"Does your Wuji Sect have a disciple surnamed Ouyang?" Su Qing asked.
The Wuji Sect disciple was slightly taken aback, then exclaimed in surprise, "You mean Senior Brother Ouyang? He's in too? I was in the second batch to enter the secret realm, and I've been here for more than ten days. Senior Brother Ouyang is probably in the third batch or even later."
"Strange, since your Wuji Sect knows this secret realm is dangerous, why did you still send so many ordinary disciples in?" Su Qing asked.
"It's just the loss of some peak Qi Refining stage disciples. We are all outer sect disciples, so even if we die, it won't matter to the Wuji Sect."
"That Ouyang is also an outer disciple?"
"Ranked fifteenth on the outer sect disciple list."
Su Qing looked at Mu Zihan, who was ranked fifteenth on the list of outer disciples of the Wuji Sect. Compared to the number one outer disciple of the Xuanling Sect, he was no match for him!
"Here is a Spirit Returning Pill. You only need to answer the last question, and I will give it to you," Su Qing said, pouring out a pill.
The Wuji Sect disciple's eyes were glued to the pill; he could already smell the fragrance of the third-grade healing pill.
"What exactly is this seventh-tier sand serpent guarding?" Su Qing stared into the eyes of the Wuji Sect disciple.
The Wuji Sect disciple's expression changed drastically. He looked at Su Qing and, after a long while, took a deep breath.
"Sea buckthorn dragon fruit tree".
Sea buckthorn dragon fruit tree!
Everyone's face showed surprise.
The Seabuckthorn Dragon Spirit Fruit Tree is a unique spirit fruit tree found only in the Gobi Desert. The Seabuckthorn Dragon Spirit Fruit that grows on this tree comes in five colors: white (metallic), blue (water), red (fire), green (wood), and yellow (earth). Some mutated Seabuckthorn Dragon Spirit Fruits can even produce wind, ice, and lightning attribute fruits.
After consuming it, it's not just about increasing spiritual power; this sea buckthorn dragon spirit fruit can stabilize your spiritual roots!
This means that it can improve a cultivator's aptitude.
Of course, this kind of sea buckthorn dragon spirit fruit also has limitations. It is only effective for cultivators in the Qi Refining stage. Once one has reached the Foundation Establishment stage, taking it will only increase the spiritual power of the body and will not achieve the effect of stabilizing the spiritual root.
Mu Zihan looked at Su Qing.
Su Qing looked somewhat bewildered.
"Su Qing, can the invisibility talisman fool a seventh-tier demon beast?" Mu Zihan asked.
Su Qing immediately knew what Mu Zihan was thinking.
Oh dear, she managed to pick all the Shi Luo Fruits right under the nose of the sixth-tier demon beast, the Nine Nether Profound Python, in the back mountain of the Xuanling Sect using an invisibility talisman. This incident has made her quite famous in the Xuanling Sect.
Mu Zihan was thinking of using the Invisibility Talisman to see if he could pick the Seabuckthorn Dragon Spirit Fruit.
Su Qing quickly shook her head.
"The Nine Nether Profound Python only has one head, so it might be possible to try using a stealth talisman, but a seven-tier five-headed sand serpent definitely won't fall for that."
Mu Zihan frowned.
He didn't want to let it go like that. After all, those were sea buckthorn dragon spirit fruits that could improve one's aptitude. Even eating just one would bring immense benefits in the future.
However, he couldn't bring himself to risk his life for the sake of the spiritual fruit.
Mu Zihan and his group frowned and racked their brains for a solution. A disciple of the Wuji Sect tugged at Su Qing's sleeve and said, "The Spirit Returning Pill."
Su Qing tossed the Spirit Returning Pill over and said, "Thank you for the news."
The Wuji Sect disciple held the Guiling Pill, swallowed it, and began to heal his injuries by sitting cross-legged.
It seems I've been spared for now.
In fact, this Wuji Sect disciple did not want to reveal the news about the Seabuckthorn Dragon Spirit Fruit, but Su Qing was extremely perceptive and used the Returning Spirit Pill as bait.
He was already seriously injured, and in order to survive, he had no choice but to speak.
Mu Zihan and the others ignored the Wuji Sect disciple and headed towards the seabuckthorn dragon spirit fruit tree.
From afar, you can see a towering boulder that seems to reach into the clouds.
That's probably the place the Wuji Sect disciples were talking about.
"Let's stop here for now," Mu Zihan said, taking a small gadget out of his storage bag.
Upon closer inspection, Su Qing realized it was a puppet.
Su Qing had fought against puppets when she was on the Heavenly Ladder. Although those puppets were all made by Uncle He, a disciple of Crimson Shadow Peak.
Those puppets were all combat puppets. Although they looked fierce, they were actually only at the level of a second or third-level weapon refiner.
The puppet that Mu Zihan had taken out was clearly a reconnaissance puppet.
Not only is it very small, only the size of a palm, but it is also agile and its shape is not human, but rather that of a mouse.
"I'll send the puppets over to check the situation first, and then we'll make a decision," Mu Zihan said, releasing more than a dozen of these reconnaissance puppets.
"Wenyou Turtle, bring out your spirit beast to scout around as well," Mu Zihan said to one of the cultivators at the peak of the Qi Refining stage.
Wen Yougui was unremarkable in appearance and rarely spoke in the group, but his barbecue was quite delicious, so Su Qing had some impression of him.
He then took out a spirit beast cage. After the cage grew larger, Su Qing could see clearly that it contained a hundred first-tier green wood rats.
These green wood rats are very common; they can often be seen in the forests of the Xuanling Sect.
I never imagined I'd be raising so many Wenyou turtles.
“Junior Brother Wen is skilled in beast taming. These green wood rats are all tamed, which makes them very convenient for reconnaissance activities,” Mu Zihan explained to Su Qing.
Su Qing saw Wen Yougui release the Green Wood Rats, which then scattered and followed the reconnaissance puppet in groups of three or five.
Su Qing's eyes lit up.
She had learned a little bit about beast taming in her previous life.
But that's just the tip of the iceberg.
In her previous life, she was trapped in the Gobi Desert and only obtained a book on basic beast taming techniques. After learning it, she found that catching monsters was not difficult and controlling low-level monsters was also simple. However, these monsters needed to be fed, and she simply could not afford that.
The Xuanling Sect is much better; a single outer disciple at the peak of the Qi Refining stage can raise over a hundred Green Wood Rats.
Don't underestimate these green wood rats; they eat quite a lot of spirit rice every day.
Speaking of beast taming, Su Qing couldn't help but take out the pendant to examine it.
Inside the transparent pendant, the little green snake remained quietly coiled, fast asleep.
This guy can really sleep!
Su Qing looked at it for a while before tucking the pendant back into her clothes.
A crystal ball was placed in front of Mu Zihan. Through the crystal ball, he could see the outside world from the puppet's perspective.
At this moment, the puppet and the green wood rat continued walking forward, only to be met with the yellow sand of the Gobi Desert.
After about two hours, the puppet and the green wood rat finally arrived near the boulder.
"Is that the Seabuckthorn Dragon Spirit Fruit Tree?" Mu Zihan looked at the crystal ball.
On the crystal ball, you can see a shallow puddle next to the boulder, and the water in the puddle is crystal clear.
Beside the puddle stood a thorny tree over two meters tall, laden with hundreds of fruits of various colors, which looked extremely tempting.
Su Qing stared at the seabuckthorn dragon spirit fruit tree, feeling her heart pounding.
