Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao
Chapter 4658 Chance Encounter with Celestial medicineChapter 4658 Chance Encounter with Celestial medicine
As they left the city and entered the mountains, Ling Han took the chance to ask Yan Yan about Buddhist Land.
Yan Yan only thought that he was a country bumpkin who was ignorant, but she told him everything she knew, filling him in on common knowledge.
Within Buddhist Land, there were countless cities like Fortune Dragon City, and they numbered in the tens of thousands. This was the smallest administrative unit of Buddhist Land, and belonged to the category of ordinary city.
And the smallest number would be a dozen over, and the largest number would be a few dozen ordinary cities, which would form a relatively large administrative area, which would be managed by a single B-level city.
For example, the superior city of Fortune Dragon City was called White River City, and it belonged to one of several thousand B-level cities.
Compared to ordinary cities, a B-level city was only slightly larger, and the overall level of cultivation was slightly higher, and the population was slightly larger.
Above B-level cities, there were also A-level cities, which similarly managed a dozen to a few dozen B-level cities.
This number was much lesser, only a few hundred.
Above A-grade cities were the ten great capitals, which were respectively in charge of these A-grade cities, and above the ten great capitals was the supreme Sacred Buddhist Land.
Ling Han gritted his teeth. He had to fight his way from an ordinary city all the way to a B-grade city, then to an A-grade, a capital, and only then would he be able to enter into the Sacred Land.
The Pond of Life must be in the Sacred Land.
Though he would have to go through multiple layers of selection, there was nothing that could be done. Who asked this to be the Buddhist Land?
The two of them chatted idly all the way, and soon entered into the depths of the great mountain.
Though Yan Yan was only a Mystery Realm Tier-level martial artist, she was very brave, and kept running into the depths of the mountains.
However, Ling Han knew that there was still an "elite" following behind them.
An elder in Cauldron Forging Tier.
This was obviously a Dao Protector that the City Lord had assigned to Yan Yan. He would definitely not allow anything to happen to Yan Yan, and that was why this little girl dared to be so unrestrained.
With an "elite" of this level following behind them, even if Ling Han didn't deliberately release his divine sense to investigate, he couldn't possibly deceive him.
"Three-Eyed Snow Leopard!" Yan Yan exclaimed excitedly, pointing ahead.
She ignored Ling Han, and immediately broke into a run and charged out.
Meanwhile, Ling Han followed behind at a leisurely pace. He suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity to "raise" his cultivation level.
He could completely discover a divine pond, a Celestial medicine, and then ingest it. When he returned, he could boldly announce that he had once again set foot into the Mystery Realm Tier, or even Celestial Path.
"Yes, not bad."
He released his divine sense, and began to search the mountains.
Ahead of them, the Three-Eyed Snow Leopard did not flee, but rather approached Yan Yan. Clearly, it thought that this was not a hunter, but rather a prey.
Peng!
The two immediately began a fierce battle. This human and panther were both Mystery Realm Tier-level. However, the snow leopard was a fierce beast, and was battling almost every day. Whether it was in terms of ferocity or battle experience, it was all superior to Yan Yan.
Hence, Yan Yan soon fell into a disadvantage, and was in a perilous situation.
Ling Han immediately joined the battle.
In just a few moves, Yan Yan was pushed out of the battle zone. She was not even qualified to interfere.
Yi?
Yan Yan was very surprised. That was because Ling Han's power was clearly not as strong as hers, but every move and every strike was just right, achieving the effect of defeating a stronger opponent as a weaker opponent.
This was because his use of power had reached perfection. He had not wasted a single bit, and had used it to its fullest.
Heavens, it could be done like this?
He was forcefully using his natural talent in battle to oppose an opponent at a higher cultivation level.
Yan Yan's beautiful eyes shone. This had practically overturned her understanding of martial arts.
As it turned out, his cultivation level was inferior, and his power was far inferior. It could actually be compensated through battle techniques.
No, no, no, this was not battle technique, but rather basic skills, basic skills that could not be any more solid.
Only when he had grasped the basics, would he be able to use such technique.
After a few dozen more moves, the Three-Eyed Snow Leopard didn't dare to fight anymore. It hurriedly turned around and fled.
Though fierce beasts were fierce, they were not idiots either. They knew that they were no match, so what was the point of fighting?
Ling Han leaped out in pursuit, and Yan Yan hurriedly followed behind him.
If Yan Yan had been paying close attention, she would have discovered that the snow leopard's escape routes were extremely irregular. Sometimes it would flee east, and sometimes it would flee south. Unfortunately, she was only focused on chasing, and had not considered this at all.
That was because the snow leopard was under Ling Han's control, but even the Cauldron Forging Tier behind couldn't tell.
"Celestial medicine!" Ling Han suddenly called out. His feet paused, and he pointed at the side of the mountain.
Yan Yan faltered for a moment before raising her head to look as well. True enough, there was a dark purple plant growing on the mountain wall. It was like a ganoderma, exuding a faint fragrance.
What kind of luck was this? They had actually discovered the Celestial medicine in pursuit of a fierce beast?
She knew that she had a Dao Protector, but what if her Dao Protector was no match either?
After all, they were already too deep into the mountains. If they were here, it wasn't impossible for vicious beasts of Cauldron Forging Tier or even Core Formation Tier to appear.
This was definitely not a Spiritual Herb. From so far away, she only had to take a single sniff, and it was as if all the pores on her body had opened up, making her feel extremely comfortable.
"Be careful!" she hurriedly said. "Wherever Celestial medicines grow, there will definitely be fierce beasts standing guard!"
She knew that she had a Dao Protector, but what if her Dao Protector was no match either?
After all, they were already too deep into the mountains. If they were here, it wasn't impossible for vicious beasts of Cauldron Forging Tier or even Core Formation Tier to appear.
"I'm going to pick the herb!" Ling Han didn't say another word as he ran out and climbed the mountain side.
"Zhang Hanjun, come back quickly!" Yan Yan hurriedly shouted. Who knew if a ferocious beast would suddenly appear?
What they feared really came true. A large snake actually poked out of a cave in the mountain wall. Its body was as wide as a bowl, and with a flick of its tongue, there was actually a black Qi surging.
"Not good, this is the Black Murderous Snake!" The Dao Protector immediately dashed out, grabbed Yan Yan, and turned to flee.
This Black Murderous Snake was a Cauldron Forging Tier-level fierce beast, and was one of the strongest of this level at that. The black Qi it spat out was incredibly poisonous. If one did not take the anti-venom in advance, then absorbing even the slightest bit, even a fellow Cauldron Forging Tier would very quickly fall to their knees.
Thus, his only option was to flee with Yan Yan. He didn't dare to battle at all.
In any case, his mission was to ensure Yan Yan's safety. As for others?
No matter how prodigious he was, what did it have to do with him?
Yan Yan faltered for a moment before screaming, "Hurry up and save Zhang Hanjun!"
"I'm sorry, Young Miss. Please forgive me for not being able to obey you." The Dao Protector shook his heads, obviously unwilling to turn around. "If that brat is lucky enough, he might have a chance of survival, but I definitely won't allow Young Miss to take risks."
No matter how much Yan Yan screamed, he only acted as if he had not heard anything. He grabbed onto Yan Yan and ran madly.
…
"Hiss!" The Black Murderous Snake descended from the mountain wall, its eyes fixed on Ling Han, its viciousness on full display.
"Sigh!" Ling Han sighed.
His public image wouldn't be destroyed so quickly, right?
"Uh, I'll make up a story, and say that at this critical moment, a golden condor suddenly appeared and fought fiercely with the Black Murderous Snake. In the end, both sides were severely wounded, and I took advantage of the opening."
"En, not bad, not bad."
Ling Han broke into a grin. It was as if there was some kind of curse; no matter what identity he was pretending to be, it would soon crumble. This time, he had to keep his disguise no matter what.
At this time, the Black Murderous Snake could no longer hold back and began to attack.
'This human is far too arrogant! He's already at death's door, yet he's still mumbling to himself. Fine, I'll eat you!'
The Black Murderous Snake suddenly opened its mouth wide, and charged towards Ling Han.
Ling Han's eyes widened slightly, "What do you want to do?"
Weng! A terrifying aura surged over.
The Black Murderous Snake's movements paused, and felt like its heart was about to explode.
What a terrifying aura!
