Chapter 51 - Herb Harvest

After using the probing technique for a while, Yue Xun was also exhausted. He waited for it to recover a bit before asking: "How is it?"

Yue Xun struggled to raise his hand and waved it. Without saying a word, the Holy Seal of the Pu Du Clan inside his body released a golden light that wrapped around it. Afterwards, the light dissipated and its body disappeared before Lu Yang and Jiang Xinyu's eyes.

"Hmm?" Jiang Xinyu was slightly startled.

"Don't worry," Lu Yang explained, "Xiao Yueyue is fine, she's just too tired, she went back to recuperate."

As for where to go, Lu Yang did not say anything, and Jiang Xinyu did not plan to ask either.

At this time, a tiny golden light flew out from the Devil Subduing Heavenly Book, and with a thought, that information current appeared in Lu Yang's mind.

It was a circular picture, and on it were hundreds of densely packed red dots.

Lu Yang smiled as he understood: "It really did not disappoint us, we have already found all the spiritual medicines in a hundred mile radius. From now on, we just need to follow the map and search."

After Jiang Xinyu heard this, a few not so obvious traces of happiness surfaced on her cold face.

The morning sky brightened up very quickly, Lu Yang and Luo Hua City Mistress did not continue to rest, but instead, after resting for a bit, they left together to search for Spirit medicine.

It had to be said that although Yue Xun looked a little unreliable, his detection abilities were not sloppy at all. The map that he gave Lu Yang could be said to be extremely accurate without a single mistake.

After a few days, Lu Yang had already collected over a hundred medicinal herbs, and his harvest was even more than when the Jiang Family team entered the mountain.

Lu Yang's skillful herb picking skills also caused Jiang Xinyu, who was observing from the side, to be extremely surprised — The spirit medicine he collected, was actually not damaged in the slightest!

It had to be known that there were a lot of different types of Spirit Medicines, and there was no lack of rare and precious types among them. Ordinary cultivators who did not understand would forcefully pick them, and they would easily cause harm to the Spirit Medicines, causing the price of the medicine to be greatly reduced. But Lu Yang's men did not even make a single mistake!

To be able to reach such a level, one must be a cultivator who was familiar with the characteristics of all kinds of medicinal herbs … Alchemists.

Thinking about it, Jiang Xinyu could not help but look at Lu Yang a few more times.

Lu Yang was digging for a Stone Root Flower.

On the surface, this elixir looked like a flower growing in a crack in the stone, but in reality, its roots were embedded in the stone.

Lu Yang was clearly aware of this point, he did not pull the Stone Root Flower up from the ground, but rather used his palm to break the growing Stone Root Flower stone, and gradually dispersed the stone outside, finally using his spirit fire to refine the stone fragments that were entangled with the roots.

That's right, it was spirit fire!

Although Spiritual Spring Realm cultivators possessed the ability to condense Spirit Fire, it was still extremely difficult to control the fire according to one's own will. One would need to undergo years of tough cultivation to be able to control the use of the Spirit Element to the point where it could be controlled as they wished.

And this young Lu Yang, was actually able to do such a thing!

"Could he be an alchemist?"

This reasonable guess appeared in Jiang Xinyu's heart, and she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

The position of an alchemist was simply too revered. Even after losing their Patriarch, their Jiang Family could barely hold out for so long, and all they relied on was that alchemist who resided in the Gathered Treasure House.

Lu Yang did not notice the change in Jiang Xinyu's expression, as he continued to carefully refine the stone fragments from the roots of the Stone Root Flower.

Jiang Xinyu, on the other hand, quietly watched Lu Yang perform his technique, and naturally cast his gaze towards his hand. It was a rather thin and slender hand, and the flame that was floating on his palm illuminated his palm, making it look very warm.

After concentrating for half an incense of time, the broken stones had finally been completely refined. Lu Yang then waved the thing in his hand towards Jiang Xinyu: "This kind of spiritual medicine has an extremely good effect on the damage to the meridians."

With that, he kept the fifth grade spirit herb into the Cosmic Bag.

"Alright, let's head to the next location."

Lu Yang said to Jiang Xinyu with a smile. The two of them moved and directly rushed into the valley in front.

The map that Yue Xun had given his was all in Lu Yang's mind, Jiang Xinyu did not ask, and followed silently.

An hour later, the two of them entered the depths of the valley and stopped.

"It should be somewhere nearby."

Lu Yang scanned left and right, and the marking Yue Xun gave was only a rough outline. After all, within a few hundred kilometers of exploration area, it was impossible to be precise.

Jiang Xinyu nodded, and the two split up to search the area.

However, Yue Xun, who had never made any mistakes, seemed to have met with a mishap this time. The two searched for a long time, and practically searched the entire valley multiple times, but didn't find even the shadow of a single spirit medicine.

"Did something go wrong with the map?" Jiang Xinyu asked.

Lu Yang muttered and shook his head, "I don't think so, the map that Xiao Yueyue gave me was formed in his mind and transmitted to my mind through the sacred seal he gave me. There is nothing wrong with this process …"

Jiang Xinyu frowned, she saw Lu Yang's gaze suddenly flash past.

Without waiting for her to ask, Lu Yang had already rushed out. Even though Jiang Xinyu did not understand, she still followed closely behind.

Lu Yang didn't walk too far, he only came to a stop about twenty five meters behind Jiang Xinyu.

Jiang Xinyu walked up and saw Lu Yang staring at the snake corpse beneath his feet.

It was the corpse of a Two-headed Golden-Ringed Snake. Although this kind of Magical Beast had Spiritual Spring Level, its attack power was very ordinary and had no poison, so it posed no threat to ordinary cultivators.

"Did you kill this Golden-Ringed Twin-headed Snake?" Lu Yang stared at the corpse and asked.

"No," Jiang Xinyu replied, "When I was searching around this area, it died here."

Jiang Xinyu also realized that there must be something wrong with the snake corpse, so he carefully examined it.

She discovered that there was a strange wound on the back of the snake. The flesh was torn apart, but the fatal wound was actually two severed snake heads. The wound was very new, but no blood flowed out.

"No wonder we couldn't find any spiritual medicines from the valley even after searching for so long. So it turns out that …" Someone got there first! " Lu Yang's words surprised him.

"Why do you say that?" Jiang Xinyu asked.

"This snake was clearly decapitated not too long ago. Since it wasn't us, it means that there must be a third person in the valley." Lu Yang revealed his deduction.

Jiang Xinyu had already thought of this point, what she did not understand was how Lu Yang saw that the spirit medicine had been taken by someone.

Without waiting for Jiang Xinyu to speak, Lu Yang revealed the answer himself: "The wound on the snake's back is proof that the spirit medicine has been collected."

Jiang Xinyu's pupils shrank slightly: "Are you saying that the spirit medicine was originally grown on the back of this snake?"

Lu Yang nodded, "To be exact, it grew inside the snake corpse's body … He died before his head was cut off. "

Jiang Xinyu coincidentally knew of a medicinal ingredient that grew in the body of a Magical Beast and killed its host when it matured …

"Dragonblood Herb!" Jiang Xinyu's voice trembled slightly.

Lu Yang slowly nodded his head, then shook his head, "The Golden-Ringed Twin-headed Snake does indeed have an extremely thin dragon bloodline, and the golden ring on its neck is the characteristic of the Golden Dragon bloodline. But other than that, this kind of Monster does not inherit any other kind of bloodline power …"

Lu Yang continued: "From this, we can conclude that what grew out of its body was a Dragonblood Herb, but …."

As he said till here, Lu Yang's face also became somewhat grave.
