Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns novel Chapter 118

Alan was stunned.

He did have some with him, but they were all of great use to him.

Now that Jacob asked, Alan gritted his teeth and said, "I have six elixirs of top-grade quality, ten of high-grade quality, twelve of average quality, plus two pieces of 200-year-old Saussurea, one 300-year-old heptacolor mushroom, and one 500-year-old ganoderma lucidum..."

Alan took out most of them and kept a bit for himself.

Jacob was powerful and he probably had Medical Immortals behind him. Given all this, Alan found doing this worthwhile.

Moreover, if Shaan knew that Jacob was a descendant of a Medical Immortal, he wouldn't kill Jacob.

Jacob was surprised at the sum of precious medicines that Alan took out at once.

Robby, the last descendant of secluded families who Jacob met, only had a few bottles of top-grade elixirs with him.

"Thank you, Mr. Dale. I will bear this favor in my mind..."

Jacob didn't say much and took them from Alan.

Jacob, Emperor of the Dark Realm, would keep his word.

And his word was worth a million!

Even Alan did not realize that his current attempt to rope Jacob in would change his fate in the near future.

After Jacob took Alan's precious medicines, he was no longer in a hurry to throw them into the spring.

Instead, he sat down again and stretched out his finger.

From the fingertip, a gray thread spread out and headed towards the spring.

From afar, it looked like he was angling.

In fact, after entering the spring, the gray thread began to wind and intertwine, forming a net inside.

When Alan saw this, he was struck dumb.

It would be extremely strenuous for Alan to achieve what Jacob was doing now. And Alan would have to go more slowly and carefully.

After all, this required precise control over Zhen Qi. It was not difficult to transform Zhen Qi into the thread, and not impossible to make it one hundred meters long. The hardest part was to weave it into a net. A slightest mistake would break it, and all efforts would be in vain!

However, Jacob seemed effortless.

After finishing the net, Jacob cast Alan's elixirs and spirit medicines into the spring one after another.

Jacob threw the ganoderma lucidum into it at last.

Finally, the spirit fetus was tempted.

Suddenly, he emerged from the spring. With a pair of small hands, he picked up those top-grade elixirs and tossed them into his mouth like candy beans. Then, he began munching.

He had a satisfied expression on his small face.

After the aftertaste, he picked up the half ginseng and took a bite, as if he had the most delicious food in the world.

Jacob watched him quietly.

After a while, the fetus seemed to remember that there were two people around him, especially Jacob, who made him feel threatened. He immediately turned his head and looked at Jacob vigilantly.

Jacob smiled as kindly as he could. "Don't be afraid. These are all for you. Go on..."

The fetus seemed to believe Jacob's words. It picked up the ganoderma lucidum again and took another bite.

From the expression, he enjoyed it very much.

Moreover, he looked as if he didn't guard against Jacob at all.

However, in the next moment, it waved his tiny body and carried more than half of the elixirs and spirit medicines, about to leave.

Jacob was well prepared and hauled in the net right away.

Seeing this, the fetus revealed a trace of disdain in his eyes.

He already noticed this net. Anything formed from nourishing mana had no effect on him.

This emboldened him to show his face.

Within the spring, he just came and went, and no one could stop him.

However, the next second, he was startled.

He crashed into the net that he thought he could easily penetrate. What he expected didn't happen.

He couldn't go through the net.

Instead, he was trapped.

Seeing this, Jacob laughed.

Jacob had seen a spirit fetus before.

In the Dark Realm, there was a Lake of Spirit Spring in his palace. He raised a spirit fetus in the spring for countless years. How could he not know the habits of a spirit fetus?

However, this spirit fetus was truly different. This one was cunning.

If he hadn't weaved the net with the power of chaos, he wouldn't have captured this spirit fetus so easily.

"Let me go!"

Suddenly, a mental fluctuation entered Jacob's mind.

The fetus didn't speak.

Jacob also told him through spiritual will. "Fattie, do you want to stay in such a small place your whole life? You even see these elixirs of poor quality as treasures."

"What does it have to do with you? Let go of me!" There was a surge in the fetus' mental fluctuation.

Jacob replied, "If you stay here, you will not live forever, even if you are born from the nourishing mana from the earth and heaven. Once the spring here dries up, you will vanish and return to the world. If you follow me, I promise to help you live forever. Furthermore, you will have enough elixirs like these. You can take them as snacks."

Hearing this, the fetus looked amazed, as if he was moved. But then, it struggled again and glared at Jacob. "Let go of me, or I will kick your ass!"

Jacob gave a smile.

This fat fetus was interesting.

Jacob continued, "You are so lonely here. If you go with me, I can take you to other spirit fetuses. Then you will have a wonderful life. Besides, I have a girl at home like you. By then, I'll set you two up..."

Jacob told the fetus via spiritual will again.

At the same time, Jacob used his spiritual will to draw a few pictures and passed them to the fetus.

One of them showed him the colorful world in the universe. In another picture were neon lights flickering in the modern cities on Earth. There was even a picture of another spirit fetus, Rachel, in the Lake of Spirit Spring in Jacob's palace.

Jacob named the spirit fetus there Rachel. She was an exquisite and adorable girl. Jacob always treated her as his daughter. Elixirs were precious treasures, while Jacob fed them like snacks to her.

The fetus appeared arrogant and determined, as if he wouldn't change his mind for any bait.

However, after seeing Jacob's pictures, he wavered a bit.

Especially when he saw the picture of Rachel, he was moved.

Ever since he was born, he was always lonely. Although it was just Rachel's image in his mind, he couldn't help but get excited.

"How is it? Do you want to come with me?" Jacob offered again in a persuasive tone.

He hoped that this fetus would follow him voluntarily.

The fetus hesitated for a moment and looked at Jacob suspiciously. "You won't hurt me, will you?"

Jacob shook his head, indicating that he wouldn't.

The fetus hesitated for a moment before agreeing, "Alright, then you promise me that you will introduce her to me. Also, you will give me all kinds of elixirs as snacks..."

Jacob felt a little funny, and then said, "Absolutely."

"Then let go. I'll go with you..."

As the fetus spoke, he had a look of misery.

Jacob nodded. Then, he summoned the power of chaos and cracked the net open.

Seeing this, the fetus beamed with delight.

A swoosh was heard.

His petite body disappeared and he escaped from the opening.

Then, he made a face and stuck out his tongue at Jacob. He even turned around and wriggled his butt at Jacob. He said proudly, "Judging from your skeletal age, I think you're in your 20s. You are bold to deceive me with those false pictures. No way will I believe you. I've lived for decades. You should call me..."

As the fetus spoke, he was about to dive into the bottom of the spring.

However, before his sentence was finished, he bumped into the net again.

He was horrified when he realized it.

Was he caught again?

He turned around and saw Jacob with a kind smile on his face.

For some reason, his entire body suddenly trembled. He raised his tiny hands on the spot and said, "I'm sorry. I was wrong. I believe you now!"
