Chapter 790: Picking Sacred Medicine

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

Huff!

When they approached the blood-colored mountain peak, a scarlet bolt streaked across the sky. It looked like a beam of blood, but even more, it looked like the pupil of the god of death. A terrifying sight that could make one鈥檚 heart tremble.

Not only the toad, Ying Xiaoxiao, and Ying Zhexian, but even Chu Feng was feeling nervous, hesitating as they walked along the road. This area was truly too dangerous.

It was possible that if they took one wrong step, then they would be trapped forever. If they were struck by a sanguineous bolt of lightning, their body and soul would be entirely destroyed. In this yang-filled world, their natural instinct was restrained by all kinds of things.

It was very quiet on the wasteland. Only in this area was the silence occasionally broken by a bolt of lightning and the echo of its thunder.

Chu Feng stopped and pondered for a long time, not daring to tread forward carelessly.

He could already tell that this place was a killing ground. Using rocks or weapons to probe out the area was useless, and there were no domain runes anywhere.

This meant that the chance of him being able to have a way to kill any creatures wasn鈥檛 very great.

Furthermore, if he used soul light to explore the area and made a mistake, he would be struck by lightning and destroyed completely.

鈥淭his mountain path is forcing people to risk their lives.鈥?Chu Feng sighed.

His inherent weakness was that he didn鈥檛 have a physical body to protect him. In this area, he would be guaranteed to die in a flash if he came close to any lightning.

Chu Feng put the three ragged corpses side by side on the ground. He had already stripped their bodies of their spatial bracelets, and now he was preparing to put himself in one of the bodies.

鈥淎re we going to be reincarnated in their bodies here?鈥?Ouyang Feng murmured. He was also moving a body around and preparing to enter it.

This was a last resort, but they had no other option.

Ying Zhexian, although a graceful and unworldly beauty, didn鈥檛 mind this. She brought the silver loli along and began studying the corpses.

鈥淕asp!鈥?

In an instant, the toad let out a scream. Acting the most impatiently, he carelessly and abruptly entered his soul light into a corpse. As a result, his body started to burn while emitting green smoke. He scuttled out frantically, his entire body catching fire.

This startled Ying Xiaoxiao greatly. She moved away from the corpse and refused to go anywhere near it.

鈥淭hey鈥檙e restraining us even as corpses, damn it, this is too despicable.鈥?Ouyang Feng鈥檚 expression was ugly after extinguishing the flames.

Even though they had become corpses, the three cavalrymen鈥檚 bodies contained a large amount of vitality which, to soul bodies, acted as poison.

In this world full of yang, the living beings were terrible.

鈥淢ost important of all, these cavalrymen鈥檚 practice has a special kind of power. Their vitality is like an oven, which in essence restricts yin souls.鈥?Chu Feng judged, which shouldn鈥檛 be the case for other creatures.

The plan of borrowing the corpses failed. Chu Feng calmed his state of mind and seriously contemplated the rules of the domain in this area. Primarily, those envoys at the time had used quite a lot of smokescreens, even more, they had used plenty of special methods to stop outsiders from spying. This left Chu Feng with no dependable lead.

Lastly, after careful evaluation, Chu Feng believed that there were a total of five places that he could not deem safe or not. In those areas, he would need to go there himself before he could make a judgment.

鈥淐hu Feng, Chu Keng, you can鈥檛 be so reckless. We only have one life. We can鈥檛 try to press our luck. If we fail, then we鈥檙e all going to be annihilated.鈥?Ouyang Feng was the first to object.

鈥淭here are a lot of beasts in this wasteland. We can try and catch a few,鈥?Ying Zhexian said.

鈥淣ow that鈥檚 a good idea!鈥?Ouyang Feng nodded his head.

After a short time, they decided to act. They captured six frost lizards in hopes of controlling them and using these cold-blooded creatures to climb the mountain.

Then, after getting to an area, the frost lizards started to stare at the blood-colored herbs on the sacred mountain. Their gazes became fiery as they got closer. While being forced to climb the mountain, they put up fierce defiance, acting wildly and uncooperative.

鈥淭his is the medicine mountain of the War God. Whoever dares to enter it will suffer a divine punishment, and they will be terrified out of their minds,鈥?a frost lizard shouted.

Then Chu Feng and his companions fought the lizards and managed to kill them without any trouble.

鈥淢aybe we should make use of these frost lizard鈥檚 bodies,鈥?Ouyang Feng suggested. He decided to test one out. He entered his soul into a body and felt no great injury.

This was mostly due to the fact that frost lizards had a lot of yin energy, a chill that would cut to the bones.

Chu Feng also tried. He was guessing that he could dwell inside the frost lizard鈥檚 body for about six hours. Any longer would damage his soul.

鈥淓ven if we have a fitting vessel, it鈥檚 still going to be a dangerous journey up the mountain.鈥?Ying Zhexian proposed another idea to try.

鈥淭here is a lot of violet golden rats living far away, we can try to lure them over. If we coax a torrent of them over to make a push up that mountain road鈥︹€?

Chu Feng nodded鈥攊f a lot of creatures were to rush out according to the route they had deduced, he would naturally be able to find out the best path.

After the eruption of the rat tide, there might even be a few lucky ones that could climb up the mountain directly

The thought was perfect, but unfortunately, implementation was not completely the same as expectation.

Not only the lizards, but also the violet golden rats became uneasy at this place, unable to move further. They felt a kind of fear from deep within, rather going insane than advance up the mountain. They turned back and were once again attacked by Chu Feng and his companions.

Finally, Chu Feng and his companions captured a leader of the violet golden rats, they used their souls to control it. Using the leader, they ordered more than one hundred rats to advance up the blood-colored mountain peak.

Most of the violet golden rats wouldn鈥檛 listen to the order, instead turning around and fleeing.

More than ten violet golden rats did obey the order, though, but they quickly went crazy, jerking and colliding with each other wildly. They weren鈥檛 able to make it the right way as a result, and were immediately struck by a blood-colored bolt of lightning, killing all of the violet golden rats.

Ouyang Feng sighed. 鈥淚 know the reason. This blood-colored mountain peak is red from the color of divine beast blood. Especially today and just now, a lot of blood was spilled. The intangible smell of divine beasts intimidated all creatures and scared them from approaching. When faced with climbing the mountain, a great fear would erupt from deep within them.

He was a yin divine beast, so he understood this quite well.

Chu Feng wasn鈥檛 willing to accept defeat. He tried again to control another violet golden rat, but still had the same result as before鈥攊t was no use.

Furthermore, he insisted on entering a second rat leader鈥檚 body, but was almost devoured by its strong vitality backlash.

At this moment, be it Chu Feng, Ying Zhexian, or Ouyang Feng, they were all fairly silent. Surprisingly, all of these geniuses were stumped here.

Despite these violet golden rats being as big as rhinoceroses, they shouldn鈥檛 be able to endanger them.

After entering this world, the resources the geniuses had was even incomparable to a strange rat!

鈥淚 want to return to yang. I want to clean off all this yin and become a pure-blooded yang divine beast!鈥?

At this point, even Ouyang Feng got extremely irritated and was yelling like this.

This was because he had already tried to take control of one of the leader rats and, as a result, was yelling in pain after being burned by their vitality.

How could this be? He was a divine beast after all.

After exhausting every option, they decided in the end that if they were going to climb the mountain, they would have to do it themselves.

鈥淔airy Ying, I think if you took charge it would be best. Do you still have death substitution talisman on yourself?鈥?Chu Feng said.

Unexpectedly, Ying Zhexian was relatively pleased and didn鈥檛 turn down the offer. He was willing to comply with Chu Feng, but he offered a proposal: these talismans should only be used at the final juncture. Only when they were actually picking the sacred medicine should they use the death substitution talismans.

His judgment was clear. There would certainly be grotesque creatures near the sacred medicine. It would be the most dangerous area.

鈥淗ow much soul lights do we need to control a frost lizard each time?鈥?

鈥淚鈥檓 guessing at least one-twentieth of soul light. If it鈥檚 too little, you will be eroded away by its vitality and unable to control another body.鈥?

Finally, they decided to brave the danger and spend some soul lights. They would control some frost lizards and use them to look for the safest route.

鈥淵our domain deduction should be able to work out. There are only five places that need to be explored, right?鈥?

鈥淛ust about,鈥?Chu Feng replied. Not only Ouyang Feng stared blankly, but even Ying Zhexian expressed a rare little-girl mood, giving him a gigantic eye roll.

Then they set out to use frost lizards to climb the mountain. This body was controlled personally by Chu Feng. He wanted to observe the domain on the blood-covered mountain peak close range.

Boom!

Not long afterward, a bolt of lightning streaked down. Chu Feng let out a groan. The frost lizard burst into pieces, becoming ash, naturally destroying a bunch of his spirit energy.

Next, Ying Zhexian used a strand of spirit beam to control a frost lizard and started to climb the mountain.

Pop!

Half a second later, that frost lizard also exploded, destroying its body and soul completely. Ying Zhexian also lost a lot of spirit energy.

Three out of the five options were problematic. Ouyang Feng, Chu Feng, and Ying Zhexian each lost a piece of their spirit energy seeking out the correct path.

But they weren鈥檛 about to start celebrating because it was still hard to say if Chu Feng鈥檚 plan was completely correct.

Climbing the mountain to the blood-colored peak as a frost lizard went smoothly at first. This was due to Chu Feng鈥檚 temporary doppelganger. At the top of the mountain, they saw five strains of sacred medicine, a brilliantly colored, a brilliant golden, violet gold, radiant silver, and a fragrant sweet medicine.

Unfortunately, when they arrived here, the frost lizard Chu Feng was controlling crumbled away again. It was split into pieces by an invisible scarlet bolt of electricity.

Within this short time, he had lost two batches of spirit energy, altogether having a significant loss of one-tenth of his total spirit energy.

Next, Ying Zhexian and Ouyang Feng took turns trying as well, and one after another, they exploded.

Only Ying Xiaoxiao was protected. No one was willing to let the silver-haired loli try.

Ouyang Feng was nearly in tears. Picking medicine was proving to be extremely difficult. One-tenth of his spirit energy was gone just like that. This was already considered a heavy loss.

鈥淐hu Feng, think it over again. Don鈥檛 be so difficult. Didn鈥檛 you say the five points on the road weren鈥檛 certain?鈥?the toad scowled miserably.

Chu Feng deeply furrowed his brow. This blood-colored mountain peak had too many factors. This was definitely the work of a superior domain master. That emissary before was really prudent. There were plenty of safeguards set up along the mountain, and more than half of them had some kind of divine magnet banner that could stabilize the path.

Boom!

Once again, the frost lizard controlled by Chu Feng was blown to bits a bolt of sanguineous lightning, destroyed in both body and soul.

This arduous path could cost him his life.

They were ultimately successful. Chu Feng, Ouyang Feng, and Ying Zhexian each expended one-fifth of their spirit energy just to make it to this medicine.

They made a close observation and saw that it was the same as their previous judgment.

This was similar to Kun blood grass and Qilin blood grass. It even had an effect on quasi-saints. It was worthy of being called a sacred medicine!

Now, the garden had once again been irrigated with the blood of divine beasts. Given some time, the medicine would reach an even greater level of potency, However, they didn鈥檛 have any time to wait for that.

In the beginning, the medicine was all bright red, but now, there were some golden, glimmering purple, another scarlet like blood, a radiant silver, and a brilliant azure strain of medicine.

Now, the strong scent of these five different colored medicines seeped into the soul. It was enough to make one feel they were going to leave the ground, as if levitating.

鈥淚t鈥檚 in our reach, finally!鈥?Chu Feng was jubilant.

Then he looked toward Ying Zhexian, indicating that he could now use the death substitution talisman.

This was because they had already received heavy losses. They couldn鈥檛 consume any more, or else, if any more surprises happened, they would most likely not be able to cope with them.

鈥淯se mine,鈥?Ying Xiaoxiao said.

Her death substitute talismans hadn鈥檛 yet been used, while Ying Zhexian had spent three back when he was attacking Chu Feng and trapped in the domain.

Ying Zhexian still had two more chances to protect her life, and Ying Xiaoxiao still had five.

鈥淔irst use mine up.鈥?Ying Zexian had no doubts, stopping his own little sister.

Then she produced a divine talisman, white as snow and glimmering, with complicated mysterious markings inscribed on it. This indicated that it was refined personally by a heaven-illuminator.

As long the attacker wasn鈥檛 above that level, the death substitution talismans would work.

鈥淣ot only do we need to pick the sacred medicine, don鈥檛 forget to acquire the divine beast blood on the stems that just irrigated the garden. Even the mud, dig it up and bring it to me!鈥?Chu Feng urged.

Even though Ying Zhexian had a death substitution talisman, he thought it more dependable to control a frost lizard to ascend the mountain.

鈥淏ang!鈥?

Sure enough, while digging up the sacred medicine, the unexpected happened. An ability beam flew out and shook the death substitution talismans to pieces.

鈥淎s it turns out, this small-sized creature can strip domains!鈥?Chu Feng understood clearly what was happening.

After that, according to Ying Zhexian鈥檚 direction, Chu Feng split open a few rocks and made it safe there.

In an instant, scarlet clouds rushed away and a brilliant beautiful ray of light shined down. An astonishing scent from the medicine started to disperse, wafting across the mountain peaks鈥攊t was an intoxicating aroma.

Ying Zhexian had successfully harvested a golden medicinal herb and collected the divine beast blood below the root as well. She put all of it inside a jade container in her spatial bracelet.

She had taken the spatial bracelet and other items from the three dead cavalrymen.

The fact that Ying Zhexian and Ying Xiaoxiao鈥檚 death substitute talismans had been destroyed three times was not unfortunate at all. After all, they had not spent them more than five times.

In total, three medicine plants and the blood used to irrigate them had all been collected.

Ouyang Feng was excited to no end. He shouted, 鈥淭his is great! We can finally get rid of the yin spirit restriction and clean off all the yang. From now on, real yang will rush to the sky. We won鈥檛 fear the vitality of this world鈥檚 creatures again.鈥?

Chu Feng and Ying Zhexian all were both satisfied. They had a big harvest today. This opportunity exceeded all expectations.
