Chapter 236 Encountering Another Strange Tree
"..." Mu Qingxin's face twitched when she heard Shuxin's explanation. So it's your fault!
Mu Qingxin looked at the tree heart speechlessly, "If you have nothing to do, why do you dig your roots so deep?" Not only did they dig deep, but they also pierced the ground film and almost let the goblins run away... It turned out that as early as more than a hundred years ago, the capital star almost died.
Mu Qingxin looked at the dull tree heart. "Logically speaking, you've grown for over a thousand years and absorbed goblins. Shouldn't your vitality be very strong? How come you're already withering after just over a hundred years?" How could it wither after absorbing such a tonic from goblins? It shouldn't be like this!
“…Uh…well…”
"Hmm?" Mu Qingxin raised an eyebrow and looked at Shuxin, who was mumbling silently, "Why?"
"Well... it seems... I can't absorb the goblins..." Shuxin said in a low voice with a guilty conscience.
"What? Say it again, I didn't hear it clearly!" Mu Qingxin scratched her ears, feeling that she had heard it wrong.
"...After all, goblins are naturally formed. From the moment the planet was formed..."
"Don't talk about those useless things. Let's make it short. I don't understand those things!" Mu Qingxin interrupted Shuxin and said, don't tell her about how the goblins were formed and their history. It's too long. She didn't see it with her own eyes. She is still underground and the air is thin. She can't imagine it.
"..." The tree heart was choked by Mu Qingxin's words, and finally said weakly and aggrievedly, "After all, I'm just a small sapling that has only grown for a thousand years. I have absorbed the goblin essence that has been contained for tens of thousands of years. I have been able to hold on until now without exploding. I have done my best for mankind. I admire myself!"
"..." Mu Qingxin held her forehead. It was over. How could she meet such a funny guy again? "Then why didn't you tell me that you poked the roots of the goblin's home. He was sleeping soundly, but you destroyed his home and he was facing the end of disappearing. You swallowed him up in one gulp. Now there is not even a trace left..."
Shuxin was speechless after hearing what Mu Qingxin said. It seemed to be true. After all, it was still its fault. Alas, it was useless to say anything now. It had become like this. What could it do!
Mu Qingxin looked at the tree heart that had stopped talking and was becoming even darker, and suddenly she wanted to laugh. How unlucky he was! How could he encounter such a weird thing!
The destruction of a planet is such a serious matter, a matter of life and death for the entire planet. Why is she so amused now? Why is this flaming tree so funny? Apparently, it's still proud of having survived the goblins for over a hundred years without bursting.
"Tell me, how can I help you?" Mu Qingxin checked the time and found that the optical computer wouldn't start. Oh, right, this is underground, and the signal and everything are blocked. I don't know how much time has passed. I don't know if mom and grandma have returned yet. I don't know if my third brother has noticed that I'm not home...
"Can you pass some of your spiritual energy to me? Then I will be able to absorb the goblins..." said the tree heart expectantly.
"My spiritual energy?" Mu Qingxin asked doubtfully. Her spiritual energy was only in her dantian, in her natal bead. It would not come out without her permission. How could it sense that she had spiritual energy?
"Hmm, there's a very fragrant and comfortable smell on your body, and a lot of spiritual energy..." A tree root touched Mu Qingxin's arm, and the tree heart said longingly.
"Spiritual energy?" Mu Qingxin looked down at her body. No, she couldn't sense any spiritual energy through her mental power. It was normal. Her natal bead was also fine.
"Yes, you may not be aware of it yourself, but the spiritual energy emanating from you is extremely tempting to the exotic beasts and plants. However, you also carry a terrifying aura. It must be that aura that suppresses the exotic beasts and plants from attacking you."
"A terrifying aura?!" The more Mu Qingxin listened, the more she felt that there were so many things about her that she didn't know about!
"Yes, but that aura is not mature yet, so it doesn't pose a threat to me. In the future, that may not be the case! You are very lucky. You have the protection of the owner of this aura, so you are safe."
Hearing this, Mu Qingxin's heart was relieved. She had just been thinking, what if she was attacked and devoured by a powerful alien beast or plant while out and about? Fortunately, there was that aura, but who was the owner of that aura?
Yaya, who was sleeping in Mu Qingxin's space, shook her head, "It's me! It's me! It's me!"
"Well...how do you want me to pass on the spiritual energy you just mentioned to you?" Mu Qingxin asked.
When Shuxin heard this, his eyes immediately brightened. "You agree?"
Mu Qingxin nodded helplessly, "Of course, otherwise how could I watch the capital planet disappear? There are so many people, and the capital planet has such a high civilization, it would be such a pity to disappear..." The most important thing is that this is the place where my father and mother have lived since they were young. If it disappears, they will definitely be sad.
"Thank you, thank you, child!" Tree Heart said gratefully, "You held me in your hands, then channeled the spiritual energy in your body and transferred it to me."
After hearing this, Mu Qingxin nodded and understood that she still needed to draw out the spiritual energy in her body.
Mu Qingxin walked forward, took the tree core next to the flame, and looked at the burning flame in confusion, "Why does this flame keep burning?"
"This is my strange fire. The Blazing Flame Tree is a fire-type plant with powerful fire abilities. This is my strange fire. Because I'm surrounded by humans, and they've been protecting me, I separated the strange fire and placed it here to prevent it from accidentally harming humans..."
"Won't it go out?" Mu Qingxin looked at the strange fire of the Flame Tree curiously.
"It can be extinguished. It's under my control. I can make it burn and extinguish it at will. It's burning now because I'm afraid you won't see it. After all these years, this is the first time it's burning today..."
“…You use your strange fire for lighting, haha.” How did she encounter such a big weird tree?! What a waste of nature!
"Uh..." Shu Xin heard the dissatisfaction in Mu Qingxin's words, thought for a moment, and said, "Do you want my strange fire? If you want, I can give it to you. I don't have any use for it anyway."
Mu Qingxin was excited when she heard it, "Is it okay?" Strange fire!
"Of course you can, but I don't have the strength to introduce it into your body right now. I need your spiritual energy..."
"Okay! Okay! Come on, I'm starting!" Mu Qing's heart was pounding, she was extremely excited, strange fire, strange fire, she didn't expect to get another strange fire on this trip today, great!!!
