After they landed, horror dawned on Gu Li and Zhu Lüqi immediately. ≧
The owner of the voice had not even shown himself, but he had already reduced them to such a wretched state.
Even a powerhouse at the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage might not possess such a technique!
For this reason, the owner of the voice was most likely a Saint Celestial Stage powerhouse!
When they realized they had angered a Saint Celestial Stage powerhouse as soon as they arrived in the Upper Province, fear rose in their hearts. Fear could be seen in their eyes.
"Senior, we didn't mean to offend you … We didn't mean to intrude into your herb garden."
After taking a deep breath, Duan Ling Tian calmed the surging vital energy and blood in his body before he said politely to the sky, "We've just arrived from the Lower Province, and as soon as we entered the Inter-province Transportation Formation, we were sent here. We promise that we didn't destroy a single blade of grass or tree here!"
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Gu Li chimed in, "That's right, senior. Now that we know this herb garden has an owner, we're planning to leave. We don't want to cause any trouble … Senior, please let us leave on account that we didn't mean to offend you."
Although Zhu Lüqi did not say anything, a hint of desire could be seen in his eyes.
It was not that he was unwilling to speak, but Duan Lingtian and Gu Li had already said everything he wanted to say.
However, he did not hear any reply.
Duan Lingtian and the other two looked at each other and smiled wryly in unison. At the same time, anxiety rose in their hearts.
That powerhouse had not even shown himself, but he had already reduced them to such a wretched state. This was enough to show how powerful that powerhouse was. He was not someone they could go against.
'I'm no match for such a powerhouse even if I use all my techniques and the Jasper Celestial Sword!'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
"You're from the Lower Province?"
After a short while, the aged voice sounded out once more, and its tone carried a questioning tone.
"Senior, we're really from the Lower Province … If we didn't suddenly appear in your herb garden and trespassed from outside, how could you not notice us with your strength?"
As Gu Li responded, he did not forget to flatter the owner of the voice.
"Since you entered by accident, I can't blame you. I'll spare your lives!"
The old voice sounded, and Duan Lingtian and the other two heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that their lives were saved.
With the other party's strength, killing them was as easy as killing chickens or cutting grass.
"If that's the case … Senior, we'll take our leave now!"
Duan Lingtian and the other two stood up. Gu Li cupped his hands towards the void and without waiting for a reply, he took the lead and stepped into the air.
Boom!
However, just as he stepped into the air, Gu Li was pressed down by an invisible force that appeared out of thin air, causing Gu Li to feel a little embarrassed and angry.
"Senior, you … didn't you say you wouldn't blame us and would spare our lives? With your strength and status, you shouldn't be toying with us, right? "
As he spoke, Gu Li's tone became more sorrowful.
Duan Lingtian and Zhu Lüqi could not help but frown. The powerhouse hiding in the dark would not go back on his words, right?
If the other party went back on his words, there was really nothing they could do.
After all, with the strength of the three of them, even if they joined forces, they would not be enough to fill the gaps between the other party's teeth.
"I said I wouldn't blame you and would spare your lives. Naturally, I wouldn't harm your lives … However, since you've been sent here through the Inter-province Transportation Formation, it's enough to show that you're fated with me. It just so happens that the few servants who helped me take care of the herb garden suddenly died a few days ago. Help me take care of the herb garden for a period of time, and when I find new servants, you can leave on your own. "
The old voice continued to sound and entered the ears of Duan Lingtian and the other two, causing their expressions to change drastically.
Based on the other party's words, it seemed like he wanted them to stay and be servants?
Moreover, they would be servants who could die at any time?
"Why? Are you unwilling? If you're unwilling, I'll send you on your way! "
The voice sounded again, and it was filled with a hint of coldness.
"Don't be so ungrateful! You've just arrived in the Upper Province, and if you wander around outside, you might be killed one day … Not only will you be safe in my herb garden, but the cultivation environment is also much better than outside. Do you know how many people dream of coming here to cultivate, but I've turned them away! "
Following that, the tone of the voice changed.
As the saying went, 'Give a slap and give a jujube'.
Upon hearing the first half of the sentence, Duan Lingtian and the other two's expressions changed drastically. At the same time, they knew they had no choice but to be servants in the herb garden.
When they heard the second half of the sentence, they instinctively sensed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy.
In the next moment, they discovered the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy was indeed very dense. It was much denser than the Lower Province where they were previously.
However, since they had not been to other places in the Upper Province, they did not know if the cultivation environment here was much better than the cultivation environment outside.
"Eh?"
Duan Lingtian, who was sensing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy, soon discovered the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy resonated with the herbs in the herb garden.
The aura released by the herbs also merged with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy, causing it to become denser.
'It seems like he didn't lie to us.'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
Although Duan Lingtian had such thoughts, he did not plan to stay here to cultivate. Even if the cultivation environment here was the best in the Upper Province, he did not want to stay here for long.
The reason he left the Lower Province and came to the Upper Province was to rescue his wife and daughter who were trapped by Zoroastrianism.
What he wanted to do was to rescue his wife and daughter from Zoroastrianism.
Although it was impossible for him to kill his way into Zoroastrianism to rescue his wife and daughter with his current strength, he still planned to join Zoroastrianism first before making a long-term plan.
He believed it would not be difficult for him to join Zoroastrianism with his current strength.
However, if he was imprisoned here, it would mean he would not be able to join Zoroastrianism for the time being. In fact, he might not even be able to make it to Zoroastrianism alive.
After all, according to the owner of the herb garden, a few of the servants in the herb garden had suddenly died.
If a servant suddenly died, he could blame it on himself.
However, if a few servants suddenly died at the same time, he could not help but wonder if there was a problem with the herb garden or the owner of the herb garden.
"Senior!"
After taking a deep breath, Duan Lingtian said to the air, "I came to the Upper Province because I have something urgent to do … If you're willing to let us go, I, Duan Lingtian, will definitely remember your kindness and repay you in the future!"
"I'll accept your kindness as well, senior."
Gu Li and Zhu Lüqi chimed in as well. Although they did not have a clear goal in coming to the Upper Province, they knew it was not a good thing to stay in this herb garden as servants.
If they could leave, they wanted to leave as soon as possible.
For some reason, they felt this herb garden and the owner of the herb garden were a little strange.
Especially when the owner of the herb garden said that a few servants in the herb garden had suddenly died, they could not help but shudder. They were afraid they would follow in the footsteps of the former servants.
"I know what all of you are thinking … The previous few choresmen couldn't withstand the rich Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the herb garden because they hadn't even stepped into the Eminent Saint Stage yet. In the end, they exploded and died. However, they also stayed there for ten years before suddenly dying! "
The owner of the herb garden still did not show himself, but his voice clearly entered Duan Lingtian and the other two's ears again. "With your cultivation base, nothing will happen to you even if you stay here for ten years … After ten years, I'll naturally let all of you leave!
It's decided then … If I find out that all of you have the audacity to escape in the next ten years, don't blame me for not showing mercy! "
The voice resonated again before it stopped abruptly.
No matter how Gu Li shouted, the owner of the herb garden no longer responded. It was as though he had completely disappeared.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian, what should we do now?"
In the end, Gu Li could only look at Duan Lingtian helplessly and ask.
"What else can we do now? Since he's so adamant, we can only obediently stay here for now. "
Duan Lingtian smiled wryly.
Among the three of them, he was definitely the one who wanted to leave the herb garden the most since he was in a hurry to save his wife and daughter from Zoroastrianism.
Who knew if the Sect Leader of Zoroastrianism would come out of his closed-door cultivation as time passed?
At that time, the Zoroastrianism would decide the life and death of his wife and daughter.
The moment he thought of this, he became extremely anxious.
However, based on the current situation, what was the use of him being anxious?
The strength of the herb garden's owner was not something they could contend with at all!
It was not practical for them to forcefully leave.
For this reason, they could only take one step at a time and see if they could find an opportunity to leave.
"Let's stay here for now … Who knows, we might be able to find an opportunity to leave in a few days."
Zhu Lüqi's voice entered Duan Lingtian and Gu Li's ears in a timely manner. Both of them nodded in agreement.
This was the only thing they could do now. They had no other choice.
Just like that, Duan Lingtian and the other two stayed in the herb garden.
In the beginning, they did not feel anything about the Spirit Herbs and Spirit Medicines in the herb garden. However, after staying for a while, they discovered that the Spirit Herbs and Spirit Medicines were of a high grade.
Moreover, even Huo Lao said that if these Spirit Herbs and Spirit Medicines were given to him, he would most likely be able to completely repair the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda!
Even with the help of the entire Azure Cloud Mansion, they only managed to repair a small portion of the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
"Huo Lao, are you sure? These Spirit Herbs and Spirit Medicines don't seem to be the materials you mentioned to me before. "
Duan Lingtian asked Huo Lao in confusion.
This was because he felt Huo Lao's words were instigating him. It was as though he was instigating him to loot all the Spirit Herbs and Spirit Medicines in the herb garden.
"My strength has recovered a little … If these Spirit Herbs and Spirit Medicines are refined by my Sun Flame, they can be transformed into the purest energy to repair the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda!"
Huo Lao said.
