Was the seed of the thousand-vine sunflower poisonous?
No, it was not.
Not only was it not poisonous, but it also contained extremely pure explosive energy.
The effect was even denser than Level 3 vicious beast meat. Tang Ling swallowed it without any preparation, so he suffered some physical pain, but it did not matter.
As he cursed Tang Feng for being cunning, he endured the pain and gobbled down the whole pot of melon seed soup like he was swallowing a jujube.
Then, he practiced the eating method that Su Siao taught him in an orderly manner.
In the end, he went back to cultivation.
It was at that moment that the last ray of light from the setting sun faded away and the coldness of the night slowly descended.
The river flowed along with the chirping of countless insects, welcoming the arrival of the Purple Moon.
When the first ray of moonlight shone on Tang Ling, he finally opened his eyes.
The seeds of the thousand-vine sunflower were too powerful.
It was just a pot of melon seed soup, yet Tang Ling felt an obvious growth in his strength.
As a matter of fact, after Tang Ling froze Su Siao and left the mushroom house, he had been estimating his strength.
In terms of strength, he had reached the strength of five and a half bulls.
The other abilities that complemented his strength were also growing at a normal rate.
However, at his current level, even if he ate vicious beast meat every day and cultivated to the limit, which was four hours of cultivation a day, the growth would still be limited.
Never would he have thought that a pot of melon seed soup would increase his strength to six bulls in an instant! Based on normal growth, it would take at least 15 days and he would have to eat Level 3 vicious beast meat twice in between.
With that in mind, Tang Ling eagerly grabbed his backpack and took out the black map booklet.
He flipped the map to the next page.
The next part of his journey was to cross the Metos Valley in the Herrocky Mountain Range. As long as he crossed the end of the Metos Valley and reached the end of the valley, the valley would gradually widen and connect to the Raqir Little Plains.
The Raqir Little Plains was rich in resources. It was a natural grassland and was inhabited by the nomads of the primitive Drifters.
Due to the existence of the nomads, a safety village was formed in the area — Safety Village No. 209, also known as Barbarto Safety Village.
This map was also very detailed, showing the various dangers, the nests of high-level mutated beasts and ferocious beasts, and their movement patterns.
In short, these were not the main points. The main point was the words beside the map.
As the map flipped page by page, Tang Feng undoubtedly became more and more long-winded, and the messages he left behind increased.
Sure enough, he wrote the first line.
"Idiots are usually gluttonous. A certain idiot along the way must have been unable to resist the temptation and went to eat some melon seeds. Excuse me, do you have a tummy ache? Haha, that's because you don't know enough! You need to learn more about vicious plants. "
"That's because even some Level 1 Vicious Plants will produce precious fruits. They are good at condensing essence, unlike the vicious beasts, whose energy is distributed in their muscles and can only condense into a crystal at most. "
"Of course crystals are precious. They are the basic material for all forging. However, in terms of energy replenishment, the best production would always be vicious plants! Vicious Plants! Vicious plants! "
Pak! Tang Ling closed the black booklet and felt the veins on his forehead bulging.
Tang Feng must be proud of himself for leading me by the nose. If he did not emphasize the taste of the melon seeds in the last chapter, would he have gone to catch the thousand-vine sunflower?
Even so, he could have said that the seeds were full of energy and that he had to be prepared before eating them, but he did not mention anything.
He wrote the result beside the map of the journey that he was going to take the next day. It was obvious that he was mocking Tang Ling.
What kind of sick joke is this?
Tang Ling tossed the black booklet into his backpack. He decided that even though his heart was filled with resistance, he would at least read two more pages of the map before he left to prevent this kind of thing from happening again.
However, vicious plants! The concept was deeply implanted in Tang Ling's heart through the seeds of the thousand-vine sunflower.
It was a great thing. He should have thought of it earlier. A plant that could capture high-level mutated beasts or even Level 1 vicious beasts, other than its vines, other than its seeds, nothing else was edible.
So, where did the energy gather? It was obviously the melon seeds! A thousand-vine sunflower only had a dozen melon seeds. What did it mean? It meant that it was the essence of the plant.
Plants could photosynthesize, and Tang Ling did not know if there were some changes in the Purple Moon era that allowed them to absorb the light of the Purple Moon at night. Absorbing energy was the instinct of every living being.
Ever since the Purple Moon appeared, it had defied the natural order and appeared every day without any warning.
Of course, this imagination was wild and imaginative.
According to the research of the old civilization, plants only breathed at night.
Regardless, he had to figure out a way to learn more about vicious plants and try his best to collect the essence of the vicious plants.
He wanted to accumulate the strength of nine bulls as soon as possible and break through to become a Purple Moon Warrior.
As a matter of fact, breaking through was not as natural as what Safety Sector No. 17 recorded. According to the notes that Su Siao left behind, he still needed something else.
However, it was something that could only be found and not sought, but Tang Ling hoped to achieve perfection.
With all the messy thoughts in his mind, Tang Ling felt a little tired. He would not waste food, so after he finished the meat that he had prepared, he split the fire into four parts and circled them around himself.
After that, he made some necessary arrangements and gradually immersed himself in a state of cultivation.
It was the most comfortable time of the day. When he cultivated at night, the Purple Moon Essence would flow into his body as energy and it would bring a cooling sensation to his body, making him feel unusually relaxed.
When he reached the end of his cultivation, he would unknowingly fall asleep. Four hours later, he would wake up and start a new day.
Therefore, he had to move forward with hope because he had the promise to meet 10 years later and Uncle Su Siao was waiting for him. The silver-haired black-robed man would definitely find him.
Tang Ling encouraged himself, completely forgetting that he was shuttling through the deep forest alone. He felt a little lonely, a little lonely, and a little anxious.
The surroundings of the river bank became lively. Apart from the desperate cries of the insects, all kinds of wild beasts began to roar. As the river flowed by, a strange fish would jump out from time to time, and one or two heads of unknown underwater creatures would pop up from time to time.
However, it was a night that belonged to Tang Ling alone.

Valencia rode her beloved Red-maned Scale Horse. With a deep and dejected expression, she arrived at the edge of the Raqir Little Plains all alone.
The place was close to Misto Valley, and it was Valencia's favorite place when she was sad.
"Warrior." Valencia caressed the Red-maned Scale Horse's mane with reddened eyes as she called out to it softly.
The Red-maned Scale Horse was indeed a warrior. When it galloped, it was like a ball of black lightning with red flames burning on it. It was a beautiful sight that people yearned for.
It was fearless as at least seven to eight Grassland Greedy Wolves had died under its hooves.
It was a gift from Valencia's father when she was 15 years old and could officially enter the Hunter School.
Legend had it that only one out of ten thousand Iron Scale Horses would have a red mane, hence the name Red-maned Scale Horse.
The gift was undoubtedly a precious one.
Valencia loved the Red-maned Scale Horse like it was her own family and her little brother. She had spent two happy years with it.
As the Red-maned Scale Horse grew from a puppy to a handsome adult horse, the relationship between the horse and the human grew.
The edge of Misto Valley was exceptionally beautiful. Due to its proximity to the Goddess Tear Lake, the entrance of the valley was shrouded in mist all the time.
The mountains on both sides of the valley were majestic. During autumn, it was as if a great painter had splashed ink on the mountains, turning them into a rainbow of red and yellow.
It was an enchanting sight.
Despite the beautiful scenery, the people of Barbarto Village rarely came because of the countless dangers lurking in the valley.
Although some people said that after crossing the valley, one would arrive at an astonishing safety zone after walking for half a month, no one in the village would try to cross the valley. Even the bravest and most fearless man would not dare to do so.
Therefore, the villagers only dared to admire the beautiful scenery from afar. Only Valencia, who was regarded as a crazy girl by the villagers, dared to come here.
She was proud of it. She was so proud that she would feel moved by the scenery because it was a place that belonged to her alone.
However, the exceptionally beautiful and mysterious scenery could not comfort Valencia's heart. Her heart was broken as she listened to the warrior snort as if it was responding to her call.
The more Brave snorted, the sadder Valencia felt. She could not help but lean down and hug Brave's neck. "Brave, if I give you to someone else, will you miss me?"
"Ah …" A young voice came from afar. At the same time, Brave ran two steps forward and nibbled on a sweet grass.
The coincidence almost made Valencia fall off the horse. She thought Brave could speak and respond to her, but the voice came from somewhere else.
However, the voice came from somewhere else. She looked up in shock and saw a person dashing out from the Mitos Valley.
The person was the one who screamed because a flock of purple Udy crows was chasing after him. The crows covered the sky like a purple cloud, and they cawed angrily as they chased after the person in front of them.
Valencia's jaw dropped. What is this? Am I dreaming? Who dares to provoke a flock of purple Udy crows? What did he do to make the purple Udy crows chase after him?
One thing worth noting was that although the purple Udy crows were not powerful, they were birds that could annoy people to death.
In Barbarto Village, 'woody' meant 'naggy'. There was no doubt about it. Their cries were very strange. 'Croak', 'Ba Ji', 'Pitter patter', and 'Lu Lu Lu' were all sounds that they could make.
This was because they had a strange habit. They liked to imitate the inelegant sounds of humans, such as the sound of smacking their lips when eating, the pitter-patter sound when having diarrhea, the snoring sound when sleeping, and even the sound of farting. They liked it too.
If they were angered, they would perch in front of the window, the house, or anywhere else where they could hear them. They would caw non-stop for a day and a night.
Just think about it. How would it feel to listen to diarrhea, farting, and smacking of their lips?
On top of that, the purple Udy crows perfectly inherited the habits of the crows from the old civilization. They loved to steal, and they would disgust you while stealing anything that caught their eyes.
Unlike the crows from the old civilization that only stole shiny things, the purple Udy crows were only annoying.
However, the purple Udy crows were only annoying and did not have much attack power, but if there was a group of them …
Valencia could not figure out how the person running in front could do such a magical thing.
However, the purple Udy crows farted so loudly that it covered the sky. The person had reached the edge of the Goddess Tear Lake and was about to jump in.
"Don't jump in. There are Aalto Red Turtles in the lake. They're scary." Valencia was a kind person. She would never watch a person throw his life away, even if the person angered a flock of purple Udy crows.
It seemed like the person heard Valencia's warning. He stopped abruptly and did not jump into the Goddess Tear Lake. Instead, he glanced at Valencia and dashed madly towards her. His speed was so fast that it was hard to believe that a human could run at such a speed.
What is he doing? Is he trying to lure the purple Udy crows to me? Valencia grabbed the reins tightly and wanted to ride Warrior away.
With Warrior's speed, it should not be a problem to shake off the flock of purple Udy crows.
However, if it was not a problem to shake off the purple Udy crows, then … Valencia hesitated for a while before she decided to stay.
Although she could ignore a single purple Udy crow's attack, a flock of them would definitely kill the person.
I'll wait for him for 20 seconds. 20 seconds at most. Otherwise, the purple Udy crows will surround me, 'Valencia thought.
She did not ask for 20 seconds for no reason, but the person was too fast. Maybe he used some kind of explosive herb?
In short, he should be able to reach her in 20 seconds, but the result shocked Valencia. In less than 10 seconds, the person dashed towards her like a gust of wind.
It was then that Valencia finally saw the person's face. He was not short, but he looked a little scrawny.
He had brown hair and brows, delicate facial features, and tanned skin. His chubby cheeks ruined his delicate look, but he still looked a little cute.
Especially his pair of black eyes. They were bright and deep, giving people a good impression at first sight.
However, one should not judge a book by its cover. Why is he carrying a big backpack and holding a nest when he's running for his life? That nest is obviously …
Is he a little greedy little thing? Valencia regretted being soft-hearted to such a person, but the young man did not feel anything.
However, the young man did not feel anything. He jumped onto the warrior's back and said, "Hey, Miss Black, why aren't you running?"
Those purple crows that fart are coming. You have no idea how annoying they are. "
Valencia was about to explode on the spot. Black Lady? Are you as black as coal? You're as black as charcoal!
However, she could not do anything about it. The flock of purple Udy crows had caught up to her, so Valencia squeezed her horse's belly and urged Warrior to leave the place as soon as possible.
"Black Lady, you're so kind. I'll repay you. I swear it. "
"Shut up."
That was the first time Valencia and Tang Ling met.
