The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Luo Kun couldn't bear to see Xiao Han continue his useless work, so he tried to dissuade him, "Fellow Daoist, I think there's something wrong with the mineral veins in this area. It probably won't be mined. Why don't we end the deal?"

Xiao Han didn't give up and said, "I'll let them dig over here and try."

She simply withdrew the defensive formation and asked the puppets to dig away the rocks around the cave entrance.

Unfortunately, he still only got a piece of blue crystal dragon blood stone slightly larger than a fist.

Luo Kun: "That's it, stop digging, let's go find treasures quickly, don't waste time here."

Xiao Han thought that these two people probably felt that the gains were too small and wanted to leave, so he didn't want to force them to stay.

So he took out the ore dug by the puppets and divided roughly 20% between the two brothers.

Luo Kun collected the ore and puppet, then took his brother and left quickly.

The two brothers had wasted so much time here, only to get a little bit of blue crystal dragon blood stone. This was certainly not worth it. But compared to Xiao Han, who was implicated by the bad luck of the two brothers, this was nothing.

He was afraid that if he didn't leave, his brother would tell the truth again, and the female cultivator would be furious and fight them both.

After the other two left, Xiao Han dug for another two hours without giving up.

But apart from getting a blue crystal dragon blood stone the size of an egg, all I found were stones.

If he hadn't dug up a few small pieces of ore later, Xiao Han would have suspected that this was not a mineral vein, and that the large pieces of blue crystal dragon blood stone he dug up at the beginning were actually buried here.

No, she has to try digging again. Maybe this is just the tail end of the vein.

So, he kept digging dozens of feet away on the left!

On the right side, dig into the ground like drilling a well!

Dig and dig further up the hill!

Dig down to the very beginning!

In the end, not even a piece of blue crystal dragon blood stone the size of an egg was dug out.

I looked at the time on my wrist and saw that there was less than a day left before the secret realm closed.

Xiao Han finally gave up, put on the bracket with the photo stone installed again, and continued to explore the secret realm of suspension.

When she walked past a big tree covered with vines, the vines suddenly became like hundreds of tentacle monsters, wrapping around her at lightning speed.

The defensive talisman on Xiao Han's body lit up with dazzling light, forming an elliptical light shield for her.

Her spiritual energy circulated throughout her body, and the wind blade technique rotated and cut continuously. After cutting off a large number of vine tentacles, several vine branches quickly retracted.

Xiao Han had no place to vent his frustration at not being able to dig up the blue crystal dragon blood stone, so he immediately sent a ball of spiritual fire directly towards the roots of the tree where the vine was clinging.

She thought it was just a few vines that had become spirits, but she didn't know that the big tree had also become a spirit.

Thousands of branches suddenly swung wildly, whipping Xiao Han.

Xiao Han dodged quickly and flew away from the attack range of the tree.

After thinking about it, she finally decided not to attack the tree anymore.

Once we leave here, we may never have the chance to meet again, so why bother fighting?

Just as she was about to take a detour and leave here, she suddenly stopped.

Wait, she remembered that when she saw the treasures needed to replenish the five spiritual roots in the Tianyuan Sect's library, it seemed that cultivators who lacked wood spiritual roots needed the essence of plants that had become spirits.

She doesn't need to replenish the wood spirit roots, but she can obtain the tree spirit essence and resell it to others.

Xiao Han immediately turned off the photo stone and began to think about how to take down the big tree.

Although the spirit tree cannot move, its rapidly growing branches can whip any enemy that approaches within a hundred feet of it.

If she attacked from outside the attack range of the tree, the distance would be too far, the power of the spell would be weakened, and her attack power would still be easily neutralized by the branches of the tree.

However, she decided to try the Thunder Technique.

First, summon the Qiankun Bagua Mirror and prepare for defense, then fly closer and start to cast the Thunder Technique directly.

A ball of light flashed, accompanied by a loud boom. The tree spirit, which had been so aggressive, was frightened and its branches trembled violently. The power of the spiritual explosion also blew away more than ten of its branches.

Although the Thunder Technique has nothing to do with thunder and lightning, the loud bang is like thunder, which makes the plant spirits who are most afraid of the power of thunder and lightning feel fear instinctively.

Seeing that the spell seemed to be working, Xiao Han immediately began to perform it continuously.

After being blasted two or three times, the tree spirit seemed to have grown accustomed to the thunderous sound, realizing it wasn't the plant spirit's nemesis, the Heavenly Thunder, and immediately began to counterattack. Only this time, the Qiankun Bagua Mirror shone brilliantly, and precious light surged forth.

Not only did it block the force of the branches' attack, but it also reflected half of the force back, causing the branches to pull back towards the trunk.

Xiao Han used large-scale fire magic again.

No matter how powerful a plant monster is, it is afraid of fire.

The tree spirit suffered from the disadvantage of being unable to move. In addition, it had only been a spirit for a short time and had not yet cultivated stronger attack and defense capabilities. As time went on, it became a bit miserable.

The branches were scattered all over the tree, and the trunk and main branches were covered with burn marks.

Just as Xiao Han was about to launch another attack, the top of the tree suddenly lowered and then rose again towards Xiao Han.

All the branches suddenly became extremely soft and drooped in response to her weak dance.

That murderous aura also disappeared without a trace.

Xiao Han: Is this a sign of surrender?

After thinking for a moment, she said to the tree spirit, "Give me half of your essence and I will let you go."

The tree spirit seemed to understand. The whole tree was still for a moment, and then the top of the tree nodded forward, as if in agreement.

Although losing half of its essence and spiritual fluid would destroy half of its cultivation, at least its life was saved.

However, thinking of the troublesome vine, the tree spirit became angry again.

This vine spirit is small in size and cultivates faster. It became a spirit earlier than the other one, so it can't do anything to it.

Now, we can use human hands to uproot it, so that it will not compete with us for the power of the earth.

Then, Xiao Han saw the branches and leaves of the tree spirit suddenly rustled, and then its branches whipped towards the vines hiding behind the tree at the bottom.

The tentacles of the vine monster suddenly grew and wrapped around the branches of the tree monster, making it unable to attack itself.

Xiao Han didn't understand what the tree spirit meant at first. She thought the battle between the tree spirit and the vine was very interesting, and hurriedly activated the photo stone to take pictures of the fight between the two.

The tree spirit and the vine fought for a while, but just like before, they were unable to do anything to each other.

Then, it simply stopped resisting and struggling, allowing the vines to entangle it.

Seeing that neither of them had moved for a while, Xiao Han took out the Cloud Piercing Bow and shot an arrow at the thick root at the bottom of the vine.

What she was thinking was to get rid of the vine first, collect some of its essence and spiritual liquid, and then negotiate with the tree spirit.

Although the quality of the vine spirit liquid is not as good as the tree spirit liquid, it is still a good thing when sold to alchemists.

But in this way, it can be considered a blessing in disguise.

The tree was too thick, so the arrow might not have done much damage to the target. However, the vine itself was only about the thickness of an arm, so the arrow's impact should still be enough to inflict damage.

When Tengman saw the arrow flying towards him, he thought that the other party was attacking the big tree. Until he found that the arrow was aimed at his body, he hurriedly gave up the branch and went back to defend.

Unfortunately, the arrow was too fast and it was too late.

With a puff, the arrow pierced into the main root of the vine, and the arrowhead actually went through a little.

The vine monster was so angry that it forgot how terrifying Xiao Han was. It waved its millions of tentacles and wrapped its entire body around Xiao Han.
