Chapter Twenty-Three: True Heaven and Heaven
It seems that it has made up its mind. The core, which looked a bit like metal in the blue-clothed girl's brain, finally began to liquefy, just like blood, and the slowly spreading viscous liquid began to fill the reverse crystallized brain. In order to ensure a sufficient success rate, the Xuanming Pill makes this process extremely slow, and every cerebral blood vessel and every brain nerve cannot tolerate the slightest deviation.
At the same time, Chen Mu sat on the bed made of wooden planks and looked at Xia Xue silently, and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hands. No matter how strong she is and how resolute the expression on her face is, she can't stop the tears that are caused by the severe pain all over her body...... There were exactly the same tears in the depths of his soul......
After accelerated cultivation in the secret room, there was no problem with the Silk of Fighting Qi and the Silk of Mana in the two of them ranking in the top 100 of the new apprentices, but no one informed the two of them of a clear ranking concept, so even if the aura around them was insufficient, no matter how seriously injured they were, they still insisted on cultivating, fortunately, Xia Xue's meridians were not seriously damaged.
Chen Mu finished feeding a large bowl of medicinal soup in one gulp, then sat next to her and meditated and cultivated, these days, they discovered the secret of accelerating their cultivation in the secret room of the back mountain, that is, to get close to the reverse crystal.
The red bucket silk in Xia Xue's body at this time was scattered in the dantian, and it looked disorganized. And the blue filigree in Chen Mu's body has been wound into a thick rope, which looks full of energy.
They didn't understand why there was such a big difference, because they didn't know that the other apprentices' Dousi and Fasi were also distributed in this way, perhaps this "disunity" was one of the reasons why Dousi would eventually be replaced by Mana Balls.
Time inadvertently passed, and another two months passed.
The blue-clothed girl in the corner of the room still hadn't woken up, and in Chen Mu's opinion, this girl who was stumbling might be practicing some secret method.
The legends he has learned about the reverse crystal are all said by Yi Shanshan, but Yi Shanshan has mysteriously disappeared, and now he doesn't know if the girl in blue is right or Yi Shanshan is right. When he first came to this valley three months ago, Chen Mu woke up and saw the girl's clumsy, sluggish and uncoordinated figure, and it was really hard to believe that she had saved them from the demon beast.
An unknown bird flew outside the house, standing in front of the windowsill and chirping. Chen Mu in the room observed the healing of Xia Xue's body through the reverse crystal as usual.
"Xia Xue, congratulations, it will take a month at most, and your body will be able to fully recover!" Chen Mu excitedly told Xia Xue about the results of this examination, Xia Xue's face seemed to have a trace of redness, and her eyes moved to mean that she knew.
After arranging Xia Xue, he came to the small medicine garden at the door and began to pick the fresh herb leaves.
"What is this?Why are there only four large leaves?Why don't I remember digging up this medicinal herb?" I saw Chen Mu staring at a four-leaf clover on the ground in a daze, his heart full of questions.
This strange plant with only four large leaves was stared at by Chen Mu for a long time, and seemed to be embarrassed to move, which made Chen Mu surprised, is this a plant or an animal? He has already begun to doubt.
In a moment, the four-leaf clover felt that something was wrong, and it jumped out of the soil and ran into the deep valley, like a little baby with four leaves on its head.
"Is it a dryad? No matter what kind of plant demon it is, it will take thousands of years, and I'm afraid that I, a little monk who has not yet reached the condensation period, alas, I almost have to run away. Chen Mu laughed at himself, took the herbs and prepared to go back to the house to boil the medicine.
At this time, the "dryad" suddenly stopped, and it seemed that this dryad had very good hearing.
Chen Mu stared at the tree demon in a cold sweat, he regretted that he shouldn't have talked nonsense just now.
The four-leaf clover tree demon leaned towards Chen Mu step by step.
Chen Mu was indeed isolated at this time, and he could only slap his swollen face and become fat, only to see him raise his head, his face full of strong confidence.
The four-leaf tree demon is getting closer and closer, and Chen Mu can also see its appearance clearly, just like the appearance and body of a five-year-old child, and there is a rolled leaf above the face like bangs, which is slightly cute.
"Humans, this valley is not the place you should be, our patriarch told you to leave within two months, or you will face serious consequences. "The four-leaf dryad actually spoke.
Chen Mu didn't mean to contradict at all, and pretended to be calm and said: "Don't worry too much about this fellow Daoist, we are Xuanqing Sect monks, we are here to carry out a special mission, and we will leave quickly next month at the latest." ”
"Yes, I've been watching you for a month, and no one has been out except you digging for herbs on the nearby mountain wall. I wanted to make a deal with you that would be of great benefit to you, but since you did so, forget it. The tree demon didn't give Chen Mu any face, and said straight to the point.
At this time, Chen Mu couldn't help it, immediately apologized, and asked with a smile What kind of deal is it, the way the adult said it is really not suitable for him now.
"I saw a small pile of transparent crystal fragments under the table in your room, and I'm interested in this thing. I'll answer any of your questions in exchange for a crystal, and if I don't think I can answer a question, I can choose not to answer it. Or exchange this bottle of green liquor for twenty crystals, this is the spiritual liquid that the patriarch gave me to cultivate, you can use it to ripen plants, one drop can increase the growth period for about thirty years, and that friend of yours is very slow to recover from the small herbs you picked at the mouth of the valley. The four-leaf dryad finally told his true purpose.
Chen Mu pretended to think thoughtfully for a while, and replied, "Okay, I'll ask you three questions, and then exchange fifteen crystals for your green liquor bottle." The dryad agreed without even thinking about it.
"The first question is: Look at my left hand, have you ever seen such a plant?"
"No, never, such a strange tentacle doesn't seem to be a plant, why do you have this kind of tattoo on your hand, does it have any special meaning? ”
"The second question is: Is there a Lingshu Demon in your clan?" Chen Mu smiled bitterly and then asked.
"No, I've never heard of that kind of ancient tree species that can open up the spirit and turn into a demon. ”
"The third question is: Have you ever heard of Lingshu fruiting?"
"True Heaven Xuanling Fruit! One of the three most peculiar and mysterious fruits in heaven and earth, the fruit of legends that can be found is unattainable, and you can directly soar into an immortal if you eat it, maybe this statement is a bit exaggerated, but even our patriarch has no clear statement about what effect it has. ”
Chen Mu wanted to ask what the other two strange fruits were, but he didn't want to spend more on this anticrystal, so he just forgot it, anyway, he would definitely have the opportunity to know through other ways in the future.
Then Chen Mu handed over the green liquor of the reverse crystal and the dryad, and the dryad took the initiative to introduce the general situation of their dryad clan after getting the spar he wanted, and the two quickly chatted, just like two children of about the same age, chatting, and soon became friends.
It was dark, and after the tree demon said goodbye to Chen Mu, he was just about to go back to the house to boil medicine for Xia Xue, when the tree demon turned around and gave Chen Mu a leaf bracelet. This bracelet is made of the natal leaf shed by the four-leaf dryad when it advanced, and the next time you have any problems, you can use this bracelet to summon it at the mouth of the valley.
"I know you still have a lot of questions to ask, so I'll give you another one, I've been cultivating for five thousand years, and in another five hundred years, I can truly transform into a human form, and I hope I can see you again in five hundred years!" said the four-leaf dryad as it walked with graceful dance steps, and after a while it disappeared into the night of the valley.
Chen Mu watched it leave in a daze, and muttered repeatedly: "Five hundred years, can you see you again in five hundred ......years?"
After 500 years of vicissitudes, is what cultivators are pursuing really the reincarnation of all things and the eternal self?
