Shocking! The female protagonist unlocked her powers by killing people!

The vines broke and fell, letting in light. Mu Shengyuan strained to look at the source of the light, and a person walked towards him in the light.

"Ling Yi?" Upon recognizing the person, Mu Shengyuan's face showed surprise: "You didn't...leave?"

Ling Yi didn't speak, but stopped in front of Mu Shengyuan and looked down at her: "Not one in ten will survive."

Upon hearing this, Mu Shengyuan looked completely bewildered: "What?"

Ling Yi did not respond. He scooped the person up with one hand and swung his sword with the other. The sword light flew out and cut the vines above their heads. As the vines fell, Ling Yi and the person flew out of the ghost vine's embrace.

As soon as the two landed, the ghost vines surged towards them like a tide.

As Ling Yi swung his sword to cut the vines, he retreated with Mu Shengyuan, saying, "Mu Shengyuan, the Ghost Vine Source is useful to your Extraordinary Wood Spirit Source. Do you want it?"

Mu Shengyuan was very weak at this moment. He was being pulled back by Ling Yi, and he had almost no strength left. But when he heard what Ling Yi said, he forced himself to reply, "I want it."

"Okay," Ling Yi said. "Do you mind bleeding?"

Mu Shengyuan didn't know why Ling Yi said that, but he still nodded: "As long as you think it's useful, it's fine."

Ling Yi didn't ask any more questions. He flipped Mu Shengyuan's hand over, his fingertips carrying spiritual light as they swept across it, creating a wound that bled. Ling Yi held the bone knife horizontally and said, "Make a fist and let the blood drip onto the bone knife."

Clenching your fist can make blood flow faster when you have a wound.

However, Mu Shengyuan was too weak to exert any strength and could not hold on tightly.

Ling glanced at her pale face, grabbed Mu Shengyuan's hand, and held it tightly.

Fresh blood dripped onto the bone knife, where it was all absorbed.

After the bone knife absorbed enough blood, Ling Yi put down the wood source and headed towards the ghost vine.

Standing in front of the ghost vine, Ling Yi lowered her eyes to look at the bone knife in her hand, wanting to show her just how strong this power of only one-tenth of the original strength was.

A cold glint appeared in Ling Yi's eyes. He gripped the bone knife and swung it, sending out a white blade of light. Just as it was about to reach the ghost vine, a hint of green appeared within the white blade of light.

"boom!"

The white-green light collided with the ghost vine, producing a huge explosion. The ghost vine was blasted into countless pieces, leaving only the innermost clump behind.

Upon seeing the black mass, Ling instantly moved closer and slashed down with his sword.

A clanging sound rang out, and upon seeing this, Ling Yi's lips curled into a cold smile. With a forceful pull, he cleaved the black mass in two.

Ling Yi withdrew the bone knife and quickly reached into the crack with his left hand. As Ling Yi's hand entered the crack, countless tiny tendrils wrapped around him, but then quickly dispersed in the next moment.

Ling Yi's hand passed through the vine tendrils, grabbed a bead, and quickly pulled it away.

As Ling Yi took out the bead, the ghost vines that had fallen to the ground began to struggle, resembling a field of snakes, looking disgusting and terrifying.

Ling glanced at it once and then looked away, taking the bead and walking towards Mu Shengyuan.

"Ling Yi, those vines..." Mu Shengyuan looked at Ling Yi approaching and said in shock, "How could this be?"

Seeing her surprised expression, Ling raised an eyebrow, turned around, and discovered that the broken vines on the ground were liquefying. The Ghost Vine liquid seeped into the soil, and the plants withered rapidly as if they had been poisoned.

Ghost vines are things that grow from decay and death, so it's normal for them to affect normally growing plants. However, before Ling Yi could tell Mu Shengyuan, Mu Shengyuan bent over and vomited.

Ling turned around and saw Mu Shengyuan bent over and vomiting, but what she vomited was not food, but vine tendrils mixed with blood and flesh.

Looking at the flesh and blood, Ling Yi thought of the green glint in the light of the blade.

Divine power.

Even if only a trace remains, it can still restrain the Ghost Vine under the influence of the Bone Blade.

Thinking of this, Ling Yi's gaze fell on Mu Shengyuan. Ordinary people would be drained of their skin in the blink of an eye if the Ghost Vine entered their bodies, but Mu Shengyuan had survived until now because he was protected by that power.

Ling Yi put away the bone knife and the Ghost Vine Source Bead, and looked at Mu Shengyuan, saying, "I'm too dirty, I'm going to go wash up."

After exchanging greetings with Mu Shengyuan, Ling Yi instantly teleported to the lakeside. The Ghost Vine was dealt with, but what about the Mountain and River Mirror?

Once you step into the lake, the ghost vines have removed their influence, and the lake water has returned to its clear state. Even though the light at the bottom of the lake is poor, it's not as completely dark as before.

After entering the lake, Ling Yi carefully sensed the different concentrations of spiritual energy. He immediately headed towards the more concentrated area. As he got closer to the area with the most concentrated spiritual energy, Ling Yi reached the bottom of the lake and retrieved the fragment of the Mountain and River Mirror from the soil.

After obtaining the fragments of the Mountain and River Mirror, Ling Yi took out the Destiny and unfolded it.

As the Destiny unfolded, the mirror in his hand transformed into a stream of light and flew into the Destiny. As the light entered, a section of the landscape mirror on the Destiny lit up again.

Ling Yi looked at the half-lit landscape mirror and a smile appeared on his face.

Half of it is lit; only two more are needed.

Having gathered all the mandate of heaven, Ling Yi headed towards the shore.

On the shore, Yan Wuxin arrived with his helpers, only to find that the Ghost Vine was gone and a large area of ​​the lakeside flowers and plants had withered and died for some unknown reason.

While the others were filled with doubt, Yan Wuxin disregarded their questions and quickly began searching. Upon seeing Mu Shengyuan, she immediately rushed over.

"Xiao Yuan." Yan Wuxin rushed to Mu Shengyuan's side and saw what she had vomited. His expression changed drastically: "Xiao Yuan, how are you?"

After asking, Yan Wuxin turned to the others and said, "Who is the alchemist? Come here and let Xiaoyuan take a look!"

“Sister Xin Xin.” Mu Shengyuan tugged at her hand. “I’m fine, don’t worry.”

She was still weak, but after vomiting, she felt no pain.

Thinking back to the vine tendrils he had seen when he coughed up blood, Mu Shengyuan understood that the vine tendrils that came out with the blood before were alive, but those that came out now were dead.

It's okay once you vomit it out.

"How could I not be worried?" Yan Wuxin looked at Mu Shengyuan: "You look terrible..."

Mu Shengyuan smiled and said, "Sister Xinxin, it's really alright now. Gui Teng is dead too."

"Dead?" Yan Wuxin finally had the mind to care about the important matter: "How did he die? Where is his body?"

Thinking of how Ling Yi took his blood when dealing with the Ghost Vine, Mu Shengyuan had a feeling that something was wrong. He glanced at the person who came with Yan Wuxin and didn't go into details, only saying, "Ling Yi killed it. After it died, it turned into liquid. The grass and trees by the lake withered because the liquid entered the soil."

"I see." Yan Wuxin asked, "Where is Ling Yiren?"

Just as Mu Shengyuan was about to answer, a commotion came from the lakeside. Ling Yi emerged from the water and used his spiritual power to dry off his body as he went ashore.

After Ling Yi came up, he noticed someone had arrived, so he didn't go over. He looked at Mu Shengyuan and said, "What you want is here with me. Once it's taken care of, just come and pick it up." After saying that, he turned and left.

After Ling Yi left, the people Yan Wuxin brought started discussing among themselves: "Did Ling Yi really kill Gui Teng?"
