Chapter 444 Obtaining Wood Heart Liquid
Chapter 444 Obtaining Wood Heart Liquid
Qiuqiu gently shook Grandpa's arm and whispered, "How about we walk on stilts? There are so many dead vines on the ground, and I don't know which one is the Soul Devouring Vine."
Xu Ye doted on his granddaughter mindlessly: "Okay, let's walk on stilts. This way it will be safer. If we encounter an attack from the Soul Devouring Vine, at least we will have time to react."
Qiuqiu picked up the sword, quickly cut a few branches with forks, and quickly tied them to his feet. A simple version of stilts was completed.
Qing Heng saw it and shook his head in amusement. This thing was a restraint for the divine beast that could instantly transform into a beast form.
However, Tang Chu and Shangguan Ruili thought this method was not bad and followed suit.
After a day of safe journey, it was getting dark and we set up tent to rest as usual.
Qiuqiu and Tang Chu were still responsible for finding non-toxic fruits nearby to satisfy their hunger.
Murong Yuwang was completely isolated. No one supported her, and she would not lower herself to make friends.
Not only did she fail to complete the task assigned to her, but she also encountered problems repeatedly. She sat on a slope to rest with nothing to do.
The remaining people each had their own division of labor and were busy. When Qiuqiu and Tang Chu came back, they discovered that Murong Yuwang had been attacked by the Soul-Devouring Vine. Now she looked like skin and bones, with wrinkles all over her face like a mummy. If it weren't for the slight beating of her heart, everyone would have thought she was dead.
The Soul-Devouring Vine only absorbs spiritual energy, how can it absorb water as well? That’s so unusual!
After a careful inspection, Qing Heng concluded, "The Soul-Devouring Vine here may have mutated. It not only devours souls, but also devours life. We must be careful.
Yuanchu used the Chaos Spirit Fire to burn the branch of the Spirit Vine that he had captured from Murong.
It shows that the fire resistance of the Soul-Devouring Vine has improved a lot!
What could originally be solved by a fireball spell actually requires a seventh-grade fireball talisman or the use of strange fire.
As for Fellow Daoist Murong, let Bai Ran carry her. We'll do our best to save her if we can. Once we find the taproot, as long as we can get the vine juice from the vine's heart, she might still be able to survive. As for how much she can recover, it all depends on her luck."
Yun Yi could only nod, this was also the best and most reasonable arrangement.
If Qing Heng hadn't given face to Yun Yi and the others, he would have given up on this matter long ago. Not only could he not take care of himself, but he also caused trouble for his fellow Taoist.
Yun Yi didn't want to care about Murong Yuwang anymore. He once again regretted bringing this proud daughter of the Murong family to gain experience. He was such a bad boy!
It's clear that he has been brought up by aristocratic family. He hasn't even learned how to behave in society, and he didn't even bring his illegitimate daughter who just returned with him. At least he has strong fighting ability and has fought his way out from the casual cultivators.
With Murong Yuwang's previous experience as a lesson, everyone held a seventh-grade fire-attribute talisman in their hands, and would immediately activate the talisman when encountering an actively attacking mutated soul-devouring vine.
Half a month later, we finally arrived at a mountain stream. The breeze was blowing on our faces, the sun was warm, and on the sunny side, the ground was covered with emerald green, and the blue waves were rippling, covering half of the mountain.
It was impossible to tell that this was the Soul Devouring Vine that could kill people at any time. It exuded a peaceful and harmless aura.
A breeze blew, and the green leaves rustled. Qiuqiu couldn't bear to disturb this pastoral scene.
Qiuqiu took out a small red fruit from his backpack. This was a spiritual fruit rich in spiritual energy and was stored in a sealed isolation box in the backpack.
Throw the spiritual fruit into the vines at your feet to explore the way:
If the red fruit loses its spiritual energy and shrivels quickly, you must walk carefully and, if conditions permit, set it on fire.
Only if Xiaohongguo is safe and sound can we continue walking.
The second half of the journey was explored using these small red fruits containing pure spiritual power.
Qiuqiu did the same thing, and within a distance of just over ten meters, seven small red fruits had turned into a pile of mud.
"Who still has a fire-attribute talisman? The road here is really untouchable." It would be better to just burn it!
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads. Even if they had many talismans along the way, they had all been used up.
Tang Chu said weakly, "The talisman in Murong Yuwang's pocket has not been moved. Can we take it out and use it?" Everyone looked at Yun Yi, waiting for his reply.
Yun Yi stroked his beard gently. "Take it out! If we don't get the Spirit Devouring Vine Heart's core water, she won't make it! We've saved her life. Besides, these talismans were provided by Fellow Daoist Yuanchu. He just asked us to keep them separately."
Qiuqiu: That was drawn for me by my Qishu. You guys got it for free!
With the talisman leading the way, everyone finally found the Soul-Devouring Vine.
You can't use spiritual power here, you can only use the weapons in your hands to dig the soil bit by bit to find the main root of the Soul-Devouring Vine.
The soil here is extremely jade-like, and ordinary weapons can hardly leave any traces of damage, so the excavation work is proceeding extremely slowly.
At this time, Qiuqiu missed Qishi's ability to speak and act accordingly very much. This was his innate magical power, and he could use it even without spiritual power!
The only weapons that can be excavated are immortal weapons, and there are only three of them. Shangguan Ruili’s natal immortal sword is the main one.
So everyone was divided into groups and took turns digging. In just three days, they dug up the roots of the Soul-Devouring Vine. Everyone dug carefully along the roots, making sure not to damage them.
Qiuqiu asked Qingheng curiously, "We have always been within the attack range of the Soul Devouring Vine. Why didn't the Soul Devouring Vine attack us?"
Qing Heng patiently explained, "Because the Soul Devouring Vine is at the critical moment of its advancement, it has fallen into a deep sleep."
Bai Ran, Zhu Man and others also came over to eavesdrop, and Qing Heng explained in more detail:
"Cultivation is at its most vulnerable during the crucial moment of advancement. If we tear the Soul Devouring Vine's roots and awaken it, causing it to give up its advancement and frantically attack us invaders, it will be difficult for us to leave this place alive. So we must dig carefully."
Realizing the danger, the youngest of the players are all centenarians, and their lives are closely related to each other, so they dare not be careless at all.
After concentrating on digging for half a month, he finally dug out the spiritual marrow fluid around the main root of the Soul-Devouring Vine.
This is a huge pool of spiritual marrow fluid, and the walls of the pool have been soaked into top-grade spiritual stones.
The overflowing spiritual power soaked the surrounding soil and rocks into medium or low-grade spiritual stones, which were scattered in an orderly manner around the roots.
The main root in the center is the purest green. Feeling it from a distance makes you feel relaxed and comfortable. The huge rock on which it is located is actually fairy jade that emits a strange glow.
Qing Heng: "I don't know when this Soul Devouring Vine will complete its upgrade. It has accumulated so much Jade Marrow Spiritual Liquid, so its dormancy will last forever.
Let's first collect the juice here to treat Fellow Daoist Murong, and share some with everyone. This is a good thing that can prolong life, eliminate hidden injuries, and break through bottlenecks.
If you want to leave the Trial Star alive, improving your own cultivation is the most important thing."
Qing Heng looked at Yun Yi and emphasized that he was afraid that there would be another short-sighted fool like Murong Yuwang.
