I'm accumulating points in the cultivation world.

An even bigger spider emerged from the mist!

"Phantom Spider King! Run!" Qiao Jinghe shouted.

Just as the two were about to run, they were tightly entangled by a spider silk. They didn't know what was wrong with the spider silk, but they couldn't cut it!

Tang Doudou then remembered her spatial spiritual root. She quickly activated it and appeared behind Qiao Jinghe in the next second, but the spider silk was still tightly wrapped around her.

Soon, countless spider webs covered the two of them, binding them so tightly that they could not move.

"It's over, I'm going to die here today!" Qiao Jinghe shouted in despair.

"Little Green, wake up!" Tang Doudou called out to Little Green, but there was no response.

To watch the Phantom Spider King approach step by step, Tang Doudou couldn't think of a better way, so she could only frantically shout "System!" in her mind.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew by, and the two rolled to the sides like small balls. Then a woman landed in front of the Phantom Spider King.

The woman engaged the Phantom Spider King in battle. Her movements were lithe and her swordsmanship fierce; each thrust felt like a thousand knives striking the Phantom Spider King. Despite its enormous size, the Phantom Spider King was initially unable to defend itself effectively.

Qiao Jinghe exclaimed in surprise, "Who is this? He's so powerful!" Tang Doudou felt that the figure looked somewhat familiar, but she couldn't quite place it.

The Phantom Spider King roared angrily, spitting out a glob of black venom. The woman, however, remained calm, nimbly dodging the attack with a swift turn. Simultaneously, her sword glowed blue as she swung it backhand, unleashing a barrage of sword energy towards the Phantom Spider King. This energy severed several of its long legs, and the Phantom Spider King, in pain, turned to flee.

The woman was not about to give up and gave chase. A moment later, a shrill scream was heard, and the Phantom Spider King's massive body flew out of the mist, crashing heavily to the ground, lifeless.

The woman walked slowly over, and Tang Doudou then recognized her as her senior sister, Fang Buyuan!

Fang Buyuan used a knife to cut the spider silk off the two people's bodies.

"Your knife is amazing!" Qiao Jinghe exclaimed.

"I've applied medicine to this knife, so it can cut through spider silk," Fang Buyuan replied.

"Senior Sister Fang..." Tang Doudou called out excitedly.

"I'm sorry, not just anyone can call me Senior Sister Fang."

"I..." Tang Doudou's mind raced, "Woman, you're playing with fire!"

Fang Buyuan looked at Tang Doudou in surprise, "It's you?"

"What? Senior Sister Fang, are you still willing to acknowledge me?" Tang Doudou asked with a smile.

"I admit it! I admit it!" Fang Buyuan said, excitedly picking up Tang Doudou. "You don't know, when I heard the news about you, I..."

"I'm all better now!" Tang Doudou patted Fang Buyuan on the shoulder.

"That's good!" Fang Buyuan finally let go of Tang Doudou. "What are you doing here?"

"We've come to find the Wind and Cloud Spirit Herb," ​​Tang Doudou said quickly.

"I'll go pick some for you!" Fang Buyuan said, turning around to find the spiritual herbs.

"You're such a bad friend!" Qiao Jinghe patted Tang Doudou on the shoulder.

"what happened?"

"This beauty saved your life, and instead of being grateful, you made her do your work. If it were me, I would gladly offer myself to her. Such a beautiful woman, and so powerful!" Qiao Jinghe sighed as he looked at Fang Buyuan's figure.

"She's my senior sister, don't you dare make a move on her!" Tang Doudou warned.

"Didn't you notice she has feelings for you? How could I steal her away?" Qiao Jinghe sighed. "In the end, I'm just not destined to be with a beautiful woman."

Fang Buyuan returned with the Wind and Cloud Spirit Grass, then handed it to Tang Doudou, saying, "Junior brother, here you go."

"Thank you, senior sister. Do you have any news about senior brothers and junior sisters?" Tang Doudou asked.

“I’ve only ever met Master. Junior Brother, Master…” Fang Buyuan couldn’t finish his sentence.

Tang Doudou did not speak.

"Master once said that no matter how poor or miserable a man is, he must stand tall. Do you know why he went to the Beast Taming Sect? Because the Beast Taming Sect has a magical mirror. You can find anyone you want to find in the mirror!"

Tang Doudou was stunned and remained silent for a long time.

After a long while, he murmured to himself, "I have seen my master before, and my master recognized me."

"That's good!"

The two leaned against each other, neither of them speaking.

"Junior brother, let me know whenever you need your senior sister. No matter where I am, I will definitely come over!" Fang Buyuan said.

Tang Doudou nodded, "Thank you, senior sister."

"No need to thank me. It's what I should do."

Qiao Jinghe, watching the two of them leaning on each other, sat quietly to the side.

"I'll see you out!" Fang Buyuan said.

"Okay!" Tang Doudou nodded.

Tang Doudou and Qiao Jinghe left. Tang Doudou watched their figures grow smaller and smaller, tears blurring her vision.

thank you all!

Back in the mercenary group, Tang Doudou takes on a challenge beyond her level and begins a new round of desperate fighting.

Half a year has passed, and Tang Doudou's combat skills have improved a lot, but her cultivation level has been stuck at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, and she is unable to break through.

Tang Doudou calmed down and examined the situation carefully. She then discovered that of her two spiritual roots, the fire elemental root was extremely powerful, while the space elemental root remained unchanged.

It seems the breakthrough lies in the spatial spiritual root. However, she simply doesn't possess any cultivation techniques for it.

Senior Sister Fang also didn't have a way to cultivate a wind-type spiritual root, but in the place where she was, the wind was so strong, yet she was able to pass through it with ease.

It seems that if she wants to improve her spatial spiritual root, she must find a suitable place.

Once Tang Doudou made up her mind, she began searching for such a place. Fortunately, the mercenary group had been to many places, so when Tang Doudou asked, one of them mentioned a place where space and time were somewhat disordered, and ordinary people dared not enter it easily.

"Turbulent Island!"

Tang Doudou noted down the location and, after making some preparations, headed towards Turbulent Island.

Turbulent Island is located in the eastern sea, and it is said that many people have disappeared in that area.

Tang Doudou flew to a nearby island on her sword, intending to learn more about the situation there before setting off again.

The island is quite lively; you can see the entire island from the harbor. The island is full of white houses, looking clean and beautiful.

Tang Doudou sheathed her sword and walked towards the town's streets.

There are many seafood vendors here, and quite a few things that Tang Doudou has never seen before.

Tang Doudou stopped at a stall with a crystal-clear fish scale on it.

"Young man, you have a good eye! These are dragon scales!" the stall owner said with a smile.

"Dragon scales? How could there possibly be dragons in this world?" Tang Doudou laughed.

"Young man, don't disbelieve me, dragons really exist. I've seen them before."

Tang Doudou picked up the fish scale. The scale was quite sturdy, but she didn't believe it was a dragon scale.

Seeing his disbelief, the stall owner said, "I really have seen a dragon. It was when I was young. I went out fishing, hoping to catch as many fish as possible, but I never imagined I would wander further and further away. Later, when I wanted to return, I got lost. Just as I was getting anxious, I saw a dragon rolling in the sky. It was a blue dragon, and I could only vaguely see part of its body. It was in the clouds, and lightning flashed across the clouds from time to time. Then it started to rain heavily, and my boat was capsized by the waves. I fell into the sea, and when I woke up, I found myself washed ashore on a nearby island."

Tang Doudou was listening intently when she saw the stall owner stop, seemingly still recalling the scene.

"How much are these fish scales?" Tang Doudou asked.

"Dragon scales! Everyone says they are dragon scales. I vaguely remember someone saving me, and when I woke up, the dragon scales were in my hands."

"How much are these dragon scales worth?" Tang Doudou changed her question.

"You really think it's a dragon scale?" the stall owner asked in surprise.

"It wasn't you..." Tang Doudou started to say, but seeing the stall owner's disappointed expression, she changed her words and said, "Wasn't it something you experienced yourself? It must be dragon scales!"

"How about I charge you one tael of silver for these dragon scales?"

Tang Doudou took out one tael of silver and then put away the dragon scale.

One tael of silver is enough for an ordinary person to live on for a while.

Strangely, most of the people here don't have spiritual roots; they are just ordinary people.
