# Chapter 268: Black Pearl
Jiangnan curiously leaned in: "What spiritual art? Tell me about it!"
Mountain Cat held the spirit bead, looking somewhat excited!
"This is a spirit bead from a Mountain-Breaking Armored Rhino, with quality reaching Platinum Rank!"
"Spiritual Art: Power Accumulation!"
"It might not sound that impressive, but the main effect is stacking power, storing it in the body, then releasing it all at once!"
"For someone like me with a power-type ability, it's perfect—it can amplify attack power to a terrifying degree!"
Mountain Cat explained with authority, clearly having had her eye on it for a while.
Jiangnan was stunned! So this was the legendary charging up a big move?
A humanoid tyrannosaurus was already terrifying enough, but if you added this Power Accumulation on top of that...
Tsk tsk tsk!
At this moment, Bai Qianxun had also found a suitable spirit bead!
She presented it to Jiangnan like a treasured offering!
"Boss Nan! Boss Nan! Look at mine! Lightning Step!"
"From now on, your girl Xiao Bai will be a woman as fast as lightning!"
Jiangnan: "That still doesn't change the fact that you wet your pants..."
Bai Qianxun's body stiffened, and she couldn't help but bare her teeth and pounce on Jiangnan, tackling him to the ground!
"Still talking about it! You're still talking about it!"
Everyone had picked out suitable spirit beads!
Jiangnan also stepped forward to browse and select!
He wasn't hoping to find a Space-type spirit bead that suited him.
But picking a few to take back as gifts for Da Lang Mie and little Xuexue would be nice too.
"Mm~ I wonder if they asked Old Man Shen for spirit beads!"
Even if they'd already occupied a Silver Rank spiritual art slot,
it wouldn't hurt to prepare ahead for the Gold Rank spiritual art slot.
Jiangnan stepped forward and picked out two Platinum Rank spirit beads of excellent quality!
One was the Platinum Rank Earth-Fire Dragon's Cinder Drop—an offensive spiritual art with explosive attack power!
The other was the signature spiritual art of the Platinum Rank Silver Moon Wolf King—Wolf Howl!
It should be pretty awesome!
"What should I pick for Big Guy..."
Jiangnan rummaged around for a while, when suddenly he spotted a spirit bead glowing with red light.
For some reason, a sudden feeling of irritability surged from the depths of his heart!
He even felt an impulse to hit someone.
A mere spirit bead could cause emotional disturbance in a person?
"Sister Shanmiao! What's this?"
Mountain Cat glanced at the spirit bead, then walked over and punched Jiangnan square in the chest!
Jiangnan: ???
"Why'd you hit me?"
Mountain Cat tilted her head: "Uh... felt like it!"
Jiangnan: (◦`~´◦)
"I don't know what this is, but I can confirm it's a Platinum Rank spirit bead!"
The dreadlocked uncle was startled: "I have some memory of this one—it was dug out of a porcupine covered in spikes!"
"When I found it, the thing was already dead..."
Jiangnan didn't know what spiritual art it was either, but after looking through everything, he couldn't find anything suitable for Wu Liang.
So he just took this red spirit bead.
He didn't take the rest. After all, a person should know when they have enough!
Having traded the Oh-Hei Black Garlic for so many Platinum Rank spirit beads, Jiangnan already felt pretty bad about it!
How could he be shameless enough to take more?
The dreadlocked uncle looked extremely apologetic, feeling that Jiangnan had gotten the short end of the stick!
"Heavenly Father! Just wait! Once Little Yellow lays an egg, I'll definitely get one to you!"
Jiangnan grinned but didn't take it to heart.
The bonfire party ended, and Jiangnan didn't plan to stay long.
After all, sending little Mila back to the country safely was the top priority!
After discussing with the dreadlocked uncle, they decided that the next morning, he would personally escort Jiangnan and his group out of the desert.
That night, Jiangnan received the highest hospitality of the Kabu tribe!
Inside the luxurious treehouse, tiger skin for a rug, fox fur for a blanket—it was truly imperial treatment!
Lying in bed, Jiangnan gazed at little Mila's sleeping, tender face, his expression full of tenderness.
He drifted off into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, half-asleep, Jiangnan felt something slippery
rubbing against his face repeatedly. He jolted awake!
He saw two black pearl girls with faces swollen like buns standing beside his bed!
Seeing Jiangnan awake, they were overjoyed and grinned!
That grin revealed a row of white teeth—and what's more, they were missing two, clearly from the slaps they'd received during the day!
Can you imagine waking up to see two sets of white teeth floating in front of you, and the teeth even had gaps?
Jiangnan's face was full of terror as he shouted, "Ghost! Ghost teeth! Ghost!"
Jiangnan's screams echoed through the tribe!
The two black pearls quickly shushed him: "It's us! It's us! We're people! Not ghost teeth!"
Jiangnan's forehead dripped with cold sweat. Only then did he realize they were actually two people. He put on a frightened expression: "Um... did you two get the wrong room?"
The elder sister looked down, fiddling with her fingers: "The chief sent us over."
The younger sister looked resolute: "We've come to collect the seed. Tomorrow the Heavenly Father is leaving, and we..."
Jiangnan: !!!
Damn!
Collect the seed?
You mean the kind of seed where I plant a seed, and finally a fruit grows?
"Pfft! No way!"
What was that old perv dreadlocked uncle thinking?
Throwing a honey trap at me before I leave?
If you're going to pull a beauty trick, at least bring a real beauty!
These two girls with faces swollen like buns...
Plus once the lights are off, I can't even see them!
How am I supposed to go through with that?
Sure enough!
A boy going out into the world must learn to protect himself!
The two girls looked utterly disappointed, on the verge of tears.
"Does the Heavenly Father not like us?"
"You were so passionate with us during the day; we thought you liked us..."
"Please, don't drive us out, okay? If the chief finds out, he'll punish us!"
Jiangnan's head was spinning!
"Dammit, "passionate"? If I hadn't gone all out, I wouldn't even be alive right now, okay!
It was a life-or-death situation!
Seeing the two black pearl girls about to cry, their faces full of pleading,
Jiangnan's heart softened.
"You two... do you do foot massages?"
"The kind that goes hard on the kidney reflex zones!"
The two girls were instantly dumbfounded.
Before long, screams came from the treehouse!
"Ah! Heavenly Father! Be gentler with your kneading!"
Jiangnan: "Hehe! This skill of mine—ordinary people can't handle it! Rave reviews!"
"Heavenly Father! Don't just focus on elder sister's foot! There's me too!"
Outside the treehouse!
The dreadlocked uncle crouched in the bushes, ear pressed to the treehouse, listening to the screams coming from inside!
His fists clenched tight!
His face full of excitement and thrill!
"Is the Heavenly Father that amazing?"
"Haha! It worked!"
Inside the treehouse! The two girls lay on the bed, while Jiangnan squatted on the ground, holding their feet and massaging furiously!
He was sweating buckets!
The next morning, the griffin party was ready to set off!
Jiangnan climbed onto the griffin with huge dark circles under his eyes!
The dreadlocked uncle's eyes sparkled as he gave Jiangnan a thumbs-up and kept winking!
Jiangnan: ...
Back in the tribe!
The two girls had rosy complexions and looked completely refreshed!
A bunch of girlfriends gathered around, chattering!
"Hey hey hey~ Is the Heavenly Father amazing?"
"How was it? How was it? Did it work?"
"Tell us all about it!"
The two girls were dazed and spaced out!
"It was a feeling I've never had before!"
"The Heavenly Father is incredible—let me tell you!"
