The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 158 The End
The three Purple Thunder Bamboo stalks in front of me are thick and have thirty-three sections. It takes fifty years for each section to grow, so it would take about two thousand years. They are classified as third-grade spiritual objects.

If taken out of the sect, it would attract the attention of even Golden Core elders.

"We were able to find the Purple Thunder Bamboo thanks to Junior Brother Du. Junior Brother, please choose one first!" Jiang Daoyu stared at the three spirit bamboos in front of him, unable to look away, and then looked at Du Yi, who had contributed the most, and said.

“Senior brother should choose first!” Chen Jinshu echoed.

"Then I'll choose the middle one!" Du Yi didn't refuse. Although the three spirit bamboos seemed to be of similar age, there were many intricacies involved.

For example, the one in the very center is wrapped in fine purple arcs of electricity. Its purple color is deeper and it has been around for a longer period of time. Its stem is also slightly thicker than the other two. The spiritual artifacts made from it will be of higher quality.

The stem on the left is thinner, but it emits more electric sparks, making the resulting magical artifacts more powerful. The one on the right is slightly inferior, with a paler color, but it radiates an eerie blue glow and has a trace of mutated wood-attribute spiritual energy.

Du Yi, who primarily cultivates the metal spiritual root, places even greater emphasis on the quality and hardness of spiritual artifacts.

"Junior sister just defeated the enemy, so you can choose first," Jiang Daoyu said nonchalantly.

“Alright! Then I’ll choose the one on the right with a trace of mutated wood-attribute spiritual energy.” Chen Jinshu had already noticed that this spiritual bamboo was unusual.

"These three plants shouldn't be the one discovered by the sect disciples. The timing doesn't match up."

"We will take three mature plants and leave the bamboo shoots for the disciples to follow."

Immediately, the three began to use their respective methods to cut off the thick thunder bamboo that was five zhang tall. When their hands touched the thunder bamboo, they felt the thunder bamboo coming into contact with surging lightning.

The fabric was scorched, but was instantly restored to its original condition by the robe's protective seal.

Chen Jinshu deliberately waited until his two senior brothers had finished picking the Lei bamboo they had chosen before transplanting it.

She planned to try transplanting the roots of three mature Lei bamboo plants, and the two people gave their permission. As long as the bamboo shoots and most of the root system are left, Lei bamboo can be seen again after a hundred years.

After the transplanting was completed, she turned to her two senior brothers and asked them about the next steps.

"Where do you two senior brothers plan to go next?"

"Only the Purple Thunder Bamboo in Purple Bamboo Grove is worth searching for. I wonder if Junior Sister has heard of the Nether Thunder Swamp?" Du Yi's lips curled slightly, his tone carrying a hint of mystery.

……

Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Four figures flew out of the Nether Thunder Swamp in a very disheveled state.

Chen Jinshu and the other two had their hair exploded like a chicken coop, still emitting blue smoke. Their dark blue robes were charred black from prolonged lightning strikes, and their faces were covered in soot.

The Yinshan Sparrow fared even worse. Unable to withstand any of the power with its robes, its feathers were blown off, turning from bluish-green to black, and a faint burnt smell could be detected.

If it weren't still able to fly, Chen Jinshu would have tried to save it.

"Senior Brother Du! Wasn't it said that the Nether Thunder Swamp was relatively safe? Why did the Thunder Swamp suddenly erupt?" Chen Jinshu complained to Du Yi with a slightly red face and a bitter expression.

He then cast a cleansing spell on himself, which removed the burnt ash from his body.

Sitting cross-legged on the back of the Yinshan Sparrow, she conjured a water mirror to tidy her hair. Fortunately, the golden belt given to her by her senior brother helped protect her.

Otherwise, he would probably end up like Du Yi and the other two. At this moment, green smoke wrapped around tiny lightning bolts spilled from his sleeves, and his face looked extremely miserable.

"Unexpected!" Du Yi smiled awkwardly. He hadn't expected that the Thunder Spirit Mushrooms, which were abundant there, would be used for body tempering in the future. He had only collected a few of them when they exploded with lightning.

The three almost couldn't get out. At this moment, the swamp was constantly struck by cyan-gold lightning bolts like snakes, turning the monsters that couldn't escape into charred remains.

This Nether Lightning is slightly different from ordinary lightning. It can destroy everything. If you don't encounter it, it's fine, but once you do, even Foundation Establishment cultivators will suffer. They were unable to escape in time and were affected by some aftershocks, which is why they were not seriously injured.

Just then, a cracking sound came from above the cave, as if a huge crack had opened, and a large amount of green and blue light emanated from it.

In an instant, a huge emerald-green vortex appeared before everyone, with specks of fluorescent light scattering down, like a pillar of light reaching the sky. "Senior brother! The timing is just right! The cave heaven is about to end! We'll take our leave here!" Chen Jinshu knew that the cave heaven's exit had opened upon seeing this.

In fact, there are still one or two days to explore.

However, fearing something might go wrong, Chen Jinshu decided to leave as soon as possible.

"Junior sister! Don't forget about the demonic cultivators! We should report this to the sect as soon as possible. I'm afraid it will be delayed too long!" Jiang Daoyu nodded and instructed her.

"In that case, we should inform our respective masters before heading out together. If we go out and immediately seek out the sect leader, it might alert those people!"

“Okay!” The two nodded.

As soon as the three finished speaking, they saw a large number of disciples flying overhead, rushing towards the exit as if fleeing for their lives.

"These disciples are so anxious, could it be that they have encountered a demonic cultivator?" Chen Jinshu wondered.

“These disciples don’t have much contact with demonic cultivators, but they know a little about them, and they must be terrified! Right now, these demonic cultivators don’t dare to come out. The exit has already appeared, and if they show their faces, it’s no different from suicide!”

“These demonic cultivators will probably behave themselves once they get out,” Du Yi couldn’t help but laugh.

"Goodbye, senior brothers!" Chen Jinshu nodded, controlling the Gale Gourd, and saw the shrunken Yinshan Sparrow hidden in his sleeve.

Her spirit beast pouch could only hold about four spirit beasts, and could only accommodate seven or eight of these demonic cultivators.

She didn't want the Yinshan Sparrow to suffer such an injustice; it would be much better to keep it with her.

With a whoosh, she maneuvered the Gale Gourd straight towards the high-altitude exit, leaving behind a blue afterimage.

Seeing this, the two also summoned their magical artifacts and rushed towards the exit.

Upon arriving at the emerald-colored vortex, Chen Jinshu rushed in without hesitation.

Its whole body swayed and spun around several times before being ejected from the outlet and falling directly to the ground.

"Ouch!" she cried out in pain, stood up and saw people standing all around her, and immediately straightened her clothes.

Looking up, they saw their master, Shui Huanmeng, quietly waiting beside her six senior brothers and sisters.

When Dai Yuzhu and the others saw Chen Jinshu come out, they immediately waved to her.

After quickly arriving in front of her master and the others, she called out several times.

"Master!"

"Big Brother!"

……

"Junior sister! Why do you smell burnt?" Wen Yushu teased, as if he had caught a whiff of something.

"I just came out of the riotous Leize!" Chen Jinshu said with a wry smile.

"Isn't Lei Ze supposed to be very stable?" Senior Brother Zheng Shaosi frowned slightly.

"That's right. It must be the end of the cave world, and Lei Ze is driving people away!"

As soon as Chen Jinshu finished speaking, he noticed that several cultivators from the Feng family were about to leave with the elders of the Feng family, bowing to their sect leader.

The Xuanming Sect allocates slots for each sect's grotto-heavens. When the grotto-heavens open, the sect can teleport in using a token. However, when exiting, the sect can only teleport to one location, which is the opening location: the back mountain of the Xuanming Sect.

"Master! I encountered many demonic cultivators mixed in with disciples from other sects who entered the cave. Please inform the sect leader to keep these people here!"
