Chapter 211: Spirit plant garden
This is the scattering of monkeys when the tree falls.
Mi Xiaojing asked, "What's the casualty situation?"
Tian Cang replied, "Many are injured, fortunately, this is where the Grass-Benevolence Hall is located, and we have stored a lot of Spirit Pills. However, a few people still died."
Mi Xiaojing was puzzled and asked, "We didn't even use the defensive formation, how could there be casualties?"
Tian Cang explained, "A few disciples with access tokens tried to sneak away, but as soon as they left the defensive formation, they were discovered by people outside and were killed on the spot."
Mi Xiaojing gave a bitter smile, "At this time, even if a Foundation Establishment expert goes out, if they are discovered without any special means, I'm afraid it's more bad than good."
Tian Cang said, "By the way, you haven't said, how did you come back?" He was a bit puzzled. In such a chaotic situation, how could he run back from the main peak to Qingmu Peak? Was there a secret passage he didn't know about?
Mi Xiaojing replied, "I almost got killed, luckily I ran fast."
Tian Cang admired him in his heart. The distance from the main peak to Qingmu Peak was not short. If he flew all the way, he would be a live target. He really didn't know how Mi Xiaojing managed to do it.
What he didn't know was that Mi Xiaojing could teleport, but he was not proficient in using it, which led to him being blocked under Qingmu Peak. He consumed a lot of Spirit Stones before he finally managed to escape in.
Mi Xiaojing asked again, "Who is in charge of the Grass-Benevolence Hall now?"
Tian Cang replied, "It's Chen Shouyi, Elder Chen is in charge of the defense."
Mi Xiaojing shook his head secretly. He and Chen Shouyi had reached the point of life and death. He said, "Don't tell him about my return."
Tian Cang chuckled, "Why would I tell him? Besides, I don't plan to go back either. The Grass-Benevolence Hall is in complete chaos now. It's just a pity for those precious spirit plants."
Mi Xiaojing said, "There's nothing good, just a few cultivation gardens."
Tian Cang said in surprise, "Don't you know? At the back of the Grass-Benevolence Hall, there is a small canyon. Although the area is not large, it has the best spirit plant garden in the sect. It is full of rare spirit herbs and plants transplanted from the wild."
Mi Xiaojing immediately realized the value of these spirit herbs and plants. He asked, "You tell me this... what are you planning?"
Tian Cang laughed, "Actually, it's nothing. You know, these things are useless to me, but you are a Pill Master. Once Qingmu Peak is broken, these things will definitely not be preserved. It's better to..."
Wang Weijun shouted from the Heart Tower, "Go, go! Such a good opportunity, why not go? Some spirit herbs and plants, you may not encounter a second time in your life. A Pill Master needs accumulation!"
Mi Xiaojing was also tempted.
Tian Cang saw it and continued, "Look, I'm not very interested in these spirit herbs and plants. If you can give me some Clear Tranquility Pills or something, I'll take you there and try to get you in... How about it?"
Tian Cang looked at Mi Xiaojing nervously. He knew that Mi Xiaojing had a lot of good things in his pocket. What made him drool the most was various Spirit Pills. Even if a little bit of Spirit Pill leaked from his fingers, it would be enough to save his life.
If he could get some Spirit Pills for cultivation, that would be a big win!
Mi Xiaojing had no sense of belonging to the Heart Sect, nor did he have the heart to fight to the death for the sect. Whether the sect won or was destroyed, he didn't care. However, he was willing to fish in troubled waters. As Wang Weijun said, these things were going to be cheap for others anyway, so he might as well take them himself.
It has to be said that Mi Xiaojing, this pure child, has been gradually corrupted by Wang Weijun. Of course, Mi Xiaojing also has his own bottom line in life, and he will absolutely not do anything that crosses that line.
For example, saving Mu Hengyuan. If it were Wang Weijun, even if he didn't stab him when he was dying, he would definitely not lend a helping hand. Waiting for Mu Hengyuan to explain his martial arts, and then forcibly taking the Elemental Infant would be the right choice. Along with everything Mu Hengyuan carried, they could all be taken away.
Wang Weijun was still dissatisfied with Mi Xiaojing in this respect, because Mi Xiaojing's nature was still kind.
But he also understood Mi Xiaojing's character. Wang Weijun knew that it was useless to say anything. In order not to make Mi Xiaojing disgusted, he wisely did not object and let Mi Xiaojing save people.
Tian Cang asked, "So, are you going or not?"
Mi Xiaojing nodded, "Let's go!"
Tian Cang was overjoyed and said, "Good, it's settled! Let's go!"
The two of them didn't fly, but honestly took the small path through the forest to avoid attracting attention.
After about twenty minutes, they arrived at the back of the Grass-Benevolence Hall. The forest here was dense, with a stream flowing and a waterfall. They walked along the cliff and soon arrived at a pile of rubble.
"It's right behind this!"
Tian Cang pointed to the pile of rubble.
Mi Xiaojing knew this was an illusion and there should be a special Magical Technique to enter. He asked, "How do we get in?"Tian Cang chuckled, saying, "Combining two magical techniques with one incantation will allow us to enter." He taught Mi Xiaojing the magical techniques and incantation, which were extremely simple methods. When combined, they became the key to entering and exiting. The illusionary restriction had no real power; it was merely to prevent outsiders from finding the entrance.
Qingmu Peak was vast. Even if someone found this place, they might not suspect that anything could be behind a pile of rocks. This was a method of concealment to avoid intrusion from outsiders.
Tian Cang quickly performed the magical techniques and recited the incantation. Instantly, the pile of rocks split apart, revealing a winding path. Tian Cang said, "Quick, follow me in!"
Mi Xiaojing followed closely behind Tian Cang, walking along the path. The path was quite long, and it took them a full five minutes to see the cliff walls on both sides getting higher, indicating that they had entered a canyon.
The canyon was unique, with high but narrow sides, no more than thirty to forty meters wide. The top of the canyon was covered by a large number of trees, and with the use of the formation, it was impossible to see the canyon from the outside.
The canyon was not long, about six to seven hundred meters. The bottom was closed off, resembling a flattened gourd, with only one entrance and exit. If discovered, anyone trapped inside would not be able to get out.
Upon entering, they smelled a strange fragrance. It was a Heavenly Fragrance Grass, a very rare spiritual herb. Then they saw a White Source, a Ground Dragon Vine. Mi Xiaojing felt dazzled, as every few steps there would be a rare spiritual herb.
Tian Cang didn't understand, he asked, "How is it?"
Mi Xiaojing's eyes lit up, he said, "Guard the entrance for me. If anyone comes, notify me immediately."
Tian Cang made a reassuring gesture and immediately returned to the entrance, quietly squatting on one side.
Mi Xiaojing began to harvest wildly. Some mature ones were directly put into the box and sealed with a restriction to prevent the medicinal effect from dissipating.
For those that were not mature, Mi Xiaojing used a transplantation technique to temporarily store them. When he found a suitable place in the future, he would replant them.
