Chapter 1025 - 1025 19 Internal and External Collaboration 2

Chapter 1025: Chapter 19 Internal and External Collaboration [2 in 1] Chapter 1025: Chapter 19 Internal and External Collaboration [2 in 1] Feng Yin’s gift, of course, did not stop there. With a flick of his finger, he had already marked the avatar with a Spirit Gathering.

As the branches transferred energy, it returned to the original body.

On the hillside in The Other Side, the little pine tree that had already grown into a towering giant shook its body, exuding renewed vigor. Its thick trunk had grown a few centimeters in diameter, and the crown had grown several meters more.

These external changes were merely the result of a slight overflow of spiritual power. The vast majority of the energy was used by the little pine tree to increase its spiritual consciousness, cultivation, and strength.

Accordingly, its foundation became even more stable, and its essence was further enriched.

Bearing a multitude of pinecones due to the sudden surge in energy, the little pine tree, with its significantly increased cultivation, simply willed all the pinecones to wither and turned them back into droplets of spiritual power that flowed into the tree. This was indeed not a single bit wasted.

What’s the point of bearing fruit? Got nothing better to do?

Such a waste!

The little pine tree was clearly good at running a household.

Another three days later…

The man with the Jinmian made his routine inspection and came to chat with Feng Yin, explaining the situation.

Of course, the main concern was that there had been no messages from the Heavenly Sword Cloud Palace, and as the saying goes, “Delay breeds mischief.” Dong Pingchuan, regarded as a valuable asset, should certainly start to pull his weight.

It would be best for Young Master Dong to write another letter to hurry things up. He couldn’t just take advantage and then not do any work!

To his surprise, before Jinmian could say anything about the matter, Dong Pingchuan took the initiative, “The spirit crystals are gone.”

“…!!!”

Jinmian almost cursed, “It’s only been a few days? All gone?”

“Now that I’m deprived of my freedom, what could I do other than diligently cultivate day and night? I’m just passively toughing it out with rigorous practice.”

Feng Yin spoke, “Actually, when I think about the past, I was conscious of my excellent talent and neglected my cultivation, which is truly shameful. Considering the situation then, I would certainly become a thorn in the side for all the powerful factions… Knowing my good aptitude and high endowment, they would definitely see me as a future formidable threat… So what am I to do? I must become stronger, of course. Only by strengthening myself can I avoid a tragic end…”

“This moment of hard cultivation naturally means that the spirit crystals in hand are used up just a little bit faster. It’s all within reason, long live understanding, long live understanding…”

Jinmian’s facial muscles twitched.

This is just a little bit faster?

Is your little bit always this fast?

As it turned out, every one of the Jinmian people was wealthy, and being able to rank among the Cloud Top powerhouses, all of them had been well-established for a long time and possessed considerable wealth.

Giving a few thousand spirit crystals to Feng Yin was nothing they cared about; even a few tens of thousands more would make no difference. But the problem was, how long was this guy going to stay here?

This was something that no one could predict.

If he kept living here year after year, that would be an expense of almost twenty thousand top-quality spirit crystals per month, and even more than twenty thousand would probably not be enough the next month…

This, accumulated over time, would be a significant sum!

Especially seeing Dong Pingchuan behaving as though he was ready to settle down comfortably for a long siege, Jinmian felt like his guts were twisting in knots.

Doesn’t feel like a hostage at all; this is practically becoming a retirement home!

Frustrated, Jinmian slapped together a bunch of crystals: “This time I’m giving you ten thousand.”

“Hooray!”

“Make them last.”

“I am a guest, an honored guest! This treatment is just too disrespectful…”

“…Grass! Complain again and see if I don’t beat you up!”

Jinmian glared with a menacing temper flaring up.

Feng Yin sighed, took the spirit crystals, and wisely chose not to speak further.

A wise man does not fight battles he cannot win.

Once the spirit crystals were handed over, only then did they return to serious matters.

It was Feng Yin who asked, “Any letters from the Cloud Palace?”

“Yes, they said they’re looking for the godly doctor, but there’s been no response since then.”

“Then what are you worried about? If that’s what your family says, they must be targeting the right solution, and I reckon they’ll find someone soon. In my opinion, the biggest issue isn’t really about finding someone; it’s about the godly doctor’s prescription.”

“No, the mere prescription isn’t the problem; on the contrary, it’s your search for the medicinal ingredients according to the prescription that’s the real challenge. The Blood Emperor’s injuries are too severe, and with decades of delay, the medicine that can heal such injuries is definitely not going to be ordinary. You all need to be prepared for that.”

Feng Yin took the opportunity to inject a dose of caution.

“Of course, we’re well aware of this. Over the years, we’ve sought many godly doctors and have acquired countless valuable prescriptions; our stockpile of rare medicinal ingredients is also plentiful.”

Jinmian expressed his full confidence.

In his view, with the accumulation over endless years, having everything they needed was a given; he found it inconceivable that they would not be able to find all the required prescription ingredients.

“Hmm… that’s good then.”

Feng Yin, however, gleaned another piece of information from his words: over these ten thousand years, it’s likely that many famous doctors had met their untimely ends at the hands of the Blood Emperor’s organization. Whether capable of treating Lei Tu or not, once they arrived, they could not be let go, for letting them go might risk leaking information.

The doctors who perished there not only lost their lives but most likely also all their lifetime collections and precious prescriptions…

Jinmian left again.

Feng Yin continued his cultivation, just as before.

Two days later, Dong Xiaoyan finally replied: “We’ve found the godly doctor, but the doctor thinks the description of the injuries is too vague. A meticulous description is needed, detailing the severity of each type of injury, as well as the body’s reaction when energy flows through and the state of spiritual consciousness…”
