Chapter 286 Go with the flow
At this moment, Feixia flew back to Yunxi's shoulder and transmitted her voice:
“Master, there are only ten half-dead spiritual plants here besides weeds, all below the third rank. Moreover, I just noticed that the light barrier surrounding the floating island has been strengthened. It will probably take some effort to break through it.”

"I feel it too."

Yunxi looked up at the sky and watched the energy flow through the light shield. She raised her hand and cast a lightning strike. After the purple lightning struck the light shield, only a crack appeared on it. After the lightning strike's attack power was exhausted, a halo flashed, and the crack on the light shield healed in a breath.

Dian Dian raised her head and said:

"Master, this light barrier is amazing; it can even repair itself. Does this mean it's not planning to let us leave?"

Yunxi also looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, stroking her chin as she said:

"It seems so, unless I can shatter this shield with a single blow."

Dian Dian had great confidence in Yun Xi and immediately said:

"Master, let's fight our way out."

Yunxi thought so too; this barrier couldn't hold her. Just as she was gathering her strength to unleash a powerful attack, the fairy spirit suddenly transmitted her voice:

“Master, this is the first floating island. There’s no need for you to waste your spiritual energy here.”

Yunxi paused, then asked:

"Xianling, what do you mean by that?"

“Master, doesn’t the stone tablet say ‘equivalent exchange’? You dug up that Vitality Tree, but you can take an equivalent spiritual plant from your portable medicine garden. That way you can go to the next floating island. Wouldn’t that be simpler?”

Yunxi thought about it and felt that what Xianling said made sense, but she felt that this guy was acting a bit strangely, so she tentatively asked:

"Xianling, you haven't done anything you shouldn't have behind my back, have you?"

"Master, why would you think that? What can I do?"

Although the voice was loud, it inexplicably gave people a feeling of guilt.

Yunxi narrowed her eyes and said:
"Xianling, if you've really done something, you'd better tell me. That way I can be mentally prepared. If what you did has implicated me, hehe..."

Yunxi's cold laugh made Xianling feel even more uneasy, and it could only mutter:

"I didn't do anything special, I just absorbed that top-grade spiritual vein when I left the Witch Clan tribe!"
If I hadn't had foresight, you wouldn't have been able to endure that cocoon that drained your spiritual energy for so long.

To ensure your safety, I supplied spiritual energy to both Diandian and Feixia, and even that red fox received some – he really got off easy!

As the fairy continued speaking, she became increasingly self-righteous, claiming that she did all this for her master.

Upon hearing this, Yunxi rubbed her temples. She hadn't expected Xianling to act so quickly; it was clear she had done this kind of thing quite often before.

She said helplessly:

“Immortal Spirit, it’s not that I don’t want you to do this, but you yourself said that the mirror spirit here has already awakened. You’re blatantly taking away an entire spiritual vein. What if it traps us here?” After saying that, she looked up at the light barrier above her head.

"Ahem, Master, that jungle was originally designated as a place to eliminate the Witch Clan and deal with the failed evolutionary monsters. The Spirit of the Realm deliberately placed cultivators there with ill intentions."

The cultivators who entered with you will help eliminate the giant beasts that failed to evolve. You took all the Wu tribe members with you, and the last person cultivating Wu power died. The Wu tribe was completely wiped out. In essence, you indirectly helped the Mirror Spirit complete its mission. It's not unreasonable for me to take one of its spiritual veins as compensation.”

Upon hearing Xianling's explanation, Yunxi frowned even more deeply. It turned out that this was the reason why Xianling had repeatedly prevented her from bringing the Wu Clan into the space.

"You mean the descendants of the Witch Clan can't leave this secret realm not entirely because it's sealed, but because the Heavenly Dao used this new secret realm to trap and kill the Witch Clan, causing their complete extinction?"

The fairy spirit paused for a moment before speaking:

"...Master, this is the fate of the Witch Clan. They will rebel in order to survive, but their abilities have already interfered with the operation of the Heavenly Dao, so their decline is inevitable."

If the only old woman in the Witch Clan who cultivates witch power doesn't die, and you bring her into this space, you will be implicated in the future. Cultivating witch power and possessing the bloodline of the Witch Clan are completely different things.

The last high priest of the Witch Clan sacrificed his life to send his people to different small worlds so that the clan could continue. But do you think Heaven would allow it? Who knows if this wasn't what Heaven wanted? Perhaps Heaven was simply acting in accordance with the natural order, scattering the Witch Clan and trapping them one by one until they perished.

After hearing Xianling's explanation, Yunxi realized that she had been making assumptions. At the same time, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. The extermination of the Wu clan had objective reasons and the intervention of the Heavenly Dao. It was more like the Wu clan was abandoned by the Heavenly Dao after completing its mission. Only the two sides knew the real reason.

At the same time, she couldn't help but wonder if it was because of her Wu clan bloodline that she was constantly harassed by the Heavenly Dao, which even supported Wei Yunqing to fight against her. However, she never accepted her fate and gradually took control of the situation. Her idea of ​​defying fate was to follow the laws of heaven and earth, change her own destiny, and seek the path to the top, rather than being controlled by fate.

After figuring all this out, a small sprout finally emerged from the Dao seed in Yunxi's heart, signifying the growth of her Dao heart. The aura around her also became much more peaceful, and her previously somewhat erratic mind, which had been affected by her rapid advancement, settled down.

The fairy spirit sensed it too. It shook its leaves and sent blue-green light into Yunxi's body to help her stabilize her cultivation after her enlightenment.

Although Dian Dian and Fei Xia didn't know what had happened, they saw the fairy spirit transferring spiritual power to its master, so they silently protected Yun Xi.

Yunxi's body instinctively began to circulate her cultivation technique, drawing the spiritual energy from the immortal spirit into her meridians. After circulating for one cycle, the energy returned to her dantian. The golden core in her dantian spun even faster, and the tender sprout of the Dao seed at her heart grew even greener under the nourishment of the pure spiritual energy.

An hour later, Yunxi opened her eyes and saw Diandian squatting on the ground looking up at her. She looked inward with her divine sense and found that her cultivation had been raised to the peak of the late Golden Core stage, just one step away from the Nascent Soul stage.

Yunxi then summoned Dian Dian and Fei Xia back to her side and transmitted her voice to the fairy spirit:

“Xianling, I understand what you’re saying. There are some things that I can’t interfere with right now, but I always believe that every cause has an effect, and you have to give up something to gain something.”

"I activated the spatial wooden plaque of the Witch Clan. In doing so, I preserved the cultivation resources left to me by my mother, as well as my spiritual root. Therefore, helping the Witch Clan leave this secret realm is the consequence I must bear."

The fairy spirit shook its leaves, understanding its master's meaning. There were some things it could only remind, but could not influence its master's decisions. Fortunately, its master was obedient and a principled cultivator, which was good enough.

Yunxi then transmitted her voice:

"Immortal Spirit, let's talk about your taking the spiritual vein. When did you take it? I didn't notice. What will happen to that jungle space after you take that spiritual vein?"

The fairy spirit hummed and hawed for a while before replying:

“Master, you said to wait until the Wu Clan members left before taking it. I only took the spiritual vein after you sent that old Wu Clan woman away. Moreover, I left a small portion of the spiritual vein, enough to keep the place running.”
