My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife
chapter-1836

Qingfeng rolled his eyes as he threatened the spiritual root before him, "If you don't want to die, then obey me, or else I'll completely absorb you, and leave not a trace of your body or soul."

The spiritual root was terrified as it hurriedly nodded and said, "I'll do whatever you tell me to, as long as you don't kill me."

Qingfeng looked at the spiritual root before him with a hint of a smile. He knew that the spiritual root was terrified of being killed completely because it didn't want to die.

Aside from humans, demonic beasts, and a spiritual root with intelligence with over thousands of years of training won't willingly want to become human food.

Qingfeng said, "Don't worry, I won't absorb all of you. However you must offer at least 90% of your spiritual root to me, and I'll leave you with 10%.

The spiritual root shook its head nonstop when it heard Qingfeng, as it said loudly, "You can't do this to me. If I only have 10% left, then it would be extremely slow for me to absorb the energy from nature. It will take me at least a thousand years to grow back, you'll never wait until then."

Qingfeng thought the spiritual root was right. If he left it with too little, then his training speed would be slowed down.

He thought for a moment and then said quietly, "How about this. I want at least 60% of your spiritual root, and I'll leave you with 40%. Then you can absorb the energy of nature, and give me a bit of your spiritual stones every year or half to increase my abilities."

The spiritual root seemed unwilling and upset, but it had no other choice because its fate was completely in the hands of this human.

Qingfeng looked at the spiritual root with disdain, as he said, "To prevent you from running away, I will plant a spiritual mark on you. If you try to run away, then it will destroy your soul and not allow you to reincarnate."

After he spoke, he activated the spirit energy in the depth of his mind, and with a light point of his right-hand finger, he drew an ancient talisman script.

This ancient talisman script contained boiling energy, but it wasn't vital essence strength. Instead it was the mysterious spirit energy that formed the void talisman script. The Spiritual Mark contained hints of Qingfeng's spiritual energy, as it imprinted into the depth of the spiritual root's mind.

The spiritual root felt its body tremble without reason, but when Qingfeng released his spirit energy, it was as if it had seen an ancient god.

Even though the spiritual root had acquired intelligence, it knew this youth before it was no average master, because he had invincible powers.

The spiritual root had no other choice but to give 60% of its body to Qingfeng.

Qingfeng's eyes filled with joy, as he took a third for himself and then gave three thousand monarch grade spiritual stones to Dark Night Emperor for him to absorb.

Qingfeng still had three thousand left, with great excitement he remembered to share the monarch grade spirituality stones with Sky Wolf Emperor, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and the others.

Qingfeng knew that even so, he still had at least two thousand monarch grade spiritual stones left, and if he absorbed those, then his power could increase by at least several realms.

However contrary to his plans, Qingfeng forgot about the Dragon Bone in his right index finger.

The Dragon Bone wanted the spiritual stones as well, as it released golden Dragon Bone energy and directly sucked in half of the spiritual stones, only leaving Qingfeng with a thousand or so.

Whenever Qingfeng got spiritual elixirs in the past, the Chaos Millstone and Fire Dragon's soul would always come out and fight for it.

Now that he acquired spiritual stones, he thought it would be safe from Chaos Millstone, but who knew Qingfeng's Dragon Bone would absorb the spiritual stones?

However, the Dragon Bone was polite enough to only absorb half, and save half for Qingfeng.

Qingfeng felt speechless, as he held the leftover spiritual stones and said, "Let's find a place to train, and absorb all of these spiritual stones."

Qingfeng and others searched around, found a cliff with a cave, and entered it.

Certainly, there was a demonic beast inside the cave but it was killed by Qingfeng with one slap, and the cave became Qingfeng's cave.

Qingfeng then placed a defensive array formation at the cave opening. He had monarch grade spiritual stones and could create monarch grade array formations such that even if Meng Lin arrived, it would take him ages to break in.

After he set the array formation, he walked towards the depth of the cave, sat down with crossed legs, and placed his spiritual stones before him, as he began to activate the Heavenly Immortal Chant.

A green light beam formed on Qingfeng, as his chest rose and settled, and all of his pores opened, like a straw that absorbed all the spirituality on the spiritual stones into his body.

Qingfeng's body used to be full of vital essence, even in his spirit nucleus, but now that it absorbed in spiritual energy, it took some time to adjust.

However, the spiritual energy was clearly more powerful than vital essence, as it was more pure and full of energy, squeezing out all the vital essence and even cleansing it.

Qingfeng's body was covered with black sweat, which was not normal sweat but actually the pulp and dirt inside his body.

His body released stinky energy, as his spirit nucleus changed; the purple spirit nucleus decreased from the size of an egg, smaller and smaller, until it became the size of a bean.

Although the spirit nucleus now grew small, Qingfeng felt an increase in his spiritual power, because he sucked in spiritual energy, which turned into spiritual power.

Plus Qingfeng's skin, muscles, and tendons now became stronger than ever, as if his whole body was radiating strength like an ancient tiger.

Outside the cave, Meng Lin led the vice city lord, chief commander, and several other self-cultivators and approached.

Meng Lin took out a tracking spiritual device, as he said quietly, "I've felt the spiritual root inside, because when it escaped, I poured some powder on it while no one else noticed. Not even the Sky Array Emperor and the Spirit Talisman Emperor."

The vice city lord stepped beside Meng Lin and said, "Your Royal Highness, if you say the spiritual root is inside the cave, then I'll look inside."

As soon as the vice city lord stepped forward to enter the cave, a strong force bounced his body right back.
