"What's a Vegetation Spirit?" Shen Ying paused. It looked like a radish no matter how she looked at it.
"A Vegetation Spirit is a living thing formed by the accumulation of Spirit Qi," Lonemoon explained. Lonemoon explained, "Spirit herbs and spirit plants have Spirit Qi in them and live longer than demon beasts, but they cannot develop sentience. However, if it was in a place with an especially large number of spirit plants, the dense wood spirit Qi might be able to induce the emergence of Vegetation Spirits among the spirit plants. But the probability is so low that it's negligible. This is my first time seeing a Vegetation Spirit. "
"Oh, what's the use of that?" It's still a radish.
"Of course it's useful!" Lonemoon looked at the Vegetation Spirit in her hand excitedly. "It's formed by the accumulation of Spirit Qi from spirit plants, so it can sense the existence of all spirit plants in the world. In other words, as long as you bring it with you, you'll know the location of all the spirit plants in this mystic realm. "
"I see …" So this was a vegetable version of a GPS.
"It's said that using the Vegetation Spirit's flower to refine pills can increase the grade of the pills," Yi Qing added.
"It can bloom?" Shen Ying's eyes widened. A potted plant?
"But this Vegetation Spirit doesn't seem to be in its flowering stage yet."
"Ji ji ji …" The radish in her hand suddenly wriggled excitedly. Shen Ying had no choice but to let go. The moment the Vegetation Spirit landed on the ground, the entire radish shrunk downwards. Even its body was curled up. The leaves on its head all curled up as if it was using all its strength. Even its cries turned into squeaks. "Ji … Ji …"
Er … Was it constipated?
"Ji!" After holding it in for a long time, it suddenly straightened its body and its leaves spread out. With a puff, a snow-white flower appeared on top of his head.
"Dandelion!" Why did a radish grow a dandelion? Did it mutate?
"It … it's blooming!" Yi Qing exclaimed.
"Ji." The radish curled up its leaves and plucked the dandelion off its head. It handed it to Shen Ying as if to please her. "Ji ji."
"No." Dandelions were very sticky.
"This is … the Thousand Leaves Vegetation Spirit!" Yi Qing was even more shocked. If ordinary Vegetation Spirits could raise the grade of pills, then the Thousand Leaves Vegetation Spirit's flowers were practically synonymous with supreme-grade pills. Any pill refined with its flowers would definitely be supreme-grade pills.
"No wonder the Upper Azure World sent Traveling Immortals to this mystic realm." Lonemoon finally understood what the three of them were looking for in the mystic realm.
"They're looking for this vegetation spirit?" Yi Qing asked.
"It should be." Lonemoon nodded. "I heard that one of the four aristocratic families in the Upper Azure World has cultivators who specialize in refining elixirs. The family's most precious treasure is the Thousand Leaves Vegetation Spirit, and it's the only one in the world. "
"Vegetation Spirits can't possibly grow in a place suitable for human cultivators. They also need dense Wood Spirit Qi," Yi Qing continued. "That's why he thought that there would be some in this mystic realm."
"That's right." Lonemoon looked at the Vegetation Spirit on the ground with a complicated expression. It kept raising its flower high, trying to give it to someone. If the three of them knew that the thing they were looking for had been picked up by Shen Ying the moment they entered the mystic realm, would they explode in anger?
Great, let's see how they're going to act tough now. Lonemoon's entire body felt good. Even a certain foodie seemed more pleasing to the eye.
"Shen Ying, how exactly did you make it recognize you as its owner?" He was curious. Vegetation Spirits were born from gathering Spirit Qi from heaven and earth. They were extremely arrogant creatures and it was extremely difficult to tame them.
"Recognize you as its owner? I didn't! "
"It didn't!" Lonemoon looked at it dumbfounded. "Why did it follow you if it didn't?" And it even took the initiative to bloom flowers to please her.
"How would I know? It wanted to follow me." Shen Ying looked down at the dandelion on the ground. Seeing that she did not want it and was even working hard to bloom a second flower, she took a step back in disgust. "If you like it, I'll give it to you!"
"Me?" Lonemoon was shocked. Even the Upper Azure World was trying so hard to get their hands on something. How could she just give it away so easily? Did she know what a Vegetation Spirit meant? It meant countless spirit herbs and elixirs. Did she still want to increase her cultivation level or not?
Huh? Wait, it seemed like she really did not need it?
Damn!
Instead, the Vegetation Spirit on the ground seemed to understand what the two of them were talking about. Suddenly, it began to wave its leaves anxiously. "Ji ji ji ji …" The radish was unwilling.
Lonemoon's mouth twitched. "Forget it. I'm not a pill cultivator. What's more, it has already recognized you. Even if I wanted to form a contract with it, I would fail."
"Oh …" Shen Ying still looked indifferent. "Why don't we throw it away?"
"Throw it away, my ass." He had said so much for nothing just now, hadn't he?
"Then what do we do?" She did not want to keep carrying a leg pendant. It was very heavy.
"Let's bring it back first!" He turned to look around. "It's getting late. There must be other things in this mystic realm. Let's hurry and go to the east."
Shen Ying had no objections. Yi Qing directly summoned his spirit sword and flew up with Shen Ying habitually.
Lonemoon was about to fly up on his sword when he felt something heavy on his leg. Looking down, he coincidentally bumped into a leg pendant.
"Ji ji?" The radish was stunned. It looked at the two people in front of it who had already flown away, then looked down at the leg it was hugging. It seemed to have just realized that it had hugged the wrong person. Immediately, it swung its leaves and threw the flower that it was holding onto onto the ground. It made a small sound.
Pui!
Lonemoon: "…" Was he being looked down upon by this radish? He was definitely being looked down upon!
You hugged the wrong leg and you're blaming me?
Go down if you have the guts!

With the Vegetation Spirit's guidance, Lonemoon finally experienced what it felt like to be a nouveau riche. Those high-level spirit herbs and plants were like his own backyard dean's. They were all spirit herbs that were more than ten thousand years old and above. What's more, he did not have to do anything himself. The Vegetation Spirit only had to wave its leaves lightly and those spirit herbs would fly into the storage bag on their own.
Just thinking about the reaction of the three people in the Upper Azure World when they failed to find anything, he felt that this trip was really worth it. They spent more than a month until their storage bag was full. Only then did they give up harvesting and focus on flying towards the center of the mystic realm.
The three of them flew for four to five days before they finally exited the forest that stretched as far as the eye could see. Suddenly, a wasteland appeared in front of them. Compared to the forest from before, this place seemed to be the other extreme. There were steep cliffs and strange rocks everywhere. There was not a single bit of green in sight.
It was so quiet that not even the sounds of insects and birds could be heard.
"The Spirit Qi here is a little strange." Yi Qing frowned and suddenly said.
"What do you feel?" Lonemoon could also see that there was something strange about this place and became wary.
"I'm not sure yet." Yi Qing shook his head. The Spirit Qi here was very thick, even thicker than in the forest from before. However, for some reason, he felt that there was something strange about this Spirit Qi. "There must be something hidden here. Be careful."
Lonemoon nodded. He slowed down the speed of his flying sword and flew forward.
They flew for a few more hours. They could no longer see anything apart from the rocks. However, they did not find anything strange.
"Don't you feel …" Shen Ying suddenly said, "a little hot?"
