The Misty Forest is vast and boundless; shrouded in mist, choosing a location for Refinement is quite simple.

Gu Yuanqing left the territory of the Sanyang Sect and went deep underground, setting up Formation to conceal his presence.

He then took out the Spirit Dragon Fruit and enveloped it with his Divine Soul power.

Dao Fire burned, wisps of its energy flowed into the Divine Soul.

The wandering little dragon seemed to possess Spirituality, letting out a long roar that seemed to resonate like Dragon Roar's cry, attempting to shatter Gu Yuanqing's Divine Soul.

Although its power was considerable, it was no match for Gu Yuanqing.

Under the burning Flame the Divine Soul, in just a moment, the little dragon's Spirituality dissipated, and wisps of warm energy flowed into the Divine Soul.

Gu Yuanqing felt as if his Divine Soul had been parched and then blessed with timely rain, and the Divine Soul Origin was rapidly growing.

This growth rate is far better than any other Restoration Pill I've taken!

It's as if your entire Divine Soul is soaking in warm water, feeling extremely comfortable!

His Divine Soul was already incredibly powerful; otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to support such a vast Heavenly Human World. These two-tenths of his Divine Soul Origin were extraordinary.

He felt his mind was clear, and his thoughts were working a little faster.

"It truly is a great elixir for the Divine Soul; no wonder the Sanyang Sect has stationed Celestial Person- level experts here for an extended period."

Moreover, after Refinement this fruit, it will not have the defects and harms that come with Refinement Dao Soul.

Without hesitation, he picked up another Spirit Dragon Fruit.

The Refinement also took half a day.

However, this time the harvest was much smaller than the first one, less than half of the first one.

Then it Refinement the Conjoined Twin Flower.

The flower was one red and one white. After being enveloped by the Divine Soul, the red flower transformed into a raging fire, while the white flower transformed into a chilling aura that seemed to freeze the Divine Soul.

The two, one yin and one yang, transform into the shape of Taiji within the Divine Soul.

Amidst the extremes of ice and fire, Gu Yuanqing's Divine Soul Origin began to grow continuously once again.

It took a day to Refinement the Conjoined Twin Flower.

After taking the three Divine Soul Great Medicine, Gu Yuanqing felt his Divine Soul become much more refined, and his control over the Heavenly Human World seemed to have become much easier.

I hadn't realized it before, but now, in comparison, it feels as if I was carrying a heavy burden.

Although the growth of Divine Soul Origin will not immediately manifest in strength, a profound essence will inevitably lead to a rapid increase in the power of one's Divine Soul.

This will make enlightenment easier and manipulation of Spell Art more effortless.

After Refinement, Gu Yuanqing did not rush to get up, but instead sat quietly to sense the changes in his Divine Soul.

"After consuming the Spirit Dragon Fruit, my understanding of the elements of wind, thunder, and rain seems to have become more acute, while the Conjoined Twin Flower have Empowerment my understanding of the Fire Dao. The Red Flower represents Yang Fire, while the hundred flowers appear to be cold, but are actually Yin Fire. This flower even contains a trace of the power of both Yin-Yang and yang. No wonder the person in charge is Split Soul of a master at the Three Tribulations of Heavenly Change Realm."

Gu Yuanqing sat in meditation for a full five days before getting up. However, he did not complete his cultivation; rather, some secret marks he had set up remotely were triggered.

"The Sanyang Sect is indeed not to be underestimated. I hid so far away, yet they still managed to find traces of me."

He used Evasion Technique to emerge from the ground and secretly probed the area with his Divine Sense.

After a moment, he chuckled silently.

"The people who came were indeed from the Sanyang Sect, but they weren't here for me."

Five people were seen approaching from a distance: four men and one woman.

Two Three Tribulations of Heavenly Change, and three masters who Two Tribulations of Heavenly Change

The leader was very familiar to me; he was none other than Zhu Qingyu, the Peak Master of Chaoyang Peak.

None of them traveled in the air; instead, they concealed their presence and walked through the forest.

As Gu Yuanqing looked over, Zhu Qingyu suddenly raised his right hand, signaling to stop.

The other four immediately became alert and secretly circulated their True Essence.

"Peak Master, what's wrong?" a middle-aged woman asked in a low voice.

Zhu Qingyu frowned slightly, focused his Pupil Technique to scan the surroundings, and after a long while, lowered his voice and slowly said, "It seems someone is spying on us. Perhaps it's that guy surnamed Gu, or perhaps it's Demon Beast."

"That guy surnamed Gu shouldn't have that kind of guts. We have so many experts here; if he dares to show up, we can just take him down."

"That's right, he only dares to attack lone individuals in secret. However, everyone must be extra careful. This Spirit Phoenix Grass has been cultivated for eight hundred years and is nearing maturity; it cannot be lost."

"Spirit Phoenix Grass? Another Divine Soul Great Medicine?"

Fearing discovery, Gu Yuanqing dared not get too close, nor did he dare to probe with his Divine Sense; he merely watched from afar with his Void Piercing Heavenly Eye.

"The fact that so many experts were dispatched at this critical juncture to harvest it suggests that this medicinal herb is extraordinary; it must be at least Upper Earth Tier, or even Heavenly Grade, Divine Soul Great Medicine."

Gu Yuanqing became interested. He didn't know what grade the Divine Soul Great Medicine Refinement a few days ago was, but it seemed that none of them were as good as this Spirit Phoenix Grass.

Besides, he was always eager to get involved in anything the Sanyang Sect wanted, even if he couldn't get it in the end, ruining it would still be a good thing.

Gu Yuanqing followed at a great distance, and very carefully.

Zhu Qingyu and the others sensed something was amiss, but were unwilling to abandon their mission. They secretly exchanged messages and remained cautious.

Gu Yuanqing remained calm. Even if these people guessed that he was the one following behind, so what?

Indeed, given the combined strength of these five individuals, it would be difficult for him to forcibly intercept and kill them, but it would also be impossible for them to kill him.

Both groups of people, one in front and one behind, quickly moved forward.

The further they went, the quieter the surroundings became, and they could faintly sense a powerful Yao Qi looming in the distance.

Most powerful Divine Soul Great Medicine are guarded by Demon Beast, waiting to be devoured once they mature.

Zhu Qingyu and the others became even more cautious, concealing their auras completely and revealing nothing.

Gu Yuanqing also sensed the Yao Qi. He hadn't expected that such a Great Demon would be nearby when he randomly chose a place.

A moment later, Zhu Qingyu crossed a high mountain and arrived at the side of a huge Valley, where he met up with another person who was hiding there. This person was also quite powerful, having undergone the Two Tribulations of Heavenly Change.

Upon entering the valley, the mist suddenly vanished, and the air was faintly tinged with heat.

Within the valley, there are numerous lakes of varying sizes, their waters displaying a spectrum of colors, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene. This reminded Gu Yuanqing of a place in his previous life known as a place See No More Waters After Returning scenery after visiting it.

"That's it!"

Gu Yuanqing's gaze quickly locked onto the center of the lake at the top of the Valley, where a huge, dark red, dragon-shaped creature was coiled.

In the middle of its coiled body, a small grass, about three inches tall, swayed in the Qingfeng.

The grass was entirely blood red, except for a hint of green on the very tip of the leaves.

A delicate fragrance wafts out, making one's mouth water, while a hint of spiciness follows as it enters the lungs.

"Nice one!"

Gu Yuanqing's eyes lit up, realizing that this was the object the people from the Sanyang Sect were after.

The members of the Sanyang Sect did not rush to make a move. They scattered around, remaining on guard and concealing their auras so as not to awaken the seemingly maturing Demon Beast.

Two days passed, and the last bit of green on the tip of that little blade of grass was about to disappear.

The Demon Beast seemed to sense something and woke up.

Zhu Qingyu immediately made a hand gesture, and the six of them quickly and stealthily moved forward at the same time.

Gu Yuanqing's figure then appeared in the Valley.
