94: Crazy Scraping
Spiritual Medicine Peak.
As Medicine King Valley's largest Spirit Medicine cultivation base, the guards at Spiritual Medicine Peak were extremely strict.
Disciples patrolled all around the peak, their eyes vigilant, not letting go of any suspicious signs.
Along the way, while being escorted, Yang Lingchen noticed that Spiritual Medicine Peak was covered in medicinal herbs, and one of the medicinal gardens was planted with countless precious Spirit Medicine.
Those Spirit Medicine emitted rich Spiritual Qi, gently swaying in the breeze, as if beckoning him. If he could claim all these Spirit Medicine for himself, it would definitely allow his cultivation level to rise to the Spirit Sea Realm in a short time.
Just thinking about this, Yang Lingchen's heart couldn't help but beat faster.
Yang Lingchen was escorted by the Law Enforcement Disciples all the way to the dungeon of Spiritual Medicine Peak.
This was a very small dungeon, dark and damp, permeated with a musty smell, and currently held no one.
Because this was only Spiritual Medicine Peak, not Medicine King Valley's Heavenly Prison, prisoners were generally not detained here.
All along the way, Lingchen had been looking for a chance to escape, and now he already had a plan in mind.
His plan was to kill this entire squad of Law Enforcement Disciples, and then use the Shapeshifting Technique to transform into the appearance of the Old Man in the Golden Daoist Robe.
However, what gave Yang Lingchen a headache was that this squad of Law Enforcement Disciples consisted of eight people, and their cultivation level was all around the third layer of the Spirit Sea Realm. With his current strength, killing them all would be very difficult.
Yang Lingchen thought for a moment and finally decided to launch a sneak attack. Only this way would he have a chance to kill all of them.
"Big brothers, can you let me go? I have one million Mid-Grade Spirit Stones in my storage ring; I can give them all to you," Yang Lingchen pleaded pitifully, his voice trembling, his eyes filled with fear and begging.
"O-one million Mid-Grade Spirit Stones? Kid, don't try any tricks!"
The leading Law Enforcement Disciple widened his eyes and said, a flicker of greed flashing in his gaze, but he remained vigilant.
"It's true. If you don't believe me, let me go, and I'll take the ring out to show you."
Yang Lingchen whispered, his body trembling slightly, as if afraid that the Law Enforcement Disciples didn't believe him.
"A Ming, release him." The Law Enforcement Captain ordered.
His voice was low but revealed a hint of decisiveness.
"Captain, isn't this against the rules?" A Ming frowned, appearing somewhat worried.
"Don't worry! This kid is only at the third layer of the Spiritual Profound Realm. With so many of us watching, he can't escape," the Law Enforcement Captain said, a hint of confidence in his eyes.
"Alright!"
Hearing the Captain's words, everyone agreed it made sense, so they released Yang Lingchen.
"Kid, be honest and hand over the storage ring!"
The Law Enforcement Team Members sneered. Their eyes were fixed tightly on Yang Lingchen, like a pack of hungry wolves staring at a lamb.
"If I give you a million Spirit Stones, will you really let me go?" Yang Lingchen showed a doubtful expression. His eyes flickered, seemingly hesitating whether to trust these Law Enforcement Disciples.
"Stop the nonsense! Hand over the storage ring quickly. If you keep whining, do you believe I won't kill you?" The Law Enforcement Captain had a hint of threat in his eyes. His face turned gloomy, and the weapon in his hand was slightly raised.
"Don't... don't kill me. I'll hand it over, I'll hand it over."
Yang Lingchen nervously pulled out several storage rings. Because he looked too anxious, the rings scattered onto the ground.
Seeing this, everyone quickly bent down to pick them up.
"Swish... Swish... Swish... Swish... Swish...!"
The second form of the God Slaying Sword Technique, Scattering Flowers by a Heavenly Maiden, was executed by Yang Lingchen to the extreme, instantly unleashing more than a dozen sword strikes. The sword shadows flickered, like meteors streaking across the night sky, carrying a fierce Qi.
"Clang..."
The immortal demon sword returned to its sheath with a flourish. Yang Lingchen brushed the bangs from his forehead and said narcissistically, "This move is damn handsome."
As soon as he finished speaking.
"Thump... Thump... Thump... Thump..."
Eight corpses fell straight onto the ground. Blood stained the floor, and the air was filled with a bloody smell.
Next, Yang Lingchen pulled out Corpse Dissolving Powder and cleanly disposed of the corpses at the scene. As soon as the Corpse Dissolving Powder was sprinkled, the bodies quickly melted and vanished without a trace.
Then, using the Shapeshifting Technique, he made his appearance exactly the same as the Old Man in the Golden Daoist Robe.
Yang Lingchen carefully adjusted every detail, ensuring there were no flaws.
Casually changing into a new set of clothes, Yang Lingchen quickly walked out of the dungeon. At this moment, he had to race against time, otherwise, if that old fellow in the golden Daoist robe returned, he would die miserably.
However, Yang Lingchen knew that the Old Man in the Golden Daoist Robe should currently be presiding over the Disciple Recruitment Ceremony and wouldn't be able to return for the time being.
So, a plan formed in his mind, and he headed directly toward the medicinal garden of Spiritual Medicine Peak.
Looking at the medicinal garden rich in Spiritual Qi, Yang Lingchen was immensely excited. At this moment, he had a plan: to completely empty out the entire Spiritual Medicine Peak.
Gently pushing open the medicinal garden gate, several Medicinal Garden Disciples who were working came over and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Peak Lord." Their faces were filled with awe and respect.
"Everyone leave. This Lord needs to thoroughly inspect the medicinal garden."
Yang Lingchen shouted loudly, imitating the tone of the Old Man in the Golden Daoist Robe, appearing full of majesty.
"Yes, Peak Lord."
The few Disciples guarding the medicinal garden responded and then withdrew. They did not dare to disobey in the slightest and quickly left the medicinal garden.
After confirming that everyone had left, Yang Lingchen quickly began scavenging.
"Holy crap, Millennium Rare Treasure Fruit."
"This is Hundred-Year Bone Cleansing Flower. Damn, this is Seven Illusion Azure Spirit Birth."
Yang Lingchen frantically scavenged all sorts of rare and exotic herbs, leaving no blade of grass wherever he went. Excitement shone in his eyes, and his hands were constantly busy... Medicine King Valley Mountain Gate Plaza.
"Second Uncle, did you really catch that kid?"
Zhang Deshuai asked. His face held a flattering smile, and his eyes were full of anticipation.
"Trash! You couldn't even catch a little piece of garbage in the Spiritual Profound Realm, and I, This Lord, had to step in for you. If people found out that I, the dignified Peak Lord of Spiritual Medicine Peak, troubled a new Disciple undergoing assessment, where would I put my face?"
The Old Man in the Golden Daoist Robe said coldly, his face gloomy, extremely dissatisfied with Zhang Deshuai's incompetence.
This Old Man in the Golden Daoist Robe was none other than Zhang Deshuai's Second Uncle, Zhang Donghai.
"Second Uncle is right to lecture me." Zhang Deshuai nodded repeatedly after being scolded. He lowered his head, not daring to look Zhang Donghai in the eye.
"That kid is locked up by This Lord in the dungeon of Spiritual Medicine Peak. Let's go! We'll go take a look together," Zhang Donghai said. A hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes; he seemed to already be imagining how to deal with Yang Lingchen.
"What about the Disciple Recruitment Ceremony here?" Zhang Deshuai asked. He seemed hesitant, worried that leaving would affect the ceremony's progress.
"It's fine. If This Lord leaves, someone will naturally take over. If it weren't for this matter of yours, given This Lord's status, how could I possibly come to preside over the Disciple Recruitment Ceremony?" Zhang Donghai said irritably. His tone was full of impatience, annoyed by Zhang Deshuai's question... After an hour of scavenging, Yang Lingchen successfully emptied the entire medicinal garden.
Pushing open the medicinal garden gate, Yang Lingchen walked out.
At this moment, the few Disciples guarding the medicinal garden walked over, preparing to continue their watch.
Seeing this, Yang Lingchen quickly stopped them and said coldly, "This Lord just set up a Formation in the medicinal garden. The few of you will take a day off today. No one is allowed to enter the medicinal garden, lest you trigger the Grand Formation This Lord just arranged." His voice was cold and unquestionable.
After Yang Lingchen finished speaking, he walked down the mountain of Spiritual Medicine Peak.
"Yes, Peak Lord." The Disciples guarding the medicinal garden quickly responded, but inwardly, they were all overjoyed—they finally got a day off... Less than fifteen minutes after Yang Lingchen left, Zhang Donghai returned to Spiritual Medicine Peak with Zhang Deshuai.
When he found the Disciples guarding the medicinal garden sitting there drinking tea, he was immediately enraged.
"You scoundrels! You have immense nerve! Instead of properly watching the medicinal garden for This Lord, you dare to slack off here and drink tea," Zhang Donghai roared loudly. His face was flushed red, and his eyes seemed ready to spit fire.
"P-Peak Lord, didn't you tell us to come out?" The Disciples guarding the medicinal garden trembled in fear. Their faces were filled with terror, and the teacups in their hands nearly dropped to the ground.
"Slap... Slap... Slap... Slap..."
Zhang Donghai immediately slapped them several times and shouted, "Did This Lord tell you to come out and drink tea?"
You let us off, but you won't let us drink tea?
The Disciples guarding the medicinal garden were stunned by the slaps, and none dared to reply, but inwardly, they cursed Zhang Donghai's ancestors eighteen generations back.
"Still not going back to work?" Zhang Donghai roared.
"Y-Yes, Peak Lord." The Disciples guarding the medicinal garden quickly ran toward the medicinal garden.
"A bunch of wretches, they're infuriating me."
Zhang Donghai cursed, then led Zhang Deshuai toward the dungeon.
"Where is he?"
Zhang Donghai walked into the dungeon and saw no sign of anyone, only a pool of dry blood left on the ground.
"Peak Lord, this is bad, this is bad, something big has happened."
Just then, an urgent voice came from outside.
Hearing this voice, Zhang Donghai's heart sank, and he quickly rushed out of the dungeon.
"Why the panic?"
"Peak Lord, this is bad! The medicinal garden... all the Spirit Medicine in the medicinal garden is gone."
"Slap..."
Zhang Donghai directly sent this Disciple flying with a slap, and then quickly rushed toward the medicinal garden.
When he saw the devastated medicinal garden, he was so furious he nearly fainted on the spot.
"Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah..."
Zhang Donghai roared, "Who did this? Who? This Lord will exterminate his entire clan!"
His voice echoed throughout Spiritual Medicine Peak, filled with rage and killing intent.
"Second Uncle, could it have been Yang Lingchen?"
Zhang Deshuai said cautiously. His voice trembled, afraid that Zhang Donghai would vent his anger on him.
"Tell me, who entered the medicinal garden before this?" Zhang Donghai said, calming his mood.
"Reporting, reporting to the Peak Lord, only you came once. You said you set up a Grand Formation and told us not to enter," replied a Disciple guarding the medicinal garden.
"How long ago did he leave? The one who impersonated This Lord?" Zhang Donghai asked coldly.
"He left less than fifteen minutes before you returned," the Disciple guarding the medicinal garden replied.
"Little Bastard! This Lord will tear you into ten thousand pieces!" Zhang Donghai roared, then quickly sped down Spiritual Medicine Peak.
