Chapter 99 Reciprocity: Giving Her Gifts
"What kind of expression is that? Don't think I can't see it. I can feel how you feel, honey. Don't forget we're in a contractual relationship now."
Honey, my foot.
Can you please stop being so disgusting? You're even more disgusting than these caterpillars.
They've been so focused on making money, these women are utterly shameless these days.
Tu Shan burst into laughter as she saw his jade-like body gradually turn pink.
Hahahaha!
I never imagined a toad could feel shy.
"Laugh, laugh, laugh! What's so funny? Why don't you hurry up and contract a caterpillar? Once it advances, it can help you escape in the future!"
"Right, right, how come I didn't think of that? Which one do you think is better for me to contract?"
“Pick one from among those caterpillars that are metamorphosing.”
"After I form the contract, the pure energy I receive will allow me to break through, and this broken body can't withstand it."
Seeing her hesitation, Xi Jin analyzed, "These caterpillars are only at the Golden Core stage, and the energy they can give you is not as much as when we formed a contract."
When it collapses, just give all your energy to the caterpillar; if you're lucky, it might break through to the sixth rank.
Tu Shan no longer hesitated. The pure energy could not only improve cultivation but also repair the body. Although it was not much, it was better than nothing.
After more than two years of using various methods to recover my body, I am now 30% better than when I first transmigrated.
There is still a big difference between him and ordinary people. At least now he doesn't pant after three steps or need to rest after five.
Breathing is easier, I can walk slowly for an hour without any problems, and I don't get dizzy or experience blurred vision easily.
Looking at the light blue cocoons appearing on the ground, she looked around but couldn't find one that satisfied her.
"Which one should I choose: one that makes money?"
With a sweep of her divine sense, she locked onto one, and with a flick of her tongue, the one she had chosen appeared before her eyes.
Tu Shan didn't ask any further questions, but offered a drop of her heart's blood and silently recited the covenant.
A red six-pointed star pattern appears on the sole of the foot, signifying the signing of the contract.
A contract line appeared in his mind, and he sat cross-legged, waiting for feedback.
Soon, the pure energy rushed straight to her dantian. Without hesitation, she reserved one percent to nourish her body, and then poured all the rest of the energy into the contract line.
The energy travels along the contract line to a light blue cocoon the size of an adult's palm.
Time passed second by second, and the light blue cocoon grew at a visible speed. When a cocoon the size of a basketball appeared in front of us, the energy was just delivered.
"Is this commotion level five or six?"
"Sixth tier! Fifth tier is only the size of a palm."
"Do they have to break out of their cocoons every time they advance?"
"Yes! Only by successfully breaking out of the cocoon can one truly advance and transform."
Tu Shan stared at the cocoon, which was only the size of a basketball, paused for a moment, and said uncertainly, "It's only this big, how is it going to carry me away? Like birds, using its claws to grab me?"
Or could I stand on its back? Those wings are so small, would they be big enough for one foot?
He glanced at her with disdain and replied, "You should rest first. Don't expect it to come out in ten days or half a month."
"Huh? That won't do. How about we leave in the next couple of days and go to Taobao first, then let it come to us?"
Tu Shan didn't want to wait any longer; those Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators outside might come in and snatch her treasure at any time.
Xi Jin shook his head: "No, it's at its most vulnerable right now. If we leave and other monsters or the Blue Flash Poison Butterfly peels off its cocoon, it's doomed!"
"What? This cocoon can be peeled open? It looks pretty resilient."
Tu Shan squatted down and gently tapped a few times.
"Boom!"
It made a crisp sound, and was covered with a layer of light blue silk, which was wrapped in a thick, transparent, gelatinous substance like glass.
"What is this? It's quite pretty."
"You'll definitely like this stuff; it's the saliva you just collected that can detoxify you."
Tu Shan exclaimed excitedly, "Such a big piece! We've struck it rich!"
"...Have some backbone. You're not planning to keep it?"
What does it matter?
With a helpless tone, Xi Jin explained, "This transparent layer not only protects the Blue Flash Poison Butterfly from harm, but it is also energy. You can see that the outer layer is relatively hard, while the inside is like a liquid."
Only when it has fully absorbed the fluid inside and broken through this barrier can it truly become a butterfly.
If the body's fluids are deprived, it will stunt growth and may even die.
Tu Shan sighed, then suddenly remembered the saliva and felt a little ashamed.
"If I make them spit, will they be unable to grow up?"
"No, there's a big difference between the two. The drool will come back in a few days after it's been rested."
And if they are lucky enough to survive, they will remain in a weakened state unless they safely advance to the next level.
After listening to Xi Jin's story, she obediently climbed onto the soft couch to rest.
Tu Shan would glance at the money-making guardian from time to time, and the days passed by like this.
"It's a money pit! Do you think these Blue Flash Poison Butterflies can sell?"
There was no other way. Looking at this huge pile of cocoons, all of which would become fifth-tier demon beasts after their breakthroughs, she wanted to "give" some to her current close friends.
As friends, they would surely like to reciprocate by giving her something.
Of course, sending spirit stones would be even better.
Rolling my eyes at the money-making scheme, I'm speechless.
Do you have a monster bag? Can you put it back in?
No, it can't be!
"Then why are you still talking nonsense!"
No!
If I don't take advantage of her, I'll be letting her down, since she always cares about her friends.
Pick up the communication jade and send messages to several "good friends".
Tu Shan: "My good friends, I have something good here that you need to come and get for yourselves."
Geng Yu: What good stuff?
Tu Shan: A fifth-tier demon beast, would you like to form a contract with it?
Geng Yu: Really? I want it! I'll be right there! What do I need to prepare?
Tushan: Spiritual Stone.
After replying to Geng Yu, he quickly returned to his apprentice.
Musen: Master, do you have something good to introduce to your good disciple?
Tu Shan: I have a fifth-tier great demon here, you can form a contract with it, do you want it?
Musen: A contract? Wasn't the spell for contracting monsters lost ten thousand years ago?
Upon seeing his message, Tu Shan couldn't help but shudder.
His grandfather's.
Careless.
I never expected this to happen.
She thought that people didn't sign contracts with monsters because they looked down on them.
The spell for this contracted monster was purchased from the system.
pit!
Huge pitfall!
That bastard Geng Yu knows about the broken contract spells on the Misty Continent, yet he still doesn't explain it to her.
He's going to drive me crazy.
Tu Shan gritted his teeth and replied: "You should be a good disciple. Don't ask so many questions or talk so much nonsense. Just tell me if you're coming or not."
Musen: Here, the address.
Looking at Geng Yu's freshly asked question, Tu Shan felt an urge to punch him.
Geng Yu: You know about contracts? It has to be you. I didn't expect you to know about something that has been lost for thousands of years.
Tu Shan: Get lost! Call Zhong Qi and come find me with your master.
Open Zhong Qi's chat.
Zhong Qi: Yes, I'm coming over now.
Tu Shan: Okay, let my unreliable apprentice bring you over.
Then she left a message for Musen, saying she didn't want to look at his contact number again.
Forget it, one pit or two pits make no difference.
Continue sending messages to Jian Wu, Cheng Nan, and Ji Se.
