Chapter 1402: Herbal Field

"Bang!"

When the sixteen Golden Armored Warriors stepped into the sixteen grooves, a loud noise suddenly reverberated. Immediately following this, the grooves emitted a golden light, enveloping the sixteen Golden Armored Warriors completely. Sixteen golden shadows appeared on the wall, and the warriors vanished without a trace.

Just as this scene unfolded, changes began within the corridor from which the Golden Armored Warriors came. Originally pitch-black, the passageway started to glow with golden light, and the mechanisms inside had disappeared.

"Alright, let’s go in."

Seeing that everything seemed alright, Lin Feng addressed the group. After speaking, he stepped towards the passageway. Xia Lalan and the others, including the Hidden World cultivators, were quick to follow him through the right door.

Seeing Lin Feng and the others enter, Su Zhong immediately wanted to follow them inside. If there was any danger, Lin Feng wouldn’t be leading everyone in, so Su Zhong wasn’t worried at all. But before he could move, Wang Batian slipped in ahead of him, irritating Su Zhong immensely. If it weren’t for being uncertain about what lay ahead, he would have already gathered everyone to confront Wang Batian. With a dark expression, he gestured to those behind him and marched through the right door.

As everyone entered through the right door and saw the scene inside the hall, their hearts suddenly became clear. In that instant, they understood the true intention of the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal. To get through, one must transform beans into Golden Armored Warriors, and they had to undergo refinement with the exact number. Without these conditions, no one could pass.

They couldn’t help but admire Lin Feng deeply. If Lin Feng hadn’t thought of this method, who knew how long it would take them to figure it out themselves? They could have starved to death here. Fortunately, they met Lin Feng, or they wouldn’t even know how they died.

But now, with no other route available in the hall, they turned their gaze to Lin Feng, wanting to know if he had found a way out. Feeling everyone’s eyes on him, Lin Feng calmly walked to the center of the hall, where there was a very peculiar circular platform with several special round holes. It was unclear what they were for.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Lin Feng waved his hand, and a few golden beans flew onto the circular platform, landing precisely in those round holes. As the golden beans fell into the holes, something unexpected happened.

"Rumble..."

A sudden abnormal tremor in a nearby wall drew everyone’s attention. A once flat wall now revealed a corridor, glittering with golden light. No one knew where this passage led.

"Let’s go, there’s no danger."

While everyone was uncertain about what to do next, Lin Feng calmly stated. He immediately stepped into the newly appeared passage. Having already probed it with his Divine Sense and sensed no danger, he felt confident leading everyone inside to see how far this inheritance ground extended.

Seeing Lin Feng take the lead, the others followed suit without hesitation, entering the passage. As before, Wang Batian stayed close to Lin Feng’s group, while Su Zhong took the rear. This caused Su Zhong to glance at Wang Batian with murderous intent in his eyes.

Not long after, Lin Feng and the others emerged from the narrow corridor, committing everyone, including Wang Batian and Su Zhong, who followed behind, to stunned silence.

A foggy world appeared before them, the visibility not great. Nearby, the ground held a rectangular herbal field, around thirty to forty feet long and more than twenty feet wide. Some clearly withered Spiritual Medicine could be seen within, nearly causing their hearts to leap out!

"Dragon Heart Grass!"

An exclamation made clear to Wang Batian and the other Human Immortal Realm powerhouses the significance of the Spiritual Medicine present. It was the main ingredient for concocting the Dragon Heart Bone Tempering Pill, considered a Sect-Protecting Treasure in their world. To find such quantity here nearly drove them crazy, for even withered, it was still Dragon Heart Grass, an invaluable treasure!

With this realization, Wang Batian moved first, rushing quickly to the edge of the herbal field, reaching out to pick the Dragon Heart Grass. Seeing Wang Batian dart ahead, Su Zhong and others didn’t hesitate to race toward the herbal field as well.

However, to their surprise, just as Wang Batian reached toward the herbal field, a light golden Energy Membrane appeared, blocking his hand with a thud. Despite exerting great effort, he couldn’t advance an inch, frustrating Wang Batian — the treasure lay within sight, but remained unobtainable. Helplessly, he stood at the membrane’s edge, contemplating.

At this moment, Su Zhong and others also reached the field’s edge, trying to acquire the Dragon Heart Grass. To their dismay, however, no method allowed them to penetrate the light golden membrane. Witnessing this, Su Zhong and others were speechless, puzzled by the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal’s motives in setting such an obstacle. What on earth did Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal want from them?

Lin Feng too made no move towards the herbal field. He found the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal’s arrangement odd, speculating on the Immortal’s true intentions. Xia Guangze and others observed Lin Feng’s stillness and refrained from action, recalling past experiences that proved following Lin Feng’s lead was always right — he would surely find the correct approach.

Let’s first understand the specifics of this place.

After a thoughtful internal contemplation, Lin Feng still couldn’t decipher the purpose of the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal’s setup. Begrudgingly, he decided to use his Divine Sense to scan the area. Closing his eyes, Lin Feng extended his powerful Divine Sense.

In an instant, his Divine Sense enveloped the entire area, painting the scenes in his mind. This expanse was vast, containing eighty-one herbal fields, each separated by over a mile, illustrating its immense size!

What amazed Lin Feng was that these eighty-one fields brimmed with rare Spiritual Herbs. Finding just one outside would be considered a great fortune, but here were eighty-one different kinds! The Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal’s influence was astonishing!

Furthermore, Lin Feng noticed a peculiarity: not all fields contained withered herbs. A few still housed herbs that retained some Spiritual Energy. At the heart of these eighty-one fields stood one distinctly different, housing a herb with special leaves. This sight stunned Lin Feng, for he had read about it in his master’s Ancient Book; it was called the Dustless Spiritual Heart Grass, the primary ingredient for the legendary Heavenly Grade Elixir Dustless Spiritual Heart Pill!

Considering that Heavenly Grade Elixirs had long ceased to be seen—they could not be concocted without a Heavenly Immortal level Alchemist, and now not a single cultivator had reached the Heavenly Immortal Realm—this discovery was astounding.

"Brother-in-law, is there something wrong here? What should we do?" Leng Hao, standing next to Lin Feng and seeing him suddenly open his eyes and freeze, wanted to understand the situation.

As Leng Hao spoke, Xia Guangze and the other four nodded eagerly. Their hearts burned with a fervent curiosity about Lin Feng’s next steps. Seeing the Dragon Heart Grass before Wang Batian, they too felt an impulsive desire, hoping to secure such precious herbs. Successfully doing so would earn immense rewards back at their Sect.

Meanwhile, the Hidden World experts like Xia Yan and Song Hong appeared calm. Though the presence of many Human Immortal Realm Powerhouses made action unlikely, they awaited Lin Feng’s guidance.

On the other side, Wang Batian also noticed Lin Feng, realizing that he was strategizing. Subconsciously, he extended his Divine Sense, and like Lin Feng, discerned the area’s conditions. The eighty-one herbal fields filled with rare herbs stunned him into disbelief.

Heavens, how could this be possible!

Absolute Heaven Ganoderma, Spirit Phantasm Thousand Degree Flower, Heaven-Molding Returning Bone Grass... Names of rare herbs floated through his mind. Some he didn’t recognize, and realizing this Heavenly Immortal Mansion Ruins’ significance overwhelmed him. Rare herbs thought extinct appeared here, including some considered merely mythical. Witnessing this seemed an unreal dream.

Su Zhong and the others noticed Wang Batian’s astonished state, ceasing their attempts to collect the Dragon Heart Grass. Extending their own Divine Sense, they too were stupefied. Not by choice, but the revelation rendered them statues, unable to believe the reality unfolding.
