Chapter 297: Chapter 297 The Stone Has Turned Into a Spirit! _1

There was no one near the Three Lives Stone, allowing Su Chengyu to freely explore and unveil the stone’s secrets.

Su Chengyu reached out and touched the Three Lives Stone. He had often come to visit as a child, even playfully urinating next to it or writing on it, but he had never noticed anything particularly strange about the stone.

The stone felt ordinary to the touch. He then probed it with his Divine Sense, but encountered intense resistance that prevented deep exploration.

Su Chengyu’s Divine Sense followed the stone downwards, revealing that the Three Lives Stone buried deeply, extending more than ten meters into the earth. As his Divine Sense delved further, he discovered something even more extraordinary.

Ten meters underground, the Three Lives Stone had grown countless roots, similar to those of a massive tree, which extended even further into the earth.

More importantly, Su Chengyu realized that these roots possessed a life force, implying that the Three Lives Stone was akin to a living being, drawing in Spiritual Energy from the soil through these roots.

"Is the stone evolving into a spirit?"

Su Chengyu quickly withdrew his Divine Sense and distanced himself from the Three Lives Stone. He knew that all things possess spirit – not only humans are capable of cultivation. If provided with sufficient nourishment from nature’s spiritual energy, even plants could attain enlightenment.

However, the notion of a stone turning into a spirit was unheard of; strictly speaking, a stone lacks the Spiritual Root necessary for cultivation.

Su Chengyu wondered whether he should sever the stone’s cultivation roots. Without just cause, such an act seemed unreasonable.

After much deliberation, Su Chengyu decided to ignore it entirely. Even if it did evolve into a Stone Monster, it would be no concern of his. The Demon Slayer Department would handle it.

As Su Chengyu prepared to leave, fluctuations of Spiritual Energy materialized around the Three Lives Stone, sending a signal to his mind.

This was a distress signal. It seemed that the Three Lives Stone was requesting his aid, convincing Su Chengyu further that the stone had attained spiritual intelligence and was thereby capable of transmitting communicative signals.

Indeed, the stone was beginning to evolve into a spirit entity!

Su Chengyu took a couple of steps backwards, unsure of why the stone would seek his help. Wasn’t it in the midst of cultivating?

Su Chengyu paused for a moment. Ignoring the distress signal from the Three Lives Stone, he stepped back again, only to witness a more intense wave of Spiritual Energy fluctuations.

"Save me... save me..."

Voices suddenly echoed in Su Chengyu’s mind. The tender, childlike voice seemed pitiful. However, based on the voice alone, it was impossible to determine the stone’s gender; its soft, pleading tone sounded like a child begging Su Chengyu for help.

"How can I save you?" Su Chengyu had no experience communicating with a stone, so he spoke out directly.

"Break the stone and save me." The childlike voice echoed in Su Chengyu’s mind.

Not only was the stone developing into a spirit, but it also learned to communicate. An ordinary person might be terrified, but Su Chengyu, being a cultivator, wasn’t easily frightened.

Should he save it? Su Chengyu sunk deep into thought, grappling with his dilemma. If he saved it, he might release a monster whose character was still unknown.

"Grandfather once said that every living being is not inherently good or evil. There are both good and bad among humans, as well as monsters."

Reflecting on his grandfather’s teachings, Su Chengyu realized that a Stone Monster, being an innate entity, likely wouldn’t differentiate between good and evil. If he were to rescue and keep it close, it could become a benevolent monster.

Su Chengyu decided to act. He walked over to the Three Lives Stone, channeling his Mana then striking the stone with a fierce punch.

With Su Chengyu’s current stage of cultivation, a punch was enough to shatter a large stone. However, when he hit the Three Lives Stone with all his might, it only resulted in a loud crash. The Three Lives Stone remained untouched, without a single crack.

"It’s so hard?"

Su Chengyu was startled, and again he hammered a few more punches, but he still struggled to clear away the Three Lives Stone.

He didn’t give up, taking out the Dragon Slayer Sword from his storage bag. This Dragon Slayer Sword was a divine weapon, capable of cutting through iron like mud.

"This is my best weapon, if even the Dragon Slayer Sword can’t split the stone, then it’s your fate and I won’t blame myself for failing to save you. My intentions are good, but I simply don’t have the strength," he said.

Having said that, Su Chengyu again mobilized his mana, causing the Dragon Slayer Sword to tremble slightly, flashing with a deep blue light.

Su Chengyu held the sword with both hands, giving a low shout. As he swung the sword, the Dragon Slayer Sword sliced into the Three Lives Stone, but failed to split it open directly, only leaving a sword mark more than ten centimeters deep on the stone.

"Really hard!"

Even the Dragon Slayer Sword, capable of cutting through iron like mud, could only cut in a depth of ten centimeters, showing how hard this Three Lives Stone was.

Su Chengyu pulled out the Dragon Slayer Sword, swaying it again and again, each sword strike landing on the Three Lives Stone, covering it in sword marks, and crossing each other.

Su Chengyu made thirty-two sword slashes in total, and he was getting somewhat exhausted. Fortunately, the Three Lives Stone was constantly releasing nature’s spiritual energy, allowing him to replenish his mana.

"I can’t go on, I need a rest," he said.

Su Chengyu sat down cross-legged on the spot, cultivating to recover his mana. The thirty-two swords had tired him out, even more exhausting than a battle with a person.

During the time when Su Chengyu was cultivating, from the cracks of the sword marks on the Three Lives Stone, there was a faint emerging green light that started flickering, making a crackling noise.

Su Chengyu opened his eyes, the green light from the cracks grew stronger, and the entire Three Lives Stone began to shake, giving a sensation of a ground shaking earthquake.

Su Chengyu quickly got up. It was obvious that the stone was about to explode.

"There won’t be a stone monkey jumping out from inside there, right?" Su Chengyu watched the Three Lives Stone unblinkingly, slightly stepping back while he couldn’t help but make a joke.

The green light flourished, the Three Lives Stone was just like an eggshell cracking, making a crackling sound, and then finally exploded with a loud bang.

Shrapnel flew around, Su Chengyu swung the sword horizontally and sent these fragments flying, only to see that the explosion of the Three Lives Stone was filled with blinding green light, and Su Chengyu subconsciously closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes, the green light gradually faded and in the rubble there was a white ball of light, glowing faintly with white light.

Su Chengyu, holding the Dragon Slayer Sword, cautiously approached it step by step. Finally, he saw clearly that the white thing was fluffy, like a newborn animal. Its body was not large, its head and limbs were curled, so he couldn’t see its full appearance, just a fluffy ball.

Then, this fluffy ball moved a bit. A fluffy tail emerged first, gently swaying at Su Chengyu, as if it was saying hello.

Su Chengyu relaxed a bit, waving his hand and saying, "Hello."

The fluffy creature slowly stretched out its four limbs, revealing four claws. Then it stretched out its head, and its two round eyes looked at Su Chengyu.

"It’s actually a white cat?"

Su Chengyu never expected that the stone monster formed by the Three Lives Stone was a flawless white cat.

This little cat was all white; you couldn’t find a single hair of a different color. It was bright white and shiny; it stuck out its tongue to lick its paw, and its eyes were round, looking at Su Chengyu, extremely adorable.

Although Su Chengyu had never had a pet, he was touched by this adorable Little White Cat.
