Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All

128 There Is No Time in Cultivation

It was because the little squirrel was immune to all the restrictions that it was able to run to Song Qingfeng’s cave. Seeing that Dong Xi had understood, Song Qingfeng continued, “You should be happy that it came to me. If you went to other places, I’m afraid you would be implicated.”

Dong Xi frowned and her expression became serious.

“Thank you, Senior Brother, for stopping it for me,” Dong Xi said sincerely with cupped fists. “I’ll compensate you for the spirit plants.”

Song Qingfeng did not care too much. There were spirit herbs in the yard anyway. Even if he strolled around, he could stomp a few third-grade spirit herbs to death.

The reason why he said that was just to tease.

Looking at Dong Xi’s serious expression, Song Qingfeng thought for a while and said, “It’s not necessary. Didn’t I tell you to catch more fish in the Secret Realm? You can pay with fish.”

When Dong Xi heard this, she immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

She might not have caught anything else, but she had caught quite a few fish.

With the fish in one hand and the goods in the other, Dong Xi carefully ‘redeemed’ Songsong back into her hands.

Songsong lay softly on Dong Xi’s arm with its eyes closed. If one got close, one could hear it breathing.

The corner of Dong Xi’s mouth twitched a few times. She looked up at Song Qingfeng and asked, “Senior Brother, how long will this little thing sleep for?”

Song Qingfeng returned to his soft couch and said lightly, “That depends on how long this little thing can take to absorb the spirit plant. It could be a few months, or a few years. It depends on this little thing’s own luck.”

Dong Xi sighed softly. Forget it. In the future, it would be safer to put it in the jade pendant.

Song Qingfeng looked at Dong Xi’s worried face and comforted him, “There’s no time in Immortal cultivation. Don’t mind it too much. When you wake up next time, you’ll be able to advance.”

Dong Xi nodded. This could be considered a good thing!

After leaving Song Qingfeng’s cave, Dong Xi sat on Xiao Yezi and returned to the cave.

More than a month had passed, and she wondered what the five seeds were like now.

As soon as Dong Xi landed, she immediately went to take a look at the experimental field.

She looked at the experimental field, then at the red flowers she had brought back and planted at the side. Why did it feel a little off?

Some of the surrounding plants had their nutrients taken away by the flower, and they became a little wilted.

As for the two spirit plants that were originally nearby, they had also moved to other places.

This? What was happening? Spirit plants could walk on their own?

Dong Xi was extremely curious, and she might as well take action.

Dong Xi used her wood spiritual energy to protect a spirit plant and carefully dug it out, wanting to plant the spirit plant next to the red flower.

However, just as she was about to plant it, she saw the leaves of the spirit plant trembling.

Dong Xi stood up and was about to walk into the cave abode when she discovered that the spirit herbs were actually quietly moving to the side.

Dong Xi’s soft eyes were truly a sight to behold! The spirit plants could move on their own?

What kind of monster was this? In the ‘Complete Guide to Spirit Plants’ she had read before, it said that if one found such a Spirit Ginseng Plant, they had to immediately use ‘Ground Prison’ spell to lock it down. Otherwise, who knew where they would run to next time?

Could it be that the one moving was a Spirit Ginseng Plant?

With such a thought in mind, Dong Xi was somewhat satisfied.

If it was a ginseng, its grade would definitely not be low, so there was no need to throw away the frog statue.

This time, Dong Xi did not plant the spirit herbs by force. He was only worried that this ginseng would run around like Songsong, so she used Ground Prison.

When she returned to the cave, Dong Xi was completely relaxed.

Sure enough, no matter how good other places were, they could not be better than his own ‘kennel’!

Dong Xi put Songsong on her lap, took out the Complete Guide to Demon Beasts that Second Senior Brother had borrowed, and turned to the page where Songsong was.

The Broodbreak Squirrel was a tier 1 demon beast. It could grow, and its peak level was still unknown.

Unknown?

Dong Xi was a little confused. The word ‘unknown’ usually meant two extremes.

One was extremely powerful, while the other was indescribably arrogant.

Dong Xi did not dare to think too much. If her expectations were too high, the disappointment would be too great. It was better not to have too much hope for a guy who could transform grass into a tree.

Dong Xi found it a little difficult to carry such a large book, so she placed Songsong, who was sleeping on her lap, on her shoulder and placed the book on her lap to continue reading.

This page had detailed records of the habits and skills of the Broodbreak Squirrel. It ate all kinds of spirit fruits and nuts as its food. Although it was very timid, it was very alert. Someone had seen this little fellow in the Daxing Forest of the Eastern Continent before, but he had only seen it once before disappearing without a trace.

Dong Xi read it carefully and looked at the limp Songsong. She suddenly fell silent.

Timid but very alert?

However, Songsong was rather reckless. Could it be that she was the only one like this, and she so happened to meet it? It can’t be such a coincidence, right?
