Chapter 578 Poisoning
“Oh my goodness!” Jonathan was amused as he returned to the spot next to the fire. “Joselle, there’s so much spiritual energy in these fruits, but you’re using them as seasoning? Are you a wastrel?”
“What’s a wastrel?” Joselle looked at Jonathan curiously. She did not question him calling her Joselle. Jonathan knew that she was only able to communicate the bare minimum. Once he used more complicated words, she would not understand him.
“It’s fine. It’s fine. You can eat whatever you want. I’ll eat all these fruits here first,” Jonathan replied helplessly as he sat at the side. Then, he took a piece of fruit and started eating it.
The night passed quickly without them conversing. When dawn broke, Jonathan had finished eating the last fruit. He felt his surging elixir field and wiped his lips in satisfaction.
After eating at least ten of those spicy fruits, Jonathan had lost his sense of taste. However, his cultivation level had increased in return.
At this moment, if someone were to check Jonathan’s energy and elixir fields, they would notice his elixir field was plentiful, and the golden core was floating in the middle of his elixir field was glowing. There was no sign of decay.
He turned around to look at Joselle and noticed that she was sleeping on top of the alpha wolf’s fur. All that was left of the five-meter alpha wolf’s corpse were bones.
She had eaten the whole wolf by herself. Indeed, one could not use common sense to judge extraordinary people.
Perhaps Joselle sensed that Jonathan had finished his cultivation as she slowly opened her eyes and yawned. She sat up and looked at Jonathan.
“Slave, are you done eating the fruits?”
Seeing her sleepy demeanor, Jonathan smiled. “I’m done. I have some questions to ask you.”
Joselle turned over to hug the alpha wolf’s skull listlessly. Then, she inserted her hand into its bloody neck. After fumbling around for a while, she took out her hand, bringing out a green crystal core. Is that the demon beast’s crystal core?
Upon seeing the green crystal core, information started emerging in his mind. According to Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique, when a demon beast reached a certain level in its cultivation, it would be able to attain a demon crystal in its body.
This demon crystal was similar to a human’s golden core and was the source of spiritual energy for the demon beast. It had the purest form of spiritual energy. If one used a special method to absorb the spiritual energy, it would benefit their cultivation greatly.
There was blood all over Joselle’s hand as she turned her head to look at Jonathan. “Didn’t you say you have questions? What is it?”
As she said that, she threw the demon crystal into her mouth and started chewing it like it was a peanut, producing a crunching sound.
Jonathan’s mind went blank when he felt the tremendous spiritual energy emanating from the demon crystal.
You can eat it like this? Didn’t the Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique state that every demon crystal contains a huge amount of spiritual energy and therefore requires several formations in order for someone to absorb the demon crystal?
However, Joselle was treating the demon crystal like it was a peanut.
“Question…”
It took a long while before Jonathan returned to his senses.
“Yes, I have questions to ask you. You said that you saw an outsider just like me before. What does the outsider look like? Half a year ago, did you see an old monk called Vladimir?”
“Vladimir?”
Joselle shook her head.
“I’ve not heard of this name, but if you’re talking about old monks, I’ve met two before. They accompanied me for quite a while! However, they wanted to kill me after, so I killed them.”
“Two old monks?”
