Chapter 38: The Red Star Flower that Is Close at Hand

The red fire ape escaped, and the forest returned to silence.

Ji Tianxing was lying on his back on the grass, his eyes misty looking at the sky, the orange sunset was gradually falling to the horizon.

It was getting dark, and the moon would rise after an hour at most.

He knew that the time was short, but he couldn't get up at all, and he didn't even want to move his fingers.

too tired!

The tiredness that came from the depths of his soul made him truly appreciate the consequences of excessive mental exhaustion.

"Although I can manipulate the sword qi and let the sword qi kill the enemy within ten feet of my body, this is the effect that can only be achieved at the seventh level of the True Yuan Realm."

"But this consumption is too great. If I use it a few more times, I'm afraid I will become weak and become a fool... It seems that I should use it with caution in the future, and only use it at critical moments to save my life."

He closed his eyes and thought silently, waiting for his physical and mental strength to slowly recover.

At this time, the little ice fox poked his head out from the grass.

It looked around vigilantly and saw that there was no danger around it, so it picked up the package not far away and dragged it to Ji Tianxing's side.

"Lao Ji, didn't you bring a lot of medicinal pills in your package? Take medicinal pills to restore your strength!"

"It's getting dark, we have to get out of here quickly."

While talking, it rummaged through the package and found four or five white jade vials, which were lined up in front of Ji Tianxing.

Ji Tianxing stretched out his hands exhausted and picked out a small jade bottle with the words "Qi Yang Dan" on it.

He opened the bottle and poured out a few vermilion medicinal pills, stuffed them into his mouth, chewed them twice and swallowed them.

Suddenly, he realized that the situation was not right, and immediately looked at Little Binghu in doubt.

"Little fox! How come I lost more than half of my medicinal pills? Did you steal it?!"

Little Binghu quietly took two steps back and explained with a smirk: "I was bored in the package before, so I ate those pills as candy pills... I didn't mean to."

"Okay, you stinky fox!" Ji Tianxing wanted to hit it angrily, but he had to give up before his physical strength had recovered.

"Humph! I think you want to steal the medicine pill to restore your strength, and then run away?"

Xiao Binghu rolled his eyes and quickly changed the subject: "Hey, Lao Ji, don't talk, it's important to recover your strength!"

"If we don't leave before dark, the bloody smell on the grass will attract a large number of monsters, and then we will have to become monsters' dinner."

Ji Tianxing suppressed his anger and took a few Huiyuan Dan to quickly regain his strength.

About half an hour later, the sky darkened, and night was about to fall.

At this time, Ji Tianxing's physical strength also recovered 60-70%, so he carried the package on his back and continued to rush to the top of the mountain.

On the way to the top of the mountain, he heard the movement of monsters running from all directions, as well as the roar of beasts one after another.

Xiao Binghu quickly reminded him: "The red star flower has already bloomed, and the breath is getting stronger and stronger. The nearby monsters smelled the breath and wanted to rush to snatch it."

"You have to speed up! Otherwise, not only will you not get Chixinghua, you will also be besieged by a large number of monsters."

Ji Tianxing frowned and rushed to the top of the mountain with all his strength.

After a quarter of an hour, he finally reached the top of a thousand-zhang-high mountain and came to a forest with sparse trees.

He looked around vigilantly, looking for the location of Chi Xinghua, and checked the surrounding situation.

However, it was already dusk, and the light in the woodland was dim, making it difficult to see clearly.

He could only hear the movement in the surrounding jungle, getting louder and louder, and the roar of the beast getting closer.

The little ice fox quickly stretched out its small paws and pointed to the southwest of the woodland.

"Over there! Come over there, there's a cliff there!"

At this moment, Ji Tianxing didn't care to distinguish the truth of its words, and hurriedly ran.

He ran wildly for more than three miles before he rushed out of the dense and dark jungle and came to a clump of rocks.

The open space with a radius of 100 zhang was full of rubble, and half-person-high weeds grew between the black-brown boulders.

Ji Tianxing jumped into the boulders, walked through dozens of boulders and dense grass, and finally reached the edge of the cliff.

Five steps away was a cliff in front of him, and in front of him was a sky shrouded in dense fog.

The cliff was at least a thousand feet deep, and white mist continued to rise from the bottom of the cliff, blocking everything at the bottom of the cliff, making Ji Tianxing unable to see clearly.

Little Binghu's little red nose twitched twice, a look of joy appeared in his eyes, and he hurriedly urged: "Lao Ji, the breath of Chixinghua came from under the cliff, not more than 20 feet away from us, you can find it quickly. what!"

Ji Tianxing was also overjoyed, looking around in high spirits.

He stepped on the edge of the cliff, leaned out half of his body and looked down the cliff, and immediately saw that there was a steep rocky cliff under the cliff.

However, the cliffs are not flat, there are cracks in many places, and there are many bumpy boulders that protrude out of the cliffs, and many green vines grow.

Night has finally come, the stars and the moon have not yet appeared, and the sky and the earth are pitch black.

Ji Tianxing anxiously searched for a radius of 20 feet, but did not see the red star flower, not even a strange-looking herb.

Suddenly, the little ice fox lying on his shoulder stretched out its small paws, pointed to a jagged rock under the cliff, and exclaimed in surprise, "Lao Ji, look there!"

Ji Tianxing hurriedly looked in the direction it pointed, and immediately saw a little silver light dimly lit up in the crack of the jagged rock.

"It's Red Star Flower! It must be!"

Ji Tianxing was refreshed, and quickly found a vine with a thick wrist on the ground, and climbed down the cliff along the vine.

Before coming to the Taiye Mountains, he had carefully investigated the news about Chixinghua.

The red star flower is more than two feet tall, the rhizomes and branches are dark, but the flowers are silver.

This flower absorbs the essence of the sun, moon and stars for years and months, and the petals will emit a faint silver light at night, like starlight.

However, this flower blooms only once every sixty years, and each plant has only one flower, and the flower will wither and fall after only six days of blooming.

After a while, Ji Tianxing climbed along the vines to ten feet below the cliff, and stepped on a large rock protruding from the rock wall with both feet.

But he is still more than forty feet away from the boulder where the red star flower grows, and it is impossible to jump over it with his strength.

The rock wall between the two boulders was also bare, with nowhere to borrow, only a cluster of dark green vines grew.

The vines are only about the thickness of chopsticks, and they look very weak, unable to support his weight at all.

He had no doubt that if he climbed those vines to pick the red star flower, he would definitely fall off the cliff and shatter his bones.

At this moment, Ji Tianxing showed a helpless wry smile on his face.

The red star flower is not far in front of him, but he can't pick it, or even get close.

Moreover, he could clearly hear the sound of the footsteps of monsters running from the rocks above the cliff.

At least three monsters have rushed to the edge of the cliff.
