Chapter 283 Yinminghua

"Pfft!"

Facing the approaching ghost, Qiao Qianqian grabbed a handful of green powder from her storage bag, stopped and sprinkled it behind her.

After the ghosts touched the powder, they immediately let out miserable screams and their bodies burned.

"The strength of these ghosts is not weak. I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Qiao could kill them with one blow. They are really powerful!"

Xu Mu turned around, looked at the burning ghost and praised.

"Fellow Taoist, I'm sorry, they're just some ghosts in the Qi training period!" Qiao Qianqian said with a smile.

The level of these ghosts was too low to even be worth collecting breath. After dealing with them, the two of them continued to move forward without stopping.

From time to time on the road, they would meet some ghosts emerging from the ground, but their levels were not high, until the two of them appeared in front of a sea of ​​flowers with black branches and leaves and white flowers.

"This is the Yin Ming Flower. It can be used to refine Yin Qi pills and assist in the practice of Yin attribute skills. Although it is only the first level, it is rarely seen in the outside world. I didn't expect there to be so many here!"

There was a hint of danger in the corner of Qiao Qianqian's mouth, and she wanted to go forward and collect some for study later.

At this moment, several pale ghosts emerged from the sea of ​​flowers and rushed towards the two of them with distorted faces.

Facing these pale ghosts, the two of them not only felt no fear, but also showed a hint of joy.

"After walking so far, I finally met a few ghosts in the foundation building stage!"

Qiao Qianqian kneaded the magic formula with her hands, and several vines suddenly protruded from her sleeves, and then huge red flowers bloomed from the tips of the vines.

Facing the white ghosts that rushed towards them, the flowers swallowed them all like a big mouth, followed by screams one after another.

After the screams subsided, Hua Hua returned to Qiao Qianqian, exhaled a few wisps of breath, and Qiao Qianqian took out the jade bottle magic weapon and put it in it.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, do you want to share some of your strands?"

"No!"

Xu Mu smiled and shook his head.

There is no point in dividing the ghosts among the foundation-building stage, and besides, not all of them will be given to Li Youlan in the end.

After Qiao Qianqian picked some Yinming flowers, the two of them walked forward for a while and killed more than a dozen ghosts in the foundation-building stage.

Qiao Qianqian was basically the one doing it. It wasn't until he met a corpse puppet with a broken arm that Xu Mu showed interest.

He squeezed the magic formula with his hand and shot out a golden light that fell on the corpse puppet. It was comparable to the corpse puppet in the middle stage of foundation building. It immediately stopped in place and remained motionless.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, could it be that you used the body-holding technique?" Qiao Qianqian asked in surprise.

"Yeah! I just learned it at last, so let's practice with it."

Xu Mu stepped forward, inspected the corpse and said again.

"I didn't expect you to know this kind of secret magic. This little girl really admires you!" Qiao Qianqian said.

"A side door? Is there one?" Xu Mu looked back and asked puzzledly.

He only knew that the Holding Technique was less powerful than ordinary ninth-level spells, but he didn't know how unsophisticated it was.

"This kind of spell is highly practiced and its power is really limited. Anyway, I have lived for so many years and I have seen the holding talisman several times, but this is the first time I have seen the holding technique!" Qiao Qianqian said.

"I don't think it's that difficult. Maybe I'm more suited to this spell!"

Qiao Qianqian didn't know that he had just obtained this spell, otherwise he would be even more surprised.

"Congratulations to fellow Taoist, this spell is quite useful if you practice it to a very deep level!"

"I feel so too!"

The two of them didn't talk too much about the body-holding technique. Qiao Qianqian stepped forward to check on the corpse puppet's condition.

"The yin energy on this corpse puppet seems a bit heavy!" Qiao Qianqian frowned slightly.

"This is a corpse puppet made by humans, maybe mixed with some corpse refining techniques!"

Xu Mu poured spiritual power into it and could feel the many puppet runes incorporated into it, as well as the sinister aura permeating everywhere.

"It's just a little weird!"

Xu Mu also frowned.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Qianqian asked in confusion.

"The fusion level of these evil spirits and corpse puppets is extremely high, and it is not like they can be produced by simple corpse refining methods!"

Xu Mu himself has also practiced Xuanyin Corpse Refining Technique. Although his level is not high, he can still see some clues.

"That Seventh Prince is a master at the Nascent Soul stage. It's not a big deal to invent one or two new corpse refining techniques to coordinate with the corpse puppet! Let's get rid of it quickly!"

Qiao Qianqian wasn't too concerned about the abnormality of the corpse puppet, she just wanted to kill monsters and collect aura.

"makes sense!"

Xu Mu didn't go into details, thinking that everything would be clear when he found the jade slips later.

Xu Mu released a purple thunderbolt from his hand. After killing the corpse puppet, he collected a wisp of aura and walked back with Qiao Qianqian.

"I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Xu to be able to learn thunder-based skills. This little girl never expected it!" Qiao Qianqian said in surprise.

In a place like this, thunder-based techniques are quite advantageous, and they may even have miraculous effects at critical moments.

"I have practiced before, and the power is not too strong!"

The most powerful Tianji Purple Thunder Body he cultivated was at the early stage of the Golden elixir, and it had long been unable to keep up with his progress. The reason why he was using it now was just to save trouble.

Compared with casting other spells, Tianji Purple Thunder Body saves spiritual energy more.

"Fellow Daoist Xu is indeed the person that His Highness likes. He is powerful and has many means. If there is danger when the meeting goes deeper, I hope that fellow Daoist will lend a helping hand. When I go back, I will repay you!"

Qiao Qianqian blinked at him, quite affectionately.

"..."

Xu Mu was speechless.

I feel that this woman has been wandering around for a long time just to say this.

"Don't worry, fellow Taoist, everyone is working for His Highness. When I can help you, I will never stand by and watch!"

"Fellow Daoist Xu, you know this is not the help I want!"

Qiao Qianqian deliberately closed the distance, exuding a very pleasant fragrance, and looked a little anxious.

"Fellow Daoist Qiao, I know what you mean. All I can say is that I will do my best to help!"

Xu Mu distanced himself, obviously not wanting to agree to Qiao Qianqian's request.

He will leave after helping Li Youlan in this trial, so he doesn't want to get too close to Qiao Qianqian.

The maelstrom of the imperial capital is really not suitable for staying too long.

"I have a lot of rare spiritual plants in my hands. Is it true that my fellow Taoist is not interested? And I myself can..." Qiao Qianqian was still a little unwilling and continued to win over.

"I won't be able to bear it until I get older!" Xu Mu refused bluntly.

"What Taoist friend said is really hurtful. Could it be that this little girl is not as good as two maids in the Qi training period, or that Taoist friend has a special hobby?" Qiao Qianqian said with resentful eyes.

She didn't really want to use herself as a bargaining chip, she just wanted to use it as bait, and she wouldn't really let Xu Mu eat it.

After all, only what you can’t get will make people like it more.

"Fellow Taoist, you are joking. Those two maids are just having fun. They can't be serious. It is impossible to compare with fellow Taoist. I just like to have a leisurely time and don't want to get into trouble!"

Xu Mu continued to refuse.

After several contacts, Xu Mu had a vague feeling that Qiao Qianqian was not just a retainer. There might be other identities behind her, otherwise he would not have been so enthusiastic about wooing her.

"Fellow Taoist, can't you play with me!" Qiao Qianqian said reluctantly.

"..."

This made Xu Mu really speechless.

He has made it obvious enough, why is this woman still like this? Does she have to use a beauty trick?

"There seems to be movement ahead, I'll take the first step!"

With that said, Xu Mu turned into a ray of light and flew towards the meeting point.

"This old guy! He really doesn't know how to do anything! Hmph!"

Qiao Qianqian stamped her feet angrily and hurriedly chased after him.
