Qiu Zu: From an apprentice in a medicine shop to an immortal ancestor.

The small jujube tree swayed its verdant branches, each fiery red jujube emitting a faint red glow, dazzling and captivating.

On the small tree stump, a large mouth pouted, displaying a displeased expression.

Wood spirits are most averse to words like "roasted" or "ripe," even if it's a lightning-struck sacred tree.

"Hehe~"

Qiu Zhen chuckled, his gaze settling on the fiery red jujubes on the "Little Jujube" wood spirit's branches.

The name "Little Jujube" for the little wood spirit was given by Bai Shu.

It was just a casual remark at the time.

Never would he have imagined that a year later, the withered tree would blossom in spring, reborn and sprouting, actually bearing jujubes.

As a "Demon General" level spirit beast, with the foundation of a lightning-struck sacred tree, the "jujubes" produced by Little Jujube are genuine spirit fruits, not ordinary objects.

Little Jujube shook its branches as if offering a treasure, saying:

"Young Master, Bai Shu has been eyeing my jujubes, constantly trying to steal them, but I haven't given him any!"

Bai Shu repeatedly shook his head: "I didn't, I was just looking, I didn't reach out."

Qiu Zhen smiled, ignoring the two little fellows' daily bickering.

A glance revealed eight fiery red jujubes, and six unripe green ones.

Fourteen in total.

Qiu Zhen casually glanced over, curious in his heart.

He wondered what wonderful uses these spirit jujubes had?

Just as he had this thought, the treasure pearl in the hands of Qiu Zhen's Dharma Body in his brow's spiritual platform suddenly burst with golden light.

No changes occurred in his brow, but the third vertical eye quietly awakened.

A beam of golden light, invisible to the naked eye, landed on the spirit jujubes.

"This jujube was born from a lightning-struck jujube tree, nurtured and bred by infinite lightning vitality, containing the five elements, supremely wood and pure yang, possessing vigorous life essence. Consuming this jujube can heal injuries. The jujube pit contains evil-repelling lightning energy, capable of exorcising evil and suppressing malevolence."

In just a few breaths.

Qiu Zhen understood, instantly analyzing and knowing the wonderful uses of the "spirit jujubes".

"This is... the Analytical Eye within the Wisdom Eye."

The so-called Analytical Eye is the eye of analysis.

The Heavenly Eye Path has five levels: Yin-Yang Eye, Heavenly Eye, Wisdom Eye, Dharma Eye, and Dao Eye.

The Yin-Yang Eye can sense Yin energy and see demonic and ghostly beings. Basically, cultivators and martial arts experts with some cultivation all possess similar "Yin-Yang Eye" abilities.

Qiu Zhen was no exception.

Besides the Yin-Yang Eye, he also had the [Heavenly Eye], possessing the abilities of internal vision, remote viewing, and microscopic vision.

Now, having cultivated the Flawless Body, his primordial spirit Dharma Body had undergone transformation, and he also possessed the Eye of Wisdom, the Eye of Enlightenment, granting his eyes the ability to "analyze all things."

Just now, he was still troubled, not knowing the wonderful uses of the "treasure pearl" born from his primordial spirit.

Suddenly, everything became clear.

"Analyze all things..."

This Wisdom Eye ability doesn't enhance strength, but it's a divine skill that can be used everywhere, offering unimaginable help in cultivation and seeking the Dao.

After all, seeking truth and inquiring about the Dao means understanding the heavens and earth, understanding the Great Dao, and comprehending the principles of the heavens and earth.

With the Eye of Wisdom and Enlightenment, one has a path to inquire about the Dao, and the Great Dao is within reach.

"Young Master, Young Master, quickly try it, the jujubes I bear are very delicious. They were very popular in the mountains before, and they must be even more delicious now."

Little Jujube looked expectant.

Following his Young Master for over a year has been the happiest time of its life. Living comfortably in the valley, without external enemies watching, carefree and relaxed, and able to play with Boss Bai Shu, life is much better than it was back then.

Now that it has borne fruit, the first thing it thought of was offering it to the Young Master.

"Hahaha, good!"

Qiu Zhen smiled, casually taking a spirit jujube, using his Yin spirit power to draw clear water from the void to wash it, and putting it in his mouth.

Crisp and refreshing, sweet as honey.

Chewing and swallowing the pulp, a faint warm energy entered his abdomen, nourishing his whole body, strengthening his Qi and blood, making him feel comfortable all over.

"Not bad, even without injuries, eating the spirit jujubes can consolidate the foundation and cultivate vitality, increase power and blood, and is extremely gentle, unlike ordinary spirit herbs and treasures that are overbearing. Even the frail and elderly who don't practice martial arts can eat it, and their bodies will be strong, extending their lives."

Qiu Zhen spat out the jujube pit, placed it in his hand, and further analyzed the wonderful uses of the "spirit jujube" in his heart.

Speaking of which, these spirit jujubes can be given to his parents to eat, occasionally eating one to extend their lives.

"Little Jujube, I also want to eat jujubes."

Bai Shu's chubby little face was full of greed, rubbing his hands and bowing.

Little Jujube was usually a bit "wooden," always single-minded and stubborn. Even though he had a good relationship with Bai Shu, he repeatedly shook his head:

"No, all the jujubes must be offered to the Young Master!"

"Hahaha~"

Qiu Zhen smiled, patting the waist-high, simple and honest little tree stump:

"Little Jujube, you don't need to offer all the fruits to me. If there are no other circumstances, I generally only need 80%, and you can distribute the remaining 20% yourself. After all, these are the fruits you bore yourself."

"Oh oh, thank you for the Young Master's reward."

Little Jujube's branches transformed into small hand shapes, bowing in thanks:

"The Young Master is really good to me."

Qiu Zhen smiled in surprise.

A simple and honest little wood.

With Qiu Zhen's permission, Little Jujube shook its branches, and a fiery red jujube flew over.

"Boss Bai Shu, this is to show respect to you."

"Hehehe~ Thank you, thank you very much. I will find more spirit herbs and treasures to nourish you in the future."

Bai Shu held the jujube in both hands and swallowed it in one gulp.

Perhaps he ate too quickly and hastily, he swallowed it whole, without tasting any flavor.

"This..."

Bai Shu's tender white face flushed red, and he looked eagerly at the little wood spirit:

"I, I, Little Jujube, no, Brother Jujube, give me another one."

"Alright, Bai Shu, the spirit jujube contains lightning vitality, which heals all injuries, not to satisfy your appetite. Just tasting one is enough."

Qiu Zhen interrupted Bai Shu's "relentless pursuit" and instructed:

"When you have time, find more spirit herbs and treasures for the little wood spirit, and nourish it more so it can bear more fruits in the future."

Speaking of which, over the past year, Bai Shu successfully broke through to the "Innate Realm," joining the ranks of "Demon Generals."

Not only did his innate ability [Power of Wind and Thunder] transform, greatly increasing his strength, but he also awakened a "treasure hunting" talent.

If Qiu Zhen relied on his Heavenly Eye to find treasures, Bai Shu relied on his intuition in the dark.

His treasure hunting ability was not weaker than Qiu Zhen's at all.

In fact, Bai Shu often had more success.

After all, Qiu Zhen still had to rely on his Heavenly Eye to search bit by bit, while Bai Shu was different, relying on his feeling to wander around, with luck that exploded.

"Okay!"

Bai Shu nodded slightly, very confident in his treasure hunting ability:

"I will definitely take good care of him."

On weekdays, besides following Qiu Zhen to absorb lightning energy, the little wood spirit mainly relied on absorbing the power of plants and trees to cultivate. The more spirit herbs and treasures in the medicinal field, the more abundant the plant and tree spirit energy, which was more beneficial to the little wood spirit's growth.

"Bai Shu, how many precious herbs do we have in our medicinal field?"

"Sixty-eight, including three with two spirit patterns."

"Bring the [Essence Replenishing Pill] that I refined a few days ago."

"Oh oh!"

Bai Shu ran to the medicine room to fetch the treasure, acting like the housekeeper of Qiu Zhen Valley.

Speaking of which, the clever and quick-witted Bai Shu was very competent as a housekeeper. Besides managing Qiu Zhen Valley in an orderly manner, he also learned the skill of processing herbs from him, saving him a lot of trouble.

Qiu Zhen casually picked the remaining six ripe spirit jujubes from the little wood spirit's branches and asked Bai Shu to bring the pills and leave the valley.
