I have a high-risk profession in the cultivation world.

Following yesterday's markings, the five arrived at a rocky forest. The thick snow could not conceal the jagged rocks, which bravely peeked out, becoming one of the few other colors in this landscape.

“This is it, Master. My junior brother and I saw the companion spirit beast of the Illusionary Spirit Grass here yesterday,” Su Chengdian said.

Chu Chenmu nodded, "Okay, let's go in."

Not long after entering the chaotic rock forest, the group discovered traces of the Phantom Beast's activity. Following these traces, they easily found its base camp.

"There really is a Phantom Spirit Grass!" Su Chengdian exclaimed softly.

"Yes, and there are quite a lot. Let's pick them as soon as possible, try to pick the ripe ones, only pick half, and don't touch the rest." Chu Chenmu also lowered his voice.

Chu Chenmu has never done a task of picking spiritual herbs since he came into this world. He doesn't know if others would also leave some spiritual herbs behind, but he dug out his memories from the original owner's past. When the original owner did tasks in the past, if possible, he would leave some living seeds behind. Perhaps he was worried about depleting the resources, or perhaps he couldn't bear to waste so much time protecting the spiritual beasts.

Chu Chenmu remained on guard, wary of the phantom beasts that might suddenly appear.

Before they even touched the Illusionary Spirit Grass, they had already alerted the Illusionary Spirit Beast that had been guarding the area.

All three are at the fourth rank, equivalent to the late Foundation Establishment stage. (First and second ranks are equivalent to the Qi Refining stage, third and fourth ranks are equivalent to the Foundation Establishment stage, and so on.)

Tian Yige single-handedly blocked one of them, while Chu Chenmu controlled the remaining two. He was still able to keep an eye on the battlefield on Tian Yige's side. When he saw that his disciple was at a disadvantage and about to be seriously injured, he stepped in to help, which was equivalent to giving Tian Yige another sparring partner.

It was just a pity for the little Phantom Beast that desperately tried to protect its Phantom Grass.

It frequently emits angry growls.

If you're going to kill or torture someone, do it quickly! What kind of hero calls for their parents when they can't win? You can't kill them, and you can't even let them run away. How can you do things like this?!

Su Chengdian, Luo Suichen, and Huaisu all took this opportunity to pick Illusionary Spirit Grass and placed it in a jade box. The jade box could lock in the spiritual energy of the spiritual grass and plant to prevent it from leaking out, thus preserving its most complete efficacy.

The three worked quickly and picked about half of them, roughly thirty or forty plants.

This patch of Illusionary Spirit Grass was quite large. Chu Chenmu had been thinking about whether there was any Blood Spirit Grass growing alongside it, so he simply flew in the air, holding back the two Illusionary Spirit Beasts while setting up a restriction to ensure that the two Illusionary Spirit Beasts could not break out for a while, and quickly left to find the Blood Spirit Grass.

found it!

A splash of crimson suddenly appeared amidst a large patch of pale yellow Illusion Grass. The pale yellow edges, crimson petals and stems often grew alongside the Illusion Grass.

You are the one!

Chu Chenmu swiftly sliced ​​it off with his jade knife and placed it separately in a jade box. He didn't dig it up, after all, this was only for Luo Suichen to use for body tempering, and it wasn't worth ruining this Blood Spirit Grass.

Leave a root, and it might grow again in a few years.

"Retreat!" After succeeding, Chu Chenmu told the group to leave to avoid provoking the three phantom beasts to their bloodthirstiness if they stayed too long.

The five of them stopped when they were far enough away.

After making some adjustments, we moved on to the next marked location.

After wandering around for two or three days, they collected more than twenty Illusionary Spirit Grasses, but did not encounter Blood Spirit Grass again.

Indeed, such things are rare and hard to come by.

Chu Chenmu felt that he was really lucky to have met her on the first try, so he didn't have to keep thinking about it.

The group headed south, and on their return journey, the three young apprentices very consciously withdrew their protective spiritual energy and began to train their bodies.

"Huaisu, we've already left the far north. We plan to head towards Lizhou. What about you?"

“Amitabha, this humble monk has other matters to attend to. I thank Venerable Chu, Benefactor Tian, ​​Benefactor Su, and Benefactor Luo for their care over the past few days. I will now take my leave.”

Chu Chenmu nodded. "Take care, and see you again someday."
