Why did Peggy, who followed Jun Changxiao to East Sea Fishing Province, have such a low appearance rate, only used at the finale to open the national treasury?
Because as an earth-attribute spirit beast, it had miraculous effects nurturing soil, but was really terrible at combat.
Like the various disasters experienced at sea.
If at that time, instead of having Li Qingyang and Xiao Zuiji and others act, he let Peggy resist, the scene presented would definitely be it being abused all over the ship.
Although Peggy had awakened the Earth-Swallowing Sacred Beast bloodline and improved in strength, due to being in a growth period and its attribute nature, using it for logistics was fine, but sending it to the front lines for battle was inadequate.
Now, after installing a skill that, like Intermediate Dragon Flame Technique, belonged to area-effect damage, it finally had the ability to fight for its master.
Peggy was very happy.
So much so that after releasing frantically until exhausted and collapsing, happiness still showed on its face.
What Dog Leftover said, every sentence it remembered deeply in its heart. In the future, when reaching the pinnacle of martial dao, it must accompany Master!
“Whir whir!”
The nearby time-space larvae circled around earth spikes eating away. The taste was indeed much stronger than ‘vomit’!
Standing on the main peak, Jun Changxiao delightfully discovered the little guy had only been partnered with Peggy for half a day, and its body already showed visible changes.
A good sign!
If it could rely on soil with spiritual energy to raise the time-space larvae to adulthood, it would definitely save massive amounts of martial dao resources.
…
The next day.
Peggy recovered yesterday’s vigor and continued eating and spitting soil.
The time-space larvae was responsible for eating and eating, eating from day to night without stopping.
Several days later.
The little guy ate from earthworm-sized to finger-sized. The change was quite significant.
Peggy during this time consistently operated under high workload. Although exhausted to complete fatigue every day, after recovery, its strength also showed obvious improvement.
“Sect Master.”
One day, Old Wei came with a worried face: “If we let the little worm keep eating, the entire Tiegu Mountain might be eaten away.”
Peggy ate soil but could spit it out and also improve soil attributes.
The time-space larvae purely ate. After eating, everything was self-digested in its belly.
Over time, the ground outside the medicine field had already had an entire layer eaten away. In the long run, this definitely wasn’t a solution.
“This seat will have them go eat outside.” Jun Changxiao said.
“…”
Old Wei said speechlessly: “Sect Master, this little worm’s appetite is too great. I’m afraid by the time it’s raised to adulthood, the entire Xingyun Continent will be eaten by it.”
“True.”
Jun Changxiao realized only eating soil wouldn’t work.
So he began changing strategy, adding various ores and medicinal materials to the time-space larvae’s diet.
Although it could temporarily solve the soil loss problem, it also increased the Medicine Hall’s workload, because they had to allocate personnel and energy to plant more medicinal materials for the little guy to eat.
Jun Changxiao comforted: “For Wangu Sect’s eternal great cause, Old Wei, work harder.”
The time-space larvae’s value wasn’t only manifested in potentially connecting to the Soul Clan continent. In the future, it could also go to other planes.
Although raising it would cost much, when that day truly arrived, all major planes would be like his own backyard. Come and go as he pleased. The benefits brought would be simply immeasurable!
No good.
Thinking about freely entering and exiting all major planes, Dog Leftover felt a bit excited, as if immediately reaching life’s pinnacle.
…
“Whir whir!”
Outside the medicine field, after the Earth Technique cooldown recovered, Peggy again activated several hundred shining patterns.
This time wasn’t for showing off, but to provide purer food for the time-space larvae, helping it grow faster.
“Delicious!”
“Too delicious!”
The little guy wasn’t polite either, eating all the earth spike blocks, then lying on the ground with a bulging belly.
Jun Changxiao observed from afar, saying: “The earth-attribute energy Peggy condenses with its skill has even better effects on the little guy, and it doesn’t waste soil. Can have it deploy occasionally.”
The next day.
He brought Peggy and the time-space larvae into the Time-Space Secret Realm.
The Earth Technique cooldown was three days once. Under time acceleration, it could be deployed many more times. The feeding effect would also be very fast.
“Peggy.”
Jun Changxiao said: “You’ll temporarily live here. Deploy Earth Technique whenever you can.”
“Yes!”
…
Three days later.
Peggy emerged from the secret realm as if it had lost its soul.
“Plop!”
Just stepping on the ground, it directly collapsed with tongue hanging out.
Three days outside, one hundred fifty days in the secret realm. It deployed Earth Technique fifty times total.
Under this life-demanding ceaseless crazy deployment, whether in controlling earth-attribute aura or using the skill, Peggy became even stronger. Truly painful yet happy.
With more food supplements, the time-space larvae had grown from finger-sized when entering to now about the size of an adult human’s wrist. The body size change was quite significant!
And this was merely three days’ time.
After the system saw the time-space larvae’s obvious changes, it immediately felt a bit depressed.
Earlier it had joked that the little guy might need ten thousand years to grow. Now it seemed it was going to… get slapped in the face again!
The host has the Strongest Sect System. I’m the Most Face-Slapped System!
This life was unbearable!
“The little guy’s growth speed is still too slow.” Jun Changxiao wasn’t satisfied with the time-space larvae’s growth, thinking: “If there were a higher-grade time-space secret realm with faster time acceleration, that would be wonderful.”
The system remained silent.
To avoid being slapped in the face, it dared not speak or ask.
…
Several days later.
Jiang Xie returned dejectedly from outside.
This time searching the continent for a period, he still had no leads on his sister’s whereabouts.
“Old Jiang.”
Jun Changxiao said: “Come, this seat will take you to East Sea Fishing Province.”
Thus, the next day after eating food made by Liu Wanshi, he summoned the Ancient Battlefield and brought Jiang Xie toward the East Sea.
This time he didn’t bring disciples along. Since it was mainly about finding someone, Dog Leftover didn’t waste time either, rushing to East Sea Fishing Province at top speed.
It had been some time since coming here. The place was a bit lively.
The three great empires, due to Zhenwei Emperor’s death, boldly launched fierce attacks on the Zhenwei Empire.
Although they’d lost their backbone, the Zhenwei Empire had many soldiers and generals, consistently defending and protecting cities without losing a single one.
Before Zhenwei Emperor rose, there had already been constant warfare here. Unless achieving great unification, there would always be endless flames of war.
Jun Changxiao didn’t care. He brought Jiang Xie and stayed in East Sea Fishing Province for several days. After having no harvest, he decided to set off for the South Sea or West Sea.
These great provinces separated by vast distances might require a year or more for other martial artists, with even possibility of death. But before Jun Changxiao with the Ancient Battlefield, it was simply a trip that could be taken at will.
“Forget it.”
Jiang Xie said: “Sect Master, let’s go back.”
Searching again and again, failing again and again.
He no longer had courage to continue searching, afraid of ultimately getting an unacceptable answer.
Moreover, the West Sea and South Sea were more dangerous than the East Sea. The Sect Master had never been there before. If lost in them, that would be trouble.
“Really not going?”
“Not going.”
Jun Changxiao said: “Alright then.”
Controlling the Ancient Warship, he was about to return to the continent when a stream of light suddenly rose from the firmament behind, with great momentum shooting straight into the clouds!
“This is…” Jun Changxiao said delightedly: “A Spiritual Energy Revival Land!”
