The Terrifying Sacrificial Spirit?
Before long, the group arrived at the village entrance.
Mu Wanqing was immediately shocked when she saw the Small Mountain Village in front of her.
Because she discovered... the source of the endless gathering of Spiritual Qi was actually this Small Mountain Village!
What kind of village is this?
It can actually absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi?
"This senior... must be a powerful being who has set up some kind of terrifying magic array around the village, right?"
She was guessing!
"Come with me."
Li Fan led her inside.
Upon entering the Small Mountain Village, Mu Wanqing's eyes widened in surprise.
She saw a plum tree at the entrance of the village!
That plum tree... clearly gave her an overwhelming sense of terror!
Is this the Sacrificial Spirit of this Small Mountain Village?
So powerful!
It's likely that even among village-level forces, it would be considered an incredibly powerful Sacrificial Spirit!
I wonder what price must be paid to maintain such a Sacrificial Spirit!
She felt conflicted and subconsciously looked towards the base of the plum tree.
She saw the mud!
Hiss!
She couldn't help but gasp, because the soil at the base of the plum tree... its Spiritual Qi energy was clearly visible to the naked eye!
This is a supreme spiritual land!
No wonder, no wonder this Small Mountain Village possesses such a terrifying Sacrificial Spirit. Is this sacred land the price the Small Mountain Village paid?
Isn't this price far too high?
She trembled, if only, if only she could get even one...
Perhaps this could extend the life of the Sacrificial Spirit for a while?
But how should I bring it up?!
Such precious and supreme soil, even a single grain is probably worth a fortune, and it could fetch an astronomical price at auction!
Wood Spirit Village... is not qualified to take it!
"Hmm? What's wrong? Want some plums? They're not ripe yet."
Li Fan smiled.
Mu Wanqing hesitated greatly, but finally spoke, saying:
"Senior, Qingwan... Qingwan wishes to request a few soil samples from the roots of this sacred tree!"
Her face was filled with apprehension and shame!
She knew just how unreasonable her request was!
She felt incredibly ashamed!
However, in order to Sacrificial Spirit...
For the sake of Wood Spirit Village...
I can't worry about that now!
Upon hearing this, Li Fan was taken aback.
Do you want the soil from the base of this plum tree?
But Li Fan immediately realized that he had specifically treated the soil in the village for pest and disease control!
In a sense, this soil can protect fruit trees from various diseases.
It's surprising that Mu Qingwan is an agricultural expert, able to identify the uses of this soil.
To possess such agricultural knowledge and refinement at such a young age.
That's enough, that's enough.
Originally, Li Fan planned to go back to the Small Courtyard to research and prepare some more medicines for her.
However, it seems that since Mu Qingwan is an agricultural expert, she must be confident in the condition of the grapevines.
Since she thought the mud was usable, Li Fan didn't bother to put in any more effort.
"Of course, take as much as you want."
Li Fan spoke with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Mu Qingwan was taken aback.
What?!
This senior... actually granted my almost impudent request?! He actually allowed me to take this High God soil?!
She was overjoyed.
Sky!
What an incredible fortuitous opportunity!
She was so grateful she wanted to cry, and said:
"Thank you so much, senior! Thank you so much, senior!"
Li Fan smiled and said, "It was nothing, not worth mentioning."
"Then you go ahead and get busy. If you need anything, feel free to contact me."
Li Fan immediately led a group of disciples back.
After they left.
Mu Qingwan took a deep breath.
She stepped forward and knelt deeply before the plum tree!
"Supreme Sacrificial Spirit, I, Mu Qingwan, beg you for some sacred soil in order to save the Sacrificial Spirit of our Wood Spirit Village!"
"Please don't blame me, Qingwan really had no choice!"
She was incredibly devout!
Because the Sacrificial Spirit are incredibly powerful beings, and this plum tree is even more unimaginable!
You must be respectful and courteous.
Otherwise, if they get angry, it might not just be her, but the entire Wood Spirit Village could be destroyed!
However, the plum tree remained completely still.
It was as if they hadn't heard at all.
She hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward respectfully and gently picked up three small grains of soil with her hand!
Her hands were trembling.
"Things shouldn't happen more than three times, I hope the Sacrificial Spirit won't be angry..."
She retreated with difficulty, keeping her head down, not daring to look at the plum tree!
Finally, the sacred soil was obtained, and this terrifying Sacrificial Spirit master did not become angry!
She breathed a long sigh of relief; how lucky she was!
"Thank you, Sacrificial Spirit Master! Wood Spirit Village is deeply grateful to you!"
After saying this, she bowed deeply in the direction where Li Fan and the others had left.
Only then did they leave the Small Mountain Village.
She left quickly.
Retrace back the way you came.
Before long, they arrived at the woods they had been in before.
Mu Jing and the others are waiting anxiously.
"Sigh, that fat man and that terrifying black dog, I don't know if they're good or evil... their origins are unknown, I really shouldn't have let Wanqing go with them!"
Mu Jing gripped the spear, overwhelmed with self-reproach.
"Brother Mu Jing, I'm back."
At that moment, a voice came.
Immediately, Mu Jing and the others hurriedly looked over.
Upon seeing Mu Wanqing, Mu Jing and the others were overjoyed and excited!
"Wanqing, you're finally back!"
Mu Jing hurriedly stepped forward and said:
Are you alright? Did they hurt you?
Mu Wanqing shook her head and said:
"I'm fine, I've arrived at an incredibly powerful village!"
"And... I've also found something that can revive the Sacrificial Spirit!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Jing's expression changed drastically, and he said:
"Wanqing, are you telling the truth?"
Mu Wanqing nodded, her heart pounding as she looked at the brocade box hidden in her sleeve. "We must return to the village immediately!" she exclaimed.
"Good!"
Mu Jing and the others set off immediately!
And at this moment.
At the foot of a mountain, in a village.
In front of this village, there grows a huge locust tree!
The locust tree had incredibly dense branches.
The most bizarre thing was that there were actually baby corpses hanging on the locust tree!
The corpses, pierced by the branches of the locust tree, had all their nutrients absorbed by the tree, leaving them withered and swaying in the wind.
Sophora Spirit Village!
"My son!"
A cry of pain rang out from the village!
A middle-aged man, his face filled with hatred!
He is Huai Ren Dong, the village chief of Huai Ling Village!
Huai An was his son, but now... he's dead!
They died under mysterious circumstances; in fact, their bodies could not be found.
"Village Chief, it must have been done by Wood Spirit Village!"
"How dare Wood Spirit Village lay a hand on my nephew Huai An! They deserve to die!"
"We should attack!"
The people of Sophora Spirit Village all spoke in deep voices!
A ruthless glint flashed across Huai Rendong's face as he said:
"I'm going to pay homage to the Sacrificial Spirit and destroy the Wood Spirit Village!"
According to the original plan, they were to wait for a while longer until the Sacrificial Spirit of Wood Spirit Village was completely dead.
Only then did they begin.
But now, he can't take it anymore!
Soon, the villagers offered three babies to the locust tree.
As soon as the locust tree branch moved, the three babies were pierced directly onto the strips of paper.
The baby cried loudly, and was quickly drained dry by the locust tree!
"Please Sacrificial Spirit, help us! We will make Wood Spirit Village pay for its blood debt!"
Huai Rendong spoke in a deep voice!
Suddenly, a branch of the locust tree broke off.
It fell into Huai Rendong's hands.
This is for the Sacrificial Spirit.
Soon.
Dusk falls.
The setting sun was like blood.
Mu Jing and the others finally returned to the village.
Wailing and wailing could be heard from the village.
"Father... Father, please wake up!"
"A'san, how can I live if you die!"
"My son..."
Men, women, young and old, many people were crying.
Mu Qingwan and the others hurriedly entered the village.
They saw a dozen or so corpses lined up in a row!
These are all villagers who were sent out by the village today to search for treasure!
"Uncle Nanshan, what exactly happened? What happened?"
Mu Jing asked a question to a middle-aged man in charge.
The middle-aged man wore bronze armor and had a chiseled face. He was Mu Nanshan, the strongest among the middle-aged generation in the village!
A look of grief and indignation flashed across Mu Nanshan's face as he said:
"Sophora Spirit Village!"
"They sniped at us!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Jing and the others instantly felt a burning hatred!
"Sophora Spirit Village!"
Mu Wanqing gritted her teeth and clenched her fists!
"Carry them before the Sacrificial Spirit, hold a funeral, and then bury them!"
At this moment, on the other side, the Village Chief Mu Rantian, who had been silent in front of the old Old Vine for a long time, spoke up.
The villagers carried the body over.
"Village Chief, we must take revenge!"
"We must have our revenge!"
Many people exclaimed!
Even Mu Nanshan said:
"We are locked in a life-or-death struggle with Sophora Spirit Village!"
However, a hint of reluctance flashed in Mu Rantian's eyes, and he said:
"No!"
"The Sacrificial Spirit's condition is unstable; we absolutely cannot afford another major battle!"
At this moment, Mu Wanqing stepped forward and said:
"Grandpa Village Chief... I..."
"We've found a treasure that can prolong the lives of Sacrificial Spirit!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.
All eyes turned to Mu Wanqing!
