Chapter 225: Poor Only Child

Chapter 225: Poor Only Child

"Why do we have to protect the forest? There is no benefit for you to stay here?" Qin Baiqing didn't understand.

She gave her spiritual power directly to the medicine spirit, and when it ate it without hesitation, she asked in confusion: "I can give you a lot of spiritual power and help you purify the pollution, as long as you follow me."

"No, no. This is my home. I can't go with you."

The spirit swallowed up the spiritual power in two or three bites. It patted the ground with satisfaction and said proudly: "I am the biggest herb here. The other herbs are my brothers and sisters. I protect them!"

"I have to wait until they are all formed." It explained to Qin Baiqing seriously.

"Have they all become spirits?"

Seeing the medicine spirit nodding heavily with confidence, Qin Baiqing couldn't bear to tell it the truth. But she knew in her heart that the medicine spirit was destined to be the only lonely seedling.

The nutrients in each area were fixed, and the entire Xiangjue Forest area was filled with too many large and small medicinal herbs, so they were destined to compete for nutrients. As they walked along, they saw that the various medicinal herbs were clearly separated, which was already the best result.

However, the medicine essence was too powerful. Its existence took away too many nutrients from the Xiangjue Forest. Under the suppression of the medicine essence, it was difficult for other medicinal herbs to have enough strength to cultivate into shape again and become the so-called younger brothers and sisters of the medicine essence.

Poor Du Miaomiao... Qin Baiqing saw that the medicine spirit was full of confidence and couldn't bear to expose him.

She paused and simply asked about her purpose, "We are looking for a well, a well with the scent of medicine. Have you seen it? It is said to be here."

"You are looking for the ancient elixir well!" The medicine spirit was instantly filled with hostility.

"Yes," Qin Baiqing saw that it had become famous, and finally saw the dawn of victory. With shining eyes, she asked, "Do you know the whereabouts of the Ancient Dan Well? We will leave after we find it and will not disturb you!"

"It's all because of that broken well!" The medicine spirit seemed to be reminded of something sad.

He was so angry that he could hardly suppress the pollution in his body.

He took another mouthful of Qin Baiqing's spiritual power to calm his mind, then complained aggrievedly and angrily: "It's all because of the pollution that keeps coming out of that well. I was worried that my immature brothers and sisters would be polluted, so I had to suppress it myself. That's why I accidentally let the pollution invade my body and became like this!"

As the only seedling in the Xiangjue Forest, the medicine spirit had no choice but to choose one medicinal herb to carry all.

It has become what it is now, a person who can easily become unstable between good and evil if not carefully treated, extremely susceptible to pollution, and willing to kill intruders.

It kind of despises itself.

"I am no longer a clean herb...real herb won't kill people!"

"Oh, don't cry." Qin Baiqing tried hard to comfort the tearful medicine spirit.

As soon as the medicinal herbs cried, the whole space was filled with a bitter taste. She quickly patted her chest to comfort the medicinal essence, "I can help you. It's okay to pollute it. As long as I take action, it will be purified soon. By then, you and your brothers and sisters will be safe!"

"Don't cry." She gave out a ball of spiritual power.

If I keep crying, I will be unable to hold back and want to escape. It’s too painful!

"Wow... Then I'll take you to the wellhead now. Pollution has been coming out from there, and I can't hold on any longer," he explained shamefully, "That's why I attacked you the moment I saw you."

Its purpose has always been to guard the wellhead and prevent pollution from overflowing, but now its mind has been affected, and it will regard the intruder as someone who is blocking it, so it attacked in anger.

Along the way, Qin Baiqing was afraid that it would cry again, so she assured herself that there would be no problem!

But she didn't expect that the well mouth was actually in the deepest part of the vines of the medicine essence, and was firmly suppressed by its vines. It was really strictly guarded, and no trace of pollution was leaked out. Through the vines, Qin Baiqing barely identified the location of the well mouth.

"I really took it down?" Yao Jing asked hesitantly, "There are a lot of contaminants. Are you...really okay?"

Seeing Qin Baiqing nodded again and began to brew spiritual energy, Yao Jing pointed his finger and said, "If I don't withdraw it, I won't be able to hold on for much longer. I believe you this time!" He finally decisively withdrew the vines.

Pollution burst out instantly.

Large tracts of vines were retracted. It was a bit difficult for Yao Jing to retract so many vines in an instant. At the same time, he looked at the pollution in horror, which was several times more than when he suppressed it in the first place, and he was a little panicked.

Before we know it, pollution has increased a lot more than before...

So much so that the moment the vines were withdrawn, the pollution gushed out like a spring, with unstoppable force, almost occupying the entire space.

Too much pollution also began to affect the mind of the medicine spirit.

It became mentally unstable again and struggled to suppress the polluting power that was trying to control itself. Its last hope was on Qin Baiqing. It gritted its teeth and struggled to control its vines to prevent itself from attacking Qin Baiqing.

"Ahhhh!!!" The painful scream of the medicine essence penetrated the space, causing countless medicinal herbs in the outside world to become restless.

"not good!"

Qi Pulan discovered that the surrounding vines were stirring again, and many medicinal herbs actually crossed the medicine spirit's territory and attacked the two of them!

The two were besieged again.

"Something is wrong," Qi Pulan felt the uneasy breath of the vines and said in a deep voice, "Something happened down there. When the herbs are in an uneasy state, they will subconsciously expel foreign objects. We are the outsiders!"

It's not just them.

The two looked at each other and looked in the direction where Qin Baiqing went deeper.

She will also be attacked by the invaders if she is in the middle of it!
"It's not a big problem, it's not a big problem..." Qin Baiqing comforted herself at the ancient Dan Well, took a deep breath and said confidently: "I'm very strong now. I needed to call for help before, but now I don't need to. Just look, I can solve it by myself!"

Then he acted decisively, releasing tremendous spiritual power, directly wrapping up all the surging pollution, imprisoning it in his own spiritual power, and then tightening it more and more.

In the end, he actually compressed all the pollution in front of himself, and while circulating his spiritual power, he directly absorbed the polluted spiritual power into his body, trying to use the ninth kind of spiritual power in his body to fight against it and complete the purification within his body.

The consequence of doing so is that her meridians will be continuously widened by the strong pollution. The severe pain makes Qin Baiqing break out in a cold sweat. The pollution rages in her body, and after sensing the danger, they want to break out of her body one by one, leaving wounds all over her body.

Blood oozes out from deep within the body.

The body was damaged by pollution and then repaired by spiritual energy. Through repeated cycles, the pollution gradually decreased and was purified into spiritual power that Qin Baiqing could use.

After several cycles, Qin Baiqing realized that his cultivation was improving.

She saw hope and continued to absorb more pollution. At the same time, Yao Jing woke up and saw what Qin Baiqing was doing. He tried to stop her and said, "You can't do this. You will die if you do this!"

It has only just begun and her body is almost exploding. If she continues, her flesh will only burst.

"It's okay, I... have experience," Qin Baiqing took a breath with difficulty and showed a pale smile, "Contaminated spiritual energy is still spiritual energy, I can use it after cleaning it."
