Chapter 8 The White Moonlight Leads to the Death of the Male and Female Protagonists (8)

Just as Jin Shu was immersed in the joy of her spiritual veins being restored, she suddenly felt a burning sensation in the palm of her hand that was supporting her on the ground.

Looking down, he saw that his hands were empty, but a red flower pattern had appeared in his palm.

Jin Shu recognized the flower; it was the wildflower that Meng Ling had picked and casually given to her.

The piercingly hot sensation gradually disappeared as the patterns on my palm faded.

Jin Shu's eyes lit up as she channeled her spiritual power.

A wisp of red light had appeared within the pure white spiritual energy that originally belonged to him.

This is a fire spirit root, one of the rarest types of spirit roots among the six meridians.

She never expected that a flower that Meng Ling picked casually could help her cultivate her spiritual root.

No wonder everyone in the dream said that Meng Ling had extraordinary luck and could encounter opportunities everywhere.

Jin Shu benefited from her this time.

There are still a few medicinal herbs that have not yet matured.

Jin Shu stared at it for a while, then harvested it without hesitation.

She can't use it, and neither can those people outside.

Just then, another "bang" sound came from outside the cave, presumably because Canglan was anxious to save his disciple and began to exert force.

Jin Shu's spiritual veins have just recovered, so her spiritual power is naturally incomparable to what it was before. If she were accidentally injured by Cang Lan, it would probably take a lot of effort to recover.

So she sat cross-legged in the cave and began to cultivate.

Whether the door opens or not is none of her business.

Half an hour later, the cave entrance beside them could not withstand Canglan's final blow and collapsed with a crash.

Canglan raised his sleeve to brush away the dust in front of him and stepped inside.

Then they saw an empty cave and Jin Shu sitting cross-legged to the side, cultivating.

"You harvested and refined all the spiritual herbs?"

Canglan's tone was tinged with anger.

He never expected that Jin Shu would actually disregard their camaraderie and keep the spiritual herb all to herself!

Facing him, Jin Shu looked at the coldness in his eyes and suddenly felt that she herself, who had once admired him, was quite ridiculous.

"They came with me to search for spiritual herbs. Now that we've found them, they're at my disposal. Is there any problem?"

"If you need it, you can use so many, but can't you spare a few to save your junior sister?"

"How serious are your injuries, Junior Sister? Can only a spiritual herb save you?"

As she spoke, Jin Shu walked up to Jing Ye, looked at Meng Ling curled up in his arms, grabbed her hand and rolled up her sleeve.

Two bluish-purple bruises were visible on her delicate arm. Jin Shu had witnessed that she had dodged very nimbly when the ferocious beast attacked, but her arm had been brushed by the beast's tail.

With Meng Ling's cultivation level, such a wound would heal before nightfall.

She actually lay there screaming all night.

Jin Shu sneered.

Meng Ling tried to pull her hand back, but she never expected that Jin Shu, whose spiritual veins had been completely destroyed, would still have such great strength.

She pouted and gave him a pep talk.

"Senior sister, it hurts."

"If you swallow the Blood-Activating Herb, you will recover in an hour."

After saying that, Jin Shu took out two Blood-Activating Grasses from her storage space, threw them to her, and then turned to look at Cang Lan.

“Master is getting old now, and his eyesight isn’t very good. He couldn’t even diagnose such a simple injury. It seems you’ll have to be more careful in the future.”

Jingye, upon hearing this, couldn't help but speak up.

"Junior sister, Master is just anxious. How can you talk back to him like that!"

"Senior brother, you should also remember to visit the Medicine Immortal to have your eyes checked in your spare time."

And Meng Ling, consider this my way of saving you today.

Remember this kindness; bring me more Spirit-Nourishing Herbs in the future to repay me.”

After saying what was on her mind, Jin Shu turned and left.

Previously, she always considered her status as the senior sister, and was tolerant and restrained at all times.

She no longer cares about those empty, rotten reputations.

She only cared about cultivating herself and living freely.

Stepping out of the cave and into the sunlight, Jin Shu felt an unprecedented sense of exhilaration.

With her spiritual veins restored, she once again felt the spiritual energy permeating the world.

She wanted to cultivate, she wanted to make up for all the time she had wasted before!

She could no longer be imprisoned and ravaged because of her weakness, as she had in her dreams, and the only way she could resist was by committing suicide.

Thinking of this, Jin Shu almost couldn't wait and sat on Feiyun, intending to leave.

Feiyun cried out loudly in the air, sensing its master's joy and relief. Feiyun, which had been sullen, became much more lively.

Because the spiritual veins had been restored, Jin Shu, who now possessed some spiritual power, immediately transferred some of it to Fei Yun.

Although Feiyun is a crane, its lifespan is limited.

To prolong one's lifespan, one needs to channel spiritual energy into the master.

Over the years, due to Jin Shu's defeat, Fei Yun has become much more haggard and aged. His hair is not as smooth as before, and his flying speed is much slower.

The flying cloud, now imbued with spiritual power, was overjoyed. It rushed into the clouds, circled once, and finally sped up to carry its master to Kunlun Immortal Mountain.

The celestial realm is divided into seven mountains, five peaks, and four seas.

Kunlun is one of the seven immortal mountain ranges, guarded by four immortal venerables who jointly govern the four branches of Kunlun.

The Four Peaks are four mountains with the most abundant spiritual energy.

The Immortal Venerable Canglan governs a lineage, along with the surrounding immortal mountains, large and small.

Jin Shu, as the senior disciple, occupies an entire immortal mountain by herself.

Of course, the mountain would soon no longer belong to her.

The Kunlun Trial, held once every five years, is about to begin, and the winner of the trial can choose a sacred mountain.

Different sacred mountains possess different spiritual energies, so the progress of cultivation naturally varies as well.

Jin Shu now lives in the second-class immortal mountain that she encountered in the trial competition five years ago.

Now that her spiritual veins have been destroyed, naturally some people are unhappy that she continues to live on a second-class immortal mountain.

In her dream, she was attacked by a group of people, and many of her fellow disciples chose her as their first target.

The final result was predictable.

She suffered a crushing defeat, and the sacred mountain was handed over to others.

Whom did it belong to? Naturally, it belonged to Meng Ling, the female protagonist of this novel.

Jin Shu couldn't understand why every time Meng Ling stood out, it was accompanied by her own tragedy.

In the novel, she is described as an arrogant and haughty high-ranking immortal, the white moonlight in the eyes of male characters.

The female protagonist exists to break down the outdated and backward theory of the immortal race as a superior race.

Therefore, she was defeated by the female lead during the trial. Meng Ling even let her have a few moves, but facing the genius female lead with six spiritual roots, even if Jin Shu used all her magical artifacts, she still suffered a crushing defeat.

In the end, she gave her fairy mountain to Meng Ling.

Jingye and the others came to comfort her, saying that it was better for the Immortal Mountain to be given to Meng Ling than to be taken away by the disciples of other Immortal Venerables. At least, Meng Ling was her junior sister and fellow disciple.

Exchanging immortal mountains among fellow disciples is not a loss at all.

Fortunately, Jin Shu thought this made sense at the time, and coupled with her pride and arrogance, she moved out of the second-class immortal mountain without saying a word.

According to the list, she huddled in the smallest and most barren fairy mountain in Kunlun.

The mountain was almost barren, devoid of spiritual energy, and even the sun was rarely seen.

Thinking of all this, Jin Shu gritted her teeth inwardly.

This time, she must at least protect her sacred mountain.
