Chapter 16 - Searching for Spiritual Place

The wolf king stood up, wobbly, and looked at Xi Chen with its fierce.

Suddenly, it's eyes turned bright red.

Berserk..

The aura of the wolf king changed from heavy to uncontrollably fierce. The aura spread all over around it.

"Berserk..." seeing the changes on the wolf king, Xi Chen eyes turned serious. He was not playing around anymore.

The wolf lunges at Xi Chen, trying to bite him with his powerful jaw.

Xi Chen did not waited to be bitten. He side stepped and ....

Boom....

Punched at wolf's neck.

Aaowooo.....whimpers...

The punch broke the wolf's neck and also sent it flying.

And it also hit the same boulder, the two earlier wolves hit.

Even though it did not kill him instantly, it made the wolf too injured to stand.

It lay on top of the body of the two wolves. It whimpers softly. And it's eyes also turned back to normal slowly.

Xi Chen approached near the wolf king. The whimpers did not made him show any sympathy for the wolves. He slammed his foot on the face of the wolf king, killing him instantly.

He did not feel any remorse for them. It's the law of survival. You want to kill me, I want to kill you. Same thing.

After Xi Chen killed all those wolves, his siblings approached him.

"Wow big bro, I thought you can only enlarged your hands. I did not know that you can grow your whole body. It's too cool." Xi Xuan instantly started blabbering about the whole situation.

Seeing him blabbering non-stop, Xi Chen put up hand and went. "OK stop it. We need to clean this place and take the good thing, before other beasts show up."

"What about the wolves den?. There must be other wolves there too." Xi Bing asked.

"Don't worry about them. Without their king and the hunters, they will leave that place to join other groups. No need to clean up that place." Xi Chen answered as he started cleaning up the place.

Both Xi Xuan and Xi Bing joined him.

"This place is not hidden and safe anymore.We should leave this place too and find another cave or some place." Xi Chen expressed his thoughts as he saw the bloods all over the place. And the place was fill with bloody smell.

The trio quickly took the goods and left.

Sometimes after they left, many groups of carnivores beasts appeared on the site.

--------

Time went on as it has already been 1 year after the wolves incident.

Early as 1 and a half months ago, Xi Chen reached the peak of the Organ Strengthening Realm.

And since then, the Xi trio bothers has been searching for a place that are full of spiritual essence to breakthrough to Acquired Qi Realm.

They have been searching for more than a year. But they could not find even a single clue or lead, where a spiritual place is.

But they did not gave up their hopes. And Xi Chen does not feel the slightest disappointment. He had already been waiting in this world for more than 19 years. He can wait for some more.

But of course, he also wanted to find it as soon as possible. And he wanted to go home.

Now, the Xi trio brothers have been in this part of the forest for more than 2 years.

Their house might have already been sold to someone, if they delay for another 1 year.

-----

One day.

Xi Chen and his two younger brothers were walking along a grass grown dirt trail.

That way, they were going is the last direction they have not yet searched for.

And if they can not find a spiritual in that direction, then they are going to get home.

As they kept walking, they reached a clearing.

The clearing was right under a cliff, with dense creeper plants hanging on the cliff face.

"Hhhh... another death end." Xi Xuan sighed with his head low.

Xi Chen also looked down a little bit.

Only Xi Bing kept staring at the dense creeper plants on the cliff face.

Both Xi Chen and Xi Xuan turned around to leave.

At that moment, Xi Bing suddenly spoke up. "Big Brother, there seems to be something behind that bunch of leave plants." Pointing at the side of the cliff.

Xi Chen turned around with a puzzle look.

He walked up to the creepers and put his hand on them.

At first he did not feel anything, but then pushed his hand forward. Instantly it goes right through the leaves.

Essence of spiritual energy suddenly hit Xi Chen's face. Then his face lit up. "There is likely a spiritual place inside this cliff. Come on."

Xi Chen went straight in. Xi Xuan and Xi Bing followed him shortly.

Behind the leaves, hanging on the cliff face, was a natural tunnel.

The trio ran through the tunnel, towards a light they saw ahead.

When they reached the end of the tunnel, a little bit large cave appeared. And the cave was filled with green grasses and a tree in the middle of the clearing of the cave.

They were surprised to see environment inside the cave.

But instantly their focus was on the tree. More specifically, on the single fruit of the tree.

It was not because it was the only fruit. Because it was the source of the light, inside the cave.

It was light blue in color, with 2 red stripes on it.

The essence was emitting from that fruit.

So Xi Chen immediately used his innate ability.

"Haha.. finally a spiritual treasure." Seeing the information, Xi Chen laughed out loud. And he continued. "You two, guard the doorway. I will be reaching Acquired Qi Realm today."

Xi Xuan and Xi Bing both nodded with a happy smile on their face. Then they left the cave.

"Acquired Realm, here I come." Xi Chen muttered to himself and jumped up to pluck the fruit.
