Chapter 949 - 449: Zhiwei’s Progress; Private Conversation

The next two days.

Chen Ye painstakingly took care of Zhiwei.

To ensure his eldest disciple’s health was impeccable, Chen Ye visited eight times a day without fail to personally check Zhiwei’s pulse.

Making a little girl jealous:

"Master——you weren’t this concerned when Qing Jun evolved!"

Jin’er pouted:

"I remember clearly, at that time, Senior Sister was sleeping so soundly that she seemed not to need Master’s attention."

"Darn! Qing Jun needs Master’s care every day!"

In any case.

With Jin’er saying this, the little girl couldn’t argue with Master anymore and instead looked at him all day with eyes filled with resentment.

Even the Master,

felt uneasy under the gaze of this little dragon cub and had to offer plenty of delicious treats to barely appease the little girl.

After dealing with the clingy Qing Jun, Chen Ye sat by Zhiwei’s bedside with a serious demeanor.

"Zhiwei, stretch out your hand. Let me take another look at your current condition."

Zhiwei obediently extended her fair wrist, and her sleeve slipped, revealing an arm as white as snow.

Chen Ye pressed two fingers together and gently placed them on her pulse, channeling a trace of Divine Sense.

Zhiwei’s recovery speed was very fast.

In just two days, she had almost returned to her peak state.

What Chen Ye was most concerned about now, however, was the change in Zhiwei after her physique awakened.

This examination revealed a startling result, causing Chen Ye to nearly leap out from beside the bed!

"Hiss——"

Chen Ye was visibly shocked.

This awakening brought a dramatic transformation in Zhiwei’s physique!

Firstly, the Spiritual Root.

No need for more words on this,

on the day Zhiwei woke, Chen Ye already knew she had awakened the Earth Spirit Root.

With the new Spiritual Root, Zhiwei’s cultivation efficiency improved by 30%!

Moreover,

Earth Element Spiritual Power is solid and excellent in defense.

This is crucial for Zhiwei.

For example.

The original Zhiwei was a high-offense low-defense assassin.

Though her attacks were fierce, she often suffered in matches due to weak physical defense.

Especially in long-lasting battles of attrition, even if Zhiwei’s physique was unique and Spiritual Power abundant, her physical body could not withstand high-intensity magical battles.

But now, things were different.

With the protective characteristic of heavy and enduring Earth Element Spiritual Power, Zhiwei has made up for this deficiency.

Combined with her fierce Sword Intent, she is now perfectly poised for both offense and defense, with no weaknesses!

And not only this.

Chen Ye probed further with his Divine Sense, examining the flow of Spiritual Power within her, causing a surge in his heart.

"This... the Spiritual Power cycle is so perfect?!"

Originally, Zhiwei only had Water, Fire, and Wood Spiritual Roots within her.

Water and Fire are naturally incompatible, relying on Wood Element Spiritual Power for mediation but still having flaws.

Now, however, the awakening of the Earth Spirit Root changed everything.

Earth naturally carries, benevolent and nurturing.

This newly awakened Earth Spirit Root suppresses the somewhat volatile Spiritual Powers of other types, ensuring no future troubles.

"When we return to the Yan Kingdom, I must find a way to ask Senior Mao for the Earth Gourd Sword."

Chen Ye thought to himself.

Zhiwei’s current Magical Treasure is the Gourd Sword, which comprises seven swords representing Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, and Thunder, enabling the display of the Grand Evolution Wind and Thunder Sword Array.

This is Zhiwei’s primary means of attack.

Previously in Heart Slaughter Cave,

Zhiwei only obtained Water, Fire, and Wood Gourd Swords.

Now having awakened the Earth Spirit Root, she can accept the Earth Gourd Sword, but the Earth Gourd Sword has long been in the possession of the current Mao Family Head, Mao Cheng.

"Master..."

The girl’s soft voice interrupted Chen Ye’s thoughts as she looked nervously at him,

"Master, are you satisfied?"

Chen Ye couldn’t help but smile:

"Satisfied? You silly girl, what kind of word is that? Cultivation is your own pursuit, not something to report to me as if seeking approval — why talk of satisfaction?"

Zhiwei whispered:

"Then, why is Master smiling so... so happily? I thought maybe my aptitude finally caught Master’s Dharma Eye."

Hiss...

If others heard this girl’s words, many cultivators would surely feel ashamed.

This is the Purity Glaze Body!

If such talent isn’t enough, then 99% of the geniuses in the Cultivation Realm might as well find a bean curd block and die.

"Always underestimating yourself."

Chen Ye gently rubbed the girl’s hair with a proud tone,

"My disciple, Chen Ye’s disciple, is the best disciple in the world! Don’t be too modest."

"Hehe——"

The girl pursed her lips smiling.

She knew that Master valued her highly.

Chen Ye realized that this girl’s words were just in jest; she knew her own talent well.

"You... never mind. You’ve just awakened the Earth Spirit Root, and now is the time to stabilize your Realm and hone your Tao Foundation with same-source Spiritual Power. These are top-quality Earth Series Spiritual Materials, use them freely, don’t be polite with Master."

With a wave of Chen Ye’s large hand, several bright and colorful brocade boxes piled up beside him.

These were sent by Qin Jiaming earlier, perfect for the disciple’s cultivation.

Zhiwei’s gaze fell on the brocade boxes.

These boxes all bear the exclusive mark of Duqing Divine Son.

Her voice grew faint: "Master, are these the gifts from Duqing Divine Son?"

For some reason.

Although her expression was calm, and her tone was calm,

Master’s heart suddenly skipped a beat:

"Exactly, although the Demoness acts erratically, she admitted defeat in front of Master’s profound Tao spells. These Spiritual Materials are her honest tribute for seeking the Tao. Of course, Master won’t accept disciples, just imparting some Tao techniques to her."
