Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples-Chapter 386 - 209: Escaping Death, Master’s Reward
"Taoist Friend Chen, what are you doing?"
Seeing Chen Ye walk out of the crowd voluntarily, Bu Feifan was shocked and reached out to pull him back,
"I know your spirit plant skills are extraordinary, but this is a demon plant from a thousand years ago! Besides... we just need to wait for it to eat its fill."
"Spirit Plant Cultivator??"
Everyone’s gaze instantly focused on Chen Ye.
Though the sinful cultivators knew Chen Ye was a steward, they didn’t know he was a Spirit Plant Steward.
And the caliber of a sect steward is not to be underestimated.
In an instant, the fire of hope that had been extinguished reignited fiercely in everyone’s hearts!
"Steward Chen! We beg you to save our lives!"
"Lord Chen! We are willing to serve you loyally!"
The sinful cultivators who recently harbored ill intentions on the spiritual ship, faced with life and death, couldn’t care about their dignity and kept pleading.
As for whether Chen Ye might face unexpected danger in the process, it was beyond their consideration.
Chen Ye couldn’t care less about these sinful cultivators.
He wasn’t acting to save them, just wanted to escape quickly.
Given the current situation,
Wei Shu and the others seemed to be waiting for them to feed the spirit plant before entering the grotto heaven.
And this period was his crucial survival time!
He turned back and secretly transmitted:
"Taoist Friend Bu, Blood Reeds have no consciousness and target areas rich in vital energy. You must quickly distance yourself from the crowd; it seems dangerous, but it’s the safest plan!"
Bu Feifan was stunned, his face hesitant.
At this moment, blood reeds swayed incessantly, the marsh churned, countless roots were feeding on cultivators... no matter how you looked at it, the crowd seemed safe. If you ended up alone, wouldn’t it be seeking your own doom?
But though cowardly, he knew Chen Ye’s insights far exceeded his own and he had no reason to harm him.
Thinking this, he gritted his teeth and decisively left the crowd.
Seeing the two voluntarily walk out,
The remaining sinful cultivators all breathed a sigh of relief, looking at their backs with a schadenfreude smile.
If healed, it would be a joy for everyone.
If not, it would be just right to let the two feed those blood reeds first!
Yet Iron Tiger panicked; others didn’t know, but he was very clear.
This Chen kid had unpredictable skills; even allowing the blood reeds to devour cultivators, he could still survive till the end!
Moreover, he was protecting his treasured apprentice; how could he be someone who easily seeks death?
There must be some trick here!
Understanding this, Iron Tiger no longer hesitated and quietly retreated to the back of the crowd amid the sinful cultivators’ schadenfreude discussions.
Chen Ye was unconcerned with other matters.
His pupils glimmered with spiritual light, urging the Limit Break-level Disease Removal Saber.
In an instant, the frenzied blood reeds transformed in his vision into countless unordered spiritual qi veins.
"That’s it... The grotto heaven just opened, spiritual qi is agitated, coupled with the sudden appearance of a batch of cultivators, has excited these blood reeds..."
Chen Ye pondered silently.
To manage the boundless wailing marsh completely would be a pipe dream.
But he only needed to soothe the frightened blood reeds here, and afterwards use Qi Concealment Technique to escape.
Considering,
Upon the grotto heaven’s opening, it inevitably startled the blood reeds.
Wei Shu and the sect cultivators intended to feed the frightened blood reeds with sinful cultivators.
Afterwards, they would conceal qi to avoid alarming the blood reeds.
"These blood reeds...must be the jade reeds from the outside world who originally fed on spiritual qi. Likely due to being disconnected from the outside world, spiritual power was scarce, and gradually evolved to now feed on blood and flesh."
Chen Ye murmured, his mind resolved.
"Ganlin Nourishing Technique!"
Dots like morning dew radiating gentle white light’s pure vitality power condensed at his fingertips!
He flicked his fingers, and those dozens of drops filled with powerful vitality fell onto the most turbulent clump of reeds ahead!
The originally frenzied blood reeds visibly paused the moment they touched this vitality dew.
Like curious children, cautiously extending their leaves to touch the dew.
Trickles of pure dew seeped into leaf veins, the blood reeds unfurled, immensely satisfying.
Devouring flesh, how could it compare to this vitality dew’s delight?
"Chen...Taoist Friend Chen, what’s going on?"
Bu Feifan was dumbfounded; he had just tried to nourish these blood reeds with Spirit Plant Technique.
Yet the blood reeds were utterly disdainful of his spirit rain.
But now, they were competing for Chen Ye’s dew as if it was supreme divine medicine!
Chen Ye didn’t explain, making an excuse: "Maybe...it’s due to Ganlin Nourishing Technique? This method is from Lingyin Sect’s spirit plant magic, different from common methods..."
Ever since his Evergreen Technique broke limits and transcended, his spiritual power increasingly contained vitality, combined with Ganlin Nourishing Technique long since breaking limits.
With numerous factors compounded, the dew he condensed was like addictive drug to spirit plants!
While things were calm on their side, an abrupt mutation occurred where the group of sinful cultivators were!
The blood reeds in that area, upon sensing Chen Ye’s pure vitality power, plunged into complete upheaval.
"Ah—!"
"Help!"
The marsh bubbled ferociously like boiling water, hundreds of thousands of blood-colored roots burst from the earth, stabbing towards the crowd!
In just one encounter, several cultivators were pierced alive.
Someone, seeing Chen Ye’s side calm, snapped awake, angrily shouted:
"Damn it! That bastard must’ve deliberately used an evil technique to attract blood reeds to us so he can escape! Bastard, I trusted him so much!"
Chen Ye smiled slightly: "Barely guessed right."
The person froze, his face somewhat panicked.
He was merely slandering casually, never expecting it was actually this person’s doing...
