Chapter 102 Searching for the Spiritual Medicine Valley
Ning Xuan sat cross-legged in meditation to refine the pure energy that did not belong to her. Lin Mo was extremely anxious. He didn't know what Ning Xuan's condition was, but his realm was severely suppressed and the protective barrier could hardly be maintained.
It's unknown when the turbulent energy field outside will calm down. Once the barrier disappears, they will be exposed to the turbulent energy field. I have thick skin and flesh, so it's no problem. But Ning Xuan is a woman, how can she bear it?
Just as Lin Mo was worried and frightened, spider-web-like cracks suddenly appeared on the surface of the barrier, and the turbulent energy field condensed into a cyclone outside the barrier, making a sharp hissing sound that hurt people's eardrums.
Lin Mo drank another bottle of energy replenishment potion, mobilized all the energy in his body, and input it into the barrier. However, his strength was too suppressed by the secret realm. He tried every possible way, but still could not maintain the barrier.
When the protective barrier was shattered, the man who was almost swallowed by the Soul-Devouring Flower suddenly appeared in front of them and protected Ning Xuan with a transparent cover.
Lin Mo was torn apart by the turbulent energy field and felt like he was in an interstellar storm. Although his realm was suppressed, his strong physique was not affected. Amid the intense tearing sensation, he could feel that the turmoil in the energy field was gradually subsiding. At the same time, the energy around Ning Xuan's body also slowly stabilized.
Ning Xuan opened her eyes, feeling the warm and soft seat beneath her. She looked down and saw the white tiger that she saw in Lin Mo's spiritual sea. The white tiger was looking at Ning Xuan with its amber eyes. There seemed to be a worry in the depths of its pupils. Ning Xuan looked up and saw Lin Mo covered in blood, standing five meters away. The stranger who was almost swallowed by the Soul-Devouring Flower was standing opposite Lin Mo.
At this time, the energy field riot had subsided, and the ghost-faced red mist that was swirling in the cracks in the ground shrank back into a black seed and returned to Ning Xuan's palm. Ning Xuan could feel that the ghost-faced red vine had fallen into a dormant state after devouring a large amount of energy from the Soul-Devouring Flower Core. In the short term, it was likely that it would no longer be able to charge into battle for her.
"Miss, thank you for saving my life just now. My name is Leng Yue. I paid for a place to come to the secret realm to hunt for treasure. You saved me, and I am willing to stay with you to repay you for saving my life." Leng Yue saw Ning Xuan wake up and stepped forward to bow.
Lin Mo looked at him with great fear. He felt in his heart that this man had bad intentions. However, this man had just taken out an extremely precious energy shield to protect Ning Xuan, which made Lin Mo hesitate about his intuition.
Ning Xuan looked at the mess in the valley. Those crystallized plants had been contaminated by the energy of the Soul-Devouring Flower's core and thus had the medicinal properties of the Soul-Devouring Flower. They should not be missed.
"Since you want to repay me for saving your life, just go and help me collect all the crystallized plants in the valley." Ning Xuan said, and took the lead to walk towards those crystal clear plants.
With the help of Lin Mo and Leng Yue, Ning Xuan quickly put all the crystallized plants into the space hub. This trip was not in vain, not only did she get a substitute for the Soul-Eating Flower, but she also gained a great opportunity with the Ghost-Faced Red Vine.
After Ning Xuan and others cleaned up the valley where the Soul-Devouring Flower Vine was located, they left.
"You have repaid the favor of saving your life, and it's time for you to leave." Ning Xuan looked at Leng Yue who was following behind her and reminded her.
Leng Yue, who had a very three-dimensional face and looked very noble, laughed after hearing what Ning Xuan said, "Miss Ning, how can a small matter like that just now be compared to the grace of saving my life? Don't worry, I am sincere and want to repay you. I have absolutely no bad intentions towards you. This secret realm is full of dangers. It is too dangerous for me to go alone. I feel much safer with you."
"Since you know that this secret realm is full of dangers, why did you come in alone?" Ning Xuan couldn't figure out this person's intentions, but intuitively, she felt that he had no ill intentions.
"Isn't this just ignorance of the immensity of the world? The main thing is that my original strength was good enough, but the broken rules of this Lingxiao Secret Realm suppressed my realm too much." Speaking of this, Leng Yue was very depressed. He had been to this Lingxiao Secret Realm before. Although it did suppress the mental realm to level B, as long as he was willing to pay some price, he could still improve his realm temporarily. However, this time, no matter what price he paid, it was useless. Moreover, the stronger his original strength was, the more severely he was suppressed.
Lin Mo nodded silently at the side. He had come to Lingxiao Secret Realm three years ago as a reward for military merit. That time when he entered the secret realm, it was indeed different from this time. Although his mental realm was also suppressed that time, he could still break through the suppression by thinking of a way. However, this time, under the rules of the secret realm, he felt that his strength seemed to be only B-level. He even felt that he was much stronger when he was at B-level than he is now.
"Then, who knows if you have bad intentions? Why should I take the risk of bringing you along?" Ning Xuan looked at Leng Yue with scrutiny.
"I, I can do a lot of things, for example, help you find out the situation, help you fight, help you work. In short, except for going to bed with you, I can do anything." Leng Yue raised one hand and said confidently.
Lin Mo's eyes flashed coldly, and he clenched his fists to hit him. Leng Yue jumped to the side and dodged the attack. "What are you doing? I know you are the contractor of this lady. I have already said that I will not sleep with you. Why are you so excited?"
Lin Mo's eyes were burning with anger. This bastard dared to talk nonsense, as if his family owner was targeting him and he was unwilling.
Ning Xuan watched the two of them chasing each other and fighting, and she became somewhat confident in the fighting ability shown by Leng Yue. If Leng Yue really wanted to follow them, it seemed that they would not be able to get rid of him.
The group walked along the moss-covered road for about ten miles, and after turning three deep gorges, they suddenly saw a hidden valley surrounded by mountains. The terrain here was steep, with green vines hanging from the cliffs on all four sides, and there was a thick white mist at the entrance all day long, which was obviously a natural shelter.
Chen Nan heard the noise and came out to greet them. Seeing Ning Xuan bowing respectfully, Ning Xuan grabbed him and asked with a smile, "Is the cave ready?"
"Master, the cave has been almost tidied up, come and have a look." Chen Nan held Ning Xuan's arm, and as they walked past the stone wall, they could vaguely see the defensive array patterns engraved on the stone wall.
The clear spring at the bottom of the valley gurgles down from the steep cliff on the east side and gathers into a three-meter-square green pool in front of the cave. The water surface reflects the wisteria waterfall hanging from the stone wall.
The originally gloomy cave has been completely transformed. Two white lights at the entrance emit a warm yellow glow, and the night pearls inlaid on the stone wall make the cave a little brighter.
