The whole sect is full of villains, but the junior sister has a hole in her brain

In the secret realm, Xu Qingxuan has tried more than ten ways to uproot the ground-bound roots, but all ended in failure.

Chao Zhao felt a little tired by the end.

It turns out that these more than 100,000 spirit stones are not so easy to earn.

"...Otherwise, give up."

This swamp obviously has other precious medicinal herbs. The ground-binding roots are too difficult to deal with. In order not to alarm the monsters in the swamp, they have been very careful.

"No."

Xu Qingxuan shook her head solemnly, showing no sign of backing down.

Chao Zhao was stunned for a moment, then realized belatedly: "... Is this Earth Binding Root important to you?"

"Ok!"

Xu Qingxuan nodded, "The value of the Earth Binding Root does not lie in the number of spirit stones, but in how hard it is to find... Master has been ill for many years, and he really needs it."

After she explained it, Chao Zhao understood.

The powerful people who survived the war between the two races all had more or less old wounds on their bodies, and Fuhua was no exception.

"Then let's continue."

Chao Zhao sighed, "I don't know what the Earthbound Root likes."

Their strategy was to use the smell that the ground-bound root liked to wake it up and take it down while it was addicted.

"...Try this."

As soon as Xu Qingxuan finished speaking, she took out the thing in her hand, and Chao Zhao immediately smelled an extremely fishy odor.

Zhao Zhao pinched his nose and stepped back: "What is this?!"

It stinks!

It was like the smell of stinky socks that hadn't been washed for hundreds of years mixed with moldy dead fish. The smell went straight to the top of his head and woke Chao Zhao up all of a sudden.

The already fishy smell seemed to be particularly in harmony with the miasma in the air. Once it blended with the miasma, it felt like being in a fishy, ​​enclosed space.

Xu Qingxuan also covered her nose.

"This is disgusting grass. What if the Earthbound Root likes this?"

"........."

Chao Zhao was silent for a moment. It was indeed disgusting.

She moved her gaze to behind Xu Qingxuan, and the corners of her mouth twitched, "I don't know whether it likes it or not, but it is definitely irritated."

The earth-bound roots do not have thoughts, but only have some plant instincts.

For example, at this moment, the invasion of the smell of disgusting grass made it feel that its territory was occupied, so it became particularly anxious.

More and more hyphae entangled in the roots emerged from the ground.

The hyphae gradually extended out, looking for the smell that attempted to invade its territory.

......The only thing to be thankful for was that the smell of disgusting grass covered the entire area and also concealed the scent of Chao Zhao and Xu Qingxuan.

Therefore, the ground-bound root is now like a blind man, and can only wave its hyphae around aimlessly in the air.

Xu Qingxuan sighed in disappointment: "It seems to be useless."

"...Put away the disgusting grass first."

Chao Zhao felt that he was not corroded by the miasma, but was instead made to faint by the disgusting grass.

The disgusting grass was finally put away by Xu Qingxuan.

The smell still lingered in the air, but fortunately it was not as strong as before. The mycelium, having lost its target, was suspended in mid-air in a daze.

Chao Zhao thought for a moment and asked, "Just let it be enchanted, right?"

"......right."

Xu Qingxuan was rummaging around in her Qiankun bag and took the time to respond to Chao Zhao.

When she came to her senses, she saw Chao Zhao holding a jar and taking a small cautious step forward.

The jar was overturned, and clear liquid flowed out and dripped onto the mycelium. Xu Qingxuan smelled a strong aroma of wine.

"......liquor?"

She was stunned and was about to say that plants would not react to human wine, but she was slapped in the face the next moment.

The mycelium that had tasted the wine gradually meandered to the ground, curled up its body lazily, as if immersed in the wine.

"?!"

A hint of confusion appeared on Xu Qingxuan's usually serious and steady face.

Seeing that it worked, Chao Zhao poured the wine along the hyphae bit by bit. Before long, the hyphae of the ground-bound roots were eroded by the wine, and the ground-bound roots, which were originally angry, became slightly drunk.

When Chao Zhao came back after walking around, Difu Gen was completely drunk.

Even Chao Zhao didn't react when he was swaying back and forth in front of her.

"solved!"

She clapped her hands and turned to look at Xu Qingxuan.

Xu Qingxuan was still stunned, seeming to find it incredible: "Earthbound root, drunk?"

"Yes."

Nodding at Zhao, she spread her hands out, "Isn't it obvious?"

Xu Qingxuan was silent.

Plants indeed have no reaction to human wine, there is no mistake about that, but why... The scene before him hit the knowledge Xu Qingxuan had accumulated over the years.

But compared to this, it is obviously more important to quickly remove the Earth Binding Root.

So Xu Qingxuan stopped hesitating and walked forward quickly.

Chao Zhao gave up her seat at the right time. She didn't know how to deal with such troublesome things.

The idea of ​​making the Earthbound Root drunk was something Chao Zhao suddenly thought of. After all, the wine left by her mother could even make her master, who was in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, drunk. Maybe the Earthbound Root could do the same?

After some testing, it really lived up to my expectations.

Her mother is so awesome!

It takes an extremely long time to uproot the earth-bound roots. Xu Qingxuan needs to concentrate fully and use her spiritual power to go deep into the ground, wrap around every hyphae of the earth-bound roots, and then pull them up.

The earthbound fungus was deeply rooted in the ground, and it was unknown how much mycelium there was underground, so Chao Zhao did not disturb her and quietly walked aside.

The stench brought by the disgusting grass gradually dissipated as time passed, and what came with it was Xu Qingxuan's purple face that looked more and more like she was poisoned.

Chao Zhao knew that the miasma was taking advantage of Xu Qingxuan's mobilization of her whole body's spiritual power while she was mobilizing her whole body's spiritual power, trying to destroy her body's defense mechanism.

Chao Zhao: "Don't test your physical limits at this time. It's more important to get the Earth Binding Root."

Xu Qingxuan nodded, took out the anti-miasma pill from her Qiankun bag and swallowed it.

Zhao Zhao was just trying to find a place to wait for her, but his body's mechanism for dealing with danger was suddenly triggered -

With a clang, the Jingshuang Sword was unsheathed and was held by Chao Zhao, blocking behind Xu Qingxuan to resist the snake that suddenly jumped out of the pond.

The snake's body was not strong, but its head was wide and it had fan-shaped dark purple fin-like things on both sides of its cheeks.

The Jingshuang Sword blocked its sneak attack. It cruised at the edge of the pond, hissing and staring at Chao Zhao with a fierce look.

"Deep Viper."

Chao Zhao swung the Frost Sword and said to Xu Qingxuan without turning his head, "Go on, don't worry about me."

This deep viper had obviously been lying in ambush in the swamp for a long time, waiting for both them and the ground-binding root to suffer heavy losses. It probably didn't expect that they could take down the ground-binding root without any damage, so it was afraid that the prey would slip away, so it couldn't wait to come out and attack.

The miasma and swamp concealed its scent, and deep vipers were always good at stealth and sneak attacks, so it was no wonder that they hadn't noticed it.

Xu Qingxuan: "Okay, be careful."

The long sword in Chao Zhao's hand flipped, and the sword light with the solemn breath of frost and snow flashed coldly in the foggy swamp.

‘Poof! ’

The sword light sank into the swamp, stirring up tiny waves.

In order to avoid disturbing Xu Qingxuan, Chao Zhao was very careful in his moves, which gave the Deep Viper a chance to hide in the swamp.

Chao Zhao stopped slowly.

"It's a good time to try out Third Brother's poison."
