Chapter 74 The transplanted flowers, born from the spiritual energy revival, have begun to propagate! ...

The Taotie had never made such a panicked sound before.

The system and Qianchuan rushed over almost instantly.

"What's wrong!?"

The Suanni hurriedly cried out, "Little Jiu's eyes! Eyes!"

Xiao Jiu tilted her head slightly back, as if she were looking at something.

Therefore, from Qianchuan's perspective, it is clear that Xiao Jiu's eyes suddenly lost their whites, and her entire eyeballs turned black.

System: "Vital signs normal, bioenergy normal, normal, normal, everything normal."

The system was going crazy: "How can this be normal?!"

It slammed its spherical tail violently to the ground, creating a crater in the soil.

The force of the smash was so great that it shook the surface of the lake next to it.

Ripples spread across the water, causing the nightingales and water lilies on the lake to sway slightly.

In a flash, the specks of light on the water lily petals detached from the petals and flew up.

The specks of light were like a swarm of startled fireflies, floating lightly into the air and then swirling and drifting in all directions.

Those specks of light should have landed on the surrounding lotus leaves, but just as they were about to fall, they seemed to be attracted by something and floated straight toward the shore.

The Suanni shouted, "Look!"

Everyone looked in the direction he indicated, and then they saw a strange scene.

Several points of light were flying towards them from the water's surface, while around the canopy of the elven tree on the other side, the red mist was also falling towards the tree.

Judging from their appearance, they seem to be drifting over here as well.

Qianchuan suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said, "That water lily's special property, the harmonizing one! Xiao Jiu has been affected by it!"

Everyone was taken aback.

Was Xiao Jiu affected?

Qian Chuan spoke rapidly: "Xiao Jiu and the system are both bound to this world. At first, the system could control the blood mist, and Xiao Jiu could also absorb the blood mist to 'cultivate,' but later the system changed!"

Suanni then added, "But Xiao Jiu hasn't changed!"

"That's right!"

The system and Xiao Jiu are one, as are this spirit tree and even this world.

Although spiritual energy existed in this world in the past, the system had no way to control it.

Therefore, it is normal that Xiao Jiu can only absorb blood mist and expel spiritual energy.

Not long ago, the two worlds merged, and the system said it could run the corresponding modules of spiritual energy. There's no reason why Xiao Jiu is still the same as before.

Looking back on the past, they also noticed a problem.

Xiao Jiu used to not eat anything, but over the past ten years, the amount of vegetables she has consumed is not small.

Those vegetables were not ordinary things, but spiritual plants.

Although this amount of spiritual energy is pitifully small for the Suanni of Qianchuan, it is roughly equivalent to the effect of a few vegetables or some low-grade spiritual pills for ordinary human cultivators.

Xiao Jiu ate so many spiritual plants, where did all that spiritual energy go?

Suanni Qianchuan and the others couldn't figure it out, and the system couldn't analyze it either.

Its entire body looked like it was about to melt, which looked very ominous.

Qian Chuan quickly reassured him, "System, didn't you always say that 'data never makes mistakes'?"

He looked at the system: "Perhaps, Xiao Jiu's condition is indeed normal. We should just stay by his side, just like when he first started absorbing the blood mist."

The system's body finally stopped melting.

After a long while, it replied: "...Okay."

As they were talking, the pale golden specks on the lake surface drifted up to Xiao Jiu.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, it didn't do anything like directly burrowing into Xiao Jiu's body; instead, it stopped there.

It seems they are waiting for something.

About half a minute later, wisps of red mist drifted over.

The red mist and specks of light intertwined and danced in the air, creating a mysterious rhythm, before slowly approaching Xiao Jiu.

This time, they were applied directly to Xiao Jiu's skin.

After a one-second pause, the light spots and red mist seeped into Xiao Jiu's skin at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

Based on past experience, Xiao Jiu should wake up soon.

But half an hour passed, then an hour passed...

Five hours later, Xiao Jiu was still in the same position, completely still.

At the same time, it showed no reaction to the outside world.

The system was filled with regret: "I should never have created this water lily thing, if only... if only..."

The system's voice was clearly choked with sobs, and the latter half of its words were mumbled and unclear.

Qianchuan and Suanni remained silent.

Suddenly, Taotie said, "Could it be that we don't have enough blood?"

Suanni: "What did you say?"

The Taotie's voice was no different from usual, so at this moment, it displayed an eerie calmness.

He said, "The last time Xiao Jiu absorbed the blood mist, it almost filled the entire red sky world with the smell of blood, but now there is very little blood mist."

According to the theory of cultivation, as one advances in cultivation level, the amount of spiritual energy required for cultivation increases.

Since Xiao Jiu absorbed so much blood mist last time, the amount of blood mist used this time should definitely not be less than this.

They looked toward the fairy tree on one side.

Sure enough, not a trace of red mist remained on the treetops.

Suanni frowned: "That shouldn't be the case. The red mist before was so much that it filled the entire spatial rift—wait a minute."

He looked up abruptly: "Could it be because this place has become a complete world plane, so the blood mist is constantly merging with the world!?"

As soon as Suanni finished speaking, a strong smell of blood suddenly wafted to his nose.

He turned his head and saw that the Taotie was slowly opening its mouth.

Taotie pulled its teeth from its hand; blood was still on the tips of its teeth.

He walked over to Xiao Jiu and placed his bleeding little paw on her body.

Blood gushed from the deep wound, and when it dripped onto Xiao Jiu's skin, it was absorbed instantly, as if it had hit a dry sponge.

Taotie rested its head on Xiao Jiu's hanging palm and gently rubbed it.

"Xiao Jiu is hungry."

He said sweetly, "Little Jiu will wake up after she's eaten her fill."

The system couldn't help but say, "But your body can't take it!"

Xiao Jiu absorbed such a large amount of blood mist last time. If she does this now, won't she be draining Taotie dry?

Just as Suanni and Qianchuan were about to strike their own hands, Taotie suddenly said, "Don't you remember this?"

As his voice faded, ripples appeared in the air.

It was like a giant net, instantly enveloping Suanni and Qianchuan.

The Suanni roared at the Taotie, but in just a moment, the Suanni's eyes, which were full of anger just a second ago, immediately became confused and dazed.

Then, he slowly closed his eyelids and fell into a deep sleep.

The air around Moon Lake is the purest in the entire world.

There is no wind in this world of eternal night, but when you come to the Moon Lake, you can clearly feel a refreshing breeze on your face.

Suanni and Qianchuan woke up with this feeling.

The Suanni yawned widely, revealing a set of tiny white teeth that looked like grains of rice.

Qianchuan propped himself up from the ground and sat up, rubbing the back of his neck.

Strange, I only took a nap, so why is my neck so stiff?

They often slept under the Elf Tree before the world was fully integrated. Even the Suanni, who was afraid of water, could not resist the comfortable feeling that was like cleansing one's marrow.

So whenever they had a spare moment, those few demonic beasts would come over for a short rest.

After the two worlds merged, their activities basically revolved around the Elf Tree, but they still retained the habit of taking afternoon naps.

Qianchuan stood up and greeted Suanni: "I'm going to check on the farmland."

The Suanni flicked its tail: "Go, go."

He gazed at the nightingales and water lilies in Moon Lake and muttered to himself, "Qian Chuan would definitely be awarded the Best Employee Award in the human world."

The world is in eternal night, and the nightingale and water lily, unaware of the sunlight, continue to bloom, like tireless dancers, spinning and dancing on the lake.

When Qianchuan arrived at the edge of the farmland, Xiao Jiu was sitting on a patch of net-like spirit flowers.

Because his back was turned, Qianchuan couldn't see what Xiao Jiu was doing, so he waited until he was right in front of her before speaking: "Xiao Jiu?"

Upon hearing the sound, Xiao Jiu immediately turned around. He was holding a Taotie that looked like a lump of black coal in his arms, as well as Xiao Xue, a spirit that had grown quite a bit.

Upon seeing Qianchuan, Xiao Jiu's face broke into a big smile: "Qianchuan."

Taotie waved its claws at him, while Xiaoxue let out a soft "meow".

Ke Qianchuan just stared blankly at Xiao Jiu's face.

His memory told him that Xiao Jiu had absorbed all the red mist around the Elf Tree not long ago and then advanced again. Now Xiao Jiu's physical reactions were much more agile and she could make normal expressions.

Therefore, it's normal for Xiao Jiu to be smiling happily.

But I always feel...

Just as Qianchuan's brain was about to detect this anomaly, a voice rang out behind him.

"Qianchuan".

Qianchuan turned around and saw it was the system.

The system, as usual, discussed the arrangements with him: "Fuyu and Xie Chuanfeng haven't returned yet, and we don't have enough manpower right now, so I think it's better not to upgrade the farmland level for the time being."

Qianchuan immediately followed the system's words and thought of the previous matter regarding farmland levels.

So he replied, "It seems the area of ​​level 8 farmland will expand further, right?"

System: "That's right, and the extent of the expansion far exceeds that of the past."

Qianchuan agreed: "Then let's upgrade it later, otherwise we'll really be too busy."

At this moment, Xiao Jiu came over.

His eyes were wide open, and with the corners of his mouth turned up, the feeling of happiness and joy almost overflowed from his face.

Holding a fluffy ball in each arm, Xiao Jiu said in a clear, childlike voice, "Qianchuan, the flower has grown up!"

Qianchuan hesitated for a moment: "Flowers?"

"Hmm!" Xiao Jiu nodded, then turned to look at the spot where she had been sitting: "The Spirit Flower has grown up, and the system says that spiritual energy has appeared as well."

Qianchuan followed the gaze.

Not far away stood a snow-white tree, several sizes smaller than the fairy tree on the mountaintop, but its trunk, branches, and even the soft white light it emitted were exactly the same as the fairy tree.

The tree was surrounded by a patch of dark brown soil, square in shape, just like the farmland produced by the system.

Beyond this square area, there are many flowers of different shapes and colors.

Qianchuan immediately noticed the few plants with white flowers.

It wasn't because the flower had any special magic, but because many tiny sprouts had actually emerged from the soil beneath it.

Those transplanted, spiritualized morning glories have begun to reproduce!

This means that the spiritual energy in this world has finally begun to form a cycle.

The spiritual energy revival has begun.
