Gathering Resources

"Senior brother, that guy is right here. Are we just going to let it go like this?"

"You know, several of our fellow disciples died at his hands."

"Alright, alright, enough babbling. If you're so capable, go get your revenge yourself." The leader waved his hand and collected a blood ginseng, his expression extremely displeased. "Don't forget, we came here to collect as many resources as possible, not to fight."

"Besides, that guy is now at the Golden Core Peak, and he also has a sword formation made of Law Treasure. How are we supposed to fight him? Who will die, you or me?"

"Damn it, that flying Sword Bamboo of his is definitely a treasure left behind by the Ji Household, damn it!" The man who spoke earlier said with a somewhat sinister expression, while casually smashing a thousand-fragrant mushroom that another person was just about to put away.

The leader immediately shouted, "Fang Kuan, you better control your temper! I know you were humiliated at the Yaoguang Immortal Sect, but if you dare to take your anger out on us, don't blame us for disregarding our fellow disciples!"

Fang Kuan was taken aback for a moment, glanced at his fellow disciples around him, whose faces all showed some displeasure, hesitated for a moment, and then lowered his head to apologize, "I'm sorry, I couldn't control my emotions."

"You'd better understand that that person is no longer someone we can kill as easily as we want. You'd better put away those deadly thoughts of yours."

The leader said something coldly, then turned and continued forward.

On the other side, Shen Ge ventured deeper into the region, which was about three thousand miles away. Along the way, he encountered more spirit medicine herbs and plants, but correspondingly, the number of demonic Demon Beast around him also increased. First and second-tier Demon Beast were everywhere, and third-tier ones would occasionally appear.

However, Shen Ge's concealment skills were quite good, and he avoided some unnecessary battles. Even so, he still killed three third-tier Demon Beast.

He took the initiative to attack one of the Qi-Gathering Snake, specifically for its Qi-gathering core. As for the other two, they were drawn in by the battle.

If Shen Ge hadn't been quite strong, he would likely have been either killed or seriously injured if surrounded and attacked by three third-tier Demon Beast.

"Once we get out of here, we'll refine a Qi-Gathering Pearl from this core; it'll be perfect for Fengge."

Now that Zhang Fengge is about to break through to the Golden Core stage, Shen Ge, as her master, must prepare a Law Treasure for her.

Well, although his master didn't prepare this for him, Shen Ge is now wealthy, and he can still afford to give away a Law Treasure.

"The Demon Beast here are getting stronger and stronger. That Qi-Gathering Snake already has the strength of the Late Golden Core Stage stage. I'm afraid we'll encounter a Golden Core Peak Demon Beast a thousand miles further in."

"No wonder all the sects in the entire Luo Heaven Sea region combined could only advance 150,000 li; it seems there's a reason for it."

"The overall strength of this secret realm probably far surpasses that of the entire Luo Heaven Sea, and even if you add in the Demon Beast from the Outer Sea, they might not be able to compare."

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed past Shen Ge's eyes like lightning. He immediately looked around warily, Sword Yi appeared behind him, and sword formations surrounded him. Then, he extended his Divine Sense inch by inch in all directions.

The dark figure was moving too fast; it was so fast that he could only see a blurry afterimage and couldn't make out what it was at all.

Moreover, he was very well concealed; if he hadn't appeared once, Shen Ge wouldn't have noticed his presence at all.

Shen Ge searched the surrounding five miles but still found nothing, as if the dark figure had simply vanished as a passerby.

Unconvinced, Shen Ge expanded his exploration area again, extending it to twenty miles, but still found nothing, not even a single third-tier Demon Beast.

"What exactly is that thing? What does it mean that it suddenly appeared in front of me and flashed like that?"

Shen Ge's expression was slightly gloomy; this unknown thing made him feel uneasy.

After waiting for a while and seeing that nothing had really happened, Shen Ge quickly left this area, traveling a thousand miles before stopping.

However, the reason Shen Ge stopped was because he encountered something wonderful, something that even tempted him—a Dragon Ginseng that was five thousand years old!

However, such a treasure is not so easy to obtain. Although it grows openly next to a giant rock, the three Dragon Lizard exuding a strong aura of Sha Qi beside it are not so easy to mess with.

If his Mountain and River Cauldron hadn't been destroyed, Shen Ge could have simply gone over and taken the Dragon Ginseng and retreated safely. But now that he no longer had that top-grade defensive Law Treasure, he didn't dare to go straight in. This was a matter of life and death, and he couldn't take it lightly.

"Three Peak Third Tier Dragon Lizard, this is going to be tricky."

The Dragon Lizard is considered one of the more well-rounded Demon Beast among all third-tier Demon Beast. Its attack, defense, and speed are all top-notch, and its entire body is a treasure. Shen Ge Shen Ge could kill one, but with three of them together, he wouldn't dare to confront them head-on.

Should we lure them away?

Although the Dragon Lizard are quite fast, they are still a little slower than Shen Ge. Luring them away is the best solution right now.

Shen Ge thought for a moment, then took out a talisman shaped like a little person. He dripped a drop of golden blood onto it, and the talisman immediately came to life after absorbing it.

"Go."

The talisman flew out and transformed into Shen Ge's appearance in the air, with the same aura.

Suddenly a person appeared, and the three Dragon Lizard lizards immediately turned their heads to look at him, emanating a violent aura.

Fu Zhuan Shen Ge formed hand Hand Seals, drawing upon a surge of violent spiritual power, seemingly preparing for a massive attack.

Upon seeing this, two of the three Dragon Lizard pounced directly at it, while the other protected the Dragon Ginseng.

They weren't all lured away!

However, Shen Ge didn't plan to wait any longer. He immediately concealed himself and swiftly crept over.

Upon approaching, the remaining Dragon Lizard sensed something was wrong and immediately breathed dragon breath at the hidden Shen Ge.

Shen Ge remained calm and immediately activated the sword formation, unleashing a dense array of Swordsmanship that together formed a long Sword Qi Long River.

On the other side, the two Dragon Lizard that had torn the talisman to shreds were rushing back at top speed, their somewhat ugly faces displaying a surprisingly human-like expression of anger.

The Dragon Lizard that remained behind was repelled by the sword formation and was even wounded. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Ge grabbed the Dragon Ginseng.

Just as Shen Ge was about to touch it, a dark shadow appeared out of nowhere and snatched the Dragon Ginseng, leaving only a faint gnawing sound in the air.

Damn it, it's that dark figure from before! It's still following me!

Shen Ge was both shocked and furious, but at this moment he dared not stay and face the wrath of the three Dragon Lizard, so he could only choose to flee.

"Roar!"

Three roars rang out simultaneously. Even though Shen Ge didn't understand animal language, he could clearly sense the fury. So he forcibly increased his speed even more.
