The reason why Mo Wen didn't start a conflict with the two burly men guarding the mountain path was because he had his own considerations. He still didn't know the background of the Changtian Sect, so it wasn't wise for him to casually provoke a sect.
After all, he wasn't here to fight with others, he was only here to look for spiritual medicine.
If he could steal the spiritual medicine without anyone knowing and not make enemies with some strong sects, it would naturally be a win-win situation.
He quietly climbed up the cliff and entered the mountain through a dense forest. What entered his eyes was a stretch of green, birdsong and fragrant flowers.
Mo Wen suddenly realized that there was actually a faint spiritual energy floating on the White Rock Peak. Although the spiritual energy was very thin, it was definitely there.
He had once practiced the Cultivation method, so he was naturally more sensitive to spiritual energy than ordinary people. Previously, when he was wandering in the Changbai Mountain range, although he noticed some spiritual energy fluctuations, it was only limited to a very small area.
However, the White Rock Peak gave people the feeling that the entire peak was enveloped in spiritual energy.
That feeling was like Mo Wen had once again returned to his world. Since entering the dream again, he realized that the spiritual energy on Earth was very thin. There was basically no spiritual energy in the modern cities, and in some mountains, it was also very barren, so it was very difficult to discover the existence of spiritual energy.
For the Cultivators, spiritual energy was the foundation of everything. Without spiritual energy, it was almost impossible to achieve anything.
That was the reason why Mo Wen didn't practice the Cultivation method even though he knew some ordinary Cultivation methods. As far as he knew, he didn't have the conditions for Cultivation.
However, on the White Rock Peak, he clearly discovered the existence of spiritual energy. Although it was far from being comparable to those mountain peaks in the foggy mountains, it was undoubtedly an unexpected surprise.
With spiritual energy, it meant that in the future, Cultivation was possible. There was spiritual energy on the White Rock Peak, so naturally other places could have it too. Some places that were suitable for Cultivation might also have it.
No wonder the Changtian Sect would occupy the entire mountain and claim the White Rock Peak as their own. Based on the spiritual energy on the White Rock Peak, one could know that there were definitely spiritual medicine growing on the peak, and there might even be quite a few.
Other than that, places with spiritual energy were also very useful for the growth of ordinary medicinal herbs.
The White Rock Peak was very likely a medicinal mountain, so the Changtian Sect valued it so much.
Mo Wen was instantly excited. Spiritual medicine was what he needed the most right now. If he could find some spiritual medicine on White Rock Peak, it would be immeasurable for his practice.
Unfortunately, after walking around White Rock Peak, he found a lot of precious medicinal herbs, but basically did not find any elixirs.
Although he had obtained quite a few precious medicinal herbs, he had yet to see any spirit herbs, so he was somewhat disappointed.
However, the Spiritual Qi on White Rock Peak was still a bit thin, so it was not easy to grow Spirit Herbs. Even if a few stalks grew occasionally, they would have long been targeted by the people of Changtian Sect and plucked away.
He discovered that there were many people hidden in many places on White Rock Peak. Those people were all wearing the same uniform and were squatting in some places, not moving at all. If it wasn't for Mo Wen's strong perception that allowed him to discover those hidden people in advance, he would have been discovered long ago.
"What a tight security."
A glint of surprise flashed in Mo Wen's eyes. From what he knew, there were no less than two hundred people hidden on White Rock Peak. He had not even counted the people from the other regions, yet he had already discovered so many.
Some of them even had the cultivation of the Sea of Qi realm, while the weaker ones were also in the Regulated Breathing realm.
"That Changtian Sect is really generous!"
Mo Wen squinted his eyes slightly, and a glint of thought flashed in his eyes. So many people were lying in ambush on White Rock Peak. What exactly were they trying to do?
Or were they guarding something?
Could it be the Flame Flower?
Mo Wen still remembered that before the old man in black died, he had said that the Flame Flower would mature in these two days.
Changtian Sect had sent so many people to guard, most likely to prevent others from stealing the Flame Flower. That old man in black obviously knew about this, so he had instigated Mo Wen to search for the Flame Flower.
Mo Wen touched his chin. If that was the case, then it would be troublesome to obtain the Flame Flower.
He was very curious. Since Changtian Sect had guarded the Flame Flower so closely, how did that old man in black know the specific location of the Flame Flower?
He took out the map and compared it to the marked location of the Flame Flower. He discovered that the flower was not at the peak of the mountain, but halfway up the mountain, in a valley to the north of White Rock Peak.
The map shouldn't be fake. That old man in black couldn't have known beforehand that it would fall into Mo Wen's hands, so he made a fake map to deceive him.
So the marked location of the Flame Flower on the map shouldn't be wrong.
A glint of light flashed in Mo Wen's eyes, and he sneaked into the valley to the north.
No matter what, he had to go and take a look. The Flame Flower was too valuable to him, so he couldn't give it up easily.
If he let a spiritual medicine like the Flame Flower fall into the hands of some ordinary sects, it would simply be a reckless waste of God's gift.
Those ordinary sects often used some precious spiritual medicine to concoct pills, but they didn't know alchemy at all. Naturally, the pills that they concoct would not be very good, wasting the value of the spiritual medicine for nothing.
However, those alchemists in the martial arts circle sects didn't know how many precious things they had wasted, and would even be proud of concocting pills that had some effect.
Along the way, Mo Wen avoided many open and hidden sentries. Relying on his super strong Forest Concealment Technique, he crossed more than half of the forest without being discovered by anyone.
After a while, he appeared in front of a narrow valley entrance. However, the valley entrance was heavily guarded, with more than 20 people guarding it.
There was even a leader in the Qi Nucleation realm sitting cross-legged on a rock at the valley entrance with a serious expression.
Mo Wen hid in the tall weeds, secretly surprised. The valley entrance was already heavily guarded, so he didn't know what it was like inside the valley. There would definitely be more people.
Now, he could almost be sure that the valley in front of him was where the Flame Flower was.
Moreover, he could feel that the spiritual energy in the valley was much denser than in other places on White Rock Peak. It was equivalent to three or four times denser than other places.
It was very possible that not only the Flame Flower, but there were also other spiritual medicine in the valley.
Mo Wen's heart was burning with passion. If he could snatch all the spiritual medicine in the valley, it would definitely be a great harvest.
However, the valley was heavily guarded, and there were countless experts. It would not be easy to snatch food from the tiger's mouth.
He rolled his eyes, then retreated into the forest and secretly caught a wild rabbit. Then, he knocked the wild rabbit unconscious and placed it at his position.
Then, he quietly snuck to the side of the valley entrance, sticking close to a stone wall. That position was very close to the valley entrance, but it was not easy to be discovered.
After waiting for about the time it took to burn a joss stick, the unconscious wild rabbit suddenly woke up. It shook its head for a while, then started running.
"Who's there?"
A rustling sound came from the forest in the distance, immediately attracting the attention of the old man in the Qi Nucleation realm at the valley entrance.
In the next moment, his figure flashed, and he crossed a distance of more than ten meters. With a few leaps, he caught up with the wild rabbit.
The old man in the Qi Nucleation realm shouted. The other people guarding the valley entrance were all shocked. One by one, they turned their heads to look in that direction, not understanding what had happened.
However, when they turned their heads and focused all their attention in that direction, a faint shadow flashed past them and quietly entered the valley. No one noticed that a person had already passed by them.
"A wild rabbit."
The old man in the Qi Nucleation realm grabbed a brownish-gray wild rabbit by its ear. With a few flashes, he returned to the valley entrance.
When everyone heard that, they all heaved a sigh of relief. Today was the day that the Sacred Flower had completely ripened. If anything happened to it, none of them could bear the responsibility.
…
Although the valley entrance was very small, the valley was very big, and it was empty inside.
The moment Mo Wen snuck into the valley, all the pores on his body opened slightly. The feeling of the spiritual energy hitting his face once again descended on Mo Wen's body after being separated by two spaces.
It was like a thirsty person suddenly discovering a small stream. His whole body felt indescribably comfortable.
He could be sure that the spiritual energy in the valley could definitely guarantee the needs of some low-level Cultivators for their practice. To be able to encounter such a place on Earth was definitely a very rare thing.
Since there was spiritual energy on Earth, would there also be Cultivators?
From the law of development of a world, a world with spiritual energy was very likely to give birth to Cultivators.
In the long history of a world, it was not impossible for there to be a few people who could understand the way of heaven on their own, create Cultivation techniques, and walk out of the shackles of heaven and earth.
A look of contemplation flashed in Mo Wen's eyes. If there was a Cultivation legacy on Earth, where was it hidden?
At least according to what he knew, there were basically no Cultivators on Earth. Even that Huatian Palace, although very powerful, seemed to have no traces of Cultivators. At least the few people from Huatian Palace that he had come into contact with were all ancient martial arts practitioners and not Cultivators.
Suppressing the thoughts in his mind, he knew that now was not the time to think about this. Finding the Flame Flower was the most important thing.
He looked around, then quietly snuck in in a direction. After walking for about a hundred meters, a huge rock appeared in his eyes.
The rock was as big as a football field and was about twenty to thirty meters tall. The bottom was deeply embedded into the ground, and only half of its body was exposed.
Mo Wen secretly clicked his tongue. Such a huge rock was no different from a small mountain.
The surroundings of the rock were low-lying, and the higher it went, the higher it went, forming a slope.
That geographical environment was like a meteorite falling from the sky, crashing onto the White Rock Peak.
And the valley was very likely the result of that huge meteorite crashing.
At this moment, there was a group of people standing on the huge rock. There were more than ten of them. Although there were not as many people as in the valley, each of them had at least Sea of Qi realm Cultivation.
Mo Wen drew in a cold breath. Other than that, there was also an ancient martial arts practitioner in the Qi Nucleation realm. One of them was even in the later stage of the Qi Nucleation realm, while the others were in the intermediate stage of the Qi Nucleation realm.
