Chapter 20 I'm relieved to hear you say that.
The moment this group of people appeared, Mu Jianjian hid the gold hook behind her back, concealing its brilliance; she understood the principle of not flaunting wealth.
The woman in the lead broke the silence first. She smiled at Mu Jianjian, and the "vibration talisman" pressed against her throat began to shake. "Fellow Daoist is quite impressive, killing demonic beasts so much faster than us."
The vibrato symbol can be placed on the throat to make it sound like you can speak anytime and anywhere. It may sound like a gentle greeting, but it doesn't sound friendly.
Mu Jianjian waved her hand, knowing that the other side had become suspicious.
She watched as several women swam toward the few remaining Flying Goose Grasses, and then heard another loud noise coming from the underwater palace.
Mu Jianjian looked at the people who were coming one after another and realized that obtaining the Flying Goose Grass was only the first stage of the task. The more important thing was to use it to survive until the end of the "Water Realm".
Just as everyone was rushing toward Kuroda, which was covered with flying grass, the woman who touched the grass first opened her mouth wide in a strange way, her expression shrill.
In the silent, suffocating depths of the sea, everyone's gaze was fixed on the woman picking the Flying Goose Grass. A huge gash appeared on her hand as she touched the roots!
The flying grass seemed to come alive, shaking violently as it wrapped around the woman's arm and sucked her blood!
The woman had already exhausted her true energy fighting the sea monster in the palace. Now, like a punctured balloon, she lost the ability to resist and turned into a dried corpse in the blink of an eye, which was absorbed by the black soil and turned into nutrients!
Those who arrived before and after all showed fear on their faces, and even those who had gone to Kuroda earlier stopped in their tracks.
A sense of foreboding washed over Mu Jianjian. Sure enough, the next second a woman in the crowd suddenly spoke, her voice standing out sharply in the silence—
"She's holding a flying grass! I saw she had a golden hook that could cut down flying grass!"
Knowing that the mission objective was not to be received from the spatial bag, everyone's attention instantly focused on the Flying Goose Grass in Mu Jianjian's hand.
At the same time, the golden hook shrunk and became a ring, which was then placed on the middle finger of her right hand!
Mu Jianjian knew things were going badly. She didn't have a vibration talisman, so even if she was right, she couldn't explain herself now.
Her eyes calmly swept over the group of women lying on the black soil, assessing their plans. There were about twenty of them, most of whom had exhausted their spiritual energy and were unsteady on their feet.
So she summoned the red ribbon and pushed herself down, springing straight into the distance. Her movements were so swift and clean that no one could react in time.
The gold hook she's wearing now is not under Mu Jianjian's control. The longer she stays in front of everyone, the more disadvantageous factors will arise for her.
If she leaves like this, it's inevitable that some people will covet the flying pheasant grass in her hands and follow her, but there will also be more people who will choose to stay in Kuroda to study how to cut it.
Mu Jianjian's judgment was correct; of the twenty-odd people, only three chased after her.
She glanced back and saw one of the women in green riding on a giant white feather rushing towards her!
Mu Jianjian's eyes widened: Is this speed real?
The book does indeed feature cultivation mounts, but magical artifacts with that function are extremely rare and highly prized.
Thinking about it this way, using this magical artifact to escape would be quite excellent.
Mu Jianjian made up her mind and started plotting her scheme. She turned around and waved the Nine Heavens Ribbon with an expression that seemed extremely angry.
The woman in green was far ahead, her eyes fixed smugly on the girl in front of her, as if looking at an angry clown. "Why are you running, little sister? I just want to ask you something."
She's only at the Qi Condensation Realm, yet she thinks she can escape. I'm afraid even a Foundation Establishment Level 5 cultivator can't match Bai Fengyu's speed!
As soon as she finished speaking, a vibrating note fell from her fingertips to Mu Jianjian's face.
Mu Jianjian's eyes lit up. Such a good thing?
She couldn't wait to stick the talisman to her throat.
"What does sister want to ask?" Mu Jianjian smiled, her gaze subtly shifting to the two people following behind the woman.
"Would you be so kind as to part with that golden hook for your elder sister to use?"
This was a direct statement of "giving" rather than "borrowing," and the firm tone made Mu Jianjian realize that she couldn't get away with it.
Mu Jianjian told the truth, "I can't control that golden hook right now."
"Sister can also hand over the Flying Goose Grass." The green-clad woman's usually mild voice finally became impatient.
“No,” Mu Jianjian shook her head “obediently,” “Sister, are you going to take my things? Master said that it is wrong to take other people’s things.”
Upon seeing Mu Jianjian in this state, the system couldn't help but think of Qu Yang and Cui Wenxiao, who had been tricked and turned to ashes in the underground palace, and instantly felt sympathy for the woman in front of it.
As soon as she got the answer, the woman in green attacked, her eyes filled with murderous intent. "Where in the cultivation world is this? Sister, don't blame me. After all, the law of the jungle and survival of the fittest remains unchanged."
"Oh," Mu Jianjian didn't move, but the Nine Heavens Silk instantly surrounded her and blocked the opponent's attack. "I'm relieved to hear you say that."
She actually blocked it!
The woman in green took a step back, surprised. She made several moves in succession, but Mu Jianjian neutralized them all.
She didn't know that in Mu Jianjian's eyes, although she was a level higher than her, her speed was far inferior to Qu Yang's at that time.
If you can barely withstand Qu Yang's attack, you can definitely dodge the green-clad woman's moves!
Mu Jianjian flicked her finger, looked at the three people attacking at the same time, smiled lightly, and the Nine Heavens Ribbon suddenly grew a hundred times larger, surrounding the three people. The red ribbon had now transformed into an impenetrable steel plate!
At this moment, her true aura began to manifest, indicating she had reached the first stage of Foundation Establishment!
The Nine Heavens Ribbon changed from horizontal to vertical the instant it enveloped and compressed the three people, slashing at them. It held its own against the three without being at a disadvantage.
Mu Jianjian felt a lump in her throat; the battle against opponents of higher levels in the underground palace had indeed paid off.
Seeing the other two Qi Condensation stage women pale-faced and retreating steadily, she sighed and reached out to fling them out of the Nine Heavens Silk's encirclement. A voice appeared in her ear.
"What is my little sister doing?"
The Nine Heavens Silk has a wide attack range, but its speed is also extremely slow.
The fierce flames instantly sliced across his neck, and even though he was in the sea, their power was not diminished in the slightest!
Mu Jianjian reacted quickly and blocked the green-clad woman's fiery feather. The moment her palm touched it, her skin was scorched, as if burning along with her flesh and blood. However, she remained expressionless and clenched her fist tightly, managing to stop the feather just one millimeter away from her neck.
Her flames are the remnants of the White Phoenix! If you touch them, it won't just burn your skin, it will scorch your soul as well!
The girl just grabbed it without any expression?
The woman in green became more alert once again. She exchanged glances with the other two, and the three of them circled around Mu Jianjian, preparing to launch another joint attack.
"It hurts quite a bit for your fire to burn in the water," Mu Jianjian looked down at the feather in her hand, whose flames had been extinguished by her true energy, but the surrounding skin still had sparks, revealing the bone beneath the flesh. "It's really unpleasant."
