The Celestial Water Sect's Fifth Order Spirit Herb Garden lay atop a small mountain at the very center of Lake Heart Island.
The mountain was named Celestial Water Peak. Ordinarily, only its two Nascent Soul Cultivators and the Celestial Water Sect cultivators responsible for nurturing spirit plants were allowed to remain on the peak.
As for the other cultivators, they had built sect halls, courtyards, and cave residences around Celestial Water Peak as the center.
Celestial Water Peak was likewise protected by a Fifth Order Formation. However, unlike the Mountain Protection Array, this Fifth Order Formation had only one purpose: defense.
It could ensure that even if the Celestial Water Sect came under its fiercest attack, these spirit herbs would remain unharmed.
When Ye Jingcheng launched his full-scale assault, quite a few Celestial Water Sect cultivators had tried to fish in troubled waters and take away some spirit herbs.
However, Ye Jingcheng had long ordered Peach Wood to infiltrate the Spirit Herb Garden's formation, while half of the Soul Devouring Insects had also been stationed here.
They turned into an insect cloud, spreading across the skies and earth as they surrounded the Spirit Herb Garden.
Like an insect hood, they shrouded the place, slaughtering every cultivator who tried to damage the spirit herbs.
Besides these spirit insects, Ye Jingcheng's Six-Colored Cloud Deer had also flown here to protect the Spirit Herb Garden.
When Ye Jingcheng arrived, the spirit insects immediately parted to form a small entrance.
Ye Jingcheng stepped inside, and the entire Spirit Herb Garden immediately unfolded before his eyes. The Fifth Order Spirit Herb Garden was not small, and Spirit Gathering Arrays had been arranged everywhere, making it shimmer with flowing light and extraordinary spiritual energy.
Yet despite its considerable area, there were not many spirit herbs inside.
