Chapter 1058: Lu Zhiruo’s Miraculous Encounter
Translator: Lordbluefire
Lu Zhiruo worshipped Sun Mo a lot. She also wanted to be like her eldest martial sister, being capable of learning all the knowledge their teacher taught them, becoming a personal teacher their teacher could be proud of.
Sadly, her intellect didn’t allow it!
The papaya girl truly couldn’t understand spirit runes. And finally, after having a heart-to-heart talk with Li Ziqi one day, she decided to give up.
(I’m stupid and my growth period is slower. Since that’s the case, I should focus my attention on a single thing instead of being assailed by distractions.)
After Lu Zhiruo made this decision, she decided to stay with her belief.
However, in her heart, she still hoped that she would be able to do better. Hence, after discovering so clues when she looked at the second world-class difficulty question, she was extrely happy and hopeful.
If she could solve this question, she would be able to win glory for her teacher.
Yes. From the start to the end, Lu Zhiruo had never thought about what battle spoil she would be able to get after deciphering the question. She just didn’t want her teacher to be disappointed.
Hence, during these few days, other than accomplishing the daily training that Sun Mo had set for her, she would be standing on the tal floor, thinking of a solution to decipher this puzzle.
Gradually, she also discovered so subtle details. In the tiny faculae, there were miniature shadows, like things stuck in prehistory amber.
However, these shadows weren’t complete. They were in fragnts.
Hence, Lu Zhiruo suddenly had a thought. Could she join these fragnted faculae together?
When the papaya girl was young, she didn’t have a playmate. Before she was ten years old, she had always been living alone. Other than having a servant who took care of her als for her and her father who would tutor her three days a week, she had never seen any other person before.
Hence, little animals beca Lu Zhiruo’s companions.
Because of this, her father bought many books about creatures and even rare specins. In fact, her father also got those secret treasures that would only grow on the bodies of ancient gigantic beasts for her.
Lu Zhiruo didn’t know that she was the person who knew the most about animals in the entire Nine Provinces. There were no others.
If you wanted Lu Zhiruo to morize the detailed information of a ferocious beast, she might not be able to morize it. However, she would definitely be able to identify it if she saw it.
Lu Zhiruo stared at the faculae and caught so of them.
At the start, the others were watching a good show. They felt that this little girl didn’t know what was good for her and would die here due to the lightning bolts.
But after waiting a long ti, no lightning appeared. On the contrary, an ancient ferocious beast materialized. After it roared, it transford into a flowing stream of light that entered the little girl’s glabella.
Even a fool would know that Lu Zhiruo had discovered the crux of deciphering this puzzle.
Soone imdiately went over to ask her, but the papaya girl was only silly; she wasn’t stupid. She naturally wouldn’t tell them.
It also wasn’t good for the people here to force her.
There was no solution to it, and they could only continue to observe. But other than seeing her catching those faculae, they couldn’t see anything else.
“Could it be that those faculae have a problem?”
“But didn’t everyone verify them before? There’s nothing strange about them!”
“Where is the crux then?”
Just when a group of people was discussing, a rumbling sound echoed beside Lu Zhiruo, as a vast amount of spirit qi was gathered there. A gigantic elephant eventually ford from the spirit qi.
“This is a Tusked War Elephant, a ferocious beast in ancient tis.”
A great teacher who was skilled in both spirit runes and the art of spiritual control identified it.
The Tusked War Elephant was gigantic, mighty, and exuded an aura of desolation.
“Hello!”
Lu Zhiruo happily stretched out her hand. (I managed to piece another creature together. I feel so happy!)
Aooo!
The war elephant used its trunk to touch Lu Zhiruo’s hand. After that, a clapping sound rang out as it shattered and beco a stream of light that flowed into her glabella.
The others imdiately sat cross-legged and started to absorb the spirit qi in the surroundings.
These motes of spirit qi were much purer and refined compared to the ones they absorbed usually, about three tis more. If there were no accidents, it must have been released by the secret treasure here.
Although the motes of spirit qi appeared because of the papaya girl, these cultivators weren’t going to be as polite as the guests you invited ho for dinner. This matter concerned their future, whether they could beco a legend or not.
Even if they weren’t able to enter the Legendary Realm in the future, just by absorbing these pure motes of spirit qi, their strength would already enjoy an imdiate partial increase.
So everyone wasn’t polite and did their utmost to absorb them.
The amount of spirit qi for Lu Zhiruo would naturally be reduced, but her personality was kind and soft. She wasn’t willing to get into a dispute for such a matter. Hence, she simply allowed them to do as they wished.
Just like this, Lu Zhiruo could piece roughly three to four images of ancient gigantic beasts every day and after it was done, the spirit qi tides would erupt forth again.
The Dragonspirit Manor was very large and since the second question hadn’t been solved by many people for so many years, no one paid much attention to this location.
Hence, over ten people followed Lu Zhiruo and silently ‘struck it rich’.
When Sun Mo was in seclusion to invent the spirit rune and prepare himself for the operation, Lu Zhiruo’s days were happy and substantial too.
Those completed pieces of the ferocious beast fragnts would enter her glabella. Not only did they supply pure energy, but they also contained mories that originated from the ancient era.
Plants had spirits and the myriad of creatures had wisdom!
These ferocious beasts had their own system of cultivation. Hence, their experiences, cultivation thods, and everything they had seen, heard, and experienced entered the papaya girl’s mind.
Lu Zhiruo couldn’t understand these cultivation arts, but these fragnts of mories showed ancient birds and beasts that had never been recorded in history before.
After Lu Zhiruo saw them, she began to piece the faculae together more efficiently and her speed naturally grew faster. Half a month later, she could complete over ten every single day.
And now, the papaya girl could complete twenty in a single day.
“Why is this ti around so slow?”
Soone grumbled. They gave up on deciphering this puzzle and purely hoped to follow Lu Zhiruo so they could absorb so spirit qi to improve themselves.
“I feel that the beast this ti around must be a gigantic one!”
A middle-aged man with lush hair and a white forehead spoke. His face was ruddy and his talent was extrely good. Hence, when he absorbed spirit qi, his efficiency was higher than others.
Everyone was in discussion with each other and couldn’t be bothered to try and solve the puzzle anymore. They were like a bunch of vultures waiting for Lu Zhiruo to hunt sothing before swooping in to steal food.
Only an old man with a hook nose had a gloomy look on his face.
His na was Lu Xiong and he was a grandmaster-level spiritual controller on the side of the dark faction.
This ti around, he ca to the Dragonspirit Manor because he wanted to buy three spirit runes. They were none other than the berserk, six senses incrent, and a defensive-type spirit rune.
Lu Xiong was pretty old. When he saw that his cultivation base was stagnating and he could only wait for death, he was unwilling to accept it. Hence, he decided to use all his wealth to buy spirit runes here to aid him in increasing his strength. After that, he would head off to the Darkness Continent for adventuring, hoping to have a miraculous encounter that would help him to achieve a breakthrough.
However, he didn’t expect the prestige of the legendary Dragonspirit Manor to be so great.
He was a genuine grandmaster-level spiritual controller. However, when he personally visited this place and waited for several days, he couldn’t even manage to et with Bai Wenzhang.
Lu Xiong, who was growing extrely anxious and had nothing to do, naturally went to check out the world-class difficulty questions. However, they were all extrely difficult.
Lu Xiong didn’t understand spirit runes and didn’t want to waste ti on this. But he didn’t expect that the mont this girl appeared here, he would have a new discovery.
This puzzle seed to have sothing to do with the art of spiritual control?
The others had no idea what Lu Zhiruo was doing, but Lu Xiong already understood on the first day.
These faculae were fragnts of countless ancient spirit beasts. The technique to decipher the puzzle was to find the correct fragnts and piece them together one by one.
Lu Xiong attempted it once, but he discovered that he couldn’t do it. The image in those faculae belonged to beasts he didn’t know. If he carelessly pieced together the wrong fragnts, he would be shocked by the lightning.
After so many days, Lu Xiong had been racking his brains to think of a correct piecing thod, but he was completely clueless. When he saw this girl becoming increasingly proficient, his heart also grew increasingly anxious.
Because he understood that when all the ferocious beasts were pieced together, the secret treasure hidden here would surely co out.
“The ti I have remaining is not much anymore.”
Lu Xiong had to complete the deciphering before Lu Zhiruo
BOOM!
Another tide of spirit qi erupted forth. Lu Xiong was reluctant to waste it and imdiately did his best to absorb it.
…
“This won’t do, the efficiency is too slow. Should I do two at once?”
Lu Zhiruo was preparing to do so, but she soon stopped.
“No, I’m too stupid. I’m afraid I cannot multi-task. Besides, as long as one is completed, it will erupt forth with spirit qi and I won’t have ti to stop to absorb the spirit qi!”
After so contemplation, Lu Zhiruo decided to piece a powerful one.
“It’s you then, ancient immortal phoenix!”
Giant dragons?
Lu Zhiruo had seen one when her teacher displayed the Great Desolation Dragon Subduing Scripture, and it brought no sense of freshness to her. So, this was why she decided to piece that ancient immortal bird.
Because it was very large, there were even more fragnts. This ant that she would need more ti. But even so, it posed no difficulty to Lu Zhiruo.
This was just a jigsaw puzzle ga!
Three hours later, she found the last facula and fused the last piece with the others together...
RUMBLE~
The sound of thunder echoed out. There was like a sea of lighting gushing toward her.
After that, a gigantic immortal bird appeared from the sea of lightning.
Crackle~
So lightning sparks splattered around, causing everyone to feel their bodies growing numb, making them hurriedly retreat. But they saw that the young girl was completely fine, and they couldn’t help but be badly shocked.
Yet, Lu Xiong understood the reason. Despite his large eyes, his eyes widened even more and almost beca round.
“She actually completed the deciphering so quickly?”
(I haven’t used any moves, but you’ve already won. This is so infuriating!)
After that immortal bird flew a circle in the sky, it suddenly swooped downward and slamd its head into the tallic floor.
Rumble!
The sparkling blue lightning was like splashing tides gushing everywhere. After that, a rectangular parallelepiped tallic plate the size of an apple appeared.
Bzz~
That tal plate shone with a layer of white light, and the surrounding arcs of lightning transford into eagles, ferocious wolves, seals, and even harmless groundhogs…
Each of them rushed into the tallic plate, fusing themselves within.
At this mont, it could be considered that everyone had their horizons broadened, and they saw many ancient spirit beasts they had never seen before.
As for Lu Xiong, he was so agitated that his entire body was trembling.
(This is my miraculous encounter! After obtaining this object, not only can my combat prowess level up, but even my lifespan will be increased.)
The lightning vanished and there was only a tallic cube floating quietly in the air. Lu Zhiruo shot a few glances at it curiously. Just when she wanted to stretch her hand out to take it, a thick arm shot forward quicker than her and grabbed hold of it.
“What are you doing?”
Lu Zhiruo was astonished.
“I displayed my art of spiritual control and exhausted much effort before summoning this secret treasure out with difficulty.”
Lu Xiong stroked his beard and said it with an expression like it should be by right.. “Now that I’ve succeeded, I’m naturally going to keep this treasure. Do you have an objection?”
