She then realized why the scars on her arms couldn't be removed no matter what she used, and why she felt excruciating pain whenever she touched Ling Wei.
It turns out that her spiritual root had already been dug out by the other party when she was an infant!
After her parents discovered this, fearing that the other party would kill her, they took her young daughter and fled from the Ling family mansion!
Later, his bloodline activated the spiritual root he inherited.
Now, the two spiritual roots have finally returned to their rightful place!
The dense wood-type spiritual root that appeared in her body was actually a direct fusion with the spiritual root she absorbed later!
At this moment, Lin Jingge felt her whole body filled with spiritual power, and the barrier of the Great Spirit Master realm, which was originally very difficult to break through, was as thin as a cicada's wing at this moment.
Lin Jingge thought that if things changed, she could break through immediately!
However, there was someone else waiting for her to deal with, so the breakthrough wasn't urgent.
While Lin Jingge was killing Ling Wei, Chu Wang stared at the Secret Realm Pearl in front of him, attempting to erase the divine imprint that Lin Jingge had placed on the Secret Realm Pearl and take it for himself.
However, just as his divine sense entered the Secret Realm Pearl, it was burned with excruciating pain.
At this moment, Lin Jingge had already arrived with her long sword.
Chu Wang had a headache and watched Lin Jingge's movements with his eyes slightly narrowed.
He tried to avoid it, but was immobilized by the Secret Realm Bead, rendering him unable to move.
With a loud clang, Lin Jingge's longsword slashed down heavily from above Chu Wang's head.
The longsword's blade emanated a chilling aura, and with Lin Jingge's spiritual power propelling it forward, using all her strength, if Chu Wang, whose spiritual power was imprisoned by the Secret Realm Pearl, were to be struck by it, he would surely be cleaved in two.
But an unexpected incident occurred.
As the longsword fell, a black light mixed with specks of gold suddenly appeared around Chu Wang.
The light enveloped Chu Wang, creating an extremely eerie atmosphere. It even launched a counterattack while Lin Jingge was swinging her sword, with several wisps of black energy attempting to take advantage of the opportunity to enter Lin Jingge's body.
Lin Jingge quickly circulated her spiritual power to resist.
Lin Jingge gritted her teeth as she watched Chu Wang, who was enveloped in a dark ball of light, almost completely disperse the black aura.
She's no good anymore. Even in this state, she still can't kill Chu Wang!
Since swords and blades could not harm her opponent, Lin Jingge immediately channeled all her spiritual power to attack Chu Wang.
However, just as the unstoppable attack was about to strike, barely touching Chu Wang, a flash of white light appeared before his eyes, and when he looked again, Chu Wang had already disappeared from the spot.
"Chu Wang!" Lin Jingge looked at the spot where the figure had disappeared, murmuring the other person's name, her hands involuntarily clenching into fists.
Even after all this, you still can't kill the other person?!
While Lin Jingge lowered her eyes and remained silent, Xiao Shi, who had been wandering off somewhere, suddenly jumped down from the tree.
[Gege, look what good stuff I found!] Xiao Shi jumped up and down in front of Lin Jingge, looking as if he was showing off.
Subconsciously, Lin Jingge raised her eyes.
A book emitting a soft green light floated in front of me.
Lin Jingge exclaimed in surprise:
"Pharmacopoeia?!"
[What pharmacopoeia?] Xiao Shi didn't know that this book was what Lin Jingge had been looking for, so when he heard these two words from the other party, he didn't react for a moment.
[This is a fragment of the Heavenly Book! Chu Wang was holding it tightly just now, and I thought it was some kind of treasure, so I went closer to take a look.]
It naturally lacked the ability to steal from Chu Wang, but the Heavenly Book, which transcends the Heavenly Dao, possessed that ability!
So what if someone is chosen by fate? In the face of the Book of Destiny, they are nothing more than a nobody.
Moreover, this was originally part of the Heavenly Book; once it was close enough, a slight pull was all it took to put the fragment back in place.
"A fragment of the Heavenly Book?" Lin Jingge murmured to herself. She suddenly remembered that Xiao Shi had once told her to pay attention to this fragment.
Who would have thought that one of the fragments of the celestial book was a pharmacopoeia?!
[Yes, it's a fragment of the Heavenly Book. With this fragment, I'll never encounter any spiritual plants or herbs I don't recognize again.]
The most important thing about the pharmacopoeia is not recognizing the ingredients, but that it contains many prescriptions that have been lost to time!
This is the most important reason why Chu Wang was so determined to obtain the pharmacopoeia.
Chu Wang possesses a spiritual root that is incompatible with wood and fire, but his cultivation technique perfectly balances these two elements, making him an excellent candidate for alchemy.
In order to make Chu Wang even more powerful in the storyline, the Lin family sent him equipment.
The Lin family collapsed too suddenly; even Granny Lin, who lived through that era, couldn't explain the specific reasons.
Lin Jingge raised her hand and took the pharmacopoeia in her hand. With a slight thought, green spiritual energy overflowed from her fingertips and landed on the pharmacopoeia.
Lin Jingge thus broke the shackles that had bound the pharmacopoeia.
In stark contrast to her treatment of Chu Wang, Lin Jin was very obedient to the pharmacist, allowing him to peruse it.
Although she could only see what Lin Jingge's cultivation level allowed, it was still much better than outsiders not being able to see a single page.
"I will never lose you again!" Lin Jingge said as if making a vow, suddenly hugging the pharmacopoeia tightly to her chest.
[Um... well, Gege, the pharmacopoeia is part of the Heavenly Book. Only when the Heavenly Book absorbs it can it exert a greater effect.]
Xiao Shi didn't dare to say what came next, because it had only been speaking for a short while when it saw Lin Jingge staring at it, and in the end, it didn't finish its sentence.
It didn't understand what the pharmacopoeia meant to the Lin family, nor did it understand the pharmacopoeia's place in Grandma Lin's heart; it was simply making the best decision.
"Let's talk about integrating the pharmacopoeia after I've rescued Granny Lin." Lin Jingge stored the pharmacopoeia into her sea of consciousness.
There's no need to renew the contract, because Chu Wang simply can't find the mark of the Lin family on the pharmacopoeia.
The pharmacopoeia, which had served the Lin family for a lifetime, had long since become sentient and knew who its master was.
As long as the Lin family has any bloodline remaining, Chu Wang will never obtain the pharmacopoeia.
This is why Chu Wang went to great lengths to wipe out Lin Jingge's entire family.
After finding a safe place, Lin Jingge released Grandma Lin.
The blood flowing from Granny Lin's body had already congealed, and even her wheat-colored skin showed signs of paleness.
"What should we do now? Should we just give the Fruit of Life and Death to Grandma?" Lin Jingge placed her left hand under the back of Grandma Lin's head, helping her lie down on her lap, while holding the Fruit of Life and Death in her right hand. For a moment, she was at a loss.
The Fruit of Life and Death was indeed miraculous; when she held it in her hand, she felt as if the fruit was beating like a heart.
[The Heavenly Book only mentioned the effects of the Fruit of Life and Death, but not how to use it...] Xiao Shi also looked worried and rested on Lin Jingge's shoulder, looking at Granny Lin, whose face and lips were as white as paper, feeling somewhat helpless.
It flipped through the celestial book countless times, but could only glean one piece of information, yet found no way to use it.
Lin Jingge pursed her lips and tucked the slightly messy hair from Grandma Lin's forehead behind her ear.
Grandma Lin has experienced both wealth and poverty in her life. Perhaps due to the hardships she endured in her old age, she has some brown age spots on her face.
