"Let’s go down and take a look!"
Fang Bai, accompanied by Linghu Baimi, descended from the clouds and landed on a peak north of the large lake.
While searching for Immortals from the lower realms, they were also undergoing training. Discovering treasures naturally ant they should stop to examine them.
To them, treasures in the Immortal Realm are ant for those destined for them. Obtaining them is a chance, not getting them wouldn’t lead to disappointnt.
Standing atop the mountain peak, Fang Bai extended his Divine Sense towards the lake. As it neared the bottom, he found purple aura swirling and strands of energy embodying the world’s principles dispersed in between, blocking his sense.
"It should be Ziying Ginseng..."
Although Fang Bai couldn’t probe the lake bottom’s treasure with his Divine Sense, based on the knowledge from his past life, he guessed what was releasing the purple Immortal Qi.
"Ziying Ginseng? What kind of treasure is that?"
Linghu Baimi blinked her charming, slender eyes and asked inquisitively.
Fang Bai replied, "It’s a fairly rare Immortal Elixir, shaped like a baby... Hmm, it resembles a worldly ginseng. When Ziying Ginseng reaches a certain Immortal age, it can attain spirituality, moving freely like an Immortal. From its appearance, it truly looks like a newborn baby..."
Linghu Baimi imagined the appearance of Ziying Ginseng based on Fang Bai’s words and then asked, "Can it also be eaten?"
Fang Bai nodded, "Being an Immortal Elixir, it naturally can be eaten."
Linghu Baimi frowned, saying, "Sothing that has gained spirituality, can move freely, and looks like a baby, how could one bear to eat it..."
Fang Bai laughed, "It’s not flesh and blood, why wouldn’t one bear to eat it? The Ziying Ginseng at the lake bottom, judging by the Immortal Qi it releases, should have an age of around forty thousand years. If obtained, it would greatly aid cultivation!"
"Forty thousand years..."
Linghu Baimi silently calculated in her heart, her eyes sparkling, "Then, does it an the Ziying Ginseng at the lake bottom is far superior to typical Royal Grade cultivation resources, yet slightly inferior to Imperial Grade resources?"
Previously when parting with the Qilin Immortal Emperor, Fang Bai had acquired so Imperial Grade cultivation resources from him. However, those were mainly Immortal Stones, and couldn’t compare in cultivation benefits to Ziying Ginseng, a naturally ford Immortal Elixir.
At this ti, the surface of the lake suddenly changed.
A section at the lake’s center began spiraling rapidly without wind, forming a large whirlpool that generated a strong suction force, swiftly swallowing up the purple Immortal Qi hovering above the lake.
Fang Bai and Linghu Baimi’s attention were drawn to it.
The Immortals observing around the large lake also beca restless.
Monts later, the lake water suddenly burst open, a massive column of water shooting straight into the sky.
"The Ziying Ginseng has erged!"
An Immortal Emperor Realm expert shouted while pointing to a purple shadow atop the water column.
The Immortals’ eyes converged on the direction the Immortal Emperor Realm expert pointed, indeed spotting a three-foot-tall purple infant standing atop the water column.
In Linghu Baimi’s eyes, the purple infant resembled a magnified ginseng, only it had a nose and eyes, akin to human features, entirely purple and crystal clear, emitting Immortal Qi and spirituality.
The water column rose hundreds of zhang high, and as its montum waned, the purple infant lightly tapped its feet on it, transford into a purple light, and flew toward the western horizon.
"The Ziying Ginseng has bolted!"
"Quick, catch it!"
"With tens of thousands of years, the Ziying Ginseng is closing in on Imperial Grade, a supre treasure!"
"Slice off a few pieces for consumption, it greatly aids cultivation!"
...
Thousands of Immortals around the lake, seeing the Ziying Ginseng transform into a light and fly away, began clamoring, each employing their Immortal Laws to chase after it rapidly.
"Let’s chase too!"
Fang Bai grabbed Linghu Baimi, mounted a stretch of Auspicious Clouds, and followed the Immortals in pursuit.
The Ziying Ginseng, aware of the grave consequences if captured by Immortals, fled desperately.
It moved extrely fast, vanishing thousands of miles in an instant, diving headfirst into a mountainous area shrouded with dense miasma.
The Immortals, upon noticing the miasma, recognized its potent corrosiveness, causing those below the Fifth Grade Immortal King Realm to refrain from entering.
Those above the Fifth Grade Immortal King Realm ford Qi Shields around themselves, maintaining their speed as they charged into the miasma.
Fang Bai circulated Immortal Law, forming a Qi Shield that enveloped him and Linghu Baimi, diving into the thick miasma ahead.
"The Ziying Ginseng is cunning, leading the Immortals into this Poisonous Beast-filled region, seeking to escape amid chaos."
Fang Bai extended his Divine Sense, detecting countless powerful Immortal Beast auras and instantly grew vigilant, brandishing the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, holding it chest-high while gesturing to Linghu Baimi for caution.
This miasma stretched for ten thousand miles, ho to Immortal Beasts laden with poison, noted for their intense aggression. So emitted toxic mists that even an Immortal Emperor Realm expert couldn’t withstand.
Being a tens of thousands-year-old Immortal Elixir, Ziying Ginseng possessed an immunity to all poisons. It maneuvered skillfully through the miasma, leveraging its concealnt and the Immortal Beasts’ interference, hindering the Immortals from pursuing, while it sought chances to flee further.
"Ah!"
"Damn it!"
"My arm!"
"We can’t stay here!"
...
Monts later, constant screams and exclamations erupted from the miasma, accompanied by the roars of Immortal Beasts and the hums of poisonous insects, signifying Immortals had been "hit."
Within this miasma, Divine Sense was considerably restricted. Even with Fang Bai’s combat prowess comparable to a true Immortal Emperor Realm expert, his sense barely covered a hundred-mile radius.
In Fang Bai’s sense, several Immortals were engulfed by toxic fus and mist from Poisonous Beasts and insects, losing limbs as minor injuries, while others had their Sea of Consciousness and Qi Sea corroded into large cavities, ceasing life on the spot.
Immortals venturing into the miasma seed trapped in a massive maze, most either battling Poisonous Beasts and Immortal insects or charging blindly in all directions without finding a way out, ultimately constrained within the miasma.
"Little one, let’s see where you run!"
Despite the Ziying Ginseng’s ability to hide part of its aura, Fang Bai sharply detected its movents.
Upon entering the miasma, it burrowed deep underground, racing within the subterranean passages, attempting escape.
Fang Bai urged Linghu Baimi into the Five Elents Space Ring, then circulated the Earth Elent Formula, executing the Earth Escape Technique to delve underground, swiftly chasing the scent of the Ziying Ginseng.
The Ziying Ginseng sensed the aura behind, surprised when discovering a pursuing Immortal, promptly accelerating forward.
It was fast, but Fang Bai was faster.
Employing the Earth Elent Formula, Fang Bai advanced like a fish through water, easily penetrating layers upon layers of earth and stone, drawing ever closer to the Ziying Ginseng.
