Chapter 823: Chapter 436: Downgraded Treatment for the Seven Emotions Straw (2)

"After the Immortal Grass appeared, they had a group of disciples besiege the Holy Land Inheritor, stirring up a wave of blood, weaving a rain curtain to distract the West State Boss’s attention.

"Then, like a surprise force rising suddenly, they only aimed to snatch the Immortal Grass and immediately flee a thousand miles away, without even intending to collide with the West State Boss.

"His thinking was very clear and reasonable, without any flaws."

Wu Qingyun placed a hand on the Immortal Sword at her waist, watching the battlefield, instinctively shifting her steps, listening to her master explain, nodding as she did so.

"It’s a pity, they underestimated the West State Boss, underestimated the Purple Dragon Climb.

"Generally speaking, the power of the Purple Dragon Climb relies on its size and scale.

"How strong can the wrapping power of a thumb-thick snake be?

"How strong can the wrapping power of a bucket-thick python be?

"A conventional Purple Dragon Climb is like a python! Exaggerated in size, powerful and heavy!

"But this Great Immortal Technique is too cumbersome, not flexible.

"Like today on the battlefield, disputing within a limited space, the Purple Dragon Climb couldn’t unfold..."

While listening, Wu Qingyun gently nodded, watching the battlefield, recollecting the scenes she just saw, learning as she listened, and holding her master’s words in her heart.

"...But no one expected that his Purple Dragon Climb could be refined to such an extent!

"The power of a python, the body of a snake, the strength of an Immortal Artifact, breaking through the sound barrier, erupting in an instant within limited space, thunderous in power, killing in a blink!"

Wu Qingyun recalled, feeling a bizarre taste in her heart... When could she also reach such a level?

"Moreover, that Purple Dragon Climb has suction cups, has suction!

"In that instant, it not only tied up the prince’s hands, not only captured but also held with suction cups, making it impossible for him to break free!"

In a dream, Wu Qingyun’s master was donning iron armor, a sword hung at his waist, his graying hair tied into a bun, neat and tidy, speaking eloquently.

As she spoke, her face was also full of astonishment.

"This Snake Nest Kingdom, this Purple Dragon Climb, are considered the top Immortal Techniques in the world today!"

Wu Qingyun furrowed her brows and suddenly asked.

"Master, if this subterranean Snake Nest Kingdom were placed in the Ancient Immortal Dynasty, would it also be considered top tier?"

"That wouldn’t count."

"What about this Purple Dragon Climb?"

"This Purple Dragon Climb... in the Ancient Immortal Dynasty, it probably never appeared.

"Heh, to put it this way, today not only you but even I, your master, have gained a new understanding!"

Wu Qingyun stared at the chopped-in-half corpses, observing their wounds, their postures, thinking as she looked.

"So, Master, did this prince try his best?"

"Of course not."

"And the West State Boss?"

"I suppose... not either."

...

Hoo...

Cold wind poured into the Bronze Hall.

A circle of fuzzy heads gathered around, looking at the ’Seven Emotions Straw.’

"Could this be the Immortal Grass handed down by the Yaochi Holy Land?"

It was seen that this Immortal Grass was planted in a Bronze Flower Pot and was trembling uncontrollably.

Its stem was straight and segmented, like bamboo!

Looking from bottom to top, it has seven bamboo joint branches.

On each joint, seven more bamboo joint branches grow.

"The appearance is quite exquisite."

Bai Mo looked left and right.

The foxes also approached, their eyes full of affectionate smiles.

"Ying ying ying!"

The Immortal Grass lost to the outside world by Fox Mountain, finally, a stalk has returned!

"Aow aow aow?"

After so many years outside, has it been eating well? Drinking well? Look at this thin bamboo joint, all starved!

It was Bai Mo’s first time seeing this Immortal Grass. While observing, she pondered, quickly recalling similar literature she had seen before, scanning for similar Immortal Grass.

The foxes either held a kettle or fertilizer, all waiting, awaiting the master’s arrangements.

Minutes later, Bai Mo came back to her senses, again observing this Immortal Grass.

"Stalk-type Immortal Grass, with hollow bamboo joints, it can absorb the seven emotions of people.

"For millennia, in religious settings, it absorbed too many emotions, giving it a bit of spirituality.

"The large cedar tree in that Buddhist Temple before, was controlled by it, wasn’t it?

"And moreover..."

Bai Mo saw this pot of Seven Emotions Straw secretly extend a root from underneath the flower pot. This root crept along the table surface, along the table leg, stealthily crawling over the ground, then through the tile cracks, heading towards the pots of Immortal Grass behind Bai Mo.

Even the root split into three, one crawled towards Harlan Zhongli, one towards Timid Daisy, one towards Heaven-Covering Leaf!

"This...

"What does this mean?"

"Aoo?"

"Eee?"

The foxes followed the master’s gaze and turned their eyes to the floor, towards that root.

What does this imply?

To connect with Immortal Grass of Fox Mountain and start a rebellion together?

Small and Big Eyes put down the kettle.

Black Ears put down the fertilizer.

A pair of eyes stared together.

Seeing the root branching towards Harlan Zhongli, climbing on the Harlan Zhongli flower pot.

While the branches and leaves of Harlan Zhongli swayed, rustling, desperately avoiding in the opposite direction, unwilling to associate with it!

Seeing the root branching towards Timid Daisy, climbing on Timid Daisy flower pot.

While from the center of Timid Daisy, a fragrant scent emitted, forming a wall of protective barrier, keeping it out!

Seeing the root branching towards Heaven-Covering Leaf, climbing on Heaven-Covering Leaf vase.

With a sudden release of a breath from Heaven-Covering Leaf, the root trembled and shattered into fragments, with juice splashing all over!

The foxes nodded lightly.

They were quite satisfied with the performance of these three pots of their own Immortal Grass.

Then they looked at this Seven Emotions Straw pot, seeing it shake timidly, retracting the extended roots, passing the floor, returning to the table legs, retracting to the table surface, back into the pot, pretending nothing had happened.

Bai Mo tugged at the corner of his mouth.

"This..."

The foxes squinted their eyes.

"Eee ee ee!"

"Aoo aoo aoo!"

Silly mistake!

This is not Immortal Grass that fell out from Fox Mountain!

This thing, like Black Ghost Eye, belongs to the captives from Fox Mountain!

Bai Mo nodded.

"Its Immortal Grass privilege, canceled.

"Temporarily arrange it with the same labor intensity as Black Ghost Eye.

"Start with labor reform.

"If it can be reformed well, we’ll see about the future."

...

The day rushed by.

As dusk settled, the dining hall in Fox Mountain became lively again.

The foxes, their fiery figures gathered around small stone tables.

Peach Blossom Eyes holding a bowl of chilled salad, tilted his head, speaking in fox language, boasting to Star Ear and Moon Ear about the new captive Immortal Grass.

"Eee ee ee, aoo aoo aoo aoo..."

Black Necklace, grabbing a small spoon, gesturing animatedly, boasting to Big Flower Arm and Hu Toujian about running errands in the Buddhist Temple, about the tacit collaboration with the master, wielding the stem of Purple Earth Dragon, defeating the enemy in one move!

"Aoo aoo aoo, eee eee aoo aoo..."

The dining hall chef Dark Circles, along with several senior brothers, boasting about his specially made chilled salad!

"Aoo aoo, eee ee eee aoo aoo..."

He used a small spoon to scoop a ball that looked like silver ear fungus, wrinkled and soft, explaining to White Moon!

This was the result of painstaking research in the dining hall for half a month, trying various recipes, processes, techniques, and temperatures, eating countless failures, paying the price of gaining four pounds due to work-related injuries, developing the absorbing gluten ball of composite flour!

This single gluten ball looked ordinary but could absorb all the soy sauce, vinegar, chili oil, sesame paste, honey, and sesame oil from the chilled salad!

"Ah woo..."

He stuffed the gluten ball into his mouth, chewing with closed lips, squinting with a face full of happiness.

This ultra-sauce-absorbent gluten ball indeed full of juice, incredibly flavorful, bursting with juice in one bite!

Bai Mo sat at the edge of the dining hall, reading the fake pill literature supported by Ancient Immortals, while eating.

The quality of literature given on the copper plate in hand was quite good, with some unique insights, prompting Bai Mo to repeatedly express appreciation.

"These fraudsters in research do have some skills.

"They never think of tackling problems head-on; they always look for ways to circumvent them.

"This can’t be the proper attitude for doing research.

"But... their thinking is indeed very flexible!"

Bai Mo chuckled at various opportunistic ideas while reading.

"This Water Image Pill seems... to have a lead?"

After reading this copper plate, he placed it beside, ate today’s gluten ball, his mouth crunching, wondering in his heart with some uncertainty.
