"It's nothing. I just happened to run into a senior who was chasing a monster and was dragged far away. Now that the monster has been killed and the senior has already left, I immediately rushed back. "Liu Ming didn't intend to hide everything and gave a rough account.
"Chasing a monster! No wonder. I was wondering why I saw a strange green thing. However, this senior must not be a normal Spirit Master to have caused such a commotion. Junior Bai, did she tell you her name? "Mu Xian Yun looked back at the collapsed Rock Tuo Mountain and could not help but show a trace of fear on her face.
"Yes, this senior seems to be called 'Ye Tian Mei'. She does not seem to be a member of our sect. Have you heard of this name before?" Liu Ming's heart skipped a beat and he asked directly.
"Ye Tian Mei, I have never heard of this name before. Senior Wu, you have traveled outside of the sect for a period of time. Do you know of any sect that has such a famous senior? "Mu Xian Yun shook her head and asked Senior Wu.
"I have never heard of this name either. However, it is not strange. There are many unknown seniors in the Da Xuan Country. It is normal that we do not know of them. After encountering such a shocking event, we are all safe and sound. It can be considered a fortunate thing. "Senior Wu thought for a moment before replying.
"That's true." Mu Xian Yun sighed.
The others did not ask Liu Ming about what happened. It was clear that they did not think that such a senior would have too much contact with a mere Spirit Apostle.
"By the way, after I left, did Senior Fellow Apprentice Du and Senior Sister Mu get enough blood wire fruit?" Liu Ming thought of something and asked.
"After the Rock Tuo Mountain collapsed, most of the Blood Wire Fruits were buried. Senior Mu and I spent a lot of effort and only managed to gather around eighty Blood Wire Fruits. Junior Brother Bai, you should have already harvested some earlier, right? "Du Hai said slowly.
"I also have around twenty. It should be enough to turn in the mission." Liu Ming smiled as he replied.
"That's great. This way, we did not come here for nothing. Let us return to the Sect and turn in the mission. "Mu Xian Yun smiled sweetly.
When the others heard this, their spirits were also lifted.
Thus, after the five of them discussed for a bit, they immediately urged their gray clouds to fly in the direction of the Barbarian Ghost Sect.
After a few hours, when Liu Ming bid farewell to Mu Xian Yun and the others and left the Duty Hall, he had five Contribution Points and twenty Spirit Stones on him.
Apart from the Spirit Stones, the five contribution points were enough for him to go to the Wisdom Heaven to listen to an Alchemist's lecture or stay in the Soul Pond for two hours.
However, Liu Ming was not in a hurry to do these things. Instead, he hurriedly flew to another place.
After the time it took to finish a cup of tea, he landed in a purplish-red forest, and there was a small white wooden pavilion in front of him. It was built entirely of wood, and there was no stone in sight.
There was a green plaque with the words "Huichun Pavilion" hanging above the door of the pavilion.
The pavilion's door was tightly shut, but near the door, there was a wooden shelf that was as tall as a person. Below the shelf, there was a light silver bell and a small hammer of the same color beside it.
Liu Ming walked over with large strides, and after a slight hesitation, he grabbed the small silver hammer from the wooden shelf and lightly knocked on the bell.
"Dang!" A clear sound rang out.
The originally tightly shut pavilion's door suddenly opened slowly.
Liu Ming took a deep breath and walked in with large strides. However, as soon as he entered the hall on the first floor, he could not help but stare blankly.
In the large hall, other than a red wooden table and a green-clothed young girl sitting on a bamboo chair, there was no one else.
The young girl was currently looking down at a thin scroll in her hands. Without raising her head, she said,
"If you want to cure your illness, go to the second floor. If you want to expel poison, go to the third floor."
"Thank you, Senior, for your guidance." Hearing this, Liu Ming nodded his head and turned to walk towards the empty staircase. However, halfway there, he suddenly thought of something and turned his head to ask a question.
"Excuse me, are you Senior Calan?"
Hearing this question, the green-clothed young girl's body trembled. She raised her head and revealed a delicate and pretty face as she looked at Liu Ming.
Surprisingly, it was Calan, who had the Aphrodite Body.
He did not know why this girl would appear here.
"You are …" There was a trace of confusion on the green-clothed young girl's face. It was obvious that she did not remember a Junior like Liu Ming.
"Junior Bai Cong Tian, originally became a Spirit Apostle disciple with Senior. However, didn't Senior Calan enter the Baleful Yin Faction? Why would you appear in the Huichun Hall? "Liu Ming smiled and asked.
The young girl's Aphrodite Body had previously given him a great fright. Now that he unexpectedly saw her again, he could not help but want to question her.
"So it's Junior Bai. This Huichun Hall is originally managed by a Martial Uncle from our Baleful Yin Mountain. There is nothing strange about me appearing here. Alright, Junior, go and do your own things. I still need to continue reading. " The green-clothed young girl finally remembered Liu Ming, but she only faintly explained a few sentences before waving her hand and continuing to read with her head lowered.
Receiving such a cold treatment, even Liu Ming could not help but grimace. After cupping his hands, he did not say anything more and went up the stairs.
The second floor was an independent room that emitted a faint medicinal fragrance. However, there was a white bead curtain hanging at the door, making it impossible to see if there was anyone inside.
After a moment of hesitation, Liu Ming still lifted his leg and directly went up to the third floor.
His two feet had just stepped onto the third floor, and before he could take a closer look, a cold female voice sounded in his ear.
"What strange poison have you been afflicted with? Why don't you go find your elders to cure it, but come to me!"
Just as the voice fell, Liu Ming only felt a white gust of wind sweep over him. His body spun around and he could not help but be pulled into the distance by a huge force.
When he regained his balance in shock, he was already standing in front of a woman wearing a green cloak.
Although separated by the cloak, Liu Ming could still feel the other's bright eyes shining. She seemed to be quite interested in his arrival.
The hall on the third floor was decorated very elegantly. Not only was there a complete set of beds, there were even a few pots of unknown flowers placed in the corner.
"Reporting to Martial Uncle, this junior is not poisoned. It seems that I have been infected with some evil energy, so I came here to ask for help." Liu Ming said respectfully.
This Returning Spring Hall was a place that he had unintentionally heard of from others. It was said that there were Spirit Masters who were skilled in medicine guarding this place. They specialized in curing all kinds of difficult illnesses and strange curses. They were very effective.
Moreover, he had always felt very uneasy about the cold air that had burrowed into his body. He was afraid that it was some evil energy left behind by the dead Rat Demon. Therefore, as soon as he parted ways with the others, he immediately rushed here.
He did not want to leave behind any unclean things in his body.
"Evil energy! This is a bit interesting. This is not very common. Let me take a look. "Hearing this, the cloaked woman was slightly startled. However, after her eyes flashed, she seemed to become even more interested.
She formed a hand sign with one hand and moved her other arm. She extended a finger and tapped it on Liu Ming's forehead.
Liu Ming was a bit shocked. He only felt that even if he tried to dodge with all his strength, he would most likely not be able to avoid this seemingly slow point.
"Relax your mind and do not resist. Let me check if there really is evil energy in your body." The cloaked woman coldly instructed.
Liu Ming's heart trembled. Naturally, he did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly relaxed his mind.
In the blink of an eye, he felt an unfamiliar energy enter his body from his forehead, and it began to quickly scan every inch of his body, not missing a single inch.
"Strange, there is nothing strange. Could it be that it is an extremely good at concealing evil energy? " The cloaked woman muttered a few times and withdrew her finger. She shook her sleeve and revealed a seemingly exquisite bronze mirror.
"This is the Evil Warding Treasure Mirror. If you are cursed or contaminated with something unclean, you will definitely not be able to escape its inspection. However, the process may be a bit painful. You will have to endure it. "The cloaked woman said in a seemingly casual manner.
"What? Painful?" Liu Ming's thoughts turned. Just as he was thinking about what pain the other party was talking about, he suddenly saw her point the bronze mirror at him. A misty white pillar of light shot out from it and directly entered his body with a flash.
At this moment, he felt his blood boil wherever the white pillar of light shone. A sharp pain, as if thousands of insects were biting him, followed.
Even though Liu Ming was extremely determined, he could not help but let out a cry of pain when he was not on guard.
"Shut up, I will finish inspecting you soon." The cloaked woman did not care about him at all. Instead, she impatiently grabbed at the empty air.
Immediately, an invisible force surged out and instantly bound Liu Ming's body, rendering him unable to move.
The white pillar of light began to scan every inch of his body.
For a moment, Liu Ming's forehead was filled with sweat. He felt as if his body was being cut by a thousand knives. The pain seemed to be even more intense than the Opening Spirit Ceremony.
"You dared to lie to me. There is no evil energy in your body." Suddenly, the cloaked woman put away the bronze mirror and yelled with a trace of anger on her face.
"What? You can't even detect this? Why don't Martial Aunt try another method!" Although Liu Ming had regained his freedom and the pain in his body had disappeared without a trace, he could not help but feel a chill in his heart when he heard these words.
"Hmph, the Evil Warding Treasured Mirror and I have tried many times and have never failed before. Do you dare to doubt my methods? Get lost! "Hearing this, the cloaked woman became even angrier.
"This disciple does not dare to think that way!" Under the spiritual pressure that the other party emitted, Liu Ming's heart trembled. He could only repeatedly say "I do not dare" and retreat.
If he was too late, he was afraid that the other party would really teach him a lesson.
"Wait, leave behind twenty Spirit Stones. Do you think my time is going to be wasted? "The cloaked woman's eyes flashed as she rebuked him.
Hearing this, Liu Ming naturally did not dare to disobey. He quickly took out the twenty Spirit Stones that he had just obtained and placed them on the ground. Then, he hurriedly left the third floor hall.
