Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Tier Four Metal Spirit Root!

Night fell.

Chen Mo opened the window, observing the situation outside by the moonlight. To be safe, he had also locked the Spiritual Birds he raised inside the house, worried that the appearance of evil entities later might cause some mishap. "That would be a massive loss!" he thought.

When this house was first built at that Time, a Defensive Array had also been set up. "I just don’t know if it can withstand the attacks of the evil entities," he pondered.

The moon rose above the willow branches.

Chen Mo gathered Spiritual Qi in his eyes and looked into the Memory Array. The Mysterious Red Fruit was growing wildly; in just a few breaths, it had become bright and succulent. It would be at most two or three hours until it matured. With his previous experience, Chen Mo naturally wouldn’t let it go to waste, much less let those evil entities from nowhere succeed!

In the quiet night, a RUSTLE finally echoed. Chen Mo held his breath and stared out the window. A moment later, two mangled silhouettes darted out from an unknown direction. Just like the ones he had seen four years ago, they had heads as large as bulls and entirely shriveled bodies, barely retaining a human shape. "Just what exactly are these ugly, bizarre things?" he wondered. The answer remained unknown.

Sure enough, after the two evil entities appeared, they quietly stood guard beside the Mysterious Red Fruit. The Memory Array he had set up didn’t seem to confuse their senses. After all, being drawn in from the unknown didn’t rely on eyes!

Chen Mo took a deep breath and fiercely struck out with two palms toward the direction of the evil entities. Searing flames surged forward like a rising tide, attacking with overwhelming force. By now, Chen Mo’s Flaming Palm had reached Great Success, and its power was worlds apart from before. The two lightning-fast strikes landed solidly on the evil entities! In the next instant, their shriveled bodies were instantly ignited, and two low roars tore through the night sky.

The attacked evil entities abruptly turned their heads, glaring with eyes so wide they seemed ready to split as they spotted Chen Mo popping his head out. And right at this Time, two blasts of the Geng Metal Finger arrived first despite being launched later, aimed straight at their eyes.

BOOM!

Before the evil entities could react, the attacks struck again. Flaming Palm strikes hailed down like falling meteors onto their dried bodies, beating them until they WAILED.

And at this Time, Chen Mo finally realized that these evil entities only had the strength of the Qi Refining Fifth and Sixth Layers. No wonder a Tier One Spirit Array set up by a Spirit Array Master in the Qi Refining Realm could withstand their attacks. "With that being the case, what do I have to be afraid of?" he thought. Even though he wasn’t afraid, he still attacked from behind the window just to be safe. A few breaths later, unable to bear the onslaught, the evil entities abandoned the soon-to-mature Spirit Fruit and fled in a panic.

The night sky returned to tranquility, a crescent moon hanging high on the horizon.

Chen Mo scarfed down a large mouthful of Spirit Rice, gradually restoring the Spiritual Qi he had consumed. At this Time, Kang also poked its head out from behind him. Seeing that the evil entities had run away, it patted its thick chest with its wings, letting out a sigh of relief. After driving off the covetous intruders, another hour passed. The sky had not yet brightened, but Chen Mo couldn’t wait any longer!

He dodged, utilizing the Spirit Snake Body Technique, and arrived in a flash. Watching the first Mysterious Red Fruit about to fall to the ground, he quickly reached out to pluck it and began gnawing on it in large bites. After Increased Production, nearly fifty fruits had grown on the one acre of Spirit Field. However, his mouth was too small and his eating too slow; Chen Mo simply couldn’t finish them in time! After swallowing one, he plucked another.

Right at this Time, a fully ripened Red Fruit inevitably fell to the ground. Just as it was about to rot, a lightning-fast shadow flashed over. In the next moment, a large beak furiously pecked at it. In just a breath or two, the Red Fruit was pecked clean by Kang before it could decay. In a flash of insight, a thought crossed Chen Mo’s mind. "Rather than letting them rot in the soil, it’s better to let Kang eat them!" he concluded.

He hastily roared, "You eat the ones that fall on the ground!"

With that said, the man and the chicken began a frantic race to eat. Utilizing the Spirit Snake Body Technique, Chen Mo steadily caught the falling fruits and ate them desperately. Kang, on the other hand, focused entirely on the ground; the moment a fruit fell, it charged forward as fast as flying and started pecking.

In less than half a cup of tea’s Time, the nearly fifty Red Fruits were either eaten or dropped, vanishing completely from the stems. Soon after, these stems and roots—including the Spirit Field beneath his feet—withered at a visible rate. A few breaths later, the branches and leaves that had just been brimming with vibrant Green turned into muddy water and melted into the soil. The Spirit Field under Chen Mo’s feet rapidly "dried up" until it completely lost its Spiritual Qi. It was as if its Spirit Vein had been severed, and it could no longer be used to grow any Spirit Plants.

The Transformation of the outside world was fleeting.

The upheaval within Chen Mo’s body, however, had only just begun. Having swallowed nearly thirty Red Fruits, the berserk Spiritual Qi within him slammed against his meridians with unstoppable force. The gentle, mellow Huai Mountain Qi Cultivation Technique suppressed this violent Spiritual Qi. Ignoring everything else, Chen Mo started casting the Golden Armor Technique. A Golden Armor began at his palms and slowly, bit by bit, spread toward his limbs. Now at the Qi Refining Fourth Layer, he was no longer as helpless in dealing with this as he had been four years ago.

While guiding the Spiritual Qi, he observed the Transformation on his interface. Two numbers kept jumping. One was the experience of the Golden Armor Technique, which continuously showed +3, +3...

The other was his Acquired Awakening of the Spirit Root! The experience behind the Metal Spirit Root was similarly skyrocketing. It rose from Tier One 73 points at the beginning to Tier Two 10 points, then to Tier Three... and finally stopped at Tier Four! The Transformation of the Metal Spirit Root came to an abrupt halt.

However, the medicinal effects brought by the Mysterious Red Fruit were not yet entirely over. Chen Mo took off his robe, watching the Golden Armor spread bit by bit from his limbs to his chest. Finally, after covering his face with a faint layer of gold, it stopped. The excess Spiritual Qi was suppressed by the Huai Mountain Qi Cultivation Technique, and gradually, a trace of it actually fused inside. It was as if a hint of gold had been added to the milky-white Spiritual Qi; he wouldn’t have noticed it without actively sensing it himself. Chen Mo didn’t know if this Transformation was good or bad, but right now, he had to take action!

Beside him, Kang was lying on the ground twitching from eating too many Mysterious Red Fruits. Its body simply couldn’t endure the berserk aura brought by the Spirit Fruit. Chen Mo squatted down and used the Vitality Technique to guide the Spiritual Qi inside its body. Perhaps because they shared the same origin, this Spiritual Qi quickly stabilized under his control. Slowly, the Spiritual Qi began to circulate throughout its entire body, condensing bit by bit in its abdomen.

Gradually, Kang stopped twitching and slowly opened its eyes. Its feathers took on a golden hue, and its originally robust chicken form became much more streamlined.

Whether they were Spiritual Birds or Demon Beasts, they were different from human Cultivators. Humans could practice Cultivation Immortal, nurturing their own inner worlds with the Spirit of Heaven and Earth to achieve longevity and transcendence. Demon Beasts, however, relied on their bloodlines. The Spiritual Qi brought by the Mysterious Red Fruit fused into Kang’s bloodline, giving it a trace of atavism! Now, it was taller and far more majestic in demeanor. Faintly, it actually exuded the oppressive aura of the Qi Refining First Layer!
