Because she was worried about Liu Yuanbai, Bai Fuling slept poorly and had a nightmare.

Bai Fuling dreamed that Liu Yuanbai's spiritual roots were eaten by insects, and she was trapped in the ice, becoming an ice sculpture. No matter how hard she hit, she could not break the ice sculpture and rescue herself.

"Fellow Daoist Liu!" Bai Fuling suddenly woke up from her dream, feeling sore all over, which was the sequelae of the freezing period.

Bai Fuling took out two soothing pills and swallowed them, then stood up to look for Liu Yuanbai and the others.

Bai Ling saw that she had woken up, and for once he was distracted enough to answer her, "He's fine, they went to dismantle the formation."

Dismantle the formation? Is Liu Yuanbai fine? Yes, Bai Ling is still here. After all, Bai Ling and Liu Yuanbai have an equal contract. If Liu Yuanbai gets into trouble, he will be killed or skinned alive. How can he still act like a boss here?

"Why are you running to her now that she's awake? I need you more than she does! Also, you are not allowed to make any more mistakes!" Bai Ling looked at the restless Jin Zhuyu with cold eyes.

Ever since Bai Fuling fainted, the golden bamboo fish has been restless. It can feel that its master has been frozen again. It wants to go over to help, but finds that its master no longer needs it to absorb the cold air.

woo woo woo...

The master has a new pet! And that insect's ability to absorb cold air is much stronger than this one, so the master will not abandon it!

Jin Zhuyu was absent-minded and made frequent mistakes, for which he was scolded several times by Bai Ling. Now that he saw Bai Fuling woke up, he naturally fell in love with Bai Fuling again.

When Bai Fuling heard Bai Ling's scolding, she noticed that the golden bamboo fish was flapping its wings nearby. A hole had been made on the ground by it, and even the dust that was splashed up was wet by the water stains on its body.

But there seemed to be a shallow barrier in front of the golden bamboo fish. No matter how it flapped its wings, it could not pass through the barrier, so it flapped its wings even harder.

"Go away! Go away! Ever since you came here, this fish has been distracted. You fainted yesterday, and it made mistakes even more frequently."

"You know your pet is not only low in cultivation, but also has a poor brain. As its owner, can't you be more self-aware? It's a rare opportunity for it to have such a good cultivation opportunity. Can't you stay away from it?"

As soon as Bai Fuling approached, Bai Ling couldn't wait to chase her away, bombarding her with words of disdain.

Because Bai Ling mentioned that the golden bamboo fish had made a mistake, the golden bamboo fish felt quite embarrassed. Its eyes kept dodging and it didn't dare to look Bai Fuling in the eye. It was obvious that it was also afraid that its owner would dislike it for being stupid.

"Hey! Bai Ling! Not only are you vicious with your words, but I didn't expect you to be so extreme in your actions! You took my beast elixir, borrowed my spirit pet, and still despised me and my spirit pet. Do you have any conscience?"

Seeing the soft little eyes of the golden bamboo fish, Bai Fuling couldn't help it.

Bai Ling said that it was okay, but even her spirit pet said that it was too much.

What's more, this beast pill originally belonged to the golden bamboo fish. Doesn't this mean that Bai Ling used the golden bamboo fish's things, called the golden bamboo fish over to do hard labor, and finally turned around and despised the golden bamboo fish?

Bai Ling was used to being arrogant in the secret realm, and had never been humiliated like this. Just as he was about to lose his temper, he saw Bai Fuling squatting down, gently stroking the golden bamboo fish and saying, "Xiao Jin is the best! Don't mind what Bai Ling said, he is just a poisonous tongue!"

The golden bamboo fish rubbed against Bai Fuling's hand affectionately, greedily enjoying her touch and caress.

Bai Ling's anger was immediately diverted. She pointed at Bai Fuling's hand and said, "I set up a barrier, how did you touch it!"

"Ah?" Bai Fuling then remembered the existence of the barrier.

Yeah! How did she get through the barrier?

Just then, the Snow Rat in the storage bag poked its little head out, and the answer was self-evident.

Bai Ling's face turned pale. He should have set up an extra layer of barrier earlier.

Originally, he just wanted to guard against the golden bamboo fish. After all, this was in its secret realm and in its lair, and other monsters would not dare to mess around. But he forgot that Bai Fuling also had a snow spirit rat.

Others were able to enter the secret realm by relying on the elders of several major sects to tear open the secret realm together, and Bai Fuling seemed to rely on this snow spirit rat.

I was so careless, so careless!

In fact, what Bai Ling didn’t know was that Bai Fuling mainly relied on Qinghe.

When Bai Fuling thought of Qinghe, he thought of the bug and his face immediately turned bad.

But he still couldn't help but ask Qing He in his heart, "Did I really contract that bug?"

Qinghe hummed, which was considered as an answer.

Bai Fuling asked again, "How is Liu Yuanbai?"

Qing He said, "It's a blessing in disguise."

Before Bai Fuling could ask how this blessing in disguise came about, Bai Ling started yelling again.

"Hurry up and leave! They have started working early in the morning, and you are the only one sleeping in. Do you have the nerve to do that?"

Bai Ling had suffered a loss at the hands of Bai Fuling, so he decided not to confront them directly and decided to fight a roundabout strategy.

Bai Fuling's attention was diverted when she heard this. After comforting Jin Zhuyu with a few words, she got up and left.

When Bai Fuling saw Liu Yuanbai, she finally understood what Qinghe meant by "a blessing in disguise".

Liu Yuanbai was seen swinging a vine in each hand flexibly, and the vine in his hand had grown countless branches, digging the soil, moving formation stones, and putting them into the storage bag...

It was just like a factory assembly line, and Bai Fuling was amazed by the sight.

But if you look closely, you can see that the green vines are covered with a layer of white frost.

Is this a spiritual root mutation? Has it become an ice wood spiritual root?

Bai Fuling walked over with a suspicious look on her face, stared at the vine in his hand and said, "Your vine..."

"Friend Bai, are you awake? Are you okay?" Liu Yuanbai asked with concern.

Bai Fuling shook her head and said, "I'm fine." But her eyes were fixed on the vine in Liu Yuanbai's hand.

Liu Yuanbai raised the vine in his hand and smiled brightly, "Fellow Daoist Bai, you see, my wood spirit root is covered with a layer of frost. Not only has my attack power increased, but my defense power has also increased. This can be considered a blessing in disguise."

"It's all because of that bug of yours. You didn't know that the bug you contracted would really eat my spiritual roots! I was so scared at the time, but I didn't expect that after it nibbled on my spiritual roots a few times, it would actually use ice marrow to replenish my spiritual roots."

"So your spiritual roots have mutated now?" Bai Fuling asked.

Although Liu Yuanbai acted very happy and accepted it readily, his expression became visibly worse when he mentioned the insect that bit his spiritual roots.

Obviously, the bug left a big shadow on him.

Come to think of it, the spiritual root was bitten without any warning, but there was nothing one could do about it. No matter who it is, they would be scared when thinking about this.

Liu Yuanbai nodded, "I guess so. I don't know either. I want to ask you something! What kind of bug is that? How can it eat spiritual roots? I have never heard of such a bug. Also, will my spiritual roots always be like this, or will they return to normal after a while?"

Bai Fuling was stunned by all these questions. She immediately called Qinghe.

Qinghe didn't mention the insect, but spoke directly to Bai Fuling about the spiritual roots.

"You can ask him whether he hopes his spiritual roots will remain like this in the future, or whether he wants them to return to their original state after a while. It's no problem." Qing He said with certainty, as if he knew what Liu Yuanbai would choose.

To put it bluntly, it's a unnecessary question.
