In his arms, Zhizhi's body stiffened.
Xu Qiuqian couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Then he looked at Banjing and the others.
"Clan leader, we didn't know that it has always looked like this for so long."
Several others nodded in agreement.
"It doesn't show it to us either."
"That's right, don't you have scales? Hahahaha..."
When Xu Qiuqian noticed these words coming out, Zhizhi's body stiffened again.
"You don't have scales?" she asked aloud.
After squeaking for a long time, he muttered: "It's long."
"Show me."
Logically speaking, Zhizhi should have grown scales after such a long time.
After that, put Zhizhi down.
Zhizhi hesitated for a long time before taking off the disguise ring. Xu Qiuqian saw Zhizhi's current appearance.
Most of the body is still flesh-pink skin, and there are only about twenty scales. Just looking at those twenty scales, you can see that the scales are very beautiful.
It has very emerald green scales, as beautiful as gems. You can imagine that if the scales all over its body grow out, it must be a very beautiful beast of God.
In the Tianyi Beast Clan, when they are minors, they use the color of their fur and the fluffiness of their fur to determine whether their cubs are healthy and beautiful.
After adulthood, look at the color and brightness of its scales.
"Why did it only grow more than twenty pieces?" Xu Qiuqian frowned.
She had always thought that Zhizhi might have accidentally drank some ripening drugs, which caused it to reach adulthood earlier than half the age.
But he didn't expect that it had been more than a month before Zhizhi only had twenty scales growing on his body.
Yuanyuan and the others also looked puzzled.
"Yes, we grew scales in two or three days."
"Zhizhi, why are you different from us?"
"Zhizhi, is there something wrong with you?"
Hearing this, Zhizhi couldn't stand it.
"I have no problem!" it shouted. "I have no problem!"
Even too emotional.
Yuanyuan and the others were shocked and didn't speak again.
Seeing this, Xu Qiuqian knelt down and stroked Zhizhi gently.
"Zhizhi, if you have any difficulties, just tell me. If you don't say anything, how can I help you?"
Tears welled up in Zhizhi's eyes.
"Master, I don't know why this is happening, and I don't know why it took so long for my scales to swell so much. I'm whining..."
Next to him, Ban Jie suddenly said: "That's it."
Xu Qiuqian looked at Banji.
"What are you talking about, Hanji?"
Banja shook his slender half tail.
"The former clan leader once said that if we, the Providence Beasts, want to reach adulthood early, in addition to practicing, we must stay around the Living Tree. If we are far away from the Living Tree, our scales will grow very slowly."
Xu Qiuqian was startled.
She didn't know there was such a thing.
Banjiu continued: "And even next to the living tree, the scales will not grow in a few days, it will take at least half a year. This half year is when our providential beasts are most vulnerable and unable to use magical powers. , needing protection from the clan.
If there is no living tree, no cultivation, and the environment is not good, it is possible that the scales on the body will not grow fully for four to five years or even more than ten years. For us, the living tree is not only the mother soul that gave birth to us, but also can nourish us. . "
"Then why do we grow scales in three days?"
Xu Qiuqian glanced at Yuanyuan.
Houfu, Yuanyuan, Xiaohei, and Qingming who she rescued were all born under the Yi family's living tree, and they were all forced to take ripening drugs. When they grew scales, they were not even real adults, but just adults. Ripening drugs put their bodies into a state of ripening.
The magical power of the Heavenly Will Beast that has been ripened in this way is very unstable. Perhaps this is why the Yi family uses the method of directly pulling out the Heavenly Will Beast's scales.
Zhizhi might have accidentally taken some ripening medicine before, which caused his body to start losing hair.
But it's only a little bit, so there's a good chance the medicine won't work anymore.
If you want Zhizhi to grow scales quickly, firstly, Zhizhi must cultivate to adulthood as soon as possible, and secondly, he needs a living tree.
And round them.
Forcibly ripening will cause harm to the body, and they must cultivate to the third level as soon as possible. In addition, they are living trees.
Xu Qiuqian glanced at Houfu.
As the leader of the clan, she could feel that although the external injuries on Houfu's body were gradually improving, the inside was in very poor condition. It would not be an exaggeration to describe it as riddled with holes.
It might be possible to recover some of it with the blood of Divine Bird Yi, but the safest way is to nourish it from the living tree.
After pondering for a moment, Xu Qiuqian said: "Let's do this. From now on, you will practice with me. After I form the elixir, I will go to Banjing, your former tribe, to see if the living tree can be transplanted. When the time comes, the living tree will be transplanted." come over."
Banji's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Really?! Chief, can you really transplant the living tree?"
"Of course, but you also have to work hard."
"Don't worry, Patriarch, I will definitely work hard!"
"Okay then, just practice hard."
"Clan leader, please practice with us, right here." Banji said: "I remember that when I was very young, the former clan leader would take us to practice together."
It looked at Xu Qiuqian expectantly, Zhizhi and Yuanyuan also looked at Xu Qiuqian brightly.
Naturally, Xu Qiuqian would not refuse.
Anyway, for her, it doesn't matter where she practices, and if she goes back to practice, she will practice in the space of the Hunling Jade Pendant. After all, the speed of time in the space is different from that outside, so she will have more time to practice.
Then just practice with them here for a while.
Xu Qiuqian sat down, while Zhizhi and the others crawled around Xu Qiuqian, lowering their heads and closing their eyes.
It looked like he was asleep, but the aura on his body was different.
Xu Qiuqian circulated the Earth Spirit Heart Sutra, and the earth spirit energy gently surrounded her, and was incorporated into her body as she breathed in and out.
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that this time's practice seemed different from before.
The speed at which spiritual energy is incorporated into the body seems to be much faster than before, and the speed at which spiritual energy is converted into the Dantian is also much faster.
What puzzled her even more was that she found that besides the earth spiritual energy, there were other spiritual energy trying to penetrate into her body, although she failed.
But now she felt that practicing was very good, and she didn't want to stop and check the reason, so she didn't pay attention to it.
Generally speaking, spiritual beasts and monster beasts cannot practice.
Their cultivation basically relies on time to accumulate and slowly improve. They have no cultivation techniques. If they suddenly improve their cultivation, they can only use heavenly materials and earthly treasures with rich spiritual energy to improve their cultivation.
The cultivation of the Divine Beast is more like a kind of meditation.
"Hey?"
Not far away, Huahua tilted her head as she watched the Heavenly Beast surrounding Xu Qiuqian.
There was doubt in its little eyes, as if it had seen something very surprising.
There will be more later
