With the help of the Big-mouth Flower, Li Xing collected the spirit plants again and finally succeeded in refining two furnaces of Small Returning Pills.
At the mont the pills ford, two bolts of tribulation lightning struck down on the elixirs that glistened like jade, and Li Xing almost burst into tears.
They were Heaven Rank elixirs that could trigger a lightning tribulation; she was probably the second Dan Cultivator in the family to refine Heaven Rank elixirs after Ancestor Zhan.
Just past noon, Li Xing packed up her things and returned to the city, heading straight to the comrcial street. Unlike Little Fatty, the Big-mouth Flower couldn’t go into the Dantian, and if she wanted to carry it openly by her side, Li Xing needed to buy a flower pot.
Star Beasts of the Qianyuan Continent were mortal enemies to humans and couldn’t be tad as spirit pets, but a small portion of spirit plants, due to possessing so special abilities, could have a supportive role in battles and be kept by humans.
However, spirit plants were not very intelligent, and even Elental Spirits with Wood Elent Spirits couldn’t communicate and control them with 100% efficiency.
To more precisely play the combat role of spirit plants, and to avoid them randomly attacking and accidentally harming others, Battle Pet Spirit Plants had to be planted in specially made pots.
These pots are hemispherical and float above the ground, allowing the owner to control the movent and attack of the spirit plant using the pot. The pot also has a protective shield that rises in non-combat situations to prevent the Battle Pet Spirit Plant from hurting people.
Li Xing didn’t care much about this; what she loved most was that the pots had a life-sustaining system, similar to the Spirit Beast Bag, allowing plants planted in them to be stored in the Space Cabinet.
The first ti Li Xing went to the comrcial street, she saw a rcenary flaunting his Battle Pet Spirit Plant, the asuring Heaven Ruler.
As it passed by Li Xing, the asuring Heaven Ruler, for so unknown reason, lifted its thorn-covered branch and struck down fiercely. The branch was blocked by the protective shield, making a loud "thud."
Everyone else was shocked, but Li Xing thought it was super cool and felt envious. She also wanted an impressive spirit plant to flaunt wherever she went! Now her dream had co true; she also had a Battle Pet Spirit Plant.
Walking familiarly into Boss Guan’s shop, Li Xing greeted him politely.
Lao Guan: "Yo, my dear niece is here! What do you want to buy today?"
Anna wasn’t in good health, so whenever Li Xing had free ti, she would help her purchase daily necessities. She often visited Boss Guan’s shop, so the two were already familiar with each other.
"Uncle Guan, I want to buy a flower pot."
"Ah, buying a flower pot, are you planning to catch a Battle Pet Spirit Plant?" Li Xing didn’t have a Wood Elent Spirit, so capturing a Battle Pet Spirit Plant might be difficult. "Do you want Uncle Guan to help?"
Lao Guan was an Elental Spirit with a Wood Elent Spirit, but his spirit was only of the fifth rank and more suited to being a rchant than a low-level Healing Master.
But even a rickety boat has three thousand nails; even the lowest-level Wood Elent Spirit is better at communicating with spirit plants than other Elental Spirits. Having one in the team during a Battle Pet Spirit Plant capture significantly increases the success rate.
Lao Guan often received such employnt or invitation offers, but he was used to a peaceful life and didn’t want to take risks, so he always declined. However, if Li Xing wanted it, he would be willing to help, after all, she was his dear niece.
Li Xing shook her head and declined Boss Guan’s kindness: "No need, I already caught one! Look—"
A huge purple head suddenly popped out of Li Xing’s backpack and gave Boss Guan a wide smile. A slug-like flower stan drooped at its mouth corner, with mucous dripping on the floor.
The Big-mouth Flower initially wanted to showcase its overly-friendly smile with its sixty-four teeth to make its owner proud, but little did it expect that its appearance was far from cute and only exuded an unexpected horror.
"Ah, damn—!"
With a horrified yell, Boss Guan swiftly opened the Space Cabinet, took out a dium-sized flower pot, and placed the Big-mouth Flower inside.
Once the crisis was averted, Boss Guan felt his legs go weak. For a mont, he seed to have seen the Bridge of Sighs, with his great-grandmother waving from the other side.
"Where, where did this thing co from?"
Seeing Boss Guan’s hair standing on end from shock, Li Xing also felt she had been too reckless. Even the strong heart of a Golden Core Cultivator was startled by the Big-mouth Flower, let alone an ordinary person.
"I caught it while hunting in the Star Beast Forest."
Boss Guan was speechless.
Most people would team up with several experts, making all preparations before attempting to find a Battle Pet Spirit Plant, and even then, it might not be successful for months. But she? She just took a trip to the Star Beast Forest and brought one back, and casually at that! Since when did the forest’s spirit plants beco so docile?
"Did you just pack it up in a backpack and bring it back?"
Li Xing nodded: "Yeah, it’s very well-behaved."
The Big-mouth Flower smiled even sweeter, its slug-like tongue licking its lips, creating a curve at the mouth that grew more sinister.
Boss Guan: Co on!
