Boom, boom …
The lake water was turbulent, and the ink-black water was tumbling endlessly. It was as if a black tide was surging, and the sound was like thunder.
This was a large lake located at the southwest edge of the Palace of Ancient Medicine. The lake water was completely black, and it emitted a strange and cold aura.
At the edge of this large lake, Lin Kui, Murong Zhangfeng, and Bai Qing were silently hiding in a reef cave that was about ten feet high. Pairs of eyes looked at the boundless black lake from time to time.
"I say …" Bai Qing frowned slightly, and a strong sense of impatience flitted across his arrogant face. "Do we have to hide in such a damned place?"
"We do."
Murong Zhangfeng leaned against the wall not far from the cave entrance, and his face was incomparably calm. "Since we've already obtained the Five-Flavor Ancient Medicine's crystal tablets, there's no need to walk around outside. The best way is to hide until the end of the assessment … Soon, the assessment only has a total of seven days, and four days have already passed. "
"I don't agree with such a cowardly way of hiding."
Bai Qing snorted coldly. "Our strength isn't bad, so why do we have to hide? Even if we encounter other strong teams, so what if we fight? "
"Right now, the two strongest teams haven't collected the medicine tablets they need." Murong Zhangfeng glanced indifferently at Bai Qing. "The top ten teams are all trying their best, hoping to obtain the medicine tablets they need before the end of the assessment. Even if we don't have the opponent's target in our medicine tablets, if we encounter the two most destructive teams, they may snatch our tablets and cause us to lose the qualification to advance. "
"The two most destructive teams?" Bai Qing was slightly stunned. "Isn't Gu Haoran's team the biggest threat to us? Is there any other team that you don't want to face? "
"Right now, the teams that are the most terrifying in the entire Palace of Medicine Ruins are the two most crazy teams that snatch medicine tablets," Lin Kui said indifferently. "One of them is naturally Gu Haoran's team, which is the only team in the Palace of Ancient Medicine Ruins that can be called a king. Any team that goes up against them is doomed. Not only will their medicine tablets be stolen, even the team members themselves will be seriously injured and have no choice but to withdraw from the competition. "
"The other team is Huangfu Yin's team, which is considered a new force to be reckoned with. Strictly speaking, Huangfu Yin and Fan Ling aren't that strong. At the very least, they aren't so strong that we don't dare to face them. However, the mysterious girl who claimed to be Elder Bing's secret disciple was extremely powerful. Her cultivation was tyrannical, and her attacks were ruthless. It was said that the young girl was surrounded by two tyrannical ice dragons all year round. No matter which team she encountered, they would be frozen immediately. The number of tablets they snatched is second only to Gu Haoran's team, and they are also one of the strongest Malefic Teams. "
"Other than these two teams, there are a few other teams that are even more terrifying. They hibernate in the darkness and are terrifyingly quiet. Ordinary people simply can't discover their figures. "
Murong Zhangfeng's expression was solemn. "Especially Gong Mu's team. It's as if they've completely disappeared. There's no news about them at all. You have to know that he has the background of being the disciple of one of the top ten evil experts, and is also the strongest genius of the branch institution in the past five hundred years. This guy should have stirred up a storm, but now it's as if he's completely disappeared and let the other teams steal the limelight … That guy, I'm afraid he's silently plotting something. "
Bai Qing was slightly stunned. Suddenly, as if he thought of something, his expression became slightly solemn.
Creepy Leaf Forest was located to the west of the Ancient Medicine Palace ruins. This place was rich in a strange tree … Creepy Leaf Ancient Tree.
This was an ancient tree that could only grow in rich "Black Gold Ore Veins". This tree would automatically absorb large amounts of Black Gold Ore during its growth process, and then gather it on its leaves.
This ancient tree's leaves were sword-shaped, about three feet long, and had incomparably sharp edges.
Because it had been nourished by rich Black Gold Spirit Qi for many years, its leaves were harder than gold and iron, almost equivalent to incomparably sharp Black Gold Small Swords.
This kind of strange tree naturally contained the purest Innate Black Gold Sword Qi. It was a supreme treasure land for sword experts to cultivate.
At this moment, in an open space in the depths of Creepy Leaf Forest, numerous ancient trees towered into the clouds.
The sword-like leaves collided with each other, emitting a faint sword hum.
The Creepy Leaf Ancient Tree's leaves were dense, and the entire forest appeared somewhat gloomy. Only a few rays of sunlight shone through the gaps between the branches, forming sword-shaped spots on the ground. It looked extremely mysterious.
The air rippled slightly, and the Innate Black Gold Sword Qi in the air was incomparably dense. It even formed transparent sword marks that could be seen with the naked eye, constantly flowing back and forth in the air. From time to time, a sharp sword hum could be heard in the air.
If this scene was witnessed by an expert in the Sword Dao, that expert would probably go wild with joy!
This was because the Innate Black Gold Sword Qi here was simply too dense. This kind of Innate Black Gold Sword Qi could not only greatly refine and purify the quality of the Sword Qi in a cultivator's body, but it could also greatly increase one's cultivation level.
Cultivating here for a day was almost equivalent to cultivating for ten days in the outside world!
In the middle of a few ancient trees that were arranged in a standard hexagonal pattern, a silver-haired man with an incomparably handsome face was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
His silver hair danced wildly in the air, and extremely violent Innate Black Gold Sword Qi could be seen with the naked eye converging from all directions like a tidal wave, wildly entering his body.
Finally, after cultivating like this for an unknown period of time, the silver-haired man's body trembled slightly, and a thick black Qi spurted out from his nose and mouth.
After the black Qi spurted out, it condensed in the air without dissipating, coiling around and boiling violently like boiling water.
As time passed, the black Qi gradually overflowed with specks of bright silver light like starlight. This continued for a long time, and when the silver light stopped overflowing, the black Qi slowly calmed down, turning into a black light and returning to the silver-haired man's nose and mouth.
At this moment, the silver-haired man finally opened his eyes. One could clearly feel that his spirit had improved a lot, and his eyes were as bright as stars.
"Boss, how is it? Have you fully recovered from your injuries?"
The wind whistled, and as if sensing the silver-haired man's awakening from his cultivation state, a huge figure jumped down from a nearby Creepy Leaf Ancient Tree.
This was a fat man over nine feet tall. His face was filled with savagery, and he emitted a fierce aura like an ancient beast.
