Chapter 338 Peeping into Space “No, that’s not right! That’s not really…
"No, that's not right! That's not the real Life Lotus. It just looks similar and possesses some of the Life Lotus's power."
"That's already impressive!" the person next to him responded tremblingly.
It's no wonder he was so excited. Nothing happens without reason. The appearance of the Life Lotus represents that the world is filthy and needs to be saved.
And it did save the entire world, exhausting the power and lifespan of almost three generations of creatures!
So now, why does this thing appear?
Sometimes, the appearance of a baby not only represents opportunity, but also represents a mission!
Since these people witnessed the birth of the Lotus of Life, does it mean that the mission they are to undertake has also appeared?
If you don't accept what heaven gives you, you will suffer the consequences; if you don't accept the great responsibility heaven bestows upon you, you will be in danger!
If there are benefits for you, you should take them. If there are tasks for you, you must also undertake them. No one can escape the mission sent by heaven!
"No, that's not the case," someone immediately murmured in rebuttal, "The cultivation world is very safe now. Crisis, crisis... I don't feel any crisis coming!"
If it is a catastrophe involving the entire world, all living beings in the world will feel it, especially those who are immortal cultivators, who will feel it even more deeply.
Because they have a mission to complete and save the world, they need to be prepared.
But now, he didn't react at all!
"Neither have I..."
"I don't......"
"Neither have I..."
Everyone was discussing this, and the conclusion they came to surprised them: indeed, nothing major had happened, and there was no foul air to make them uneasy.
Why did the imitation of the Life Lotus appear?
Someone suddenly realized, "It's those bugs! They are indeed demon bugs, but they have been modified and can absorb spiritual energy!"
A chill ran through everyone's heart, reaching all the way to the top of their head.
Is this the key?!
In the world of cultivation, there appeared devilish insects that specialized in absorbing spiritual energy. Before they were careful, the whole world was overrun with devilish insects, and all cultivators were not immune. As long as the insects got close to them, all their spiritual energy would be sucked away.
Then, the peace was broken, countless monks died, and resentment arose!
So the lotus of life appeared, no wonder the lotus of life appeared!
"I see, that's how it is!"
"Hurry, hurry, find the source of the bugs and eliminate them in the bud!"
Everyone woke up as if from a dream, and finally understood the crux of the matter. It was like a sudden enlightenment, and they knew how to solve the problem.
However, their spiritual power was imprisoned by the fog and they could not fly with their swords. They could only walk outside. When they reached the edge of the market, they found that the market had already closed. They could not get out at all, and they could not spread the news.
"Everyone!" The voice of the Wen family's elder resounded in everyone's ears, and everyone stopped.
"I think you've guessed it. Yes, someone was indeed bold enough to obtain a demon insect from the demon world and transformed it into a spiritual energy-sucking insect. Besides the kind you saw, there's another kind that's parasitic. It can parasitize on the minds of cultivators and help them absorb the spiritual energy of cultivators with the same spiritual roots."
"When it grows up, or when the mastermind behind the demon worm needs it, the worm will absorb all the spiritual energy of the host and feed it back to its true owner! The host whose spiritual energy is sucked away will lose all its cultivation and die immediately. This is using the life and cultivation of others to achieve self-improvement. It is extremely vicious and must not be tolerated!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The crowd was outraged, and they were also afraid that they would unknowingly become the host of the demon insects, and that all their cultivation would end up being used to benefit others. That would be truly tragic and hateful!
"Luckily, we discovered it in time. We've already found over seventy people who have become parasites, all of whom are cultivators with the three spiritual roots of gold, fire, and wood. The Wen family, along with the ten great families, have already sent people to follow the clues and search for them. For everyone's safety, this insect, which can absorb spiritual energy and ignore all weapons made with spiritual energy, must be eliminated first."
"This is one of the reasons why Fellow Daoist Wei Mubai is openly refining the elixir here today, to attract the demonic insects! We accidentally discovered before that the fifth-grade bone-growing elixir has a fatal temptation to them. In order to attract as many demonic insects as possible, we are refining the elixir in public and spreading the medicinal effects. The fog at the scene not only ensures everyone's safety and prevents the demonic insects from targeting you, but also prevents those with ulterior motives from guessing our purpose and tipping off the person behind this!"
"Everyone has witnessed the power of Venerable Jiang Li's flames. Without the demon insect, the person behind the scenes is no match for the ten great families. This matter will be resolved quickly. Please be patient! Why not let's see what kind of white lotus this demon insect, which almost caused the destruction of all living beings in the cultivation world, will become under the influence of the pill fire!"
The same principle applies to the saying that the dirtiest mud pond can produce the purest lotus.
"It's not yet a Life-Long Lotus, but I think it must have some of its strength. The Wen family hereby promises that no matter how many lotus seeds we cultivate, we will never keep them for ourselves. We will plant them throughout the cultivation world and let them realize their due value!"
"Good, great! The righteousness of the Wen family, the righteousness of Venerable Jiangli, and the righteousness of Wei Mubai!"
Everyone was suddenly excited and shouted.
Things like the Life Lotus are useful. It is a rare treasure that can save the world. With it, the whole world will be clean, with abundant spiritual power, less foul air, and naturally fewer disputes.
But it has little effect on the cultivator's cultivation, and even if it is swallowed, it will be useless and cannot be digested.
And the little spiritual power it brings can be obtained by using other spiritual plants.
As for the absolute defense formed during its growth, it is an absolute defense, which means that no creature can get close to it.
Unless you make a contract with it before it is planted, but why would you make a contract with such a thing? Use your own spiritual power to feed it and become a host?
The catastrophe that occurred more than 100,000 years ago was the result of a contract with a genius. Countless other creatures passed their power to the genius. As the Lotus of Life grew, the genius and countless other people sacrificed their lives.
So this kind of thing is actually a burden to individuals, or more like a disaster, but it is useful to the whole world.
The Wen family did not plan to plant it in their own home, but chose a place outside, so they were not worried that it would be taken away.
Once it is planted and activated with spiritual power, no one will be able to get close and pick it.
And with this lotus of life, the whole world will only get better and better.
So the monks cheered and stared at the stage, expecting more and more life lotuses to take shape, and also hoping that there would be more magic insects.
Unfortunately, after the fifth pill turned green, the magic insects no longer flew in the sky, and the last lotus of vitality almost didn't take shape.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, a large number of high-level cultivators rushed out from all directions of Wenshang City and poured a large amount of spiritual power into it. Under the calcination of the pill fire, it turned into the purest spiritual power and was poured into the pill.
Finally, the fifth lotus of life took shape!
It just so happens that in the entire world of cultivation, one can be planted in the east, west, south, north and center!
After doing all this, Venerable Jiangli was completely exhausted. The spiritual power furnace dissipated with a loud bang. He fell straight back and was supported by a disciple of the Wei family.
Wei Mubai's face was terribly pale. He sat cross-legged and motionless, looking so fragile that he seemed like he would fall down with just a poke.
Xu Hui stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong? Aren't you going to take him to recuperate?" Why are all of them just watching and surrounding him, but not taking any action?
"We can't get close, or he'll automatically strike back. He's already at the end of his strength, and if he attacks again, the consequences will be dire!" said a disciple of the Wei family. "The young master is extremely vigilant, especially in times of life and death like this."
"Then I'll wait here too," Xu Hui said without thinking too much and planned to guard together with others.
However, at this moment, Wei Mubai opened his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed on her, "Help me up."
Xu Hui paused, "Me?"
Wei Mubai didn't say anything. He had no strength left and even couldn't open his eyes.
Xu Hui stepped forward and slowly came to his side, "What should I do?"
"There is medicine in the storage space, take it out," Wei Mubai instructed.
Xu Hui was surprised. "You want me to take medicine from your storage space?"
How is this possible? Once a storage device is stamped with a personal imprint, only that person's spiritual consciousness can access it. Unless he dies, no one else's consciousness can enter.
"My, other dimension," Wei Mubai did not explain. If there was anyone in the world who could touch the other dimension he opened up, it would be Xu Hui.
Although the two of them were no longer engaged, and he didn't know what kind of feelings he had for her before, the wholehearted trust buried deep in his heart could not be faked, so he would definitely be able to get the elixir from the other dimension.
Xu Hui didn't understand, "Another dimension?" Just as she was about to ask, she found a virtual bubble that was not in the real space appeared in front of her. There were many items in it, including countless bottles and jars.
Xu Hui was stunned for a moment, then asked in an inexplicable tone, "What medicine do you want?"
"Top-grade Qi-training pills and top-grade rejuvenation pills," Wei Mubai said.
Xu Hui didn't even need to search. Her mind raced and two bottles of medicine floated in front of her. She took them out, opened them, poured out one pill from each, and handed them to Wei Mubai's lips.
He swallowed it in one gulp, then closed his eyes and meditated. The spiritual energy in his body was boiling, and spiritual energy continued to evaporate from his body and dissipate in the form of mist.
These two kinds of elixirs are so powerful that they overflow with spiritual power!
She couldn't help but take a look and found that there was another one left. She was extremely excited. Such a good pill is definitely a life-saving medicine!
But people should not be too greedy. How can they take other people's good things for themselves?
She silently recited the word "other dimension" again, put the medicine bottle back, and was about to leave when she suddenly caught a glimpse of an exquisite jade figurine placed in the most conspicuous position in the center.
She couldn't help but look over curiously, and the jade carving flew out and landed in her hand. It was Wei Mubai!
Although the jade carving technique is immature, one can feel the strong friendship conveyed on it, as if all the emotions have been poured into it, which makes people feel overwhelmed.
What made Xu Wei's pupils shrink even more was the love letter on the little man's clothes, every word of which was full of sincere emotion.
But this is not the key point. What really makes her feel at a loss is the brushstrokes on it... which are clearly her own!
Xu Hui: ...
Shocked and at a loss, his face suddenly turned red!
She, she, she... loves Wei Mubai so much?
Could she be mistaken? She clearly didn't have such strong feelings. Even though Wei Mubai made her feel very fond of him, she definitely, definitely didn't have such strong feelings!
Xu Hui was at a loss, doubting her life and even suspecting that the whole world was fake!
At this moment, a slender, powerful, jade-white hand reached out, "Please give it back to me!"
