Chapter 291: Exploring the Mystic Realm
Bang! A brown stone, about the size of a child's fist, fell onto the ground in front of Zhuge Tianxin.
"Hmm." Seeing clearly what had fallen in front of him, Zhuge Tianxin's heart skipped a beat, and he felt somewhat excited. Because the stone that had fallen in front of him was actually the magic core of the Earth Earthworm he had just killed. This was a magic core of a Rank 10 magical beast, just one step away from being a Spirit Beast.
Containing his mind power in his hand, with a thought in his sea of consciousness, he used his mind power to suck the magic core on the ground into his hand. Feeling the surging energy coming from the magic core, Zhuge Tianxin also felt a burst of excitement in his heart. He instantly stored the magic core into his space ring, leaving no trace.
"Kid Tianxin, what are you spacing out for? Hurry up and pick the Seven-Colored Roland!" Just when Zhuge Tianxin was still immersed in the excitement of obtaining the Earth Earthworm's magic core, Weisi De Kai leaned into his ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Originally, Weisi De Kai wanted to pick the Seven-Colored Roland himself after seeing Zhuge Tianxin kill the Earth Earthworm, but he was stopped by Ye Qingyu. The reason was very simple: the Seven-Colored Roland was a Spirit Item medicinal herb and must have its own particularities. If picked blindly, it would very likely lead to the loss of medicinal efficacy, and it was even possible that the entire plant would wither, losing its medicinal efficacy completely and becoming a withered, useless grass. That was why he came to find Zhuge Tianxin.
"Oh, it's nothing. As long as the Seven-Colored Roland grows seven-colored petals, it can automatically absorb the spiritual power between heaven and earth to continue growing as long as it is kept moist. You just need to dig out all of its root system and soak its roots in water." In order to hide the matter of the Earth Earthworm's magic core, Zhuge Tianxin said immediately.
"What? You have to dig out all of the Seven-Colored Roland's root system? That's too difficult." Hearing Zhuge Tianxin's words, Weisi De Kai immediately felt it was difficult. He didn't have the ability to dig out all of the Seven-Colored Roland's root system, so he said with a grin to Zhuge Tianxin: "What would happen if the Seven-Colored Roland's root system isn't completely dug out?"
Hearing Weisi De Kai's words, Zhuge Tianxin immediately smiled helplessly and said: "If the Seven-Colored Roland's root system cannot be completely dug out, even if the Seven-Colored Roland can survive, it will lose part of its medicinal efficacy and may even be downgraded to a Spirit Item medicinal herb."
"What? That won't do! We worked so hard to kill the guardian beast, and even almost lost our lives, all for the Seven-Colored Roland, which is a Spirit Item medicinal herb. How can we let it become a Spirit Item?" Hearing Zhuge Tianxin say that the Seven-Colored Roland would become a Spirit Item medicinal herb due to the loss of medicinal efficacy, Weisi De Kai immediately refused a hundred times over. He shook his head like a rattle-drum and then said: "Kid Zhuge, do you have any way to dig out all of the Seven-Colored Roland's root system?"
"You can't do it?" Zhuge Tianxin said, very surprised.
"Uh... although I can't do it now, in the future, I will definitely break through to the Divine Realm. By then, such a small matter won't even require me to lift a hand." Weisi De Kai said, somewhat embarrassed.
"If you can't, you can't. Why say so much? Hypocritical." At this time, Brother Zhuge Xun had already walked over. Hearing Weisi De Kai's words, he directly struck him down mercilessly.
"Uh..." Weisi De Kai said awkwardly. Afterward, he immediately turned and whispered to Zhuge Tianxin: "Kid Tianxin, hurry up and collect the Seven-Colored Roland. They're going to have opinions." After speaking, he didn't forget to look in the direction of Lei Dun and the others, clearly reminding Zhuge Tianxin that Lei Dun and the others were still there.
"Alright." Zhuge Tianxin also knew that Weisi De Kai had no way to dig out all of the Seven-Colored Roland's root system, so he didn't say anything more. Then, he slowly closed his eyes, activated the sensing power in his sea of consciousness, and reached deep into the ground, slowly sensing along the Seven-Colored Roland's branches toward the roots underground, first the main root, then the side roots, then the root hairs, probing clearly bit by bit.
He activated Earth-style magic, and bits of moist soil wrapped around the Seven-Colored Roland's root system. Like magnets repelling other soil, it slowly detached from the soil and left the ground, then hovered half a meter above the ground.
"Alright, you go and collect the Seven-Colored Roland." After doing this, Zhuge Tianxin said to Weisi De Kai.
"Me?" Weisi De Kai asked, as if he couldn't believe it.
"Didn't you always want the Seven-Colored Roland? Then go ahead. Collect it first, and when the time comes, we'll all discuss how to distribute it." Zhuge Tianxin said.
And just as Zhuge Tianxin finished speaking, the expressions on the faces of Lei Dun and the others also relaxed somewhat. Clearly, they also valued the Seven-Colored Roland very much. However, hindered by Zhuge Tianxin's performance when killing the Earth Earthworm, they didn't say anything, but that didn't mean they weren't tempted by the Seven-Colored Roland. Now that Zhuge Tianxin said he would distribute it to them when the time came, their hearts naturally relaxed a bit.
"Alright." Weisi De Kai said with some heartache upon hearing Zhuge Tianxin's words. Clearly, Weisi De Kai didn't want to share the benefits of the Seven-Colored Roland with Lei Dun and the others in his heart, but since Zhuge Tianxin had said so, he had nothing to say. He had to walk toward the Seven-Colored Roland hovering half a meter above the ground, take a porcelain bottle from his space ring, which was filled with water up to the neck, then place the hovering Seven-Colored Roland into the porcelain bottle, and finally, with a flash of white light, collect the porcelain bottle along with the Seven-Colored Roland into his space ring.
"Alright, the Seven-Colored Roland has been obtained. I'll go look around, observe the surrounding environment first, and then discuss what to do next." Seeing that Weisi De Kai had already collected the Seven-Colored Roland, Zhuge Tianxin said. After speaking, he walked in one direction, then walked around the surroundings, starting to observe the terrain.
Before long, Zhuge Tianxin had finished observing the terrain and returned to the place just now. The others had already returned here one step ahead of him, waiting for him. Clearly, they were waiting for him to discuss the next action. After all, they were also here for the first time, unfamiliar with the place, and had to stick together to minimize risks.
"Everyone is here. You should have also explored the environment yourselves. If you have any thoughts, everyone, speak up." Zhuge Tianxin came to everyone's side, found a place to sit down, and said.
"Kid Tianxin, is the direction we are advancing really the direction of the giant ice lotus that the Frost Flame Wolf mentioned?" Weisi De Kai said to Zhuge Tianxin, who was walking in front. They had been walking for a long time, but there was no bone-chilling cold feeling that the Frost Flame Wolf had mentioned; instead, it was getting hotter and hotter, as if the direction they were advancing toward was a desert. ===== CHAPTER 292 =====
