CHAPTER 292: PICKED UP A GREAT BARGAIN FOR FREE

Luo Ruying hadn't expected the Cloud-Stepping Immortal Leopard to break through its realm so quickly!

At this moment, her sword was already in motion, and she had no time to dodge.

If this one strike couldn't kill the Cloud-Stepping Immortal Leopard, then she would be the one in danger next!

Luo Ruying’s expression was solemn. Her only choice was to take advantage of the fact that the Cloud-Stepping Immortal Leopard had just broken through to the Immortal Sovereign realm and its realm was not yet stable, and kill it!

A do-or-die strike!

After breaking through, the Cloud-Stepping Immortal Leopard deliberately and arrogantly transformed into a ball of cloud and mist and pounced towards Luo Ruying.

In mid-air, the Cloud-Stepping Immortal Leopard suddenly felt a chill. Looking into the distance, it discovered a pair of cold eyes in the thicket behind Luo Ruying, staring fixedly at it!

For some reason, seeing that pair of ice-cold eyes, the Cloud-Stepping Immortal Leopard's body instinctively felt fear.

Ning Yechen, hiding in the thicket, slowly raised his hand and clenched it in mid-air.

The Cloud-Stepping Immortal Leopard's eyes instantly widened. Its internal organs and all the bones in its body broke and shattered!

Luo Ruying noticed something was wrong with the Cloud-Stepping Immortal Leopard. Its speed suddenly slowed, and its body froze in mid-air.

This was an excellent opportunity!

Luo Ruying’s beautiful eyes hardened. She seized the opportunity and, with one strike to the throat, cut off the Cloud-Stepping Immortal Leopard's head!

"Huu~"

Having successfully killed the Cloud-Stepping Immortal Leopard without any real danger, Luo Ruying let out a long sigh of relief, her beautiful eyes glancing doubtfully at the corpse on the ground.

Why did this fellow suddenly freeze in mid-air just now…

Could it be that something went wrong with its body when it forcefully broke through its realm…?

Luo Ruying couldn't help but guess in her heart.

The only reasonable explanation she could think of seemed to be this.

Otherwise, with the Cloud-Stepping Immortal Leopard's speed, her previous strike would have been very risky if she wanted to accurately cut off its neck.

Luo Ruying didn't think about it further. She sheathed the Luo Shen Celestial Sword, came before the Purple Spirit Flower, and with a light flick of her jade-like finger, took the thousand-year-old flower into her possession.

To have harvested a thousand-year-old Purple Spirit Flower right after arriving, her luck was really good.

Looking at the Purple Spirit Flower in her hand, Luo Ruying’s pretty face couldn't help but show her joy, and she hurriedly stored it in her immortal ring.

Ning Yechen, hiding in the thicket, saw this scene, thought for a moment, and with a smile at the corners of his mouth, an idea formed in his mind.

Ning Yechen drew close to Luo Hongye’s ear and whispered something.

Luo Hongye’s big eyes lit up, and she also nodded happily.

"Mmm-hmm…!"

After getting the Purple Spirit Flower, Luo Ruying, holding the celestial sword fragment, continued to fly towards the place that was calling to her mind. ŖÂƝồВЕṡ

While flying, she looked down and suddenly discovered something in the forest, and she smelled a thick medicinal fragrance.

A medicinal fragrance this rich had to be from something at least a thousand years old!

There's another thousand-year-old immortal medicine nearby!

Luo Ruying hurriedly floated down and followed the scent.

Soon, she saw an immortal herb lying on the ground, entirely verdant green, its leaves covered in crystal-like patterns.

"This is… Thousand Crystal Spirit Leaf?!”

Luo Ruying’s face showed her pleasant surprise, and she hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the Thousand Crystal Spirit Leaf from the ground.

The leaves were verdant green, crystalline and translucent, the spiritual crystal veins clearly visible, numbering a full thousand.

Without a doubt, this was a Thousand Crystal Spirit Leaf that was over a thousand years old!

And this plant had a full four leaves growing on it!

Luo Ruying joyfully stored this Thousand Crystal Spirit Leaf in her immortal ring as well, and when she looked up, she discovered it wasn't just this one plant.

Not far ahead, another immortal medicine had fallen on the ground!

"Red Immortal Fruit…!"

"Fallen Emperor Ginseng…!"

"Molten Flame Immortal Grass…!"

"……"

Without taking more than a few steps, Luo Ruying was pleasantly surprised to discover one immortal herb and spiritual medicine after another that had fallen on the ground.

She happily picked up the various immortal herbs and spiritual medicines from the ground along the way, the smile on her face never ceasing.

The quality of each and every immortal herb and spiritual medicine was very rare, and they were all at least a thousand years old!

Such rare immortal herbs and spiritual medicines were not so easily encountered, even in the Immortal Realm Trials.

Yet she had been picking them up all along the way…!

Luo Ruying suppressed the immense joy in her heart and, taking advantage of the fact that no one else had discovered them, hurriedly collected all the immortal herbs and spiritual medicines on the ground.

It was as if she were a person who was walking down the road and luckily happened to pick up money all along the way.

Every time she finished picking one up, she couldn't help but look forward to what the next immortal herb would be…

After picking up the last immortal medicine, she even specially and repeatedly checked her surroundings to see if there were any more.

After confirming there really were no more, only then did she begin to take stock of her spoils.

She couldn't believe that she had been able to pick up so many thousand-year-old immortal and spiritual plants along the way…

Looking at the many immortal and spiritual plants among them that did not grow on the ground at all, Luo Ruying couldn't help but feel a sense of doubt.

For example, the Red Immortal Fruit grew on the Red Immortal Branches on cliffs, yet there was no sign of any Red Immortal Branches in the vicinity…

And for another example, that Fallen Emperor Ginseng could only possibly grow in the depths of the earth where an Immortal Emperor had fallen; it was impossible for it to grow above ground…

Many of the other immortal herbs and spiritual plants also had different growing conditions and environmental requirements.

Yet these immortal herbs and spiritual plants were all scattered on the ground…

The strangest part was that no other people or immortal beasts nearby had noticed them; on the contrary, she was the first to notice…

Luo Ruying thought it over and over, and felt that something wasn't quite right…

These immortal herbs and spiritual plants were scattered on the ground at regular intervals; it felt as if it were done on purpose…

Could it be a trap to lure her here…?!

With a delayed reaction, Luo Ruying’s beautiful eyes warily scanned her surroundings.

Just now, she had accidentally become completely immersed in the joy of picking up the immortal herbs and spiritual plants, and had completely forgotten that this might also be a trap to lure her in!

However, when Luo Ruying sent out her divine sense, she discovered that her surroundings were deathly silent. There was no movement at all; even the immortal beasts she could occasionally see were nowhere to be found at this moment.

If this were really a trap, the other party should have attacked long ago when she was unprepared, not waited until after she had come to her senses without making a move.

This meant that this was not a trap…

After thinking it over and over, Luo Ruying could only assume that someone had obtained these immortal herbs and spiritual plants, but had then likely encountered some danger and dropped them on the ground in a panic…

Thinking of it this way, it seemed to make sense…!

Luo Ruying had an epiphany, as if she had already guessed the truth.

It seems her luck was quite good, to have picked up a great bargain for free…!

It was just a pity for the person who had collected these immortal herbs and spiritual plants…

She didn't know who it was that could have collected such rare immortal herbs and spiritual plants in such a short time…

What a pity…

Luo Ruying couldn't help but feel a sense of curiosity and sympathy for the person who had dropped these immortal herbs and spiritual plants.

If she had gone to all the trouble to collect so many rare immortal herbs and spiritual plants only to lose them all, she would definitely be extremely regretful and sad…

Fortunately, she was the one who had found them.

A faint smile appeared at the corners of Luo Ruying’s mouth, and she happily continued forward into the forest.

Hiding in the shadows, Ning Yechen and Luo Hongye once again secretly poked their heads out.

Luo Hongye lifted her cute little face and said in a soft, sweet whisper:

"Daddy~ Mommy seems very happy~"

Ning Yechen ruffled Luo Hongye’s little head and said:

"Right~"

"Daddy told you this would definitely make your mommy happy~”
