"Jiang Qiong, be careful!" Lin Feng shouted, trying to attract the monster's attention.

Jiang Qiong was already prepared. He quickly turned sideways, and the magic sword in his hand swept straight towards the belly of the monster.

The monster sensed danger and quickly twisted its body to try to avoid the attack, but Jiang Qiong's attack was fierce and still pierced its scales, making a crisp sound.

"Well done!"

Lin Feng said with relief, and took the opportunity to cast a spell from behind. The spiritual light condensed into an arrow of light and shot accurately at the monster's eyes.

The monster roared in pain, its eyes pierced by light arrows. The intense pain made it lose its balance and staggered backwards.

Jiang Qiong seized the opportunity and swung the magic sword again, heading straight for the monster's heart.

At this moment, the monster roared, and powerful spiritual power burst out from its body. The air around it instantly became scorching hot, as if it was going to burn everything to ashes.

Jiang Qiong's heart tightened and she felt a strong sense of oppression.

"We can't back down!"

Lin Feng gritted his teeth, quickly adjusted his body, and prepared to cast the spell again.

His voice echoed in the cave, full of determination and power.

"Senior, let me attract its attention!"

Jiang Qiong said loudly, with courage burning in his heart. He rushed towards the monster regardless of everything, with the magic sword in his hand, the sword light flashing, and he rushed straight to the front of the monster.

"Go!" He shouted, and the magic sword drew a bright light and hit the monster directly.

The monster was attracted by Jiang Qiong's attack. It turned around angrily and opened its mouth to roar, but was hit again by Lin Feng's staff. The flashing light made the monster's attack lose its power.

"Now, hurry up!"

Lin Feng shouted, Jiang Qiong's heart was shocked, and he quickly adjusted his posture, and stabbed out with the magic sword again, heading straight for the monster.

This sword seemed to contain all his courage and determination. The sword light was like a rainbow, piercing straight into the heart of the monster.

With a deafening roar, the monster finally couldn't bear the burden, and its huge body fell down, turning into a black shadow and dissipating into the air.

"Little monster, you are courting death!"

Jiang Qiong was panting, her heart full of excitement and joy. She looked back at Lin Feng with a smile of victory on her face.

Lin Feng smiled slightly, his eyes flashing with approval, and said with a smile: "Not bad, you performed very well."

Jiang Qiong's heart was filled with gratitude and pride. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a low roar in his ears.

The two of them felt a tightness in their hearts and looked up, and saw another black shadow appear outside the cave.

"Senior, how come there are more monsters?" Jiang Qiong's voice trembled slightly, and uneasiness surged in his heart.

"It seems we must leave here as soon as possible." Lin Feng's face was solemn. He quickly packed his equipment and spoke slowly.

Jiang Qiong nodded, knowing that the crisis was not over.

They quickly packed up the elixirs and prepared to retreat out of the cave.

"Follow me closely!" Lin Feng said in a low voice, and walked towards the cave entrance with Jiang Qiong.

Their hearts were filled with a sense of urgency, and they had to find a safe place before the monster attacked again.

Jiang Qiong and Lin Feng walked out of the cave. The wind was biting cold and the moonlight sprinkled on the snow like water, reflecting a silver-white world.

The two men hurried along, the roar of the monster still echoing in their minds, as if the low echo was still lingering in their ears.

As Lin Feng walked, he looked around vigilantly, fearing that other monsters would suddenly appear.

In a blink of an eye, they returned to a secluded thatched hut, where the snow on the roof shimmered faintly in the moonlight.

Lin Feng pushed open the door, and a warm atmosphere emanated from the room. The stove in the corner was still emitting a slight smoke.

Jiang Qiong breathed a sigh of relief and secretly rejoiced that he could finally temporarily avoid the pursuit of those monsters.

"Let's get rid of the monster's meat first." Lin Feng said, with a hint of fatigue in his tone.

Jiang Qiong nodded, her heart filled with energy.

They quickly dragged the monster they had just killed in and placed it next to the stove. Lin Feng took out some spiritual herbs from his storage bag and began to prepare the seasoning for baking.

Jiang Qiong was responsible for skinning the monster. His movements were skillful and quick. He secretly recalled the battle just now and felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

"The meat of this monster is very nutritious. It must be delicious when roasted." Lin Feng said with a smile as he prepared the food.

"Senior, you are right. Opportunities like this don't come often." Jiang Qiong also smiled, and the tension in her heart gradually dissipated.

As the flames rose, the monster's meat was gradually roasted to a golden color. The aroma was so fragrant that the two men couldn't help swallowing.

Jiang Qiong looked at the pieces of meat, her heart full of anticipation, "Senior, I must try it later!"

"Of course, once it's cooked, you can enjoy it." Lin Feng responded with a smile, a hint of relief in his eyes.

Soon, the flames roasted the monster's meat until it was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the aroma filled the air.

The two sat around the fire, sharing the delicious meal after the battle, their hearts filled with warmth and satisfaction.

"Senior, today's battle has taught me a lot." Jiang Qiong said seriously, "No matter how powerful the enemy is, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to defeat them!"

Lin Feng nodded and said in agreement: "That's right, unity is strength."

"The road ahead is still long, you must always maintain this belief."

While eating barbecue, the two chatted about their respective experiences and practices, and the atmosphere became more harmonious.

It was not until late at night and the fire gradually went out that they each returned to their own bedrooms, ready to face the challenges of the new day.

The next morning, the sun shone through the window into the hut, warm and bright.

Lin Feng had already gotten up and was packing his equipment, preparing to go to the mountain to chop firewood.

"Jiang Qiong, get up quickly! Let's go cut down some spiritual trees today to prepare for the winter."

Jiang Qiong immediately jumped up from the bed and said, "Okay, senior, I'll be there right away!"

Soon after, the two set off, walking up the path towards the mountain.

Along the way, the air was fresh and birds were singing happily in the treetops, as if to cheer them up for their trip.

As they walked, they heard the sound of gurgling water in front of them, and Lin Feng took Jiang Qiong to the direction of the sound.

When they reached the edge of a cliff, Jiang Qiong couldn't help but exclaim at the sight before them: "Wow, Senior, this place is so beautiful!"

In front of you is a towering waterfall. The water pours down from the cliff like a silver thread, splashing everywhere, like crystal clear pearls sparkling in the sun.

The pool of water under the waterfall is crystal clear and the surrounding rocks have been washed smooth by the water, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, just like a fairyland on earth.

"This is Lingquan Waterfall. The water contains rich spiritual energy that lasts all year round." Lin Feng introduced with a smile.

"It's so beautiful!" Jiang Qiong stared at the waterfall, her heart full of longing.

He thought to himself that if he could practice in a place like this, he would be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

"Let's stop here and take a rest." Lin Feng said, pointing to a flat rock and motioning Jiang Qiong to sit down.

The two sat on the rocks, quietly admiring the beauty of the waterfall, feeling extremely comfortable in their hearts.

The sound of water is like a song, accompanied by the mountain breeze, as if telling the mysteries of nature.

"Senior, where does the spiritual tree grow?" Jiang Qiong asked curiously.

"Spiritual trees usually grow near mountain ridges, where there is plenty of sunlight and rich spiritual energy." Lin Feng replied, "We should be able to find it if we go up a little further."

So the two continued to climb up the mountain, enjoying the scenery along the way, and gradually approached the ridge.

As the altitude increases, the surrounding scenery becomes more spectacular, shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland.

The sacred trees in the mountains are tall and straight, with umbrella-like crowns, exuding a faint spiritual aura.

"Senior, these spiritual trees look really good!" Jiang Qiong said excitedly.

"That's right. The wood of the spirit tree is not only tough, but also has strong spirituality, making it suitable for making magic tools."

Lin Feng nodded and said, "Let's cut some back today."

The two of them began to get busy. Jiang Qiong carefully chopped down the spiritual tree with the spiritual sword. The trunk made a crisp sound, and with a loud bang, the spiritual tree fell down.

Lin Feng helped on the side, responsible for tying up the cut spiritual trees neatly.

As time went by, they gradually cut down most of the spiritual trees and carried a full load of harvest on their backs.

"It's time for us to go back. We've had a good harvest today." Lin Feng said.

"Okay, senior, I'll help you."

Jiang Qiong said excitedly, secretly looking forward to the production process after bringing these spiritual trees back to the thatched cottage.

On the way back, the sun shone on them through the clouds.

The two of them laughed and talked all the way as they walked down the hill and returned to the thatched cottage.

The sunlight shone through the leaves on them, warm and bright.

Jiang Qiong excitedly placed the spiritual tree on the open space in front of the thatched cottage.

"Senior, shall we start cutting the spirit tree now?" Jiang Qiong asked impatiently, his desire to make magic tools growing stronger.

“Of course, the wood from the spirit tree needs to be processed as quickly as possible to prevent the loss of spiritual energy.”

Lin Feng smiled slightly, took out a sharp magic knife and handed it to Jiang Qiong.

"Try it first. This knife can cut the wood of spiritual trees very smoothly."

Jiang Qiong took the magic knife, his heart filled with excitement.

He carefully observed the texture of the spirit tree, looking for the most suitable cutting point.

As the magic knife slashed across the tree trunk, wood chips flew up and the crisp sound echoed in the air.

"Very good, the cut is very clean." Lin Feng was instructing from the side, with an appreciation in his eyes.

“Remember to cut along the grain of the tree to preserve the spirituality of the wood.”

Jiang Qiong nodded and secretly encouraged herself in her heart.

He concentrated all his attention on cutting, and as the magic knife was swung, the wood of the magic tree was gradually cut into neat pieces.

With every cut, Jiang Qiong could feel the spiritual energy flowing through the wood, as if some subtle connection had been established between him and the spiritual tree.

Soon, several smooth spiritual woods were cut. Jiang Qiong piled them neatly aside with satisfaction, feeling full of a sense of accomplishment.

"Well done, keep up the good work." Lin Feng nodded approvingly, and then began to get busy dealing with the spiritual tree on the other side.

He used the spiritual knife to cut quickly and accurately, and the fragrance of the spiritual wood filled the air, intoxicating.

At this moment, Jiang Qiong caught a glimpse of some small creatures crawling on the trunk of the spirit tree out of the corner of his eye.

He was startled and took a closer look, and found that they were several colorful spiritual insects.

These spiritual insects sparkle with colorful light in the sunlight, as if they are treasures of nature.

"Senior, look!" Jiang Qiong shouted excitedly, pointing at those spirit insects.

"There are spirit insects here!"

When Lin Feng heard the voice, he stopped what he was doing and turned to walk towards Jiang Qiong.

He carefully observed those spirit insects, with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "These are spirit insects, very precious, and can be used to refine pills and enhance spiritual energy."

"Do we need to catch it quickly?" Jiang Qiong asked impatiently.

"Of course, there aren't many spirit insects. If we catch them, it can bring us unexpected gains."

“There’s no reason to miss it.”

Lin Feng nodded.

Jiang Qiong approached the spirit insects carefully, trying not to disturb them.

He stretched out his hand, gently caught a spirit insect, and felt the slight vibration on its body.

The spirit insect twisted in his palm, as if resisting, but Jiang Qiong carefully placed it in a small bottle to ensure its safety.

"Senior, I caught it!"

Jiang Qiong excitedly raised the vial, the spirit insect inside sparkling beautifully in the sunlight.

"Very good, keep catching some." Lin Feng encouraged with a smile: "The more spirit insects there are, the better the effect of refining the pill will be."

Under Lin Feng's guidance, Jiang Qiong began his journey of catching spirit insects.

He searched carefully around the branches of the spirit tree. The spirit insects didn't seem to be too afraid of him. Instead, they were leisurely and contented in the sunshine.

After some effort, Jiang Qiong finally caught more than a dozen spirit insects.

"Senior, I have caught so many spirit insects, are you satisfied?"

Jiang Qiong walked to Lin Feng excitedly, raised the bottle and asked.

"Very good." Lin Feng nodded with satisfaction, his eyes full of approval.

"Next, we will use these spirit insects to refine the elixir together."

Lin Feng said, and began to tie the cut spiritual wood neatly together.

Jiang Qiong was also busy putting the spirit insects into a larger container to ensure that they would not get hurt on the return journey.

When everything was ready, the two moved the spiritual wood and spiritual insects back to the storage room.

Inside the storage room, the air was filled with a faint spiritual aura, and some ancient runes were inlaid on the walls, emitting a faint glow.

Lin Feng carefully placed the spiritual wood aside and began to sort out the spiritual insects he had just captured.

"These spirit insects can be used to refine different kinds of elixirs, and can even heal some minor injuries."

While Lin Feng was busy, he explained to Jiang Qiong.

"Senior, what kind of elixir are you planning to refine?" Jiang Qiong asked curiously, with anticipation gleaming in his eyes.

"I plan to refine some 'Spirit Gathering Pills' that can help practitioners absorb spiritual energy better and improve their cultivation." Lin Feng said seriously with a firm look in his eyes.

"Can I help?" Jiang Qiong immediately expressed his willingness to participate, and was full of longing for the process of alchemy.

"Of course, alchemy requires patience and meticulousness. This is a good opportunity for you to learn more about alchemy." Lin Feng smiled slightly and nodded in agreement.

The two began to get busy. Under Lin Feng's guidance, Jiang Qiong prepared the materials for the spirit insects and spirit wood one by one. (End of this chapter)
