Chapter 253: Chapter 253: Harvest

"Greetings to Martial Uncle Wang, Martial Uncle Lei, Martial Uncle Nong!" The two female disciples, who were recovering the corpse, immediately gave their salutations.

Unresponsive to the two disciples, the three people looked simultaneous at Liang Cheng, who was floating with his eyes closed. Even the reticent Nong Yufei spoke with some astonishment, "It’s truly the awakening of the Thunder Talent! Seems like our effort this time won’t be in vain!"

"What happened?" Lei Junjie also appeared delighted as he examined the floating Liang Jun. He discovered that Liang Jun’s aura was growing increasingly wild, hinting at the potential for him to turn into a demon. Consequently, Lei Junjie instantly questioned the two disciples.

"Martial Uncle, the one on the ground is his father. His end must have been near, so he wanted to entrust the child to us. In order to incite his injuries, he deliberately ended his life. This sudden emotional fluctuation of the child caused the awakening of his Spiritual Root Talent..."

Those above the second-class top-grade spiritual roots had a chance to awaken their own spiritual root talent, marking them as elite prospects. In Wanyu Sect, these people were considered crème de la crème.

Wang Zijia responded the quickest of them all. Disregarding the disciples’ responses, he immediately appeared next to the young man on the ground. After confirming that he was no longer breathing, Wang Zijia quickly retrieved the Injury Healing Pill and inserted it into his mouth.

Following this, his mana fluctuated slightly, forming a phantom hand made of Spiritual Light that then plunged into the man’s chest.

As Wang Zijia slightly clenched his fist, the Spiritual Light hand inside the man clenched as well, gripping and stimulating the heart.

"Thump Thump!"

With Wang Zijia’s maneuvers, the man who was supposedly dead regained a weak pulse.

"Cough Cough!"

As soon as the man awakened, he started to cough up blood, even some of his internal organs were expelled. Evidently, despite Wang Zijia’s forced resuscitation, the man was again on the brink of death.

Without any hurry, Wang Zijia sensed that the Demon Seeding had completely taken effect. With a thought, he entered an unfamiliar Sea of Consciousness.

Name: Liang Jun

Cultivation: Acquired Entry (14/100)

Spiritual Root: Lower Grade Spiritual Root

Innate Martial Arts: White Cloud Fist Technique (Great Mastery 9/100)

The other party didn’t possess many Weights, so organizing them was fairly straightforward. This however resulted in relatively low value, making detailed healing difficult. Although if he intended to affect the Spiritual Roots, it should be more than enough.

Of course, taking such trouble for a mortal martial artist wasn’t necessary. All he needed to do was to treat the lethal wounds, restore vitality to the damaged internal organs, and administer a Healing Pill which would eradicate the disease.

Therefore, he only roughly exchanged two Weights and exited the Sea of Consciousness, only to immediately administer another pill to the continuously coughing Liang Jun.

"Cough Cough!"

The pill melted as soon as it entered the mouth, and Liang Jun’ condition remarkably improved.

"Dad!"

On the side, Liang Cheng, who was floating above the ground with an increasingly violent aura, was startled by the noise. His eyes suddenly opened, all anomalies disappeared, and he rushed into Liang Jun’s arms.

At this moment, Nong Yufei and Lei Junjie, having understood what had transpired, also walked over. Lei Junjie breathed a sigh of relief, while Nong Yufei looked curiously at Wang Zijia, "Junior Brother, your healing technique is truly miraculous. What sort of technique is it to clutch the heart and forcibly sustain life?"

"Oh, when studying bloodline techniques, I asked for knowledge from the uncle at the Pill Institute and tinkered around by myself," replied Wang Zijia casually.

Hearing this, Nong Yufei did not ask further questions.

Looking at Liang Jun, who had awakened and was currently shocked to see his wounds visibly healing, Wang Zijia asked, "Are you willing to follow me in cultivation?"

"I am willing, I am willing to follow..." The stunned Liang Jun hesitated momentarily, then immediately responded with ecstasy on his face. He paused mid-sentence and asked, "My child?"

"Of course, he would be included!" Wang Zijia replied with a smile.

"Many thanks to the Immortal Elder for your grace. The kindness you have shown today, I will remember forever..." In the midst of his speech, he even made his few years old son, Liang Cheng, kowtow.

"All right." Wang Zijia waved his hand to stop the others’ actions and then instructed the two disciples behind him, "Take them up and settle them first!"

"As you wish, Martial Uncle!" said the disciples. With that, they rose into the sky, carrying the two newcomers.

"You two should go up as well!" Wang Zijia turned to Nong Yufei and Lei Junjie who were standing by his side.

"What are you planning, Brother Wang?" Lei Junjie asked curiously.

Wang Zijia casually replied, "Since they’re here, I might as well lend a hand!"

Lei Junjie paused before saying, "Brother, you’re...quite enthusiastic."

Things in the city may look dire, but the demons are anything but formidable. They wouldn’t have been any trouble at all if there had been organized monks to control them, hence, no Wine Monks needed to be dispatched.

Nong Yufei glanced at Wang Zijia and said, "Since there’s no one in charge up there, I’ll go first!"

Wang Zijia just grinned and, without saying more, floated away, his spear materializing around him. He joined the fight to slay the demons.

Seeing this, Lei Junjie made up his mind and chose to join in as well.

Although Kalin City wasn’t small and the demons had been gathering all night, they were efficiently dealt with due to the magic users handling them from the sky and the hundreds of children and two Wine Monks on the ground.

The situation now resolved, only half an hour later, Wang Zijia gave orders for the bodies, including those who had been polluted or gone mad, to be loaded onto the magic-driven.

Since they had to hit the road again, Wang Zijia left behind two disciples to handle the aftermath and got ready to leave.

"Farewell, Immortal Elders!"

"Farewell, True Immortal, may you live for hundreds of years!"

"······"

As the magic-driven engine pulled away, leaving a long trail of spiritual light, the residents, who had been saved, bowed down in reverence.

······

Inside the magic-driven, in the exclusive personal room prepared for the extraordinarily gifted disciples...

"Greetings, Immortal Elder!" Seeing Wang Zijia entering the room, Liang Jun, who was in the middle of refining the remaining power of the injury healing pill, immediately paid his respects.

"Greetings, Immortal Elder!" Liang Cheng, imitating his elder, also paid his respects.

Wang Zijia nodded and looked closely at Liang Cheng, "Come here, let me check your Root Bone."

Liang Cheng turned hesitantly to look at Liang Jun. Once Liang Jun motioned for him to approach, Liang Cheng timidly moved towards Wang Zijia. He seemed a little shy.

Despite being only four or five years old, his eyes were exceptionally clear and lively.

While it seemed like Wang Zijia was examining him physically, a luminescent spell sneaked out of his mouth. Regardless of how gifted the child was, without any cultivation, Wang Zijia did not worry about anything.

It only took a moment to complete the early Demon Seeding.
