362: Lingxincao

This was a task that did not require fighting. It was issued by a goat-headed, human-bodied tribe on the grassland. One of their Elders had suffered Qi Deviation during his secluded Cultivation, causing his cultivation to plummet and his life to be in peril.

Their tribal physicians were helpless and could only seek outside assistance. The task required finding a rare Medicinal Plant called 'Spirit Heart Grass,' which was said to stabilize the mind and treat the after-effects of Qi Deviation.

The person who issued the task promised that as long as the Medicinal Plant could be found, they would give generous rewards and provide valuable information about the Barren Continent.

Lin Feng looked at the task, and his heart was moved. He knew that this task would not only help him obtain useful information but also allow him to accumulate some good karma. Therefore, he decided to accept the task and head to the depths of the grassland to search for 'Spirit Heart Grass.'

He had seen 'Spirit Heart Grass' before coming to Ten Thousand Spirits City, when he was wandering around the Barren Continent. However, it was guarded by a Void Refining Peak Barren Beast, and at that time, he did not want to cause trouble, so he naturally did not try to snatch it.

Now, seeing this task, Lin Feng already had a plan. Although the Void Refining Peak Barren Beast was powerful, it would not be difficult for him to handle with his current strength.

Lin Feng made up his mind and decided to immediately go to the depths of the grassland. He left Ten Thousand Spirits City and flew towards the depths of the grassland. Along the way, he successfully avoided many Yao Beasts and dangerous areas by relying on the speed of his Wind and Thunder Wings and his keen observation skills.

Finally, Lin Feng arrived at the location where he had previously seen 'Spirit Heart Grass.' He carefully concealed himself and quietly approached the grassland. Sure enough, he saw a Void Refining Peak Barren Beast guarding it.

Lin Feng was secretly on guard. He knew he had to act carefully, otherwise, if he alarmed this Barren Beast, the consequences would be unimaginable. He quietly circled behind the Barren Beast, preparing to look for an Opportunity to strike.

This Barren Beast was not highly intelligent, but it did have some tricks. It was a strange Barren Beast with an upper body resembling a lion and a lower body like a Dragon. Its eyes were as hot as flames, and a powerful Qi emanated from its body, inspiring fear.

Lin Feng hid in the dark, carefully observing the Barren Beast. He found that although the Barren Beast was powerful, it did not seem to have much wisdom, only guarding the 'Spirit Heart Grass' by instinct.

Lin Feng's heart stirred, and he decided to use this to lure the Barren Beast away. He took out an Advanced Yao Beast Inner Core from his Storage Ring, which he had obtained as spoils of war from a previous battle, emanating a strong energy fluctuation.

Lin Feng lightly tossed the Inner Core into the distance, then deliberately made some noise. Sure enough, the Barren Beast was attracted by the Inner Core. It suddenly turned its head, its eyes fixed on the direction of the Inner Core.

Seizing this Opportunity, Lin Feng immediately acted. He rushed towards the location of the 'Spirit Heart Grass' like a bolt of lightning, quickly picked a few 'Spirit Heart Grass' plants, and then, relying on the speed of his Wind and Thunder Wings, swiftly left the area.

After the Barren Beast reacted, it immediately roared and chased after Lin Feng. But its speed was ultimately a bit slower, and it could only watch as Lin Feng gradually disappeared into the distance.

Lin Feng flew until he was sure that the Barren Beast could no longer catch up, then he stopped. He looked at the 'Spirit Heart Grass' in his hand, secretly pleased.

This task was completed very smoothly; he not only obtained precious Medicinal Plants but also successfully avoided the powerful Barren Beast. Next, he only needed to return to Ten Thousand Spirits City and hand over the 'Spirit Heart Grass' to the person who issued the task to receive generous rewards and valuable information.

Lin Feng made up his mind and decided to immediately return to Ten Thousand Spirits City. He flew towards Ten Thousand Spirits City, relying on the speed of his Wind and Thunder Wings.

Along the way, he once again successfully avoided many Yao Beasts and dangerous areas, relying on his keen observation and rich experience.

Finally, after a strenuous flight, Lin Feng successfully returned to Ten Thousand Spirits City. He found the person who issued the task and handed the 'Spirit Heart Grass' to him.

The person's eyes flashed with surprise when he saw the Medicinal Plant in Lin Feng's hand. He quickly took the Medicinal Plant and carefully inspected it. After confirming it was correct, he looked at Lin Feng gratefully and said, "Thank you so much, Brother Lin Feng. You not only saved our tribe's Elder but also brought hope to our tribe."

Lin Feng did not say much about his thanks but instead motioned for him to hand over the task reward. The person nodded, took out an exquisite jade box from his in arms and handed it to Lin Feng.

The jade box opened, revealing a Medicinal Pill emitting a faint glow and an ancient scroll. The person explained, "This is your reward. The Medicinal Pill was refined by the Alchemy Great Master in our tribe and is very helpful for improving Cultivation. And in this scroll, some valuable information about the Barren Continent and a hidden Cultivation ground are recorded."

Lin Feng took the jade box, secretly pleased. He knew that this task not only earned him generous rewards but also gave him a deeper understanding of the Barren Continent. He thanked the person and then left the task posting area.

Next, Lin Feng planned to rest in Ten Thousand Spirits City for a while before heading to that hidden Cultivation ground. He found a decent-looking inn and walked in.

In the inn, people of various races came and went, making it very lively. Lin Feng found a seat by the window, ordered a few specialty dishes, and quietly began to enjoy them.

Just then, Lin Feng suddenly heard a rush of footsteps. He looked up and saw a Yao Race youth, dressed in luxurious clothes and with an anxious expression, hurriedly walk in. The Yao Race youth looked around for a bit, then walked towards Lin Feng.

The youth walked up to Lin Feng, cupped his hands, and said, "This Human Race Brother, I observe your Qi is stable and your strength is extraordinary. I would like to ask for your help."

Lin Feng's heart stirred; he didn't expect to encounter someone asking for help as soon as he arrived in Ten Thousand Spirits City. He smiled and asked, "Oh? What can I do for Your Excellency?"

The Yao Race youth said with a solemn expression, "To be honest, I am from the Fox Race in Ten Thousand Spirits City. Recently, our Fox Race discovered an Ancient Ruins containing endless Treasure Trove and Opportunity. However, the Ruins are full of dangers, and the strength of our Fox Race is limited, so we cannot go deep into it. I heard that Human Race Cultivators are exceptionally wise and powerful, so I specifically came to ask for your assistance."
