Zhu Yi sat on the Crane Feather Flying Vehicle, feeling a little hungry.
She took out a vegetable rice ball from the jade food box. The rice ball was filled with roasted chicken and slices of roasted fish.
A rice ball with just the right amount of salt and spice, paired with a braised egg, and a bamboo tube of boiled water—it's a truly satisfying and blissful meal.
The jade food box was indeed her essential mobile granary when she went out!
Hehe, luckily Zhu Yi prepared a lot of food for herself before the trip: vegetable rice balls, roast chicken, roast fish, braised eggs, and small steamed buns... She also boiled several pots of water and put them in a large water tank to take with her...
Zhu Yi now finds even the ferocious demonic blood flowers below the aircraft adorable!
After a short rest, Zhu Yi was surprised to find that she had already reached the seventh level of Qi Refining when she woke up. It felt so good to advance to the next level after just one fight!
So, Zhu Yi found the layers of little red flowers pleasing to the eye again. Practice makes perfect, and practice elevates one's understanding.
Hearing the words of the little baby in her mind, Zhu Yi did not go down directly to fight the Demon Blood Flowers this time. Instead, she carefully observed the clusters of flowers and found the flower leader.
However, this flower leader was different from what she had imagined. She thought the leader of the Demon Blood Flower would be a large red flower, but she didn't expect it to be a little one.
The Demon Blood Flower is not large; when the whole plant stands upright, it is about the size of a calligraphy brush, and the small pointed tip in the middle of the petals is no larger than a goose egg.
The flower leader, hidden among the flowers, was smaller in stature, and Zhu Yi also noticed the flower leader's little green leaf.
Sure enough, a leader has to be different from everyone else.
Just like the iconic scepter held by the mermaid leader in a dream, it is particularly eye-catching.
Zhu Yi glanced at her small brass pocket watch. It was 4:30 in the morning, half an hour before her usual wake-up time. She could go down and fight for a while longer.
Many Demon Blood Flowers have already gathered outside the trapping formation.
Zhu Yi twitched her lips: It wouldn't matter if she took the opportunity to escape on the Crane Feather Flying Vehicle now, but the little baby also said she wanted the Dark Red Crystal of the Demon Blood Flower, and she still needed to collect a bagful to hand over.
Although she doesn't know what the little baby voice in her head is, she figured it probably isn't anything bad!
In the end, Zhu Yi decided to go down into the trap and fight her way through, and also practice the fourth move of the "Morning Clouds and Evening Rain" sword technique in actual combat.
Zhu Yi flipped down, and when the Demon Blood Flower saw someone getting off the flying vehicle, its flower nest instantly boiled with excitement!
"Ugh, you despicable monk, you've trapped us here waiting for the sun!"
"Yes, yes, all we wanted was a sip of your blood to fill our stomachs, and you actually wanted the lives of us brave warriors!"
"You want to drink my blood, and I can't even protect myself?" Zhu Yi laughed angrily, then sighed innocently, "I didn't want your lives! You would have vanished on your own with one sword strike, what does that have to do with me?"
"Ah! You human cultivators are too cunning!" The Demon Blood Flowers swarmed forward, but this time Zhu Yi didn't directly deal with these boring little red flowers. Instead, she quickly and ruthlessly set up a protective barrier around herself. Su Fangse's earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magic or magic) rose from the ground, blocking the Demon Blood Flowers from Zhu Yi's path.
Zhu Yi strode forward, unleashing the fourth move of the Morning Clouds and Evening Rain technique, heading straight for the Flower Leader.
"Tch! You vicious human cultivator! I'm so cute, and you not only refuse to give me blood, but you also dare to hurt me?" A delicate and soft female voice rang out, and the surrounding demonic blood flowers were about to explode. How dare they ambush our flower leader?
"Flower Warriors! Let's attack together and drain this man's blood!" The Demon Blood Flower's shrill voice roared at Zhu Yi.
While using earth elemental energy to create a shield for herself, Zhu Yi infused the Morning Dew Sword with metal elemental energy, practicing the fourth new sword technique step by step.
This feels good, really good. On this morning when the sun is about to rise, Zhu Yi is practicing his sword diligently, using the delicate and beautiful leader as a training tool.
"Practicing swordsmanship with your Demon Blood Flowers is much better than the sect's trial formation!" Zhu Yi happily boasted to the Demon Blood Flowers.
The Blood Demon Flowers were furious, but they couldn't do anything about it, so they started yelling and screaming.
"Junior Sister, are you practicing swordsmanship?" Xue Shan looked at Zhu Yi's somewhat clumsy use of the fourth sword move and admired her.
She simply got off the aircraft and joined Zhu Yi's sword practice.
However, before Xue Shan could even get a foothold, she saw a withered old vine tree with a ghostly face suddenly appear outside the trapping array barrier.
The old vine tree stretched out its tendrils and struck heavily, shattering the trapping array that had been running for half the night. Dark green vines slithered across the ground and swiftly wrapped around Zhu Yi and Xue Shan, trapping them beside it.
Wei Weiwei, who was on the aircraft, also woke up when the trapping array barrier broke. Upon seeing this, she quickly used her last three fire talismans and her last two slow talismans.
The igniting talisman landed amidst the demonic blood flowers and burned fiercely. The slowing talisman was knocked off the old vine tree before it could even touch it. The vine then extended, binding Wei Weiwei, who was on the flying vehicle, as well.
"So it's just a bunch of you who dare to bully my little flower?" The old vine tree's dry, hoarse voice was as rough as a knife being sharpened, its authoritative and domineering tone filled with deep displeasure.
"Lord Demon Vine! Lord Demon Vine, you've finally arrived!"
"Wow~ Lord Demon Vine, you've come at just the right time! My flower companions were all killed by this female cultivator! You have to help us get revenge!"
"These three female cultivators are trying to trap us here, waiting for the sun to rise before continuing to kill us. How cunning! Waaah~"
"Hmph! The villain is the one who accuses first! Why don't you ask your Demon Blood Flower if it wants to drink our blood?" Zhu Yi was a little unhappy, but was not intimidated by the old vine tree that appeared out of nowhere.
Although Zhu Yi knew that this old vine tree's cultivation was much stronger than that of these demonic blood flowers!
Undeterred, she began forming hand seals with her hands, which were trapped behind the old vine tree. Su Fangse's earthy spiritual energy circulated again, causing it to sink from the spot where the old vine tree stood.
"Still dare to resist?" The old vine tree was enraged, and its tendrils tightened.
Zhu Yi, Xue Shan, and Wei Weiwei all suffered from severe abdominal pain due to it.
Zhu Yi's forehead immediately broke out in a cold sweat and a sharp pain: "Hey, old vine tree, you better not cling to me too tightly, or I have a powerful master to help me! If you bully me too much, I'll burn you as firewood later!"
"Tch! Little girl, you're so arrogant!" The old vine tree was not intimidated by Zhu Yi at all. Instead, it increased its strength and pushed the three of them into the middle of the Demon Blood Flower.
A rough, aged voice gently rang out: "Children, come and eat!"
"We've been working hard all night fixing these three people. Let's go back to sleep after we finish eating!"
Zhu Yi looked up at the sky; it was a hazy, reddish-brown sky, with no sign of the sun rising.
"I! Ah~" Zhu Yi's delicate calf was bitten hard by the leader of the Demon Blood Flower. The place where the demonic plant bit her was in excruciating pain. Zhu Yi couldn't help but howl out.
Xue Shan and Wei Wei were also in pain, but they didn't appear as ferocious as Zhu Yi.
On the contrary, the old vine tree was shocked by Zhu Yi's sudden outburst: "You little brat, weren't you very powerful just now? Why are you shouting so loudly now? Aren't you afraid of attracting other cultivators nearby?"
Actually, Zhu Yi wasn't in as much pain as she appeared. She just felt terrible about these demonic blood flowers getting close to her and sucking her blood!
She tried again to form hand seals, hoping to unleash a few Buddhist fire spells to burn the old vine tree.
But... her hands were wrapped up like a rice dumpling by the vines of the old vine tree, making it impossible for her to form hand seals...
More and more demonic blood flowers appeared on her legs, and they all climbed up and took a bite. Before long, Zhu Yi's pants were stained bright red.
Zhu Yi felt a chill run down her spine, and despair welled up inside her. It was all over; she really couldn't win this time!
"Oh, you idiot! My master is so stupid!"
The little baby's exasperated voice suddenly rang out, and it was about to get angry at Zhu Yi!
