Chapter 519: Not Looking Good (1/2)

“So many spiritual herbs!”

“The spiritual energy here is so abundant! It is several times thicker compared to the back mountains within our sect.”

“I see a 6,000-year-old spiritual herb.”

Even before landing, Chen Feng and the others had already begun exclaiming. They had only just emerged from the miasmic zone not too long ago. To suddenly come across a place with such a high concentration of spiritual energy was a surprise to them.

“There are actually so many spiritual herbs here! The harvest we’ll get this time around is just too big. Looks like it won’t take long before I assail the Human Immortal stage.” After stepping on the ground, Lei Feng picked up a 5,000-year-old spiritual herb and said smilingly.

“If so, let’s not tarry. Hurry up and take action.”

Chen Feng released the metal combat puppet. At that moment, Chen Feng was feeling regretful. He then resolved to put aside some time to craft out some more of the metal puppets. Doing so would help him save time, a considerable amount of time. Take their current situation for example. Although the rate at which the metal puppet was collecting the spiritual herbs was not fast, it did not stop at all as it continued following Chen Feng’s instructions to pick the spiritual herbs.

“Everyone, be careful. For there to be so many spiritual herbs here, there must surely be dangers here as well. I wonder, what level will the Great Yao here be at?”

While picking up the spiritual herbs there, Chen Feng was also cautiously inspecting their surroundings.

“Ha ha! This is an 8,000-year-old Fire Condensation Flower. It has already cultivated out its own spirit. A pity, it cannot move too far away from its main body.” Mu Qingfeng happily picked up a half-chi-long herb spirit, which he then shoved into a fiery-red spiritual herb. Due to that, the spiritual herb instantly radiated a formidable, fiery light. Although the spiritual herb had already formed its own herb spirit, Chen Feng knew that its body was still incapable of transforming. Add the fact that it was lacking a proper method of cultivation into the equation, it could only become an average herb spirit.

“I also found a 7,000-year-old Solitary Dragon Ginseng. A pity, the herb spirit it formed is too weak.”

“I wonder, are there any spiritual herbs that are over 10,000 years old? Just one is enough for me to level up.”

Suddenly, the rate at which Chen Feng was collecting the spiritual herbs slowed. He instead began walking around, seemingly searching for something.

“Junior Brother Chen, are you all right?” Zhang Xuanjin asked curiously.

“I’m fine.” Chen Feng waved his hand. Next, he unleashed a palm strike at the ground. Instantly, cracks spread out across the hard ground and streams of thick spiritual energy sprayed out from the cracks.

“As expected, it is due to this.” Chen Feng nodded and he attacked again, causing the cracks on the ground to grow bigger and deeper. Next, he channelled the Heavengulping Absorption Technique as he grasped at the cracks on the ground. Next, wisps of water vapour flowed out from the ground to form a ball of water, which then fell into Chen Feng’s hand.

It's true. I was wondering why there are so many spiritual herbs here. So, the spiritual energy in the air is only one reason. The other reason is the existence of a spiritual fountain beneath the ground. Though, I wonder if the spiritual fountain below is part of the massive spirit stone mine? Chen Feng contemplated.

“There is a spiritual fountain beneath the ground!” Seeing Chen Feng’s actions, Lei Feng was quick to understand.

“Yes. The spiritual herbs here could not have grown so well otherwise.” Chen Feng increased the rate at which he was absorbing the water. Streams of spiritual liquid flowed continuously into the Longevity Tower. Chen Feng created a pool beside the herbal fields and directed the spiritual liquid into the pool to create a spiritual pool.

“Ha ha! There are so many spiritual herbs here!”

As Chen Feng’s team was collecting the spiritual herbs, Yang Jitian and the others flew over. Although they were shocked to see Chen Feng’s team, they were quickly attracted by the spiritual herbs there. The spiritual herbs there, thousands of years old, were very attractive for cultivators who had yet to cultivate up to the Human Immortal stage.

“Yang Jitian and the others have come. They are actually so fast.”

“What do we do? There are so many spiritual herbs still.” Zhang Xuanjin and Mu Qingfeng exchanged glances. They had a foreboding sensation about their situation. Additionally, it would be distressing if the spiritual herbs end up getting taken away by the other cultivators.

Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou!

Yang Jitian waved his hand, firing out several sword beams, which stabbed into the ground to encircle a stretch of thriving spiritual herbs.

“Those spiritual herbs are mine! Whoever dares collect them will face death!” Yang Jitian said with an overbearing tone.

The faces on Lei Feng and the others grew ugly to behold. There were at least a thousand spiritual herbs in the circle that Yang Jitian had created and at least hundreds that were over 5,000 years old. The spiritual herbs there could be said to be the best amongst all the spiritual herbs available.
