Shen Luo raised his arms and punched, tried to move his wrists, and found that except for a slight feeling of weight, it did not restrict his movements too much. He turned around and left the cave room, followed the water rope outside the cave, and returned to the ground.

He stood at the bottom of the cliff, thought for a moment, and remembered what he had seen before when he climbed up. There was a white square a little further ahead on the left, and there were many buildings nearby, so he hurried towards that direction.

He walked through the mountains and forests, with only the sound of wind in his ears, but he still didn't see any living things. His Divine Sense was released from time to time, sensing the changes around him.

After more than half an hour, the sun's shadow gradually slanted westward, and the sky gradually darkened.

At this time, Shen Luo walked to a green bamboo forest, and suddenly his nose wrinkled and he smelled a faint aroma of vegetation.

As soon as the smell entered his nose, he was refreshed, as if the fatigue of running around during this period was immediately relieved.

He frowned slightly and quickly followed the scent, passing through the green bamboo forest in a short time.

Outside the bamboo forest, a white hollow flower wall can be seen in the distance, extending in a circle, forming an independent area, from which the aroma of grass and trees comes out.

Shen Luo Walked along the forest path to the flower wall. Through the holes in the wall, you could see that it was overgrown with weeds and deserted.

He walked along the wall for another hundred or so steps and came to a circular arch.

The arch is no more than ten feet high, and the top is covered with glazed tiles. Below it hangs a peeling paint plaque with the two characters "Hundred Herbs Valley" engraved on it. In the center of the two characters, there is also a piece of Octagonal Bronze Mirror about a foot square.

Shen Luo looked at it carefully and found that Octagonal Bronze Mirror is very exquisite in workmanship. There is a Tai Chi Pisces pattern in the center of the mirror, and it is also surrounded by a circle of complicated runes. It is not vulgar at first glance.

But it is a pity that the Octagonal Bronze Mirror is covered with spider web cracks and is very seriously damaged. There is no spiritual power fluctuation detected on it. Even if it is a Magical Artifact, it has been completely destroyed.

Shen Luo walked through the arch and entered Hundred Herbs Valley. At a glance, a large medicinal field was seen. Although it was covered by thick weeds, one could still see the neat traces of the original field divisions.

"There should be the legendary elixir, fairy grass, in the medicine garden of the Xianjia sect, right?" Shen Luo said to himself and walked inward along the field ridge.

In a medicinal field near the door, there were thick basil and lush weeds. Shen Luo searched for a long time with his eyes wide open, but he could not find any medicinal herbs with any spiritual energy, not even useful medicinal herbs that could be found in ordinary markets.

He shook his head and continued to explore the medicine fields inside. He searched one medicine field after another, searching seven or eight fields at once, but found nothing.

"It shouldn't be!" Shen Luo said secretly.

He walked into one of the medicinal fields, pushed aside a clump of weeds, and looked underneath.

I could see that the soil below was burnt yellow in color and dry and hardened. It didn't look like ordinary land. It didn't look like the fertile soil of a medicinal field.

Shen Luo frowned slightly, pulled out the clump of weeds, and looked over the ground below. A flash of surprise flashed in his eyes. It turned out that under the layer of burnt yellow dry soil, there was actually a layer of cooked soil that had been burnt.

"What exactly happened here back then?" Shen Luo straightened up, looked around, and said with some emotion.

The foundation of the medicine field that had been burned by fire had naturally been destroyed, and it was impossible for any elixir to grow anymore. He did not intend to continue to waste time here, and went directly to the center of Hundred Herbs Valley, following the aroma of the grass and trees.

After walking through seven or eight medicinal fields, when passing a slightly raised place on the ground, Shen Luo's eyes suddenly flashed, and from the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a pale yellow Xiao Hua growing among the weeds in the field.

He immediately stopped, leaned down and inspected it for a moment, then frowned slightly.

Then, he stretched out his fingers and tapped on the petals, then put it under the tip of his nose, sniffed gently, and then a smile appeared on his face and said:

"One flower has four leaves, the leaves have seven veins, and the peanut has four petals. It is tasteless to smell, but has sandalwood to the touch... It is indeed the Four-Leaf Flower mentioned in the book. I didn't expect that there were still fish that slipped through the net!"

Although Shen Luo has read a lot, he doesn't know many spiritual herbs. The Four-Leaf Flower in front of him happens to be one of them. Taking this material can strengthen qi and blood and build vitality. It is a necessary spiritual material for refining the elixir Golden Fragrant Jade.

However, judging from the depth and color of the veins on the flower, the growth time is not long, no more than thirty years. The medicinal power is relatively limited, and it is not yet up to the standard for refining Golden Fragrant Jade.

"The medicinal properties are not too strong. I just want to take it back and cook a pot of medicinal soup for the Chen Guanbao children. It will also help them strengthen their energy and blood. Their health will be better, and they may be able to practice Daoism in the future." Shen Luo thought like this, and carefully dug out the roots of the Four-Leaf Flower plant.

After the elixir left the soil, the luster on the surface immediately dimmed, but it did not wither immediately. Instead, a layer of waxy film was formed on the surface to seal the body.

Shen Luo was overjoyed when he saw it, and put it in his arms. Unconsciously, he had some expectations for the medicine field.

While looking inside for the source of the aroma of the grass and trees, he did not forget to continue checking to see if there were any other Four-Leaf Flower. Although he could not find Four-Leaf Flower, he dug out three yams that were one foot long.

Shen Luo Break open one of the yam and split it to both sides. The slender silk threads are immediately pulled out from the break. The top is shining with a light golden luster, and the flowing body fluid also exudes a refreshing fragrance.

"Could this also be a magical medicine?" Shen Luo noticed that there were traces of spiritual energy lingering on the yam, and wondered in his heart.

After that, he picked up a layer of water vapor, washed the yam clean, and then bit it.

There was a crisp sound of "click", and a stream of sweet juice immediately filled Shen Luo's teeth and cheeks, and then a ray of cool air spread down from the throat, penetrated deep into the abdomen, and turned into a warm current, which merged into Dantian.

"It actually has the ability to replenish Magic Power!"

Shen Luo was so pleasantly surprised that he immediately ate up the whole yam.

He held the remaining two yams in his hands and salivated for a long time. He couldn't bear to eat them all at once. He put them in his sleeves and continued to search.

But in the following time, he searched for more than a dozen medicinal fields, but found nothing.

At this time, the surrounding sky had completely darkened. Shen Luo saw a bright red light standing straight in the central area of Hundred Herbs Valley in the distance, with scattered light blue lights scattered around.

His eyes flashed and he immediately quickened his pace to catch up.

As he approached, he saw a strange tree about the thickness of an arm and three or four feet high standing in the center of the area.
