The fact that several young people were so infatuated with Ruan Mianmian that they even signed a contract makes it seem like they were being scammed.

But being tricked so willingly doesn't seem like something a mythical beast would do.

The local Suzaku asked Ruan Mianmian's contracted Suzaku, "Did your parents agree to you signing a contract with this human?"

"I agree, they brought us this opportunity! When we saw Mianmian, we jumped over on our own initiative," Zhuque said smugly, as if she had gotten a great deal.

The local mythical creatures fell silent.

Are they too wary, or are the parents of these young people just too careless?

The local mythical beast thought for a moment and then asked Ruan Mianmian about her attitude towards young people.

The young people took turns sharing their daily interactions with Ruan Mianmian.

Actually, they didn't spend much time together because they were inside the spirit ring while Ruan Mianmian was outside. Even when Ruan Mianmian entered the spirit ring, she was mostly doing scientific research and didn't have much time to play with them. But Ruan Mianmian would always make time to play with them. Moreover, Ruan Mianmian let them cultivate in the spirit ring, which was full of spiritual energy. Many people like Ruan Mianmian didn't even have the chance to enter.

After hearing this, some of the local mythical creatures began to believe that Ruan Mianmian wasn't a bad person.

Their gazes toward Ruan Mianmian softened even further.

Ruan Mianmian had no time to pay attention to these local mythical beasts. Her gaze swept across the dense forest at the edge of the square and she spotted a small patch of ginseng with rich spiritual energy!

These ginsengs all had more than seven compound leaves, and those compound leaves were more complex and rare than any she had ever seen before, which meant that they were very old!

Not far from that small patch of ginseng, there is a fragrant agave plant. Judging from its appearance and the aroma of the herbs, it must be at least tens of thousands of years old!

Not far from the agave, there is a Golden Sand plant. Judging from the golden granules on its leaves, it is already considered to be of the highest quality!

In addition, she also saw Thunder Fruit, Ghostly Mushroom, and Youth-Preserving Flower, all of which were of the level of an old medicinal king.

With difficulty, Ruan Mianmian turned her gaze away from the medicinal herbs and looked at the nine-tailed fox: "May we pick any of the plants here?"

There are so many wonderful things just by the roadside; she can't even imagine what might be hidden deep in the forest!

The great nine-tailed fox inquired about the local mythical beasts.

Because of the Four Divine Beasts, the divine beasts had a good impression of Ruan Mianmian. They glanced at the forest and saw that it was full of the Medicine King they had eaten until they were sick of, so they nodded.

The nine-tailed fox replied to Ruan Mianmian, "You can pick them as you please." After a pause, it added, "The adults said that the divine beasts can't grow if they stay by your side all the time, so they want you to allow them to go out and gain more experience."

"Won't they steal my contracted divine beast?" Ruan Mianmian immediately became wary.

The local Azure Dragon said irritably, "Don't worry, I have descendants who won't steal your contracted divine beast."

"It's not that I'm ignorant, that's why I cherish my divine beast so much," Ruan Mianmian replied with a smile, relieved, as she began digging for ginseng.

As she dug, she saw a pile of top-grade spirit stones below, gasped, and asked the local Azure Dragon telepathically, "Can my companion and I dig up the spirit stones in the ground?"

The local Azure Dragon, who was already preparing to tell Ruan Mianmian to leave after contracting the four divine beasts, rolled its eyes: "If you want to dig, then dig. There's no need to ask us about everything."

It's a waste of its life to bother it with such a trivial matter.

Ruan Mianmian was rolled her eyes at, but she wasn't upset at all. Like a mouse that had fallen into a rice jar, she happily started digging.

The nine-tailed fox had to remind her, "Don't forget to absorb spiritual energy."

"I'll absorb it right away." After saying that, Ruan Mianmian immediately started absorbing spiritual energy through her spiritual ring.

She needed to dig for medicinal herbs, but she didn't have time to use her little ring to absorb spiritual energy from each one.

The spirit ring was activated, and the surrounding spiritual energy instantly vanished.

The great nine-tailed fox was quite surprised by the speed: "Can it absorb a lot?"

The spirit beasts behind it, sensing the thinning spiritual energy around them, lay down contentedly.

"Of course, I'm worried about absorbing too much," Ruan Mianmian said while digging for medicinal herbs. "Our place is short of spiritual energy, and we need a lot of it. I'm worried that you don't have enough spiritual energy here."

The nine-tailed fox didn't seem to care: "It won't be enough for you to absorb. You can absorb this small world first, and when you're almost done, I'll take you to other small worlds outside the heavens to absorb from."

"Are there other small worlds with abundant spiritual energy beyond the heavens?" Ruan Mianmian was very curious, and while she was curious, she couldn't help but shed a tear of sympathy for her hometown.

This place is full of planets teeming with spiritual energy, but her hometown is devoid of it.

God is so unfair.

The nine-tailed fox nodded: "Of course. But there used to be more. Three hundred years ago, because we threw too many spirit stone veins with spiritual energy into the area, two planets exploded."

At this point, Ruan Mianmian stopped digging for the Medicine King and grabbed the nine-tailed fox's paw: "Your spiritual energy is so abundant that it could cause a planet to explode? How can you waste it like this? If you don't want it, give it to us! We want it!"

So excited, she forgot to hide her thirst for the spirit stone vein and spiritual energy.

The nine-tailed fox was experiencing such enthusiasm for the first time. Feeling a little uncomfortable, it withdrew its paws and said, "If you want it, I'll take you to collect it after we finish dealing with things on this planet. Although those two planets exploded, the damned spiritual energy and spirit stone veins are still there, just tangled up in a mess."

"I want it, I want it, I want it!" Ruan Mianmian was too excited to pretend anymore.

It's fine for the local spirit beasts to know that she wants spiritual energy and spirit stone veins, because she really wants them, and it seems she can really get a lot!

The great nine-tailed fox licked its paws and said demurely, "You all need to cultivate diligently and absorb spiritual energy with all your might. After we finish this business, you'll reap the rewards."

"Don't worry, we've got your back!" Ruan Mianmian assured, patting her chest.

"Then you all get to work quickly, I'll take them to your shopping mall first." After saying that, the nine-tailed fox beckoned to the spirit beasts around her who were comfortably snoring.

The spirit beasts were initially reluctant to move, but upon hearing that they were going to come into contact with substances that contained no spiritual energy, they immediately became highly motivated and got up to follow the great nine-tailed fox.

Ruan Mianmian looked at Tang You and Professor Zhao and said, "We're rich now!"

"God has been so kind to us, allowing us to travel to such a wonderful place!" Professor Zhao's eyes reddened with excitement.

The spiritual energy on Earth has been depleted, to the point that many people are unable to cultivate.

Although those famous mountains and rivers have begun to recover their spiritual energy, the amount of spiritual energy recovering each day is still too small.

The higher-ups have considered the idea of ​​everyone cultivating immortality, but every time they discuss it, everyone gets a headache trying to figure out how to arrange for people to cultivate immortality.

Who should be assigned to cultivate immortality first?

Why this order of cultivation?

How many slots will be allocated to each household?

If social unrest occurs after the quotas are allocated, how should we respond?

Although cultivators can suppress those who instigate riots, ultimately, the unease of those people stems from their inability to cultivate immortality. Decision-makers prefer to persuade them rather than suppress them.
