Immortal really wanted to say, it didn't matter if she could complete the task given by the Taiyin True Monarch, why not all three go together and gang up.
But since Shui Zhongyue said so, she was too embarrassed to speak up.
At the early Foundation Establishment Stage... she slapped on a Golden Light Talisman, and held ten Thunderbolt Talismans in her hand — eleven high-grade talismans, already the limit her Spiritual Power could activate.
Once in the room, she saw an old woman, small and thin like a child, sitting in a corner of the cabin.
The old woman was holding an infant swaddling cloth in her arms, whispering softly.
Immortal glanced at the burial clothes on the old woman, her heart ready to leap from her throat.
The old woman looked up, smiled, and said to her: "You're here."
Immortal felt a tingling all over her body, instinctively activated the Thunderbolt Talisman.
But, upon opening her eyes, she found the old woman was smiling at her, that small face now enormously large, the floral pattern on the burial clothes right in front of her.
She wanted to scream, but all that came out was an infant's crying.
"Ah! Ah!"
The old woman showed an infinitely loving expression and said softly: "Good child, my darling, don't cry, granny is just going to kill you now, don't cry, don't cry."
Immortal suddenly realized, she was inside the infant swaddling!
What kind of trick is this?
The old woman hummed a lullaby, gently rocking the swaddling, coldness spreading through Immortal's body, chilling her feet first.
Cold as Little Green's corpse.
In the middle of the night, she saw Master Liu call for a doctor.
The doctor took Little Green's pulse, and as soon as his hand touched, he said: "Master Liu, it's already cold."
Later, she sneaked away in chaos to hold Little Green's fingers, finding them cold to the touch, so cold it kept her awake all night, so cold her body trembled the next day.
It was this kind of cold engulfing her body, the monster that once devoured Little Green's body was now targeting her.
Right then, a golden light flashed, momentarily blocking the coldness.
Golden Light Talisman!
Immortal seized the chance to instinctively struggle, the peach pit merged with her Spiritual Opportunity, arriving to rescue its master immediately.
Swoosh!
In a pile of clothes fallen at the doorway, the peach pit shot like a flowing light, directly targeting the old woman's brow.
A top-grade Magic Artifact of First Rank Nine Levels, without any wealth, even an early Foundation Establishment Stage might not possess one, plus the evil-breaking effect, the old woman dared not be careless.
She lifted her face, opened her mouth, and roared a visible sound wave at the peach pit.
"Ah——"
The fierce ghost's screech froze the peach pit, like a small fish swimming against the current, halted in place.
With the ghost's lullaby interrupted, Immortal instantly regained her Spiritual Power, she seized the chance, rolled out of the old woman's embrace.
"Child, where are you going, come to granny's arms." The old woman called tenderly, a blue-black ghost hand reaching out.
Swoosh!
As soon as the swaddling hit the ground, Immortal was wrapped in dark clouds, instantly rushed to her Storage Bag side.
Daring not to look at the old woman, relying on instinct, she frantically unleashed ten Thunderbolt Talismans.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Ten consecutive purple-green lightning chains, accurately striking the ghost woman.
Thunder is most effective against ghosts, and that the Moonlight Peach Pit could break evil was because it endured a Thunder Strike, hit by ten Thunderbolt Talismans of First Rank Nine Levels, with the ghost woman's early Foundation Establishment cultivation, she instantly was utterly annihilated.
Immortal returned to her original form.
Naked, snow-white, sitting weakly on her top-grade Magic Robe.
Beautiful as a painting, alluring as a dish served up.
She leaned on her hands, breathing heavily.
The exchange had happened in an instant, but one walked the edge of death, the other utterly perished, showing the peril of this magical battle.
Shui Zhonghua peeked his head from outside, said to Immortal enviously: "You're so rich."
One Thunderbolt Talisman is 100 Spirit Stones, ten make 1000, adding the initial Golden Light Talisman, a total of 1100 Spirit Stones.
Considering a First Rank Nine Level's pricelessness, it could sell for 1500 at auction.
While at Green Moon Square, having over six Spirit Stones on you means you must watch out for murder and looting.
Immortal recovered, first taking the branch in her hand, then from the Storage Bag took out a Spirit Revitalizing Pill.
With the Elixir Pills swallowed, she had Spiritual Power again, waving to get dressed in her undergarments, Magic Robe one by one.
Shui Zhongyue came in, didn't say much, just glanced around the cabin, looked at a corner, where there was a puddle of water.
Accumulated water at the lake's bottom?
Something impossible, yet there it was before the three of them.
Although the same water, the water in the puddle seemed like the real water, while all other water before it turned to air.
This is Mother-water.
For the sake of Foundation Establishment, Immortal had learned that Mother-water was endlessly supplied, as long as a little was left in the puddle, it could "grow" back like plants.
She originally planned to take enough for her needs, leaving the rest alone, but found that after taking all the water in the puddle, it was still not enough.
Shui Zhonghua lay beside her, watching her carefully collect water.
Seemingly understanding what Immortal was thinking, she said: "The ghost woman has to submit a portion of Mother-water each month, the remaining is exchanged for blood food, of course not much is left."
Her tone was so familiar and natural, as if the two were friends.
Immortal found it strange, not only her attitude, but also why she was lying down, later realizing she was a Snake Demon, both confusions were resolved.
After collecting the Mother-water, Shui Zhongyue raised her hand, a wisp of Taiyin Moonlight twirling at her fingertips.
"This is from the Taiyin True Monarch for you." She explained.
"Thank you, senior, and thank you, senior Shui Zhongyue." Immortal accepted.
"Just giving it to her like that?" Shui Zhonghua watching in incomprehension, "Sister, that's Taiyin Moonlight, and you're giving it to some unknown young lady? I get it, she's your mistress! Good for you, forgetting our sisterly ties from childhood, back then we even bathed together, now with a new lover, you forget the old, boo hoo hoo~"
