1323 No, I Won't Retreat!
In this kind of perilous situation, Qiuqiu's voice truly was like a chorus from heaven, moving Qiao Mu to tears.
"Quick, Qiuqiu! Can you first integrate the glacial pond from that heart of the forest secret realm inside my inner world into Paradise Planet. I have a use for it."
It only took an instant for the two spiritual energy beads to close in on Qiao Mu from in front and behind.
Yet in a split second, numerous tough green vines and branches intertwined to enswathe Qiao Mu into a cocoon.
The two spiritual energy beads exploded beside her.
Subsequently, the tremendous energy shock razed the soil layers in the vicinity to ground level.
A high-strung buzzing noise continued to resound through the air. Qiao Mu hastily rolled backwards while still swaddled in the tough vines, and then she got up and ran.
"Little Master, let me first pull you into Paradise Planet to hide!" Qiuqiu suggested anxiously.
"No! I won't retreat." A faint resoluteness flitted across Qiao Mu's eyes. If she hid inside Paradise Planet like a turtle whenever she encountered trouble, then she could forget about breaking through and advancing in this lifetime!
Moreover, she simply did not want to expose something as important as the Paradise Planet to two enemies.
Why did she have to retreat? She was not yet at the end of her rope.
And even if she was, it did not mean that there was no route of retreat either!
She could not get accustomed to shrinking back when she encountered danger, she had to… advance courageously!
Qiao Mu maintained her petite stoic face as she repeated, "Quick, Qiuqiu, listen to me. First integrate the things from the heart of the forest secret realm into Paradise Planet."
"Yes!" Qiuqiu understood his little master too well.
She was originally someone with a firm will, so it was impossible for her to retreat in this kind of situation.
Since that was the case, he had to do everything possible to support her!
Master must have her reasons for handling it like this.
Indeed, cultivators could not get into the habit of shrinking back whenever they met with danger. Otherwise, they would not be able to accomplish anything in the future!
"It will hurt a bit, Master."
Even though he would not be assimilating the entire heart of the secret realm into her dantian, remolding Paradise Planet would naturally affect his master.
"It's fine." Qiao Mu was carrying a large "green vine shield" on her back as she advanced swiftly. At the same time, the mystic-guiding talisman matrix was unceasingly absorbing the mystic energy in the surroundings, gradually replenishing her mystic niche.
When Qiuqiu integrated the glacial pond inside the heart of the forest secret realm into Paradise Planet, Qiao Mu felt a stabbing pain in her dantian.
However, this lapse of pain was much too gentle compared to when she absorbed Paradise Planet into her body.
She could pull through just by steeling herself.
Afterwards, she threw 18 defensive talismans around the green vines shielding her so that the former would ward off the middle-aged woman's attacks first.
Beneath the black veil, the middle-aged woman's face had already turned extremely grave and unsightly.
She wasn't able to take down this little lady even after such a long time.
Fan Qiuhe was also anxious and went to help besiege Qiao Mu. However, this simply made more trouble by being a drag on the middle-aged woman.
When Qiao Mu caught a glimpse of this "big brother," she sent all her blue attack talismans at him.
Fan Qiuhe was not an esteemed great spiritual cultivator like this middle-aged woman. He would absolutely kick the bucket if he got hit with so many blue attack talismans.
"He'er, watch out!" The middle-aged woman yanked him away.
