To be honest, even Shen Tian was shocked by the battle prowess of these spirit herbs.
Almost all the spirit herbs that had grown in this herb garden for more than 10,000 years had fused with the herb garden.
They could fully utilize the energy of this domain to enhance themselves and unleash powerful battle prowess. Many of them even had the battle prowess of a Heavenly Venerable.
Especially after diving underground, these spiritual herbs were like fish in water. On the other hand, the combat power of ordinary demon beasts and human cultivators would be greatly reduced underground, to the point where not even 10% of them would be left.
Even a small portion of earth-elemental cultivators who were proficient in underground techniques would have their battle prowess reduced by more than half. It would be good if they could have 30% of their battle prowess.
Luckily, the Divine Devouring Vine's power in Shen Tian's body was very magical. It gave him the ability to move freely underground.
According to Shen Tian's estimation, apart from his long-range attacks such as the Lightning Palm and Sword Kinesis, his close-range attacks were not weakened at all.
Also, Shen Tian felt that even if he only had 30% of his battle prowess left, he should be able to deal with these spirit herbs!
More importantly, hehe, I can burrow faster than them.
In front of me, these spirit herbs can't even run away!
Yeap, the feeling of bullying little kids is great!
Shen Tian turned into a shadow and traveled underground. Wherever he went, all the spirit herbs fled in all directions as if they had seen a ghost.
However, they helplessly realized that this human was really fast!
With a flash of golden light and a flash of green light, this human ran in front of them with a huge hammer. He looked really fierce!
No matter what vine whip attack or flying leaf blade attack, they could not break through Shen Tian's defense at all.
Needless to say, the poisonous fog attack was useless. This fellow had the power of the Pure Reincarnation Land in his body, so he was completely immune to all poisons.
Shen Tian was unstoppable among the spirit herbs. He held the Ocean Divine Hammer in his right hand and instantly broke through all the Sage herbs' defenses. His left hand held a bottle of Triple Light Divine Water.
"Fellow Spirit Herbs, you are all tens of thousands of years older than me. You should understand.
"As the saying goes, life is like rape. If you can't resist, then close your eyes and enjoy it!
"Either you follow me obediently, and if you perform well in the future, you will bear some fruits. You might even be able to get some Triple Light Divine Water to water you. If you are lucky, you might even be able to transform into a human."
"If you force me to use force, this hammer will not show any mercy!"
Shen Tian muttered to himself as he transformed into a streak of golden light that traversed the underground.
Of course, the Holy Medicine basically couldn't understand what he was saying. Their spiritual intelligence wasn't enough to communicate with humans.
However, they could sense familiar auras from Shen Tian's body, such as the extremely pure and rich aura of the True Fire of the Sun and the aura of the Triple Light Divine Water that contained boundless vitality.
The Sage herbs in the Golden Crow Thearch's tomb were basically all fire-elemental. These two extraordinary items were extremely attractive to these herbs.
Therefore, even though they could sense that this human was up to no good, most of the sacred medicines still lingered near Shen Tian, unwilling to flee for a long time.
That was why Shen Tian had a bountiful harvest.
The fat Taoist priest had spent a lot of effort to suppress the Scorching Sun Flame Grass that had lost half of its root. It would rather die than surrender and flee.
However, after Shen Tian's hammer destroyed its protective flame barrier, the Scorching Sun Flame Grass only struggled symbolically for a moment before it stopped resisting.
Of course, Shen Tian had dripped a drop of Triple Light Divine Water on its root, which might have helped a little.
But the main thing was his charisma. That's right, his charisma!
...
Shen Tian's harvest continued. The Scorching Sun Flame Grass was only one of the better quality Sage herbs, but it definitely wasn't the only one.
There were also many supreme-grade Sage herbs that were no less precious than the Scorching Sun Flame Grass. Some were even more precious.
Even though Shen Tian was already quite wealthy, he couldn't help but grin.
Bountiful, it was really a bountiful harvest!
Indeed, the risks and rewards were equal. Although the Golden Crow Thearch's tomb was filled with dangers, the rewards were definitely not something ordinary ruins could compare to.
Scorching Sun Flame Grass
Red Crow Mystic Heart Flower
Glass Heart Fruit Tree
Rock Heart Herb
Snow Soul Flaming Soul Lotus
...
Stalks of precious Sage herbs that were almost extinct in the outside world were collected by Shen Tian just like that.
Any one of these Sage herbs could be treasured by a sacred ground for generations to come and be treated as the most precious treasure.
When necessary, they could be taken out and mixed with their juices and roots to refine an amazing medicine that was extremely useful even for Sage-Stage cultivators.
Of course, the truly smart sacred grounds wouldn't completely destroy the Sage herbs.
They would usually only use a small amount of the juices or leaves to refine medicine, and they would also water the Sage herbs to help them recover. Killing the goose that lays the golden eggs was definitely not beneficial to the long-term development of the sect.
This was also the reason why the Sage herbs' resistance weakened after sensing the aura of the Triple Light Divine Water even though they knew that Shen Tian would use them to refine medicine.
It was better to follow a wealthy master than a poor master, and they would have a greater chance of being nourished.
If they followed that fat Taoist priest who reeked of poverty, what if one day he became so poor that he couldn't cultivate and stewed the Sage herbs to remove the roots? Who could they go to to reason with?
"Are there any more hidden herbs?"
Shen Tian's body turned into an aquamarine light and swept across the ground.
However, there weren't many Sage herbs in the herb garden, and they were all gone after Shen Tian's sweeping.
Shen Tian almost turned the entire herb garden upside down, but he didn't find any more Sage herbs. Not a single one was left.
However, although he didn't find any Sage herbs, Shen Tian found something special. It was an extremely mysterious Spirit Gathering Array that almost covered the entire herb garden.
This array gathered more than half of the Spirit Qi in the herb garden to the core, which was a huge Divine Bird Nest.
It was obvious that when the array was perfected, the Divine Bird Nest was completely protected by an energy shield.
However, for some reason, the array seemed to have been broken, and the Divine Bird Nest was exposed in front of Shen Tian.
There was a giant reddish-gold egg in the core of the Divine Bird Nest. It should have been as tall as a human when it was intact, but it was now broken.
Even so, the eggshell fragments were still emitting an extremely hot aura. It was clearly not an ordinary creature.
"That's what I said! Even if it's a Great Emperor, it's impossible for them to completely disregard the sacred medicine. "
"He left more than a hundred Sage herbs in the herb garden just to nourish this Divine Bird Egg?"
Shen Tian murmured to himself, "Looks like this bird egg is very important to the Golden Crow Thearch! Could it be his tenth son? "
...
It was rumored in the five regions that the Golden Crow Thearch originally had nine sons.
Each of these nine Golden Crow princes had the purest Divine Bird bloodline and were born with the ability to control the Golden Crow Divine Fire.
It was a pity that the nine Golden Crow princes had mysteriously fallen in a certain calamity. Since then, the Golden Crow Thearch had never given birth to a new heir.
This egg had clearly just hatched, and it was still warm.
If it really was a descendant left behind by the Golden Crow Thearch in the five regions, then it would definitely be the Golden Crow Prince.
Its status in the demon race would be indescribably noble!
