The three Sect Leaders led a large number of disciples who were searching for the herb thieves and left resentfully.
Xie Yujia looked at Zhen Congming and knew where the herbs came from.
Zhen Congming blushed under Xie Yujia's stare, and he yelled at Hao Ren, "Brother! Get an elixir making room for Sister Yujia! "
Hao Ren's heart skipped a beat when he heard Zhen Congming's words, thinking that this guy was really good at calling him. He didn't know that Zhen Congming had been locked in a small room by Qiu Niu to learn elixir making and dharma treasures. Zhen Congming, who had just transformed into a human and had a childish personality, had been repressed for a long time, and that was why he was so lonely and arrogant.
However, as long as he found someone who was sincere to him, he would be able to blend in immediately. It was the same as Little White's willingness to follow Hao Ren.
"Ok!" To prevent Zhen Congming from pestering him, Hao Ren released a five-elemental hundun lightning bolt and blasted a big hole beside Xie Yujia's cave abode.
After the dust settled, a big round hole appeared around Xie Yujia's cave abode. The hole was small at the entrance and wide at the inside, and it was created by the hundun lightning bolt.
Hao Ren released another sword energy, and it pierced through the rocks between Xie Yujia's cave abode and the elixir making room, creating a tunnel. Now, Xie Yujia's cave abode had a bedroom, an elixir making room, and a cultivation room. It was much more luxurious than Hao Ren's cave abode.
Hao Ren looked at it carefully and still felt that it was not good. The sword energies suddenly grew longer, and one sword energy turned into one hundred swords. They created two rows of stairs at the entrance of the elixir making room and the cave abode, forming a Y shape. They converged at the foot of the mountain and led to the 'vegetable garden' at the bottom of the valley.
This way, Xie Yujia could take care of the herbs and go to the cave abode or the elixir making room without Little White's help. She could just walk.
His cultivation technique wasn't very powerful yet, but it seemed to be successful in cutting mountains and creating roads.
Standing at the bottom of the valley, Xie Yujia was impressed by Hao Ren's thoughtfulness and smiled when she saw Hao Ren leading the way to her.
Hao Ren put away the sword energies, and dozens of sword energies flew over his head and struck toward the empty cave abode.
Crack, crack, crack … Rocks flew in all directions, and the cave abode reserved for Zhao Yanzi opened up a stone path leading to the bottom of the valley.
In Hao Ren's opinion, Xie Yujia couldn't take care of the plants alone, and Zhao Yanzi should help as well.
However, Xie Yujia felt a bit jealous at his thoughtfulness. Zhao Yanzi had all the privileges that Xie Yujia had, but Xie Yujia might not have the privileges that Zhao Yanzi had.
After putting away the sword energies, Hao Ren still felt good. Today, he had unlocked three openings, bringing the total to 75 openings, and the surging nature essence in his body was extremely abundant. Knowing that he shouldn't bite off more than he could chew, Hao Ren gave up on the idea of trying lightning cultivation on Fifth Heaven.
He didn't dig a path in front of his cave because he didn't want to be disturbed while he was cultivating. Especially the energetic Zhao Yanzi; if she came to the valley, she would definitely say that she wanted to go to Fifth Heaven. Hao Ren didn't have the time to accompany her.
While the three of them were cleaning up the valley, the White Sand Sect Master who was wearing a green Daoist robe was greeting a young cultivator respectfully in a place 700 kilometers away from Ethereal Summit.
The grand palace on the mountainside of the White Sand Sect had collapsed, and all the debris was still there. The young cultivator walked on the mountain path and glanced at the collapsed grand palace. Then, he asked slowly, "Sect Master Wang, what happened?"
Sect Master Wang, who was walking cautiously beside this young cultivator, cupped his hands and said, "Senior Ye, I was just about to report this matter. A few days ago, our sect encountered a powerful enemy. During the fierce battle, the main hall was destroyed. That cultivator used a sword light cultivation method, which is very powerful. Later on, he used a sword escape technique, and his speed was very shocking. "
"Oh?" The young cultivator raised his eyebrows.
The White Sand Sect was a big sect on Fifth Heaven, and the area within 50 kilometers was its territory. At the same time, it was an affiliated sect of Sky Mountain Sect on Sixth Heaven. Ye Yan, one of the 16th batch disciples of Sky Mountain Sect, was sent to Fifth Heaven to search for the spirit lode, and he stayed here to gather information.
As an affiliated sect of Sky Mountain Sect on Sixth Heaven and not a small sect on Fifth Heaven, it was hard to believe that someone could bully their way in and destroy one of their grand halls.
"I'm thinking that he isn't a cultivator from Fifth Heaven, right?" Sect Master Wang asked cautiously.
When a Core Formation Realm cultivator suddenly broke into the sect's protective array formation, the White Sand Sect thought that they had caught a big fish. However, this fish was not easy to bite. Not only did they fail to capture this cultivator and get his treasures, but they even looted the herb garden in the back mountain, and the 1,000-year-old knotweed was dug out. From the looks of it, this cultivator was trying to lure them away.
"He used sword energies …" The young cultivator couldn't think of such a cultivator on Sixth Heaven. If he were a cultivator from Seventh Heaven, he wouldn't have come to Fifth Heaven to make trouble for the White Sand Sect.
"Besides, no herb was left in our herb garden, and the three 1,000-year-old knotweed that we were supposed to give to your sect this month were dug out as well," Sect Master Wang continued.
The young cultivator frowned even more. "There are special array formations in the herb garden. How can they enter so easily?"
Sky Mountain Sect was good at growing spiritual herbs, but they didn't grow all the herbs in their own sect. Instead, they had established some affiliated sects on Fifth Heaven, and these sects would grow the herbs, harvest them regularly, and then refine them, make elixirs, or feed them to spirit beasts, forming a complete supply chain.
These knotweed were the most important treasures of the White Sand Sect, and they were protected by layers of array formations. It was even more unbelievable that they could be stolen so easily.
"I don't understand it either. Our White Sand Sect wouldn't dare to lie to your sect even if we had 100 guts. The herb garden is still empty. Senior Ye, do you want to go and have a look? "
This young cultivator looked younger than him, but the sect leader still addressed him as a senior and was extremely respectful.
"Do you know the whereabouts of the person who stole the herbs?" the young cultivator asked after a moment of consideration.
He thought that this incident might be aimed at Sky Mountain Sect.
"According to the memories of the disciples who guarded the herb garden, it was a boy who came and went as fast as a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator on a black disc," Sect Master Wang said in a low voice.
The boy had the speed of a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. He was afraid that the young cultivator wouldn't believe him and would think that the White Sand Sect was trying to take the spiritual herbs for themselves.
The young cultivator's heart lurched. "A boy who stole herbs …" he had heard about it from the elders in the sect. A few years ago, this mysterious figure had visited Sky Mountain Sect and pulled out all the spiritual herbs that were older than 1,000 years in the back mountain under the eyes of the elders who were cultivating nearby. The big figures in the sect were furious …
"Senior Ye, do you have any clues about this?" Sect Master Wang asked immediately when he saw the slight change in the young cultivator's expression.
"We need to investigate it carefully." The young cultivator glanced at Sect Master Wang with his narrow eyes and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Besides, the two elders we sent to First Heaven to investigate were intercepted by cultivators from First Heaven. Fortunately, they weren't injured and returned to Fifth Heaven safely. However, according to the description of the two elders, the person who intercepted them is quite similar to the cultivator who charged into our sect the other day. The female disciple beside that cultivator is holding an elder's command medallion, "Sect Master Wang said as he looked at the young cultivator's expression.
"Your White Sand Sect has encountered a lot of trouble recently!" The young cultivator looked at Sect Master Wang with dissatisfaction.
He knew that the Sect Master of White Sand Sect wouldn't dare to lie to him, but the information was giving him a headache. He heard that the mysterious herb thief often appeared on Sixth Heaven and sometimes on Seventh Heaven. Every time he made a move, he would make the sect lose hundreds of years' worth of savings. Moreover, it was impossible to guard against him, and there was no pattern to it. After a few times, the name of the Herb Thief spread among the high-level cultivators on Sixth Heaven, and their faces changed color when they talked about him.
It was said that a grandmaster on Seventh Heaven once caught this kid, but the kid disappeared half a day later, and that grandmaster dropped from mid-tier Nascent Soul Realm back to low-tier Nascent Soul Realm.
However, this herb thief only went to the famous sects on and above Sixth Heaven, so not many people knew about him. If his master, the First Elder of Sky Mountain Sect, didn't tell him about it, he wouldn't have known about it.
How could a boy like him, who only existed in legends, be interested in these small sects on Fifth Heaven?
Besides, this herb thief had an accomplice?
At this thought, the young cultivator stared at Sect Master Wang and said, "Don't tell anyone about this!"
It seemed like the cultivator who was working with the herb thief was probably a cultivator from Seventh Heaven. They had been eyeing the territories on First Heaven, and they were annoyed when they saw cultivators from Fifth Heaven loitering in First Heaven. Therefore, they decided to teach them a lesson.
"Elder Senior Brother! You are here! " While the young cultivator was deep in thought, a crisp yell interrupted his thoughts.
A golden lion flew over from the sky, and sitting on its back was Duan Yao, the daughter of the Sky Mountain Sect's sect master and the junior sister of the 16th batch of disciples.
"Junior Sister, why are you here?" The young cultivator asked with a smile when he saw Duan Yao turn the lion back into a squirrel and put it on her shoulder.
The golden lion was the mount of the sect master, a level 5 spirit beast. Ordinary disciples didn't even get to see it. However, the sect master didn't use it, so Duan Yao often lent it out to play.
"I'm bored on Sixth Heaven, so I came here to play!" Duan Yao wrinkled her nose and didn't even look at Sect Master Wang. She asked, "Elder Senior Brother, when are you going back?"
"According to the information, the spirit lode is around here. We should be able to find it in a few days," the young cultivator said with a smile. His attitude was not as cold and arrogant as before. Instead, it was full of concern.
"Um …" Duan Yao nodded slightly. "Speaking of which, Elder Senior Brother, did Grand Uncle-Master's Jitian come to Fifth Heaven?"
"Jitian? No way. Isn't it staying in Taotie Palace? Who else can control this level 6 spirit beast except for Grand Uncle-Master? Besides, Grand Uncle-Master has been trying to reach top-tier Nascent Soul Realm for 50 years, and Jitian has been cultivating in Taotie Palace for 50 years, right? "
"Could it be that Jitian got bored and came out to play?" Duan Yao asked immediately.
"Jitian is even older than Grand Uncle-Master. How could it be so playful? Junior Sister, why are you asking about this? "The young cultivator looked at her in bafflement.
"Oh, not really … I saw a white snow lion that was even faster than my Luojia, and I thought that Grand Uncle-Master came to Fifth Heaven for business," Duan Yao scratched her head and said.
"Grand Uncle-Master is on the verge of reaching top-tier Nascent Soul Realm, and he won't come out easily. Snow lions are unique to our Sky Mountain Sect, and we are the best at raising spirit beasts. I'm the only one who came to Fifth Heaven recently, and no one else would ride a snow lion. You must be mistaken! "The Elder Senior Brother smiled at Duan Yao.
"That's strange. Even Luojia reacted. I can't be mistaken, right?" Duan Yao pouted her lips in confusion.
At this moment, Luojia had turned into the size of a golden squirrel and was lying quietly on Duan Yao's shoulder. However, its eyes were so bright that even Sect Master Wang of White Sand Sect didn't dare to look at it directly.
A level 5 spirit beast was equivalent to a low-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, and Sect Master Wang was only a top-tier Core Formation Realm cultivator.
"Sect Master Wang, take me to the herb garden," the young cultivator turned to look at Sect Master Wang who was slightly lowering his head and said calmly.
Meanwhile, Hao Ren of Ethereal Summit saw that it was getting late and urged Zhen Congming and Xie Yujia to return to First Heaven.
Zhen Congming had always stolen vegetables and had never thought about growing vegetables himself. This time, he was very interested in growing his own field on Fifth Heaven. Xie Yujia had grown up in the city and had never done any farming before. Therefore, she was very interested in growing these spiritual herbs with soil.
Hao Ren often lived in the countryside with his grandma when he was little, so he was obviously not as interested as Xie Yujia and Xie Yujia. Seeing that everything was almost done, he was ready to go back.
Little White who had been sleeping all day turned into its snow lion form and carried Hao Ren and Xie Yujia on its back. Zhen Congming took out his ugly flight dharma treasure and stood on it.
After rushing out of the array formation in the valley, Zhen Congming looked back and realized that he still needed an elixir furnace.
He had everything in his necklace except for an elixir furnace. Since it wasn't a consumable item, he usually borrowed the elixir making room in the East Ocean Dragon Palace. However, it was obvious that he couldn't use the one in the East Ocean Dragon Palace here.
He rolled his eyes and realized that the three small sects in the vicinity were too embarrassed to steal from them. "Well, the White Sand Sect that I visited last time is quite big and should have one or two good elixir furnaces …"
While thinking, the three of them broke through the barrier of Fifth Heaven and flew toward First Heaven.
