Yuan Zun: Starts With Eight Ancestral Symbols

Yuan Zun - Chapter 9: Little Marten: Boss

With the items traded, Mu Chen prepared to leave and declined the invitation to dinner. Now that the family must have something to say, Mu Chen would not stand out.

"My dear nephew, when you are free in the future, you can come to the palace and visit. You and Yuan'er are of the same age," Zhou Qing said as he handed a pass to Mu Chen, having a good impression of him.

"Okay, I'll come when I have time."

"Uncle Zhou, when you broke your arm, your body must have sustained some injuries. Although the spiritual liquid can't make your broken arm regenerate, it does have some effect on your hidden injuries."

"Give two drops of spiritual liquid to Aunt Qin. More is useless and can't replenish your lifespan. As for the remaining two drops, you and Zhou Yuan each have one drop. It's good for your health."

Zhou Qing grabbed the empty sleeve of his right arm with his left hand and nodded gently.

Suddenly, a maid ran out anxiously and said breathlessly, "The king... the queen... after drinking the bottle of medicine... vomited a mouthful of black blood..."

"What? Is Qin Yu okay?"

Zhou Qing was shocked, and his majestic face was filled with worry.

"Uncle Zhou, don't worry. This is a normal phenomenon. The spiritual liquid clears the meridians in the body and replenishes some of the missing essence. Aunt won't be so weak now," Mu Chen reassured him.

The maid nodded and added, "Your Majesty, I haven't finished yet. The queen looks very good now, much better than before."

"Haha... I see. You go back and take care of Qin Yu first. I'll go right away." Zhou Qing was in a good mood.

"Mu..." Zhou Qing turned around and saw Mu Chen walking a long way off. He couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

He knew that Mu Chen didn't want to take up their time, so Zhou Qing turned and headed towards Qin Yu's palace.

"Uncle Zhou is really generous. It's just right for renovating Su Youwei's house."

Mu Chen looked at the genesis crystal card given by Zhou Qing. He had been living in Su Youwei's house, so of course, he had to pay some rent.

Five thousand genesis crystals is not a small amount for ordinary people.

If Su Youwei had so much money, she would have taken her grandfather to find treatment long ago.

"Mu Chen, show me that genesis beast soul crystal," Little Marten's anxious voice sounded, and it was evident that the genesis beast soul crystal was very attractive to him.

"Call me boss, and I'll give you the genesis beast soul crystal," Mu Chen said jokingly.

Little Marten was slightly stunned, and then he cursed, "Dream on, I will never call you Boss."

He is a celestial demon marten with pride, and he will never sell out his dignity for the genesis beast soul crystal.

"Let me introduce it to you. You know the name—it's called genesis beast soul crystal. After the genesis beast dies, the beast soul turns into this crystal stone, which plays a role in protecting the beast soul.

It is similar to the demon spirits in the Tianxuan Continent and is generally used to forge weapons."

Mu Chen tossed a light yellow, transparent crystal stone that had a shadow inside, forming the shape of a genesis beast and emitting a strange light.

Gulp~

Mu Chen heard the sound of swallowing saliva coming from the ancestral stone. It seemed that Little Marten really needed this.

He wanted this item for Little Marten; he couldn't use it now.

Although he didn't know how to restore Little Marten's body, he could restore some of his spirit.

However, it would definitely be satisfying to have the Little Marten call him boss; after all, the Little Marten was so proud.

"This genesis beast soul crystal is indeed similar to a demon spirit... gulp..." Little Marten really wanted to take a bite.

The ancestral stone has the function of nourishing the soul, but because of his self-destruction of his body, the state of his demon spirit is also very weak, and he needs something like the demon spirit to replenish it.

"Really? Just give me a shout, and these genesis beast soul crystals will be yours," Mu Chen seduced Little Marten with a very enticing tone.

"You can try one first. If it tastes good, I have more here."

Little Marten took a piece of the beast soul crystal in his hand, smelled it first, and then swallowed it in one gulp. Little Marten's eyes lit up immediately. It was obvious that the taste satisfied him, and his demon spirit also condensed a little.

However, a single genesis beast soul crystal had little effect, as these were produced after the death of a first-grade genesis source beast.

"Boss, give me a few more. It's not enough," the Little Marten exclaimed; it could indeed restore the weak demon spirit.

Comfortable!

Mu Chen nodded with satisfaction and gave more than thirty genesis beast soul crystals to Little Marten. The genesis beast soul crystal of this first-grade genesis beast was equivalent to that of a Yuan master in the Eight Great Meridians Awakening Realm when it was alive, and it was very easy to obtain.

Being able to have the Little Marten call him boss was an improvement.

Mu Chen knew that Little Marten was only shouting for the genesis beast soul crystal. If he wanted him to shout willingly, he had to impress Little Marten with his own strength.

Little Marten was eating the genesis beast soul crystal in the ancestral stone, thinking about something. He knew that Mu Chen wanted the genesis beast soul crystal for him, which made him feel much better about Mu Chen.

But he really didn't know how Mu Chen could make him his younger brother. He boasted before that he would be stronger than him in the future. If he could really do that, then it wouldn't be shameful to recognize Mu Chen as the boss.

"Little Marten, do you have any method to strengthen the body?" Mu Chen asked.

"Body-building? Yes, there are, but you can't use it now. It would be better to practice it after you have opened up the eight meridians and broken through to the Qi-nourishing realm," Little Marten said slowly while lying on the genesis beast soul crystal. This is just a snack; if he eats it too fast, he will have nothing to eat when he get greedy.

Mu Chen was quite ambitious. Strengthening the body is much more difficult than improving one's cultivation.

If it were someone else building multiple pathways at once, he would laugh at their greed, but this strange boy Mu Chen might actually be able to make it through.

But that's later. Now Mu Chen hasn't officially embarked on the path of cultivation. There's no need to start strengthening the body so early. The process of physical training is not gentle, and one must have the will to persevere.

Mu Chen nodded. He just asked casually and had no intention of practicing physical cultivation right now.

Among the eight ancestral symbols, there isn't much description of the Chaos Ancestral Symbol, which should relate to the physical body. The Chaos Lord once possessed an extremely strong physical body, and his main means of attack was the power of the physical body.

After being nourished by the spiritual fluid of the ancestral stone, Mu Chen's body had far surpassed that of others his age. His physical fitness should be almost the same as that of the genesis beast. He could begin to open his meridians, which is also the first step in cultivation.

After returning, Mu Chen gave the Qi-drawing technique to Su Youwei. The quality of the Qi-drawing technique was superior to that of the Great Zhou Academy. After all, it was taken from the royal treasury.

"Youwei, open your pulse as soon as possible, so that you won't be bothered by those people when we enter the Great Zhou Academy," Mu Chen said.

Although he didn't care too much about other people's criticism, Mu Chen didn't want to be disturbed.

"Well, Brother Chen, don't you need it?" Su Youwei asked.

"No need. Hey, I have other ways that are definitely not worse than this Qi-drawing technique," Mu Chen said with a smile.

"Okay, I understand." Su Youwei nodded. In order to help Mu Chen in the future, she practiced very seriously.
