qian Dai noticed what Ge Bai was doing, and just at this moment, her second attempt failed again.

Finding inspiration for Space Binding from the Space Shift skill—if one wasn't careful, the skill would turn into Space Shift.

The second little Golden Silk Mouse was again shifted into the air by Qian Dai.

This time Qian Dai had improved; she didn't wait for Ge Bai to rush over to catch it, but directly used the Space Shift skill on the falling little mouse, sending it into Ge Bai's hands.

Ge Bai took the opportunity to tie the second-colored ribbon onto the little mouse's leg.

Before long, all 6 little mice had ribbons of different colors tied on them.

Seeing that Qian Dai's practice was gradually getting on the right track, Ge Bai didn't say much more and stayed quietly in the training room to accompany Qian Dai.

Moving her Spirit Sense, she clicked on the Spirit Plant Cultivation Manual,

Space Shift - Mastery (191/200)

+1+1...

Could it be that she could push Space Shift to the Esoteric stage today?

Ge Bai raised her eyebrows, thinking with some mischievous fun.

But she still took out her mobile terminal, logged into the Spirit Plant Research Institute's resource library, and carefully browsed the list of Space-Time-type Spirit Power resources.

The number of selectable resources wasn't large; adding up all levels, there were less than 3 pages, which could be finished quickly.

For Level 1 Space-Time-type resources, there was only the Empty Meteor Fragment. Compared with Wind-type resources, the price of Empty Meteor Fragments that could provide the same Spirit Power value was three times higher.

There were two types of Level 2 Space-Time-type resources. One was the Time Fruit, which was still displayed in gray as out of stock. However, even if this fruit were in stock, Ge Bai wouldn't choose it.

This kind of fruit tended to improve the Spirit Power of spirit plants that used time power. Although space and time were inseparable, and Qian Dai had a high probability of awakening skills related to time power in the future, what helped her Spirit Power improvement more right now were Space-type resources.

Fortunately, the second type of Level 2 Space-Time-type resource in the resource library was space-oriented: the Lost Space Net.

Ge Bai had heard of this resource; the raw material before processing was the product of a skill after a Commander-level Space-type spider-type spirit beast.

In the resource library, this Lost Space Net was actually not limited in purchase. The Interstellar Alliance Spirit Plant Research Institute was indeed powerful.

This showed that they had a stable source of raw materials. How many Commander-level Space-type spider-type spirit beasts did they have to master to have such deep pockets? So much so that the price of this Level 2 space resource was not much higher than the price of Empty Meteor Fragments.

This was a major benefit for Ge Bai.

According to the method of equipping a Spirit Power Room that Lu Nan had told her before, the main material should be chosen from Level 4 Space-type resources.

Ge Bai flipped back two pages; there were Level 4 space resources, but they were so expensive that they could empty her savings.

If she only bought Level 1 and Level 2 space resources from the Spirit Plant Research Institute's resource library, and looked forward to the rewards of the Jinggang No. 1 Middle School High School special recruitment for the main materials, she could still have over 1 million Alliance Coins left.

This first place was truly a must-win.
