Chapter 45: Distress
In the dark night, there was silence in the mountains and forests, and occasionally the voices of some monsters could be heard. The moonlight was hazy www.biquge.info the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion, and the moonlight leaked down along the gaps in the leaves, shining on the face of a woman whose face was as white as snow. She was covered in a mess and her face was splattered with blood. There were also multiple wounds on his body, and the blood was bleeding profusely.
This woman is none other than Mu Jinxi. During Xiao Zilan's eight years of retreat, although her cultivation has improved, it is still not enough to satisfy her. So in the last two years, she began to go out to practice, in order to break through from continuous training and constantly wandering on the edge of life and death.
It's a pity that it backfired, Mu Jinxi's cultivation speed was still the same as the original speed, and there was no growth. Originally, she planned to go back after these few days, but unexpectedly, God brought her a greater test. Listening to the cries of the demon beasts that were getting closer and closer, Mu Jinxi smiled bitterly, is this the rhythm of dying.
If you want to say why Mu Jinxi is like this, you have to start from two days ago.
Mu Jinxi came to this mountain forest to practice, and originally wanted to return to the sect after saying that he would return to the sect in the next few days, but he didn't expect-
Breaking through the surrounding weeds, Mu Jinxi opened a path for herself. There was no danger here, but she still wanted to walk around and see if she would encounter any monsters. The demon beasts in this mountain forest are all low-level. Occasionally, one or two fifth-order demon beasts would appear, but with her current strength, it was more than enough to deal with fifth-order demon beasts.
It's just that what Mu Jinxi didn't expect was that the fifth-order demon beast didn't see it, but let her meet the Blood Shadow Grass. This Blood Shadow Grass is not a particularly precious herb, and it can be encountered very often, but the Blood Shadow Grass sold on the market is a male grass and has not bloomed. And the Blood Shadow Grass that Mu Jinxi encountered was about to bloom.
There are two kinds of grasses, the blood shadow grass, male and female, the female grass blooms for a thousand years, and the flowers are extinguished as soon as they bloom, but the male grass never blooms. The female Blood Shadow Grass is an extremely precious elixir, and its flowers are even more rare. Many people spend a lot of money just to get a blood shadow grass flower. In addition to its excellent medicinal effect, it is also extremely difficult to collect.
There are always such and such demon beasts guarding around the Blood Shadow Grass, and if you want to pick the Blood Shadow Grass, you must first deal with the demon beasts guarding its side, and you must solve the demon beasts before the Blood Shadow Grass blooms. Then, when the flower blooms, you must drip your own blood into the stamens of the Blood Shadow Grass to prolong its flowering time, during which time no one can disturb it, otherwise the Blood Shadow Flower will wither immediately.
There are also some people who try to bring the Blood Shadow Grass back to cultivate it so that it can be easily picked. But almost no one succeeded. It is difficult to distinguish between the female and male grasses of the Blood Shadow Grass, and the ratio of females to males is also uneven, so basically there will be only one female grass for every 10,000 male grasses. Therefore, it is really not easy to find a flowering Blood Shadow Grass.
What made Mu Jinxi happy was that there were no demon beasts around this Blood Shadow Grass, and the Blood Shadow Grass in front of her seemed to be about to bloom.
So Mu Jinxi stayed on the edge of the Blood Shadow Grass, waiting for it to bloom. After waiting for a while, the Blood Shadow Grass really bloomed as Mu Jinxi thought. Mu Jinxi immediately slashed her palm and dripped blood into the stamen.
The speed at which the flowers bloom gradually slows down. Mu Jinxi's blood gradually penetrated the entire Blood Shadow Grass, and then she picked the flowers of the Blood Shadow Grass and put them in the jade box, and then picked the entire Blood Shadow Grass with the roots, so that there was still some soil at the end of the roots, so as to ensure the activity of the Blood Shadow Grass.
I finally found a female Blood Shadow Grass, and of course I had to pack it up and take it away. It's just that the heavens are not beautiful, and Mu Jinxi's actions have fallen into the eyes of someone in the bushes on the side.
Mu Jinxi was immersed in the joy of picking the Blood Shadow Grass, and didn't notice that there were people in the bushes next to her. After picking the Blood Shadow Grass, Mu Jinxi was ready to leave. encountered a few demon beasts on the way, and Mu Jinxi also took care of those demon beasts.
It's just that she didn't expect that after she finished cooking the demon beast, someone actually raided her.
Following the man's palm, Mu Jinxi distanced himself from him. This man was the one next to the bushes. He originally wanted to directly snatch the Blood Shadow Grass in Mu Jinxi's hand, but Mu Jinxi never made a move from beginning to end, which made him very embarrassed, so he had to follow Mu Jinxi.
Finally, he couldn't help but make a move after seeing Mu Jinxi's several shots. Anyway, at this time, he almost understood Mu Jinxi's strength.
After pulling away from her, Mu Jinxi didn't know why this person wanted to attack her. But she didn't ask, because no matter what, the person in front of her had already done it.
The two swords clashed, and many of the surrounding trees were destroyed by the sword qi. And the two people who clashed against each other did not have any good fruit. Mu Jinxi had a few more wounds on his body, and the man was not much better. The strength between the two of them is comparable. If you continue to fight like this, you can only lose both.
So the man came up with an extremely vicious trick - detonation. He secretly put a spell on the sword, used his aura, and fought with Mu Jinxi again.
Mu Jinxi didn't notice the small actions he made, the man in front of her hurt her, according to her character of revenge, there can only be one end for the man in front of her, that is, death.
But with equal strength, it was already quite difficult for Mu Jinxi to kill the man in front of him, not to mention, this man had already faintly gained some upper hand. When Mu Jinxi was thinking about how to kill the person in front of him with his own hands, the man in front of him had already moved, and a sword flew over, Mu Jinxi couldn't dodge, so he had to pick up the sword and fight with him.
But he didn't expect that the man in front of him was so vicious, the flying sword exploded, and Mu Jinxi was also injured a lot.
The man smiled, a sword can be exchanged for the flowers of the Blood Shadow Grass, and it is worth it.
Mu Jinxi took out two smoke bombs from the storage bag and threw them at the man.
The man thought it was some kind of secret weapon and hurriedly dodged it. The smoke bomb exploded, and his eyes were shrouded in smoke, and after the smoke dispersed, Mu Jinxi had disappeared.
"Damn, I almost got it." The man cursed secretly.
After throwing the smoke bomb, Mu Jinxi hurriedly ran away. Fearing that the man would catch up, she immediately flew deep into the woods with her flying sword. Finally, he was exhausted and fell from the flying sword. So it became what it is now.
Thinking of the man who attacked her, Mu Jinxi chuckled: "Even if I die, you don't want to live." ”
Mu Jinxi had already added three days of ecstasy to the smoke bomb. Within three days, the man would have been reduced to a pool of blood.
