Forbidden City

Chapter 227 Devouring Spirit Qi
The herbs here, some need to pick the fruit, some need to pick the stems and branches, and some need to uproot the roots. I saw that there are hundreds of herbs on the four walls, and it takes a few days to collect them.

After collecting a kind of herbal medicine, Master Jiuyang asked: "Look at the side, learn how to pick Xinxincao, and help me. There are also herbs that I don't know. Master said to uproot them and put them in this box." .”

Master Jiuyang pointed to the relatively large jade box on the side.I nodded, more than happy to help.

There are the most Xixincao here, accounting for about half of the herbs. The main effect of Xixincao is to expel fire and poison, clear the heart and improve eyesight. Those Taoists who make alchemy collect Xinxincao and other medicinal materials together to refine Xixindan , It is very beneficial for beginners.

All herbs with spiritual energy are called spiritual herbs, and they are extremely hard to find. It is precisely because the fire spirit bird lives in seclusion here and cultivates in the cave for a long time, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, so that the plants in the cave are gradually washed by the spiritual energy , became a treasure.

I held the shovel in my right hand, held the stalk of a sycamore with my left hand, and carefully shoveled towards the root of the stalk. The soil here is very hard, and it took me a few minutes to shovel out one.

When I was about to put the psyllium in my hand into the jade box, I suddenly found that the cypress in my right hand withered!Green branches turned gray in seconds!The roots are completely shriveled and there is no sign of life!

what's the situation?I'm stunned!His right hand shook in fright, and the withered heart-washing grass fell to the ground, smashing like glass!

It was fine when I dug out the heart-washing grass, but when I was about to put it in the box, it died and lost all aura!
When I was in a daze, I saw a faint white light flashing on the middle finger of my right hand, and a comfortable coolness hit my heart. What's going on?Could it be that the linen god ring sucked away the aura of Xinxincao?

In order to prove this, I went to the mountain wall and directly held another stalk with my right hand. The middle finger of my right hand flickered for a while, and I saw that the stalk was withering at a speed visible to the naked eye. Inside, it becomes dead grass!Turned into fly ash!

"Fuck, what are you doing!" Master Jiuyang just collected a fruit, turned around and saw me, just in time to witness all this!
"Stop quickly, are you looking for death!" Master Jiuyang hurriedly pushed me aside, then grabbed my arm firmly with his left hand, and felt my pulse with his right hand.

Seeing the anxious and fearful look on Master Jiuyang's face, I was terrified, "What's wrong?"

"What are you talking about?" Master Jiuyang roared angrily, "What kind of sorcery did you practice? These spirit grass spirits are extremely overbearing, and only monsters can directly absorb them. If humans absorb a little, they will be blown away. ! Human physique cannot bear this kind of aura!"

I was shocked when I heard the words, but I didn't feel any discomfort in my body. I didn't absorb the aura, it was the Mai Shenjie, okay?But about Mai Shenjie, I can't tell Master Jiuyang.

Master Jiuyang took my pulse, his complexion gradually improved, and then he looked at me strangely, and said, "Why are you all right? What about the spiritual energy you absorbed? Why can't you feel it in your body?"

I glanced at him in dissatisfaction, do you expect something to happen to me?
Master Jiuyang continued to check my body unbelievingly, but nothing was gained.

I said: "Don't worry about me, we are friends, I can tell you that I have a treasure that can swallow spiritual energy."

"Treasure? What treasure?" Master Jiuyang's eyes lit up, with a look of sudden realization, and then a look of excitement.

I cut to the chase and said, "Although we are friends, everyone has their own secrets. I can't tell you about these. I have been told by Master, so I can't tell anyone."

Master Jiuyang was a little disappointed, but he didn't ask any more questions. He thought for a while and said, "Since you have treasures that can absorb spiritual energy directly, then you can absorb all the spiritual energy here, and I don't bother to pick it."

I was overjoyed, I knew that the absorption of these auras by the Maishen Ring must be of great benefit to me in the future, but this seems a bit inappropriate, right?
I said: "These herbs are very precious. So many strong people in Tianshan came to snatch them regardless of their lives. If I absorb the spiritual energy here, how will my father explain it?"

You can't go too far in life, let me get some, but let me take them all, I can't do it, I don't know what Master Jiuyang thinks.

Master Jiuyang explained: "These herbs were originally ordinary herbs, but the fire spirit bird has been practicing here for a long time, and the cultivation of monsters needs to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, so these herbs have become treasures under the nourishment of aura for a long time. It's a dream come true for anyone!"

"Even if the master gets these treasures, he dare not take them out easily! So let me temporarily bury them in a secret place here, and then take them out after the news of this place passes. Otherwise, those immortals in Tianshan will know that Master has taken the treasures here , don’t even eat Master!”

"Collecting these spiritual herbs, Master is also using the spiritual energy in the herbs to make alchemy, but no matter how clever my technique is, the spiritual energy will be lost. The longer the treasure is left, the smaller the spiritual energy will be lost. If I use it for alchemy in the future, it will be lost. Lost aura."

"If you have treasures that can hold the aura here, generally the treasures that can directly absorb the aura are all Taoist treasures, and the aura will not be damaged, and you can take it and use it immediately. This will save those tedious procedures, so you All of them have been absorbed, and when the master needs them, they can be used directly."

"More importantly, the aura is in your hands, no one can take it away. After all, burying it here may not be a perfect solution. It will be troublesome if it is discovered."

It turns out that the preciousness of these spiritual herbs has exceeded my imagination.

However, I don’t know anything about the Maiden Ring at all. When Master gave it to me, he just said that it was a sacred object of the Mai sect, and he didn’t tell me its function at all. come out.

However, it doesn't matter, so much aura, I'll inhale it first!If I can't take it out by then, then it's none of my business, haha...

So, I was like a hungry wolf, these spiritual herbs were like delicious food, I rushed over and enjoyed them to my heart's content.

Seeing the spiritual grasses withering one after another, and all the spiritual energy has disappeared into my body, the corners of Master Jiuyang's mouth twitched non-stop.

It only took more than half an hour, and all the spiritual herbs in the cave were destroyed by me!
The spirit grass was lost, and there was no light in the whole cave, so we hurriedly turned on the flashlight.

Master Jiuyang said: "The spiritual energy disappears here, and those old and immortal people in Tianshan will definitely know it soon, so let's go quickly!"

"Where are we going next?" I asked hastily.

"Nonsense, of course it's Demon Realm!"

We left the cave and packed up our things. Then Master Jiuyang muttered something in his mouth. A shadow swooped down from the night sky and landed on Master Jiuyang's shoulder. It was the Fire Spirit Bird.

Master Jiuyang held the fire spirit bird with both hands, placed it on the ground more than ten meters away, and then flew back.

I saw that Master Jiuyang got busy, and a parchment scroll appeared in his hand. He was studying it carefully, and I said, "Don't tell me, you want to make the fire spirit bird bigger and take us to fly there?"

"That's right." Master Jiuyang pointed to the scroll and said, "This is what Master gave me. I haven't read the control technique in it yet, and I'm going to learn it now."

Fuck!You are only studying now?But after thinking about it, Luo Jiutian definitely gave the sheepskin to Master Jiuyang a few hours ago.

Master Jiuyang began to speak very difficult words, and then the fire spirit bird beside him began to move, his thin body gradually became larger, and his whole body began to be filled with raging flames!

I was stunned. In a few seconds, the fire spirit bird turned into a giant bird about five meters high!However, the flames all over its body were ice blue, without any warmth.

Although the huge eyes are full of fire, but with bursts of warmth, there is no frightening or palpitating light. The eyes blink and blink, as if they are asking Master Jiuyang something.
