It was slightly brighter the next day.
Everyone is gearing up and eager to try, just waiting for the captain's order.
Seeing that Ji Wu's team had begun to take action, Ji Yuanjie raised his hand and waved, "Let's go."
Inside the cave, it was as dark and dusty as before.
Ji Qingling pressed her palms against the cave wall, and when she touched a smooth object, she knew it was an insect egg, and Xue Ling'e should be nearby.
Sure enough, Ji Qingling quickly discovered it not far away. There were still eye-like patterns on its wings that could scare enemies to death.
Even though I was mentally prepared, I still felt a little nervous when I saw those two big eyes.
"Shh~ Brother Yuanjie, here."
Ji Yuanjie approached and confirmed, "Now move towards the entrance of the cave and watch me pierce it with my sword."
Everyone held their breath as they saw the sword tip really hit Xue Ling'e's head.
With a ding sound, Xue Ling'e's head tilted and the tip of her sword penetrated the stone wall.
Immediately, Fei'e broke away from the stone wall and flew in the air, staring at the Era Festival.
Alas, it is obviously not possible. Although Xue Ling'e has huge wings, her body is extremely flexible.
Thinking about the result of a move is just a fantasy in the Era Festival.
After all attempts failed, Ji Yuanjie had no choice but to say: "Let's stick to the original plan."
Except for the situation where the eggs are stolen, Xue Ling'e will only fight back against the enemy after being attacked, so they must take action first.
According to the previous plan, the Xue Ling'e was quickly hunted at the entrance of the cave.
The group entered the cave again and found another one in the same cave.
So they harvested a total of 132 eggs from the first cave.
This score should be enough to get first place in the quiz.
Soon Ji Qingling followed the team to the second cave. The entrance was narrow and could only accommodate one person.
Fortunately, the cave was much wider and darker and damper than before.
This time Ji Cheng found the Xue Ling'e, "Here it is!"
It's just that the entrance to the cave is narrow this time, and I couldn't draw the huge Ezi out several times.
In the end, I had to change my tactics. Ji Yuxue weaved a net with green vines and added it with Ji Qingling's golden armor technique.
After killing the last Xue Ling'e, Ji Yuxue had no strength to continue, so she started to cross her legs and adjust her breathing on the spot.
Ji Qingling also pretended to be weak. She sat down with her back against the stone wall and watched the others holding up the sunstone and looking for it.
She shook her head, feeling like there was something pushing against the back of her head.
She reached out and grabbed it, and caught an irregularly long mushroom.
The handle is crooked, and the small umbrella on the head is slightly opened, showing aura!
Ji Qingling stood up and raised the sunstone to look at the stone wall. There were several of the same mushrooms, some larger ones glowing with a dark golden halo.
Is this something good?
She tried to recall it in her mind, but couldn't find any useful information.
Huh? What's moving around here is Xue Ling'e's pupa?
One of them lay on the mushroom, and half of it was eaten.
Ji Qingling continued to fumble on the stone wall and found several smooth insect egg shells. They were called shells because there was a hole in each one.
These pupae probably crawled out of the holes. This was the first time she found empty shells of insect eggs.
A possibility flashed through Ji Qingling's mind.
Is it possible that those empty shells that disappeared before were eaten because the eggs needed energy when they broke out of their shells?
As for these discarded empty shells, it may be because the spiritual grass with rich spiritual energy below attracted them to come and eat directly.
It’s just that the empty shell of the chrysalis has been lost and its aura has also been lost. I wonder if these are still useful?
She collected all the empty shells and mushrooms on the stone wall.
They also finished collecting the Era Festival and were heading towards them.
"Brother Yuanjie, do you think these empty shells are still useful? What is this?"
"Hey, Golden Snake Ganoderma?" Ji Hui was the first to reach over.
"Do you know him?" Ji Qingling remembered that this should not be on the spiritual plant map.
Ji Hui looked at her angrily, "Do you know who my father is?"
Why are you starting to fight dad again?
See the obvious doubt on Ji Qingling's face.
"My father is the only golden elixir alchemist in the Ji family. The elixirs handed out to the clan on weekdays were all refined by him or his apprentices, and the same ones you take, so be nice to me in the future, you know?"
Oh, so Ji Hui is the kind of person who can really compete with the father in the family?
Ji Qingling felt that she had wronged Ji Hui before. If Ji Linhai was a golden elixir alchemist, she might have her tail raised higher than Ji Hui.
The Ninth Elder, the alchemist, whom she had only heard of but never seen with her own eyes, turned out to be Ji Hui’s father!
No wonder Ji Hui was hostile to the people of Xiaowang Mountain before. The red pearl tree was destroyed, and the Ninth Elder was afraid that he would almost lose his job.
In the early days of the Ninth Elder's Golden Pill, although his cultivation was not outstanding among the elders, his alchemy skills were the best in the family.
On weekdays, even the clan leader has to be polite to him. After all, there are only a few alchemists in Tongcheng who have reached the golden elixir level.
"Is this Golden Snake Ganoderma very rare? I think its spiritual power is so strong that it should be able to sell a lot of spiritual stones, right?"
What Ji Qingling was most concerned about was whether she was going to make another small fortune.
"Although the spiritual energy is rich, I can't sell a few spiritual stones. The function of this golden snake Ganoderma is to warm the kidneys and form yang, so people who cultivate immortals cannot use it."
Ji Hui shook her head with regret and returned the golden snake Ganoderma lucidum to Ji Qingling.
It turns out that it is used to warm the kidneys and yang. If it were put into the secular world, it would probably be popular, but it is really not very useful for immortal cultivators.
She picked up the empty egg shell again, "What about this one? Is this still useful?"
"This is probably useless. I saw that when my father used it to make medicine, there were always insect pupae in it."
Ji Qingling put away the empty shells with some regret, "Brother Yuanjie, do you want to hand this in?"
"I don't have any spiritual power anymore. I don't want it anymore."
"Then I'll keep it myself?"
"OK."
Their team collected all the loot, 254 Xueling'e eggs.
Epoch Day has already gone to inquire about other teams that can participate in the quiz. Not surprisingly, their team is firmly in first place.
Naturally, the trip back was with the brothers and sisters in the clan.
Feeling much more relaxed, Ji Qingling only had to walk in the middle of the team and play with her golden spirit root magic.
Ji Qingyuan saw that she was not in a high mood, and after caring about her several times, he only received the words "I'm in a bad mood."
~
On the third day after returning to Tongcheng, Ji Qingling found Ji Hui.
"What! Are you looking for my dad?"
Ji Qingling nodded, "Will it be difficult?"
Ji Hui shook her head, "It's nothing to be embarrassed about. It's just that my father is a bit cold-faced. If you get angry then, don't take it out on me."
"I promise not." Ji Qingling raised his finger to get up.
Ji Hui took her hand and said, "Then I'll go see what my father is doing now. You wait in my room first."
Ji Qingling looked around. The windows were bright and clean. There were not too many decorations, and simple items were placed in an orderly manner.
She was very grateful that Ji Hui didn't ask further, because she really couldn't tell clearly now.
"Qing Ling, come with me." After a while, Ji Hui came back and stood at the door waving to her.
In the yard of Ji Hui's house, most of the common spiritual flowers and herbs are planted, separated one by one and arranged in a square manner.
"My father and I planted these together. You can watch them and use them to make medicine."
The two walked to a house, and Ji Hui stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Dad, we are here."
"Come in." A gentle male voice came from the room.
Ji Qingling followed him into the room and saw a middle-aged man sitting on a low couch with several herbs placed side by side in front of him.
"Ji Qingling has met the Ninth Elder."
"Well, there's no need to be restrained. I heard Hui'er say that you and she are good friends, so just call me uncle."
Seeing Ji Hui nodding frequently, Ji Qingling changed his name to: "Uncle."
Now that the two of them had met, the Ninth Elder guessed that Ji Qingling had something to talk to him alone and signaled Ji Hui to go out first.
"Dad, I'm going out then. She is my good friend."
Hearing the small warning in his daughter's tone, the ninth elder had no choice but to say: "I understand, get out."
