152: Section 152
【Afterward, you and Dream Hongshang thoroughly ransacked her Senior Brother's Immortal Cave.】
【You not only obtained the Sect Head's seal but also the treasures he had accumulated over the years.】
【At this moment, you couldn't help but sigh with emotion.】
【Indeed, looting a city is not as good as killing a person.】
【If you were to Cultivate and seek Opportunity on your own, who knows how long it would take to accumulate these things.】
【Subsequently, you returned to Peach Mountain.】
【However, Dream Hongshang's injuries were too severe, and she had to enter seclusion to recover.】
【You had some time alone.】
【If it were before.】
【You would have definitely been unable to resist leaving Peach Mountain to find Nangong Liuli.】
【But now, Dream Hongshang and Nangong Liuli hold equal importance in your heart, so even with such an Opportunity, you restrained your desires.】
【You resisted the urge to find Nangong Liuli.】
【However, Dream Hongshang's true Origin Qi was injured this time, and she needed Qingxia Grass to replenish it to fully recover.】
【But Qingxia Grass typically grows on high mountain cliffs and is extremely difficult to find.】
【When she told you about this, her eyes were filled with worry.】
【She was clearly worried that you would go find Nangong Liuli once you left.】
【Seeing this, you understood Dream Hongshang's thoughts and immediately pulled her into your embrace.】
“Niangzi, don't worry, this time I'm only going out to find the Qingxia Grass, and I won't do anything else.”
【Upon hearing these words, Dream Hongshang temporarily relaxed.】
“Okay, then go quickly and come back soon. I'll be fine by myself on Peach Mountain.”
【After speaking, Dream Hongshang coughed a few times, her face instantly turning pale.】
【The previous battle had indeed wounded her quite severely.】
【Seeing this, you immediately spoke.】
“Don't worry, I'll be back very soon.”
【Subsequently, you carefully carried Dream Hongshang back to the bedroom.】
【But before you could leave, Dream Hongshang grabbed your hand, and a seductive look appeared in her eyes.】
【Seeing this, you immediately spoke.】
“Hongshang, your body can't take it.”
【Dream Hongshang, however, pointed to her cherry-like mouth.】
“To prevent you from doing bad things outside, I must do this!”
……
……
【When you emerged from the room, you felt utterly exhausted.】
【In just half an hour, Dream Hongshang had drained your energy.】
【You couldn't help but sigh, this vixen's technique was truly getting better and better.】
【After leaving Peach Mountain, you urged the Green Bamboo Brush, flying all the way towards Danxia Mountain, which was the closest to Peach Mountain.】
【Dream Hongshang told you that Danxia Mountain once had a School named Danxia, but later, because it offended a great evil Cultivator from Hundred Barbarian Mountain, he released venomous insects that completely annihilated the Danxia School's Cultivators.】
【Even now, many venomous insects infest Danxia Mountain, transforming it from a paradise into a Forbidden Ground teeming with poisonous creatures.】
【But precisely because of the rampant venomous insects on Danxia Mountain, almost no ordinary people enter, and it is filled with many ancient Spiritual Plants and Spirit Medicines.】
【On the Danxia cliffs of Danxia Mountain, it is very likely that the Qingxia Grass can be found.】
【As you urged the Green Bamboo Brush to the mountaintop, you unexpectedly discovered a White Crane standing on a rock, preening its feathers. While preening, the White Crane was also continuously absorbing the essence of the sun to strengthen itself.】
【From your perspective, the White Crane was enormous, with golden eyes and a red beak, its feathers entirely snow-white without any 雜色, and it stood about three meters tall.】
【It was your first time seeing such a large White Crane, and you thought it must have become a spirit.】
【Just as you were about to quietly leave, you noticed a swarm of venomous insects, moving in formation, all climbing to the top of the mountain.】
【The venomous insects possessed faint sentience, and their target was clear: that massive White Crane!】
Chapter 137: Contradicting Nangong Liuli
【The White Crane and the swarm of venomous insects began to face off.】
【You had never witnessed such a scene and couldn't help but stop to watch.】
【Among the swarm of venomous insects, a black snake, about a meter long, was the first to attack the White Crane.】
【The black snake's attack was fierce; although it was like a small insect in front of the White Crane, it showed no fear, transforming into a black light and biting the White Crane.】
【The White Crane's feathers were as tough as iron, and the black snake gained no advantage, instead breaking off a section of its own venomous fangs.】
【At this moment, the other venomous insects seemed to be under some command, transforming into a torrent and surging madly towards the White Crane.】
【The White Crane gently pecked, directly picking up an arm-length iron-backed centipede, throwing it into the air, and with a simple swing of its iron claw, the iron-backed centipede was cut into six segments and directly swallowed by the White Crane.】
【Seemingly having tasted something delicious, the White Crane continuously pecked at the surrounding venomous insects.】
【There were countless types of venomous insects, each with a different flavor. The White Crane ate with gusto, even the ground and rocks were pecked into pieces along with the venomous insects.】
【Before long, most of the venomous insect swarm was annihilated.】
【The remaining venomous insects, seeing that they could not break through after a long assault, also retreated like a tide under the leadership of the black snake.】
【The White Crane did not pursue, but instead let out a cry and flew into the sky.】
【It had consumed many venomous insects; these venomous insects were both poison and medicine, and when mixed, their medicinal properties were extremely potent. It needed to digest them as quickly as possible.】
【Flying was the best method.】
【Seeing the White Crane leave, you quickly went to the rock where it had been.】
【You had previously heard Dream Hongshang say that powerful Yao Beasts usually have Heaven And Earth Treasures growing around them. Since this White Crane was so powerful, there must be rare medicines nearby.】
【Now that it had left, you naturally wouldn't miss this Opportunity.】
【Upon reaching the rock, you felt that it was smooth and fine, already tending towards jade.】
【It seemed that the White Crane's continuous absorption of the essence of the sun and moon over the years had even caused the rock beneath its feet to undergo an unusual change.】
【You observed carefully, only to smell a medicinal fragrance coming from beneath the rock.】
【Without hesitation, you immediately lifted the rock.】
【You saw a plump baby wearing a red bellyband looking at you with frightened eyes.】
【Your heart was instantly filled with wild joy.】
【You recognized this as the extremely rare Ginseng Baby, formed from a ginseng spirit.】
【It looked like it had lived for thousands of years.】
【Now your luck was incredibly good, to actually let you see it!】
【You immediately took off the red sash from your Daoist robe, grabbed it with a large hand, and directly tied the Ginseng Baby's topknot.】
“Bad person!”
“Bad person!”
“Let me go!”
“White Crane Senior Sister, where did you go? Come and save me!”
【The Ginseng Baby, with its topknot tied by the red sash, couldn't move and cried out loudly in your hands.】
【As the Ginseng Baby spoke, you smelled a vast surge of vital Qi.】
【You inhaled sharply, gathering all the vital Qi into your nose and mouth, and your internal magical power immediately surged.】
【Just this one breath was enough to equal three months of your arduous Cultivation.】
【Looking at the Ginseng Baby still struggling in your hands, you spoke to comfort it.】
“Little baby, I'm not a bad person.”
“Don't worry, after I take you back, I will surely provide you with good food and drink every day. I just need a little of your essence blood for Alchemy to save my Niangzi.”
【At this moment, you no longer had any thought of finding Qingxia Grass.】
【This Ginseng Baby was enough to surpass all Spirit Medicines.】
【Seemingly discerning that you were not speaking falsely, the Ginseng Baby stopped crying, its large eyes blinking at you.】
【Looking at the adorable Ginseng Baby in front of you, you directly tucked it into your Daoist robe, preparing to rush to Peach Mountain to restore Dream Hongshang's Origin Qi.】
【But just then, several loud shouts came from the distant sky behind you.】
“Stop!”
“Leave the Ginseng Baby behind!”
【Upon hearing this, your heart skipped a beat. Without any hesitation, you activated the Green Bamboo Brush and prepared to fly away.】
【But before you could leave, a Flying Sword struck, its tip hovering directly in front of you, preventing your departure.】
【Looking at the sharp sword tip before you, you had no doubt that if you dared to move, the next second this Magical Artifact would pierce you.】
【Immediately after, four people landed behind you.】
【You turned to look, and your breath hitched.】
【Nangong Liuli!】
【You saw an Old Daoist with white hair and beard, accompanied by Nangong Liuli and two Cultivators, a man and a woman whom you didn't recognize, standing there.】
【The Flying Sword that intercepted you was launched by that Old Daoist.】
【Nangong Liuli was also greatly surprised to see you.】
“Why is it you again!”
【The Old Daoist, seeing this, asked Nangong Liuli.】
“You know him?”
【Nangong Liuli hesitated for a moment, then nodded.】
“Yes, Master.”
“He is the person I brought from Great Song.”
“I just didn't expect him to have become a Cultivator now.”
【The Old Daoist nodded upon hearing this.】
“So that's how it is.”
“This boy has good luck.”
“His Cultivation has already reached a certain level, and even a Loose Immortal Magical Artifact has fallen into his hands.”
“But I don't know why.”
“This Ginseng Baby actually has no affinity with this boy, but for some reason, he managed to find it first.”
“But it's not too late now, Liuli, go and ask this boy for it.”
【Nangong Liuli was somewhat hesitant at this moment, and the female Cultivator beside her spoke.】
“Why be so polite to a rogue Cultivator!”
“The Ginseng Baby concerns the thousand-year plan of our Mount Emei School, it must be taken!”
【The male Cultivator, however, pulled back the female Cultivator.】
“Let's see what Senior Sister Nangong does.”
