In the vast Divine wilderness, in the Tai Ah Herb Mountain, a small figure was climbing and jumping between the mountains!
Wearing the 200 cauldron Flowing Mercury Gown, Yi Yun had to be careful with every step. He could not step on the soil, and every step had to be on the rocks, or his entire leg would sink in.
In the Divine wilderness, there were plenty of rocks. Many of them were hard enough to support Yi Yun's weight.
After stepping on a rock, Yi Yun was about to take his second step. Suddenly, the large piece of rock that he had just used as leverage flipped over. It was as if Yi Yun's massive weight had lifted it out of the soil.
The sudden change gave Yi Yun a fright. The moment the rock beneath his feet toppled over, his entire body tumbled down with it.
Wearing the 200 cauldron Flowing Mercury Gown, if he did not change the weight in time, rolling on the rock was no laughing matter.
A normal rock would have been crushed by Yi Yun rolling on it, and Yi Yun would also be injured.
Seeing that he was about to fall on a large rock, Yi Yun still did not change the weight of the Flowing Mercury Gown. Instead, he forcefully twisted his body in mid-air and pulled out the Thousand Army Saber from his back!
Cha!
The Thousand Army Saber, which was about the length of a person, cut into a large rock like tofu. Using this force, Yi Yun's body swayed and somersaulted in mid-air. Using the force of the somersault, Yi Yun's body, which was about to fall backwards, was forcefully swung to the side.
He was like an agile ape. His body moved ten feet away, and with a tap of his toes, he used another large rock as leverage. With this tap, Yi Yun's foot had shattered the large rock.
With this, Yi Yun finally had enough strength to land firmly on the mountain rock.
This series of actions was the result of Yi Yun reaching the large success stage of Minute Subtlety during this period of time. If not, he would have had to reduce the weight of the Flowing Mercury Gown and fall down the cliff.
Carrying 200 cauldrons of weight while climbing a mountain. If he was not careful, he would shatter the rock. The difficulty was obvious.
Yi Yun was constantly exploring and experimenting. In these experiments, he slowly made his control of his strength more precise. Every bit of strength could not be more or less. It was like he was dancing on the tip of a knife.
Peng, Peng, Peng!
Yi Yun climbed up the mountain step by step. Every step he took was quick and careful.
Wherever he passed, it was as if he had been trampled by a giant beast. Holes appeared where he landed.
The few times he encountered problems with the rocks he stepped on, Yi Yun would use his movement techniques to defuse the danger.
"Hmm?"
Yi Yun suddenly realized that a tree about a hundred meters in front of him was emitting tiny beams of light, as if it was overflowing with starlight.
The Purple Crystal within Yi Yun's body began to throb slightly. Sensing the existence of the beam of light, Yi Yun was alerted.
Now, as Yi Yun's cultivation level increased, his spiritual energy also became stronger. His perception became more acute. Every bit of energy fluctuation within a hundred meters of Yi Yun was in front of him. Everything was clearly visible.
And if it was an existence on the level of an Archaic Descendant. It contained an incomparably pure energy, so even if they were separated by a distance of more than ten miles, it would still be able to absorb it. Yi Yun could sense it. Even if this energy was sealed, it was still the same. Of course, it was one thing to sense the sealed energy, but it was difficult to absorb it!
This was the amazing vision that the Purple Crystal had given Yi Yun. This was a world made up of energy.
With the Purple Crystal's guidance, Yi Yun easily found the source of the energy.
Pushing aside the shrubs, Yi Yun found a fist-sized flower in a gap in the tree trunk.
"Void Star Flower?"
After identifying the flower's color and comparing it to the flower's luster, Yi Yun identified the flower's origin.
When he first came to the Tai Ah Divine City, he had read the book "Divine wilderness". There were records of the Void Star Flower. The Void Star Flower absorbed Heaven Earth Yuan Qi and rain to grow. The tree it took root in looked like a parasite of the Void Star Flower, but it was just an ordinary tree.
But in fact, the tree was a mimicry of the Void Star Flower's roots. If the Void Star Flower was plucked, the tree would slowly wither.
In the Divine wilderness, there were many treasures that had the ability to hide and protect themselves. If not, they could easily be eaten by fierce beasts or taken away by humans.
The Void Star Flower was a high-grade Yellow-ranked herb. It could be exchanged for about three dragon scale runes.
"After walking so far, I only found a high-grade Yellow-ranked Void Star Flower. If it were other Divine City cultivators, without the help of the Purple Crystal, they could only pluck weeds and turn over rocks. Then the efficiency of picking herbs would be even lower. In a day, it would be impressive to find more than ten Yellow-ranked herbs. If one's luck is good, finding one or two Mystic-ranked herbs would be a bountiful harvest."
"A low-grade Yellow-ranked herb can only be exchanged for one or two dragon scale runes. A little more Mystic-ranked herb can only be exchanged for about ten. With this calculation, a herb-picking cultivator can obtain about 40-50 dragon scale runes a day. That's not bad!"
"But to be herb-picking workers, they have to hand in 25 dragon scale runes worth of herbs every day. This is to create resources for the Divine City, and also to prevent people from slacking off. After 25 dragon scale runes are deducted, there will be even less left!"
With this calculation, it was no wonder that people were unwilling to pick herbs. It was indeed a lonely, lonely and dead-end job.
After Yi Yun picked the Void Star Flower, he carried on. He specially picked some rubble to walk on. He used the rubble that was easy to roll down to test his movement technique and strength control.
This naturally slowed down Yi Yun's speed.
Most cultivators who came to pick herbs would start searching for herbs the moment they arrived at Herb Mountain. They did not have the time to care about anything else. If they could not even pay the 25 dragon scale runes rent, their dragon scale runes would go into the negatives.
If they had negative dragon scale runes for more than two days, then the Divine City would take back the free accommodation they had been given, forcing them to sleep on the streets.
To a warrior, sleeping on the streets was nothing. It did not sound like a punishment, but … it was embarrassing.
Those who could come to the Tai Ah Divine City were all proud people. If they did not even have the qualifications to stay in the Divine City for free, and had to sleep on the streets, it would be a laughing stock if their family clans learned of this. They might as well commit suicide by banging their heads against the wall.
Hence, when picking herbs, no one dared to slack off. But for Yi Yun, he had been moving slowly ever since he came to the herb mountain. Most of his time was spent on practicing his movement technique. As for picking herbs … he just randomly picked. With the Purple Crystal, Yi Yun could pick anything he wanted.
Soon, Yi Yun's herb basket was filled with more than ten herbs. They were all Yellow-ranked herbs.
Yi Yun estimated that these herbs were only worth about 30 dragon scale runes.
"Oh? That is … "
Yi Yun looked up. He realized that a few hundred meters away, there was a blurry energy fluctuation. It was several times stronger than the Yellow-ranked herbs' energy fluctuation he had previously felt.
"It should be a Mystic-ranked herb."
Yi Yun licked his lips and used his movement technique. Like a nimble ape, he flew towards the energy fluctuation.
Yi Yun interfaced his spiritual energy with the Purple Crystal. In his field of vision, the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi had gathered into a large blob. It was like a burning flame. Clearly, there was a spiritual item here.
But, after leaving the Purple Crystal's field of vision, Yi Yun could only see a black boulder. The boulder's surface was rough and it was filled with potholes. It looked no different from a normal boulder, and there was no sign of any herbs.
Yi Yun stroked his chin as he pondered over the records in the 'Divine wilderness' book. Soon, he understood what the boulder in front of him was.
Yi Yun suddenly pulled out his Thousand Army Saber and slashed down!
"Cha!"
With a soft sound, a large chunk of the black boulder was directly shaved off!
"So hard! Looks like I guessed right. "
Yi Yun's eyes lit up. The Thousand Army Saber could cut through metal like mud. With his physical strength, Yi Yun could easily slice through a thick steel wall, not to mention a boulder.
But the boulder in front of him had been sliced apart by Yi Yun's saber, but his palm had gone numb.
This was no ordinary boulder, it was a meteorite!
"No wonder it's a meteorite! In the process of meteorites falling from high altitudes, due to the friction with Heaven Earth Yuan Qi, the high temperatures will cause it to burn, burning away the impurities. At the same time, the meteorite is infused with the essence of Heaven Earth Yuan Qi. After being cast, the meteorite's hardness is on a completely different level from normal steel. It's like a metal essence that has been forged by a blacksmith thousands of times! "
After Yi Yun sliced the meteorite, the surface was very smooth. It was grayish-white inside, and in this grayish-white texture, there was a hole the size of a thumb. It looked very conspicuous.
Yi Yun inserted his finger into the hole and pinched it. A smile suffused across his lips.
He quickly dug out a meaty "worm" from the hole!
But, this was not a worm. It was called "Meteorite Grass", a rhizomatous plant.
The Meteorite Grass's seed would fly tens of thousands of miles in search of a place to take root in the vast wilderness.
It would be attracted by meteorites, especially the meteorite's aura. Eventually, it would land on the meteorite's surface.
The Meteorite Grass's seed would secrete a corrosive liquid. After a few years, it would slowly bore into the meteorite's interior and germinate!
After that, the Meteorite Grass would be like a worm in an apple. It would slowly wriggle in the meteorite's interior, drilling out a thumb-sized tunnel. It would absorb the meteorite's iron essence, allowing it to grow!
Such a magical plant made Yi Yun sigh. The Divine wilderness was full of wonders. The life forms here had completely exceeded Yi Yun's understanding.
"Meteorite Grass! A mid-grade mystic rank herb that is close to the high-grade mystic rank. As there are few of them and they are not easy to find, the Tai Ah Divine City's handbook rewards 82 dragon scale runes! "
After Yi Yun learned martial arts, his memory was very good. He could basically memorize the dragon scale runes rewards recorded in the handbook.
The dragon scale runes reward for a mystic rank herb started from 10. According to the herb's value, a few rare mystic rank herbs could be worth hundreds of dragon scale runes. They were even more precious than some Earth-ranked herbs.
"Oh … Let's call it a day. It's time to go back. It's my first day picking herbs, so there's no need to exaggerate."
