Chapter 1302: Medicinal Hall
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Everyone was prepared for a new and dangerous trap to assault them when they stepped across and into the hall. But what greeted them instead was…
A vast expanse of blue skies and white clouds! Verdant grass and lush fauna! The swaying of the flowers and the calls of the birds of spring! A scenery of tranquility and serenity!
That was what greeted them!
“What’s…what’s all this?!” Cried Bai Yunfei.
Was this an illusion? He subconsciously touched the Charm Bracelet and then the Soul Sentinel Scarf on his forehead, but neither gave off any indication that this scenery in front of him was fake.
It was without a doubt real!
“It’s a small pocket dimension, this must be where the Supreme Saint grew his ingredients!!”
While it took Bai Yunfei a while to figure things out, Shen Pojun managed to realize what this was first!
Bai Yunfei spread his soulsense outward to investigate the arrangement of horticulture in front of him. Soon, Bai Yunfei came to understand why Shen Pojun was so happy and fell into a second bout of bewilderment…
“Red sandalwood herbs, melodial twisted vines, nine-leafed flowers, golden mirage apples without stems, rainbow bracken…I’m…I’m…”
One by one, Bai Yunfei listed off the names of the ingredients he knew. Each herb was more stunning than the last. He couldn’t even believe his eyes at the rarity of these herbs anymore.
Every single one of these herbs in this place was…of high-heaven tier status at the very least!!
The only reason he knew of these herbs was because of the Yao clan’s herb compendium he read a while ago. Bai Yunfei was probably the most knowledgeable person about the worth of these herbs—these herbs were all capable of being used to produce high-heaven tier pills!
Herbs of this caliber became scarce on the Qimang Mountains after the Yao clan relocated there. The Soulbeast Forest had precious herbs, yes, but many of them were eaten by the numerous soulbeasts living there as well.
But this place…high-heaven tier herbs were growing all over the place as if they were common grass!
What the heck?!
The Yao clan and soulbeasts combined wouldn’t be able to find this many high-heaven tiers in the Soulbeast Forest even if they combed it for several months!!
The amount of herbs in this one garden would make anyone from the Yao clan go crazy! Even the ordinary soul cultivator, such as Shen Pojun—as strong as he was—, would feel stunned by the amount of herbs here.
The Frostfeather Saint was the oldest of the group and by default the most experienced. Both his eyes lit up at the sight of these herbs, as they were more precious to soulbeasts than they were to soul cultivators. The innate qualities of a soulbeast allowed them to ingest and absorb herbs better than soul cultivators did. Some herbs weren’t even edible for soul cultivators, but not for soulbeasts.
Two thousand years of living (excluding three thousand years of captivity by the Beast Taming School) meant the Frostfeather Saint had a venerable knowledge of the world’s herbs. He was especially moved by this sight since he saw several herbs that’d definitely help him in his training!!
Herbs that could help even a class nine soulbeast train! Those weren’t even findable in the Soulbeast Forest almost!
And that only meant to show how valuable these herbs were!
……
It took a while for the group to get over their shock at the garden and regain their bearings.
Bai Yunfei confirmed after a quick observation that this pocket dimension was about two and a half kilometers in radius. The skies above the garden wasn’t exactly real, but was an imitation made by elemental energy. Aside from the herbs, there was also a miscellaneous amount of other plants, birds, and even insects.
Several parts of the garden were distinctly different to one another. In one area, elemental fire danced and leaped in the air vigorously. In another, elemental wind swirled and gathered in dense amounts. Clearly, these areas were meant to grow herbs of special natures.
“A soul-gathering array!!”
Bai Yunfei exclaimed in shock. It all made sense to Bai Yunfei how the elemental energy could be manipulated by itself now—this was the long-lost soul-gathering array! It was told before that the experts of the past once used these arrays to train faster at half the effort, but apparently they could also be used to grow herbs.
It was also in the compendium that Bai Yunfei heard about the soul-gathering array and its benefits. The Yao clan once had such an array, but it was lost due to the passage of time.
Needless to say, the Supreme Saint was without a doubt an expert on arrays. All the previous barriers, traps, and other formations was proof of that.
……
“This is a ‘medicinal hall’…our previous Supreme Saint was quite the collector of medicinal herbs it seems. It boggles the mind to see such a tremendous amount…”
Shen Pojun sighed after his shock wore off, “It’s also clear to see that the Dragon Saint King, the Saint of Fate, Gu Lianhun, and Ye Feixuan didn’t find this place. We are quite fortunate…”
The amount of herbs here was enough to help dozens of Soul Emperors with their training without a problem. An Early-stage Soul Saint could become a Mid-stage Soul Saint with plenty of herbs to spare even. If the Yao clan were here, they’d easily be able to make multiple high-quality pills to help one train.
There was no talk about how to best split the ‘loot’. After careful considerations, the entire group decided the ‘best’ thing to do was move the entire garden!!
It was a tiny pocket dimension. The two Saints could easily ‘excavate’ the entire earth beneath the garden and move it into the Core World.
Which is what they did.
After all of it was moved into the Core World, Bai Yunfei managed to have the Yao clan set to processing the materials and turn into pills. With Bai Yunfei as the pivotal member in all this, everyone else was confident that they’d each get their fair share without worrying another might take more.
“What…what a haul!!!”
Bai Yunfei laughed to himself after the entire garden was gone into the Core World.
With this, they’d be walking away with quite the prize even if they didn’t manage to get the Supreme Saint’s Inheritance.
And now that everything was secured, the group headed back the way they came to continue onward.
……
Meanwhile, Shangguan Xiongyan’s group was traveling in the footsteps of Bai Yunfei’s group. They were just about half a day’s travel behind.
“Our decision to wait and let them open the path was the correct one…we’ll be able to enjoy a safe path forward until they reach Gu Lianhun.”
Shangguan Xiongyan laughed as they walked. His eyes were still rooted to the mirror in his head. They were all enjoying a nice and safe walk through the halls after Shen Pojun and the Frostfeather Saint cleared out the traps for them. And because they were able to walk unimpeded while the group ahead had to disarm the traps and barriers, the distance between them was rapidly shrinking.
“Oh? A corner?”
It wasn’t long before they came across the fork in the road where one pathway led to the herb garden. Having a fork in the road when there never was one earlier made the three Saints suspicious. Instead of continuing forward, they decided to bear right and head down that path.
Unfortunately, there was nothing left when they reached the garden. Nothing but dirt. Not even a blade of grass could be seen.
Without a prize to be found, the group decided to return back to the proper path and follow after Bai Yunfei again.
“Hm? Something’s not right! They’ve stopped for a whole minute now! It’s even longer than before!”
Shangguan Xiongyan suddenly cried out to the others.
“What?!” Gu Jimie stopped, “Did they come across a powerful barrier? Or…did they perhaps meet my teacher?!”
They immediately turned to the Abyssal Snake Saint.
The soulbeast’s eyebrows furrowed. “Gu Lianhun is close, I can sense him, but not speak. I do not think he is able to sense me, however…otherwise, I do not sense any battle nearby. He and the Frostfeather Saint shouldn’t be fighting at the very least, but I belie—hm?! Something’s wrong!
“Gu Lianhun’s aura is fluctuating! He’s injured? He’s come across an enemy! A battle is starting!”
“What?!”
Gu Jimie roared, “Then what are we waiting for? We have to help him!!”
Then before Shangguan Xiongyan could direct him, Gu Jimie shot off down the path ahead of them.
Shangguan Xiongyan and the Abyssal Snake Saint shared looks with one another before chasing after Gu Jimie…
