704: Chapter 004 Tragic White Tiger (2) 704: Chapter 004 Tragic White Tiger (2) Chapter 004
It was merely puzzled by the human who had suddenly appeared in the sky!
It clearly saw Mo Jiuli pop up out of nowhere above, and judging by her reaction, she didn’t have any idea what was going on either.
Before she could react, she crashed onto it, which was one of the most frustrating things for it.
Seeing oneself about to be hit and being unable to dodge was truly a tragically hapless situation…
“Where did you come from?” the White Tiger asked, speaking human language.
It was only then that Mo Jiuli realized the true strength of this White Tiger: it had reached the peak of the Holy Beasts and was just a step away from a breakthrough to become a Divine Beast!
However, her gaze drifted to the bulge on its chest, and she couldn’t help but be somewhat puzzled…
“I’ve just ascended from another continent!” Mo Jiuli said without concealment, perhaps because the other was a beast, she wasn’t as guarded.
“Ascended?
You’re from the Underworld?” the White Tiger asked with some surprise.
“Mm, sort of!” Mo Jiuli nodded.
In truth, she didn’t think of the Lingtian Continent as the Underworld—despite it perhaps not having as many cultivation resources as this place, it didn’t mean it was lacking, and thus undeserving of being looked down upon!
She didn’t like this feeling.
“I see, you may go!” the White Tiger said, upon detecting Mo Jiuli’s sincere attitude.
It knew she wasn’t lying, and the point of ascension from the Underworld was always random, which could also explain why she had suddenly appeared and crashed into it.
With the reason understood, the White Tiger had no intention of making things difficult for Mo Jiuli, so it let her leave!
However, Mo Jiuli didn’t leave immediately but frowned and asked the White Tiger in front of her, “Have you been poisoned?”
“How do you know?” the White Tiger, upon hearing this, was taken aback.
It didn’t even know if it had been poisoned.
It had simply stumbled upon a Spiritual Fruit and consumed it, only to end up in its current state afterward.
Therefore, it suspected that the Spiritual Fruit it had eaten might have been poisonous!
Mo Jiuli didn’t speak, her gaze fixed on the area between its two front limbs, her eyes clearly revealing that she had seen something.
“I didn’t know if it was poison.
I just stumbled upon a Purple Fruit that smelled really good and ate it.
A few days later, I ended up like this…” the White Tiger recounted its experience, its tone filled with helplessness and despair.
“That’s how it is.
The fruit you consumed wasn’t poisonous—it was a Purple Spirit Fruit.
Purple Spirit Fruits are not meant for Spiritual Beasts to consume directly.
If a Spiritual Beast wishes to ingest it, it must first be refined into an elixir.
Otherwise, it will eventually lead to a violent death…” Mo Jiuli explained after hearing the White Tiger’s story.
“Are you an Alchemist?” the White Tiger exclaimed in surprise.
“Yes, I am!
If you trust me, I can neutralize the effects of the Purple Spirit Fruit for you as compensation for crashing into you when I fell!” Mo Jiuli offered after a moment of thought.
“Okay, I believe you!” the White Tiger stared intently at Mo Jiuli for a long time before finally nodding in agreement.
Like the rest of the Beast Clan, it did not like humans.
After all, there had always been discord between humans and their Beast Clan as humans only liked to capture them for use as tools.
As a result, the Spiritual Beasts of the Haotian Continent greatly detested humans…
However, it could sense the goodwill from Mo Jiuli, and there was an aura about her that it felt drawn to, preventing it from feeling any aversion.
This was why it agreed…
Mo Jiuli walked over and directly took out an Elixir, stuffing it into the White Tiger’s mouth.
The White Tiger hadn’t even tasted it when the Elixir dissolved and was absorbed…
As the Elixir melted upon entering his mouth, it also felt a gentle power flow into its body, slowly surging towards the area at the front of its chest…
