"This seems to be …"
His Divine Sense flooded out and swept across all directions in an instant.
But immediately after, Chen Xiao's expression was slightly startled, revealing a strange expression.
"This seems to be the remains of a … medicinal herb garden?"
The so-called medicinal herb garden, as the name suggested, was a place where spiritual herbs were planted.
Looking around …
Pieces of medicinal fields were arranged in a unique formation, and they were distributed among the surrounding mountain ridges. They were constantly drawing in the Origin Qi of Heaven and Earth.
However, the vast majority of the medicinal fields were either barren or destroyed by external forces.
Only a very small portion of the medicinal herb fields still had medicinal herbs growing, emitting a refreshing medicinal fragrance.
"It's actually the remains of a medicinal herb garden? According to the direction of the vitality, the core area of the medicinal herb garden should be at … huh? "
As he observed further, the strange expression on Chen Xiao's face became even more intense.
If his calculations and senses were correct, then the core area of this medicinal herb garden happened to be the medicinal herb field under his feet!
The vitality was the densest and most suitable for the growth of medicinal herbs.
Generally speaking, the most precious medicinal herbs in the entire medicinal herb garden would grow in this area.
But the key problem was …
Just a few seconds ago, the explosion of the Sky Piercing Shuttle had completely destroyed this medicinal herb field!
"According to the remaining aura, there should have been at least three or four precious herbs that survived in this medicinal herb field. Now, all of them have been blown up …"
Chen Xiao bared his teeth and couldn't help but feel a little pained.
Under the Immortal State, martial arts were divided into nine realms.
Similarly, divine weapons and secret treasures, natural treasures, martial arts formations, and so on were also divided into nine grades.
Grade nine was the lowest, grade one was the highest, and above grade one was divine-grade.
Even the worst elixir was usually at the sixth grade and was effective for Law Phase Realm martial artists.
If it was grade five or even grade four, it would be effective for Yuan Dan Pill Realm martial artists and even the Jindan State!
"The herbs planted here are at least of the fifth grade. Even I can use them …"
Just as Chen Xiao was feeling the pinch, a series of footsteps came from afar and entered his ears.
A few cautious figures quietly appeared on the top of a nearby mountain.
"I wouldn't have heard wrongly. The source of the explosion just now was definitely here!"
What kind of evildoer is this, Your Highness, please do not disturb me
Several young boys and girls around the age of fifteen or sixteen slowly walked over from the other side of the mountain. They looked travel-worn and vigilant.
One of them, a girl in a red dress, had a resolute look in her eyes as she walked like the wind toward Chen Xiao.
"As long as we can find the Grade Five Elixir, Master's injuries can be cured!"
"Junior Sister Xia, this place is close to the center of the ruins and there are dangers everywhere. Wouldn't it be a little too reckless for us to barge in like this?"
"That's right Junior Sister Xia! It is said that Immortal Gu Hua has an eccentric temper. Who knows what kind of strange restrictions there are in such an important place like the herb garden? "
Hearing this, the other youths beside Junior Sister Xia also tried to dissuade her. Their faces were filled with fear.
According to legend …
The West Heng Mountain ruin was a cave abode left behind by a Golden Core, Gu Hua, more than 2,000 years ago!
According to the ancient records, although Perfected Gu Hua was temperamental, his cultivation was at the peak of Golden Core. Furthermore, he was a genuine Grade Four Array Master!
Once a Dharmic Array reached Grade Four, not only would it possess the might of a Golden Core, it would also be able to blend into the environment and ordinary people would not be able to detect it.
Even if the Jindan State came personally, they would have to be careful in this herb garden!
In the vast West Heng Prefecture, there were hundreds and thousands of sects and aristocratic families. However, there were only three factions with Golden Cores.
The sect behind them was called Purple Qi Sect and their strongest sect master was only at the early-stage Yuan Dan Pill.
The cultivation techniques of Purple Qi Sect focused more on health and their combat abilities were not strong to begin with. That was why not many warriors were willing to join the sect.
There were two more months before the West Heng Peak Meeting that was held once every five years would officially begin.
Yet, at this critical moment, the sect master was ambushed by a mysterious expert and was severely injured to this day, unable to recover!
"Bai Zian! If you're afraid, it's fine to stay here! "
Xia Churou snorted coldly, "Don't forget that if Master's injuries are unable to recover, the Purple Qi Sect will be removed from the Hundred Sect Alliance's list at the West Heng Peak Meeting in two months. None of us will be able to escape!"
"This …"
The moment the four words' West Heng Peak Meeting 'were mentioned, Bai Zian and the rest's expressions changed slightly. In the end, they gritted their teeth and followed.
The consequences of being removed from the list was something they were all too clear of.
It was precisely because of this that they came to this ruin to try their luck.
Before they had walked far.
Xia Churou's footsteps suddenly stopped, a trace of bewilderment appearing on her exquisite face.
"I … I'm not seeing things right?" The young girl muttered softly.
Nine Heavens Overlooking the World
"Junior Sister Xia, what's wrong?" Bai Zian asked.
"Look at that herb garden." Pursing her lips, Xia Churou said softly, "It's the one that's shrouded in smoke and lightning. Is there a … person in the herb garden?"
"There's someone in the herb garden?!"
Everyone was stunned, and then they raised their vigilance.
Before they rushed over, they had already checked the surroundings to make sure there was no one else around.
Now that a person had appeared out of nowhere, they couldn't help but be on their guard!
"This herb garden is very well hidden. If we didn't accidentally barge in, we wouldn't even have discovered this place. The chances of someone arriving early is very low."
Xia Churou lightly shook her head, her eyes glimmering. Looking at the scattered lightning, an inconceivable thought suddenly formed in her mind.
"Could it be …"
Thinking of this, the young girl took a step forward.
In that instant, a blazing and scorching lightning aura suddenly rushed over, with a great terror that could extinguish all life.
"As expected! I know now! "
Seeing this, Xia Churou was not alarmed, but delighted. Her delicate body trembled as she cried out involuntarily, "It's a treasure medicine! It must be a treasure medicine! The top treasure medicine that Spiritual Master Gu Hua planted, after two thousand years of yuan qi baptism, has finally transformed into a human form! "
The young girl's chest heaved up and down, her breathing incomparably rapid, her eyes blazing.
"This remnant lightning is the best proof that it has just passed the Thunder Tribulation and shed its Herb Body!"
Hearing this, the expressions of Bai Zian and the others suddenly became extremely interesting.
At first glance, Xia Churou's guess was indeed absurd and bizarre.
However, Spiritual Master Gu Hua's herb garden had existed for more than two thousand years. If a top treasure medicine did not die, it would grow to an unimaginable level after being watered by yuan qi for two thousand years.
Even if it really shed its Herb Body and transformed into a human form, it was not impossible!
"A spirit medicine that has transformed into a human form …"
For a time, everyone's gazes became blazing hot.
At this moment, the figure in the smoke suddenly walked over.
An unperturbed voice rang in their ears.
"Can any of you tell me where this place is?"
