Chapter 1900: Tan Zhihui Appears (2/2)
It was too bad nothing came out of the ground.
Five minutes later, Huang Xiaolong arrived at another peak.
Despite traveling across five different mountains, Huang Xiaolong failed to locate another top-tier ginseng.
Huang Xiaolong was not discouraged. If he were to find top-tier ginseng everywhere he went, they wouldn’t deserve their legendary status.
Finally, at the seventh peak, Huang Xiaolong saw a different ginseng roots.
It was golden, and it radiated brilliant rays of golden light. Its roots were so dense that they covered the heavens.
“Taiwu Ginseng!” Lu Xiaoqing exclaimed.
It was indeed the Taiwu Ginseng.
The Taiwu Ginseng was two times bigger and much older than the previous Blood Jasper Divine Ginseng.
It went without saying that the Taiwu Ginseng failed to escape from Huang Xiaolong. Unlike previously, Huang Xiaolong didn’t hesitate to restrain it before throwing it into the Black Dragon Cold Jade Bracelet.
After searching through most of the mountain peaks, Huang Xiaolong finally gathered all twelve legendary ginseng.
The twelve legendary ginseng seemed to form a vast sea as they created massive waves that crashed about in the Black Dragon Cold Jade Bangle.
The next day…
All of a sudden, the Blood Eye Devil Stele and Myriad Curses Devil Stele in Huang Xiaolong’s body shook.
Huang Xiaolong was shocked.
This… Tan Zhihui! The Glaze Devil Stele!
“Let’s return!” Huang Xiaolong stopped in his tracks and said to Lu Xiaoqing. Before she could even react, Huang Xiaolong dragged her towards the exit.
“Your Majesty, you...?” Lu Xiaoqing was puzzled.
Even though Huang Xiaolong had already found twelve legendary ginseng, he had only gone through less than half of the Thousand Constellation Mountain Range.
“Tan Zhihui has returned!” Huang Xiaolong said.
Lu Xiaoqing exclaimed in surprise, “Did Tan Zhihui really return to the Thousand Constellation Country?!”
Huang Xiaolong nodded.
Although the legendary ginseng were precious, they couldn’t compare to the Glaze Devil Stele. Twelve legendary ginseng were more than enough to satisfy Huang Xiaolong. After all, they were not his main objective.
Two days later, Huang Xiaolong and Lu Xiaoqing left the Thousand Constellation Mountain Range and traveled towards the northern part of the Thousand Constellation Country. Judging from the reactions coming from the Blood Eye Devil Stele and Myriad Curses Devil Stele, Tan Zhihui seemed to have arrived in the northern part of the country. From the lack of movement, it seemed as though Tan Zhihui had hidden himself well.
Just like what Huang Xiaolong had predicted, Tan Zhihui had been hiding in a mountain cave below a nameless peak near the northern part of the Thousand Constellation Country.
The cave that he was hiding in was extremely secluded and concealed from the world. Its surroundings were heavily guarded, and he was confident that even if an ordinary Emperor were to come looking for him, they wouldn’t be able to find him. The only way for them to locate him was to search through the entire mountain range by foot.
Tan Zhihui sat cross-legged at the bottom of the cave as the Glaze Devil Stele hovered in the air before him. It emitted resplendent rays of light.
