6: Li Kui has bad intentions! Wei Zhou takes part in the assessment of a first-class herbalist!

"Phew~! I'm full!"

Wei Zhou let out a long breath, put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, patted his stomach contentedly, and turned to walk outside.

Once outside, he quickly shouldered his medicine hoe and headed towards the medicine fields.

Just as Wei Zhou was leaving,

With a creak!

The wooden door next door slowly opened, and a large man, about 1.9 meters tall, walked out.

The large man was shirtless, revealing bronzed skin and taut muscles all over his body.

He had a face with an extremely strong sense of contrast, appearing a bit simple and honest.

If Wei Zhou hadn't lived in this shantytown for a few years, he would have suspected that this was a simple and honest large man.

In reality, it was not so; this Fellow Daoist Li was a ruthless individual who killed without blinking.

It is rumored that this Fellow Daoist Li was as lustful as his nature; even before he stepped onto the immortal path, he raped the county magistrate's daughter.

This enraged the county magistrate, who dispatched dozens of people with swords to hunt him down.

That Fellow Daoist Li was also lucky; he accidentally stumbled into the sitting place of a Qi Refinement Stage Loose Cultivator, where he found a Cultivation Technique to Cultivate. In just one or two years of Cultivation, he achieved a Breakthrough to the first layer of the Qi Refinement Stage.

The first thing he did after his Breakthrough was to find the county magistrate's family, who had sent dozens of people to hunt him down, kill everyone, old and young, and then rape that woman again.

Thinking of this, Wei Zhou suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

He quickened his steps, intending to head towards the medicine fields.

Suddenly, a voice abruptly came from behind, "Fellow Daoist Wei."

Wei Zhou turned his head and saw that it was indeed his next-door neighbor, Fellow Daoist Li.

He was looking at him with a smile.

"Hello, Fellow Daoist Li!"

Wei Zhou immediately cupped his fists in a salute, saying with a forced smile.

"If Fellow Daoist Li has nothing, I'll be leaving first! There are still a few acres of land in the fields waiting for me to take care of!"

Wei Zhou again cupped his fists in a salute, only wanting to leave this place quickly in his heart.

"Alright, since Fellow Daoist Wei is busy! Then I, Li, will not force you. Let's have a good chat when Fellow Daoist Wei is free!"

Li Kui awkwardly rubbed his nose and waved his hand, saying.

Seeing Li Kui agree, Wei Zhou immediately felt as if he had been granted a great pardon, turning and quickly heading towards his medicine fields.

After Wei Zhou had gone far, Li Kui looked at the spot where Wei Zhou had just stood with a sinister expression.

A hint of resentment flashed in his eyes, but in an instant, his expression returned to normal.

He returned to the front of the house expressionlessly.

With a bang, he slammed the door shut.

On Wei Zhou's side,

After running for a short while, he encountered Mo Lao Liu, who had just opened his door.

"What's wrong, Xiao Wei! Why are you running so fast?"

Mo Lao Liu looked at the impatient Wei Zhou and casually asked.

"Nothing! Isn't this just exercising a bit! Look, I've even developed muscles recently!"

Wei Zhou said, then flexed his muscles to show them off.

"Oh, ho! Not bad, Xiao Wei!"

Mo Lao Liu gave a thumbs-up in praise.

"Lao Liu, did you just wake up! Your hair is all messy!"

Wei Zhou pointed at Mo Lao Liu's hair and said.

"Yes! Xiao Wei! Wait for me, I'll wash up, and we'll go to the medicine fields together!"

Mo Lao Liu rubbed his messy hair and said.

"Okay!"

Wei Zhou nodded in response.

After Wei Zhou nodded in response, Mo Lao Liu turned and entered the courtyard gate.

...

A little less than a quarter of an hour later,

Mo Lao Liu walked out of the courtyard gate refreshed, a small half-bag of tobacco dangling from his mouth, and a medicine hoe on his shoulder, leading the way towards the medicine fields.

Wei Zhou also closely followed his steps, the two of them, one in front and one behind, unhurriedly heading towards the medicine fields.

Along the way, they chatted idly from time to time, and in a blink of an eye, they had arrived at the medicine fields.

Upon reaching the medicine fields, the two separated, each heading towards their own medicine fields.

Wei Zhou walked into his medicine field, and in the second acre, in the empty half of the medicine field, he used his medicine hoe to turn over the soil, sow the seeds, and carefully press them down.

Repeating this process, in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Wei Zhou had finished his work for the day.

He thought that since he now possessed the talent of a Great Master of Medicine Herbs, why not participate in the assessment for a First Grade Medicine Herb Master.

He acted on his thoughts immediately. He summoned his Flying Sword from his Storage Pouch and headed towards the market.

A little less than a quarter of an hour later,

Wei Zhou stood before the magnificent Medicine Herb Master Assembly, looking at the five large characters "Medicine Herb Master Assembly" on the plaque, he was truly shocked.

Because those five characters were cast from rare second-tier gold ore, red and blue stones, one piece of which was worth hundreds of times his net worth.

How could this not surprise and shock him!

"Sir, are you here to participate in the assessment for a First Grade Medicine Herb Master?"

A attendant at the entrance pulled him out of his shock with a single sentence.

He looked at the two attendants at the entrance and calmly uttered two words.

"Yes."

"Sir, this way please!"

The attendant bowed and led Wei Zhou inside.

Passing through the main hall and walking along a small bluestone path, they arrived at the assessment area for First Grade Medicine Herb Masters.

Wei Zhou casually threw a broken Spirit Stone to the attendant to send him away.

He walked alone towards the examiner. Upon reaching the examiner, the examiner said,

"Name."

"Wei Zhou."

"Identity."

"Yu Tian Sect Medicine Farmer."

Hearing his identity, the examiner couldn't help but look at Wei Zhou in surprise.

He coughed and continued,

"Passed. Please select the difficulty for the Flora Illusion Trial."

"A, B, C, D. A is the hardest, D is the easiest."

"I choose B."

Wei Zhou said without hesitation. There were only a few who chose A, but more than a dozen chose B. He didn't want to attract too much attention; the Dao of caution was paramount.

Two incense sticks later,

The trials for C and D difficulties were completed. Next, it was time for the trials of A and B difficulties.

"Those who chose the B difficulty trial Secret Realm, please enter the Secret Realm!"

The examiner announced loudly.

More than a dozen people who chose the B difficulty Flora Illusion stepped into the light circle in front of them.

As soon as Wei Zhou stepped into the light circle, he felt a dizzying sensation. When he opened his eyes, he was already inside the Flora Illusion.

There was no one else around, suggesting that the assessment was individual.

Wei Zhou, like a curious baby, touched here and looked there, observing everything.

Suddenly,

A voice abruptly sounded in his ear.

"Assessee: Wei Zhou."

"Assessment Difficulty: B."

"Assessment Content: Successfully revive at least 5 out of 10 dying medicine herbs within one year. This must be done within the Flora Illusion and lasts for one year! You may not leave during this period; leaving will be considered forfeiting the assessment!"

"Time starts now!"

"One year, by then, my day lilies will be cold!"

Wei Zhou couldn't help but shout loudly.

Just then, another voice suddenly came to Wei Zhou's ear.

"Don't worry! One year inside is only the time it takes for one incense stick to burn outside!"

Hearing this, Wei Zhou felt a little relieved!

Subsequently, Wei Zhou cast aside all distracting thoughts in his mind and concentrated fully on reviving these dying medicine herbs.

Time flew by, and in a blink of an eye, Wei Zhou had spent a full year in the Flora Illusion.

Fortunately, he was a Cultivator and had already abstained from grains early on. If it were a Mortal, a year without eating or drinking would have long since killed him!

Fortunately, the final result was good.

Out of 10 dying medicine herbs, he ultimately revived 7, thus earning a reward of 7 wisps of flora essence from the Flora Illusion.
