Chapter 572 Lacking a Good Armor
Divine Beast Adventures
Edited by Aelryinth
Seeing the rainbow spiritual fruit on the table, Huang Juyun thought to himself, -Looks like Zhang Che that brat isnât the only one with ridiculous luck. Our Lanlan isnât any worse!-
In the past, although Zhang Che would always bring back shocking rewards from the beast world, it had never been something this astonishing.
However, the last time he had only stayed in the beast world for a few days with their precious Lanlan, and they brought back pieces of spiritual crystals, their value immeasurable.
This time wasnât any worse, either!
Although Huang Juyun had no idea exactly what herb this spiritual fruit was, he was in charge of the Huang familyâs herbal research institute. He was a great authority in judging the grades of spiritual herbs.
Taking into account the delicate fragrance and the color of the spiritual fruit, he was sure the fruitâs grade was extremely high. He had never seen a spiritual herb of this grade in his life before.
\"Daddy, do you know what this spiritual fruit is?\" Huang Tielan hurriedly asked when she saw the astonishment on Huang Juyunâs face.
Although she and Zhang Che knew this thing wasnât simple, given their knowledge, they simply had no idea exactly what this fruit was.
Huang Juyun stared at the rainbow spiritual fruit once more at her questioning. After some time, he shook his head slightly, saying, \"I donât know. I have never seen this kind of spiritual fruit in the information database of any spiritual herbs. But, Iâm sure that this is definitely the highest grade of all of the spiritual herbs I have ever seen.
\"You said there was an epic-quality exotic beast guarding this herb when you found it. So, we can be sure that it had an extremely high chance of advancing to divine-quality if it consumed this spiritual fruit!\"
\"What? Itâs actually that amazing!?\" Huang Tielanâs mouth went wide from shock when she heard that. The exotic beast meat she had just stuffed into her mouth even fell out.
It was actually able to let an epic-quality exotic beast advance to divine-quality! Although it only granted a chance, the efficacy of the rainbow spiritual fruit was already extremely shocking.
\"Then, Uncle Huang, if we can use this spiritual fruit as the main ingredient and pair it with some other spiritual herbs, wouldnât we be able to concoct pills with incredible efficacy?\"
Zhang Che immediately realized the worth of this spiritual fruit. Letting his subdued beasts or pets directly consume them would be the most primitive method of using the fruit.
After all, success wasnât guaranteed. If the beast failed to advance, they would have completely wasted the efficacy of the spiritual fruit.
Facing such an invaluable spiritual herb, they couldnât afford the tiniest risk!
Huang Juyun cast a glance at Zhang Che in admiration. He nodded, saying, \"Thatâs right, but before that we have to study and understand the attributes of this spiritual fruit first. Only then can we use it in the concoction of pills.
\"How about this? Since the matters in Bei Du are pretty much done, weâll head to Xinjing tomorrow and let the herbal research institute staff immediately start researching and experimenting on the fruit. If everything goes well, I estimate weâll find out everything about the fruitâs attributes in a month at the most.\"
The three started looking forward to this.
If they succeeded in concocting pills with the rainbow spiritual fruit as the main ingredient, no matter if the end product was meant for beasts or beastmasters, itâd have incredible effects in raising the Huang familyâs strength!
Sighing, Zhang Che suddenly thought of another matter. He quickly took out the spiritual fruitâs base plant from his spatial storage and said, \"Oh, right, Uncle Huang. This is the spiritual fruitâs plant. It didnât wither away when it bore the rainbow fruit, so I dug it out and brought it back to see if we can grow it when we return to the herbal field. Itâll be incredibly beneficial to us if we can reproduce this kind of spiritual fruit.\"
However, Huang Juyun shook his head slightly when he heard that. He said, \"Itâs not so simple. Even if heavenly treasures like this didnât wither away immediately after bearing fruit, all of its essence will have been transferred into the fruit. Even if we can keep it alive and regrow it, Iâm afraid it would be very difficult for it to bear fruit again.
\"But, that is not a certainty. We have spiritual crystals, after all. Those things are the best tonics for spiritual herbs. Perhaps they might really be able to make this spiritual herb bear fruit again.\"
After a short pause, Huang Juyun showed a hint of hope and continued, \"When we arrive at Xinjing tomorrow, weâll immediately transplant this spiritual herb onto the largest spiritual crystal. Whether itâll bloom and bear fruit in the end will depend on fate.\"

That night, Zhang Che didnât stay at the Huang familyâs ancestral house. He was afraid he couldnât endure it and would sneak into Huang Tielanâs room. Itâd be bad if his father-in-law learned of that. After all, they werenât married.
Since that was so, he decided to return home, in case he couldnât resist the temptation.

The next day, Zhang Che piloted Dijiang-hao and headed straight to Jingzhou with Huang Juyun.
They couldnât delay the matter regarding the spiritual fruit for even a moment. It was better the earlier they started research on it.
As for Huang Tielan, it was already the school holidays since she had taken such a long absence. She needed to get back to take a make-up exam, and thus didnât follow Zhang Che and Huang Juyun to Xinjing.
She was extremely unwilling about that. Theywere right in their honeymoon period. They didnât want to be apart for even a moment, not to mention they wouldnât be able to meet one another for the next few days.
However, she didnât dare to show anything in front of her dad, and went to Bei Du University quietly.
---
On the way to Jingzhou Island, Zhang Che chatted with his father-in-law from time to time, recounting the rewards he had gained on his trip to the beast world.
Speaking of which, it was truly a bountiful trip. First, Huang Tielan advanced to Tier Six beastmaster as she had wished, achieving her goal. Second, they also found her a mid-tier legend-quality weapon. It was extremely helpful in increasing her fighting strength.
Last but not least, they were unexpected surprises. The epic-quality subdued beast could no longer be considered a huge surprise. The rainbow spiritual fruit, however, left him unusually excited.
Even so, Zhang Che didnât feel like there were no regrets on this trip. Exactly why was that?
After pondering for a while with a furrowed brow, he suddenly realized he didnât obtain a decent armor-type beast card, despite killing so many exotic beasts.
At present, Huang Tielanâs defensive equipment was still the Maneater Leech King leather armor from way back. Although it wasnât bad, it didnât match her current strength.
\"Looks like I have to think of a way to help get her a good beast card armor, though the Seven Star Silver Beetle armor I put aside previously is barely suitable for her now. It had fulfilled the time requirement for upgrading, but because of its low level, could not do so.
\"Hmm, when Iâm done with the matters on this side in a few days, Iâll immediately prepare things for concocting cultivation fluid for the Seven Star Silver Beetle when I return to Bei Du. That way, Tielan will immediately have a mid-tier legend-quality beast card armor.\"
Of course, this could only be considered as transition equipment.
Given Zhang Cheâs standards, he had to get Huang Tielan an epic-quality beast card armor! Legend-quality stuff couldnât really enter his eyes now...
