Chapter 390: Chapter 390: The Manifestation of Immortals
Ling City is approximately one thousand three hundred kiloters away from Zhongnan Mountain, and Li Xiaoyao chose not to take a plane, but to fly with his sword instead.
Zhongnan Mountain, also known as Taiyi Mountain and Taibai Mountain, is part of the Qin Ling mountain range and is regarded as a sacred land where Taoism originated.
If Li Xiaoyao were to unleash his full speed now, he could break the sound barrier with his flesh, and a distance of over a thousand kiloters would take rely an hour to reach.
At ten forty-five in the morning, Li Xiaoyao appeared above the Qin Ling mountain range, his thoughts releasing and instantly covering a radius of ten miles.
However, such a distance was but a drop in the ocean compared to the vastness of Zhongnan Mountain, which covered thousands of square kiloters.
Not far ahead was a woodcutter chopping wood. Li Xiaoyao descended from the sky and landed a hundred ters away from the woodcutter, taking out a Taoist robe from his Storage Space and putting it on before walking towards the man.
From a distance, the woodcutter saw a man dressed as a Taoist approaching and promptly set down his axe, speaking respectfully, “Greetings to the Taoist master.”
Li Xiaoyao bowed and asked, “I have co from afar at the invitation to dicine God Valley, but upon arriving here, though I see the vastness of Zhongnan Mountain, the location of dicine God Valley evades . Could you please tell which way I should go to reach dicine God Valley?”
Upon hearing this, the woodcutter beca even more respectful. Within a hundred miles, dicine God Valley was almost a place of immortals, and in the hearts of ordinary people like him, those who could enter dicine God Valley were akin to celestial beings.
And now, such a celestial being stood before him. The woodcutter felt that today must be his lucky day.
“The Taoist master is too polite. If you wish to go to dicine God Valley, then from here head south for about three hundred kiloters, and you will see a paradise hidden from the world. That is where dicine God Valley is located.”
Li Xiaoyao bowed and said, “Thank you.”
The woodcutter eagerly bowed in return, but when he looked up again, Li Xiaoyao had already disappeared. The woodcutter hurriedly knelt on the ground, shouting loudly, “An immortal has revealed himself, an immortal has revealed himself!”
Li Xiaoyao was no immortal, for if he were, why would he co to dicine God Valley?
Hurrying through the deep mountains, Li Xiaoyao only hoped that dicine God Valley truly had the dicinal herbs he needed.
Three hundred kiloters passed in the blink of an eye, and after about fifteen minutes, the landscape before him opened up, with buildings made of bluestones, ancient and full of old-world charm.
Outside these structures was a large dicinal garden, its refreshing fragrance invigorating the spleen and lungs, drifting into the mouth and nose, making one feel clear-headed and physically relaxed.
Li Xiaoyao landed, and stepping on the ground, he carefully sensed the area and discovered an extrely rich concentration of Spiritual Energy, clearly indicating the presence of a powerful Spirit Gathering Array.
“It’s likely that over the years, dicine God Valley has cultivated many heavenly and earthy treasures through this grand array,” he thought.
This sight filled Li Xiaoyao with hope.
Considering the size of the Spirit Gathering Array that dicine God Valley was able to set up, it must indeed possess strength and heritage.
As he approached dicine God Valley, Li Xiaoyao saw many people outside its main entrance.
So were kneeling, others sitting cross-legged, all with the sa aim—hoping to enter dicine God Valley and obtain a divine dicine.
“The people of dicine God Valley are really quite unreasonable. With so many people waiting here, they won’t even open the gate,” a well-built man with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes huffed.
A young man beside him sighed and said, “Big brother, I’ve told you already, obtaining divine dicine is all about fate. We’ve been here for over ten days, and dicine God Valley still hasn’t opened their gates. I think we should return.”
“No, I can’t go back. Grandfather is waiting for the elixir to cure his illness. If I go back now, wouldn’t grandfather be left without any hope?” The man’s expression was resolute, and his tone brooked no argunt.
“Squeak!”
Just then, the gate of dicine God Valley suddenly opened. The more than ten people waiting outside stood up one after another, keeping silent with expectant eyes fixed on the slowly opening gate.
A middle-aged man around forty, wearing a Taoist robe, slowly walked out from the gate. His face was indifferent as he slowly swept his gaze over the faces of the dozen or so people and said, “From today on, dicine God Valley will temporarily not receive those seeking dicine. Everyone, please leave.”
“What?”
“We have waited for more than a month, only to get this result?”
“How can you do this? Isn’t dicine God Valley supposed to provide relief to the world? We have traveled from far away, waiting for over ten days, only to receive this answer?”
The middle-aged man’s words sparked the crowd’s fury.
The muscular man was also enraged and about to curse out loud but was held back by the man beside him: “Big brother, calm down. Everyone in dicine God Valley is extraordinary and can hear every word we say, crisp and clear.”
“Are we supposed to leave just like that?”
“Of course not. Just watch .” The man grinned slightly, strode forward, and approached the middle-aged man with an extrely respectful attitude, “Master, my na is Lan Fengyun, from the Lan Family of Jindu. I’ve co to dicine God Valley seeking dicine for my gravely ill grandfather. I hope you can allow to enter dicine God Valley to seek dicine.”
While speaking, Lan Fengyun took out a bank card and passed it over discreetly, whispering, “This is a small token of my appreciation. It’s not much, just one hundred million. I suppose the master also needs to use these worldly possessions when you go out; please don’t refuse it.”
The middle-aged man practiced lowering his gaze and took the bank card, and his eyes softened significantly when he looked at Lan Fengyun again.
He was just a nial worker in dicine God Valley and naturally needed to take care of his basic needs, often frequenting the cities. Money, a mundane object, may not attract the elders in dicine God Valley, but for those like him at the bottom, it was nothing but beneficial.
“Hmm, you’re very sensible.” The middle-aged man nodded slightly and said, “Go in then. Rember, once inside, don’t make noise, and whether you can get the elixir will still depend on your own fortune. Understand?”
Lan Fengyun nodded repeatedly: “Understood.”
Lan Fengyun waved his hand at his elder brother, and the two quickly entered the gate of dicine God Valley. The other onlookers, seeing this scene, could not help but widen their eyes. After realizing what had happened, they too hurried forward to offer their “intentions.”
Li Xiaoyao watched this scene with a sneer in his heart. The so-called dicine God Valley seed to be nothing special after all.
However, those two who claid to be from the Lan Family of Jindu did surprise Li Xiaoyao sowhat.
Could they be from the Lan Cai Family?
Li Xiaoyao stepped forward, ignoring the man guarding the gate, and proceeded to enter dicine God Valley directly.
On seeing him, the man raised his eyebrows and demanded, “Who are you to dare trespass into dicine God Valley so brazenly?”
Li Xiaoyao replied indifferently, “With your insignificance, do you deserve to know my na?”
“Audacious!” The man rebuked loudly, and a long whip appeared in his right hand. He commanded, “Step back at once! How dare you insult dicine God Valley, you youngster?”
