Chapter 320 [Punishment]

Chen Yan was drinking.

The wine was fruit wine brewed by the Ghost Race in the White Elephant Tribe’s herd. Its taste was slightly sour with a hint of sweetness—speaking of mouthfeel, it was just average.

However, the fruit used to make the wine itself carried a trace of Primordial Qi, so this wine counted as spirit wine.

What left Chen Yan speechless was that the greatest effect of this spirit wine was said to be beneficial for the liver.

It could nourish and protect the liver!

Upon hearing this for the first time, Chen Yan almost thought he had misheard.

Drinking wine to protect the liver?

Why don’t you just say you’re Qin Shi Huang!

Chen Yan prepared to leave together with Zhan Li.

Zhan Li wanted to return to the Black Wood Tribe, and Chen Yan wanted to go to the Black Wood Tribe, so Zhan Li proactively suggested taking Chen Yan along.

Before leaving, the White Elephant Tribe’s herd, who were under punishment, flattered Zhan Li quite a bit and presented a large number of gifts.

This fruit wine was stocked up with a whole cart. Additionally, several big and small boxes were brought over.

Zhan Li casually opened a small wooden box, inside were two daggers—not metallic, seemingly like bone.

The color was white and the texture was delicate, slightly warm to the touch.

Chen Yan glanced at it, somewhat curious: "What are these two bone daggers for? As table knives?"

Zhan Li glanced at Chen Yan: "These are made of ivory—from the White Elephant."

Hearing this, Chen Yan solemnly paid his respects.

Although he didn’t know why the White Elephant was considered a sacred beast by the Ghost Race, it clearly had some extraordinary characteristics.

Zhan Li knew Chen Yan was puzzled and, after sighing, explained: "The White Elephant is just massive, and its strength is somewhat greater, but aside from that, it doesn’t have any special extraordinary abilities, appearing to differ from those Exotic Beasts.

But actually, the White Elephant is an ancient species; the ancestor once said that creatures from the same era as the White Elephant have mostly gone extinct by now.

This ancient species of White Elephant is favored by the Heavenly Dao, hence it continues to exist.

Among the Five Elements, the White Elephant is favored and protected by the Heavenly Dao, secretly aligning with the earth element within the Five Elements, with hidden earth power in its bloodline. Although it possesses no magical or supernatural abilities of its own, simply being close to it long-term improves one’s affinity with Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

Meanwhile, it can subtly infect people with the earth power contained in its bloodline. When comprehending the Heavenly Dao Rules, one gains better affinity with the earth element in the Five Elements, making it easier to perceive the earth attribute in the Five Elements.

Therefore, the White Elephant Tribe has, from ancient times, regarded the White Elephant as a sacred beast, breeding and herding the White Elephant. The tribe’s cultivators often follow the earth attribute path in the Five Elements after entering the way of cultivation.

Like Ju Shanfeng."

Chen Yan suddenly understood.

He recalled the intense battle with Ju Shanfeng at the time; that guy’s physique was mountain-like, his divine power was astounding, and his flesh was tough enough to leave one dumbfounded.

Finger Swords couldn’t pierce his skin, grenades couldn’t blast him, Rocket Pills couldn’t break his defense.

Using three Magical Artifacts barely managed to injure him.

The Magical Artifact attack shattered the Copper Seal, yet he could still withstand!

Gray, web-like glows even appeared on the ground, helping him deflect some attacks.

This, was likely the so-called power of the earth—earth element among the Five Elements!

Even so, he wasn’t killed; his body could still heal itself. It wasn’t until the mutated venom sacs of the Parasitic Spider were used to poison him that he was finally brought down.

This level of toughness, now thinking about it, is likely how the earth element among the Five Elements transforms a cultivator’s body to be this robust.

Cultivators who have comprehended the Heavenly Dao Power truly differ greatly from those who haven’t!

But...

"So, the ivory of this White Elephant presumably contains earth attribute power?"

"Of course! The ivory of the White Elephant is a recognized earth attribute spiritual material, and it’s classified as Upper Grade!"

Chen Yan instantly developed a strong interest.

Because in his Storage Equipment, the damaged substitute puppet had yet to be repaired. The missing materials happened to include some spiritual object materials with earth element attributes, although Upper Grade wasn’t required.

Chen Yan pondered for a moment, then looked at Zhan Li: "Cave Maiden, I suddenly recalled something. That shepherd Ju Shanfeng struck me with his palm when pursuing me..."

As he spoke, his eyes unabashedly locked onto the ivory dagger in Zhan Li’s hand.

Zhan Li’s eyes twitched slightly, glanced at the ivory dagger in his hand, sighed, and stuffed it into Chen Yan’s hand: "This thing is useless to me; consider it a gift for you to play with."

Chen Yan calmly accepted it, quickly storing it in his Storage Jade Pendant, smiled and said: "I remembered, that palm attack missed; it didn’t hit me."

He said this, his expression unchanged, with a calm demeanor, and opened another box.

Zhan Li glanced at it and commented casually: "These are some jars of flower honey. The White Elephant’s dung can nourish the soil, making it particularly suitable for cultivating a type of spiritual plant called Orchid Heart Flower. The honey from these Orchid Heart Flowers is one of the specialties of the White Elephant Race."

Chen Yan nodded, leaned over to sniff, and indeed noticed a faintly sweet fragrance: "What is its effect?"

"It can repair various hidden injuries and hidden dangers, rejuvenating the flesh—those of us on the cultivation path, especially at the beginning, many people single-mindedly pursue bravery and diligence, but the process actually leaves a lot of hidden injuries and hidden dangers in the body. Initially, these issues may seem inconspicuous, but over time, they accumulate into deep-rooted problems that can no longer be remedied.

They also impact one’s cultivation path—not just for body cultivators, even those who follow the Primordial Spirit route, in their later stages, are to some extent influenced by the strength of their body. An abundance of hidden injuries and dangers within the body diminishes a cultivator’s eventual cultivation potential ceiling.
