Looking at the two people who were silent, the old man looked like a senior, but he was secretly happy in his heart.
These two people have been abducted by him into the mountain gate. Without the cultivation level of the foundation building stage, they can't escape even if they want to.
Moreover, he believed that the treatment of being assigned a spiritual field as soon as he entered the door was no less generous than that of some large sects.
It's not easy. His Jinguang Sect has finally welcomed two new disciples, and its development is just around the corner.
While the old man was secretly happy, he didn't know that Xu Chunniang was already planning to leave.
At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the spiritual spring.
"Gudong, Gudong..."
There was not much spiritual spring water in the spring, but it was sucked clean.
The spring, which was originally only the size of a fist, has shrunk by half.
Seeing this, the old man jumped in anger.
"It's getting smaller again! During this period, it has been shrinking more and more frequently. If it continues like this, I'm afraid it will dry up completely."
After he finished speaking, he realized that his angry behavior just now was not in line with his "elegant temperament".
He coughed unnaturally, "Don't panic, I will find out the cause myself."
Xu Chunniang looked at Lingquan, her consciousness moved towards the depths of the spring, and her expression moved slightly.
This spring is so deep that it almost runs through the entire mountain and reaches deep into the ground.
It is impossible for so much spring water to disappear for no reason. Something must have sucked it dry.
Xu Chunniang took out the magic weapon made of Thunder Bamboo, handed it to Shen Miaoling, and explained.
"I have to leave for something, so you can stay in the mountains for a while."
After saying that, she took the next step towards the mountain and disappeared from where she was.
This scene shocked the old man so much that he kept looking down the mountain. Where could he see Xu Chunniang?
The young man was also stunned, "Master, if she jumped like this, wouldn't she fall to death?"
The old man had no time to pay attention to him, his eyes widened, and he murmured to himself, "She must have used a teleportation talisman, yes, that's it!"
The old man took a deep breath and calmed down, then looked at Shen Miaoling with gloating in his eyes.
"Your master used the teleportation talisman and ran away. She left you here alone. Don't worry about it!"
Shen Miaoling clenched the new bamboo pole that her master had just given her, and her beautiful nose wrinkled.
"You are lying, Master will not abandon me."
The old man shook his head and said sympathetically, "Why should you deceive yourself? Although my Jinguang Clan is small, I can't accept everyone. You'd better join me instead."
"Dream, I will not join another master. The master will come back soon."
The old man stopped persuading, walked towards Lingquan, and began to inspect the spring.
After a while, she will naturally give up and recognize the reality.
While the two were arguing, Xu Chunniang had already found an underground river along the spring.
This underground river is complicated and complicated, and the water level is obviously shallower than before. It is unknown where it leads.
Xu Chunniang released her consciousness and continued deep into the ground along the underground river. After walking downward for two quarters of an hour, she discovered an inconspicuous black insect.
After discovering her, this little black bug directly attacked her consciousness.
But its power was too weak, and after attacking her consciousness, she quickly died from the backlash.
Xu Chunniang's consciousness swept over the dead bug and she thought to herself.
Insects generally live in groups, and it stands to reason that there cannot be only one at a time.
She continued to walk deeper along the increasingly wider underground river, and not long after, she smelled a strange fragrance.
This fragrance...could it be the geocentric lotus recorded in ancient books?
Xu Chunniang's heart moved, and she continued to go deeper in the direction of the scent, and finally reached the end of the underground river.
The end of the underground river suddenly opened up and gathered into a black pool.
In the pond, a pure white geocentric lily is in bud, tender and delicate.
Seeing the Geocentric Lotus, Xu Chunniang's eyes flashed with surprise and surprise.
Earth Heart Lotus is a fifth-level elixir with extremely harsh growth conditions.
It can only grow deep underground and in places with abundant spiritual energy, and it has almost disappeared in the entire northwest continent.
Earth Heart Lotus has a wide range of uses. If taken directly, it can increase your cultivation level, and it can also be used as medicine.
Its lotus seeds and lotus roots also have various magical uses. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are rare treasures.
What's even more commendable is that the geocentric lily in front of me seems to be about to mature.
The strange fragrance emanating from it became more and more intense.
But why is the water in this pool black?
Xu Chunniang's eyes fell on the water of the pool, and she walked along the underground river. The water in the underground river was clear and had a faint aura.
But at the end of the underground river, the water turned into a deep black mass, as if it could swallow everything up.
All Xu Chunniang's knowledge about Geocentric Lotus comes from ancient books, and she doesn't know whether this situation is normal.
After staring at the pool for a long time, she actually felt uncomfortable, as if she was looking into the eyes of something alive.
But when she looked into it with her consciousness, there was clearly nothing in the black pool. Could it be that she was overthinking it?
Xu Chunniang frowned slightly and injected a stream of spiritual energy into the pool, stirring up a pool of water.
The earth lotus, which was about to bloom, swayed with the swaying of the pond water, and unknowingly unfolded two petals.
The earth lotus has a total of thirteen petals. When all the petals are unfolded, it will be fully mature.
Unripe geocenta sinensis can also be taken or used as medicine, but the effect will be greatly reduced.
The spiritual energy that entered the pool oscillated for several times before integrating into the pool, and the water surface gradually returned to calm.
Everything is normal, maybe the growth environment of geocentric lotus is just like this.
Perhaps the discomfort in Chun Niang's heart not only did not disappear, but became more intense.
The seventh petal of the Earth Lotus has bloomed, and the fragrance in the air has become stronger. In half an hour, the Earth Lotus will be fully mature.
But at this moment, Xu Chunniang condensed a wind blade and slashed towards the Earth Lotus in the pool.
If there were other people here, they might be so angry that they would vomit blood when they saw this scene.
It takes thousands of years for the Earth Lotus to grow. If the wind blade is cut and strong, the Earth Lotus will be harvested in advance, and its effectiveness will be less than one-tenth of the mature Earth Lotus.
The thing hidden under the pool finally moved.
Large black flying insects rushed out of the water, buzzing continuously, and a small part of them headed towards the wind blade. They stopped the wind blade with their body before the wind blade cut off the earth lotus.
Other black flying insects came overwhelmingly toward Xu Chunniang.
Xu Chunniang glanced at the dark swarm of insects and found that these insects were not the same as the black insects she saw before. They should be of different species.
She directly used the Death Heart Flame, and the hot tongues of fire engulfed the large swarm of insects, burning many insects to death in an instant.
The burnt insect corpses turned directly into fly ash, and the remaining insect swarms continued to retreat, and then returned to the pool.
