Chapter 335 Eye of Spiritual Spring
As five brilliant rays of light disappeared in the sky above the Mirage Sea Secret Realm.
Only Saibo, Bai Yaoyao and Chen Yingjie were left outside the Crystal Palace.
Cyber looked at Bai Yaoyao and was about to speak, but when he opened his mouth he burst into a violent cough.
After finally stopping, Cyber's already pale face became even paler.
Bai Yaoyao supported him with some worry, her eyes full of concern.
"Are you okay? Great Elder!"
Cyber waved his hands, "It's okay, my old bones can still hold on..."
Cyber panted twice, then suddenly stretched out his skinny hand and grabbed Bai Yaoyao's arm, the light in his eyes was a little creepy.
"Master Bai, I have asked people to prepare. Shall we go to the Eye of the Spiritual Spring now?"
Bai Yaoyao felt a little pain in her arm from being grabbed by him, so she took her arm off calmly and nodded.
"Okay! Let's go now without further delay!"
I hope the mermaid elder's guess is correct, and the Eye of the Spiritual Spring can really give Qi Meng a new life...
The space below the mermaid tribe’s holy spring.
Bai Yaoyao held a fist-sized Dinghai Pearl that emitted a bright glow, and pulled Chen Yingjie's hand, struggling to avoid a vortex of spiritual energy that was sweeping in from below. After finding a slightly calmer place without a vortex, Bai Yaoyao let go of Chen Yingjie's hand, half-handed on her waist, and panted.
"I can't do it anymore! Let's take a break! How far is the Eye of the Spiritual Spring?"
Chen Yingjie, who was following Bai Yaoyao closely, was careful not to let his body go beyond the range of the Dinghai Pearl. At this moment, his face was flushed and he looked physically exhausted.
"I think it will be soon. Didn't you notice that the spiritual energy here is getting denser as we go deeper? It's almost becoming a solid entity."
Bai Yaoyao sighed, "Let's get there quickly! Otherwise, my strength won't last long!"
Bai Yaoyao really didn't expect that even with the mermaid tribe's secret treasure, the Dinghai Pearl, it would still be so difficult to reach the Eye of the Spirit Spring at the bottom of the Mirage Sea.
Originally, Bai Yaoyao's physical strength had been greatly improved after eating the elf holy fruit, but here it was as if she was carrying a heavy burden, and every step was like wading through a large pool of 502 glue.
The most important thing is that they have to always pay attention to these elusive spiritual energy whirlpools. These small whirlpools may look inconspicuous, but their power is no less than that of a tornado. They once saw with their own eyes a megalodon that mistakenly entered this place and was torn to pieces in an instant after being sucked into the spiritual energy whirlpool.
So even though the two of them had the Dinghai Pearl in their hands, they had to be careful to avoid these whirlpools and dared not touch them at all.
Bai Yaoyao took a deep breath and said, "Let's go! The Great Elder said that it's relatively peaceful if there are no whirlpools three feet away from the Eye of the Spiritual Spring. Let's go all the way to the bottom!"
About two hours later, the two finally saw the source of the spiritual spring.
It was a small pond about one meter in diameter. The water was not deep, only about half a meter, but it was extremely clear. You could see several pebble-sized milky white stones at the bottom of the pond.
Every five seconds, a milky white bubble would rise slowly from the bottom of the pool and go upwards until it "bang" burst open about three meters above the water surface, forming a small whirlpool. Then, as it got farther and farther away from the pool, the whirlpool became larger and larger until it disappeared from sight.
The small pond was surrounded by a thick layer of sea mud. Bai Yaoyao recognized at a glance that this was one of the goals of her trip, the spiritual soil.
As early as when Cyber mentioned that Lan Qimeng might be saved with the help of the Eye of the Spiritual Spring, Bai Yaoyao suggested that if she came here, she wanted to take away the spiritual soil next to the Eye of the Spiritual Spring.
In order to let Bai Yaoyao devote herself to saving his own saint, Cyber readily agreed.
The two stood above the pit and suddenly found that the feeling of being stuck in the mud all the way suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a feeling of lightness all over.
Especially Chen Yingjie, after he arrived here, he felt that the spiritual energy around him was desperately drilling into his body. The comfortable feeling of the spiritual energy washing over his body almost made him moan uncontrollably.
Bai Yaoyao, on the other hand, seemed to have no sense of the spiritual energy nearby. She just anxiously rolled up her sleeves, revealing the fishtail mark on her wrist, and then soaked the mark in the pool water.
One second, two seconds, three minutes passed.
Bai Yaoyao looked up in bewilderment, "No response? Could it be that the Great Elder guessed wrong? The pure spiritual energy in this spiritual eye can't nourish Qi Meng and bring her back to life again?"
Chen Yingjie had already sat cross-legged at this moment, barely suppressing the clamor for spiritual energy in his body. After thinking for a while, he replied, "Maybe it won't be that fast, let's wait a little longer!"
Five months later…
Bai Yaoyao clasped her hands around her knees and rested her head on them, looking with satisfaction at a small golden fish dancing in the pond with the spiritual energy. Then she turned her head to look at Chen Yingjie, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, absorbing the spiritual energy.
After staring for a while, she half raised her head and began to count the vortexes of spiritual energy rising from the pit.
Finally, Bai Yaoyao couldn't help but scream, "How boring!!!"
God knows how she has been spending the past few months!
On the third day after they arrived here, the fish tail in Bai Yaoyao's hand finally responded and began to flash a faint golden light.
This change made Bai Yaoyao very happy. With her persistent soaking, the fish tail mark finally turned into a complete golden fish after a month.
Three months later, Bai Yaoyao discovered that she could actually control the little fish to leave her wrist.
After that, Bai Yaoyao threw the little fish into the pond and let it move around on its own.
And she started to do the hard labor - using a shovel to collect all the spiritual soil near the spring and put it into her backpack.
The Eye of the Spirit Spring is revered as a holy spring by the mermaids, and the Dinghai Pearl, the only thing that can protect them from coming down, is controlled by the great elders of all generations. Unless there are special circumstances, no tribe members are allowed to come down.
So over the past millions of years, the spiritual soil accumulated on the seabed has almost piled up into a small hill.
This made Bai Yaoyao so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
With these spiritual soils, and the fact that she designated them as a specialty when she returns this time, the old people in the family probably won't have to argue with each other anymore!
In addition to these spiritual soils, Bai Yaoyao also had an unexpected gain.
It was a clump of unknown grass on the east side of the pond. The leaves were emerald green, with small light yellow flowers on top, emitting a faint fragrance. It looked very inconspicuous.
But after Bai Yaoyao pulled them out, the system actually prompted an illustration.
[Biquan Lingrui: A specialty of the Mirage Sea Secret Realm, the companion fairy grass of the Eye of the Spiritual Spring, containing abundant pure spiritual power.]
Although I don’t know what the specific effects of this magical herb are, anything that is listed as an illustration in the system is obviously a good thing!
However, no matter how good the thing is, it cannot save Bai Yaoyao who has been doing nothing for almost two months.
In fact, since the little fish transformed by Lan Qimeng can break away from Bai Yaoyao and gather spiritual energy in the Eye of the Spirit Spring alone, Bai Yaoyao can leave.
But it is probably because the spiritual energy here is too abundant. Over the past few months, Chen Yingjie's realm has changed almost every few days.
In just five months, Chen Yingjie has reached the tenth level of the Qi Refining Stage and is about to break through to a new realm!
