"Rest here for a while. I'll go find you something to eat. You haven't eaten for so long, you must be hungry."
Elder Lingxin, who was holding onto a thick tree trunk, frowned slightly. "I just found out that the storage ring can't be used anymore. I think after the disaster of the Blood Sea, the spatial spiritual power in the storage ring was destroyed by the mysterious power contained in the killing array. If we don't find something to eat, I'm afraid our bodies won't be able to take it."
Chu Chen nodded. "Then be careful. This island is very likely strange. I'm not too hungry."
Although Chu Chen and Lingxin were both cultivators, they had not reached the legendary state of complete inedia. They still needed to eat after a period of time.
Previously, when they encountered the Blood Sea, both of them had exhausted a lot of physical strength and energy.
Later, they had drifted in a coma for many days. Their bodies had long reached their limits. If they did not eat to replenish their energy, it would cause damage to the foundation of their cultivation.
Seeing that Elder Lingxin had once again set out to find something to eat, Chu Chen silently sat cross-legged on a tree and began to cultivate the third sun of the Nine Suns Heaven Burning Seal.
He did not expect Elder Lingxin to be out for such a long time. She only returned quietly in the middle of the night when the stars were dense.
Fortunately, Chu Chen was cultivating and time flew by.
Chu Chen saw that she was holding a few pale yellow fruits in her hand. They looked a little like apples, but their surface was covered with a fine layer of phosphorescent gum.
"It's very strange. This island is a little too desolate."
Elder Lingxin placed the fruits beside Chu Chen. There was still a trace of doubt in her eyes. "Most of the plants on this island have a special kind of poison that is completely inedible. There are no beasts or birds on the entire island. There are no schools of fish in the surrounding sea. This place … seems to be a dead zone. "
"A dead zone? Perhaps it's because this place is too far from land that there are special laws of heaven and earth that are different from other places. "
Chu Chen took a fruit from Lingxin and took a few bites. He found that the taste was not very good. It was a little sour. He looked at Elder Lingxin's uneasy expression on her cold face.
Chu Chen braced himself and swallowed the fruit whole. "The taste … is not bad. Actually, with our cultivation, we only need to eat a little. We will definitely find a way to survive."
"There are only a few of these sour fruits on the island." Elder Lingxin sighed faintly.
"It's alright. Oh right, I haven't asked Elder, why exactly are you going to the Western Wilderness Region this time?"
Chu Chen decided to change the topic so that she would not dwell on the food issue.
"For cultivation."
Lingxin's face turned cold, as if she didn't want to talk about this topic.
"Hmm? For cultivation? "
Chu Chen was shocked when he heard this. He did not expect that Elder Lingxin's main purpose for going to the Western Wilderness Region was to cultivate.
One had to know that when he was learning alchemy under Lingxin Sect, this Elder had no interest in cultivation at all. She only focused on alchemy her entire life and never cared about cultivation.
Chu Chen even heard several times that the other Elders in the sect felt sorry for Elder Lingxin. It was said that Elder Lingxin had a one-in-a-million cultivation physique … the Green Lotus Taoist Physique. This was one of the strongest physiques in cultivation during the Mythological Era. If one cultivated it to the extreme, even becoming a god or a saint would not be a problem.
However, she was too immersed in alchemy. Apart from alchemy, she spent most of her time learning all kinds of alchemy knowledge. It was a waste of such an excellent natural Taoist Physique.
However, she was extremely talented in alchemy and no one in the Biquan Xianzong dared to force her.
"Oh? I thought Elder Lingxin was going to the Western Wilderness Region to pick herbs. I didn't expect it to be for cultivation? "
Chu Chen muttered, "The Desolate Qi in the Western Wilderness is very heavy. It is said that some places still retain some ancient rules. Once you enter the cultivation mode, the burden will certainly not be light. Since Elder has made up your mind to cultivate there, could it be that you want to temporarily abandon the Dao of Medicine?"
"No. Actually, I have no interest in cultivation."
Elder Lingxin shook her head. There was a trace of helplessness in her frosty eyes. "Ancestor Bixian has never forced me to cultivate. However, one day, he specifically grabbed me and had a long talk. He said that there will be great changes in this world soon. In the future, the world may be turned upside down, Yin and Yang will be in chaos, and the flames of war will spread. Therefore, he wants me to improve my cultivation so that the Biquan Xianzong will have a chance to survive in the unknown changes in the future. "
Lingxin's beautiful eyes twinkled.
"Ancestor Bixian also advised me that on the path of cultivation, one's own cultivation is the foundation. If one's own cultivation is not high, then no matter how good one's alchemy skills are, it will not be enough. Therefore, if one wants to have a place in the future, one must improve one's own cultivation. Moreover, this trip to the Western Wilderness Region was personally arranged by Ancestor Bixian. When I arrive at Desolation City, someone will naturally come to pick me up. "
"Oh?"
After hearing Elder Lingxin's words, Chu Chen's heart was moved. This was not the first time he had heard this.
Previously, when he was cultivating, Chu Chen had heard the little hamster mutter to itself that this world was going to enter an unprecedented chaos. Whether the future would be a blessing or a disaster, no one could say for sure.
Sometimes, when he was cultivating the Nine Suns Burning Sky Seal, he would faintly feel an inexplicable sense of anxiety in his heart, as if something big would happen in the near future.
After all, as a cultivator's cultivation increased, his spiritual sense's compatibility with the laws of heaven and earth would also constantly improve. Naturally, he could sense some great changes in the laws of heaven and earth.
This was the will of heaven, karma, and fate. It was something that could not be clearly explained, but it was real.
Now, it seemed that many experts who had reached the peak of their cultivation should have deduced the clues of the future and started to make arrangements to deal with the future chaos.
As a Green Lotus Taoist Body, Elder Lingxin would naturally be a main force in the future chaos.
"By the way, didn't you say that you went to the Western Wilderness Region this time to find your sister? Which sect is she in? How is her cultivation now? "
Elder Lingxin asked Chu Chen curiously.
"Oh, my sister. Her name is Tong Bao. She has been very talented in cultivation since she was young …"
The corner of Chu Chen's mouth twitched a few times, and he casually responded with a few words.
The two of them stayed on the giant tree at the edge of the beach for a few days. Soon, they finished all the wild fruits and vegetables they found around them. There was no more food to be found.
Although some fruits on the trees looked very tempting, they contained a strong poison. This poison was very strange. Even with Elder Lingxin's current alchemy skills, she could not find a way to neutralize this poison. Therefore, she did not dare to eat it rashly.
