Chapter 76 - 77: Soul Eyes — Formless Yet Perceivable
Zhou Sichen tilted his head slightly and opened his mouth.
Under the control of the Fragrant Silk Beauty Immortal Herb, the herbal plant drifted slowly toward him. Tilting gently, the dew-like droplets resting on its leaves poured into his mouth.
A sweet, cooling sensation flowed down his throat, and in the next instant, a refreshing fragrance surged through every corner of his body, washing over him like a pure spring breeze.
The Longing Dewdrop—having released its essence—began to wither rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it crumbled into fine dust, leaving behind only a few tiny seed-like grains.
A flash of violet light followed, as the Fragrant Silk Beauty shot those seeds off into the distance.
Zhou Sichen didn't need to ask—this was clearly her way of replanting the Longing Dewdrop, ensuring it would grow again in the future.
Judging by the practiced motion, this certainly wasn't her first time doing this.
The Icefire Yin Yang Well had so many immortal herbs, but only a few possessed sentience. Could it be that they consumed each other, grew stronger, and then replanted their companions?
An endless cycle of death and rebirth, a sustainable ecosystem of immortals?
It wasn't an impossible theory...
Zhou Sichen pulled back his gaze and sat down cross-legged to refine the medicinal essence.
