Chapter 1176: Missed Chance
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“I’ve told you to read more books. There are numerous incomplete ancient texts in the secret vault of the Northern Army. One of the books on plants and vegetation notes that when a rare spirit herb matures, it absorbs all the vitality in the area to aid its maturation.”
Braydon Neal’s eyes brightened.
A single Vermilion Fruit from the old bamboo was enough to boost Braydon’s vitality.
With such a rare treasure, it could save him ten days of hard work!
Little did they know that this kind of rare treasure could help others save several years of hard work, or even a decade.
In the past 40 days, Braydon had cultivated 40 wisps of purple Qi, increasing his vitality by 40,000 Na.
Braydon’s vitality had reached 181,000 Na, surpa.s.sing the limit of the 160,000 Na vitality of an eminent pinnacle.
He had successfully advanced to the ascendant pinnacle realm.
Little Fool’s vitality had also increased rapidly.
a.s.sisted by the three emperor seeds, Little Fool’s vitality had exceeded 200,000 Na.
Both brothers had made significant strides in strength.
However, it still wasn’t enough for them to roam freely in the wild.
They could barely protect themselves, as demonstrated by being chased for thousands of miles by an eighth-level spirit beast.
The upper limit of an ascendant pinnacle was 320,000 Na, and the threshold was 160,000 Na.
Both still had a long way to reach the inimitable pinnacle realm.
“There’s a ripe treasure,” Luke said slyly. “Shall we s.n.a.t.c.h it?”
“Let’s go and take a look!”
Braydon wouldn’t miss such an opportunity.
He had grown accustomed to his current life.
The two didn’t care when they could return to the ancient city.
Anyway, it was too far away, and cultivating here was as valid as cultivating back in the ancient city.
The current environment was more suitable for Braydon and Luke to cultivate.
Although it was dangerous, they wanted to increase their strength day and night to protect themselves here.
Life in the ancient city was safe but too stable, not suitable for martial artists.
Moreover, it involved many trivial matters that would instead delay cultivation.
In the wilderness, there were barely any trivial matters.
The only thing they needed to do was protect themselves.
Braydon and the little fool restrained their auras and stepped onto the wasteland.
The withered gra.s.s and trees under their feet turned to ashes.
These plants had their life force absorbed by something.
Braydon and Luke sped up like a gust of wind.
In the wilderness with no cover, the two living people were exposed and could easily become targets of spirit beasts.
If another eighth-level spirit beast appeared, the two still had to escape. The feeling of being hunted down was unpleasant.
In the vast wasteland, vegetation withered, and the ground caved in, forming a lake.
The lake was surrounded by dense vegetation, full of vitality compared to the surrounding wilderness.
Braydon looked at the lake and said softly, “I’m afraid that rare treasure has become a spirit. It absorbs the life force of surrounding plants for its own use, hiding itself.”
“These old spirit herbs are even smarter than Tobey,” the little fool said, still upset over a recent encounter with a running spirit ginseng.
Half a month ago, he almost caught a spirit ginseng wearing a red undergarment that could run away.
It looked like a three-year-old human baby with a white and tender body. The ginseng could make plants bloom wherever it pa.s.sed.
Braydon couldn’t help but find it amusing, and he admitted that his little brother was born lucky, encountering many treasures.
What Xiao Han encountered was more than just a chubby baby ginseng that could run.
Seven days ago, he came across a snow-white rabbit, which turned out to be a snow-white spirit mushroom.
This spirit mushroom, having taken on the appearance of a small white rabbit, was quite distinctive.
The crux of the matter was that the spirit ginseng didn’t run away; it was actually playing with the little fool.
In the end, the little fool boiled a pot of hot water and tricked the little rabbit into the pot.
The little rabbit kicked open the lid of the pot and ran away.
The meal that was about to reach his mouth flew away.
This made the little fool so angry!
Therefore, when these spirit herbs were mentioned, the little fool was very upset.
Braydon had never seen such a rare treasure before, nor had he seen any records of it in ancient books.
However, there were many treasures in the Ruins World.
Braydon and Luke suppressed their auras and quietly approached the dense forest outside the lake.
As soon as the two brothers entered, they sensed that something was amiss.
Because there were other people in the forest.
Braydon and Luke stood under a tree, peering into the depths of the forest where faint shadows were moving.
“Brother, there are aborigines!”
Luke said softly.
Braydon’s spiritual aperture emitted a ray of light as he released his mental power.
The little fool also opened his spiritual aperture and released his mental power.
The two aborigines, 500 meters away, were both males, wearing beast clothes.
They communicated in the aboriginal language.
Braydon and Luke could understand the aboriginal language.
It was the girl Jada who taught them.
However, the language was somewhat complicated, with thousands of grammatical nuances.
In simpler terms, there were many aboriginals, but they were scattered all over the Ruins World, forming small tribes or large tribes.
It was said that there were also superforces such as aboriginal cities and dynasties.
However, he didn’t know if it was true or not because Braydon and Luke had never seen it before.
The aboriginals were scattered all over the place, forming tribes.
The result was that two tribes would be separated by thousands of miles and speak different aborigine languages.
Neither of the two tribes understood each other.
Fortunately, Braydon could understand a little of what the two aboriginals were saying.
As for the little fool, he looked confused and obviously did not understand.
Jada had taught him many things.
But Luke had never put in any effort to learn.
The two aboriginals were complaining about something.
The young aborigine on the left said impatiently, “Did Elder Sibongile make a mistake? We’ve been guarding this place for nineteen days, and we haven’t even seen any rare treasure.”
“How could the tribe elder make a mistake? Besides, the plants in the wilderness have withered. There must be a rare treasure that has matured. As long as we find it and offer it to Lord White Tiger, the Mahona Tribe will definitely be protected.”
The aborigine man beside him said seriously.
Braydon stood under the tree and memorized a few key words.
Rare treasure, White Tiger, Mahona Tribe!
From the conversation between the two, it was not difficult to a.n.a.lyze the situation.
These aborigines came from the Mahona tribe.
This tribe was not far from here!
Braydon wandered in the wilderness for forty days and finally encountered an aborigine tribe.
Logically speaking, there were many aborigines.
But the ruins were too vast.
These indigenous tribes were scattered all over the place, making it not easy to encounter them.
Now, he had finally encountered one!
The people of the Mahona Tribe were all searching for mature treasures here.
From the looks of it, they hadn’t found it yet.
Braydon wanted to know what level the elder of the Mahona Tribe was.
