Gradually, the vine in Gu Zhiqi’s hand twined around one of Gu Xiyue’s wrists, while Yun Sen manipulated his Green Crystal Grass with the intention of entwining Gu Xiyue’s other wrist, when he heard Gu Zhiqi speak, "You don’t need to heal him now, continue releasing the Green Crystal Grass in your hand."
The situation with Gu Xiyue was due to the mental method, where the Green Crystal Grass was only to repair the internal injuries caused by the out-of-control Vital Energy. If it was to repair internal injuries, Gu Zhiqi alone could accomplish that.
Having Yun Sen learn alongside her was to pinpoint the issues Yun Sen had with manipulating the Green Crystal Grass.
Back in the Imperial Capital, she noticed that Yun Sen’s Ancient Martial Arts were on the verge of a breakthrough, yet after so many days, he still hadn’t achieved it.
Theoretically, with the Green Crystal Grass as an Auxiliary Item and a tendency to advance, it should be easy to reach the fifth order. But since he hadn’t yet broken through, it seemed there were some issues with his manipulation of the Green Crystal Grass.
Yun Sen responded blankly, and then continued controlling the Green Crystal Grass, without letting it wind around Gu Xiyue.
At this point, the vines of Green Crystal Grass in both their hands ceased to grow.
There were no more changes in the Green Crystal Grass in Yun Sen’s hand, but the color of the vine in Gu Zhiqi’s hand kept deepening until it turned from bright green to an almost black dark green.
Seeing this, Yun Sen blinked, glanced at his treasure, which seemed not to have changed color at all.
By the time Yun Sen’s gaze returned to the Green Crystal Grass in Gu Zhiqi’s hand, he saw a few pink Xiao Hua blossoming on the dark green vines.
Yun Sen was directly stunned, staring at Gu Zhiqi with wide eyes.
Could vines stimulated by Vital Energy also produce pink Xiao Hua?
He had thought that only Green Crystal Grass cultivated with nutrient solution could bloom flowers.
You should know that his treasure hadn’t really produced flowers until now, a whimper~
Gu Zhiqi glanced at the Green Crystal Grass in Yun Sen’s hand and roughly guessed his problem, "You’ve already established a connection with it, and you two are partners. It is not your slave; do not try to control it forcefully. You should try communicating with it, inquire about its needs. When borrowing its Vital Breath, you must first obtain its consent."
Upon hearing this, Yun Sen was momentarily stunned, but quickly recovered, "Okay."
He responded promptly and began trying to communicate with the Green Crystal Grass, asking for its opinion.
This communication made Yun Sen feel as if his connection with the Green Crystal Grass was more in sync, as though the Green Crystal Grass was becoming more affectionate towards him.
Soon after, Yun Sen received a request from the Green Crystal Grass; it was asking him for more Vital Energy.
Yun Sen blinked, immediately mobilized his Vital Energy, and provided it to the Green Crystal Grass.
Quickly, the vine’s color from the Green Crystal Grass darkened too, and at the same time, he could feel a nourishing feedback from the Green Crystal Grass.
Yun Sen was taken aback.
Soon, Yun Sen could feel his aura rising continuously... was this a breakthrough?!
Yun Sen’s escalating aura was also sensed by Gu Zhiqi, who glanced at him, "From now on, whether practicing Breath Regulation and Cultivation or trying to advance, whenever you circulate the mental method within your body, also circulate it through the Green Crystal Grass in the same round. In this way, your Vital Energy will nurture it, and it will nourish you in return. Moreover, your bond with the Green Crystal Grass will be strengthened."
Upon hearing this, Yun Sen’s eyes lit up, and he immediately exclaimed, "Okay."
"Go and advance, I’ve got this covered here," Gu Zhiqi said, turning to glance at Gu Huaijin.
Gu Huaijin knew what Gu Zhiqi intended to say and immediately took the initiative to speak: "I will act as his protector."
