Chapter 6, Eagle Snake Fruit
Just as Fang Ling was about to speak, a crack suddenly appeared on the arm of the burly man, and at that moment, a blue light also appeared beside him
Under Fang Ling's insistence, Lin Mucheng had no choice but to let Fang Ling go ahead. However, he followed closely behind her, taking great care.
In order to treat his junior's injury by entering a perilous place that practitioners usually avoid, Fang Ling felt a greater admiration for Lin Mucheng. After pondering for a moment, he took out an eagle snake fruit from his medicine basket.
Go left
"Little brother, carrying so many medicines is quite cumbersome. I happen to have a small bag here, which I acquired some time ago. You can take it and use it!" As he spoke, a small bag appeared in Lin Mucheng's hand.
The azure light shattered in an instant, and the long robe on the man was torn into two pieces
Lin Mucheng's bold character greatly impressed Fang Ling. Just as he was thinking about having a chat with Lin Mucheng, he heard Lin Mucheng's voice, somewhat surprised, saying: "Brother Fang, you... you came down from above?"
However, wherever he went, the answer he received was always disappointment
Fang Ling casually took the small bag and said with a smile, "Brother Lin, since you have no use for it, I won't be polite then."
Watching Fang Ling gracefully handle the small Qiankun bag, Lin Mucheng's face also broke into a smile
However, Lin Mucheng had seen the path he had just taken, so after a brief moment of hesitation, he cheerfully admitted: "Yes, I just came down from above"
According to the master's memory, this small bag of holding is indeed a valuable item; as long as it is not a living creature, anything can be stored within the small bag of holding
At this moment, the Han was also in a state of desperation, nearly perishing in the spatial rift. He quickly dodged to the left, covering a distance of two zhang.
Thank you, Brother Lin, I understand now!" Fang Ling looked at Lin Mucheng with a grateful gaze
After transferring more than half of the medicinal herbs from his backpack into the small Qiankun bag, Fang Ling set off down the mountain accompanied by Lin Mucheng
Originally, Lin Mucheng was supposed to lead the way, but Fang Ling was resolutely unwilling. It was not that he feared Lin Mucheng would encounter any significant danger; rather, he was primarily concerned that Lin Mucheng would drag him down as well
The man was positioned on the right side of the correct route, and Fang Ling shouted loudly at the man.
Fang Ling felt a twinge of hesitation upon hearing these words. He understood that one should only speak a third of their mind to others and must not lay bare their entire heart.
Lin Mucheng sighed and said, "I have a very close junior disciple who was injured in his foundation during a recent duel. If he is not treated promptly, the foundation he worked so hard to establish will be destroyed in an instant"
"Brother Lin, it is quite rare for cultivators to come here. How did you end up in this place?" Fang Ling feigned curiosity as he spoke.
The small bag shimmered with three colors in the sunlight, clearly indicating it was a valuable item. Fang Ling swallowed hard.
It is precisely because of his admiration that Lin Mucheng has gradually stopped viewing Fang Ling as merely a child; he has even begun to regard Fang Ling as his equal.
"Foolish boy, this kind of spiritual perception may indeed bring you benefits, but it will also bring you disasters. Do you know about the Luanqu? The reason it is hunted down is precisely because its tail feathers are too beautiful." At this point, Lin Mucheng patted Fang Ling and said, "If some people were to learn about your spiritual perception, they would similarly treat you as a tool."
The usage of this small Qiankun bag is very simple; it is one of the few magical tools that can be used by those below the seventh level of Qi training. Younger brother, you just need to input your internal energy into the Qiankun bag, and you will be able to place items into the bag.
"Little brother, this is the eagle snake fruit I have been looking for. May I ask how much you are asking for it?" As Lin Mucheng spoke, he brushed his hand into his sleeve, and a small pouch appeared in his hand
This young boy would definitely not be reminding himself haphazardly. Could it be that he is very familiar with this path
This item is of no use to me either, Brother Fang, please do not decline! Lin Mucheng, fearing that Fang Ling might refuse, added another sentence.
If it were not for the fact that his junior brother truly could not wait any longer, he would not have personally ventured into this wax mountain, which bore no distinction between cultivators and ordinary herbal gatherers
As a cultivator, Lin Mucheng's reaction to danger is certainly more acute than that of others. Following closely behind Fang Ling, he sometimes even feels that damned spatial rift is right beside him, yet no matter how close it gets, this rift has not managed to cut him even a little.
Outside, he had no means to resist Lin Mucheng at all, but on this platform, he wished to leave, and no one could stop him
Lin Mucheng's eyes flickered; as a cultivator, he was acutely aware of the dangers of ascending. Just a moment ago, he nearly became trapped here.
Lin Mucheng's expression changed for a moment, and then he burst into hearty laughter, saying, "You are right, my younger brother; I was indeed a bit petty just now"
I, in my dreams, long for a small bag of holding. In our city, there are no more than ten people who possess such a small bag of holding.
Fang Ling, seeing the big man being modest, also smiled and said: "My name is Fang Ling, it was just a small effort on my part earlier, you need not worry about it"
Looking at the large eagle-snake fruit in Fang Ling's hand, Lin Mucheng's heart trembled slightly; for the past ten days, this was the spiritual fruit he had been longing for day and night
Fang Ling let out a sigh of relief. Since Lin Mucheng said this, it meant that he posed no threat to him at the moment. Casually dissipating his own energy, Fang Ling feigned ignorance and asked, "Brother Lin, why can't we let others know?"
Lin Mucheng laughed heartily and said: "For you, my younger brother, it is a simple task, but for me, it carries the weight of life. In the future, if you have any matters, feel free to come to me, Old Lin."
Brother Lin, this should be the eagle snake fruit you are looking for
Fang Ling pondered for a moment before saying: "Brother Lin, the reason I was able to ascend from here is not due to my skills, but primarily because of my intuition"
In an instant, he recalled Fang Ling's earlier reminder
However, as they continued on their journey, Lin Mu developed a sense of admiration for Fang Ling's spiritual awareness; remarkably, they had not encountered a single spatial rift along the way
It feels that this concept is quite mysterious, yet Lin Mucheng believes in it. He knows that in this world, there are certain individuals who possess a keen sense; what seems impossible to others becomes a tangible reality for them.
At the moment when Lin Mucheng formed this thought, the two individuals had already arrived at the foot of the mountain. At this time, there were even more people standing at the entrance opened by Master Zhao.
However, he immediately straightened his face and said: "Brother Lin, you just mentioned that meeting is fate. By offering me such a reward, you are looking down on me as a person"
Looking at Fang Ling, who appeared calm as if discussing something trivial, Lin Mucheng sighed. This young man had a pure heart, and his earlier thoughts were indeed a bit excessive.
After chatting for a few more moments, Lin Mucheng expressed even greater admiration for Fang Ling upon learning the purpose of her visit.
"Indeed, Brother Lin is correct; I ascended from here." Fang Ling feigned a harmless demeanor on the surface, yet she had already elevated her internal energy to its peak, ready to escape at the slightest sign of danger.
Although he found Fang Ling to be temperamental, his pride as a cultivator made him unwilling to take advantage of her. The way Fang Ling generously accepted the small Qiankun bag further appealed to him.
Lin Mucheng laughed heartily and said: "As long as you understand, it's good. However, since you are my little brother Lin Mucheng, in this small Dingfang City, no one will dare to treat you as a tool."
This bag is slightly smaller compared to the one Lin Mucheng took out earlier, and the shimmering light is of two colors, but the words 'Small Universe' made Fang Ling's heart skip a beat
We have almost prepared all the medicinal ingredients for refining the rejuvenation elixir, but we are still missing a key ingredient, the Eagle Snake Fruit. I have searched four or five places but could not find any for sale. I have heard that there is Eagle Snake Fruit within Mount La, so I naturally must venture there.
Thinking of this, Lin Mucheng asked in a deep voice: "Brother, please forgive my presumptuous question, did you ascend by passing through this platform?"
"Oh my, that brat Fang Ling actually made it out alive, it's simply unbelievable!" A skinny monkey, clutching one of his arms, exclaimed sharply upon seeing Fang Ling come down. However, he quickly added loudly, "I bet that Fang Ling only collected no more than three types of herbs this time!"
It would be quite good to introduce Fang Ling into our sect
Brother Fang, allow me to say something you may not wish to hear: this place is fraught with danger. Given your abilities, it would be quite difficult for you to ascend from here. " Lin Mucheng said this while fixing his gaze intently on Fang Ling
Although this distance of three zhang is not very far, it can be life-saving at a critical moment
As he spoke, he took the Eagle Snake Fruit from Fang Ling's hand, carefully played with it for a moment, and then took out a jade box from his sleeve, gently placing the Eagle Snake Fruit inside the box
The tall man looked at Fang Ling, who was walking over gently, and clasped his hands, saying: "I am Lin Mucheng, thank you for the reminder, young brother"
At this moment, Fang Ling also walked onto the platform
Drops of blood continuously dripped from the strong man's arm
"Why aren't you hurrying up!" The burly man's gaze, for some unknown reason, fell upon Fang Ling, and he shouted loudly at Fang Ling once again
Landing with trepidation, the burly man let out a sigh of relief upon discovering that there was no danger.
Fang Ling felt a surge of warmth in her heart upon hearing the big man shout. At such a critical moment of life and death, the fact that he still remembered to remind her indicated that this person had a good heart deep down.
Lin Mucheng explained it very simply, but Fang Ling took half an hour to fully understand this Qiankun bag
The great Han truly deserves to be a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage. Just as his body was about to fall into the pit, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and then his descending body quickly retreated three zhang forward and backward.
He said in a low voice at that moment: "Fang Ling, this kind of spiritual awareness of yours is something you should keep to yourself; you must never tell anyone else, do you understand?"
The scene just now truly shocked him; if a few more cracks were to appear, he might very well be trapped here
Although he knew that Fang Ling had spiritual perception, this kind of perception is quite mysterious and often becomes suddenly unreliable.
Watching the robust figure of the man evade the pit, Fang Ling felt a greater sense of admiration for him
