What appeared before his eyes was a vast world. The sky was high, the clouds were thin, and the grasses were long and the nightingales were chirping. Countless plants were planted in the fields, and the surrounding spiritual energy was so dense that it was almost tangible. It was even denser than some of the Holy Lands.
"What is this place?"
Frowning, Wei Ruyan walked up to Zhang Xuan doubtfully and drove her zhenqi, fearing that something might happen.
"It should be an ancient land or relic!"
Zheng Yang followed on the other side.
Instead of answering, Zhang Xuan's eyes were filled with doubt. He slowly walked along the ridge of the field and soon arrived in front of the plant. He reached out his hand and plucked a branch from the ground. After studying it for a moment, he smiled lightly and asked, "Did you find anything?"
"Discovered?"
The two students glanced at each other, both of them unable to understand.
Noticing the questioning look in his teacher's eyes, Zheng Yang hesitated for a moment before replying, "The wheat seems to be thicker than the ones on the Master Teacher Continent, and its ability to absorb spiritual energy seems to be stronger as well."
"That's right …" Wei Ruyan nodded in agreement. She couldn't help but feel a little perplexed. Why wasn't her teacher concerned about where he was and what he should do in the future? Instead, he was so concerned about a stalk of wheat.
At their level of cultivation, they wouldn't feel hungry even if they didn't eat. They were far from crops.
"This is a stalk of [Greensprout Wheat]. The spiritual energy contained within it is extremely dense, and if an ordinary person were to consume it over a long period of time, it would be able to improve their physique and enhance their bloodline. Take your Innate Poison Body for example. If you had consumed this from the moment you were born, you wouldn't have suffered so much pain.
Due to her Innate Poison Body being too powerful, Wei Ruyan had been unable to awaken it. As a result, her body had been frail from a young age, and she had been on the verge of dying at any moment. If not for her father, Wei Changfeng, who had gone to great lengths to search for treasures, she might not have been able to hold on until Zhang Xuan accepted her as his disciple.
If one had consumed the Greensprout Wheat as soon as one was born, one's constitution would have been enhanced by several notches. Perhaps, one wouldn't have had to suffer so much, and Wei Changfeng wouldn't have died over a single stalk of medicinal herb.
Zheng Yang's eyes lit up in excitement. "If that's the case, won't it be a blessing to the world if we bring it back to the Master Teacher Continent?"
As the head of the Combat Master Hall, he had to think more deeply than others.
If it could improve one's physique and strengthen one's bloodline, wouldn't everyone on the continent be like dragons?
In the war between mankind and the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, despite the efforts of countless master teachers, Mingshi Tang was still unable to gain the upper hand. The main reason for this was that the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe was simply too powerful.
To reach Transcendent Mortal realm at birth... The stronger one's bloodline, the more formidable one would be. Humans were on a completely different level compared to them.
To be able to withstand the attacks of the other party without falling, it could be said that he had already given it his all.
Knowing what Zhang Xuan was thinking, Zhang Xuan shook his head and replied, "It's impossible to grow it on the Master Teacher Continent."
This kind of vegetation was not recorded by Mingshi Tang, but what he saw in the Book Mountain. It was Kong Shi's ideal vegetation, but it did not exist in reality. He had also carefully confirmed it for a long time.
"Why?"
Zheng Yang was puzzled.
At most, this place had more Spiritual Qi. With their strength, it was not difficult to set up such a place. Why couldn't they plant it?
"Due to the war with the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe on the Master Teacher Continent, there are traces of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe's aura everywhere. What the Greensprout Wheat fears the most is the killing intent.
Once it comes into contact with it, it will be poisoned to death! "As Zhang Xuan explained, he infused a surge of zhenqi harnessed with the Intent of Slaughter at the tip of his finger.
Hula!
It was as if a drop of paint had fallen into clear water. In the blink of an eye, the Greensprout Wheat in a radius of several dozen mu withered on the spot, turning a waxy yellow, as if it had been incinerated.
"This …"
Zheng Yang and the others were astonished. Even Zhang Xuan was taken aback.
He knew that the Greensprout Wheat was extremely sensitive to killing intent, but he didn't think that it would be so effective.
The surge of zhenqi that he had infused earlier was extremely weak, but it was still so powerful. From this, it could be foreseen that even the slightest bit of it could lead to a catastrophe on the Master Teacher Continent.
Once the Greensprout Wheat ran out, it would be useless to improve one's constitution or raise one's cultivation.
"There are many Otherworldly Demons hiding on the Master Teacher Continent, so the air is filled with their killing intent. While it isn't too concentrated, such that ordinary humans won't be affected by it, it's still a huge threat to the Greensprout Wheat …"
Zhang Xuan remarked.
The two of them nodded at the same time, unable to say another word.
One of the reasons why the Master Teacher Continent had chosen Mingshi Tang to stand guard over the Master Teacher Continent was to strengthen mankind, but another reason was to ensure that the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe never stood a chance.
"Since there's no killing intent in the Tianxuan Kingdom, is it possible to plant the Greensprout Wheat?"
Wei Ruyan asked.
As soon as she entered the Tianxuan Kingdom, she realized that there seemed to be a natural barrier that isolated the killing intent in the air.
In other words, there was no killing intent in the ancient land.
"It's true that there isn't any killing intent, but there isn't sufficient spiritual energy either. Besides, haven't you noticed? There isn't any unique energy here that can allow a master teacher to advance their cultivation? "
Zhang Xuan asked.
"This …"
Wei Ruyan was rendered speechless.
As a poison master, she hadn't paid much attention to the unique energy that could allow a master teacher to advance their cultivation. However, upon hearing her teacher's words, she realized that it was indeed the case.
There was no killing intent in the Tianxuan Kingdom, but the unique energy that could allow a master teacher to advance their cultivation didn't exist either.
If one wanted to become a master teacher, they would have to leave the Tianxuan Kingdom and head elsewhere.
Take Lu Xun laoshi for example. He had become a 2-star master teacher because he had gone to another kingdom instead of staying in the Tianxuan Kingdom.
"There isn't any unique energy in the ancient land, and there isn't any spiritual energy either. While there isn't any killing intent in the ancient land, it isn't suitable for planting Greensprout Wheat either. Even if it survives, it won't grow!"
Zhang Xuan sighed.
He hadn't understood much about the ancient land previously, but after abandoning the unique ability of a Celestial Master Teacher, he was able to see the crux of the matter with a single glance.
Even though he had no idea why the ancient land was in such a state, he knew that it was impossible for the Greensprout Wheat to grow.
Otherwise, Kong Shi would have long turned the ancient land into the core of the Master Teacher Continent.
"The ancient land isn't suitable for growth, but it grows so densely here. What kind of place is this?"
Zheng Yang asked curiously.
Something that couldn't survive anywhere else was actually able to survive here. Could there be something special about this place?
"If I'm not mistaken, this is where the Hundred Schools of Philosophers are located. Unlike the ancient domain and folded spaces, it has been developed into a brand new world!"
Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment before replying.
"The Hundred Schools of Philosophers?"
The two of them glanced at one another in astonishment.
Wuuuuuu!
Just as they were about to ask how their teacher was able to confirm the matter, the sound of a horn suddenly echoed in the distance. Following which, a huge group of people rushed in their direction furiously.
