After I failed, I became the darling of the entire sect’s genius group.

"Help!"

Fu Zishan's hands and feet were restrained, and she was startled by the big mouth that appeared out of thin air. She even forgot to use her spiritual power for a while, and was so frightened that she screamed repeatedly.

Liang Lingzhu immediately came to help, while Mu Xiuwen stayed in place to protect Su Shiyuan and Shangguan Lingxi.

"call out--"

The vines were cut off by Liang Lingzhu's sword, and Fu Zishan fell to the ground, panicking and trying to climb out of the dark area.

But as soon as she got up, she felt a stumble under her feet before she could stand firmly. She fell to the ground in a panic with a "pop", and vines flew towards her crazily from all directions.

Liang Lingzhu raised her sword to respond to the enemy, but at some point a vine wrapped around her ankle. Almost instantly, Liang Lingzhu noticed that the spiritual power in her body was losing crazily.

Liang Lingzhu's fighting power weakened, and Fu Zishan on the side was soon entangled in vines again. The vines seemed to be shackles as hard as iron, tightly restraining Fu Zishan, making it impossible for her to break free.

Suddenly, a strong force came from the ground, and with a sudden pull, Fu Zishan was pulled towards the terrifying and ferocious mouth just now.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Fu Zishan was so frightened that she let out high-pitched screams.

Shangguan Lingxi exclaimed, looking at a loss. She seemed to want to step forward to help, but she was also a little scared.

But this reaction is very suitable for her 8-year-old age.

As for Su Shiyuan, he didn't like Fu Zishan in the first place, and he was too lazy to care about her life and death. She yawned lazily and half leaned on the bed, as if everything in front of her had nothing to do with her.

But only Su Shiyuan knew that she had been secretly watching Shangguan Lingxi's movements.

If she guessed correctly, the things with vines flying everywhere in front of her were Shangguan Lingxi's plant-based spiritual pet, the Soul-Eating Vine.

It’s just that in the original work, wasn’t this soul-eating vine an opportunity that the heroine only got when she was in her 20s?

How would it appear here?

"Hey, isn't this the soul-devouring vine that only exists on the edge of the Demonic Realm? Why does it appear in the world of immortal cultivation?"

Zhu Ying's voice suddenly sounded in Su Shiyuan's mind.

"You know this thing?"

"We know you. During the day, I felt like this thing was taking you in circles."

"..."

Su Shiyuan tried to sound calm.

"Then why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"You didn't even ask."

Zhu Ying's twitchy tone rang in Su Shiyuan's mind, and she was so angry that she immediately released it from the space bracelet, raised her hand and threw it into the center of the pile of spirit-devouring vines.

With a "pop" sound, it was inserted into the bloody mouth, and the blue juice flowed out from the strange-shaped vine in an instant.

"Smelly brat! Ah... Bah, bah, bah! This thing is so disgusting!"

"Grass, its juice is on me!"

Zhu Ying's cursing voice reached Su Shiyuan's mind, but she turned a deaf ear and lay back on the bed leisurely.

Fu Zishan, who was about to be eaten over there, was saved by this sudden sword.

She looked at Su Shiyuan in surprise, wondering how that annoying kid could save her.

The stabbed Soul-Eating Vine struggled and twisted, and the thick vines twitched everywhere.

One of the vines was about to hit Liang Lingzhu's back. When Mu Xiuwen saw it, he couldn't bear it anymore. He came behind Liang Lingzhu in a flash and blocked the blow for her.

"Careful! Don't get caught in it!"

Liang Lingzhu reminded him loudly.

But that weird vine had no intention of attacking them again, and instead took the opportunity to slip away as soon as it broke free from Zhu Ying.

Liang Lingzhu and the two were stunned.

The clues were quickly discovered. The vine seemed to be very afraid of the silver sword thrown by Su Shiyuan.

Seeing that the crisis was over, Liang Lingzhu, who was holding on for a breath, lost his strength and fell from the air.

Mu Xiuwen was shocked and quickly flew forward to catch the falling Liang Lingzhu.

"Senior Sister Liang, how are you?"

He asked with concern, raising his hand to check Liang Lingzhu's pulse.

The weak Liang Lingzhu wanted to stop it, but in the end he acquiesced to Mu Xiuwen's behavior.

It didn't matter that this pulse was taken, it made Mu Xiuwen take a breath of surprise.

"Lingzhu, how come your cultivation level is so bad?"

In desperation, Mu Xiuwen called out Liang Lingzhu's name.

Seeing him so panicked, a blush appeared on Liang Lingzhu's originally pale cheeks.

Mu Xiuwen realized that fortunately there was no one else around and she didn't hear the intimate address he just called her.

He checked Liang Lingzhu's pulse again, but got the same result.

"Your cultivation has actually dropped to the middle stage of Golden Core?! How could this happen?"

Liang Lingzhu told Mu Xiuwen that the vines that had just fought could absorb spiritual power.

Mu Xiuwen's face was solemn when he heard this, and his heart was filled with guilt.

Fu Zishan was in danger just now, and he was the only male cultivator here, so he should be the one to rescue him. However, Liang Lingzhu saw that Mu Xiuwen didn't like Fu Zishan, so he left him to protect Shangguan Lingxi and Su Shiyuan.

Unexpectedly, this trip actually caused Liang Lingzhu's cultivation to drop by two small realms!

You know, Liang Lingzhu was already at the Golden Elixir Great Perfection, and was one step away from reaching the Nascent Soul.

Seeing that he was blaming himself, Liang Lingzhu comforted him and said:

"Nothing, this is only temporary. When the spiritual power is restored later, the realm will naturally be restored."

Mu Xiuwen smiled bitterly and nodded.

But he knew in his heart that it would never be so easy to recover.

So much spiritual power was lost all at once. Without the help of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, it would probably take half a year at the earliest to fully recover.

Mu Xiuwen suddenly regretted that he had auctioned the two Bailing Fruits in his hand in exchange for resources to maintain the spirit sword.

Otherwise, if Liang Lingzhu takes the two Bailing Fruits, most of his spiritual power will be restored immediately.

"Senior Sister Liang, don't worry. Once I have news about Bailingguo, I will notify you as soon as possible!" Mu Xiuwen solemnly promised.

At this moment, Fu Zishan climbed up from the grass and happened to hear Mu Xiuwen's words as he walked by.

She subconsciously closed her Qiankun bag.

She happened to have two Bailing Fruits in her Qiankun Bag, but she didn't want to take them out and give them to that cold Liang Lingzhu!

Besides, she herself also had a lot of spiritual power sucked away.

"call out--"

Zhu Ying flew past her, bringing up a strong wind that blew Fu Zishan to the ground.

"you……"

When Zhu Ying heard someone calling him, he immediately changed his direction and flew back with a "whoosh", the sharp sword tip pointed directly at Fu Zishan's eyebrows.

The only thing missing from that menacing appearance were the words "You'd better be fine" written on the sword.

Fu Zishan, who had just gotten up, was so frightened that she fell to the ground and subconsciously begged for mercy and praised:

"You fly so fast!"
