The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 220
Chapter 220 Millennium Medicinal Garden
Although the dagger’s spirituality had almost been wiped out by time, it was still intact in appearance. This was a useful item.
Spiritual artifacts were usually made of precious materials and were extremely strong. Even if they truly lost their spirituality, only an empty shell was left. It was still slightly stronger than a top-grade true artifact.
If he took it back and nourished it properly, perhaps he would be able to regrow his complete spirituality in the future. Wouldn’t it become a spirit artifact at that time?
Li Qing put the dagger into his interspatial ring and continued to search the hall. In the end, he found two weapons in the corner that were faintly spiritual.
These two weapons were intact, and there was a trace of spirituality in them. They were very similar to the dagger, and they were obviously two more spirit weapons.
After putting these two weapons into the spatial ring, it could be considered to be quite a harvest. Although it was far from what he had imagined, it wasn’t empty-handed at the very least.
There was nothing good left here. It was a pile of scrap metal. After carefully circling around for another two times, Li Qing left this place without finding anything else.
Outside, he chose another path and headed for another building.
There are two other enemies in the ruins. We can’t waste time. If they were a step too late, they might have looted all the treasures.
Of course, the road was extremely dangerous. All sorts of mechanisms were attacking this foreign guest. However, under Li Qing’s careful precautions, the mechanisms here could no longer pose much of a threat.
In addition, he held the Yin Yang Token in his hand, and the powerful restrictions in the ruins would not be activated against him. Generally speaking, it was quite safe.
He walked forward with great difficulty and soon arrived at the end of the road.
In front of him was actually a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, as if it was an Outer World Immortal Realm, filled with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Taking a deep breath, the air was fresh, and a faint medicinal fragrance floated in the air.
The ground was covered with all sorts of weeds. It seemed to be a bit desolate. Obviously, no one had been here for a long time.
As he approached, he saw a wooden door surrounded by a huge fence. It looked like a small farmyard, but the area was countless times larger.
“This should be the herb garden.” He guessed in his heart. The fence outside looked very fragile, but there was a faint glow. It should be filled with all kinds of powerful restrictions, and it couldn’t be trespassed randomly.
The spiritual energy here was too abundant, and it felt very different from other places. Moreover, there was a faint medicinal fragrance in the air, and most likely, it was a medicinal garden.
In the topography of Wan Chuan Gui Hai, apart from the most central location, there might also be other spiritual energy gathering centers. This was caused by a local collision during the convergence of the Spiritual Energy Tide.
The herb garden in front of him should be a small spiritual energy center. It gathered dense spiritual energy, and the medicinal ingredients inside must be very rich.
Most importantly, no one had visited this ruin for such a long time, and it had grown for so many years. It was hard to imagine how old the medicinal ingredients inside were.
The older the medicinal ingredients were, the more precious they would become.
The wooden door wasn’t closed. Li Qing gently pushed it open. When he walked in, he saw that it was filled with all kinds of plants. There were many kinds of plants, and they were all gathered together in a dense pile.
If he didn’t look carefully, he probably wouldn’t be able to recognize which plant it was, let alone find precious medicinal ingredients from it.
This matter tested one’s eyesight. After all, if it weren’t for the fact that a professional alchemist didn’t possess a rich level of knowledge, he probably wouldn’t even be able to recognize most of the medicinal ingredients, so how could he be able to recognize them in the weeds?
“Someone has come!” He couldn’t help but frown. He saw traces of human trampling in the bushes. Moreover, this mark was still new. Obviously, it was left not long ago, so it shouldn’t have gone far.
There were several places where the medicinal ingredients had already been picked, leaving behind a small pit of mud on the ground. However, most of this place was still intact, and the medicinal ingredients were unharvested.
Evidently, the other party was not a professional alchemist. He did not recognize too many medicinal ingredients and chose only a few that were easy to identify. He picked them and immediately left.
Li Qing went forward to pick the medicinal ingredients. He walked into the weeds and looked carefully.
“Seven Leaves Lotus!”
In front of him, there was a lotus flower with seven leaves in full bloom, sparkling and translucent. This kind of medicinal material was extremely precious. It would take a hundred years to grow a leaf, and it would take seven hundred years for it to mature. It was rare in the world. I didn’t expect to encounter him here. My luck is really good.
“Purple Pill Luo!” A purple flower appeared in front of them. It was also an extremely precious item, making people feel pleasantly surprised.
Next, all sorts of odd herbs were scattered one after another, appearing vaguely in the weeds. Most of them weren’t inferior to the Seven Leaf Lotus in value.
As a senior alchemist, Li Qing had studied the Medicine King’s Ceremony. His knowledge was very rich, so he recognized all of these things.
He had only seen many medicinal ingredients from books, but he had never seen any physical objects. Because they were too precious, it was rare to see them. Today, he had encountered all these medicinal ingredients and gained some experience.
“Bai Se Hua!”
“Eulaliopsis longissima!”
…
Along the way, spiritual herbs continued to be collected, and Li Qing was very happy to pick them.
This spiritual land had existed for so many years, and no one had stepped foot in it. There were simply too many medicinal herbs bred in it. Almost every few meters, there was one, dazzling.
He didn’t dare to be distracted in the slightest, fearing that if he missed one or two of them, he would suffer a huge loss.
After two hours of harvesting, he finally picked all the medicinal ingredients here and didn’t miss any more.
…
The area Li Qing was in was actually only the periphery of the herb garden. There was still a large space inside. It was obviously the core area of the herb garden.
The medicinal herbs in the periphery alone could reach such a precious level, and the value of the medicinal herbs in the core medicinal garden could be imagined.
It could be imagined that the most precious thing must be planted in the center. This made him look forward to it.
“This trip wasn’t in vain!”
After Li Qing finished collecting the medicinal ingredients, a trace of joy appeared on his face. Previously, in the Weapons Hall, most of the weapons had already decayed and had almost returned empty-handed, causing him to feel somewhat frustrated.
How could there be so many precious things like this herb garden?
After walking for several hundred meters, a black and white light shield appeared in front of him. Within the light shield, black and white gas was circulating. The light seemed to have been twisted, and the situation inside couldn’t be seen clearly.
Evidently, this light shield was the core of the herb garden. There was actually a layer of light shield protecting it. It could be seen how much importance the original owner attached to this place.
Li Qing walked closer and was stunned to discover that there was already a person in front of him who was fiercely attacking the light shield.
This person was none other than Clan Head Lu.
Earlier, he had used a spirit artifact to open the door and managed to escape by luck. He had disappeared without a trace. He hadn’t expected that he would actually appear here.
However, on second thought, this wasn’t strange. He had suffered such heavy losses in this operation, so he definitely wouldn’t be willing to leave so dejectedly. He would definitely search for some precious treasures in this ruins to make up for the losses.
From the looks of it, he was eyeing this herb garden. He didn’t recognize most of the medicinal ingredients outside and hadn’t picked them carefully. However, the plants at the core were definitely rare holy medicines in the world, and there was no mistake in picking them.
He seemed to have attacked this light shield for a long time, and his head was covered in sweat. The black and white light shield trembled gently like water, unable to break through for a moment.
Hearing the commotion behind him, Patriarch Lu was shocked. He immediately turned around and saw that it was Li Qing. His face revealed a surprised expression.
“It’s you?” There was deep doubt in his voice. This fellow’s strength was so weak, how did he escape?
“It’s me!” Li Qing replied indifferently.
After carefully examining Clan Head Lu, he discovered that he had used some unknown method to temporarily suppress the Soul Burning Tribulation Flame in his body. Even though black gas was still rising from time to time on his face, there was no way he could cause much damage.
“How did you escape?” Patriarch Lu asked.
“Do I need to escape?”
Patriarch Lu’s eyes narrowed as he carefully thought about the meaning behind Li Qing’s words.
“Could it be that you defeated three people from the Evil King Sect, so you don’t need to run? Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!” He shook his head vigorously.
Although he didn’t know what kind of methods Li Qing had, this person’s cultivation was only at the second level of Xiantian. The difference was so great, how could he defeat an existence at the sixth level of Xiantian plus two at the fifth level of Xiantian?
Could it be that this brat possessed some supreme treasure? Perhaps it was like the Blood Hawk Altar’s Altar Master, a powerful talisman?
“What’s impossible? You can try!” Li Qing chuckled.
Clan Master Lu’s expression darkened as he angrily said, “Kid, don’t play tricks in front of me! No matter what method you used to escape, hurry up and tell me honestly, what happened after I left? Where are Mr. Gui Yi and the others now?”
“I’ve already told the truth, but you don’t believe me. What can I do?” Li Qing said helplessly.
“Since you’re dishonest, then I’ll capture you and see if you’re old or not!” Patriarch Lu was furious, and then he grabbed Li Qingjie with his palm, wanting to capture him in one fell swoop.
Li Qing coldly snorted and punched out as well.
“Bang!”
The two sides actually took a few steps back, their strengths almost equal.
“It can’t be!” Patriarch Lu cried out. His dignified Xiantian 5th layer expert was actually repelled by a Xiantian 2nd layer kid.
“Looks like I underestimated you!” His expression became serious.
Without the Heavenly Saber, Li Qing’s strength could suppress ordinary Xiantian fifth layer experts. However, Patriarch Lu was not an ordinary fifth level Xiantian. He was the head of a large clan and was almost invincible at the same level. Therefore, he was able to compete with Li Qing.
“However, with your strength, I’m afraid you won’t be able to escape the hands of the three people from the Evil King Sect. There must be some hidden treasure!” “As long as I kill you, the treasure on your body will be mine!” Clan Master Lu took out a circular ring and a greedy expression appeared in his eyes.
Li Qing’s pupils narrowed when he saw this ring. This was the spirit artifact in Patriarch Lu’s hand. It was precisely because of this that he was able to break through the gate and escape.
Looking at this spirit artifact, his heart gradually became a little excited. He took out his Heavenly Saber from his interspatial ring and licked his lips, “Come, let me see if I can cut off the spirit artifact!”
