I Live Forever With My Proficiency

Chapter 219 Wrong Herb Collection

One day in late spring.

After Chen Ping and Yun Haitang discussed it, they finally decided to set out to collect herbs.

Before setting off, Chen Ping arranged more traps for the tunnel in the house and told Yu Lingchun how to activate and circumvent them one by one.

There are two formations in the house and a hidden tunnel.

Normally, as long as you don't act too recklessly, you'll be fine.

"This medicine collection is in Qingyun Territory. I will go back as soon as possible, within a few days at most. You should go out as little as possible." Chen Ping pulled a strand of black hair around Yu Lingchun's ear.

"Don't worry, husband. Have you brought all the evil-killing talisman, divine pill, and miasma pill?" Yu Lingchun reminded.

At this time, Yu Lingchun's first concern was the safety of her husband, which made Chen Ping feel warm in her heart.

"I brought them all." Chen Ping smiled.

…

In the early morning, Chen Ping and Yun Haitang left the city in a low-key manner. They did not wield swords in the city, but walked around casually, just like regular patrols.

Try not to let others know that you are going out to collect medicine.

Lingxiao Sect does not limit the specific time for each person to travel to collect herbs. Everyone can make their own arrangements, which greatly facilitates the monks.

For example, Ji Yan was injured the year before and has not fully recovered yet. This is not the best time to travel and can be postponed to other seasons.

Because of this, everyone’s travel time is different.

By hiding your whereabouts, you won't be ambushed or plotted by others.

Walking on the dilapidated streets, Chen Ping discovered that after a severe cold winter, the monks walking by had become even more aimless, as if they had lost hope in life.

From time to time, you can see traces of fighting on the streets and the houses on both sides.

It records the cruelty of this immortal city.

"Chen...Senior Chen."

When Chen Ping and Yun Haitang were walking on a street, a voice came from the yard of a house.

Chen Ping was stunned for a moment and looked for his voice. He saw a female nun standing in the courtyard.

Only then did he discover that it was Mo Xuebi, the Taoist monk from Lu Zhengzhong who lived next door to him when he first came to Yunzhong City more than ten years ago.

But at this time, Mo Xuebi looked even more vicissitudes of life.

Her originally large and exaggerated breasts seemed to have shrunk a bit.

At this time, she was holding a bowl, obviously eating breakfast, but she was no longer eating Demonic Beast meat and spiritual rice.

But some fruits and vegetables.

…Is life so tight for Independent Cultivators today? … Chen Ping’s heart tightened and he asked:

"This is Fellow Daoist Mo. Where is your Lao Lu?"

"He... left half a year ago." At this point, half of the light in Mo Xuebi's eyes disappeared instantly.

She then forced a smile:

"I went out with other Fellow Daoists to collect herbs half a year ago and never came back. Maybe. Maybe I'm still alive."

Chen Ping nodded.

He hasn't been seen for half a year, how can he still be alive?

It's no wonder that Mo Xuebi eats fruits and vegetables. In this world, men are superior to women, and the man is usually in charge of money in the family. Once Lu Zhengzhong leaves, the family's savings will naturally disappear.

These days, with high prices, Independent Cultivator is having a hard time.

"Maybe I'll come back sometime." Chen Ping smiled reluctantly and encouraged her.

Such deaths may not be rare.

How could Mo Xuebi not know how cruel reality is? How could he not know that Lao Lu was dead?

She just smiled and didn't expose each other.

After chatting for a few more words, Mo Xuebi said sadly:

"Senior Chen, can we still leave Qingyun Territory alive?"

When she said this, tears suddenly filled her charming peach blossom eyes uncontrollably.

Not only her, but several surrounding families also looked at Chen Ping after hearing this.

Chen Ping was even more stagnant.

yes.

Can I still leave Qingyun Domain?

In terms of strength, he can't answer this. He is just a mid-stage Foundation Building, trying to survive in crises. How can he have the ability to decide whether he can get out of the Qingyun Domain?

Chen Ping took a deep breath and smiled relaxedly:

"You can definitely do it, live well."

Only by living can there be hope for the future.

Chen Ping didn't talk any more and said goodbye under Mo Xuebi's gaze.

In fact, Mo Xuebi's situation is not an exception.

The high cost of living makes life even more difficult for these monks.

The missing Divine Pill makes people's evil side burst out at any time.

The reputation of Lingxiao Sect is also gradually declining.

With the blessing of the three, robbery and fighting became more and more blatant.

For many monks, living is a luxury.

"I hope it gets better and better." Chen Ping took a deep breath.

Yun Haitang remained silent.

After a while, he said:

"I heard that after the demonic intention is ignited, if it is not suppressed by the Divine Pill, the monk will completely lose himself and fall into the devil's way within six or seven years. Now, it is quite difficult to see no way to break the situation."

"Yes, cultivating immortality is never easy." Chen Ping said calmly.

He said that, but in fact, if he didn't need to go out to collect medicine, it wouldn't be difficult for him.

He has enough spiritual rice and Demonic Beast meat.

The Divine Pill is enough to wake you up.

He even unexpectedly got a spiritual vein Cave Mansion that he always dreamed of.

The painted talismans are also more valuable.

As long as you stay in the house and don't come out, it's not a big deal.

…

The two walked out of Luoyue City and continued walking into the forest for more than ten miles before taking off with their swords.

"Whoosh" and headed southwest.

Choosing to go to the southwest was Yun Haitang's decision based on the Yun family's previous experience in collecting herbs.

The Yun family has been collecting medicinal herbs for hundreds of years, and they know where the spiritual plants in the Qingyun Domain are relatively abundant.

This is the benefit of traveling with Yun Haitang to collect herbs.

The destination is close to the Western Barbarian Territory, but further south. The forest there is a swampland further south. The climate is humid and warm all year round, and it is a natural place for spiritual plants to grow.

The destination is about 1,600 miles away from Lingxiao Sect.

Chen Ping's sword-wielding skills were "perfect" and there was no drag on him, so he was very fast.

Since Yun Haitang entered the Foundation Building Late Stage, her spiritual power reserves have greatly increased, and her speed is not slow either.

"How are you? Do you want to slow down a little? Or stop and rest for a while?" Chen Ping asked her halfway.

Yun Haitang's face was slightly red due to the continuous use of her spiritual power. Her sword-wielding skills were incomparable to Chen Ping's. It was a bit difficult at extreme speeds, but she was fine when she saw Chen Ping on the fourth floor of the Foundation Building. She was too embarrassed to admit defeat first. :

"It's okay, everything depends on me."

She was a little surprised that Chen Ping was so proficient in sword control. She thought...

The boy in front of me has grown up.

He is no longer the young boy behind her who couldn't even stand steady when wielding a sword.

After supplementing the Qi Gathering Pill, the two of them reached their southwest destination in half a day, even if they moved forward cautiously.

Then he landed cautiously.

"Let's take a look at the forest in this area first. The spiritual energy here is good, it is relatively remote, and the soil is fertile. There should be many spiritual plants." Yun Haitang said softly.

Chen Ping naturally agrees.

He first observed the surroundings. The forest here was denser than that near Lingxiao Sect. The big trees blocked the sky and the sun. Even if he walked down below, he would hardly see any sunlight during the day.

The humidity in the air is very high.

Chen Ping took a picture of the righteousness talisman he drew and measured that the demonic aura here was much richer than that in Luoyue City, and even several times richer than in Cave Mansion, his spiritual vein.

"We have to fight quickly, we shouldn't stay here for too long."

Chen Ping swallowed a Divine Pill and a Miasma Pill.

"I'll give you the Law Weapon. The cloud-winged bird's perception range is limited after all. The Law Weapon can detect more than two miles away. I have some experience in collecting herbs. I can find spiritual plants without the Law Weapon." Just as Chen Ping was thinking, Yun Haitang's came the voice.

Two miles?

Hearing this, Chen Ping originally wanted to ridicule her Law Weapon for being such a cloud-winged bird, but when he saw her sincere face, her nose was slightly raised, and the blush on her face caused by the sword had not dissipated, she was really cute. .

The teasing words reached his lips and he swallowed them again.

"Take the Law Weapon yourself. My bird...the cloud-winged bird is okay. I'll hurry up and find the spiritual materials." Chen Ping said.

"Yeah." Yun Haitang was not pretentious.

Chen Ping and the two immediately went forward to explore.

The cloud-winged bird flies right in front of Chen Ping and can accurately explore a distance of more than three miles.

After burning the incense, suddenly, the cloud-winged bird flew quickly in one direction. Chen Ping quickly followed it and finally stopped at the root of a big tree three miles away.

Cloud-winged birds chirped and flapped their wings.

Chen Ping walked over, dug through the dense bushes, and found a fern in a hidden place below.

This spiritual plant likes shade.

...The cloud-winged bird really works! !

If it is really up to the herbalist to identify it, this environment is too hidden, and it may not be possible to find it.

Yun Haitang, who was following, silently measured the distance, then looked at the Law Weapon in his hand, and suddenly felt that the Law Weapon did not smell good at all.

Chen Ping dug up the fern with the soil and roots, carefully wrapped it and put it in the Entering Spirit planting bag.

The spiritual plant bag is given out by Lingxiao Sect when teaching, one for each person, and is specially used to place spiritual plants.

I continued exploring like this for an hour.

The two didn't get much.

Except for the one found by Chen Ping, no more ferns have been found since then, and no frostbeard purple pods have been found since.

Not only Chen Ping, but also Yun Haitang.

Yun Haitang mainly looked for blue frost grass and warm vine, but found nothing, not a single one.

‘Something’s wrong. ’

Since this area is a spiritual plant-rich area, the density of spiritual plants will not be so low.

I've been looking for it for an hour.

"Come and take a look here. According to what you knew during the previous teaching, this environment should be the survival ecology of blue frost grass, and there are indeed traces of being dug here. This is not surprising. People who collect medicine are like this It’s normal to have too many.”

"But if you look at the soil and the surrounding area, do you see any clues?" Chen Ping carefully inspected a spiritual plant den.

Yun Haitang knelt down next to Chen Ping and looked carefully.

But I still don’t know why:

"What a clue?"

Chen Ping narrowed his eyes and took a breath:

"This place has been deliberately destroyed by someone who aims to completely destroy the living ecology of the blue frost grass."

this…

…It’s not normal!
