Light Cultivation
Eps. 199 — Heavenly Fruit
The first thing Jian Chen encountered when his gaze suddenly darkened was that he was lying on a bed made of wood.
Jian Chen tried to get up and move his body but his body was unwilling to follow his will, he only felt all his body feel weak and not powerful.
Jian Chen was finally just staring at the ceiling, the house that Jian Chen occupied was fairly simple even looking like a hut, this scene felt familiar to Jian Chen.
"I don't think you're gonna wake up again..." A melodious voice rang out within Jian Chen's head which came from Lily's voice.
"Lily, what really happened, how's my clan and my parents doing?"
Lily sighed softly and folded her arms around her chest, "I thought you were unconscious, your previous strength was too great for this world..."
Jian Chen did not understand what Lily meant, right when he saw Jian Wu on the stab there was an instant boost of angry emotions from within his body.
Jian Chen's body was hot then before his gaze darkened, after which Jian Chen did not know what was happening because he knew he had been in the flower bed before.
"Actually I'm confused as to where to explain it from but it looks like you should know what's going on..." Lily scratched her head then explained everything as Jian Chen was unconscious especially about Jian Chen's different form when the subconscious had controlled his body.
This should have been rare but different the case if the particular bloodline and the bloodline in question were Jian Chen's.
Jian Chen opened his eyes wide after learning that his body was changing, ranging from his hair and eyeballs to the last Jian Chen had 3 pairs of wings.
Jian Chen looked towards his hair but it was now black again, it seemed when he realized everything was back.
Lily then explained about the essence of the story that Jian Chen's strength was many times stronger when the mode, Jian Chen could easily reverse the Jian clan's war like turning the palm of the hand.
What shocked Jian Chen was when Lily told him the time element. He just found out there is an element that Lily thinks is the strongest element in the universe.
"Why didn't you tell me there was another element?" Jian Chen asked, thinking Lily was hiding something information from him.
"Can you not ask me first when I tell you..." Lily clucked in annoyance, "I did deliberately not explain that because the time element should not exist..."
Lily does not tell more clearly about the time element but focuses on the story back.
With the same element Jian Chen could turn the tide of warfare in a relatively short period of time, none of the Liu clan had survived due to Jian Chen's strength.
"When everything was done, you flew into the high sky at the same speed as me before suddenly my gaze darkened. I thought I was going to die but seeing you wake up again made me breathe a little easier."
Jian Chen was silent for a moment, he still digested everything including his still mysterious self-strength.
Jian Chen was still unable to move, that was when he realized there was no inner strength in his body. It seemed like Lily's story was indeed true until the energy within Jian Chen was exhausted without cause.
"You may not be able to move because your strength exceeds your body's capacity..." Lily explained to Jian Chen who was still confused. "Would you recover your inner strength?"
"You seem to be worried about me, don't you?"Jian Chen narrowed his eyes before grinning widely.
"Worry your head! I just don't want you to die so I'm dead, too..." Lily snorted and then threw away her face.
Jian Chen chuckled softly, he then closed his eyes trying to concentrate to gather some inner strength. Actually Jian Chen was also a little curious about where he was but Lily was similarly ignorant of him.
Seeing as being in a hut or a small house, there may be someone who has it. While waiting for Jian Chen to gather his strength within.
Five hours passed finally Jian Chen had recovered all his profound strength, on the other hand through the inner power he could slightly move his body, at least it could be used to just turn his head.
Jian Chen was a little astonished, he was still waiting for where the owner of this place was even though from the open window the day was already near evening.
The night was getting darker and the day was getting darker, Jian Chen was sure the owner of this house would return to rest but after a few hours until the night became late, the owner of the house still did not return.
"Is this an empty house?" Jian Chen muttered in confusion. "I don't think so?"
Jian Chen saw that there was a candlelight not far from him lying down, the candle had been lit since Jian Chen had awoken and he was sure someone must have lit it.
Because Jian Chen could not move, he could only sleep on while he was not sleepy to sleep.
"Lily, are you asleep?"
Jian Chen said to the girl in the red dress, he could not go to the dantian realm because of his condition on the other hand he got bored from waiting.
"What!?" Lily replied to him in a jutek tone making Jian Chen smile awkwardly.
Come to think of it Jian Chen should have been happy to meet a girl as beautiful as Lily, just that with that girl's always-difficult attitude made it difficult to open a chat.
Jian Chen then remembered that before he realized he had been in a vast expanse of flowers in his dreams.
Although the girl did not seem to care Jian Chen explained to Lily that he thought it was called a dream that looked real.
Jian Chen also explained that he ate seven strange apples in his dream.
Lily's reaction turned out to be far from her estimation moreover the girl turned out to know the seven fruits Jian Chen said.
"Is that not your dream?" Jian Chen asked hearing Lily's surprised reaction.
"It's definitely not a dream, I don't know the reason how you were there but those 7 pieces do exist, the name is 7 Celestial Fruits."
Lily grew curious about Jian Chen's identity, and explained that the Seven Heavenly Fruits were a sought-after resource around the world even in Lily's world.
One fruit alone is very rare to find it, above the vastness of the world, looking for it is not much different from looking for a needle in a haystack
"In that dream I ate it all, what happened to me?"
"Each fruit has its own benefits, does the woman who gave you the fruit explain it?"
Jian Chen said it slowly.
"Hm, then whatever it is your strength will increase after eating it..." Lily nodded slowly.
The night had finally passed followed by the sun that was about to rise, Jian Chen already did not expect the owner of this house or hut to return because he was too bored to hope until he finally heard the sound of the door being opened.
"Oh, you've reached Chen'er, I think it will take a long time..." A bearded man, about forty years old smiled widely at him.
Jian Chen's breathing was stifled when he knew him. "Gu-teacher!?"
