More than a dozen sword lights cut through the sky and flew toward the Eternal Spring Peak where the Herbs Sect was located.
The sword lights were colorful and looked messy. However, if one looked carefully, he would find that all the sword lights revealed a sense of desolation.
Lin Feng stared at the sword lights and thought, "I've long heard that the treasure of the Wilderness Sword Sect is called the Great Desolation Sword Method. It has a long history and has been passed down from the Remote Antiquity to the present. It's quite unique. Today, I see that it deserves its reputation."
The leading one was a red sword light with amazing power. Like a meteor, it fell toward the Eternal Spring Peak with a long flame tail.
"Sword cultivator of the Golden Elixir Period." Lin Feng glanced at it and immediately determined its cultivation.
The Wilderness Sword Sect was the biggest power in the southern part of the Great Transverse Mountain Range. Cultivators of the Golden Elixir Period visiting the Herbs Sect were like people from a superior unit inspecting a subordinate department.
The Herbs Sect naturally would not shut them out. Under the control of someone, the hazy clouds and mist dispersed to both sides. The Magic Formation was temporarily stopped and the Wilderness Sword Sect's sword cultivators were welcomed up the mountain.
The Herbs Sect had an ancestor of the Yuanying Period. The highest cultivation of the Wilderness Sword Sect was only a cultivator of the Golden Elixir Period. Therefore, they also showed their due respect to the ancestor of the Herbs Sect. They stopped their sword lights, landed on the ground, and walked up the mountain from the foot.
Lin Feng took this opportunity to hide himself and followed the cultivators of the Wilderness Sword Sect to the Eternal Spring Peak.
Whether he broke in by force or by stealth, it was easy to alarm the ancestor of the Hundred Herbs Sect if he touched the Mountain-protecting Formation. Now, taking advantage of the visit of the Wilderness Sword Sect and the opening of the gate of the Herbs Sect, Lin Feng secretly entered the Eternal Spring Peak.
With the help of the System, as long as he did not fight with others, it was difficult for others to find out the existence of Lin Feng.
Walking on the mountain road to the top of the peak, Lin Feng paid attention to hiding his whereabouts and quietly observed the situation on the Eternal Spring Peak.
The Eternal Spring Peak followed the steep style of the Great Transverse Mountain Range. There were cliffs everywhere, and the mountain rocks were straight up and down. The slope was very steep.
Generally speaking, the cultivation sects would plant medicinal herb fields in the mountain gate on relatively gentle slopes.
On the other hand, the Hundred Herbs Sect's elixirs all grew on the cliffs.
In the crevices between the rocks, there was some soil. Many spirit herbs grew out of the soil in these crevices, swaying and growing between the cliffs until they ripened.
What was even more shocking was that almost all of the cliff's stone walls were covered with all kinds of spiritual herbs, densely covering the stone walls in the air.
"The Nine Turn Heavenly Fungus is the main ingredient for the vast majority of medicines that restore magic power."
"Mystic Gold Blood Ginseng, the main ingredient of the Thunderclap Great Rejuvenating Pill. It has a miraculous effect in treating flesh wounds."
"The Tri-Sun Sea-Expanding Pill refined from the Tri-Color Orchid can expand the qi sea of an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator and increase their total magical power."
"There's also the Spirit Harmonization Fruit. Refining it into a Spirit Harmonization Pill can increase the speed at which a cultivator absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, thus increasing the efficiency of cultivation … Good heavens, they're all good herbs." Lin Feng was drooling at the sight. He was not proficient in medicinal herbs, so he didn't know more than half of the spiritual herbs on the rocks.
However, just the herbs that he was able to recognize were already enough to make him extremely excited.
Ascending the Eternal Spring Peak, the top of the peak was flat, but it didn't look like it was formed naturally. Instead, it looked like someone with great Divine Sense and Dharma power had forcibly shaved off the top of the peak.
The leader of the Wilderness Sword Sect was a thin middle-aged man. He carried a long sword on his back and looked calm and composed.
He signaled the others to follow the Elder of the Hundred Herb Sect who was in charge of reception to rest and settle down. Then, under the guidance of others, the middle-aged man walked into the main hall at the center of the peak alone.
In the main hall, a white-haired elder in cyan clothes was sitting cross-legged on a futon. In front of him was a huge Elixir Furnace. The fire in the furnace was burning fiercely, and a wisp of medicine fragrance came out of it. Obviously, the refining of elixirs had reached a critical moment and was about to be completed.
The thin middle-aged man cupped his hands and said, "I'm Qu Bin. Nice to meet you, Senior Hundred Herb."
The white-haired elder was the Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect. He smiled faintly and said, "Qu Bin, you don't have to be so polite. Your master and I have been friends for nearly a thousand years."
A smile appeared on Qu Bin's thin face. In front of the Wilderness Sword Sect where he came from, the Hundred Herb Sect was just a small fry. However, he was still very respectful to the Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect. The reason was that a practitioner of the Golden Elixir Period should respect an Ancestor of the Yuanying Period.
One could not respect people, but one must respect power.
This was Qu Bin's creed.
He looked at the Elixir Furnace and said with a smile, "Senior, you are going to make a furnace of good elixirs."
The Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect laughed and said, "You came at the right time. Take half of this furnace of elixirs back to your master."
Qu Bin nodded with a smile. The Hundred Herb Sect occupied the Blessed Land of the Great Transverse Mountain. The reason why the Wilderness Sword Sect had a tacit attitude was that the Hundred Herb Sect had to pay a large number of elixirs to the Wilderness Sword Sect as a tribute every year.
Qu Bin's master was the Elder of the Wilderness Sword Sect who had the closest relationship with the Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect. Most of the time, the pavilion closest to the water enjoys moonlight first.
"Out!" When the time was right, the Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect waved his wide robe sleeves and the Elixir Furnace was opened. Instantly, the smell of elixirs filled the air. Countless rays of light rushed out and illuminated the entire hall.
Among the rays of light, countless spiritual clouds, auspicious signs, and fairy flowers and precious trees appeared.
Qu Bin took a light breath and felt comfortable all over. He felt that his Golden Elixir had become much rounder.
"Good elixirs. In the entire Great Transverse Mountain, only you can refine such elixirs." Qu Bin praised, "Moreover, your skill in refining elixirs has reached the point of perfection. You almost don't waste any of the medicinal materials. You refine all of them into elixirs. It really makes me gasp in amazement."
The Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect stroked his long beard and was obviously very satisfied. But soon, he sighed again.
"It's a pity that this Elixir Furnace can't keep up with the times."
The Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect's Elixir Furnace was an artifact he obtained during his Golden Elixir Period. At that time, he naturally regarded it as a treasure. But as his own cultivation and alchemy skills increased, this Elixir Furnace became somewhat outdated.
Although the Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect had upgraded the Elixir Furnace to an artifact of the Yuanying Period after he formed his Nascent Soul, the foundation of the Elixir Furnace itself was relatively shallow. After forcefully upgrading it, the Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect still felt that it was not powerful enough when he used it.
"If only I could get my hands on the Furnace of the Outer Core." The Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect's face was full of nostalgia. "I saw it once in the past. Unfortunately, I just brushed past it. I wanted to search for it later, but I couldn't find it no matter what."
Qu Bin's thoughts wandered. "I've heard of the great name of the Furnace of the Outer Core. It's said that this furnace is made from meteoric iron. When refining elixirs, it generates its own core fire, which adds a strong fire power. Refining elixirs is twice the result with half the effort."
The Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect sighed and waved his sleeve. "Forget it. Let's not talk about this anymore."
Qu Bin nodded. His expression became much more solemn. "Senior, how's the progress with the Renyuan Panacea?"
The Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect smiled. "The second batch of Renyuan Panacea is about to mature. You don't need to worry."
"In the faction, although my master has tried his best to cover it up, it has already attracted a lot of attention." Qu Bin sighed. "What my master means is that after refining this batch, we should put it aside and wait for the attention to pass."
The eyes of the Ancestor of the Hundred Herb Sect, which seemed to be blurred by old age, suddenly shone brightly. "That's the only way. If I catch the person who leaked the news, I'll make him taste all kinds of strange poisons in the world!"
He glanced at Qu Bin. "It's the same as last time. After the elixirs are completed, you can take away 60% of the elixirs. You can stay on the mountain for the next few days. After the elixirs are completed, you can take the elixirs and go on your way."
Qu Bin nodded. "I've come under the orders of my master. That's exactly what I intend to do."
…
Lin Feng saw Qu Bin enter the main hall, but he did not continue to follow him.
"Let's find the Living Soil first." After thinking for a while, Lin Feng took out the Mirror of Heaven and Earth. Since this item could find the Mountain God Jade, it should be able to find the Living Soil now.
Sure enough, a yellow light flashed on the surface of the Mirror of Heaven and Earth, and two light spots lit up. The red light spot in the center of the mirror represented Lin Feng, and the yellow light spot represented the location of the Living Soil.
Lin Feng followed the directions of the Mirror of Heaven and Earth. As he walked, he suddenly heard a long neigh.
"What a familiar sound." Lin Feng turned his head and saw four giant Brontosaurus horses, dragging an equally giant Cyan Thunder Chariot, slowly moving forward under the guidance of the Hundred Herb Sect.
Mr. Red Leaf got off the chariot and walked slowly, talking to an elder of the Hundred Herb Sect who was in the Golden Elixir Period.
Although Mr. Red Leaf was only in the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, he was already a rising star in the Great Hengduan Mountain Range. Everyone believed that he was destined to become a legend.
At the same time, he was generous and often bought large quantities of medicinal pellets from the Hundred Herb Sect. He was a big customer of the Hundred Herb Sect, so they sent an elder of the Golden Elixir Period to receive him.
Mr. Red Leaf's harmonious and large harem was now obediently following behind him.
This large group of beautiful women had earned Mr. Red Leaf a lot of face. Walking in the territory of the Hundred Herb Sect, people would turn their heads to look at him.
What drove all the male disciples of the Hundred Herb Sect crazy was that these beautiful women would stare at Mr. Red Leaf's back even as they walked. They didn't hide their love for him at all.
The only thing missing was a line of words written on their foreheads: "I love Red Leaf, I am proud."
Lin Feng's eyes flashed. He noticed that Xiang Lanying was also among this group of beautiful women.
Her face was still a bit pale. It seemed that she had just recovered from the poison. However, this did not stop her from walking at the same pace as the rest of the group. She stared at Mr. Red Leaf with infatuation. It was obvious that she had successfully become a member of Mr. Red Leaf's harem.
Lin Feng laughed silently when he saw this.
Although he was a bit displeased that a bunch of good cabbages had been taken away by the same pig, Lin Feng quickly put the stallion to the back of his mind and returned his attention to the Mirror of Heaven and Earth.
Lin Feng searched according to the Mirror of Heaven and Earth. After a while, it showed that he was very close to the Living Soil.
However, when he looked up, he was surrounded by barren mountains.
'The Living Soil should have been taken away by the Hundred Herb Ancestor not long ago. He must have wanted it for some purpose. Could it be for the legendary Renyuan Jindan?' Lin Feng thought to himself, 'If the Renyuan Jindan really exists and the disciples of the Hundred Herb Sect don't know about it, it means that the Hundred Herb Ancestor has hidden it from others and secretly refined this pill.'
'If I were the Hundred Herb Ancestor, where would I put the secret alchemy room?'
