Chapter 618: 334 Mysterious Seed_2

Fortunately, she had already succeeded in foundation establishment, and her Dantian was full of liquid True Yuan, not as miserable as Fang Yuyang. After the initial frenzy, the seed’s speed of consuming True Yuan gradually slowed down, as if it knew that draining Fang Yuxin completely would not end well for it either.

Fang Yuxin was extremely frustrated. She had almost fallen victim to this seemingly ordinary seed out of mere curiosity! While she circulated her cultivation technique to absorb Spiritual Energy, she also examined her inheritance, hoping to find information about the seed. Unfortunately, despite her efforts, she couldn’t find any records about it and still didn’t know what it was.

The night passed quickly. Throughout the night, Fang Yuxin was in the Alchemy Room absorbing Spiritual Energy while Fang Yuyang stayed similarly occupied in the Artifact Room. However, Fang Yuyang’s situation was much better than Fang Yuxin’s; surrounded by a plethora of Crystal Cores, he had no worries at all.

Meanwhile, Fang Yuxin was forced by the seed to cultivate all night. The True Yuan she absorbed and refined was completely devoured by the greedy seed until it finally quieted down as dawn approached, and its consuming speed significantly decreased.

However, the situation wasn’t entirely bad. Once it stabilized, Fang Yuxin noticed a funnel-shaped vortex forming around the seed, constantly spinning. With its rotation, even without intentional cultivation, her body continuously absorbed the surrounding Spiritual Energy.

After these energies were refined, half was absorbed by the seed, and the other half replenished her Dantian. Over time, her cultivation efficiency was bound to significantly improve!

Fang Yuxin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although she had been reckless before, the outcome wasn’t too bad after all.

When she left the Alchemy Room and returned to the main hall, she found her family already waiting there. She first glanced at Fang Yuyang and, seeing his good complexion and the faint smile on his face, guessed that he must have also benefited and felt completely reassured.

Bai Qianqian, having left her cultivation at some point, ran up to Fang Yuxin as soon as she saw her, taking her hand and asking, "Mama, where did you go? I’ve been waiting for you for so long."

Fang Yuxin looked down at him. His face, chubby with baby fat, appeared round and extra tender-skinned. Especially those round, sparkling eyes gazing at her, melted her heart, prompting her to pinch his cheek and ask, "Qianqian, are you hungry? Mama will make you something delicious!"

At this, she remembered the Fire-gathering Array and Pill Furnace in the Alchemy Room and the fish, shrimp, and crabs in the lake! After the apocalypse, it had been a long time since she had fresh fish and shrimp! Unfortunately, constantly being on the road, it was not possible to simply take them out, and she had to endure.

Now that they were in Qingmu Spiritual Mansion, it was a perfect opportunity to cook something in the Alchemy Room!

Upon hearing this, Bai Qianqian’s round eyes shone even brighter—oh, he hadn’t eaten all night and was almost starving!

Moved by the idea, Fang Yuxin immediately took her family to the Alchemy Room. Upon reaching a huge scroll, she began to catch the fish, shrimp, and crabs from the lake. She had bought many live fish and crabs, which not only grew fatter but also multiplied numerous times in the lake.

Fang Yuxin caught a plump catfish, then scooped up a basin full of crayfish and about twenty large crabs. After cleaning them thoroughly, she prepared the necessary seasonings, picked a Low Grade Magical Artifact Pill Furnace, placed it on the Fire-gathering Array, lit it, and started cooking.

The catfish was made into boiled fish slices, the crayfish were stir-fried, and the crabs were steamed. After the cooking, the family gathered around a table in the Alchemy Room and started eating. It was not clear whether the fish and shrimp had become more tender due to the nourishment from the Spirit Mansion, or whether the food cooked in the Pill Furnace was inherently different, but despite being Fang Yuxin’s first attempt, the flavor was exceptionally delicious, even better than any they had eaten in five-star hotels!

The catfish alone weighed over eight pounds, and there was a large basin of crayfish, plus the crabs. Not only did the five of them finish everything, but they also felt somewhat unsatisfied.

As they were leaving, Fang Yuxin specifically picked some fruits and fresh vegetables, then used her Communicator to send a message to Shang Jinxiu, asking her to come and collect them. Soon, there was a knock at the door. Fang Yuxin, seeing that it was Shang Jinxiu outside, quickly opened the door and let her in, pointing to the things on the coffee table, "The items are all here, help yourself."

Shang Jinxiu looked at her, smiling shyly, "Sister Xin." Knowing Fang Yuxin’s temperament, she didn’t bother with pleasantries and took the items, preparing to leave. Fang Yuxin specifically instructed her, "Tell the others not to go out recently. If someone invites you out, don’t agree immediately, let me know first."

The previous night, she had severely offended the Qu Family, and Qin Xiran also seemed to despise her; these people were all unprincipled scoundrels, and heaven knows what they might do. If Qu Qianlin and Qin Xiran targeted her, she wasn’t worried, but she feared they might harm Shang Jinxiu and the others.

She didn’t plan to go out recently; if something happened to Shang Jinxiu and the others outside, she could do nothing from a distance, likely unable to rescue them even if she wanted to.

Shang Jinxiu nodded solemnly, "Don’t worry, Sister Xin. We won’t go out." (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to vote for it at Qidian (qidian.com) with a recommendation ticket or monthly ticket. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
