Chapter 366: The Wood Clan’s Void-Refining Monk is attacking!

Just when Xiang Zhili was obsessed with his Red Soul Flower, Old Monster Feng had already set his fiery eyes on other spiritual medicines.

His figure flashed quickly and he came to a herb with lush branches and leaves that looked like a phoenix spreading its wings, and muttered to himself:
"Flying Phoenix Grass is a rare spiritual medicine among the human race. It is rumored that it contains a trace of the power of the Heavenly Phoenix. The marrow cleansing and bone strengthening pills made from it can strengthen the body of cultivators. For this reason, it is widely sought after by body-refining cultivators."

Then, Old Monster Feng flashed again, and said in surprise, "Huimi Fruit, I remember using it to refine the Soul Sealing Pill that improves the Divine Transformation Cultivation. A bottle of ten pills can also be sold for hundreds of thousands of high-level spirit stones. I didn't expect that there are so many precious spirit medicines planted in the medicine garden. This time I'm going to make a fortune..."

Indeed, there are a lot of spiritual medicines here, at least thousands of them.

Relying on his experience with spiritual medicines in the human world, Qi Yuan could only barely recognize a small number of spiritual herbs. For the vast majority of the remaining spiritual medicines, he was seeing them for the first time.

However, based on their rich and dense scent, he knew in his heart that the nature of the spiritual medicine was extraordinary, and there were very few ordinary spiritual medicines planted in the medicine garden.

"You two, I have already transplanted the red soul flowers. Let's divide the remaining precious spiritual herbs in the medicine garden equally." Xiang Zhili's figure suddenly floated over and said with a relaxed look on his face.

The goal of his trip had been achieved, and half of his worries were gone, so he was naturally much happier.

Qi Yuan was silent for a while and said, "I have no problem with this distribution, but I hope that one or two plants of each spiritual medicine will be allocated to avoid missing any at a critical moment."

With the Chaos Cauldron to cultivate spiritual herbs, he did not ask for more. Instead, he wanted to expand the types of spiritual herbs so that he would not be restricted when refining pills.

"Friend Qi, what you said makes sense. I agree with you." Old Monster Feng said with a look of delight on his face.

Xiang Zhili's green eyes turned and he nodded, "Okay, let's divide it this way. Everyone will get a spiritual herb with different medicinal properties. It's getting late. We should transplant all the spiritual herbs as soon as possible and leave this troubled place."

Qi Yuan had no objection to this and nodded slightly in response.

The longer you stay in the Mu tribe’s territory, the more dangerous it will be. The best strategy is to return to Tianyuan City as quickly as possible.

Afterwards, the three of them divided the work clearly and took out the jade box and transplanted these precious elixirs.

Among them were dozens of rare spiritual medicines. Qi Yuan packed them into the box with the roots and soil, and pasted a talisman with a white background and red patterns on it to prevent the medicinal power from leaking out.

……

In the cloudless sky, a pockmarked monk from the Wood Clan was flying leisurely back to his clan.

Ever since he followed Young Master Fei to open up a secret spiritual medicine garden, the resources for cultivation he obtained have increased significantly.

After thousands of years, his own cultivation level has opened up a certain gap compared to the cultivators of the same level and clan. Then he was cultivated by the elders of the clan and his status increased.

Suddenly, three strong auras passed by. Among them was a big man in a purple robe with an orange-yellow belt around his waist. His cultivation seemed to have reached the initial stage of refining emptiness.

The tribesmen with purple belts following on both sides are at the Spirit Transformation Stage.

Xue Kui?

The purple-robed man was slightly surprised, his face immediately darkened, and he pressed his mighty aura towards his target, shouting, "Xue Kui, come here."

Oh no, it’s Master Fei’s mortal enemy, Lord Sha Jue. If he knows the location of the secret spiritual medicine garden, he will definitely tell the elders of the clan. By then, it will not be an exaggeration to say that a disaster is imminent.

The pockmarked monk's expression suddenly changed drastically, and he flew over obediently, cupping his hands and smiling, "It turned out to be Master Sha Jue. I was distracted just now, so I didn't notice you passing by. To express my apology, I will go back to my clan and prepare a good gift for you."

"Huh? You, Master Fei's dead dog, now that the sun is rising from the west, have you remembered to give me a gift?" The purple-robed man said with a sinister laugh.

When the pockmarked monk heard this, he dared not speak but put on a smile and said, "Master Sha, you are too kind. With your status, it is only natural for a junior to give you a gift. I was ignorant before, so I neglected the etiquette. I will make up for it once I return to the clan."

Pooh!
As soon as he got back to the tribe, he immediately hugged the big man and would not give a single hair to the purple-robed man.

Sha Jue was not at all tempted by the gift. He had received a report long ago that Young Master Fei was misappropriating the clan's resources. However, since the young master's grandfather was a silver-belt cultivator in the fusion stage and there was no evidence, the matter had been suppressed.

Unexpectedly, today, he accepted the order of the elders and went to the Yaksha tribe to discuss some trade matters. He happened to meet Xue Kui on the road, and then he saw that his expression was slightly wrong. He remembered that the other party was coming from the Biyuantan, and a certain idea gradually became clear...

Master Fei! Master Fei, I finally caught you. Even if you have your grandfather's protection, you will not be able to escape punishment.

"Tell me, is the spiritual medicine garden that Master Fei secretly opened up located in the Biyuan Pond?"

“Lord Sha, why do you say that?” Xue Kui’s face trembled, but he quickly calmed down and responded.

Sha Jue narrowed his purple eyes. How could he hide the change in the opponent's expression? The spiritual power of the Void Refining Stage shrouded the target and said viciously:
"Don't think that I don't know about Master Fei's dirty deeds. He is now in seclusion and has no time to care about you. I will directly search your soul to get the evidence I want, which will be enough to defend myself in front of the elders later."

"But it will be hard for you, and you will have wasted your life. I heard that you recently married a beautiful girl. I don't mind helping you take care of her."

Before he could finish his words, his two purple-belt subordinates blocked Xue Kui's retreat, preventing him from escaping.

"you……"

Xue Kui's face flushed red as anger rushed to his head. He wanted to curse Sha Jue for being shameless, but reason told him that he couldn't do that, otherwise he would suffer the consequences.

After all, he had taken care of many widows of his deceased compatriots, so he didn't have the confidence to refute.

When a person dies, it is like the extinguishing of a light. Even if he does not accept the widows of his good brothers, they will throw themselves into the arms of a monk in the clan in order to practice in this cruel world.

"Hmm? Do you want to scold me, or do you want to tell me the truth?" Sha Jue's expression was indifferent, his palms glowing with a dark green light, ready to search the soul at any time.

If it were another situation, even if he was an orange-yellow belt, he would not have the right to openly attack his own people, otherwise he would be severely punished.

On the contrary, if fellow monks commit heinous crimes, if we can find irrefutable evidence in one fell swoop, it would be able to offset the side effects of harming our own people.

Is it a serious crime to secretly embezzle the cultivation resources of the clan? After so many years of operation, he didn't believe that Master Fei would only make a small profit.

There are many people in the clan who are waiting for the elixir to help them break through. Once this matter gets out, it will definitely cause huge public outrage.

By then, the elders in the fusion stage will not be able to save face and will deliberately favor the person involved.

"three…"

"two…"

"I say, Lord Sha, please show mercy."

Xue Kui's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He thought that the other party was a man of his word. In order to survive, he stopped keeping his mouth shut and said, "Master Fei's secret spiritual medicine garden is indeed at the Biyuan Pond. As long as Master Sha is willing to protect me, I will follow your instructions on everything."

"Haha, he who knows the times is a hero. Tell the elders the truth when they ask you questions. I will certainly not stand idly by and will speak up to defend you." Sha Jue was shocked, and his joy was revealed uncontrollably. He secretly withdrew his magic power and released his spiritual might.

He immediately ordered Xue Kui to lead the way, as he had no intention of going to the Yaksha tribe.

Instead, take care of the important things at hand first.

Biyuan Pond, Spiritual Medicine Garden. After half a day of transplanting, all the spiritual medicines in the garden had been taken by Qi Yuan and the other two, and they were very satisfied with the harvest.

There was only a skinny black wooden stick left, which placed them in a dilemma.

This wooden stick is only half a meter high, thin and black, and looks lifeless. It has neither branching branches nor any green buds, just like a dead elixir.

If it was dead, why didn't the Wood Clan cultivators eradicate it? Why did it stay in the most fertile spiritual soil, alone?

"I have checked it with my spiritual power no less than three times. Apart from the fact that the spiritual power is extremely weak, I really didn't find anything else." Old Monster Feng said, shaking his head helplessly.

The spiritual world is so vast compared to the human world, and the spiritual medicines produced there are naturally countless. It is not surprising that he is unable to see through them.

Xiang Zhili said, "Why don't we break it into three parts?"

"No, the black branch's vitality is very weak. It might die immediately." Old Monster Feng said slowly.

Qi Yuan's eyes flickered. Although he couldn't tell the origin of the black branch, with the Chaos Cauldron in hand, there was no spiritual plant he couldn't save. He said, "How about this, I'll allocate some spiritual stones to you, and the black branch will be mine?"

This…

Xiang Zhili and the other man looked thoughtful. This black branch seemed to be no simple matter, but they were also at a loss. Instead of trying so hard to save it, they might as well exchange it for some spirit stones to buy spiritual objects.

From resuscitation to nurturing to maturity, no one can guarantee how much the cost will be.

Then Xiang Zhili and the other person agreed, took the high-priced spirit stones from Qi Yuan, and the black branch also fell into their hands.

Qi Yuan took a quick look at the skinny Heizhi, then put it into the storage bracelet and said, "We should leave here without further delay."

"Um…"

Xiang Zhili nodded slightly, turned around and flew towards the exit.

Qi Yuan and Old Monster Feng simultaneously transformed into lights and followed. When leaving, he did not forget the storage bracelets of the two Wood Clan monks. He stripped them naked and sealed their magic power.

Suddenly, three figures emerged from the black water pool filled with gusts of cold wind.

It was Qi Yuan and the other three.

"Not good, there are a Nascent Soul cultivator and several Spiritual Transformation cultivators nearby, and they are rushing towards this side." Qi Yuan's expression changed instantly, and using the spiritual sense of the early Nascent Soul stage, he immediately discovered the traces of Sha Jue and the others.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, he didn't want to use the interface power of the small world to deal with a cultivator who was at a higher level.

In addition to consuming the origin of the new world, using the power of the interface also risks exposing the Chaos Cauldron.

He couldn't control the water bell, and the others who knew about the Chaos Cauldron were also firmly gathered around him.

Although Xiang Zhili and his companions guessed that he was carrying a valuable treasure, they had sneaked into the spirit world early, so they received less information.

The disappearance of Nangong Wan and other beauties in the human world would naturally arouse suspicion among the cultivators in the lower world.

However, if they want to sneak into the spirit world, they need the strength of the Spirit Transformation Stage to be qualified to contend with the space storm, and they also need to refine a few powerful treasures to increase their survival rate.

In this way, for at least four or five hundred years, the cultivators from the lower world will not be able to escape into the space nodes. This time difference is enough for Qi Yuan to improve his cultivation a lot, so that he can have the confidence to deal with emergencies.

Not to mention, he might not be in the Three Realms and Seven Lands by then.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Zhili and the other man's faces turned very ugly. Everything was going so smoothly before, but now they had to suffer such misfortune?

Could it be that the two Wood Clan monks in the spiritual medicine garden used some strange means to tip off?

How could the three of them tied together be a match for someone in the Nascent Soul stage? Of course they had to run away immediately.

Old Monster Feng raised his hands, a flash of light appeared on his back, and he suddenly put on a dark purple cloak. Then his figure disappeared and he fled at an astonishing speed.

Xiang Zhili was not to be outdone, and with a painful look on his face, he offered up a wind-attributed talisman. The emerald green runes on it were quite profound, and it seemed that its power was extraordinary.

The emerald green talisman flashed slightly and transformed into a five-meter-long green wind, which then wrapped around his body and turned into a small black dot in the blink of an eye.

"You old ghost, so it was just for this talisman that you carried out an escape behind my back last time?" Old Monster Feng suddenly noticed someone coming quickly behind him, and turned around to say teasingly.

Xiang Zhili, who was wrapped in the green wind, snorted coldly and did not answer Old Monster Feng. It was important not to escape for the moment, so why did he want to stop and chat?
At this moment, a streak of light with an even more astonishing speed instantly surpassed the two of them and then left them far behind.

A pair of green wings about ten feet long appeared on Qi Yuan's back. The gorgeous green feathers exuded an extremely strong wind-attributed aura.

With just a slight flap of its wings, Kunpeng's spirit body would burst out with an extremely astonishing speed, as if soaring up to 90,000 miles.

"It's Junior Brother Qi/Fellow Daoist Qi."

Xiang Zhili and the other man said in shock at the same time.

At the moment when the three men showed their magical powers and left, Sha Jue and his companions landed quickly. Naturally, he could not hide the noise of Qi Yuan and the others leaving from his eyes.

“Something bad has happened. The secret spiritual medicine garden has been invaded by outsiders. There is a branch of our clan’s sacred black spirit tree in it. If it falls into the hands of others, I, Xue, will be to blame.” Xue Kui said with a frightened look on his face.

The spiritual flowers bred by this black sacred tree have extraordinary healing effects. It is said that it can even have a good therapeutic effect on the injuries of Mahayana monks.

Upon hearing this, Sha Jue grabbed Xue Kui by the collar and shouted, "What? Why didn't you tell me earlier that there was a branch of our clan's sacred tree in the spiritual medicine garden?"

Xue Kui opened his mouth, but thought that any excuse he made would be futile and powerless, so he gave up immediately.

snort!
Sha Jue threw the man in his hand away fiercely. There were three people on the other side, so it was necessary to find out who was carrying the branch of the Black Spirit Holy Tree.

He backhandedly offered up a tortoise shell magic treasure, the grayish-white exterior of which was covered with numerous crisscrossing cracks, as if it would break into countless pieces at any time.

He threw in three black copper coins that were round on the outside and square on the inside, suddenly inputted his magic power, and silently recited an unknown formula.

The tortoise shell magic treasure immediately emitted a dazzling black light, and the main body began to shake at a distance. After a clang, three black copper coins fell out.

I saw that their positions corresponded to Qi Yuan and the other two, without any mistake. Two of them were dim, and one was shining with a bright black glow.

"Fortunately, I brought the Heaven-Questioning Turtle Spirit Treasure with me to calculate the whereabouts of the Black Spirit Sacred Tree, otherwise I would have missed this great opportunity."

Sha Jue's face was secretly proud. His burly body flashed and turned into a startling rainbow and suddenly chased after him.
