Chapter 733: The gap between 598 and Ying Zijin completely blows up! [2 more]
As if to prove Ying Zijin wrong, the young man deliberately walked to the front of everyone and stamped his foot again.
Nothing happened.
The young man turned his head, his expression mocking, “What’s wrong? Why stop? Don’t tell you saw all the dicinal herbs on this mountain and want to claim them all for yourself?”
“It’s only because Qingxue is not in good health and can’t compete with you, otherwise—”
He hadn’t finished speaking when the ground shifted, and a deep pit appeared.
In an instant, his foot found only air.
The young man had no ti to react and fell straight down.
His face showed terror, and he let out a scream.
Just then, a hand violently grabbed his clothes, pulling him back up.
Ying Zijin let go and her gaze fell on the suddenly appearing trap, her expression slightly stern.
This kind of large trap was ant for capturing animals.
So animals’ fur and bones could also be used in dicine, and the Ancient dical field had many such traps.
But this was the mountain they ca to for their training; how could such a thing appear here?
The young man broke out in a cold sweat, his legs gave out, and he collapsed to the ground.
The others were also shocked.
ng Qingxue frowned.
“Did you see? That’s the difference between you and Miss Ying,” Foo Chen squatted down, his tone laden with cold mockery, “Judging others by your own petty standards. Next ti, have a bit more awareness, or you won’t even know how you died.”
The young man’s mouth gaped open, his face turned red, burning with pain, but more so with embarrassnt: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
He pursed his lips, stood up, and did not go over to ng Qingxue’s side again.
Ying Zijin did not look at him and turned around, “Everyone, descend the mountain.”
“Miss Zijin, aren’t you being overly anxious?” An ancient doctor hesitated before speaking up, “It’s just a trap, a common occurrence. We can’t be afraid of this when we co out for training.”
It happens only once a year.
The other ancient doctors were also hesitant and did not move.
After the training was over, ancient doctors of the ancestors’ level would give rewards based on their accomplishnts.
They did not want to miss out.
Foo Chen frowned, “All mbers of the Foo Family, descend the mountain.”
Foo Chen’s words carried weight.
No matter how lazy he was, he was still the most prominent of the younger generation in the Foo Family, the genius who led them.
Foo Chen followed Ying Zijin, and the others followed him.
An Ling and An Miaomiao exchanged glances.
If Ying Zijin could say sothing like this, it wasn’t for nothing.
An Ling thought for a mont and finally spoke, “All mbers of the An Family, descend as well.”
With that, more than half left.
The Pill Alliance split into two groups, one following Ying Zijin down the mountain.
The others remained in place.
Ying Zijin’s rise in the Pill Alliance was too fast, even the Alliance Hierarch constantly praised her. To say they weren’t jealous would be a lie.
An ancient doctor from the ng Family looked at ng Qingxue, “Qingxue, should we also descend?”
“What could possibly happen?” ng Qingxue pressed her lips together, growing increasingly impatient, “Of course, if you believe her, then by all ans follow her down. I’ll go up by myself.”
Another admirer of ng Qingxue spoke up, his tone disdainful, “These traps are quite common, just sowhat hidden. What could possibly happen? They are just cowards. Should we of the ng Family be afraid?”
“With the Foo Family and An Family getting nothing this ti, the ng Family can surpass them by one step.”
ng Qingxue’s expression finally eased slightly.
She maneuvered her wheelchair herself, bypassed the trap, and continued to move forward.
The remaining ancient doctors followed her.
The anomaly occurred at this mont.
As one group descended the mountain and the other ascended, the whole mountain began to move.
Ying Zijin’s footsteps halted abruptly, her expression turning grave, she commanded, “Retreat!”
Having spoken, she imdiately took hold of An Miaomiao beside her and rolled violently to the side.
As Ying Zijin spoke, Foo Chen acted as well, imdiately pushing others to the right.
The next second, cracks appeared where they had been standing.
An Miaomiao turned pale, “Miss Zijin, it looks like explosives.”
Explosives were originally one of the Four Great Inventions of ancient tis, and the Ancient dical field naturally also used them.
“It’s not just explosives.” Ying Zijin stood up and slowly looked up.
A girl let out a piercing scream.
It was a huge tiger, clearly different from those seen in ordinary zoos.
It was of the sa kind as the water snake Ying Zijin had once slain, but much stronger.
The aura emanating from its body was already comparable to that of an Ancient Martial Grandmaster.
This large wild beast definitely wouldn’t be raised by practitioners of Ancient dicine, since it simply can’t be controlled.
Even within the Ancient Martial World, it would have to be confined by ancient martial artists with high levels of cultivation.
After all, the juniors in the Ancient Martial World don’t have high levels of cultivation. If they encounter a beast comparable to an Ancient Martial Grandmaster, their fate would be death or disability.
Evil doctor!
Not only Foo Chen, but also An Ling and An Miaomiao thought of these two words.
Before experinting on humans, an evil doctor would first conduct experints on animals.
Once, a large wild beast broke into the ng Family.
If it weren’t for the presence of an ancient martial artist in the ng Family, that beast could have slaughtered them all.
Later it was proven that the ordinary animals were transford into such monsters by the evil doctor using forbidden thods and herbs that are not allowed to be used.
An Miaomiao’s face turned even paler: “This is bad… terrible!”
Today, all the young geniuses of the Ancient dical field had gathered on this mountain, the future hopes.
One could say that barring a few who were ill or had other matters to attend to, not one was absent.
If they all perished here today, it wouldn’t be much different from the extinction of the Ancient dical field.
Even if not extinct, there would be a disruption for decades to co.
This was an attempt to take everyone down in one fell swoop.
The conspiracy the evil doctor had been plotting for decades finally erupted today.
Most ancient dical practitioners were physically weak. Although they had learned self-defense techniques, how could they fight against wild beasts?
“Run first!” Ying Zijin’s eyes turned cold, “Those who don’t know ancient martial arts, use silver needles and golden needles, block it with trees and rocks.”
Even if she were to kill this tiger, it wouldn’t be easy.
“This mountain has been fully scouted by the Pill Alliance and the Three Great Clans!” Foo Chen said icily, “It’s absolutely impossible for there to be any traps or large animals!”
It was indeed a trial, but other dangers had also been excluded.
This ant that an evil doctor had infiltrated the upper echelons of the Ancient dical field!
“Stop talking.” Ying Zijin raised her hand, releasing three golden needles hidden in her sleeve.
One of them struck an acupoint in Foo Chen’s shoulder.
Instantly, Foo Chen felt his inner strength surge, his steps quickened, and he ran much faster.
The other two struck the belly of the wild beast.
The beast let out a fierce roar. Far from being deterred, it beca even more ferocious.
“Let’s go.” Ying Zijin wiped the dirt off her face, her voice cool, “Keep running, don’t look back.”

Afternoon.
The Imperial City.
The Ji Family.
Fong Mian erged from the laboratory, holding two dicine bottles in his hand.
Fu Yunshen turned his head and smiled, “Uncle, have you figured it out?”
After taking over the Ji Family, Fong Mian had restarted the island experint from twenty years ago.
Fong Mian shook his head slightly: “No, not yet, but it can be confird that this thing is not from Earth. It might be a teorite from outer space, but it’s not quite like one. No elent matches it; it’s a very mysterious substance.”
Fu Yunshen’s eyes narrowed slightly, “It might not be the case. It’s very likely from a place similar to the Ancient Martial World.”
Within the Ancient Martial World, there are still many species that have been declared extinct internationally.
Like the White-bottod Leaf Monkey.
Last century, Hua Country announced the death of the last White-bottod Leaf Monkey, declaring its complete extinction.
But there’s a mountain in the Ancient Martial World that’s full of them.
There are also many mineral elents that don’t appear on the periodic table of chemical elents.
The island experint from over twenty years ago had produced the DEATH poisonous fog, which was obviously ant to prevent the researchers from continuing their work.
Last year, a DEATH poisonous fog appeared again in University Town in O continent, aiming to kill the young tech geniuses.
Fong Mian put the dicine bottles down: “Where’s Yaoyao?”
“She went with the kids to gather herbs for training,” Fu Yunshen nodded, “She’s worried about you restarting the experint and attracting the sa people as last ti, so she told to keep an eye on you.”
“What could happen to , that child,” Fong Mian sighed, “Ever since she was little, she’s only ever thought of others.”
During the decade or so when Ying Zijin’s consciousness and mory hadn’t fully recovered, living in Qingshui County, she would rather save a piece of at for Wen Tinglan to eat.
They had always lived like that for so many years.
Fong Mian then asked, “When will her training end?”
“According to the tradition of the Ancient dicine field, it’s two days and one night,” Fu Yunshen smiled, “But I’m planning to go up the mountain tonight. She’s picky with food.”
“Okay,” Fong Mian took off his lab coat and washed his hands, “I’ll go up with you tonight.”
At that mont, the phone rang.
Fu Yunshen pressed the answer button: “Hello?”
“Young master, sothing’s happened!” Yun Shan’s voice was anxious, “The mountain where Miss Ying and the other geniuses of the Ancient dical field went for training, we just received news that it collapsed!”
