Oh no, I accidentally cultivated three spiritual roots and became an empress!

Zhong Lingxin left another 10,000 low-grade spirit stones to congratulate the family on their relocation.

This is also the start-up capital left for the family.

As for what she left for her parents, there was no need for the clan to see it.

Seeing that everything was arranged, Xuan Yuan hurriedly pulled Zhong Lingxin away.

He's been so bored these past few months.

The Zhong family treated him with excessive politeness and respect.

Being polite and respectful means that he has to maintain a proper demeanor at all times.

He usually thought Qingyang Zunsheng acted like a superior person and it didn't bother him, but little did he know that he himself couldn't put on that air.

I'm so tired, so incredibly tired!

It's more tiring than fighting.

Zhong Lingxin also knew that Uncle Xuanyuan had been holding back for a while.

Not only was Uncle Xuanyuan frustrated, but she was also extremely frustrated.

Although she enjoyed being surrounded by family affection upon her return, she also clearly felt that she could not go back. She longed for a wider world outside, and her heart still wanted to soar.

Seeing Zhong Lingxin's reaction, Xuan Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Little one, it's good that you've figured it out. Enjoy family affection without being bound by it, cultivate when you should cultivate, and ascend when you should ascend. This is the path you should take."

Zhong Lingxin nodded obediently, accepting the instruction.

After leaving the Zhong family, Xuan Yuan felt that the entire dragon had come alive again.

He said to Zhong Lingxin, "Xiaoxin, the Mangyuan Mountains outside Minghe City are a good place for you to train now. Do you want to go and have some fun?"

Zhong Lingxin nodded hurriedly; she had the same idea.

Moreover, she also had a mission from her sect to find ten Green Rain Flowers.

The Green Rain Flower is the main ingredient in the Grade Three Nourishing Spirit Pill. It must bloom in a light drizzle, blooming in the rain and mist, a beautiful, verdant expanse.

However, the Green Rain Flower only blooms for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before it withers quickly.

Therefore, when harvesting Qingyuhua, you either pick dozens or hundreds of plants at once, or you can't pick a single one.

Minghe City receives abundant rainfall and is one of the main production areas of Qingyuhua (a type of wild chrysanthemum).

The man and the beast agreed that Zhong Lingxin would undergo training, and Uncle Xuanyuan would withdraw all his aura and follow her invisibly, never intervening unless Zhong Lingxin was in mortal danger.

Zhong Lingxin rubbed her hands together, eager to get started, and set off towards the Mangyuan Mountains.

She first went to a small town at the foot of the Mangyuan Mountains, bought some necessities for going into the mountains, declined invitations from several teams, and set off alone towards the outskirts.

There are many cultivators training in the outer areas, most of whom are junior cultivators in the Qi Refining stage led by their elders to fight first and second-tier demonic beasts.

Zhong Lingxin fought a Tier 2 Swift Rabbit to practice her skills.

Since she advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage, she hasn't fought a single demon beast.

Beside her came a mocking laugh: "A Foundation Establishment cultivator, trying to fight a Gale Rabbit! Probably just a fake Foundation Establishment cultivator."

Zhong Lingxin gave the mocking female cultivator a cold look.

She just hadn't fought any monsters in a long time and was itching to try.

Beside the female cultivator, a young man smiled humbly at Zhong Lingxin, stopping her from saying anything more.

Zhong Lingxin, not wanting to cause any more trouble, put away the Soul-Slaying Sword in her hand and continued walking into the Wilderness Mountains.

The place she was going to was the area between the outer and middle perimeters, where there were third-tier demonic beasts.

Before the female cultivator could say another sarcastic remark, the young male cultivator said gently, "Seventh Sister, if you don't behave, I'll have Uncle Yu send you back."

Upon hearing this, the female cultivator dared not speak further, but she held Zhong Lingxin in utter contempt.

She had spotted the Swift Rabbit from afar and wanted to show off her skills, but the female cultivator who suddenly appeared out of nowhere killed her with a single sword strike.

The man called Uncle Yu also advised the female cultivator: "Seventh Miss, that female cultivator is not someone you can mess with. Just the sword in her hand gave me a sense of awe."

Zhong Lingxin was extremely perceptive, and she turned around to look at Uncle Yu.

Uncle Yu gave her a fist bump as a gesture of goodwill.

Zhong Lingxin ignored them and continued walking forward.

After three days, third-tier spiritual plants began to appear.

Zhong Lingxin only picked the older ones, gathered a few plants and put them in the jade box, intending to take them back to the back mountain of Qingyang Cave to plant.

As night fell, the mountain wind brought a chill.

Zhong Lingxin jumped onto a big tree, sprinkled insect repellent powder on it, and planned to stay in the tree for the night before continuing her journey in the next day.

Xuan Yuan also lightly leaped onto the big tree, hung a small treehouse, and went to sleep.

Be careful, if you're going to be tested, then you should act like one. Go and enjoy the breeze on your own.

The moon climbed past its zenith, and the mountain wind blew even harder, howling loudly.

In the distance, the occasional roar of a beast echoed, its sound carried by the mountain wind straight to one's heart.

Zhong Lingxin remained seated on the tree trunk, devoting half of her attention to monitoring the surrounding ten miles.

In the distance, spiritual energy flickered a few times, followed by several screams.

Zhong Lingxin recognized the voice as that of the female cultivator who had mocked her during the day.

She didn't want to get involved and continued sitting cross-legged on the tree trunk.

Several howls of wolves drifted from afar, accompanied by the female cultivator's screams. In the dim moonlight, the sound was somewhat eerie.

Zhong Lingxin looked over.

On a hillside in the distance, various colored lights were constantly flashing.

The green light of the wolf's eyes also flashed intermittently in the flickering aura.

Zhong Lingxin looked closely and saw that there were at least several dozen Gale Wolves.

That's strange. The Gale Wolves' territory isn't here, so how did they get here?

Further away, shadowy figures darted rapidly towards them.

That's when even more fierce wolves came.

Zhong Lingxin looked up at the sky, where a crescent moon hung high in the air.

Looking down, she saw the Swift Wolf rushing towards her at high speed in the dim moonlight.

Two more cultivator camps were discovered by the Gale Wolves.

A flash of inspiration appeared in these two places, and two explosions of the explosive talismans rang out.

Zhong Lingxin sighed. Damn it, she wasn't going to have a peaceful night.

Sure enough, a slender wolf ran to the tree where Zhong Lingxin was standing, sniffed it carefully, and then looked up at the tree.

Zhong Lingxin was quick; with a single sword stroke, she slit the throat of the slender wolf, silencing its impending howl.

She quickly put the slender wolf into her storage ring.

Even so, the smell of blood still lingered in the mountain breeze.

More wolves followed the scent and rushed over.

Zhong Lingxin sighed; the wolves had discovered them so quickly.

She looked up and saw that not only had she been discovered, but three or four more camps had begun to glow.

Several wolves rushed to Zhong Lingxin's tree and all lowered their heads to sniff.

Zhong Lingxin understood.

When novice monks are training, they often like to sprinkle some insect and snake repellent.

The wolves detected the scent of these medicines, which is how they determined that there were cultivators nearby.

The two wolves looked up, their green eyes gleaming with an eerie green light. Their white fangs opened and closed in front of Zhong Lingxin on the tree trunk, emitting a series of low howls.

This is a summoning of companions.

Zhong Lingxin drew her sword again, and the Soul-Slaying Sword silently pierced through a wolf's head.

A wolf fell down.

The other wolves sensed something was wrong and scattered, howling as they fled.

Zhong Lingxin leaped down from the tree, chased after the slowest wolf, quickly killed it, and then ran without looking back towards a large tree a hundred feet away.
