122 When you die, I will go to your grave and tell you the truth
One night passed, and the morning light shone on the earth, dispelling the darkness of the night.
Some people recharged their batteries throughout the night, while others stayed awake all night. Just after the exam, some people couldn't hold on any longer.
In addition to overcoming the original natural environment here, you also need to avoid the traps set up by the academy in advance.
There are dangers everywhere, and the rules on the surface are already overwhelming, let alone other contents.
Various situations may occur when capturing spiritual beasts, and many people have been injured throughout the night.
But this time the monthly exam is different from the trial at the beginning of the school year. If you regret it during the trial at the beginning of the school year, you can withdraw, and someone from the Spiritual Suspension Department will take you out.
But this time, there is no such thing as going back on your word midway. No matter what your group has gone through, you must keep going until the moment the bell rings for the end of the exam.
Mu Qian and Luo Zhi walked from the first light of morning to the scorching sun. Panting, they found a big tree and sat down to enjoy the shade.
"I'm almost exhausted." Luo Zhi gasped and spoke.
Sweat kept falling on her forehead. They had been walking all morning and she was already hungry.
"I'm going to fetch a rabbit, and you can light the fire for me." Mu Qian ordered.
When you come to this mountain, you don't have to worry about having nothing to eat. Wild fruits and wild animals are the most abundant here, so you won't starve.
"Then you come back quickly. I'll go to the river to see if there are any fish." Luo Zhi nodded in agreement.
The two of them worked separately and moved very quickly. In addition to successfully bringing back the hare, Mu Qian also picked some wild fruits. When they returned the same way, Luo Zhi had already put the fish on the fire.
Mu Qian squatted down, looked at the fish that was a bit miserable, and spoke with some uncertainty.
"How did this fish die?"
The body seemed to have been exploded, the flesh of the fish was blurred, and the flesh and blood were flying. It could not have been caught by fishing, nor could it have been caught with a harpoon.
"I made a harpoon, but the fish in this river are simply too difficult to catch. What's more important is that when they saw that I couldn't catch them, they actually lined up and swam past me! How could I possibly suffer?
You deserve such a provocation!"
"So, what did you do?" Mu Qian blinked.
"I just used the thunder spell you taught me." Luo Zhi said with a proud look on his face.
Mu Qian held her forehead. This was the first time she encountered someone using thunder spells to fry fish.
This spell was taught to her by her senior brother. It can turn spiritual energy into lightning, which makes her invincible in battle.
I taught Luo Zhi thinking that her spiritual energy was not weak, but I didn't expect that it was overkill.
"You can just use it to fry fish, but this fish was cursed by thunder and didn't break into pieces, tsk tsk..."
Mu Qian didn't say the next words.
It's really delicious.
Luo Zhi also understood what Mu Qian wanted to say. He lowered his head and turned over the fish very seriously, "I know that I am really incompetent. I have such a good teacher like you to teach me, but I am not strong enough. No matter how powerful the spell is,
It won’t play a big role here.”
Her thunder spell can't even kill fish.
"Practice slowly." Mu Qian only consoled her.
She carried the rabbit and walked to the river to handle it. After cleaning it, she returned to the fire and handed the cleaned rabbit over.
"You eat the fish first, and I'll roast the rabbit." Luo Zhi handed the fish over.
I have to say that Luo Zhi has done a good job in eating. Although the fish was fried beyond recognition, it still looked delicious and delicious when grilled.
But as soon as she put it to her mouth, Mu Qian smelled it. She stopped moving and leaned her nose over to smell it carefully.
"Don't eat it yet." Mu Qian snatched the fish from Luo Zhi's left hand.
Seeing her expression, Luo Zhi knew there must be something wrong with the fish.
"What's wrong?"
Mu Qian threw the fish directly to the ground, "Who else has touched this fish besides you?"
"I caught it with my own hands." She reacted and added, "It exploded."
During this time no one but her touched the fish.
"Poisonous?" Luo Zhi asked doubtfully.
Mu Qian shook her head and looked at the creek not far behind them.
If it wasn't deliberately administered by humans, it would have been in the water.
She got up and walked to the creek, reached out and took a handful of water and smelled it.
"The water was drugged," Mu Qian concluded.
Luo Zhi was so frightened that she stuttered, "What...what medicine was given?"
"Did you drink this water just now?" Mu Qian looked at her.
Luo Zhi tried hard to recall the whole process of frying fish just now, and then said categorically, "No."
They still had water in their clothes last night. She wasn't thirsty at first, and she hadn't even touched the tail of the fish after catching the fish for a long time. She was so angry that she didn't even have time to drink water. She just thought about how to get the fish out.
"Then what is this medicine? Will you die if you drink it?" Luo Zhi was still a little worried.
"It won't kill you, but it will definitely have other effects." Mu Qian said, filling a bottle of water and leaving it behind.
If her sense of smell was correct, the water should have been filled with a medicine made mainly from Achnatherum splendens. Achnatherum splendens can damage the spiritual power of spiritual cultivators, but it is not a good medicine anyway.
"Who gave this medicine?" Luo Zhi said angrily.
It is simply disgusting to use such tactics behind the scenes.
"The water is flowing, and we are in the downstream zone. If it were to target everyone, the medicine would be administered upstream."
Luo Zhi looked back at the rabbit that was still roasting, "Can the rabbit still be eaten?"
Washed in water.
"Let's eat something else. We have to go upstream to have a look." Mu Qian put away the water bottle.
If something goes wrong with the water, it will affect a wide range of people. There are many streams in the psychedelic forest, but most of them have the same source.
This creek has been drugged, and others may not be spared either.
This medicine is not fatal. It uses Achnatherum splendens as the main medicine, and other medicines as supplements will definitely damage the spiritual person's cultivation.
Moreover, this medicine will not take effect immediately after taking it, it will take time.
If you are someone who draws water from the stream, you can probably predict the consequences of just replenishing water throughout the day, not to mention when the medicine will take effect.
First there were evil spirits, and now there's something wrong with the water. The components of this exam are getting more and more complex.
"The water we got last night is fine. It should be able to last until the end of the exam tonight." Luo Zhi followed Mu Qian and followed the water upward.
They must speed up their pace now. The communication talisman sent by Nan Mu just now said that they have achieved a lot along the way, and they must work harder now.
There is really no way to take care of anything else.
"I can't control the ingredients of this medicine. If it only damages your cultivation level, that's it. What I'm most afraid of is that it will harm people's lives. To be on the safe side, we have to go to the source and see." Mu Qian said without looking back.
"But didn't you say that it's none of your business and just hang on to it?"
Luo Zhi actually still doesn't quite understand Mu Qian's thoughts. She has never been a nosy person.
"This is not a matter of personal concern."
The original direction of this exam was under her control. If other uncontrollable factors arise, she must eliminate them.
Otherwise, all the people who will die due to this will probably have something to do with her.
She had to confirm whether the medicine was given by Guo Chao's group.
The two of them walked up the water, and the stream became wider and wider. However, they did not see any animals or spiritual beasts drinking water along the way.
It is enough to show that there is indeed a problem in this water flow.
"Qianqian, there's someone in front of me!" Luo Zhi suddenly shouted.
Mu Qian, who was thinking about something, was startled. When he looked up, he saw a person prostrate by the water.
"etc!"
Luo Zhi moved faster than her, and before Mu Qian had time to dissuade her, she saw Luo Zhi wading through the water and rushing over.
She ran to the fainted person, and just as her hand touched the person's arm, she went straight through it.
"Huh?"
Before she could make a sound in surprise, a cage fell from the sky and trapped the person inside.
Mu Qian sighed and rubbed his temples. Taking advantage of people's sympathy is really the most common method.
"I'll go, you dare to plot against me!!" Luo Zhi shouted, holding two iron pillars in his hands.
The people who were still crawling around now sat up, looking proudly at Luo Zhi who was trapped in the trap.
"Who made you stupid?" Song Xiangli clapped his hands and looked at her triumphantly, "I didn't expect that the person caught would be you, Luo Zhi."
They have successfully used this method twice, and both have gained a lot.
"Song Xiangli, you are really despicable!" Luo Zhi shook the iron fence hard.
Listening to her insults, Song Xiangli raised his hand to make a gesture, and Luo Zhi in the cage felt as if a needle had pricked his palm.
"ah!"
Mu Qian looked at the cage that had been cursed with lightning, and was speechless for a moment.
"Bring out your souls and I will release Luo Zhi." Song Xiangli stared at Mu Qian proudly.
The second time she tried the same method, she really wanted to laugh.
"Why don't we fight head-on, and if you beat me, I'll give you both hands." Mu Qian raised her eyebrows.
After hearing this, Song Xiangli smiled and looked back at Luo Zhi, mockingly saying, "You've been wagging your tail behind her like a dog all day, and now that you've been caught, she doesn't care about your life or death."
Luo Zhi stared at her angrily, "I don't believe you really dare to kill me."
Song Xiangli cast a spell in his hand, and the whole cage was instantly filled with electricity. "What do you think?"
In Yinjue Academy, students are responsible for their own lives and deaths. This is a rule known to all families.
In the eyes of many aristocratic families, if a child cannot return from Yinjue Yuan alive, he or she will be just a waste who will not be able to gain a foothold in the spiritual world in the future.
And their family doesn't need waste, so even if they really die here, their children are not strong enough and can't blame anyone.
"Actually, I didn't come for you. Who made you bump into me?" Song Xiangli changed the topic and looked at Mu Qian, with a sinister and arrogant tone, "I suddenly regretted it, I don't want the spirit beast, I want yours."
life."
Hearing this made Luo Zhi in the cage laugh, "I think it's better if you want a spiritual beast."
Deadly?
I still don’t know whose life I want.
"Is there any dispute between us?" Mu Qian raised an eyebrow and looked at her.
"Is there a festival?" Song Xiangli laughed out loud as if he heard something funny, "You will never know, I will tell you in front of your grave."
Luo Zhi hurriedly interrupted her, "You don't follow the rules. Normally you would make your grudges clear before taking action!"
What do you mean by going to the tomb and telling ghosts?
"Are you afraid?" Mu Qian looked at Song Xiangli and said bluntly, "You are afraid that you can't defeat me, so you won't tell me the truth."
This person still leaves some room for himself.
"I'm going to show you today, who is more powerful between you and me!" Song Xiangli said, raising his hand and biting his finger.
The blood surging from her fingertips fell to the ground, and she quickly formed a formation.
At the same time, darkness suddenly fell above them, and dark clouds floating in the distance quickly gathered, threatening to overwhelm the city.
"What kind of magic is this!" Luo Zhi stared at the dark clouds above his head and was startled.
When did Song Xiangli become so powerful? Is this cheating?
"Red Refining Formation." Mu Qian looked at the person with red eyes in the formation.
It's true that Song Xiangli would not challenge her if he didn't have two brushes.
The Red Refining Formation is an advanced formation that uses blood as a guide. In the formation, the caster can gain several times more power than before.
This is a forbidden technique, and if the spirit user himself is not strong in spiritual power, he cannot activate it.
"Have you got any advice from an expert?" Mu Qian narrowed her eyes.
Song Xiangli was a third-level spiritual person after being pushed to death. With her spiritual power, it was impossible to activate the Red Refining Formation. To increase her spiritual power to such a high level in a short period of time, she must have used some unconventional means.
Song Xiangli only looked at her with a sneer, and then smacked her.
"Mu Qian, be careful!!" Luo Zhi shouted.
Song Xiangli's spiritual energy turned red, and the gas it carried even cut the face of the person standing nearby.
People in the same group as Song Xiangli were frightened by this scene and took a step back.
"This is different from what was promised!"
They agreed to wait here and wait for other groups to come, take hostages and threaten them, and then snatch their spiritual beasts.
There was no mention of killing anyone in the plan, and the person he faced was Yun Muqian.
"An Hui, go up and try to persuade her." A person on the side pushed the girl forward, "Don't you have a very good relationship with Song Xiangli?"
Don't watch her get into big trouble.
"I...I don't dare." An Hui was also frightened by this situation and did not dare to speak.
"You can't watch her kill us all!!"
When Song Xiangli and Yun Muqian competed, they couldn't guarantee that they would win, and besides, there was no family here that was more powerful than the Yun family.
Mu Qian raised her hand and used the formation to block the sharp blade that flew out of Song Xiangli's hand. The sharp blade made of spiritual energy was extremely sharp and was about to pierce her spiritual energy shield.
Seeing this, Song Xiangli increased his strength, and there were cracks on the orange aura mask.
"Just go ahead and capture me. I will let you choose a neat way to die and I won't torture you."
When she said this, Song Xiangli's black hair was flying behind her, matching her fierce expression.
He really looks like a possessed person.
"Don't think about it." Mu Qian said and clapped it with her left hand.
With full force, Song Xiangli was beaten back several steps, holding his chest and almost vomiting blood.
It's impossible. She clearly said that even Fu Chenling wouldn't be able to parry this formation once it was unleashed.
Why can Mu Qian accept it so easily?
"You should think carefully about how to explain to me who taught you this formation." Mu Qian raised her hand as she spoke.
The restraint chains wrapped around Song Xiangli's body, shackling him tightly.
