Among the dark green thorns, there was a clump of light red or dark red grass that was particularly eye-catching. It was only as tall as a palm and had three leaves. Although it was winter, the grass did not wither like other ordinary plants. Instead, it stood there in high spirits.
This was one of Ling Dong's targets for entering the mountain — the Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass! However, this light red Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass was not what Ling Dong needed. What Ling Dong needed was at least a hundred years old Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass.
The use of the Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass should not have been discovered yet. Ling Dong believed that as long as he could find the ordinary Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass, it should not be difficult to find the older Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass. Moreover, the darker the color of the Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass, the older it was. After a hundred years, one leaf would magically turn purple.
In this clump of Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass, there were many dark red ones. Ling Dong's heart skipped a beat. Perhaps there would be a hundred years old Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass among them. Bending down, Ling Dong took out a special herb picker from his Universe Ring. He pushed aside the thorns and rummaged through them. The Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass had different heights and liked to gather in clumps. There might be a hundred years old Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass hidden among them.
Rustling sounds could be heard. Ling Dong carefully rummaged through them. Even in the process of rummaging, he tried to be as careful as possible to avoid damaging the younger herbs. Any normal alchemist would do this.
"Eh?" Ling Dong's eyebrows suddenly relaxed. Under a large clump of thorns, a clump of Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass stood there proudly. The most eye-catching thing was the purple spot among the dark red. It was extremely eye-catching.
"Found it. There are actually three … five of them!" In his excitement, Ling Dong bent down and pushed the small herb picker into the clump of thorns. The Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass had to be dug out from the roots to be useful.
"Bang!"
Just as Ling Dong's small and delicate hoe touched the soil, a thin and long object that looked like a walking stick suddenly reached under Ling Dong's hoe with lightning speed. A strong force was transmitted, and the hoe in Ling Dong's hand bounced up.
What was strange was that the moment the crutch-like object hit the hoe in Ling Dong's hand, it strangely shook a few times. Then, the hoe that was ejected from Ling Dong's hand drew a smooth trajectory and did not damage the hundred-year-old Three Flower Flame Extinguishing Grass at all.
Seeing that the Three Flowered Flame Extinguishing Grass was still intact, Ling Dong heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, his eyes looked towards the direction of the slender walking stick. An old man, dressed in thin green clothes, was holding a slender walking stick that was more than two meters long and was looking at him.
"Young man, that medicinal herb is not something you can play with. Don't waste it!" Seeing Ling Dong raise his head, the old man in green suddenly opened his mouth to speak. His voice was very gentle, but his old-fashioned manner made Ling Dong very unhappy.
"Where did this old man come from? Although I didn't deliberately check just now, there doesn't seem to be anyone around! " Ling Dong glanced around and saw the roof of a tent in the opposite direction in the lee of the wind. He was relieved.
"How did you know that I would waste this medicinal herb?" Ling Dong was puzzled.
"Hmph, even I am testing the magical effects of this red leaf medicinal herb. If you pick it, what are you doing if not wasting it?" The old man glared and waved his hand. "Moreover, this medicinal herb can't be sold for much money even if you pick it. No one will buy it. If you want to pick medicinal herbs to make money, go over there! " The old man casually pointed in a direction. "There is a ten-year-old Questioning Heart Grass that can be sold for a hundred taels of silver. Go quickly!"
Ling Dong looked up and down at the old man. Listening to his tone, he was able to test the medicinal properties of medicinal herbs. It seemed that he was a good alchemist. Since he dared to enter the mountain alone, his cultivation should not be weak.
"Who said that I'm picking this medicinal herb to sell for money?" Ling Dong was puzzled. He chuckled and said, "Also, this medicinal herb is not called red leaf medicinal herb. This medicinal herb is called Three Flower Flame Extinguishing Grass!" After speaking, Ling Dong pointed at the slender walking stick in front of him and said, "Excuse me, I want to pick medicinal herbs!"
"Three Flower Flame Extinguishing Grass, you said that this medicinal herb has a name. It's called Three Flower Flame Extinguishing Grass? Quickly tell me, which alchemy book or medicine book did you see it in? Why haven't I seen it in any alchemy book or medicine book? "The old man asked Ling Dong anxiously and excitedly.
Ling Dong ignored him. Instead, he secretly activated his Gang Qi and tried to use the hoe in his hand to pry open the slender walking stick. He couldn't afford to waste time. Ma Yingu was still chasing after him. With Ma Yingu's speed, it wouldn't take long for him to catch up.
Ling Dong was shocked when he tried to pry open the walking stick. Ling Dong wanted to pry it open slightly and leave after picking the Three Flower Flame Extinguishing Grass. However, the slender walking stick was there. No matter how hard Ling Dong tried, he couldn't pry it open at all.
"Eh? He dares to enter the mountain when he's only at Houtian Realm Level Eight … No, this is strange. It doesn't seem like he's at Houtian Realm Level Eight. His Gang Qi should be Xiantian Gang Qi. Eh, that's not right. He's clearly at Houtian Realm Level Eight … "
While the old man was muttering to himself, Ling Dong was shocked. After so long, he had fought with his father, Ling Yuanshan, for quite some time. Ling Yuanshan couldn't determine his cultivation level, but this old man was able to roughly guess it with just a touch?
How good was his foresight? Foresight was usually proportional to one's strength. What level was this unremarkable old man in front of him? Was he at the beginning of the Earth Emanations Realm or the middle of the Earth Emanations Realm?
"Old Mister, my master taught me about this medicinal herb. Today, I'm here specially to pick this Three Flower Flame Extinguishing Grass." Looking at the old man's serious look, Ling Dong stopped underestimating him. This kind of person was usually very serious. If he got entangled, it would be more troublesome.
Moreover, Ling Dong wasn't lying. This Three Flower Flame Extinguishing Grass wasn't recorded in any of the alchemy books or pharmacopoeia.
"Your master taught you?" The old man's eyes lit up. "Tell me quickly. Is your master an alchemist? What's his name? Where is he now? "The old man asked a series of questions.
Meeting this kind of person, Ling Dong was a little helpless. "Sorry, my master has already passed away. I don't know his name. I only know that he calls himself Medicine Addict!" Ling Dong made up a story. However, there really was someone called Medicine Addict. Similarly, Medicine Addict had been dead for many years.
"Medicine Addict … I've never heard of him!" The old man's face revealed a disappointed look. When he saw Ling Dong, he immediately became happy. "Little Brother, tell me quickly. What did your master teach you? Oh, I'm talking about the Three Flower Flame Extinguishing Grass. Just tell me! "
After he finished speaking, Ling Dong didn't move. The old man smacked his head in self-mockery. "Oh, look at my memory!" A light flashed in his hand and a jade bottle appeared out of thin air. "Do you see this pill bottle? Tell this old man about the Three Flower Flame Extinguishing Grass that your master taught you. This old man will give you this bottle of pills that he personally refined. Do you know what kind of pills this is? You must know that this old man is an Earth Alchemist! "
Seeing Ling Dong's expression change, the old man smiled confidently and raised the pill bottle higher. In his opinion, pills produced by an Earth Alchemist were only useful to most martial artists. Not to mention a young man like Ling Dong, even a Xiantian martial artist would be overjoyed to see it!
What he didn't know was that Ling Dong was shocked that the old man possessed a treasure like the Universe Ring. Possessing the Universe Ring and being an Earth Alchemist, his status was definitely not low. In his previous life, he should have been a famous figure. However, in Ling Dong's mind, he couldn't find any information about this.
However, the Tian Gang Continent was incomparably vast. It was normal to not have this person's influence.
"Earth Alchemist? Is he very powerful? However, can you let me pick this Three Flower Flame Extinguishing Grass first? " Ling Dong said with a smile. However, in his heart, he was cursing the old man for being so troublesome. The Ma Yin Valley shouldn't be far behind.
"No way!" The old man in green was abnormally stubborn. He shook his head seriously. "You tell me first, then I'll let you pick it! Right, don't you want to know the name of the pill I'm going to give you? If you know, Ruo Xu will be very happy to share the knowledge of the Three Stages Three Flower Flame Extinguishing Grass! "
"Oh? What pill are you going to give me? "Ling Dong touched his nose and said with a smile. However, his eyes were looking in the direction he came from.
