Jiang Xin tried it too, but it still didn't work. Just then, a look of surprise flashed in Feng Qingxue's eyes: "I can do it."
I originally thought that she, like them, would no longer be able to absorb anything after advancing, but I never expected that she could.
Soon, Feng Che understood what was going on and said to Feng Qingxue, "Go over there and continue your cultivation."
Feng Che pointed in the direction where Ji Jiuying was. Feng Qingxue didn't understand why, but she still obediently went there.
Jiang Ling and Jiang Xin looked at Feng Che with suspicion: "Second Uncle Feng, what exactly is going on?"
"You'll find out soon enough," Feng Che said, walking up to the crowd. "Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me."
The noise stopped abruptly, and everyone turned to look at Feng Che.
"Does Second Master Feng know what's going on?"
One of the people in the crowd asked, and Feng Che nodded, "If I'm not mistaken, the amount of spiritual energy absorbed is determined by the amount of attack power used to kill this dragon. In the end, it was just a few of us who killed this puppet dragon, which is why we were able to continue cultivating this spiritual energy."
Jiang Xin and Jiang Ling thought of the moment Feng Qingxue left, and suddenly understood why their senior sister was still able to cultivate. If they had known, they would have come out to help as well.
Everyone suddenly realized, "So that's how it is! I wish I hadn't hidden. I feel like I've lost a fortune."
Gradually, everyone quieted down, and Feng Che returned to sit down next to Ji Jiuying.
Hei Xiangling said, "This ancient dragon energy is extremely rare. You two should cultivate it as well. I'll keep an eye on things here."
Yin Han and Feng Che nodded and quickly entered a state of cultivation.
Little Phoenix and Xuanwu in the space all sat cross-legged, absorbing the spiritual energy through Ji Jiuying.

Meanwhile, Feng Yu and Hua Li weren't so lucky. After coming down from the black hole, they fell directly into a giant forest. The flowers and plants in the forest were all taller than people, and the towering trees seemed to pierce the clouds.
The carnage continued to unfold in the forest. A group of people struggled to run uphill, pursued by a group of spirit beasts they did not even recognize.
"Beware of man-eating plants."
When the Eastern God Venerable saw the two-story-high flower in front of him, he quickly reminded them. Everyone was shocked to hear this. At this moment, they were in a sorry state and had lost all their high and mighty attitude.
The forest was teeming with ferocious spirit beasts and man-eating blood-sucking vines; the ever-present danger meant that the group never had a chance to rest.
"God, save me..."
Those who reacted slowly were instantly swallowed by the man-eating flower, their voices drowned out by its mouth. Bright red blood flowed from the flower's ferocious maw, and the smell of blood attracted the blood-sucking vines. The familiar swishing sound sent chills down everyone's spines.
"Run this way, everyone get out of here quickly!"
Bai Ling roared, and everyone quickly followed. They had also tried to fight these spirit beasts, but the difference in strength was too great, which resulted in only a little over a hundred of them remaining out of nearly three hundred.
Their current goal is to leave this eerie forest and run towards the barren mountaintop not far away, which radiates golden light, and the spirit beasts seem to dare not approach it even a little bit.
Some people wanted to summon their contracted beasts, but the suppression of their bloodline made their spirit beasts tremble in place, making it difficult for them to walk, let alone fly. The group could only run while taking pills to maintain their strength.
Soon, the group finally emerged from the forest, but the spirit beasts that had been relentlessly pursuing them stopped at the edge of the forest, only able to stare at them with fierce expressions.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if they had just escaped death.
Hua Li did not let her guard down. This was a barren mountain, so why was there not a breath of wind?
"Let's go up to the top of the mountain; maybe the exit is there."
Dong Li spoke up, but Hua Li frowned. Ever since they appeared in this strange forest, they hadn't stopped. She had a feeling that this trip up the mountain wouldn't be so smooth.
Bai Ling looked at Hua Li, who was motionless, and stepped forward to ask, "Ah Li, don't you also feel that something is wrong?"
Hua Li nodded. "Bai Ling, I have a feeling that something is watching us from the shadows."
Bai Ling frowned. Why didn't she have this feeling? Feng Yu, who was about to walk away not far away, paused when he heard Hua Li's words.
"No matter what, the mountaintop is our only way out, so we just need to be careful."
Bai Ling said that they now have no choice but to keep moving forward.
Just as the group reached the mountainside, a hissing sound came from behind them. The group trembled slightly and became alert. They saw thousands of spirit snakes surrounding them.
"How can there be so many snakes?"
"Where did these snakes come from?"
"······"
Looking at the thousands upon thousands of colorful serpents, it was as if they had fallen into a snake pit. Everyone felt a chill run down their spines and gripped their weapons tightly.
The serpent's teeth gleamed with a bloodthirsty cold light, its bright red tongue hissed incessantly, and its transparent saliva dripped onto the ground with a sizzling sound.
"Everyone be careful, these snakes are all poisonous."
As the snake drew ever closer, everyone's hearts pounded, their clothes soaked with cold sweat, but they paid it no heed.
"Now we have no choice but to fight these snakes."
The snakes swarmed forward, and a battle was about to break out. Everyone used all their skills, and the smell of blood instantly filled their nostrils.
"A single spark can start a prairie fire!"
Flames surged toward the serpent, crackling sounds filling the air and the smell of burning food wafting through the air.
"Thunder Strike!"
Boom—
A series of earth-shattering thunderclaps sounded, as if the entire sky was about to be torn apart. Strike after strike of thunderous fury pierced the swarm of snakes, and in an instant, countless severed spirit snakes flew into the air, creating an incredibly bloody and horrifying scene.
"Overturning mountains and seas!"
The land churned and rolled, carrying countless mudslides that rushed towards the snakes, dragging them into the mudslides and crushing them to death.
"The waters have flooded Jinshan Temple!"
Countless waves, each carrying a deadly attack, crashed against the swarm of snakes. Some of the serpents were stunned before they could even react and eventually drowned in the waves.
Feng Yu flew into the air and shouted, "Silver Dragon Slash!"
A cold light flashed, and countless silver sword lights flashed across the sky, as if the Milky Way had poured down from the heavens, rushing straight towards the swarm of snakes.
Hua Li threw the spirit ball in her hand towards the snake swarm, clasped her hands together, and chanted incantations. The power of the spirit ball spread in all directions, forming a huge array. The array was surrounded by runes and patterns, exuding a mysterious and powerful aura.
