149: Chapter 148 Harvest, Venerable Wangchen's Lingering Regret

Hearing this, Xiaoyue did not dare to refuse, and could only suppress the loss in her heart, obediently nodding in agreement.

"As you command, Senior, please follow me."

Finishing her words, Xiaoyue turned around to lead the way ahead, bringing the four of them shuttling through the medicine garden filled with Immortal Plants everywhere.

The surrounding Spiritual Qi was so dense that it almost turned into water mist, and the soil beneath their feet was entirely ten-thousand-year spiritual soil, where peerless Spirit Medicines with ages casually reaching thousands or tens of thousands of years could be seen everywhere.

Lin Lei looked along the way while clicking his tongue in amazement, his fists unable to help tightly clenching.

He could perceive the boundless vitality contained in these Spiritual Plants, and casually taking any single stalk out would be enough to drive outside Cultivators crazy.

Duyuan's gaze carried a trace of excitement, and the steady state of mind cultivated by Buddhism could also barely suppress it, strongly enduring the impulse to scrape this place clean, remaining silent all the way.

Bai Yuekui followed closely by Ye Qingxuan's side step by step, casually sweeping across the surroundings; no matter how many treasures there were, they did not equal even a fraction of the person by her side.

The National Fortune Live Broadcast Room bullet screen scrolled crazily once again.

[ My goodness! This is the Foundation of an ancient Great Master level! So many main ingredients for Immortal Pills!? ]

[ No wonder Master Wangchen could leave a Legacy; this family fortune is simply too bountiful! ]

[ Compared to that bunch of fools from the Pangu Civilization, this Master is truly perceptive! ]

Master Yuanxin looked at the screen and sighed lightly: "With the Opportunity placed right before our eyes, this old daoist is truly somewhat excited."

Celestial Master Zhang nodded slightly: "Qingxuan has a number in his heart, he definitely won't let it go."

Master Kongming remained silent, only calculating in his heart how many Medicinal Pills could be refined. The Buddhist Water and Land Dharma Assembly was about to be held, and it absolutely could not be inferior to the Daoist School's Grand Ritual of Luotian.

Little Nun's eyes shone brightly as she looked; although she could not recognize all those medicinal materials, she could clearly see the several rare Spiritual Plants recorded in the hundred solutions to immortal cultivation.

National Destiny Space——

Xiaoyue led the crowd through the outer garden, pointing at the overlapping barrier passages ahead and introducing in a low voice.

"The outer layer is just an earth and wood system medicine garden, and the inner four layers of Secret Realm medicine fields respectively adapt to fire, water, thunder, and gold environments, with each layer having exclusive treasure medicines."

Ye Qingxuan's Divine Sense swept across the layers of barriers, seeing through all the mysteries of the Formation at a glance.

His expression was calm, and he spoke softly: "Then let's start from the first layer."

Xiaoyue did not dare to procrastinate, immediately leading Ye Qingxuan and the other four into the first-layer fire-attribute medicine field.

The heat wave here rolled, firelight flowed everywhere, patches of Burning Heaven Red Lotus, Dragon Pattern Vermilion Fruit, and others grew luxuriantly, their fire Qi pure and gentle without any sense of tyranny, obviously carefully nurtured by a Great Master year-round.

The crowd casually browsed as they walked straight into the second-layer water-system medicine field.

The medicine field was filled with dense Spiritual Qi, green wave Dao Yun lingering around all directions. Heavenly Heart Lotus, Mysterious Ice Jade Lotus Root, Clear Water Dragon Whiskers Grass, and other water-system Spirit Medicines gently swayed with the breeze, an endless aura rushing to their faces, most suitable for nourishing the Divine Soul and solidifying the Foundation of cultivation.

The thunder-system medicine field was the most terrifying, with fine thunder light lingering around vegetation year-round. Heavenly Thunder Vine, Thunder God Grass, Thunder Pattern Golden Ganoderma, and other rare thunder-attribute medicinal materials were everywhere. The violent thunder was locked by the Formation, leaving only the pure Origin to nourish the Spirit Medicines, making it a supreme treasure for hammering the Physical Body and breaking through the Bottleneck.

The last layer was the gold-system medicine garden, filled with the Qi of metal weapons, and the entire space was permeated with the extremely pure Qi of Geng Metal.

Golden Ganoderma, Golden Leaf Grass, Three-leaf Sword Grass, and Thousand-Refined Gilded Flower Fruit grew tall and straight everywhere, their sharp Dao Yun restrained without leaking.

Geng Metal governs killing, forging the Physical Body and quenching Magic Treasures, making it top-tier spiritual materials dreamed of by Body Cultivators and Artifact Refining Great Masters.

The layout of the four-layer medicine garden was exquisite, its Dao Yun Perfection, fully displaying the Foundation of Master Wangchen as a top-tier Alchemy Great Master.

Lin Lei looked on with a shocked heart and eyes full of envy.

He cultivated the Martial Dao, and before his eyes, every single thunder-system and fire-system Spirit Medicine was a once-in-a-millennium supreme treasure for Body Refining.

Duyuan quietly observed, only sighing that the Opportunity of this Secret Realm was profound, truly worthy of being a Body Integration Great Master's medicine garden.

Bai Yuekui always nestled by Ye Qingxuan's side, showing little interest in the Immortal Plants covering the ground.

The National Fortune Live Broadcast Room bullet screen swiped rapidly, and its popularity skyrocketed.

[ Four-attribute medicine fields! Gold, wood, water, fire, earth, and thunder are all covered; this Foundation is too terrifying! ]

[ Where is this a medicine garden? It is clearly a Treasure Trove! ]

[ Fortunately, Master Wangchen was perceptive and paid off her debts, otherwise these treasures would have long been completely annihilated along with the Pangu Civilization! ]

Master Yuanxin slowly opened his mouth to comment: "One garden houses four Dao Origins, zoning to raise medicines and borrowing the power of heaven and earth to nurture spirits. This Master Wangchen is supreme in both Formation and Alchemy."

Celestial Master Zhang nodded in agreement: "With a transparent Heart-Nature and heaven-defying skills, it is truly a pity that she was born in the wrong time."

After touring the entire medicine garden, Xiaoyue stopped her steps and respectfully lowered her head.

"Senior, all medicine fields have been completely observed. All Immortal Plants in the whole garden can be taken and used, and I ask Senior to make the decision."

Ye Qingxuan's gaze swept across the entire Secret Realm medicine garden, the Xiaoyao Great Dao slightly circulating, completely insighting the Formations and Spirit Medicine Origins of this place, his expression calm and without ripples.

He nodded slightly, and spoke calmly: "Since we have finished viewing, then select a few core Immortal Plants, and leave the remaining Spiritual Plants in place to nourish the vitality of this Secret Realm."

Ye Qingxuan's gaze calmly swept across the Immortal Plants everywhere, only turning his head to look at the three people beside him, speaking softly: "You guys choose on your own, remember to leave the roots and not cut off the vitality of the medicine garden."

Duyuan was a Cultivator. Although his Alchemy skills were average, he had also extensively read about hundreds of herbs and Spirit Medicines, and his eyes instantly lit up.

Like a treasure-seeking rat seeing a Treasure Trove, he couldn't wait to rush into the medicine field.

He shuttled left and right, his hands busy without stopping, stuffing whatever rare medicinal herbs he saw into his Storage Pouch all at once, moving extremely fast, wishing he could sweep the entire medicine garden clean.

Ye Qingxuan stood at the back watching, the corners of his eyes twitching slightly, secretly complaining in his heart that this thief monk was truly greedy.

Seeing Duyuan getting crazier the more he took, almost turning the entire medicine garden over like a cow plowing the land, Ye Qingxuan finally spoke out to stop him: "Monk, stop when it is enough. Only take what you can use. You also put away those main materials for refining Immortal Pills; can you refine them?"

Duyuan's movements froze, he stopped his hands with an embarrassed face, gave a dry smile, and only focused on selecting Spiritual Plants suitable for Buddhist cultivation and solidifying the Dao Heart.

Lin Lei's personality on the side was honest and pure, and he did not understand the complicated names of Spirit Medicines. He walked and stopped along the way, occasionally leaning next to Duyuan to humbly inquire.

"Great Master, what medicinal herb is this?"

"Great Master, is this useful for Martial Dao Body Refining?"

He was not greedy for more or novelty, and throughout the whole process, he only selected Geng Metal, thunder-system, and fire-system Spirit Medicines suitable for Physical Body quenching and strengthening Qi and blood, with clear choices.

Bai Yuekui walked leisurely, slowly shuttling between the medicine fields. She had shared Ye Qingxuan's memories and understood the miraculous uses of countless Spirit Medicines under heaven.

She had no interest in Immortal Plants that enhanced cultivation, and only locked onto a few Spiritual Plants.

They were all top-tier Divine Plants in the world for retaining youth and nourishing appearance, namely, Ningshuang Jade Lotus Flower, Taiyin Snow Spirit Plant, Ice Crystal Lovesick Vine, and Yuehua Beauty Ganoderma.

These few Spiritual Plants specialized in moistening immortal skin, solidifying appearance, and cleansing turbid Qi. These Spiritual Plants all served to nourish appearance and gently warm immortal bones. After all, a woman adorns herself for the one who delights in her.

This was the supreme treasure dreamed of by all female Cultivators, and no wonder Bai Yuekui had a special fondness only for this type of Spiritual Plant. She picked them carefully, with gentle movements, only selecting the Immortal Plants she favored.

The National Fortune Live Broadcast Room bullet screen instantly exploded.

[ Hhahaha, Duyuan this thief monk, his true colors are exposed!! ]

[ Daoist Qingxuan's complaint is too realistic! Taking Immortal Pill materials when you can't even refine them is purely a waste! ]

[ Duyuan's Alchemy skill is just average, why take so many Spirit Medicines?! Send them over to me! ]

[ Won't everyone in Yaowang Valley go crazy?! These are Spirit Medicines that have been extinct for thousands of years! ]

[ The few people upstairs, which School's big shots are you? ]

[ It's just those few people, Wudang, Tianshi Mansion, and Yaowang Valley. ]

[ Lin Lei is too honest, only choosing useful ones, the sense of contrast is maxed out! ]

[ Boss Bai understands well! Only choosing youth-retaining Immortal Plants, the love of beauty knows no distinction between immortals and mortals! ]

Master Yuanxin looked on and smiled helplessly: "Their Heart-Natures are different, and their choices vary, which quite suits each person."

Celestial Master Zhang shook his head slightly and smiled, looking at Kongming with full interest: "Duyuan is greedy but not foolish, able to listen to admonitions, and his Dao Heart is still stable, which is already rare."

Master Kongming smiled without speaking. Joke, this old monk has already gotten all the benefits, say whatever you want.

Master Yuanyi, far away in Lingyin Temple, looked at Duyuan's stingy appearance and how he stopped at a single admonition, shaking his head helplessly with a long sigh.

"Sigh, this child Duyuan still hasn't learned the essence of my Senior Brother! Regardless of whether it's useful or not, stuff it all away first and talk later!"

"If it really doesn't work, turn back and ask that old man Medicine King for help; share a part of the medicinal materials with him as remuneration, and he'll be dying to rush over! You're truly overly restrained."

As his words fell, Master Yuanyi laughed dumbly to himself first.

He secretly shook his head in self-mockery, his mindset had even been changed. Hanging out in the National Destiny Space with a big shot like Ye Qingxuan, Opportunities walked everywhere, and there was no worry about not having benefits. He actually even started worrying about Duyuan fishing for resources, which was truly living too comfortably recently and floating in mindset.

Meanwhile, Blue Star, Yaowang Valley.

Medicine King Sun and the current Medicine King stared fixedly at the live broadcast screen, their bodies trembling slightly with excitement.

In the screen, most of the high-grade Heaven And Earth Treasures growing everywhere had been extinct on Blue Star for thousands of years, being peerless Spirit Medicines that only existed in the ancient era according to ancient records.

The two big shots who had been obsessed with Alchemy all their lives were like sex-starved men abstaining for decades seeing a peerless beauty at this moment, their eyes burning hot, wishing they could directly drill into the National Destiny screen and rush into the Secret Realm medicine garden.

The two looked at each other and instantly understood each other's thoughts.

How about directly packing up little Yaor'er and sending her up to Qing?

They knew very well in their hearts that with Ye Qingxuan's layout and strength, he would never waste this ancient medicine garden, and afterward would inevitably take away the entire medicine garden Secret Realm.

Such a massive and complete category of ancient spirit plants surpassed all Heaven And Earth Treasures, Cultivation Techniques, and secret arts for Alchemy addicts.

Yaowang Valley girl Lin Yao stood aside, her eyes sparkling as she stared closely at the screen, her gaze firmly locking onto the few ice-system Immortal Plants chosen by Bai Yuekui.

The screen cut back to the National Destiny Space medicine garden Secret Realm.

Seeing Duyuan, Lin Lei, and Bai Yuekui the three of them stop their actions and put away the selected Spirit Medicines, Ye Qingxuan's gaze was plain as he spoke softly: "Have you all chosen?"

The three nodded in unison.

The next instant, Ye Qingxuan raised his eyes to look at the empty Void Realm, his tone indifferent: "Fellow Daoist has been watching from the sidelines for a long time, why hide your head and show your tail, reveal yourself and let us meet."

The moment these words fell, the body hairs of Duyuan, Lin Lei, and Bai Yuekui instantly stood on end, their bodies tightening abruptly as if facing a formidable enemy!

An existence that could be personally called a "Fellow Daoist" by Ye Qingxuan must definitely be a solid Body Integration Stage Great Master!

The names of Master Wangchen flashed through the three people's minds instantly, their hearts alarmed and cautious. They quickly turned their thoughts, then relaxed slightly.

Back then, Master Wangchen scattered all her cultivation in order to hide from the Heavenly Dao's liquidation; it was absolutely impossible for her to retain her peak battle strength.

But even so, the three still instinctively closed in by Ye Qingxuan's side. Only by staying close to this big shot could 100% a sense of security rise in the bottom of their hearts.

The three of them were all Half-step Integration Cultivators and had long personally experienced the terror of Body Integration Stage powerhouses.

They were extremely clear in their hearts that the Body Integration realm was a natural chasm on the path of cultivation, and the barrier gap was as vast as a heavenly abyss.

Even a Cultivator in the Early Stage of Body Integration, even after going through tens of thousands of years of temporal erosion, now with only a wisp of a Remnant Thought and soul, still had the strength to crush the three of them to death with a casual wave.

Duyuan's mind and spirit were tense. He knew best just how terrifying the Foundation of a Body Integration Great Master was; the remaining soul still possessed Dao Yun coercion, which was simply not something a Half-step Integration could contend against.

Lin Lei clenched his fists tightly, Qi and blood and the Eight Extremities elements quietly surging, ready to be on guard at any time.

Bai Yuekui's spiritual mind power quietly spread out, her figure pressing close to Ye Qingxuan, completely trusting the person by her side.

The huge ancient medicine garden instantly quieted down, the rich medicinal fragrance still permeating, but the air was filled with invisible tension and a murderous aura.

The National Fortune Live Broadcast Room bullet screen instantly emptied for a second, then completely exploded!

[ F*ck! There's someone else? Hiding in the Void Realm? ]

[ Being able to make Daoist Ye call them Fellow Daoist, 100% it's the Body Integration Stage! Is it Master Wangchen's Remnant Thought? ]

[ Half-step Integration is still an ant in front of a Body Integration Remnant Thought. Fortunately, Daoist Qingxuan is here, otherwise, Duyuan and the others would be in danger today! ]

Within the silent medicine garden, an ethereal, soft female voice suddenly drifted out, resounding through the entire medicine garden.

"As expected, it still couldn't be hidden from you, powerhouse from beyond the territory."

As the words landed, the ripples of the Void Realm gently swayed, and a slender female figure slowly condensed into shape.

Her figure looked incomparably illusory, and she wore plain white robes. The style of her clothing looked incomparably ancient, and her temperament was cold and untainted by the mortal world.

Looking at her exterior, she had the peerless beauty of only twenty-something years of age, a head of white hair, glowing white skin, and clear eyebrows and eyes, yet a pair of eyes were full of vicissitudes and desolation.

Ye Qingxuan's gaze calmly swept across the other party, subconsciously comparing Qingling and Bai Yuekui with the Master Wangchen before him in his heart quietly.

He silently nodded in his heart.

Master Wangchen was indeed peerless in beauty, able to count as a peerless beauty rarely encountered through the ages.

But compared to his own wife, she was still a notch lower after all.

As expected, Daoist priest's wife was still the prettiest.

Duyuan and Lin Lei did not even dare to draw a large breath, staring fixedly at this figure before them, their whole body's guard not daring to relax in the slightest.

This was the top-tier Great Master left over by the Pangu Civilization until today, Master Wangchen! Even if it was just a wisp of a Remnant Thought, it still carried a boundless coercion.

Bai Yuekui stood quietly by Ye Qingxuan's side, her gaze calm, completely indifferent to the other party's peerless appearance.

As long as Ye Qingxuan's mind remained unchanged, no matter how beautiful a person in the world was, it was of no importance to her.

The National Fortune Live Broadcast Room instantly flipped upside down, with bullet screens dense and nonstop!

[ F*ck! Master Wangchen is actually a woman! And a peerless great beauty! ]

[ An ancient Great Master from countless tens of thousands of years ago, look at this temperament! ]

[ But her eyes look so sad. ]

[ It's also normal. Her civilization perished, and clearly knowing how to save it but having no way at all, can only watch with open eyes. Anyone would feel terrible. ]

[ Makes sense! ]
