Feng Ruqing was anxious.Her muscles and veins were injured because she had eaten the green fruit. She did not find a treatment for herself and now even her dantian was hurt.
"Am I going to be a useless person for the rest of my life?"
That sword released some spiritual qi before Feng Ruqing could find a way to draw the sword out.
Soon, the spiritual force released by the black sword filled the whole of her dantian.
Feng Ruqing was soon energetic again with the power she had gained. Her vision was not blurry anymore.
"What is happening?" Feng Ruqing frowned.
At first, she treated the black sword as a holy thing. She had burned it and drowned it in the water for the sake of a pact. She had even asked Fu Chen to bite the sword.
So, there was a crack in the sword.
She had even made use of the spirit beasts that were in a pact with her.
But, the black sword did not respond and just it lay there quietly.
The black sword had responded when she had made a breakthrough at first. But, there was usually no change in the black sword.
She thought the black sword was broken and could not be used anymore. Hence, she threw it into the medium. She thought of giving it to Fu Chen one day as a snack.
But, the black sword went into her dantian without her knowing how. The black sword had even provided her with spiritual qi.
Feng Ruqing was quiet for a short while.
If there was anything different with her that day was that her dantian was empty.
The black sword could enter her dantian because it was empty.
Nevertheless, the sudden change filled Feng Ruqing with happiness.
She could grow Grade-5 spirit herbs by herself with the help of the black sword. She did not have to put all her hope on Tang Zi.
"So what if I grew the spirit herbs the fast and quick way?"
She just wanted to use the spirit herbs for detox purposes and no other. Even if the quality of the spirit herbs were compromised, she could still use them for detox.
Feng Ruqing quickly buried seeds of another spirit herb. She put her hand onto the ground and endless spiritual qi came out of her palm and entered the seeds. The seeds soon sprouted.
"Eh?"
Feng Ruqing saw some changes when she saw how fast the spirit herbs grew.
Her spiritual qi was clearly purer than before.
Pure spiritual qi had no significance for fights.
But, a clear spiritual qi was important for cultivating the spirit herbs. It was because the time used to cultivate the spirit herbs could be reduced.
Normally, there were always impurities in spiritual qi.
Therefore, one could only release some spiritual qi into the spirit herbs on a daily basis. Then, the spirit herbs would absorb them and disintegrate the extra impurities. Only after that, could one water the spirit herbs.
Hence, the quality of the spirit herbs would be influenced if they were cultivated at a fast pace.
There would be some shortcomings in the spirit herbs if there were too many impurities in them.
Moreover, if the spirit herbs could not absorb a part of the spiritual qi because there were too many impurities in it. Then, it would be a waste.
Feng Ruqing was rather happy with what she had found out. She could now save more time and Nalan Yan would surely be saved.
Moreover, the black sword had helped her to regain her spiritual qi whenever she had used up only a third of her spiritual force. Therefore, she had enough spiritual force to grow the spirit herbs.
It was truly a blessing in disguise!
***
At the door of the manor.
Feng Tianyu rubbed his palms nervously. There were b.l.o.o.d.y-red streaks in her eyes. He fixed his eyes on the door of the room without blinking his eyes.
"It has been two days.
"Qing"er still has not come out of the room."
He did not dare to go and bother her for he was afraid that he might affect her effort in saving Yan"er.
But, it was obvious that Yan"er was close to death before. Now, two days had pa.s.sed. "I don"t know if... she"s still alive?"
