I conquered the cultivation world with scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

"General, one of the devices here has lost contact."

"Missing? Which examinee?"

"Jiang He, candidate number 4888 from Beihuai City".

"Send me your last known location."

"Yes."

Qi Xun frowned slightly as he looked at the position on the small screen. He had quite a few impressions of this candidate.

Especially the seven spiritual roots are extremely rare. In addition, Jiang He's performance in the written test and team competition was outstanding. Upon hearing Jiang He's name, Qi Xun immediately set off for the last place where she appeared.

The last scene Qi Xun saw of Jiang He was her being completely surrounded by bone monsters, which suggests that the instrument was destroyed at that time.

With so many C-level bone monsters, it's hard to imagine how a Foundation Establishment cultivator could survive.

Qi Xun knew it was a dead end, but he still did not give up the rescue.

There are many young lives here.

Jiang He faced the most bone monsters, and normally, this would be the closest place to an S-rank bone monster.

The tunnel was very long. Just as Qi Xun was about to continue, the ground began to move again, and a strong tremor came through. The tunnel ahead completely collapsed.

-

The fresh blood on Jiang He's body attracted the bone monster.

At the same time, the spiritual energy brought by the tomatoes enabled Jiang He to finally break through that constraint.

Jiang He could clearly sense the widening of the spiritual veins.

After absorbing a whole tomato, Jiang He finally broke through the early stage of Foundation Establishment and reached the middle stage.

In an instant, all the surrounding spiritual energy was absorbed, and the wounds healed more quickly.

When the bleeding from her skin stopped, Jiang He took out her sword, and all her strength was restored.

This time, she could clearly feel that her cultivation level had jumped to the mid-stage peak of Foundation Establishment, rather than the level she had before Foundation Establishment.

Or perhaps Jiang He absorbed a lot of the bone monster's crystal cores, and with the boost to her cultivation, the sword energy she unleashed became increasingly frenzied.

She peeled the bone monster off her body and then began to kill it while absorbing spiritual energy.

Before advancing to the next level, Jiang He had killed about fifty bone monsters. Judging from the endless horde of bone monsters, she roughly estimated that there were still a few dozen left.

The energy required for advancement was too much. Jiang He hadn't fainted after swallowing a whole tomato, so she swallowed another tomato.

As the sweet and sour fruit entered her mouth, Jiang He felt her body filled with spiritual energy. Although her skin bled, this side effect was negligible in the face of the Bone-Slaying Monster.

She tried to cast a few spells instantly with her staff. Even with ample spiritual energy, Jiang He felt that casting spells so quickly was a bit of a luxury.

However, the bone monsters in front of her seemed endless, so to avoid a repeat of the previous situation, Jiang He decided to increase the damage.

After defeating about seventy bone monsters, Jiang He's speed noticeably increased.

When the last bone monster in front of her turned into white bone dust, Jiang He, who was supporting the sword, could no longer hold on and fell straight down.

Each spiritual vein expanded to varying degrees after advancing. Jiang He lay on the ground, her two hands, which were taking turns holding the sword, trembled uncontrollably.

She shook for a long time before finally managing to shake out a healing pill from her mustard seed bag.

Jiang He was so angry at her own actions that she laughed. Her trembling right hand inexplicably saw scenes of the cafeteria aunt serving her food.

After taking the pill, Jiang He ate a bowl of rice, saying she was hungry.

We finished the scrambled eggs with tomatoes and the wolf-tooth potatoes; all that was left was the cooked rice.

Even without side dishes, Jiang He ate with great relish.

Because he ate his meal while lying on the ground, Qi Xun was initially hesitant to recognize Jiang He when he saw her.

After the passage collapsed, Qi Xun decisively used his spiritual power to forcefully open a passage.

The S-class Bone Monster was enough to kill him instantly, but the key problem was that the Bone Monster was extremely cunning. It was able to deceive the eyes of countless researchers in the laboratory and then successfully escape, and its stealth methods were extraordinary.

It would be difficult for Qi Xun to find the Bone Monster, so he followed Jiang He's location.

Qi Xun's spiritual root was a single-element wood spiritual root. The wooden sword formed from spiritual energy kept clearing the way in front of him until the passageway reappeared.

Qi Xuncai continued forward following Jiang He's location.

The deeper he went, the more bone dust he found on the ground; the bone dust was the corpse of the bone monster.

The presence of a lot of bone powder indicated that a fight had taken place there, so Qi Xun didn't delay any longer and quickened his pace.

However, as he walked, the bone powder became thicker and thicker. It wasn't until he stepped on it that a white, indented footprint appeared, and Qi Xun realized just how many bone monster corpses there were in this area.

Thinking of the last scene he saw of Jiang He, those bone monsters rushed towards the cultivator and were eventually "swallowed up".

Qi Xun jogged forward, kicking up thick clouds of white dust with each step he took.

The accumulated white ash was far more than just the dozens of bone monsters he had initially seen.

Qi Xun is a healing-type cultivator; his wood spirit root can both kill and heal cultivators.

Upon seeing the bone powder, Qi Xun desperately wished he could have acted even faster.

Jiang He lay prone, her hand trembling as she scooped up a spoonful of rice. Just as she was about to put it in her mouth, dust flew up and bone powder splattered, and a figure loomed over the cave.

Qi Xun just watched as Jiang He lay on the ground, putting the white, unidentified object into her mouth.

His gaze was so intense that Jiang He couldn't ignore it no matter how hard she tried. She looked up at Qi Xun, and unsure of what expression to make, she grinned and greeted him.

"What a coincidence, Teacher Qi."

Jiang He's expression was so forced that Qi Xun couldn't tell whether she was laughing or crying.

Jiang He's hand trembled, and she lost her grip on the spoon, causing the rice to roll onto the ground and become covered in a thick layer of bone meal.

Now look what happened! Jiang He, who already didn't know what expression to make, had a smile on her face that looked even uglier than a cry.

Qi Xun had no idea that what Jiang He was holding was food. All the bone monster corpses along the way were real. He just thought that the child might be stressed from fighting monsters, otherwise why would she be lying on the ground eating strange things?

Moreover, Jiang He's body, which is entirely made of blood, is too deceptive.

As soon as Jiang He finished greeting him, Qi Xun quickly grabbed her armpit, lifted her up in one smooth motion, and then channeled wood elemental energy into her.

There's no way we could fake so many bone monster corpses.

Qi Xun knew that Jiang He had most likely eliminated all the bone monsters. This was a dead end for Foundation Establishment cultivators, but Jiang He successfully broke the deadlock. Qi Xun felt gratified, but his gaze towards Jiang He also became full of pity.

This child must have suffered a lot of injuries.

Qi Xun examined Jiang He's injuries several times and finally found that apart from a muscle strain caused by overexertion, Jiang He had no other major injuries, and even the wounds on her body had clotted.

Now it was Qi Xun's turn to be somewhat surprised. Among so many bone monsters, the cultivator in front of him had not only advanced in cultivation but was also unharmed. He silently withdrew his hand and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Jiang He didn't have any special insights. Qi Xun's wood-type spiritual energy was too gentle, and after wandering around for a while, Jiang He felt a little drowsy.

However, she knew she couldn't fall asleep yet. Even Qi Xun had appeared, which meant the seriousness of the situation.
