Chapter 186 The Secret of Plants
After some research, the expedition team members discovered that the glowing plants were not ordinary vegetation, but mutated creatures nourished by the special spiritual energy in the valley. Their attacks were not out of malice, but to protect themselves from external intrusions.
"These plants... they seem to have their own consciousness," Arya whispered, her eyes gleaming with surprise and curiosity. She reached out and gently touched the leaf of a glowing plant, immediately feeling a faint surge of spiritual energy.
Yun Yi nodded, gazing at the glowing plants. "Their attack method is simple, but incredibly ferocious. We must find a way to counter it, otherwise it will be difficult to continue exploring further."
Kevin stroked his daggers, a sly look in his eyes. "Perhaps we can try to use some method to calm them down and stop attacking us."
Arya's eyes flashed with inspiration when she heard this. "Yes, we can use magic to test their reactions and see if we can find a way to put them into a dormant state."
Arya began casting different types of magic near the glowing plants, observing their reactions. She first shone a warm, healing light on the plants, but the glow only grew brighter, evidently resisting the magic. Next, she tried shooting an icy frost arrow at the plants, but they merely swayed slightly, unaffected.
Yun Yi, on the other hand, used spiritual energy fluctuations to interfere with the plants' perception, trying to find their weaknesses. He found that when he released spiritual energy at a specific frequency, the light of the luminous plants would flicker slightly, as if they were responding to this frequency.
"It seems we've found a way!" Arya shouted excitedly, a joyful smile on her face. She released another spell, this time a soft, soothing light, and Yun Yi also released spiritual power at that specific frequency.
Sure enough, when the soothing light combined with the fluctuations of spiritual power, the light of those glowing plants began to dim, and the leaves were no longer as sharp, as if they had entered a dormant state.
"Success!" Yun Yi also smiled with relief and nodded. "Although this method is temporary, it's enough for us to continue exploring. Everyone, get ready, let's move on."
The expedition team set out again, carefully passing through the area of glowing plants. Following their previously discovered method, they used magic and spiritual energy to disrupt the plants' perception, causing them to enter a dormant state. Along the way, the plants seemed to have lost their vitality, standing silently, no longer posing a threat to them.
After passing through the area of luminescent plants, the expedition continued deeper into the valley. They followed a winding path, surrounded by dense forests and steep mountain walls. A light, refreshing fragrance permeated the air. Arya took a deep breath and exclaimed, "The air here is so fresh! I feel so much more refreshed."
After a long journey, they finally reached an open area. Here, they discovered more ancient stone tablets, engraved with more complex and detailed runes. These runes were more difficult to decipher than the previous ones, but exuded a more mysterious aura.
Arya cast another magical light to illuminate the words, and everyone began to study them carefully. Yun Yi frowned, gazing at the runes on the stone tablet, trying to find a pattern. "These runes... they seem to have some connection. If we can decipher their meaning, perhaps we can uncover the secrets of the valley."
Arya nodded and said softly, "That's right. I feel like these runes seem to contain an ancient power. If we can master it, it might be of great help to our cultivation."
The expedition team once again gathered around the stone tablet and began to carefully study the intricate runes. They discussed in low voices, pointed, and tried to find a clue in the ancient text. A mysterious and tense atmosphere permeated the air, as if the entire valley was silently observing their exploration.
After considerable effort, they finally uncovered some clues to the valley's secrets. The runes seemed to record the valley's history, its mystical powers, and an ancient spiritual practice. Arya excitedly exclaimed, "Look, there's a practice called 'Spiritual Awakening' mentioned here, which is said to significantly enhance the practitioner's spiritual power!"
Yun Yi also revealed a look of surprise. "If that's true, then we've truly gained a lot from this exploration! However, this cultivation method doesn't seem easy to master. We still need to study it carefully."
Kevin stroked his daggers, his eyes gleaming with anticipation. "No matter how difficult it is, we must give it a try! Who knows, this might be a significant aid in our journey to immortality."
The expedition members were filled with excitement, knowing that this exploration would bring them unprecedented rewards. However, they also knew that deeper in the valley lay even more unknowns and dangers, waiting to be uncovered and faced. They exchanged glances, their eyes filled with determination.
"Let's go, let's continue exploring and see what other secrets we can uncover." Yun Yi stood up and said, his voice full of confidence and anticipation. Arya and Kevin also stood up and followed him, embarking on a new journey together.
