There was a breeze blowing from nowhere, and there was a sweet and sour smell in the faint lotus fragrance.

goo-dong-

The smell drifted into the nostrils, and Qu Zhong subconsciously swallowed his saliva, saliva secreted from his mouth, attracting him to find out the source.

"What a dangerous smell!"

There are many kinds of spirit beasts in the secret realm, and this untrodden place is probably more dangerous.

If there is no purpose, Qu Zhong might go in to have a look, but now for the mission, he can only endure his curiosity and plan to turn back to the shore.

There was a silver light curtain behind him. Just as Qu Zhong raised his left foot, the lotus leaf under his feet fell down a bit as if consciously, making it impossible for his raised leg to step ashore.

"Ok?"

Retracting his left leg, Qu Zhong lowered his head and looked at the soles of his feet with some doubts: "If you have spiritual consciousness, take me to find that fragrance."

Swah——

As if he understood Qu Zhong's words, the lotus leaf suddenly rose up to the same height as the lotus flower, and then began to slowly move towards the depths of the lotus pond.

"I was just joking..." Qu Zhong stabilized his shaking figure, then looked up to the front, "Can you take me back?"

"..."

This time, the lotus leaf ignored him, and just moved towards the depth at a constant speed. The lotus leaf encountered in front of him would automatically separate, giving Qu Zhong a narrow path.

But his sight still couldn't see the situation in front of him clearly, there were only occasional light spots of various colors flying by in his peripheral vision, and the speed was so fast that he couldn't see what it was at all.

"This lotus leaf doesn't really have intelligence!"

Not knowing when he would reach his destination, Qu Zhong simply sat down cross-legged, and even got more playful, stretching out his fingers to poke the surface of the lotus leaf.

no movement...

Except for the sound of lotus leaf poles passing through the water, there is no sound around, let alone the existence of life.

Crash - clatter -

Accompanied by the sound of water, the sweet and sour smell became stronger and stronger, and the front suddenly became brighter, and three plants glowing with blue light appeared in front of them,

And those huge lotus leaves are like guardians, forming a neat circle. There is a gap of more than two meters between the plants and the lotus leaves, and there is only green pool water in the middle.

Intricate red patterns grow on the blue plants, as if painted on them.

The lotus leaf carrying Qu Zhong floated straight to the side of the plant and then stopped steadily. As long as he stretched out his hand at will, he could pick the spiritual herb in front of him.

"This is..." The blue light around the plant is filled with aura, and the sweet and sour breath is from it. Qu Zhong stretched out his fingers and tapped the leaf surface, and the red pattern on the leaf surface suddenly appeared. Bursts of red light.

Feeling quite interesting, I rubbed it with my thumb a few times, and the leaf surface seemed to feel itchy, and the leaf curled and trembled slightly.

"You don't have wisdom, do you?" He just stretched out two fingers and continued to scratch, while Qu Zhong stared at the movement under the emerald water: "If you don't have wisdom, I'll pick it."

"..."

Except for the spirit grass that was shaking even more, the surrounding area was still as quiet as before.

Is it a mimosa?Stopping his hands, Qu Zhong guessed that this plant was not recorded in the Pharmacopoeia, so he didn't know what it was.

But with this abundant aura, it must be a good thing.

"If you don't speak, I will take it as your acquiescence."

"..."

"Then I'll take it."

Taking out the short sword in the space, Qu Zhong paused for a while, and finally put the sword next to the pole, making a look of cutting it off.

"..."

There was still no response, these plants stood quietly in the water as they had just seen at the beginning.

"That's all." Withdrawing the short sword in his hand, Qu Zhong squeezed the center of his brows, and said to himself: "Anyway, you are not a fifth-level herbal medicine, and it's useless to take you, so let's stay here. "

He said this to himself, although he knew that the spirit grass was a good thing, but the few swings just now always made Qu Zhong feel that the grass had already possessed spiritual wisdom.

If he really picked it, wouldn't it be like killing people.

Cultivation/Spiritual herbs in the real world want to cultivate spiritual wisdom, which is no different from going to the blue sky. Compared with humans and spirit beasts, they can only increase their cultivation base by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

You have to be lucky, and you can survive without being encountered by other monks. In this comprehension continent, for tens of thousands of years, there has been no spirit grass that can cultivate a human body with this.

As for the opening of spiritual consciousness, there is no record in ancient books, so no one knows if there is such a situation.

"Next time, don't bring people over so easily."

Gently tapping the leaves at the top, Qu Zhong smiled slightly, and the little greed left in his heart completely disappeared.

These spiritual grasses should have been protected by the spiritual barrier in front of them, so they survived, and they were not recorded in the map.

"Please take me back to shore."

Patting the lotus leaves under his legs, Qu Zhong said dumbfoundedly, looking helplessly at the several meters of pool water in the middle.

Why can't he fly now...

The lotus leaf didn't respond, but the water surface rippled at this moment, and the ripples rippled around with the spirit grass as the center, getting bigger and more turbulent with each circle.

But no matter how big the waves were, the lotus leaves under him fluttered with the ripples, but stood firmly in place.

wow-

The plants moved...they rose higher and higher against the green lake water...

Qu Zhong: "..."

A giant blue snake's head slowly protruded from the water, the scales on its body glowed with a cold blue light, and the three blue plants grew on top of its head.

It just showed its head, and it is already five or six meters high. I don't know how long its underwater body can be.

But Qu Zhong just looked at the snake stupidly, without any feeling of fear.

It's just... so cute.

Its huge snake head has a pair of big black and white eyes. The eyes already occupy two-thirds of the face. The black eyes are round, and there is no creepy feeling when looking at Qu Zhong.

And the three spirit grasses on top of its head were like dull hairs, swaying on top of its head as it moved.

Those big eyes were full of doubts looking at Qu Zhong, his head tilted to the left and then tilted again and again, as if he didn't understand a lot.

One person and one snake looked at each other for a long time, until the surrounding water had calmed down, a childish voice sounded in Qu Zhong's ear: "Why don't you play here more?"

"Play?" Qu Zhong raised his head and laughed twice, "I came in because of a mission, so I have to go now."

"Then...why don't you pick the spirit grass again?"

"Isn't that part of your body? I'll hurt you if I take it off."

"Is that so..."

As if digesting what Qu Zhong said, the snake didn't move for a long time.

"I'm leaving first, I have other things to do, so you just stay here obediently and practice and don't go out."

The time to pick herbs is only three days, and since he already knows that the spirit beasts here have no hostility towards him, Qu Zhong doesn't plan to spend it here.

Since the lotus leaf didn't move, he had to open the space ring to find some useful instruments.

"What's it like outside?"

After a long while, the snake finally started to speak, and the words were full of doubts and longing.

While taking out the magic weapon, Qu Zhong replied casually: "You are still young, the outside world is very cruel, you will know it when you grow up."

Hearing the sound of the snake, Qu Zhong guessed that it should be still young, although...it doesn't look small.

"Master! Take me with you."

"What?" Qu Zhong was startled, his thinking was a little confused: "What do you call me?"

"Master! The sage of heaven told me that as long as someone comes in and leaves empty-handed, that person is my master." Wiggling the spirit grass on his head, the snake continued, "So you are my master."

"..."

"cocoa……"

But after a long time, Qu Zhong couldn't find a reason to reject the snake, scratched his head, and said in a confused way: "I already have several spirit beasts."

"Owner……"

The giant snake's spiritual consciousness produced huge fluctuations, and the water surface began to ripple again and again, and the surrounding lotus leaves slowly began to turn yellow.

"Hey, hey, don't get excited."

Seeing that the lotus leaves under him had started to wither, Qu Zhong was startled, and immediately stretched out his hand and shouted: "Is it okay to recognize it, recognize it!"

Anyway, I have already raised several spirit beasts, and there will be one more.

The surrounding scenery turned yellow, and the giant snake slowly lowered its head and came towards Qu Zhong, and a light blue spar slowly floated out of the spirit grass above its head.

The spar was the size of an egg, and it floated to Qu Zhong's hand with a sweet and sour taste.

The snake's spiritual consciousness sounded: "Master, hold the ice crystal."

Qu Zhong held it according to his words, a burst of warmth soaked into the palm of his hand, and slowly spread to his heart along the palm of his left hand, and the last engraving of complex lines floated out from Qu Zhong's chest.

The engraved mark went straight towards the middle of the giant snake's eyes, and then floated into its eyes, turning into a small red mark.

The ice crystal in his hand disappeared, and the same brand as the giant snake appeared in Qu Zhong's palm.

"This is..." Qu Zhong asked in surprise, looking at the brand mark in his hand in doubt.

"Master, this is the seal of the gods." The giant snake's big eyes were full of joy, and the water began to sway, which should be caused by the swaying of its tail in the water.

"God seal?"

"That's right, this is the divine seal bestowed by the sage of heaven."

The giant snake shook its head, and slowly explained the ins and outs to Qu Zhong with his spiritual sense in a child's voice.

It is a spirit beast naturally conceived in the lotus pond of the sage of the heavenly way. It was born with divine consciousness. It lay down in the lotus pond and saw all the emotions and desires of many people in the world.

But just by looking at it, I can't understand it at all. Not only is there no improvement in cultivation, but the doubts in my heart are getting bigger and bigger.

Finally one day, it plucked up the courage to ask the saint why the spirit beasts couldn't improve their cultivation after the monks' souls were gone, and many of them chose to follow their masters.

The sage didn't give it an answer, but just let it go down to find the answer by itself.

So it has been in the lotus pond of this secret realm for thousands of years. During these thousands of years, someone came in occasionally, and the people who came in only wanted to pick those few spiritual plants, and no one had ever talked to it.

Qu Zhong is also the first monk in thousands of years who does not covet spiritual grass, and is also the master that the saint told him he is looking for.

"Uh..." Scratching his palm, Qu Zhong stared intently at the brand mark on his hand, and a few big words came out of his heart.

This is the 'rich second generation' ah.

It is really down to experience life.

Fine!Anyway, he won't be able to stay in this world for many years, and the snake will have its own place at that time, so we should help it.

"Then let me give you a name!" Seeing the huge eyes on Cobra's face, Qu Zhong snapped his fingers, pointed at its eyes and said, "You should be called Big Eyes."

"Okay, master."

The giant snake's spiritual power fluctuated, and it was very happy with its new name.

Looking at the huge snake head, Qu Zhong wondered whether this 'rich second generation' would take the elixir.
