55: Treatment methods
Just from the names, Chu Mu could determine which one each referred to.
Chu Mu first looked at the information for the frail little snake, wanting to know if there was a way to save it within the "Nameless Book".
[Name: Wood Spirit Crystal Pattern Python; Rank: Mortal Rank Low Tier; Aptitude: Inferior; Status: Newborn, Frail, Bloodline conflict is causing physical collapse (Consume 35 Source Spirit to view solution); Attribute Affinity: Wood, Crystal; Skills: 1. Wood Spirit: Resonates with surrounding wood-attribute plants, blending its aura with them, making it difficult for other targets to detect it. 2. Shattering Crystal Blade: Condenses crystal into sharp blades in the Void Realm to ambush and kill targets. 3. Jade Crystal Transformation: Transforms its body into a jade crystal state; in this state, it cannot move, but its aura is reduced to an extremely weak level, and its defensive capabilities are greatly enhanced. 4. Crystal Wood: Transforms plants into jade crystal, allowing it to temporarily borrow the plant's abilities.]
Aside from Ordinary, it turned out there was an even worse Inferior Aptitude; Chu Mu felt he had learned something new.
Moreover, just viewing the solution required 35 Source Spirit, which was not a low cost.
Chu Mu looked at the Source Spirit balance on the "Nameless Book", 105 points; spending a little for this Different Rank Species little python in front of him was nothing.
Thinking this, the Source Spirit balance became 70 points, and the corresponding solution appeared.
[Powder ground from Thousand-Silk Jade and the juice of Green Grain Wood leaves, taken daily; after one month, the stubborn ailment of the body can be removed.]
Chu Mu didn't know much about the value of these two spiritual Materials, "Thousand-Silk Jade" and "Green Grain Wood", but since the solution was found, whether to use it or not would be up to Chu Jingyu to decide.
Chu Mu looked at the information for the frail little snake's older brother and sister; Chu Mu didn't look closely, naturally assuming the blue-gray one was the brother and the pink-white one was the sister.
[Name: Green Forest Giant Python; Rank: Mortal Rank Low Tier; Aptitude: One in a Hundred; Status: Newborn, excited to explore the world; Attribute Affinity: Wood; Skills: 1. Vine Overgrowth: Manipulates wood-attribute energy to condense tough vines that can be controlled to fight enemies. 2. Giant Strength: The Green Forest Giant Python's body is strengthened, allowing it to unleash even more terrifying power. 3. Myriad Leaf Blades: Commands flying leaves to transform into thousands of blades, launching continuous attacks on the target.]
After reading the information on this "Green Forest Giant Python", Chu Mu stroked his chin and thought that the Aptitude of each Source Beast is compared with Source Beasts of the same species; the Aptitude of Source Beasts between different species is not comparable.
For example, even an ant with peerless Aptitude is still no match for a Dragon with Inferior Aptitude.
Therefore, the "Wood Spirit Crystal Pattern Python" with only Inferior Aptitude has four skills, while the "Green Forest Giant Python" with One-in-a-Hundred Aptitude only has three skills at the same Realm.
Thinking this through, Chu Mu's gaze fell on the little snake curled up in the eggshell; it seemed its species was more rare and powerful.
Hopefully, after giving the method to Chu Jingyu, they can find the Materials to save it; it would be a pity if it died so young.
Chu Mu looked at the information for the "Pink Rock Crystal Python", which appeared pink-white and looked much cuter and prettier.
[Name: Pink Rock Crystal Python; Rank: Mortal Rank Low Tier; Aptitude: One in a Hundred; Status: Newborn, energetic; Attribute Affinity: Earth, Jade Crystal; Skills: 1. Jade Crystal Transformation: ... 2. Crystal Shield: Condenses crystal into a scale-like shield. 3. Jade Crystal Scale Pillar: Gathers energy in its mouth, then spits out a highly impactful jade crystal pillar to strike the target.]
Chu Mu shook his head in boredom; looking back and forth, the abilities these Mortal Rank Source Beasts possessed were just those few things—either shields, blades, or spikes; it all seemed completely unoriginal.
However, in an instant, Chu Mu felt relieved; this was just the lowest level in the entire Source Beast world, so how could there be too many overly special abilities?
As for Source Beasts like snakes, Chu Mu didn't really like them at the moment, so he quickly sent them back out.
In the Main Hall of the Chu family compound, the vortex channel appeared again, and the three snakes were gently placed on the ground, accompanied by Chu Mu's voice:
"The powder ground from Thousand-Silk Jade mixed with the juice of Green Grain Wood leaves can allow that little snake to recover to a healthy state."
Hearing this, a look of joy appeared on Chu Jingyu's face; Ancestor Chu indeed had a method for treatment.
"Many thanks, Ancestor Chu."
After thanking Ancestor Chu, Chu Jingyu caught the blue-gray and pink-white snakes that wanted to explore the room; as for the one in the eggshell, he gently placed it on the table, as it looked too wilted to be running around.
Just then, a nervous shout came from outside, "Grandpa, why are the snake eggs in the wooden basin gone?"
It turned out to be Chu Shengyuan, who had woken up early; seeing that the snake eggs were no longer in the wooden basin, he was anxiously looking for his grandpa.
Chu Jingyu smiled slightly, "Come into the Main Hall; are they here?"
A small, slightly chubby figure quickly rushed into the Main Hall, "Where? Where?"
Chu Jingyu showed his palm to the rushing-in Chu Shengyuan; the two young snakes, whose necks were restrained by him, were struggling vigorously.
With an exclamation, Chu Shengyuan arrived in front of Chu Jingyu, looking intently at Chu Jingyu's hands, checking the two snakes left and right, then pouted, "Grandpa, these are too small; they aren't fierce at all."
Indeed, the newborn little snakes were only as thick as Chu Jingyu's thumb, and their length was only from the tip of his middle finger to a little below his wrist; they indeed did not look fierce enough.
Chu Jingyu explained with a chuckle, "Don't look at them being so small now; as long as you provide them with food, it won't be long before our house won't be able to hold them."
Chu Shengyuan believed Chu Jingyu's words completely, so he nodded, then looked between the two little snakes, clutching Chu Jingyu's arm and asking somewhat confusedly, "Grandpa, why are there only two?"
Chu Jingyu pointed his chin at the table, "That one is over there; it has some Innate deficiencies and needs some medicine bought from town to nourish it."
Chu Shengyuan leaned over the table, peering through the gap to look inside, and discovered that there was indeed a smaller little snake lying inside, looking sickly.
He gently touched the eggshell and said with some sympathy, "It's so pitiful."
Chu Jingyu placed the two little snakes on the table and patted his grandson's shoulder, "Xiao Yuan, which of these two little snakes do you like more?"
To Chu Jingyu's question, Chu Shengyuan answered without hesitation, "Of course, it's the green one."
"Good, go call the others over; I will watch you sign the contract and let Xiao Yuan become a Contract Master, how about that?"
