Above the gray fog

Ten kilometers away, Lin Shan began to slow down. This distance was the safest and could ensure that he could quickly support the team behind him.

Feeling the distance between the flame and himself, Lin Shan always kept a distance of nearly ten kilometers from the last flame.

Suddenly, a spiritual fluctuation emerged.

Lin Shan looked around and finally found the source of the spiritual fluctuation at the root of a big tree.

"Hmm? Peppers?"

A spiritual plant was covered with fiery red peppers. This spiritual plant was only about twenty centimeters tall, and the peppers on it were also very small, but some of them were red and glowing.

This was the first time Lin Shan saw an alien plant that looked like an earth plant, and it was a spiritual plant, but... there were animals that looked like it, so it didn't matter if there were more plants.

"Is this also a seasoning? Or is it just a material needed for a certain sequence to be promoted? Will it produce new peppers every year if I take it back and transplant it?"

When Lin Shan saw this spiritual plant pepper, his mind was full of questions.

First of all, he was sure that this was a spiritual plant, not a spiritual medicine. The difference between spiritual plants and spiritual medicines was that spiritual plants had special functions, such as acting as potion materials, or had some additional effects, such as toxins, just like the mercury grass could exude mercury, while spiritual medicines were completely composed of pure spirituality, belonging to the natural treasures of heaven and earth. After taking them, they could refine spirituality and greatly increase the promotion effect.

Spiritual plants also had the effect of increasing spirituality, but the effect was just like eating spiritual meat, which required a long time to take effect, and was not as violent as spiritual medicines.

"If we collect more of these fruit-bearing spiritual plants, can we build a spiritual plant garden in the clan land...collect them once a year, and even if we are lucky, we can collect potion materials from them."

"Maybe that's what those big clans do."

"Even...raise evil and weird..."

"When the stone tablet is refreshed, the materials will be harvested directly from the clan land..."

Lin Shan shook his head and threw this not-so-good idea out of his mind. Being able to do this is equivalent to playing this terrifying gray fog world into a cultivation game...

Walked up to the spiritual plant and pulled it up by the roots. The spiritual plants of sequence 9 had no defense awareness, and even ordinary people could pick them at will. Even the plants of sequence 8 seemed to have no wisdom. For example, the spiritual medicine 'willow' and the spiritual plant 'ice fire candle flame grass' encountered before did not have self-awareness.

It seems that it is very difficult for plants to have consciousness.

He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have encountered a big tree that could move before, and cold sweat instantly flowed down. Could that person be a big guy! A tree that gave birth to consciousness!

"Buzz."

Just when Lin Shan was lost in thought, a deafening buzzing sound came.

Lin Shan looked up and saw bees, swarms of bees, but fortunately they were all pseudo-transcendents.

Those bees swooped down on him regardless of the pressure from him. There were hundreds of them, each the size of a fist.

Lin Shan did not move at all, the white flames on his body surged, the surrounding plants were all burned to ashes, the ground was cracked by the roasting, but the flames did not spread to other places at all.

Those fist-sized bees flew towards Lin Shan like moths, and turned into ashes the moment they came into contact with the flames. In just a moment, the buzzing sound completely disappeared.

"What's the reason?" Lin Shan was a little confused. These were just pseudo-transcendent bees. Not only did they pass through the pressure of Sequence 8, but they also wanted to sting him desperately.

"Could it be because of this spiritual plant?"

Lin Shan dispersed the cold flames wrapped around the spiritual plant and held it in front of his eyes.

There was nothing on it except the glowing red pepper. The problem was... there was no connection between bees and peppers.

He picked a fiery red pepper, hesitated for a moment, and took a light bite. He could suppress even poison with a sequence 9 spiritual plant.

"Crunch."

There was a crisp sound, followed by a burst of juice. An indescribable sweetness filled his mouth, and then a trace of spirituality flowed into his body, which had little effect on him.

"Sweet... sweet?" Lin Shan was stunned. He didn't expect sweet peppers.

Could it be that the group of bees came to collect pepper honey?

Perhaps this pepper was not sweet in nature, and the sweet pepper was the result of the hard work of the group of industrious bees.

The reason why the group of bees stung him desperately may have been found...

In any case, this spiritual plant now belongs to him.

Keep going forward.

Nine days later.

There are already four spiritual plants hanging behind Lin Shan. Various exotic flowers and plants look strange. Currently, only peppers look like plants on Earth. The other three spiritual plants have no fruits. I don't know if they can produce seeds.

Let's leave these to professionals to study. He knows nothing about plants, let alone spiritual plants.

In the past seven days, he has walked thousands of miles in a straight line. He didn't see any mushrooms, but he collected a lot of other spiritual plants.

At night, Lin Shan gathered everyone together to rest. Even Lin Shan didn't dare to move around casually on the foggy night. While the team rested, Lin Shan kept watch on the side. He also dealt with the occasional attacks.

"It takes too much time to find materials like this."

It was not until this time that he realized the amazing power of parchment. This was only a sequence 9 material. If it was a sequence 8 material, the distance of 100,000 miles would take years even if the speed was fast enough.

A month later.

At this time, Lin Shan was tired of such a life. He had been searching in this forest for a whole month. He had searched for nearly 4,000 miles. Another month would be enough to reach the end of the forest. He didn't believe that mushrooms grew in that sea of ​​blood.

During this period, Lin Shan returned to the clan land once and brought back more than ten spiritual plants on his body and gave them to Si Zhennan for research and cultivation. It is worth mentioning that the six spiritual medicines that he had not used up when he was promoted last time were also given to Si Zhennan. Now these spiritual medicines are growing well, but after so many years, the spirituality contained has not changed at all, and no seeds have been left. It seems that spiritual medicines, such natural treasures, cannot be planted in large quantities.

Spiritual plants are different. To Lin Shan's surprise, the human clan land already has a small piece of spiritual plant field, but spiritual plants can only grow on soil containing spirituality. This kind of "spiritual soil" is somewhat difficult to make, and spirituality needs to be replenished at any time. This is also the main factor that currently restricts the large-scale planting of spiritual plants.

Three more days.

Lin Shan, who was searching in the forest, suddenly felt that a flame connected to him was extinguished.

Then, a dark door appeared out of nowhere, and with a flash of red light, Lin Shan had already crossed several kilometers in the dark sky.

"Where is the danger?" Lin Shan asked immediately after crossing the dark door.

"Senior Lin, there is no danger, we found the 'Flowering Mushroom'!" An excited voice came.
