Tian Jing looked at her, "Aren't you going to self-detonate anymore?"
"Not anymore."
'Tian Jing' curled her lips.
"Like you said, to upgrade and get revenge, I can't give up easily. But what about the zombie virus in my body? The detoxification vaccine in the base is very expensive."
"Don't worry about that, by using energy exchange, you can exchange the virus out."
"Energy exchange?"
"Yes, energy exchange is... so, among those you need to be wary of, there's that special wood-element female ability user."
"I suspect she's hidden her level. I'm already level seven."
'Tian Jing' nodded, "So that's how it works? No wonder no one else can achieve it, she's too insidious."
"Let's not talk about this for now."
It was more important to do the main business first, and she still had to take these two fellows to upgrade. Tian Jing was very busy.
"First, go into my domain and get a grasp of energy exchange. In a moment, I'll take you out, and we'll do a triangular exchange on a plant together, that way, it'll be faster."
"Then, I'll teach you both my Sky Flower Scatter skill and this domain skill."
"Especially this domain skill, colorless and imperceptible. Once you control a life form, with just a thought from you, the life form can turn into bloody mist."
"As for whether you can surpass your level, I don't know yet. It's fine for those of the same level, and low-level ones can still quietly eliminate high-level ones."
"However, someone who has reached the peak of level nine definitely can't defeat someone who has broken through into the immortal cultivation realm."
'Tian Jing' was a bit dizzy, "This domain of yours, isn't it something you just recently figured out?"
Tian Jing nodded, "Yes, but I was already pondering this skill at level six and something was always missing. It was just perfected by the shock of your self-detonation."
'Tian Jing' gave an awkward laugh, "Hehe, I just couldn't wrap my head around it."
Speaking of which, Tian Jing had something to ask, "By the way, why did that little girl want to harm you?"
'Tian Jing' shook her head, "I don't know either. I always treated her as a friend. She's only eight years old and she kept calling me Sister Tian, so I didn't guard against her."
Tian Jing waved her hand, "We'll talk about this later. We need to roam outside the base to upgrade. If we go back into the base, there will be missions, and we won't have time to cultivate."
"Mhm mhm."
...
Tian Jing asked Li Zhengguo to get off the bus, but Li Zhengguo refused.
Tian Jing extended her hand, "Do you need me to help you?"
"No, I... can... do it... myself."
"Then stop dawdling. I don't mind, and you should be more open about it."
"Okay."
...
Tian Jing got off the bus and looked back.
Seeing Brother Zheng hopping on one leg with excellent balance, she was relieved.
She gave Brother Zheng a thumbs-up, "You'll definitely break through to level nine or above. No matter what you look like then, we have to go back."
"There are still things we need to do over there. You've worked hard to handle all six worlds."
"When we got to the second world, you ended up like this. Lu Xiaoyun and Chen Yaoshi must not be let off."
"Yes, revenge."
Tian Jing led Brother Zheng to a pine tree, "Xiao Qing, what year is it in the apocalypse?"
"The fifth year."
"Xiao Qing, are you sure you're not lying to me?"
Xiao Qing swayed its branches, "No, no, this is the fifth year."
"Then who told you?"
"I have it in my memory."
It was in its memory? Could it be that female ability user again?
Tian Jing didn't blame others, only herself, for actually believing Xiao Qing and not asking anyone else for a whole year.
She almost blew up this world.
If Brother Zheng hadn't come, all nine lives would have been ruined. What talk of rewriting the ending?
"It, isn't, it, Xiao Song?"
Li Zheng's question interrupted Tian Jing's thoughts.
"It's Xiao Qing. It's a mutated plant I encountered as soon as I arrived here. It looks a lot like Xiao Song, right?"
"I wonder if we can send Xiao Song here after we go back? This is Xiao Song's world."
"That... is difficult."
Tian Jing understood, she was being too fanciful. Should she smear Chen Suozhu's blood on Xiao Song? What if Xiao Song entered a different life?
"I'll go, I'll go with you."
Xiao Qing expressed its thoughts, "I don't like it here, there's too much betrayal. With just a little thing, you doubt your teammates, and Tian Tian doubted me."
Tian Jing quickly waved her hand, "I was just asking earlier, not overly suspicious. After all, a year's difference almost caused a major incident."
"However, this world truly cannot have complete trust."
"If you were to go over, your abilities might be downgraded, or they might disappear. You would just be planted wherever you landed, like Xiao Song."
Xiao Qing swayed its branches, "It's okay, it's okay. I'll keep Xiao Song company."
Tian Jing emphasized again, "If during the process of going over, you get thrown back, or thrown to another place, I won't be able to find you."
These words didn't scare Xiao Qing, "It's fine, I want to try, only then will I be content."
Tian Jing nodded, "Then it's settled. Let's talk about other things."
"What things?"
"Why didn't I notice you when you were following me?"
Speaking of this, Xiao Qing happily swayed its branches, "I can use skills too now, I can hide my skills."
"How do you hide?"
"I hide among the trees I want to hide within, and others can't distinguish me. Because when I use the hiding skill, I'm not a pine tree, but the appearance of the tree I'm close to. Hehe."
"When did you learn it?"
"When you didn't want me, I cried and thought, if only I could secretly follow you. Suddenly, I learned it."
When it mentioned Tian Jing not wanting it, Xiao Qing's tone still carried a hint of complaint.
Tian Jing comforted it, "Yes, yes, Xiao Qing is very capable. From now on, we'll be together."
"That's great." Xiao Qing was very happy.
...
Tian Jing returned to the domain and told 'Tian Jing' to be ready, she was about to withdraw the domain.
As soon as the domain was withdrawn, 'Tian Jing' quickly canceled her self-detonation abilities. The crystal core in her head ached.
It took a long time for her to recover, and the zombie virus in her body began to rage again.
"Quick, I can't hold on."
Tian Jing released her domain, enveloping her and leaving the place, "You two follow."
Xiao Qing disliked Li Zheng's slow hopping, "Hey, you, jump on me, I'll carry you."
Li Zheng resisted, but seeing Tian Tian getting further away, he could only put aside his inferiority complex and let the little green ride him.
A zombie and a tree found two women sitting cross-legged under a giant tree, their hands on the trunk, meditating.
The two of them vigilantly scanned their surroundings, keeping watch for the two women.
After a long time, the two women opened their eyes.
'Tian Jing' tested her abilities, they ran smoothly without any obstruction.
"Thank you, the virus is really cleared out."
"You're welcome."
Tian Jing looked up at the tree trunk in front of her, which had turned black, and decided to start her cultivation by sweeping through this tree.
...
A year and a half later.
In a high mountain, Tian Jing, using her ability to cover 'Tian Jing' and the now one-meter-tall Xiao Qing, nervously watched the zombie struggling to transform in the distance.
"Hoo hoo hoo!"
A terrifying, inhuman scream echoed far and wide.
Li Zheng, emerging from his cocoon like a butterfly, bathed comfortably in the winter sun.
Tian Jing brought one person and one tree over. Li Zheng smiled at his wife, a smile he hadn't shown in a long time, "Wife, my love."
Tian Jing unleashed her domain skill, enveloping the two of them and the tree, "Let's leave quickly. That roar just now was too terrifying."
