Unsurpassed Spirits

Chapter 167 The Gift from the Old Tree

Luo Qingli nodded without denying it, then pointed at the poisonous insects on the ground and asked, "Do you want these insects?"

This kind of poisonous insect is generally of little use to Dharma cultivators, but in the hands of poison cultivators, it can be made into a variety of poisons. Luo Qingli has not deliberately studied things like snakes, insects, rats, and ants. , I don’t know what species this poisonous insect is at the moment, but if I take it back to the Jade Toad Sect, I can sell it to the Poison Hall or give it to Liu Daise Jiangling and the others.

Anyway, don’t waste it.

Wan Qishan was the first to shake her head and said no. She was really insensitive to such insect-like things.

Luo Qingli knocked down most of the poisonous insects in this grassland. Ning Shen, Fang Jingshan and Ji Ruochu each only took a small part, and Luo Qingli put the rest into the storage bag.

Luo Qingli was still busy over there, so Fang Jingshan sent a message to Ning Shen and asked curiously: "Senior Brother Ning, is Fellow Daoist Pei a poisonous cultivator?"

"Probably not." Ning Shen shook his head, "Poison cultivators use their bodies to refine poison. Even their attack methods contain poison, but this fellow Daoist Pei has pure spiritual power and does not look like a poison cultivator."

Fang Jingshan frowned and said again: "She uses swords, but she doesn't look like a pure sword cultivator. Although she uses poison, she is not a poison cultivator... Senior Brother Ning, do you think Fellow Daoist Pei is from the Jade Toad Sect?"

"Not all those who use poison are from the Jade Toad Sect."

Ning Shen knocked his head amusingly, "Although the Jade Toad Sect's poison cultivators are famous, it is undeniable that the poisons they sell are always in short supply on the market. Our Canghai Sect disdains this, so we explicitly prohibit our disciples from buying... …Of course, we don’t rule out the possibility that she is a disciple of the Jade Toad Sect, but since they don’t want to reveal more, we shouldn’t be too curious.”

Fang Jingshan nodded and said yes.

Luo Qingli used the photography technique to quickly clean up the mountains of poisonous insect corpses on the grassland. At this time, the peach tree in the middle of the grassland was completely bare due to the scattering of poisonous insects, and it no longer looked as vigorous as it had earlier. vitality.

Wan Qishan walked around the peach tree and found nothing. She could only call Luo Qingli over and said, "Miss Pei, this area is unique in this poisonous land. Take a look and see what you might find."

Luo Qingli found no traces of formation restrictions around the peach tree. It seemed that the tree was just an ordinary tree, at most it was a little thicker than average.

However, this tree has always been growing here. As it ages, it should have developed some spirituality.

Luo Qingli placed his hand on the peach tree branch and carefully released the wood spiritual power.

In addition to the five arts of Taoism, there is also an extremely niche psychic technique. Even if you don't understand the language, you can communicate with spiritual plants without any barriers. However, learning this skill requires a certain amount of psychic talent, and this kind of Talents are often hard to come by, so it becomes increasingly difficult to pass them on. Even in the Jade Chan Sect's library, there are no books on spiritualism that can be found.

It can be said that there are very few people who know how to practice spiritualism nowadays.

Luo Qingli is a body of heavenly spirit. In addition to her excellent induction of spiritual energy, she is also born with psychic talent. She has been exposed to some psychic techniques in her previous life.

But her physical condition did not allow it in her previous life, and it was not easy for her to live to the age of 20. She really didn’t have much energy to conduct in-depth research, and she only knew a little bit about psychics. But since this peach tree has a certain spirituality, She could give it a try, maybe she could sense something from its spiritual power fluctuations.

Dots of green light gushed out from Luo Qingli's palm and sank into the trunk of the old peach tree. She calmed down and tried to reach a consensus with the old peach tree.

Wan Qishan looked on with confusion on her face. Ning Shen, Ji Ruochu and Fang Jingshan also came over and looked at each other, wondering what Luo Qingli was doing.

This old peach tree is ignorant, but it only has a little spirituality, and it has not even opened its spiritual wisdom.Although its body was very old, its wisdom was like that of a baby in its mother's body. It still didn't understand anything. It took Luo Qingli a lot of effort to form a connection with it.

It is not easy for a spiritual plant to become a demon. Just the threshold of giving birth to spiritual wisdom has blocked many spiritual plants. This peach tree itself is not a spiritual plant. It can grow like this entirely because it is in a spiritual place. Above the eyes, they are nourished by spiritual energy all year round.

Originally, the old peach trees grew well on this grassland, but then suddenly the world where they were was changed drastically, and the entire grassland was turned upside down. Slowly, miasma appeared out of nowhere, and the miasma accumulated more and more. There were more and more, and it became like this now, with many insects flying in.

Those bugs lived on it all year round, sucking its sap and absorbing its nutrients. The old peach tree became more and more tired, its body gradually became weak, and slowly it stopped even blooming. Those bugs camouflaged themselves on it. Became flowers and leaves.

The fact that this grassland has not been infected by miasma is also due to the old peach tree. It is tens of thousands of years old anyway, and it has been in this environment all year round, and has developed a certain degree of avoidance, so it can barely leave such a pure land. , but it can't walk or move, and it can't drive away those bugs, so it can only continue to waste time with them.

Now Luo Qingli and the others have killed all those insects, and the old peach tree is very happy.

These things were obtained by Luo Qingli through communicating with it through spiritual thoughts. Most of them are the memories of the old peach tree. Since he knows that there is a spiritual eye at the foot of the old peach tree, then Luo Qingli also knows what to do to leave here. .

She began to input wood spiritual power into the old peach tree, and green light poured into the trunk from her palms. The dry old peach branches gradually came back to life, and a few green buds slowly sprouted from them.

The spiritual power that needs to be provided is too huge, and Luo Qingli cannot handle it alone. She can only look at the other four people, "Fellow Taoists, my spiritual power is somewhat insufficient..."

It was obvious that she had found a way to leave. Without saying a word, Ji Ruochu directly put his hand on Luo Qingli's back and transferred his spiritual power to her.

Wan Qishan bit her lip and followed the same example. Ning Shen and Fang Jingshan also stepped forward.

All the spiritual power of the five foundation-building monks was lost to the old peach tree. Many pink flower buds appeared on the branches, and the flower buds bloomed into peach blossoms under the nourishment of the wood's spiritual power.

After a while, the whole old peach tree took on a new look, no longer the tired and withered appearance it had earlier. The wind blew gently, the flowers and leaves swayed, rustled, and the fallen flowers were colorful, as if to express their joy. .

Luo Qingli took back his hand and took a few steps back. Suddenly, a dark tree hole as tall as a person appeared on the trunk of the old peach tree.

"This, is this the way out?" Wan Qishan was shocked. She never thought it could be like this. She couldn't help but curiously asked: "Miss Pei, what is going on?"

Luo Qingli explained simply: "I just penetrated the trunk of this tree with spiritual power and found that it grows on a spiritual eye. This place does not belong to the trial level and there are no traces of the formation. So this place The spiritual eye will most likely be the only exit. As long as we give the old peach tree enough spiritual power, it will let us pass through the spiritual eye."

Of course, what Luo Qingli did not say in detail was that this was actually a deal she reached with the old peach tree through spiritualism. They provided it with wood spiritual power to restore life, and it opened its spiritual eyes to them.

Wan Qishan was stunned for a while, and Ji Ruochu also sighed secretly.

Ning Shen smiled hoarsely and said, "Daoyou Pei is very attentive. If he hadn't joined us on this trip, I'm afraid we wouldn't have it easy..." Fang Jingshan nodded repeatedly, expressing deep agreement.

Thinking about how much I rejected this female cultivator who joined halfway at first, but later after being enlightened by Ning Shen, I lost my hostility, but I didn't think much of her. It wasn't until I entered this secret place that I realized that even a cultivator of the same level There is actually a huge gap between them.

Luo Qingli suggested: "Fellow Taoists, we don't have much spiritual power now, and we are still injured. We still don't know what we will encounter after entering the tree cave. How about recovering around the peach tree first?"

"What Fellow Daoist Pei said is true."

Everyone sat down beside the peach tree.

Ning Shen Ji Ruochu and Fang Jingshan's injuries have not yet fully recovered, and now is the time to nurse them back to health. Luo Qingli and Wan Qishan have only lost a lot of spiritual power, and they can recover after taking the Qi Restoration Pill and absorbing it.

Luo Qingli's eight magical meridians have been fully opened, and her spiritual energy circulates faster than ordinary people. Moreover, she always ensures that her second Dantian is fully charged with spiritual energy, so that even if her main Dantian's spiritual energy is exhausted, she can still Have the strength to continue fighting.

He stayed by the peach tree for another two or three hours. At this time, the cooling time of the transformation technique was almost up. Although this transformation technique can change the appearance and consumes little spiritual energy, the cooling period of two hours a day is the maximum. The disadvantage is that she has already prepared the disguise pill.

When Luo Qingli took the Yi Rong Pill, Ning Shen opened her eyes just after adjusting her breath. He saw her taking a dark red pill and raised her eyebrows slightly.

As an alchemist, Ning Shen is now capable of refining sixth-level elixirs and is very familiar with them.

Whether it's the Rejuvenating Pill, the Miasma-Breaking Pill, the Detoxifying Pill, the Qingxin Pill, among those common pills, none of them have this color.

Of course, he couldn't guess what kind of pill Luo Qingli took just by looking at it, but he was still a little curious.

One after another, more people finished recuperating. After confirming that each other was almost recovered, the group also arrived at the tree hole.

As soon as they reached the entrance of the tree hole, several peach branches suddenly dropped in front of them. Wan Qishan subconsciously took out the white jade dagger with her backhand, but the peach branches made no further movement.

There is only one flower growing on these peach branches. It is still a flower bud, but the flower bud is the size of a fist and is in bud.

Everyone didn't understand what this meant. Luo Qingli took out a jade bottle and said, "This is a gift of thanks from the old peach tree to us."

She put the jade bottle under the flower bone of the peach branch in front of her. The flower bone opened slightly, and a stream of light green viscous spiritual liquid flowed out from the middle. The liquid filled most of the jade bottle until the last drop was drained out. , Taozhi also took it back.

The spiritual liquid contains surging wood spiritual energy and rich vitality, which is like the essence of vegetation in the old peach tree.

They drove away the poisonous insects for it, and the old peach tree gave it the essence of these plants and trees. This thing has a healing effect that is not inferior to that of Bell Spirit Milk, and even more rare than Bell Spirit Milk.

Seeing this, the other four people followed suit and took out jade bottles to collect the essence of plants and trees. However, the amount of spiritual liquid in their hands was obviously much less than Luo Qingli's, and they could only hold it at the bottom.

Although Old Peach Tree doesn't have much intelligence, he can still tell who has the greatest credit.

Fang Jingshan looked at the comparison of the amount of spiritual liquid in the jade bottle, twitched the corner of his mouth, and whispered: "Is this old peach tree turned into a spirit..."

Ning Shen shook his head and laughed, Ji Ruochu curled his lips, Wan Qishan raised her eyebrows, Luo Qingli coughed lightly and said: "Fellow Taoists, please come."

Ji Ruochu was the first to stand up, "I'll explore the way ahead first."

He was the first to enter the tree hole, followed closely by Wan Qishan. Ning Shen gently nodded and said: "I am behind you, Fellow Daoist Pei and Junior Brother Fang, you go first."

Luo Qingli refused to give in and jumped into the tree hole.

The tree hole was bottomless, and it was unknown how deep it was. Luo Qingli felt that she was falling continuously, and the wind kept whistling in her ears. She wrapped Yunhe Bailuopa around her body, and after dozens of breaths, she saw an appearance below. There was a little light, and at the same time there was the sound of fighting.

As soon as Luo Qingli landed, he saw a wide stone room in front of him. The atmosphere in the stone room was very messy, and a fishy smell hit his face as soon as he entered.

There were many stone figures scattered on the ground. In addition, there were also many sturdy walking corpses full of lifeless energy, which were awakened by the vitality of the living people and jumped towards Ji Ruochu and Wan Qishan.

At this time, a female zombie near Luo Qingli woke up and raised her head.

Her face was green and pale, and she was very tall, half a head taller than Luo Qingli. Her whole body was covered with corpse spots, and her eyes only had whites without eyeballs, and red bloodshot eyes were scattered throughout them.

The female corpse opened her mouth. The sharp teeth in her mouth were like the fangs of wild beasts. Three-inch-long nails sprouted out of her slender fingers. She made a sound of "oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove".

Luo Qingli raised his sword and slashed at it. His nails hit the blade of the sword, making a harsh friction sound, but he was not hurt at all. Luo Qingli's hand even trembled slightly and found that the female corpse was surprisingly powerful and had very strong defense. amazing.

The female corpse failed to hit it, so her hands turned into claws and she scratched hard. Having seen the power of the female corpse, Luo Qingli did not resist, but chose to dodge sideways.

Fortunately, the female corpse's mobility was relatively slow and she walked very slowly step by step, so she could easily avoid it.

At this time, Fang Jingshan and Ning Shen also entered the stone room one after another. Fang Jingshan was startled by the corpses in the room, threw a handful of talismans out, and exclaimed: "What are these!"

"It's the monk who died here." Wan Qishan took the time to reply.

She was currently being jointly attacked by two zombies, one tall and one short. The white jade dagger in her hand slashed at the zombies, leaving only white traces. The traces returned to normal after a while.
