My Lady Always Lacks Ambition-Chapter 963 - 940: What a Miserable Ginseng, Strike It for Me!

Chapter 963: Chapter 940: What a Miserable Ginseng, Strike It for Me!

After receiving Qin Liuxi’s assurance, the opportunity was about to arrive, and the Little Ginseng Spirit had been eagerly absorbing the moonlight. The fragrance of the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures had attracted all the evil spirits from the depths of Wanhuai Forest. Once it was consumed, the cultivation power might even transform it into a human being, which was not out of reach.

If it weren’t for the Mountain Spirit Hei Sha helping to protect it, the Little Ginseng Spirit would have long been dissected and devoured.

But while Hei Sha helped to drive away the evil spirits, he couldn’t help it drive away the Heart Demon. On this day, as it meditated and fell into the Void, it unexpectedly generated a Heart Demon, putting the life of the ginseng in grave danger. Hei Sha, both protecting it and sending a mountain ghost swiftly to deliver a message to Qin Liuxi, was scared.

If she didn’t come soon, this little ginseng was going to explode!

Looking at the ginseng’s reddish-purple body, Hei Sha was almost desperate enough to transform; this doomed child was about to pop, so why had that ancestor not arrived yet?

Whispering and rustling.

Hei Sha pricked up his ears and turned around to see that a circle of small animals and shadowy evil spirits had surrounded him, eyeing the Little Ginseng Spirit hungrily and with delighted expressions.

How could they not be delighted? That ginseng fragrance had wafted more than ten miles, already attracting the attention of some Evil Path followers. With a calculation, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures had emerged, how could they not come?

"Get lost!" Hei Sha shouted and snapped a barrier around the Little Ginseng Spirit, internally cursing Qin Liuxi.

If she didn’t come soon, they would only be left with a ginseng corpse — no, not even a corpse, let alone the spirit, given all those desiring creatures waiting to divide it.

Look at them, even after his roar, the creatures didn’t retreat at all, tenaciously waiting.

They had to wait.

The thousand-year-old ginseng spirit, its spiritual energy, its golden light was too tempting.

Though angry, Hei Sha didn’t dare to leave, fearing the already dizzy Little Ginseng Spirit would be taken once he did.

What a mess, which ancestor’s grave had he dug up to be in such anxious trouble?

At this time, the Little Ginseng Spirit was also battling its own Heart Demon. Logically, as a Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasure, it should properly absorb moonlight and wait for the chance to transform, without stirring any troublesome Heart Demon. But the problem lay in its memory of a predecessor’s failed transformation — losing a thousand years of cultivation in an instant, wiped out completely. It feared following in the predecessor’s footsteps.

It had cultivated for a thousand years, and it wanted to become human.

This was its obsession; once an obsession took form, if uncontrolled, it would turn into a Heart Demon, thrusting it into self-doubt.

The Little Ginseng Spirit knew it had reached a crucial point, unable to hold back, it should undergo its tribulation and transform, but it dared not. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

It feared failing like that predecessor.

The Little Ginseng Spirit suppressed the surging spiritual energy within, but the more it suppressed, the more uncontrollable it became, leaking out, with the ginseng fragrance wafting everywhere.

It was about to cry.

If it couldn’t really become a human, even as a ghost it couldn’t spare that Evil God, for it was she who suggested it come here to cultivate.

But then it thought, the Evil God meant well; it was its own incompetence that led to this predicament.

Boohoo, its thousand years of cultivation, who would benefit from it in the end?

So pitiful!

The play in the Little Ginseng Spirit’s heart couldn’t be suppressed anymore, and just when it was nearing desperation, the Evil God arrived.

Qin Liuxi’s appearance eased Hei Sha’s heart, who burst out swearing: "You finally came, if you didn’t, we’d have to erect a tomb for both of us."

Qin Liuxi gave him a glance and said, "A respectable Mountain Spirit unable to handle these evil spirits, maybe you should go back for reincarnation and molding, what kind of dominant figure are you?"

Despised evil spirits: don’t we care about face? If we can’t win one-on-one, we’ll fight together!

Little Ginseng Spirit: Don’t babble, look at me first.

Qin Liuxi stepped forward, glanced at the Little Ginseng Spirit, then approached and placed a hand on its head, saying, "Don’t suppress it anymore, undergo the tribulation."

The Little Ginseng Spirit was shocked: "But, but now, how can we summon the Heavenly Tribulation?"

It was afraid that if the Heavenly Tribulation couldn’t be summoned, it would be a waste.

"With me here, how could it not be summoned?" Qin Liuxi’s face darkened: "Don’t you trust me?"

The Little Ginseng Spirit trembled and weakly said, "I don’t trust myself, I’m afraid..."

"Afraid of what? If the tribulation succeeds, you’ll become human; if not..."

"What if it doesn’t succeed?"

Qin Liuxi coolly replied, "If not, it’ll benefit me. I’ll fully utilize you — if needing alchemy, I’ll do alchemy; if needing medicine, I’ll make medicine."

Listen to that, is it human speech, doing human things?

Little Ginseng Spirit: "!"

You scoundrel!

"So, if you don’t want to be used as medicine or elixir, don’t think about anything else, keep your desire to become human steady." Qin Liuxi chuckled sneakily, "Choose between becoming human and becoming medicine or elixir, your choice."

The Little Ginseng Spirit was so angry it wanted to explode, was there even a choice, it didn’t want to benefit her.

"Listen to me, adjust your breath, mobilize your spiritual energy." Qin Liuxi released it and while speaking, took out several yellow talismans from her sleeve, one of which she bit her fingertip to draw with blood, placing it on the ginseng’s body. The rest, she drew talismans in the Void, golden light shining, and as the talisman formed and scattered, around it.

The Little Ginseng Spirit suddenly felt at peace. Enough.

Success or martyrdom, at worst the final outcome would be benefiting her, no loss!

It began to regulate its breath, circulating the spiritual power accumulated from years of cultivation, and promptly formed a vortex.

Qin Liuxi sat cross-legged beside it, raising her voice: "Those wanting to profit, wait patiently. Whoever dares to seize or possess, bear the consequences."

This warning, like thunder, seemingly carried the intent of lightning, blasting into the ears of the evil spirits watching outside, trembling.

Don’t mess with her.

The Little Ginseng Spirit had already entered a state of oblivion.

Above its head, clouds gradually formed, dark and oppressive, causing some commotion in the outskirts of Wanhuai Forest.

Qin Liuxi made a sealing gesture with her hands, casting a skill onto the talismans, causing them to rotate quickly while she whispered incantations.

The fragrance of the ginseng spread for miles.

Clouds gathered above, lightning flashed with thunder, the sky in this region was oppressively dark as if ready to fall at any moment.

People continuously rushed over quickly.

The Little Ginseng Spirit’s spiritual power had already been exerted to the extreme, yet the Heavenly Tribulation was hesitant to descend.

Qin Liuxi opened her eyes, holding a Lightning Summoning Talisman, and threw it upward; if lightning wouldn’t come, she would summon it.

"Thunder Command, summon All Spirits, bestow upon me Divine Power, let Heaven’s Five Thunders descend..."

A muffled thunder exploded among the sky-covering clouds.

"Still won’t come?" Qin Liuxi’s gaze sharpened, if it didn’t, she would make a ruckus.

Ka-boom.

Sparkling lightning with fire.

Seeing the Little Ginseng Spirit’s spiritual power had reached the limit, Qin Liuxi made a sealing gesture with both hands, sending a burst of spiritual power over: "A thousand years of cultivation, all things have Spirit, I issue this command, grant human form, Heaven Spirit Earth Spirit, command!"

Though the dull thunder rumbled, it wouldn’t fall.

Hei Sha’s heart sank, his eyes reddened, worriedly watching the already nearly translucent Little Ginseng Spirit with clenched fists.

Qin Liuxi opened her eyes, gazed upward, and reprimanded with a stern voice: "Quickly, strike it already!"

Crash.

A finger-thick violet lightning bolt struck straight down onto the Little Ginseng!
