A life of clearness

Chapter 132 Two?

Rong Qing and Fenghuang'er saw huge things along the way. The most fortunate thing was that they did not encounter any more human-shaped illusions on the rest of the journey.

And now, in front of them was the tallest tree they had ever seen. Even though they were hundreds of miles away, they could still see it clearly.

Wrapped around the tree trunk was a colorful giant python. Its sturdy body coiled around the tree trunk, wrapped around the skin, and coiled around in circles. The end of the snake's body was hidden in the branches of the tree crown. Rong Qing couldn't tell whether it was its head or its tail hidden in the tree crown.

"Is this the territory of the divine beast that we have to step into?" Rong Qing was helpless. The aura emitted by this giant python was overbearing.

Even though they are hundreds of miles away, they can still feel it clearly.

"…What about this golden exotic fruit?"

"It's in its cave." Fenghuanger said truthfully.

This is tantamount to snatching food from a tiger's mouth.

The giant python obviously also knew the preciousness of the golden exotic fruit.

Rong Qing sighed, "Since you know the situation here, you must have had a way to deal with it before you came here."

After all, Fenghuang'er had invited Rongqing in the first place only to ask her sword power to avoid the threat of the human illusion, rather than to ask Rongqing to fight against the fierce beast with her.

"Of course." Fenghuang'er smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, fellow Daoist. It is very strong, but a weakness was artificially planted in it in the early years."

Oh? Rong Qing's eyes lit up. Perhaps the senior who could plant the weakness was a Divine Transformation cultivator.

Fenghuang'er said succinctly, "Leave it to me from now on."

Rong Qing knew that Fenghuang'er would not reveal how she controlled this weakness, so she smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Fenghuanger said no more, but flew quickly towards the place where the giant python was. Soon, in Rongqing's sight, it turned into a small dot and completely disappeared in the vast green.

Rong Qing stood with his hands behind his back on a huge leaf.

Thousands of miles away, beneath the rock formations, a hundred thousand giant soul-eating insects were diligently carrying top-grade spirit stones.

At the place where Lan Xue died, five fierce beasts were fighting each other. They were always paying attention to their opponents' movements, and their sensitivity to the spiritual energy had decreased.

This is not their fault. After all, there are five divine beasts in the middle of a battle, and the amount of spiritual energy they absorb is extremely terrifying. It is normal for the supply to be insufficient occasionally.

Therefore, they could not have imagined that the movement deep underground would be such a secret scene.

Rong Qing had a smile on her lips and closed her eyes. Half of her mind was used to alert those around her who were guarding her, while the other half was used to firmly control the actions of tens of thousands of giant soul-eating insects through slavery restrictions.

"With my long-range cooperation, the possibility of being discovered by those ferocious beasts is greatly reduced." Rong Qing thought to himself.

She knew that it was impossible to empty all the top-grade spirit veins. Therefore, she gave up a top-grade spirit vein closest to the surface to confuse those spirit beasts. She had to take away the remaining two top-grade spirit veins and eight high-grade spirit veins.

"One top-grade spiritual vein is equivalent to ten upper-grade spiritual veins."

"Add to that, my original accumulation from other places... I already have my original goal of forty high-quality spirit veins."

Rong Qing couldn't help but feel happy at this time.

"When I only collected five high-grade spirit veins, I decided to use two high-grade spirit veins to cultivate giant spirit-eating insects. This way, there will be 10,000 giant spirit-eating insects that have reached the Nascent Soul stage, and 90,000 that have reached the Golden Core stage. Now it seems that this decision was not wrong."

"Otherwise, based on the existing number of giant soul-eating insects, we wouldn't have enough time to move all two top-grade soul veins and eight superior soul veins."

Before leaving the giant insect nest, Rong Qing left behind many restrictions. Fenghuang'er was not an expert in restrictions after all, and she did not realize that some of those restrictions were not for defense, but for concealing spiritual energy.

In addition, she also left behind a lot of storage bags, enough to hold forty spirit veins.

She came here for the spiritual vein, so of course she had to prepare a storage bag.

If such a huge amount of wealth was allowed to be placed in the giant insect's nest, with a large amount of high-quality spirit stones and top-grade spirit stones filling up the huge space, even Fenghuang'er would have a sudden cardiac arrest when seeing it, and would instinctively become greedy.

This is also the reason why Rong Qing wanted to keep this matter secret. "Don't test a person's humanity easily."

"What's more, I made a hasty agreement to split the profits 50-50."

……

Far away from Rong Qing, the giant python that had been motionless suddenly opened its mouth.

The arcs of the upper and lower jaws are almost in a straight line.

Phoenix could not be seen from such a long distance. The giant python quickly closed its mouth, swam down the tree, and burrowed into the ground.

Rong Qing guessed that Fenghuang must have run into the giant python's mouth on her own initiative.

This time, there is no need to look for it yourself, you can go directly to the other party’s hometown.

There was a sudden earthquake underground. No one knew how deep the earthquake was, but the vibration was transmitted upwards, causing the leaves under Rong Qing's feet to shake violently.

"With all this movement...it seems that Fenghuang'er has really found the weak spot of the giant python."

Fenghuang'er obviously didn't want Rongqing to follow her, so she separated from Rongqing early. She didn't want to be left alone.

Rong Qing couldn't just sit there and wait, so she used her spiritual sense to control the bone blade to fly around.

This is very different from the feeling of casting a ban or casting a spell. Those require pinching the fingers to guide them out.

When using bone blades, one must rely on spiritual consciousness to control them very finely. Whether to combine or disperse, and how much force to use to attack, all of these require Rong Qing to carefully grasp.

"I always thought that my spiritual awareness was good." Rong Qing was now manipulating 183 bone blades at once, but it was obvious that "my use of spiritual awareness was still too crude. Even though my spiritual awareness strength had greatly improved after I built the first floor, I was instead overshadowed by the improvement in my spiritual awareness."

The 183 bone blades were waving in the air in a very skillful manner, and to others, it seemed smooth and harmonious. However, as the user, Rong Qing clearly felt that she had the will but not the strength.

"No comparison with Lan Xue."

Rong Qing still remembered that when the beautiful ferocious beast released the bone blade on its body, even with the entanglement of the destructive thunder, it still made the bone blade extremely flexible, forcing the two of them to use their trump cards.

So now she was recalling the scene at that time and imitating the use of the bone blade. Rong Qing had experienced it personally and was deeply impressed by it.

One hundred and eighty-three pieces are too many, so I'll start practicing with nine bone blades.

"This will be of great help to my spiritual awareness. Maybe... I can use it to build a second floor."

Of course, this is just Rong Qing's guess.

……

Fenghuang came back very quickly. In just quarter of an hour, she rushed out of the giant python's territory, bursting out at her maximum speed.

"It can't be chased out now, but I don't have much time left."

So, Fenghuanger immediately rushed back to where Rongqing was and wanted to call Rongqing to leave together.

Immediately, they ran to the giant insect's nest and returned to the cultivation world they were familiar with through the long-distance teleportation array.

"Yu..." Fenghuang was about to speak, but then stopped abruptly.

Rong Qing was still standing on the huge leaf, and opposite her stood two women, one old and one young.

Their facial features and face shapes are extremely similar, obviously a mother and daughter.

A humanoid illusion? Or two?
Fenghuang'er's face tightened and she landed beside Rong Qing with a serious look in her eyes.

But from the corner of her eye, Fenghuang'er saw that Rong Qing's face was not only gloomy, but also terribly gloomy...

This?
