Rabbit Must Die-Chapter 175 - 174 Brother, Donโt Run!_1
Qin Shou leaned in with effort, his mouth slightly opening wider and wider, mumbling to himself, "Bro, donโt run, let me taste this..."
At the same time, Qin Shou activated the Cultivation Technique within his body, constantly adjusting his state... ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ฐ๐๐๐ง๐๐๐ฒ๐ฅ.๐๐๐
Gradually getting closer, he bit down on it...
The next moment, the entire broken chain seemed to be activated, and Qin Shou saw the rune he bit into suddenly emit endless light, dazzling his eyes and causing a stabbing pain, followed by a surge of tremendous force!
With a bang!
It nearly blew Qin Shouโs mouth open!
But as they say, people die for wealth as birds die for food; having already bitten down, how could he spit it out?
Qin Shou desperately clung on, while being blown away, his head throbbing painfully, before he suddenly woke up with a start!
Then he was dumbfounded, standing still in a daze, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, drooling...
"Yuโer... Yuโer? Donโt scare me, whatโs wrong with you? Why suddenly groaning and laughing like an idiot, and even drooling? You didnโt really turn stupid, did you? Poor Yuโer, and poor me, the only family I have has become like this... What if you canโt eat or control your bowel movements anymore in the future? Itโs going to be so hard to take care of..." Changโe muttered beside his ear.
Startled by this, Qin Shou gave Changโe a white glare and said, "Silly girl, what nonsense are you spouting? I am smart as ever!"
"Hmm, if you can make such a shameless remark, youโre probably not stupid, and thatโs good." Changโe pinched Qin Shouโs chubby cheek, breathing a sigh of relief.
"Yuโer, what were you doing just now?" Changโe asked with concern, sitting beside him.
Qin Shou replied, "Cultivating."
"Cultivating what?" Changโe asked curiously.
Qin Shou answered, "Cultivating the technique to survive, what else?"
Knowing Qin Shou all too well, Changโe sensed something fishy when she saw the sly look in his eyes, and moved in to ask, "Youโre not cultivating any forbidden magic, are you?"
Qin Shou grinned, his eyes darting around...
"Donโt lie, tell me the truth. Tell me the reason why youโre cultivating, Iโm listening," Changโe said sternly.
Seeing this, Qin Shou knew he couldnโt lie anymore, so he shared his thoughts. He had to cultivate, to stay alive, he had to make his cells shut up.
And the way to make cells shut up involved cause and effect; to get cause and effect, one needed deeds...
But one wrong deed, and he might just kick the bucket ahead of time.
Small deeds, they seemed insufficient to solve problems whenever and wherever needed.
But forbidden magic was different; with it, he could provoke cause and effect at will, control his cells, control his own life and death.
Hearing this, Changโe frowned and said, "Yuโer, we can now enter and leave the Heavenly Court. If you run out of Yuan Qi, you can go there and find some things to eat and replenish it. I will also try hard to cultivate, and once I have the ability, make a lot of Spirit Crystals, then I can support you. Iโm afraid there are dangers with you cultivating forbidden magic."
Qin Shou shook his head and said, "Itโs not that simple, Iโm well aware of my own body. Just eating Yuan Qi is only a temporary fix; it canโt cure my condition.
The speed at which my cells swallow Yuan Qi is increasing, but because of my strength, my ability to absorb Yuan Qi is fixed.
Even if I could compensate by eating, given my current appetite, how many Divine Wood Valleys do you think there are for me to eat?"
Hearing this, Changโe was rendered speechless; she had already witnessed the scene in which Divine Wood Valley was eaten, leaving a firebreak behind.
That kind of eating habit, even the Divine Wood Valley probably couldnโt afford to keep this rabbit!
Master Lu released the rabbit back, probably because he was scared off by its appetite. If he kept letting the rabbit stay in the mountains overnight, he might wake up one day to find the Divine Wood Valley turned into a pile of disorderly rocks.
Not eating in Divine Wood Valley, but elsewhere, other immortals might get angry, and they may not be as easy to talk to as Master Lu.
So, indeed, this is a problem.
Qin Shou continued, "So, after a lot of thinking, the best solution is to raise my own cultivation base. If I can match the rate at which I absorb Yuan Qi from the world around me with the rate itโs consumed, then that would be the most foolproof way to save my life. But whether itโs cultivation or extending life, I need my cells to shut up at the critical moment!
Thereโs nothing more effective than forbidden magic for that. Besides, Iโm not touching the profound mysteries of the Great Dao. Iโm just playing with small tricks like turning stone into gold, which shouldnโt get me into too much trouble, right?"
Hearing this, Changโe nodded and said, "Alright, then how did your recent cultivation turn out?"
As soon as they began discussing the results, Qin Shou started to grin foolishly again.
Seeing this, Changโeโs curiosity was piqued even more. She grabbed Qin Shouโs chubby face and demanded, "Spill it, no beating around the bush!"
Qin Shou burst out laughing, "With one bite, I took a chunk out of the Heavenly Dao! Seriously freaking cool, haha..."
Upon hearing this, Changโeโs mouth gaped open in disbelief, gasping, "You bit off a piece of the Heavenly Dao?"
Qin Shou laughed proudly, "Yes, though I only bit off one rune, it contained a vast amount of information, enough to keep me digesting for a while. I wonโt be cultivating for the time being; if I keep biting it, I might not get a second chance if they start to notice me."
Changโe stood in shock, "My heavens, you bit off a rune from the Heavenly Dao?"
With that, Changโe walked around Qin Shou three times from the front, then turned around and did another three circles...
Seeing this, Qin Shou said in an exasperated voice, "Silly girl, the way youโre going on about it, you look just like a dog inspecting its bed before sleep, exactly three circles each way."
Thud!
Upon hearing that, Changโe bonked the rabbit on the forehead in frustration, "Yuโer, if you keep being naughty like that, I might have to use family discipline!"
Qin Shou was taken aback, "Family discipline? What family discipline?"
Changโe lifted her head arrogantly, "Today I learned a technique called Iron Fist. It wraps Yuan Qi around the fist. With one punch, I can break a large stone! If you continue with your mischief, Iโll let you experience what Invincible Iron Fist really means."
At that, Qin Shou couldnโt help but laugh. Seeing Changโeโs delicate little fist, he puffed out his chest and challenged, "Come on, let โIโ, see just how invincible my little sisterโs Iron Fist is. Hit me right here on the chest with your little fist, haha..."
Seeing the rabbit so provocative, Changโe wrinkled her nose and warned, "Are you sure you want to try it?"
Unafraid, Qin Shou flapped his ears and taunted, "Come on, let me feel the power of the Invincible Iron Fist, haha..."
"Here I come!" Changโe yelled, throwing her punch, and Qin Shouโs face color changed on the spot!
When Changโe swung her punch, she was able to gather a surge of Pure Yin Energy around it out of thin air, greatly increasing its power!
Before Qin Shou could even yell stop, the next moment!
Bang!
A rabbit was sent flying up into the sky, making an arc and crashing into the bushes...
"Yuโer!" Changโe clearly hadnโt expected her punch to be so powerful and shouted in shock as she hurried after him.
In the bushes, Qin Shou wiggled his butt, kicked with his stubby legs, and pulled himself out of the ground. Crossing his arms and chewing on a mouthful of leaves, he muttered, "Thereโs no justice. How did that girl get so fierce? She just learned some magic, and sheโs that strong... Being the head of this household wonโt be easy, oh my poor old back... Is that really my Changโe? She couldnโt have been switched, could she?"
