Seeing that Yi Yun seemed somewhat interested in the Luo Huo Association, Zhao Qingcheng felt a little smug. She said, "Hehe, little brother, it's hard to survive in Tai'a Divine City without joining a guild. How about it, are you interested in joining our Luo Huo Association? We're very strict about recruiting! But with your big sister introducing you, you should be able to become a probationary member directly!"

Zhao Qingcheng extended an olive branch to Yi Yun shook his head and said, "No, I'm still single."

Prospective member? Are you kidding me? I don't even want to be a full member!

Although Yi Yun thought this way, he still wore an innocent smile on his face.

In fact, Yi Yun knew that given his current situation—a complete novice, a brat carrying a medicine basket, looking like a poor peasant—nobody would want to take him in!

"Okay, from now on, if you ever get bullied, I'll protect you, hee hee!"

Zhao Qingcheng winked at Yi Yun, and then flew away with her girlfriends like a flock of larks.

Yi Yun was left staring blankly at the booklet. It seemed that the Primordial Relic Medicine were quite difficult to collect. He thought it would be more reliable to try to find some Heaven Tier herbs, or Earth Tier herbs would do.

However, you shouldn't collect too much or too excessively; just enough is fine.

As Yi Yun was thinking, a loud roar suddenly came from behind him—

"Are you done? If you're done, then stop blocking the way! Go find somewhere cool to stay!"

Yi Yun was startled and turned around to see the Woman surnamed Wang picking up the mirror again with one hand and impatiently slapping the table with the other.

"Is this woman... going through menopause?" Yi Yun thought maliciously. He felt it wasn't worth arguing with this grumpy woman. Well... the main reason was that he couldn't win an argument with her; he couldn't fight city hall. After all, he was a newcomer to Tai'a Divine City, good for nothing. He was just a nobody wherever he went.

However, Yi Yun didn't care. He was in a great mood at the moment. Who said that gathering herbs had no future? He already had a goal to strive for.

And so, Yi Yun, carrying a medicine basket half his height and a medicine sickle, walked out of the servants' quarters.

Wearing this incredibly outdated outfit, Yi Yun walked through the streets of Tai'a Divine City, amidst the strange, disdainful, and incomprehensible gazes of everyone else, until he reached the teleportation point of Medicine Mountain.

When it came time to actually gather herbs, Yi Yun realized that the idea of inviting girls along while gathering herbs was completely unrealistic.

The medicinal mountains of Tai'a Divine City are divided into many sections, each of which is enormous, and the different medicinal mountains are separated by formations, making passage impossible.

A medicinal mountain is a vast Spiritual Ground spanning hundreds or even thousands of miles, surrounded by a Spiritual Ground -Spirit Gathering Grand Array.

With such Spiritual Qi rich mountains and rivers, coupled with the protection of the formation, it's impossible for ordinary wild beasts to break in.

Within the Medicine Mountain, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are nurtured. These Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are widely distributed among sheer cliffs, deep valleys, Divine Mountain, and great rivers.

The herb gatherer is randomly teleported to a specific medicinal mountain. He will be the only person on the entire mountain. After gathering the herbs, the herb gatherer can only leave the medicinal mountain through the teleportation array and return to Tai'a Divine City.

Upon returning to Tai'a Divine City, all medicines must be handed over, and the Dragon Scale Rune reward will be calculated.

Therefore, medicinal herbs collected in the medicinal mountain cannot be traded or kept privately.

Even before martial artists go to gather herbs, they must be searched to prevent unscrupulous individuals from exchanging pre-prepared herbs for Dragon Scale Rune.

Under these various rules, herb gathering is destined to be a lonely and tedious job, which explains why few people are willing to do it.

However, this was exactly what Yi Yun wanted.

Inside the teleportation array, a shower of light appeared around him, and a violent wind swirled up. Yi Yun felt as if the world had shifted, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already at the foot of an unfamiliar mountain.

Looking around, Yi Yun secretly clicked his tongue in amazement.

During his time in Yunhuang, Yi Yun had seen many magnificent mountains, but none of them could compare to the peak in front of him.

The mountains in front of me are so high they seem to reach the clouds, their peaks stretching endlessly into the distance.

From a distance of several dozen miles, the mountain peaks were shrouded in mist and clouds, appearing hazy and indistinct.

At the foot of the mountain, dense vegetation grows. Not to mention the large trees, even the wormwood under the trees is taller than a person. It grows thick and dense, like swords and spears.

The jagged rocks that rolled down from the foot of the mountain, each piece resembling Meteorite Iron from outer space, were as big as houses and as hard as refined steel.

These vast, boundless mountains evoke a sense of insignificance in one's heart.

"What a magnificent mountain range! It's truly a blessed land!" Yi Yun exclaimed inwardly. The so-called 'medicine fields' of Tai'a Divine City were truly spectacular. For a person to be teleported into a medicinal mountain was like a drop in the ocean!

Such a vast Divine Mountain contains endless treasures, which can be obtained with enough good fortune.

"Such a vast medicinal mountain, and more than one... Tai'a Divine City certainly has a grand vision... I wonder what kind of herbs I'll be able to gather here?"

Yi Yun increasingly felt that choosing to gather herbs as his menial task was the right decision.

Pushing aside the tall grass that was much taller than himself, Yi Yun walked deeper into the medicinal mountain. The air here was hazy and misty, filled with the medicinal fragrance that smelled like milk.

The fragrance seeps into the body, feeling as if every pore is being cleansed by nectar, bringing inexplicable comfort and pleasure.

In such a place, let alone picking medicinal herbs, even without picking any, simply meditating and cultivating oneself would be very beneficial.

Let's begin!

Yi Yun stretched his body and rubbed his wrists, feeling that he was in peak condition! This vast and boundless medicinal mountain, brimming with treasures, filled Yi Yun with boundless pride!

Connecting his spiritual power to the Purple Crystal, Yi Yun's vision gradually became a hazy white. In Yi Yun's vision, some places had a slightly denser radiance, while others had a sparser radiance, which meant that the concentration of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi was different in different areas.

Yi Yun naturally headed towards a place where the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi was more abundant.

With a thought, a strange change silently occurred within his Flowing Silver Shirt.

Waves of gravity began to surge forth like a tidal wave, crushing every inch of Yi Yun's skin.

Soon, with a soft "thud, "Yi Yun's legs crushed the hard rocks beneath his feet!

Click click click!

Some cracks on the rocks spread outwards from Yi Yun as the center.

Yi Yun felt as if he were carrying a mountain on his back, adjusting the weight of the Flowing Silver Shirt to two hundred cauldrons.

His back was bent slightly under the weight, making him look like a lithe cheetah, poised to pounce!

Yi Yun's maximum load for frog jumps is 350 ding (a unit of weight), but climbing Medicine Mountain is much more difficult than frog jumps. If he were to carry 350 ding, Yi Yun's stamina would be quickly depleted.

Yi Yun not only had to gather herbs, but he also had to train his physical strength during the process, constantly pushing himself to his limits.

Time was of the essence, and the competition in Tai'a Divine City was fierce. Yi Yun had to seize every minute and second to cultivate, and even gathering herbs was a rare opportunity for spiritual practice.

The fact that Yi Yun was able to stand out from Yunhuang in such a short time, growing from an ordinary boy to where he is now, is beyond the power of the word "miracle." The reason for this is, of course, because Yi Yun possesses the Origin Purple Crystal. However, in addition to possessing the Origin Purple Crystal, Yi Yun's hard work and his grasp of timing are also crucial. Yi Yun has seized almost every opportunity to cultivate.

Climbing such a high mountain, wearing the Two Hundred Cauldrons Flowing Silver Shirt, is quite a challenge. After all, the rocks of Medicine Mountain are not like the specially made floor tiles of Tai'a Divine City; the weight of two hundred cauldrons is enough to crush these rocks to dust!

Taking a deep breath, Yi Yun focused his energy into his dantian, and his bones began to crackle. The power that had reached the peak of the early stage of Purple Blood began to slowly ignite.

Supported by his surging blood and qi, Yi Yun darted out like a nimble cheetah!

The Medicine Mountain of Tai'a Divine City holds endless treasures and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, waiting for Yi Yun to discover them.

Yi Yun was filled with anticipation and longing; Yi Yun martial arts journey had thus begun a truly remarkable chapter.

[The previous chapter was supposed to be asking for monthly tickets for "Martial World," but it should have been "True Martial World," and it's an indelible habit that I still occasionally write "Yi Yun" as "Lin Ming." Anyway, "Martial World" is finished, so asking for monthly tickets is useless now. Use your monthly tickets for "True Martial World" instead.]
