"The power of wood - vine thorns!" Hibiscus Yan in the distance quickly formed a seal, and saw countless sharp barbs suddenly appearing on the thick trunk of the ancient tree. The barbs appeared with a cold glow, glowing with a chilling cold light. Each barb was several meters long.
At this time, the fox lion had completely lost its mind. When it realized that it was trying to hit the countless barbs with all its strength, it was already too late.
At the last moment, Mu Jinyang, who was riding on the back of the fox lion, grabbed the spreading branches of the ancient tree and swung out!
"Poof! Poof! Poof! Poof!"
There was a sound of crisp skin piercing through the jungle. Ruan Li looked down and saw that the entire body of the fox-lion was pierced by barbs. It was hung on an ancient tree and made no sound!
I took a deep breath of the turbid air in my body. Great, I was saved again!
Coming down from the tree, Ruan Li thanked him weakly: "Thank you both for helping me."
The effects of the two Yuling Pills were still working in her body, and her body no longer hurt as much as before.
The two Mu brothers looked at Ruan Li in front of them, and Mu Jinyan discovered that she had no spiritual power.
"Are you a mortal?" The tone was a bit shocked.
Ruan Li nodded without denying it.
Mu Jinyang asked: "You are not the queen of the Tiangui City family? Then why do you come to such a dangerous place?"
Only children of aristocratic families were eligible to participate in the Tiangui Sect's entry trial. Seeing that Ruan Li was a mortal without spiritual power, Mu Jinyang subconsciously thought that she was an ordinary citizen.
"I'm from the Ruan family." Ruan Li didn't hide anything.
"Ah?" Mu Jinyang was surprised. He thought for a moment and looked at his second brother and said, "Isn't the Ruan family Ruan Heng this year?"
After finishing his words, he looked at Ruan Li in shock: "Are you that... the young lady of the Ruan family who has no spiritual power - Ruan Li?"
Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.
It was widely known in the early years that he had no spiritual roots and no spiritual intelligence. It was precisely because of this that he brought shame to the family and forced them to leave home.
Many years have passed, and I thought everyone had forgotten it, but as soon as I mentioned it, it was remembered again.
But Ruan Li was not ashamed and nodded generously.
Mu Jinyang was shocked and sighed: "It seems that you were sent by the Ruan family to make up for the loss. It is a miracle that you survived!"
As he said that, he couldn't help but look at the young man's body on the ground: "Is this your partner? He looks dead!"
Because the trial to join the sect is too dangerous, many people who participate in the trial will find a companion in advance so that they can take care of them when the time comes.
It's just this boy in white...
The two of them had indeed discussed traveling together a moment ago. Although it was only for a moment, they could be regarded as short-term companions.
It's a pity that I don't even know his name.
"There is no time to waste here now. We have to hurry up to get the crystal core of this monster. If we can't get out before dark, the trial will fail!" Mu Jinyan didn't ask any other questions, but urged. Brother, don't dawdle.
Seeing this, Ruan Li quickly said: "Can I go with you?"
Hearing this, Mu Jinyang looked at his second brother subconsciously. It was obvious that the elder brother was the one who made the final decision between the two.
Mu Jinyan frowned slightly, his face a bit stern, but Ruan Li's eyes were sincere, and his watery eyes were full of desire for survival.
She didn't want to die here, and she didn't want to leave her parents and younger siblings!
"Second brother, she has a mortal body. Leaving her behind is equivalent to killing her!" Mu Jinyang said unbearably.
Mu Jinyan said: "The entrance trial of Tiangui Sect is a narrow escape from death, and we can only barely protect ourselves."
It's not that he is cold-blooded, but the entry trial is crucial to everyone, and no one wants to be a burden to them.
Ruan Li knew this truth, but as Mu Jinyang said, if he didn't follow them, he would only die.
"I will only follow you. If you encounter a desperate situation, you two will just protect yourself. I will have no complaints if you leave me!" Ruan Li begged: "At least at this moment, give me some hope of living?"
Mu Jinyang also gently tugged on his brother's clothes.
At the end, Mu Jinyan nodded with a cold face.
The three of them came to the body of the fox lion. Mu Jinyan stretched out his hand to release spiritual power on its abdomen. After a while, three monster crystal cores exuding spiritual energy slowly floated out.
A third-level monster has three crystal cores.
"It's a rule that the discoverer and the hunter should share the prize equally! One prize for each of the three of us!" Mu Jinyang said.
Ruan Li was slightly startled. He was obviously the discoverer he mentioned. But he didn’t discover the monster at all, it was the monster that discovered him.
"I don't want it, you can take it!" Ruan Li said softly: "I haven't developed my intelligence yet, so I can't absorb this crystal core."
"The crystal core of the fox lion is condensed with the energy of grass and trees. It is most suitable for the abilities of your Mu family. The effect is twice the result with half the effort. It is very suitable for you!"
"You can't practice without spiritual roots, but you know a lot about these monsters. You even know that the crystal core of the fox lion is the energy of vegetation." Mu Jinyang was a little surprised.
Ruan Liying: "It is precisely because I cannot practice, so I can only read more books and comprehend."
She does know more than most people. Over the years, she has been reading every day. As long as it is related to cultivation, she will read any book.
"Then we'll trade this with you." Mu Jinyan suddenly took out a pill and spread his palm in front of Ruan Li.
The pills had a strong smell. Ruan Li judged it through the color of the pills and the smell in his nose: "Calming Pill?"
"Okay, you can recognize this!" Mu Jinyang was surprised again.
Many elixirs are similar in color and shape, and some have only subtle differences that cannot be distinguished without looking carefully.
But Ruan Li could directly tell that it was the Calming Pill, which shows that although she doesn't know how to practice, she has other abilities.
"Really give it to me?" Ruan Li looked at Mu Jinyan.
She wants to eat!
The Dingshen Pill has the effect of strengthening the body, nourishing Qi and blood, and is just suitable for me who is seriously injured at this time.
Although it is only a low-grade elixir, because the refining process requires a spiritual plant called Lotus Silver Grass, which is very rare, the Dingshen Pill is also a very precious elixir.
Maybe she should be polite, but in this situation, she didn't want to think about anything other than survival.
Mu Jinyan nodded.
Mu Jinyang urged: "We have collected your crystal core, you should also accept this pill. Take it now, and you will be able to walk faster in a while!"
Ruan Li picked it up and swallowed it without saying a word.
Oh my god, it’s so hard!
Worse than her life!
"Let's go." Mu Jinyan put the crystal cores into the storage bag, and did not forget to look at Ruan Li and warn: "Follow closely and don't make a sound."
Ruan Li nodded and limped behind the two of them, and the group of three headed towards the exit of Jiling Mountain in the east.
The sun is setting in the west, and Jiling Mountain, which is usually quiet and peaceful, is now frightened and birds are flying. I wonder how many young people seeking immortality will perish here!
