Divine Valley and Mystical Medicine
When such news came from the divine valley, it immediately triggered a commotion in the Medicine Capital. The streets were in an uproar, and everyone had fervent gazes.
What kind of precious land was that? When they first discovered it, they already knew that it was definitely extraordinary. There were formations everywhere, protecting a stalk of divine precious medicine. They never expected that it might be the place where the True Phoenix fell. That was incredible!
It was as important as discovering the Kun Peng nest because they were both within the Vicious Ten. Back then, no one knew just how many people died in the battle of the Northern Sea. Now that the True Phoenix nest suddenly appeared in the wasteland region, it naturally shook the world.
“That shouldn’t be the case. Even though there are rumors that the True Phoenix shed its blood in this region, its inheritance didn’t stay here. What’s going on with that divine valley?”
“Well, the True Phoenix Bone was only a possibility. It’s not confirmed yet. Perhaps it is the remains of another divine bird.”
On the streets, a few experts were discussing among themselves.
The carriage that stopped on the road immediately soared into the sky, quickly disappearing into the distance.
Soon afterward, streak after streak of divine rainbows tore through the sky, disappearing into the horizon. All of them were leaving. Their destination was clearly that divine valley!
That valiant middle-aged man’s expression changed because the Divine Medicine Sect’s supreme elder didn’t pay this matter any attention before taking off. They were clearly going to seize the treasure.
He hesitated. Should he hurry back or not? Even though there were countless formations in that divine valley, the phoenix bone had already been discovered in the outer region, so there should be a great opportunity as well.
“Hurry and return my precious bone, or else I won’t be so polite!” The middle-aged man threatened Shi Hao, killing intent faintly appearing in his eyes.
Even though Shi Hao’s hands were behind his back, symbols flickered on his right palm. Without a sound, he picked up a pitch-black bone from the stall and handed it over. “You’re completely unreasonable. What a bully! Take it! It’s yours!”
A’de hurried forward and took it.
However, he was a bit suspicious. Just now, that pile of things was extremely messy, so he didn’t remember everything clearly. He only remembered that there was a pitch-black bone but wasn’t sure if it was the one in front of him.
As for the middle-aged man, he didn’t pay too much attention to it before either and could only remember the general appearance of that bone. He was quite doubtful and carefully sensed it before discovering that it was just an ordinary bone.
“Something’s not right! Mine is a piece of divine bird bone. Hand it over!” The middle-aged man’s eyes glinted, killing intent surging.
“You sold a piece of lousy bone, yet you wanted it back as soon as you sold it. That’s already unfair, and you want me to give you a piece of divine bone. Are you trying to extort me? Do you think I’m easy to bully?” Shi Hao’s face fell.
The middle-aged man hesitated. He also felt like he might have made a mistake. The black bone he obtained should be this piece, not some true phoenix bone. It seemed like he was overthinking it.
“Brat, consider yourself lucky. I have urgent matters to attend to right now, so I won’t bicker with you.” The middle-aged man was an expert who had always lived in seclusion in the Medicine Capital. Now, he tore through the air to search for his natural luck.
The Rainbow Luan was confused and said, “Why are you being so polite with him? Just get rid of him!”
Shi Hao shook his head and said, “Even though he’s a vicious person, killing him like this isn’t a good idea. It’ll draw the attention of many people in the Medicine Capital.”
Right now, he didn’t want to draw attention because he heard about the divine valley’s matters. He wanted to go over and take a look. If many people knew that he was an expert, then that wouldn’t be good for him.
This time, when they came to the Medicine Capital, they all paid special attention to concealing their true identities to avoid being targeted.
“Then let’s hurry on our way as well. Let’s take a look. We can’t get anything if we’re late,” The big red bird said excitedly. It wanted to take action right away.
At this moment, many precious artifacts rose into the air and flew into the distance. They also moved, following these cultivators without drawing any attention.
After traveling several hundred miles, they arrived at the depths of a mountain range. From the distance, they could see immortal energy surging. All types of symbols shone brilliantly, surrounding the valley.
“What a good place! One look and you can tell that this is an ancient divine dwelling. There are extraordinary formations here,” the Nine-Headed Lion said in amazement.
One didn’t need to get close to feel that type of spirituality. The spiritual essence that seeped out from the great formation was so thick that it couldn’t be dissolved. Even normal medicinal herbs that had undergone endless years of nourishment would most likely develop intelligence.
The stalk of wondrous medicine that was specially protected was definitely a divine treasure, at the very least a holy medicine.
There were many creatures from all types of races. They normally lived in the Medicine Capital. They were all capable cultivators because right now, normal people couldn’t approach the divine valley.
“If the supreme experts hadn’t sealed up the mountain to protect themselves, this valley would have long been grazed to the ground. There wouldn’t be any creatures left,” Huo Ling’er said.
They knew well just how terrifying the fighting strength of experts at that level was!
“These symbols are so mysterious. They’re as powerful as those in my clan’s divine mountain.” Yun Xi frowned, feeling deeply shocked. What kind of place was this exactly? Did one of the Vicious Ten really die here?
“Let’s give it a try as well, see if we can break into the depths of the valley,” the sable said, its eyes burning with passion.
Shi Hao stopped them and used the dual-pupils to examine the place. He said seriously, “I saw at least a hundred formations. They are too complex and are all connected together, but they also look like an ancient formation. Forget about us, even supreme experts would find it difficult to break through.”
He was extremely shocked. This place was too mysterious. How could there be such terrifying symbols? It looked divine and auspicious, but as long as one entered, they would definitely die.
No wonder the Medicine Capital’s experts were helpless, finding it difficult to break through in the past few days.
The valley entrance was dyed red by blood. Quite a few people died there, and the nearby ground was covered by holes that were over a hundred meters deep. It was clear that some damaged magical artifacts and bone pieces were dug out from this place.
“Then what should we do? Are we supposed to just watch helplessly?” The big red bird didn’t want to be stopped here.
“This might be something left behind by a heavenly deity. If the ancestors of the various races of the Archaic Divine Mountains come back to life, perhaps only then can this place be broken through,” Yun Xi said.
She had the right to speak because of where she came from. She was fully aware of how terrifying these ancient symbols were. Even though some of her clan’s ancient formations were damaged, they still had this type of aura.
“Heavenly deities?!” The Nine-Headed Lion and the others sucked in cold breaths of air.
In the present world, no one could break through this formation.
“It might even be something left behind by the Vicious Ten,” Yun Xi added.
When she said those words, everyone became eager. The formation left behind by the Vicious Ten was protecting a stalk of wondrous medicine. Would it allow one to ascend in broad daylight?
Even though they couldn’t break through the formation, they could still fly high into the sky to observe it. However, when they arrived above, they discovered that there weren’t many people up there.
“Hey, I can’t see it. There’s only a verdant valley.” They were surprised.
When he looked down, immortal energy surged in an elegant way. It was clearly divine earth. However, when they arrived in the sky, they discovered that the mountain range was green and verdant, and there was nothing unusual about it.
That valley was like ordinary land.
“It’s so strange. The scenes we see in different places are all different. There’s obviously a space restriction formation that distorts the void. If we enter rashly, we’ll be torn to pieces by the void cracks.”
Everyone descended and looked into the valley. They finally saw some hazy scenes. There seemed to be quite a few immortal palaces that were hidden in the mist.
“There is a huge rock, and some great figures are watching from above,” the Flame Crow said.
Quite a few people were there, waiting for the great figures to leave. They hoped that they could stand on the enormous rock platform and look into the valley to see the truth.
Shi Hao asked around and learned that it was the only place where he could see the wondrous medicines in the valley. It was a platform, from where he could vaguely see divine projections.
“This divine valley has already been hidden for endless years, and it’s difficult to break through with just human strength. Is it possible that because the divine precious medicine inside has matured, this valley is also going to appear in this world?” The Nine-Headed Lion frowned. It was clear that he had heard some legends.
There were some ancient caves that couldn’t be sealed forever. Sooner or later, they would reappear in this world, but there were some special conditions that were needed to trigger them.
“Who saw the so-called True Phoenix Bone?” A great figure asked. This was an elder who was half a step away from becoming a supreme expert. He was releasing a wave of medicinal fragrance.
“Senior from the Divine Medicine Sect, I dug up a piece.” Someone really stood out and didn’t hide his findings. It was a youngster because he knew that with his cultivation, he couldn’t protect that bone.
“Let me take a look.” Divine Medicine Sect’s supreme elder didn’t hold back.
Everyone looked in that direction. Even Shi Hao and the others paid close attention, wishing to see if it really was the legendary phoenix bone.
“Hey, this is a divine bird bone.” Besides the Divine Medicine Sect’s grand elder, there were a few other people. They were all extremely powerful, and they watched together.
They weren’t sure that it was a phoenix bone, but they were sure that it was the remains of a heavenly-ranked divine bird. It was a pity that it didn’t contain an important part of the original symbols. Moreover, the undying divine essence within had pretty much all been lost.
“What a formidable valley. Even a heavenly-ranked divine bird fell here. I’m impressed!”
In the end, several great figures walked off that enormous stone platform because they understood that the divine valley hadn’t opened yet. Right now, they definitely couldn’t break through the gate.
In that instant, everyone swarmed over, looking into the valley.
Shi Hao and the others waited for a long time. Only when the crowd gradually scattered did they ascend.
“It really is a strange place. I can’t see through the center of the formation in other places, but I can see it here.” The Rainbow Luan was bewildered.
One could vaguely see a plant that was suffused with divine splendor. It was as if stellar streams surrounded it, making it hazy and indistinct. One could even vaguely smell a hint of fragrance.
“It’s good stuff. There are at least ten miles between us. Moreover, it is sealed by layers of great formations, yet there is still a trace of fragrance. That wondrous medicine is formidable. Could it be the wasteland region’s best divine precious medicine?!” The Nine-Headed Lion said.
Shi Hao naturally used the dual-pupils to carefully examine it. He could see it far more clearly than normal people. It was a small tree that was only a foot tall. There was a shocking scene there.
He simply couldn’t believe what he was seeing. In the hazy white immortal mist, the flowers on that small tree turned into a rain of light, gathering together. It then turned into a fist-sized little figure, who was jumping about.
On the small tree, there were a total of three flowers. One of them also turned into a rain of light, and then it condensed into a magical artifact. It was extremely resplendent and was wrapped within a sphere of light.
Even the dual-pupil couldn’t see it clearly. It was like a pagoda, a furnace, or a cauldron. It seemed to be constantly changing.
As for the third flower, it didn’t move at all. It stayed still on that small tree.
