Qing Mo was also looking around.
“Medicinal plants?”
The scent of medicinal plants that Dongfang Minghui smelled came from the dark place in front. Unfortunately, there was nothing there. "Strange, what's over there?"
"So, is there something wrong with your sense of smell?" Wei Junlan teased her and then received a cold glare from Qian Wanyu.
"Ninth sister shouldn't be wrong."
Little Colour also felt that something was strange. Its vine branches searched for a while on the dark ground, but found nothing. Instead, the vine branches were stained with a little dark soil. At first, it didn't pay much attention. However soon it started spreading on all Its vine branches opened new vines, and the speed of spread was astonishing, "What is this?!"
Dongfang Minghui found that her hands were also pitch black, and she couldn't wipe them off despite wiping them several times, "My hands!"
“Ninth Sister!”
"What is this?"
Dongfang Minghui still had the sleeping dragon seal on her hand, one hand became bright red, and the mark circulated back and forth on her hand. The burning pain was like a burning fire, and her other hand was pitch black, it was impossible to see what this black stuff was.
Wei Junlan also tried to wash her hands with water, but it didn't work at all.
“Ninth Sister.”
Just when everyone was busy, the little mute was anxiously gesturing, and the Tianyin helmet automatically jumped from the space ring to the ground, actively rolling into the darkness. After rolling around everyone couldn't understand what it was doing so it kept rolling again.
Qian Wanyu's gaze rested on the buds of the little bean sprouts. Even if the two small buds were stained with black soil, they were still the same color. Relatively speaking, Little Colour's vines and Dongfang Minghui's hands seemed to be a bit different.
"Ninth Sister, come here."
Qian Wanyu took Dongfang Minghui's hand and gestured to Wei Junlan to hold the little bean sprouts. She rubbed Dongfang Minghui's hand back and forth on the buds of the little bean sprouts. Soon, all the black stuff that could not be cleaned was gone!
The imprint of the sleepy dragon seal also slowly stopped burning and the feeling disappeared.
Dongfang Minghui's beating heart slowly calmed down, after a long pause she said, "Little bean sprouts?"
The two buds of the little bean sprouts also trembled and greeted her.
"Little bean sprouts, hurry up and give me a rub too." Little Colour also tried hard. Two of its vines grew from one, two became four, and four became… In the blink of an eye, its vine branches split into a hundred, which looked a bit terrifying.
Qing Mo saw the changes and then took a long time to say, "Could it be obsidian soil?"
Qian Wanyu heard Qing Mo speak in her soul sea, and asked curiously, "What is obsidian soil?"
"Obsidian soil lives in the Black Medicine Valley on the other side of the Seven-Colored Continent. It can rapidly accelerate the growth of plants and is considered a very fertile soil. Generally, medical plants will mutate or break through their growth limit if they grow in such a place. This soil is a treasure that many pharmacists have dreamed of, but I didn't expect you to come across it so casually, your luck is really amazing…" There was a bit of envy, jealousy and hate in Qing Mo's voice thinking of how they could just blindly encounter such a chance.
Qing Mo didn't know whether to say that they were lucky or that they were unlucky at this point.
"Medicinal plants that grow with obsidian soil have very eccentric temperaments, so you should be careful of the path ahead."
"What do you mean?"
Before Qian Wanyu could ask another question, she heard Qing Mo's warning.
"Damn, what!" Wei Junlan felt her buttocks being touched, and slapped the little mute with her backhand, shocking him, "Why are you touching me?"
The little mute was stunned by the sudden slap, he was stunned, and shook his head like a rattle. In order to avoid suspicion, he took two steps back and stepped back to Dongfang Minghui's side, obviously taking the other party as a life saviour and desperately trying his best to avoid suspicion. He kept gesturing towards something.
Dongfang Minghui tilted her head, "Do you want to mate with her?"
After speaking, Dongfang Minghui covered her mouth after realizing what she said, don't ask her why she thought of this after looking at the situation between the two people.
All the people present were stunned.
Wei Junlan became even more murderous, she pulled out the sword in her space ring, "Bastard, if you dare to mess with this old lady, I-I will cut—"
"Calm down."
Qian Wanyu grabbed Wei Junlan's hand, "There must be a misunderstanding here."
"Misunderstanding?"
Qian Wanyu took out the moonstone and pointed it at Wei Junlan's back to take a look. Her face was tense, but there was a smile in her eyes that couldn't be concealed.
Dongfang Minghui was curious, and with the help of the moonstone's light, she leaned over to take a look, and burst out laughing, "Wei Junlan, flowers are blooming on the back of your butt!"
"What?!"
"Cough." Qian Wanyu was afraid that she would misunderstand again, so she suppressed a smile and explained, "Someone painted a very beautiful flower blooming on your buttocks…"
Wei Junlan's face turned dark when she heard it. She grabbed the hem of her clothes but couldn't see. If Qian Wanyu hadn't stopped her, she might have taken off her pants on the spot to check.
"Don't you think it's too quiet here?" Qian Wanyu reminded.
Wei Junlan and Little Mute were silent after hearing this, everyone didn't speak, and the atmosphere became very strange. Dongfang Minghui looked at the lips of each of them and found that no one had spoken. She couldn't help breaking the silence, "Seventh sister, what's wrong?"
Qian Wanyu swept her eyes around slightly and saw a phantom passing by in the darkness. She walked quietly to Dongfang Minghui's side, held the other's hand, interlaced her fingers, and wrote something in her hand.
Dongfang Minghui's attention immediately shifted to the palm of her hand, and she seriously speculated on what Seventh Sister wrote on her palm.
Qian Wanyu gave Wei Junlan a look, and when the shadow reappeared, they surrounded the shadow from the left and right.
"Eat this." Little Colour rushed over in a rage, and with the three-person siege, they managed to suppress the shadow underneath. Little Colour smelled the scent of medicinal plants after this close contact.
The little bean sprouts was rolling around in the obsidian soil on the side and unwilling to go near Little Colour.
"Little bean sprouts, come here."
"No—" The tianyin helmet rolled around Little Colour, enjoying the game.
"Ok then get lost."
Dongfang Minghui didn't know what they were playing with, looking at them like children, the dark medical plant that was pressed down on the ground looked a bit pitiful, she hurriedly held the small bean sprouts in her arms, "Little bean sprouts don't make trouble."
The two small buds of the small bean sprouts wilted into a ball in an instant.
Little Colour tied up the remaining medicinal plant with its vines. From beginning to end, it was tall and slender, almost reaching the position on Dongfang Minghui's chest. This plant had shuttled back and forth in the dark, like a shadowy figure and its leaves were all pitch black.
They looked up and down with the help of the moonstone, but they couldn't identify it.
"Little Colour, do you know what medicinal plants this is?"
"Don't know."
Qian Wanyu thought of what Qing Mo said just now that the medicinal plants growing in the obsidian soil were likely to mutate. Could the medicinal plant in front also be a mutated medicinal plant?
Dongfang Minghui, the only one who could communicate with medicinal plants was also a little confused. Although she had lost her hearing, her sense of smell was very sensitive. She could smell the strong scent of medicinal plants but it didn't seem to be emitted from this medicinal plant. She looked at Sister Seventh and Wei Junlan, and the little mute who couldn't speak and couldn't help asking, "Do you feel something is wrong?"
"What's wrong?"
As soon as Wei Junlan finished asking, she felt two vines sweep over her legs, turning her upside down and hanging her from a tree, "What the fuck! Dongfang Minghui, make your contracted magic plant let me go quickly. Don't play around!"
As soon as Qian Wanyu took out her whip, a few vines tied the whip and her hands tightly. As a result, just like Wei Junlan, she was also hung upside down on the tree. The whip fell to the ground, and was quickly caught by the vines and dragged into the darkness.
The little mute didn't even have time to resist.
Dongfang Minghui widened her eyes at how fast things had developed, the vines in all directions spread around her and slowly stopped around her as if observing her, and then pulled back a little bit, "Little Colour?"
Little Colour's vines and the vine branches hanging down in the darkness were tied together. It was hard to distinguish who was who and it made Dongfang Minghui very anxious. The pitch black darkness also made her very panicked, "Seventh sister?"
Just as Qian Wanyu was about to break these branches, she heard Qing Mo in the soul sea say, "You've forgotten that when you were in the elf tribe last time those vines could release a mist that can knock you out? Maybe these vines can also release that type of mist. It will be more troublesome if you're unconscious."
The more she struggled, the tighter the vines became and she could hardly breathe, "Ninth Sister."
"Look, they are showing mercy to your Ninth Sister, you should just wait and see what happens." Qing Mo's words extinguished Qian Wanyu's worried heart.
Yes, Ninth Sister was one of the Longevity People. They have a natural affinity for plants and can reduce the vigilance of plants, however Qian Wanyu was still a bit worried.
"What the hell, what happened." Wei Junlan, who didn't know the truth was thought she was being teased by Little Colour, but after careful identification, she found that these vines were slightly different from Little Colour's vine. Little Colour's vines were quite dangerous, there were leaves on every section of the vines and thorns on the sides of the vines. The vines binding them were bare however and there were no leaves.
"Just shut up."
Qian Wanyu was trying to find a way to get out without alerting the plants but when she heard Wei Junlan's noisy voice, she wished she could immediately seal her mouth, "We have come to a medicinal plant garden."
"What garden? These plants can even attack people!"
"It's okay." It was a blessing in misfortune that all the plants did was bind them.
“Little Colour?”
"Dare to pull on my leaves, do you want to die?"
Little Colour was mad, thinking that it was a dignified and unique magic plant in the world but it it has been reduced to being bullied by this group of vines from who knows where, it was about to explode in anger.
Dongfang Minghui saw two vines twitching like flexible pythons. She couldn't tell who was who so she couldn't step forward to help. Just when she didn't know what to do, the pig fairy grass stuck out its body.
"If there is fire, I think a fire can make these arrogant guys obedient." The pig fairy grass suddenly felt that Toothless was not so useless after all.
"Yes, yes." Little bean sprouts also shook both hands, intending to use its helmet to smash the vines.
It's a pity that Toothless still hadn't made a sound after hibernating so far. Pig fairy grass hooked Dongfang Minghui's finger with the little pig tail to soothe her uneasy heart.
Little bean sprouts looked at Little Colour and their battle situation, it wanted to get out of Dongfang Minghui's hands to go down to help. However, in the end, it just stayed in her arms obediently.
Dongfang Minghui suddenly sat cross-legged and took out the companion plant she had found from the bottom of the sea.
"What does she want to do?" Wei Junlan said suddenly.
"Ninth Sister." Qian Wanyu frowned, Ninth Sister was planning to go all out and just use the medicinal plant as is without turning it into proper medicine. She turned to Little Colour and yelled, "How are the medicinal plants used? What if she eats them rashly? Don't just focus on fighting with these medicinal plants. If Ninth Sister has an emergency, I'm definitely going to chase you down!"
"Your mother!" Little Colour smashed the vines attacking it on the trunk of the tree. After smashing it several times, those vines were afraid of pain and all shrank back. Little Colour rushed in front of Dongfang Minghui and quickly grabbed the accompanying purple plant that was about to be swallowed by Dongfang Minghui, "Do you want to die?! This plant must be used with another medicinal plant to heal your ears!"
The method of eating the plants on its own was only used by mermen!
Little Colour babbled on at Dongfang Minghui angrily without pause.
Dongfang Minghui's black and white eyes just looked at each other.
"Don't worry-"
Little Colour was dragged away by the medical plants' vines in the dark and had to fight again. The tianyin helmet was jumping around in her hands muttering, "Uppercut, right uppercut, hit there and there and hit some more there…"
Dongfang Minghui frowned. Fortunately, the plants in the dark had a weird temper, but none of them came to make trouble with her. The anxiety in her heart gradually settled in this quiet world. She felt that all the pores in her body were suddenly opened and abundant spiritual power poured into her continuously.
Wei Junlan hung upside down from a tree, watching the medical plants scuffle into a ball, she couldn't tell the difference between the enemy and Little Colour. However suddenly in this pitch-dark place, she saw green light gathering in one place little by little.
"Hey, Qian Wanyu, do you see that?"
"I see."
Qian Wanyu kept looking at Dongfang Minghui, she was relieved to see the other person calm down so quickly to cultivate, but soon, her heart was worried again.
Just when Dongfang Minghui closed her eyes and carefully felt the spiritual energy here, the group of medical plants hiding in the dark stuck out their heads one by one and boldly ran to Dongfang Minghui's side, either squatting or sitting down close to her. Some even stacked up on top of each other to get close.
"What are these medical plants trying to do?"
Little bean sprouts, who had been guarding Dongfang Minghui's side, stomped angrily, "Go away—go away—"
The pig fairy grass pulled its long tail a distance to push them back. After cleaning its tail, some timid medical plants got scared and shrank back again.
Seeing all this, Wei Junlan who was above was amazed, "These medicinal plants are all trying to cultivate right?"
"Perhaps."
However, one batch was driven away, and another batch came to take over, there were more and more medicinal plants gathering around. In the end, even the pig fairy grass was tired and its tail sweeping didn't have much effect, so it simply circled around the one meter area near Dongfang Minghui. Beyond this area, Pig Fairy grass would slap them back fiercely.
It was also the first time that Qian Wanyu had seen the Pig Fairy Grass being ruthless. It was truly unpredictable how strong the Pig Fairy grass was. A mutated medicinal plant was almost killed by it from a sweep of its pig tail. Soon afterwards, the medicinal plants did not dare to push forward, and kept a certain distance.
Dongfang Minghui couldn't feel anything happening in the outside world at all. She focused on making her spiritual power more pure. After she had purified it, it was as if a wall to her promotion had been broken. She could not longer suppress the outbreak of spiritual energy spilling out.
From the outside, the circle of green emanating from her body was getting bigger and bigger, from one meter to two meters… The halo illuminated the entire darkness. This kind of vision for ascending seemed very abnormal to Qian Wanyu making her a bit worried.
Little Colour had just defeated the annoying vines tangling it, and when she turned around, she found that she couldn't get close to Dongfang Minghui, because she was surrounded by hundreds of medicinal plants! They stayed all around her, looking like they were worshipping a god.
"Hey, Qian Wanyu, do you think Dongfang Minghui seems like she's exuding a kind of… divine aura, it's like—" Wei Junlan racked her brains, but couldn't find any words to describe this. If it was described in the biblical sense, it was as if Dongfang Minghui right now was an incarnation of Jesus and the plants worshipping her were her devout believers and apostles.
Chilled by her own thoughts, Wei Junlan didn't have the courage to continue this topic.
After hearing Wei Junlan's words, Qian Wanyu froze for a while. The doubts in her heart were magnified, she thought again and again, but couldn't help asking, "Qing Mo, you just said that obsidian soil will mutate many medicinal plants, what if…what if someone gets mutated by it?"
