Ch265 - Celestial Spiritual Wood

There were three kinds of poisonous flowers planted in the corridor, all of which were shade-loving and accustomed to growing in damp burrows, and they were all extremely poisonous. If ordinary cultivators walked in, before they could take ten steps along the corridor, they would die within a short period of time, however, to Liu Mufeng, these three kinds of poisonous flowers were really child’s play compared to the 108 kinds of traps of the Great Elder.

In less than half a day, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu arrived at the front door of the Muze Palace. Without touching the Palace door, Liu Mufeng directly used spiritual power to shake the Palace door open.

Standing at the door, looking at the resplendent Muze Hall with carved beams and painted pillars, Jiang Xu couldn’t help raising his eyebrows. “This place is much more beautiful than the Great Elder’s Palace.”

“It’s really beautiful, but it’s also very dangerous.” As he spoke, Liu Mufeng raised his hand and directly released the Wisteria Vine.

Flying from Liu Mufeng’s wrist, the purple vines immediately excitedly attacked a beautiful flower vine on the vermilion pillar. In the blink of an eye, the two vines became entangled with each other.

“That vine is alive!” Seeing this scene, Jiang Xu was shocked. Just now, he thought that the flower vines wrapped around the four pillars were just carvings, he didn’t expect them to be real.

“It’s a kind of poisonous ivy named Pink Abyss. Like Wisteria Vine, it likes to eat people and demon beasts. If there were no carnivore flowers here, how would there be no dead bodies in the corridor?” Liu Mufeng asked his wife with a smile.

“I, I thought there was a special room for corpses here too.” Jiang Xu frowned, but he didn’t expect it to be so.

“There’s no mechanism here, so where would you get the room for disposing of corpses?” Liu Mufeng replied.

“So that’s how it is.” So, the people who were poisoned to death in the corridor were all eaten by this flower vine. Thinking of this, Jiang Xu felt a little creeped out.

Watching the two entangled vines fighting fiercely, Liu Mufeng’s eyes narrowed and he directly released the Fire Spirit Insects to burn the roots of the flower vines hidden under the pillar. These flower vines were afraid of fire, so it was most appropriate to let the Fire Spirit Insects take action.

With the help of the Fire Spirit Insects, the Wisteria Vine quickly defeated the flower vines and swallowed its demon bead in one gulp. After swallowing the bead, the Wisteria Vine hiccupped and returned to Liu Mufeng’s wrist.

“Hehe, Wisteria Vine seems to be full.” Looking at the purple vine on his lover’s wrist, Jiang Xu said with a smile.

“En,let it digest the demon bead. After digestion, it will have no problem in advancing to the three-stars in the Spiritual Emperor Realm.” Speaking of this, Liu Mufeng laughed. This could be regarded as an opportunity for the Wisteria Vine

As soon as the flower vine died, the originally magnificent looking Palace with carved beams and painted pillars suddenly turned into a decayed, filthy, mass grave full of skulls and torn clothes.

“How? This, this is?”

“En, I think it should be. Let the puppet and the Golden Spirit Insects go in to have a look. They can also put away the things they will find in the rooms so there will be no need for us to go in.” Liu Mufeng said. He didn’t want his wife to take risks in this place.

“Okay, that’s good. Anyway, they are not afraid of poisons.” Jiang Xu also thought it was more appropriate for them to go, as puppets and Spirit Insects were not afraid of poison.

The poison refining room of the Second Elder was the room on the west side. Due to the age, many poisons and pills had turned into powder and were already useless. Only three jade slips and a few beast skins were collected by Liu Mufeng. They were Poison inheritances which was very useful to Liu Mufeng.

The Second Elder’s cultivation room was on the east side. In this room, there was a large bed carved from a single piece of jade, a dressing table, a wardrobe, all kinds of beautiful and gorgeous clothes, jewelry, rouge and gouache. There was also an inconspicuous small potted plant placed on the dressing table.

Liu Mufeng was not interested in the other things, but what he wanted was this little potted plant.

“Mufeng, what kind of plant is this? It looks so vibrant.” Looking at the potted plant in his lover’s hand, Jiang Xu asked with a smile.

“This is named Celestial Spirit Wood, and along with the Fire Cloud Wood, it is one of the five sacred trees of ancient times. To me, this thing is as useful as Fire Cloud Wood is to Fire Spirit Insects and Beast Fires.” Liu Mufeng explained.

Hearing this, Jiang Xu blinked, and then he was overjoyed. “You mean this little potted plant? No, no, wait, you can also absorb this Celestial Spirit Wood every once in a while, just like the Fire Spirit Insects often absorb the flames of Fire Cloud Wood?”

“That’s right, this thing is very useful to me, and it’s also very useful to Wood Spirit Insects.” Before advancing to the Spiritual Profound Realm, Liu Mufeng couldn’t give up the Celestial Spirit Wood to Wood Spirit Insects for the time being. He would talk about it after he advanced.

“Mufeng, why don’t you go into seclusion as well. You are currently eight-stars in the Spiritual Emperor Realm. If you go into seclusion for ten years, you should be able to advance to nine-stars. Anyway, we have seen everything here, and there is no danger. There is no one else, so you don’t have to worry about me, just go into seclusion.” Jiang Xu said as he looked at his lover with a smile.

“Okay, I’ll go into seclusion for a while, and improve my strength.” Liu Mufeng had been an eight-stars in the Spiritual Emperor Realm for so many years. There was already a faint tendency for him to advance, and it was most appropriate to go into seclusion at this moment.

“Okay.” Nodding, Jiang Xu took the bracelet and put it on his hand.

Lowering his head, Liu Mufeng kissed his beloved’s forehead, and then directly entered the bracelet dimension for seclusion.

One year later……

Seeing his lover leave seclusion, Jiang Xu was very happy. “Mufeng, you have advanced to the nine stars of the Spiritual Emperor Realm.”

“En, I have, but my strength is not too stable yet.” Speaking of this, Liu Mufeng laughed.

“It’s okay, your strength will be stable in a few years.” Jiang Xu said with a smile.

“Yes” Liu Mufeng nodded and looked around. “Where’s Xiaoyuan? Why don’t I see Xiaoyuan?”

“She’s in the room. She really likes the Second Elder’s room, so she’s living there. Also, Xiaoyuan found the key under the Second Elder’s bed, but she said she didn’t know if it was poisonous, so she didn’t show it to me, and said she’ll give it to you after you’re out of seclusion.” Looking at his man, Jiang Xu explained the situation.

“Oh, I’ll go and have a look.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng took out the gloves and headgear and put them on with Jiang Xu. Then, the two went to the Second Elder’s room.

“Master, you’re out of seclusion.” Seeing Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu walking in, Xiaoyuan happily greeted them.

“You have transformed?” Looking at the beautiful woman with bright eyes and bright smile, Liu Mufeng couldn’t help being stunned.

“That’s right, after you went into seclusion, Master, I came to this room every day to look at those beautiful clothes and jewelry, and after looking at them, I could transform myself. Boss Jiang even praised me for being smart.” Xiaoyuan smiled and looked at Jiang Xu as she spoke.

“I didn’t expect that after you went into seclusion, Xiaoyuan would be able to transform in less than a month.” Jiang Xu was also very happy when he said this.

“En, this is a good thing. Where’s the key? Show me.” Liu Mufeng asked Xiaoyuan.

“Here, Master.” With that said, Xiaoyuan took out the key from her pocket and handed it to Liu Mufeng.

After receiving it, Liu Mufeng checked it, and wiped it again with spiritual plant leaves. After making sure there was no poison, it was put together with the first key they had gotten from the Great Elder’s Palace.

Looking at Xiaoyuan again, Liu Mufeng nodded in satisfaction. He took out a bottle of medicinal elixir and handed it to Xiaoyuan. “This is my newly refined elixir, it will help you improve your strength, take it.”

“En, thank you Master.” Thanking him with a smile, Xiaoyuan immediately took the bottle.

“Did you feel any discomfort after shape-shifting into a human form? Did you feel any pain in your body? Stretch out your hand, and I’ll check your pulse.” As he spoke, Liu Mufeng pulled Xiaoyuan’s wrist to feel her pulse.

“I didn’t feel uncomfortable at all, but I felt a little pain when I transformed for the first time. Later, I got used to it, and now I can naturally switch between human form and beast form. Moreover, I also studied with Boss Jiang. I learned swordsmanship.” Xiaoyuan was very happy as she excitedly reported her status.

“Yes, Xiaoyuan is very smart. She has learned all the sword skills I taught her. It won’t be a disadvantage if her human form goes out to fight with people.” Jiang Xu was very happy when he saw Xiaoyuan had transformed into a human form, so he taught her sword skills. He didn’t expect Xiaoyuan to learn very quickly, she learned all the sword skills he taught in a year.

“Really? That’s amazing.” Liu Mufeng was also very happy and proud of his beast pet.

“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Xiaoyuan was a little embarrassed after receiving her Master’s compliment.

“Okay, if there is no problem. Later, I will refine some solid pills for you.” Liu Mufeng was relieved after feeling her pulse.

“Thank you, Master.” Xiaoyuan immediately thanked him.

“If you like these women’s clothes, jewelry, and furniture, you can put them away yourself.” Looking at the things in the room, Liu Mufeng said with a smile.

“Yes, thank you, Master. Boss Jiang gave me a storage necklace, which has a very large space. And these, these are also storage magic weapons.” As she spoke, Xiaoyuan pointed to her hairpin and earrings.

Liu Mufeng smiled. “Okay, as long as you like it.” Looking at Xiaoyuan again, Liu Mufeng turned his head to look at his wife. “XiaoXu, is it almost time?”

“En, there’s still one day left. Did you count the exact time to get out?” Looking at his man, Jiang Xu said with a smile.

“No, I just felt that it was almost time to leave seclusion.”

“Oh.” Nodding, Jiang Xu expressed his understanding.

“The Crystal Palace was the territory of the Third Elder, and the Third Elder was a very outstanding puppeteer of the Tianyan Clan. He was a cultivator at the Spiritual Profound Realm, and his soul power may be stronger than mine. Therefore, it may be difficult to break into the Crystal Palace.” Thinking of the Crystal Palace , Liu Mufeng frowned deeply.

“Let’s do our best.” In fact, thirty-five years of sea life had greatly improved the strength of the Water Spirit Insects, and Jiang Xu didn’t have much attachment to the Crystal Palace.

“Okay, let’s do our best.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng also felt that it would be a pity not to go to the Crystal Palace after coming to the Mechanism Island.
