Chapter 118: Death
Chapter 118: Death
"Take it back and study it carefully." Wan Ji said.
After all, it is too simplistic and hasty to judge with the naked eye. Maybe you can get more benefits by going back with the help of spiritual objects and magic weapons.
"Brother, you are right." Fairy Yaoran put the seeds back into the bag and gave Jingwu a look.
Jing Wu understood, strode forward, and said to the disciples: "Today, you all have been brave and capable, and have made great contributions to the sect by repelling the rioting spirit beasts. Each of you can go to the disciple hall to receive 300 spirit stones and a bottle of Yang Yuan Dan. I hope you will be diligent and keep up the good work to promote the prestige of our Xuan Tian Sect."
The disciples were naturally very excited. Three hundred spirit stones was more than their monthly allowance, plus a bottle of Yang Yuan Dan, it was really worth it!
"With this spirit stone, I can buy some things for cultivation!"
"The reward is so high even though we haven't officially fought against foreign enemies. If we really kill the enemy today, wouldn't it be 300 spirit stones per head?" Someone came up with a strange equation.
As soon as these words came out, the disciples around him were all green with envy. Three hundred spirit stones for one head! Wouldn't it be rich if he could get a few more? Heavenly Bodhisattva, no one should compete with him for such a good head, these are his spirit stones!
Wait, it seems that the external enemies have been dealt with by the peak masters...
I knock! I lost a huge amount of spiritual stones!
Some disciples were extremely grief-stricken, feeling that their already poor lives seemed to have lost another large amount of spirit stones.
After sending the disciples back, Lu Fengxian said to Wan Ji, "Brother, I'll have to trouble you and Yao Ran to check the situation of the spirit beasts in the sect."
Wan Ji waved his hand, "Why bother saying such polite words."
"Yes, it's all for the sake of the sect. What Master said makes it seem like we are alienated." Fairy Yaoran smiled sweetly.
Sect Leader Lu felt warm in his heart, "Okay, then Jingwu and I will wait for your good news."
They smiled at each other, that was the tacit understanding they had had for many years.
……
Shen Qing returned to Yunji Peak, did a few stretching exercises, and wrapped a willow branch around her wrist.
Shen Qing paused and said, "I have already handed over today's rations." If you still want to ask for spiritual power, that would be too much.
Willow slapped her lightly, "You have picked up some nasty smell. I hate it."
Unpleasant smell? Shen Qing subconsciously sniffed the smell on his body. Apart from the smell of the spirit beast's blood, there was no other smell?
"You mean the smell of blood? It's not like you haven't smelled this smell before... Hey, Willow, what are you doing!"
Shen Qing twisted her body to avoid the willow tree's entanglement. Oh my god, this willow tree was actually being naughty and crawling into her sleeves.
Willow was so anxious when she saw that she didn't cooperate. Where on earth was this smell that disgusted the tree?
"What's up your sleeve?!"
"Sleeves?" Shen Qing realized something and took out a small box from inside. When he opened the box, there was a small seed inside.
It was the strange seed that Shen Qing took out from the spirit beast's eyeball.
The moment the box was opened, the willow tree seemed to receive a great stimulus. All the branches changed their usual drooping posture and stabbed towards the seed one after another.
"Kill it!!!"
The willow branches in the sky were piercing his hands, which was dangerous and exciting. Shen Qing subconsciously threw the seeds in his hand up and squatted down instantly.
With a "puff", the unknown seed was directly pierced by the sharp willow leaves, and then cut into countless pieces and completely crushed into powder.
However, this was not the end. A spiritual fire rose up and the powder was burned to ashes, leaving only white ash.
Shen Qing stood up, looking at the invisible white ash on the ground, and forced a smile, "Liu Shu, how much hatred and resentment do you have? You cut up, ground up, and burned me."
The willow tree finally breathed a sigh of relief when it saw that the seed was completely dead. Upon hearing Shen Qing's words, it couldn't help but sneer, "Do you know what that thing is? How dare you bring it with you."
"Liu Shu, you know the details of this seed!" Shen Qing said in surprise. "Then tell me quickly, what is this?"
"The sorrow of the dead, the tears and blood. This is the seed of the dead!"
The willow tree retracted its branches, and thinking of the tragedy caused by the dead rose, it felt that the whole tree became cold. The dead rose had disappeared for so many years, how could it appear again?
And it happened to be now.
"Wangmi?" Shen Qing searched the name frantically in her mind, but found nothing. She had read so many books, but she didn't know this spiritual plant at all.
"What exactly is this? Can you tell me more specifically?" Shen Qing continued to ask Liu Shu.
Willow did as she wished. "The dead rose flower is said to come from the spirit realm. It feeds on flesh and blood and reproduces very quickly. When it has not yet sprouted, it is as lifeless as if it were dead. Once it sprouts, the host will die instantly."
"This dead wormwood grows fast. As long as it has enough flesh and blood, it will bloom beautiful flowers in a few days, then grow seeds, and then die. However, its reproduction speed is far faster than its death speed. Once a fully grown dead wormwood appears in a place, it will not be long before the place is occupied by a large area of dead wormwood flowers."
"What?!" Shen Qing couldn't sit still anymore.
"This deadly insect is so dangerous that it actually appeared in the body of my sect's spiritual beast. It is going to destroy the Xuantian Sect!"
Shen Qing felt anxious when he thought about the dead roses that he had handed in, as well as some seeds that remained in the spirit beast's body and had not yet been taken away.
Those seeds are not safe at all.
"How long does it take for the dead milfoil to sprout?" Shen Qing asked.
"I'm not sure. But if it sprouts, all living things around it will suffer." Willow noticed that Shen Qing looked unhappy, "Why, is there more than one seed?"
Shen Qing's face turned pale, and he uttered through his teeth, "More than that! I don't know which unlucky person chopped off his head, but he actually implanted this seed of death in the body of my sect's spirit beast."
The willow tree felt as if it had been hit on the head with a stick. Its branches were stiff. It was confused for a moment. “Is it all in the spirit beast’s body?”
"Just some spirit beasts." Shen Qing added.
Liu Shu almost fainted. "No, who did your sect offend that I want to kill you like this? Once this dead rose flower appears, it will be a disaster for the entire region!"
Shen Qing clenched his fists. "No, I have to go to that mountain again and find the spirit beasts that went crazy today. If the dead rose sprouts, the consequences will be disastrous."
She picked up her sword and was about to leave.
"Wait!" Willow called her.
"It's too dangerous for you to go there! You have just entered the Golden Core stage, you are just a rookie. If you encounter a mature dead milfoil flower, it will only kill you and use you as food. Listen to my advice, let's leave here first."
Shen Qing frowned, "Xuantian Sect is my home, I will not leave."
"You!" The willow tree felt quite disappointed with the boy. How could the boy not understand the principle that as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.
