"Do you think those two humans are still alive?"

"You still want to survive after entering there? You've probably already entered the chief's belly by now."

"I think the chief will keep him for two more days. After all, it's rare for a human to come to his door."

"Hahaha, that makes sense, I think... the chief is out!"

…

Outside the chief's palace, a group of strange beasts were gathered around to discuss the fate of the two humans who had just been taken down by the sacrifice. After all, this was the first time that a human had come here alone, so the story spread from one to ten.

, it soon spread among the tribe.

Now that they saw the chief coming out, they were about to disperse, but found that the two humans had also come up with the chief.

"Still alive!?"

Countless strange beasts shouted softly, and this result was something none of them expected.

"I know, the chief is definitely going to take them out and eat them in front of us."

"No, no, no! I think the chief wants to raise this human for fun."

"It makes sense. Humans also like to do this. What can such a small body do?"

…

Just when a group of strange beasts were discussing what kind of work Jiang Beiran's small body could do, they saw that the chief had already led the two humans towards the holy spring.

After the various beasts looked at each other in confusion for a while, they followed him one after another, wanting to see what the chief planned to do with this human being.

Along the way, Jiang Beiran followed Yaozhu to a spring.

Standing in front of the spring, Yaozhu turned around and said to Jiang Beiran: "This is the holy spring of our clan. Everyone comes here to drink water when they are injured. After drinking, the body will feel much better."

'Is it a spring that can heal injuries...'

Jiang Beiran squatted down and used his mental power to sense the spring water, and found that it was indeed full of spiritual energy, and it seemed that it was not just as simple as sufficient spiritual energy...

"Can I have a taste?" Jiang Beiran looked up at Yaozhu and asked.

"Please."

With Yaozhu's consent, Jiang Beiran stretched out his hand and poured a handful of holy water into his mouth.

‘What the hell!?’

Jiang Beiran was shocked. As soon as he entered the holy spring, he noticed something was wrong, because he discovered that there was some kind of spring water here...it was clearly spiritual energy!

As the most critical, basic, priority and indispensable part of Xuanlong Continent, the importance of aura is self-evident.

Whether it is setting up formations or refining elixirs, refining weapons or making jade slips, everything is inseparable from the use of spiritual energy.

Therefore, Jiang Beiran has conducted in-depth research on Reiki many times a long time ago and reached his own conclusions.

Reiki is a "substance" that possesses special energy that is beneficial to life activities.

So since it is matter, it has weight, but its mass is extremely small.

In addition, when it has energy, aura can be used as a power source, can be converted through formations, realize many functions, and can be used in many places.

For example, driving magic weapons, driving shuttles, refining elixirs, etc.

It's very similar to the use of "electricity".

After initially understanding the essence of aura, Jiang Beiran conducted a series of experiments on it and obtained many results.

For example, reversing injuries, dispersing naturally, opening spiritual wisdom, transformation and optimization, etc.

It can be said that they are all benefits.

In addition to these, Jiang Beiran also came up with an experimental result, that is, the spiritual energy has "homogeneous repulsion". Simply put, they will not come together. Even in places with a high concentration of spiritual energy, they will not "crowd into a ball".

”.

Unless some unnatural means are taken.

For example, compressing spiritual energy into spiritual stones will cause them to be highly condensed together.

But Jiang Beiran found it amazing that the spring water in front of him violated the "homogeneous repulsion" in its natural state.

"Did it appear on its own?" Jiang Beiran looked at Yaozhu and asked.

Shaking his head, Yaozhu replied: "This is the oldest holy spring in the entire Four Holy Lands. No one knows when it appeared."

'This place is indeed as good as I imagined.'

Before entering the ancient ruins, Jiang Beiran had thought that there must be countless benefits here, otherwise it would not be possible to breed so many powerful beasts.

Unexpectedly, we had just arrived at the first stop and got off to a good start.

Although he still doesn't know whether the essence of this holy spring is a spiritual energy that violates the "homogeneous repulsion force", but just judging from its performance, Jiang Beiran can think of many places where it can be used.

For example, if you use this holy spring to make wine, the fermentation time will be greatly shortened, and the effect will be far better than ordinary spiritual wine.

In addition, if this kind of holy spring is used to quench the stone, the hardness of the magic weapon produced will inevitably be improved to a higher level. Not only can the impurities in the ore be removed, but it can even be optimized.

Just thinking about it casually, Jiang Beiran thought of the countless benefits of this holy spring. If he was given more time to study these spiritual energies, they would surely be able to exert greater effects.

While Jiang Beiran was thinking about what this holy spring could be used for, the strange beasts following him almost had their eyes popped out.

"Then...that human drank from the holy spring!?"

"How is this possible!? Except when someone is seriously injured, the chief strictly prohibits drinking holy water secretly."

"Is the chief planning to fatten up this human before killing him?"

"This...that's all I can think about."

Although this reason is somewhat nonsense, they really can't think of any other reason that is enough to support the chief to let a human drink their holy water.

Reaching out and stirring the holy spring, Jiang Beiran asked, "Besides using it to heal wounds, what else have you used it for?"

"No more." Yaozhu shook his head.

'It is indeed a waste of natural resources.'

It can be said that drinking this holy spring directly is the most wasteful behavior. The effect of just refining it will be far better than drinking it directly.

"What a waste. This holy spring can be a very good material. I can use it to brew a jar of spiritual wine for you to try. If you think the effect is good, we can cooperate to develop it."

"Spiritual wine? Development?"

Yaozhu, who didn't understand these two terms, asked directly.

"Oh, spiritual wine is similar to elixirs. Drinking it can heal your wounds, and it can also strengthen your cultivation and physique. As for development...it is to use these holy springs to make various similar

The good things about elixirs can help you and your beasts in all aspects."

Yaozhu, who had just seen the effect of the elixir, thought for a moment and replied: "If that spiritual wine is as good as you said, then I can't consider it."

"Okay, then it's settled." Jiang Beiran stood up and said.

The moment Yaozhu agreed, Jiang Beiran had already thought about how to plan this holy spring.

'Build a training room here, and build a weapon refining room and an alchemy room over there, um...'

Thinking of this, Jiang Beiran suddenly asked again: "Can I go down and take a look?"

Yaozhu hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, but I have to go down with you."

"certainly."

After Jiang Beiran said that, he asked Shi Fenglan to wait here, and followed Yongzhu into the holy spring.

"Huh!!!!?"

When they saw the human jumping into the holy spring with the chief, all the alien beasts could no longer suppress the shock in their hearts and shouted loudly, completely confused as to what the chief was going to do.

Sneaking into the holy spring, Jiang Beiran quickly locked the location of the spring and swam towards it.

Arriving at the spring, Jiang Beiran used his mental power to examine the bottom again and found that the holy spring was the same as spring water.

They are all natural outcrops of groundwater.

It is an absolute treasure.

But just when Jiang Beiran was about to search further down the spring, the system suddenly popped up a prompt.

[Option 1: Continue to explore. Completion reward: Haotian Secret Array Map (earth level top grade)]

[Option 2: Leave the Holy Spring. Completion reward: Random basic attribute point +1]

‘What the hell!? Is it so dangerous down there!?’

Jiang Beiran, who was shocked, directly chose number two, pointed at the tree, and began to swim back.

Swimming ashore as fast as he could, Jiang Beiran found that he really didn't have a drop of "water" on his body.

[Optional mission completed, reward: Spirit +1]

'I don't know what is hidden down there that is so dangerous...'

Jiang Beiran originally wanted to go under the spring to find out where this special and rich spiritual energy came from, or how it was born.
