Chapter 143 Looking for Treasures

Bai Bai tilted his head and thought for a moment, "I sensed it right where you fought the big snake."

Lin Xiaoman's eyes lit up. The green-scaled python was there. She still remembered its approximate location. She would wait until the day she could act alone, and then she would take Baibai and Tuanzi to take a look.

Any place with a lot of spiritual energy that can be sensed by treasure-hunting mice must contain treasures.

Lin Xiaoman was so excited that he couldn't help getting excited when he thought that there would be many treasures waiting for him. He wasted several pieces of talisman paper before he calmed down.

In the evening, Lin Xiaoman was not idle either. He first spent an hour drawing talismans to replenish some of the talismans used during the day, and then he began to practice.

It’s true that the spiritual energy of the Misty Forest is very rich, especially since they are currently located near the center of the Misty Forest.

After a night of practice, although his cultivation level did not improve significantly, it was still visible to the naked eye. Lin Xiaoman was in a good mood. Thinking about the place that Bai Bai had sensed, he immediately prepared a pot of noodles cooked with the meat of a fourth-level monster, which was delicious in color, aroma and taste.

This time, Lin Xiaoman did not take the noodles out to eat. He stayed in the tent with Tuanzi and Baibai, each with a small stool, slurping down the noodles, looking very happy.

For the next period of time, Lin Xiaoman followed his teammates out to hunt monsters every day. It was tiring and dangerous, but he could also truly feel the growth of his strength and the improvement of his cultivation.

Moreover, he could get the meat of a fourth-level monster almost every day, and even got the meat of a fifth-level monster during that period.

No one else in the team had any idea about food, but Chen Shuyan would occasionally come to her place to eat. After a long time, Lin Xiaoman found that Chen Shuyan was quite interesting.

That day, she learned a piece of news from Chen Shuyan.

"Finally, I can take a break. I'm really exhausted."

Chen Shuyan grabbed a skewer of barbecue, took a big bite of it, and let out a long sigh.

"Can we take a break?"

Lin Xiaoman was very surprised and asked quickly.

Chen Shuyan rolled his eyes at her as if she were an idiot. "Of course we can rest. We're not puppets."

"Oh~ How long can I rest? What can I do during the rest time?"

"You can rest five days a month and do whatever you want. You can even go into the Misty Forest to fight monsters. How about that? Junior Sister Lin, do you want to team up with us?"

Lin Xiaoman blinked and formed a team again. They had already rested, but they still had to go fight monsters. Aren’t you tired?

She shook her head. "No, I need to rest well, or find something my pet would like to eat."

Chen Shuyan was a little disappointed. This Junior Sister Lin was completely different from the average talisman cultivator, especially since she was so wealthy. Whenever she fought, her talismans flew everywhere like scattered flowers. Such a generous talisman cultivator's influence in battle was enormous.

"Okay, then you should take a good rest for these five days."

Three days later, Lin Xiaoman was delighted when he heard Captain Li Qingshan's words about rest, as he could finally act alone.

Back in his tent, Lin Xiaoman called out Baibai, "Baibai, do you still remember the place where you sensed the rich spiritual energy?"

"Squeak, remember."

"Great, we'll go look for it tomorrow. If it's too dangerous, we'll come back. If it's okay, we'll go explore. Maybe there's treasure there."

"good."

The next morning, Lin Xiaoman packed up his things, made all the necessary preparations, and quietly left the camp with Baibai and Tuanzi.

Lin Xiaoman still remembered the place where they hunted the Qinglin Python. They had a peaceful journey and did not encounter any monsters. Mainly because there were almost no monsters within a ten-mile radius around the camp. They had all been killed by them or scared away.

After arriving at the place, Lin Xiaoman dared to let Baibai out, "Baibai, can you sense it here?"

Holding the treasure-hunting rat in his hand, Lin Xiaoman asked softly.

Baibai turned around and jumped out of her palm, disappearing in a blink of an eye. After a while, he ran back and called out to Lin Xiaoman excitedly.

"Master, Master, it's just in front, I can sense it."

Lin Xiaoman was delighted and hurriedly followed. Baibai was running in front and she followed behind. They ran all the way and soon arrived at the foot of a cliff.

"Master, it's just ahead, there's so much spiritual energy."

Lin Xiaoman followed and looked up along Baibai's line of sight. She saw a spiritual plant with green leaves and purple flowers hanging in the air on the cliff in front of her. She squinted her eyes and took a closer look, and was stunned.

"ah!"

That's... that's... no way? Is that what she thought? Golden-veined ginseng? A fourth-tier spiritual plant?

Oh my god!

It is said that after taking golden ginseng, one can greatly improve his cultivation level without any side effects.

Lin Xiaoman only felt her heart beating faster. Oh my God, this thing is especially suitable for her. If she takes this, she can at least jump to the ninth level of Qi Refining Stage and be even closer to Foundation Establishment Stage.

However, the next moment, Lin Xiaoman's enthusiasm dissipated a lot. The golden ginseng is a fourth-level spiritual plant. There must be guardian monsters around it, and that guardian monster is likely to be a fourth-level monster. She is alone now, and if she runs up rashly, she will only seek death.

"Baibai, come back soon."

Seeing that the treasure-hunting rat was about to run towards the cliff because of the temptation of spiritual energy, Lin Xiaoman hurriedly called out to stop it.

"squeak?"

Baibai looked back at her in confusion. Now that she had found the treasure, why didn't she pick it?

"There are powerful monsters guarding it. We can't defeat them."

Lin Xiaoman pointed upwards and spoke softly.

"Huh? But... no."

Baibai looked up in confusion, and couldn't help but look a few more times, but still found nothing.

"That's impossible! This is a fourth-level spiritual plant. How could there not be some monster beast guarding it? If it weren't for some monster beast guarding it, it would have been devoured by other monster beasts long ago. How could we have had a chance to eat it?"

Although Lin Xiaoman believed Bai Bai, he still felt it was illogical and couldn't help but say.

While touching the mark on his wrist, he called Tuanzi out, "Tuanzi, help me see if there are any big monsters nearby?"

Tuanzi squinted his eyes, lazily jumped onto Lin Xiaoman's shoulders, stretched, and sensed it, "Huh? That spiritual plant has quite a bit of spiritual energy."

But there are no big monsters nearby.

Lin Xiaoman was stunned when she heard what Tuanzi said, her heart pounding. Could it be that she had really struck it big? Was there really no demonic beast guarding her? Was this fourth-tier spiritual plant about to become hers?!

"No way? Really?"

As she spoke, she had already walked towards the cliff. Since there was no monster guarding it, she had to get the spiritual plant as soon as possible. She even wanted to swallow it immediately to increase her cultivation.

"I didn't sense it. This area is very clean."

Tuanzi looked around and found that there were indeed no other monsters around.

"Great, I'll go pick this golden ginseng."
