Two Realms: Don't call me evil!

Shortly after the Jeko Group and the United States mobilized large numbers of warships towards the Yin-Yang Zhenhai Palace, most of the countries that owned satellites discovered the problem.

An island suddenly appeared off the coast of Hokkaido, the country of cherry blossoms, which was a shock to the country that discovered the island.

The Blue Planet today is no longer what it was hundreds of years ago.

Several hundred years ago, human beings had poor navigation technology and were in the Age of Discovery.

Those adventurers and merchants who went out to sea often discovered new islands and continents in the vast ocean. For example, Columbus' discovery of the New World is a well-known classic case of the Blue Planet.

But as time entered the 21st century, there were no undiscovered islands on the blue planet anymore, and all the land on the surface had been visited by humans.

Now, an island suddenly appeared. It was not an island reef formed by a geological volcanic eruption, but an extremely huge island with towering trees and large buildings. For the countries that discovered this island, it was like a heavy hammer, knocking them dizzy.

Ancient relics, alien creations, natural wonders, myths and legends, all kinds of speculations have been heatedly discussed among high-level officials and think tanks of various countries.

Especially those in East Asia are particularly sensitive to this deep-sea island.

Because in history, there are too many records about overseas fairy mountains, even the First Emperor of the unified China was obsessed with them.

The mysterious island that appeared off the coast of Hokkaido, the Land of Sakura, is quite consistent with the historical records of overseas fairy mountain legends.

But no matter which country it is, after figuring out why the Jeko Group and the United States are fighting, they have all begun to mobilize their own forces.

Those who have the ability to send warships will immediately send fleets to the waters of Hokkaido, the Land of Sakura.

Some countries that are out of reach have begun to actively contact the Jeko Group and the United States diplomatically, hoping that the two countries can disclose the situation so that they can also get a piece of the pie and participate in the research of this mysterious island.

In fact, it is not just national power, because the current satellite network is too developed, especially after the emergence of the Kunpeng rocket of the Jeko Group, which has driven the price of satellite launches to a rock-bottom price, there are more rockets operating in the blue planet's space, and various commercial satellites are spread all over the space.

These commercial satellites are also highly accurate. Although not as accurate as spy satellites, they can also distinguish errors at the meter level, not to mention where such a large island is. As long as the commercial satellite changes its orbit, it can immediately discover this giant on the sea.

This kind of commercial satellite allows individuals to view the shooting information of the satellite's location as long as they pay money.

Therefore, information about the mysterious island off the coast of Hokkaido has been disclosed on the Internet to share this shocking news with the world.

However, these messages often appear on the Internet shortly before they strangely return to 404.

Countries around the world have a tacit understanding on this matter and will keep it secret first to avoid other incidents caused by people's public opinion and attitudes, and to prevent others from getting involved in this major event and sharing their cake.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the countries on Blue Star and the real powerful have begun to mobilize actively, wanting to divide up the interests of this mysterious island first.

Just when the countries of Blue Star were getting agitated by the birth of Yin Yang Zhenhai Palace, Yin Yang Zhenhai Palace.

There were a total of 32 people in Olvera's group. Except for eight experts and scholars in various fields, the rest were soldiers sent by the United States.

The group walked on the deep-sea island, and what they heard and saw opened their eyes.

"What kind of soil is this?"

Olvera squatted down and grabbed a handful of soil.

The soil showed no signs of being washed away by sea water, and was moderately dry and moist. When digging, one could feel a faint sense of heat, which amazed experts and scholars such as Ovira.

"Collect samples."

At Olvera's command, some people began to dig up several pieces of soil and preserve them, intending to test their components after leaving the deep-sea island.

The group continued to move forward, from the rocky land outside the deep-sea island, into a jungle with dense vegetation.

There are towering trees here that are hundreds of meters high, with treetops like umbrellas. The land under your feet is covered with low grass and even the seemingly ordinary weeds have a vigorous vitality, which gives people a very magical feeling.

Occasionally, you can see a precious mushroom, rare flower, magical fruit, or exotic grass. These are real spiritual roots, containing rich yang-attributed spiritual power.

They are part of the system that maintains the operation of the Yin-Yang Zhenhai Palace formation. Where there is a spiritual root like this, there is often no vegetation growing within three feet around it.

This is because ordinary vegetation cannot bear the yang flame fluctuations emitted by the yang attribute spiritual roots at all times.

Olvera and others who entered here breathed rapidly, and everyone's eyes became greedy and fiery.

"Are those plants the spiritual roots and precious medicines that are often mentioned in East Asian culture?"

"Could this island really be the legendary Penglai Fairy Island or something like that?"

"Stop talking nonsense and go collect them quickly. Don't miss any of them."

The experts from the United States were discussing with each other, and some of them were already impatiently rushing towards those spiritual roots. Faced with the huge discovery, they forgot the most basic vigilance.

The fastest expert rushed to a Fire Black Ginseng. The shape of this Fire Black Ginseng was roughly similar to that of the Blue Star ginseng. The part exposed above the ground was about two feet high, and the clusters of branches and leaves on the top were like burning flames, which was extremely beautiful.

"Imogene, wait, don't get so close, be careful of danger."

Seeing this, Olvera still had some rationality. He thought that it would be best to maintain enough awe for these unknown mysterious plants. It would be too rash to approach them rashly. It was not the quality that an expert should possess.

Imogen, who was stopped by Olvera, turned around and said with a smile: "Professor Olvera, it's just a plant, it's no big deal, I'm here."

Imogen did not listen to Olvera. He could not restrain his desire to explore and possess these magical plants.

As long as he can get a plant of this kind, go back to conduct research, and publish some papers, he will become the most prominent scholar at home and abroad, a pioneer in unlocking the remains of ultra-ancient civilizations. By then, his status in the academic world will rise rapidly, and he will become the top academic authority.

As she spoke, Imogen subconsciously took two steps forward.

But it was during these two steps that the accident happened.

Suddenly, flames began to crackle on the branches of the fire ginseng in front of Imogene, and the flames enveloped the crown of the fire ginseng.

One of the flames flew out and landed on Imogen.

A horrible thing happened. Imogen was like being doused with gasoline and set on fire. The blazing flames instantly covered her and she burned into a human-shaped torch.

"Ahhhh!"

The screams were earth-shattering. Imogen wailed in agony, her skin and flesh turning black and oily under the burning flames. She rolled back and forth wildly on the ground, but the flames could not be extinguished.

"Save someone quickly."

"Put out the fire and get all the water out."

The American soldiers were all experienced fighters in actual combat. They reacted immediately. Some of them took off their coats to put out the flames on Imogen, and some took out the water they carried with them and poured it on Imogen, trying to save him.

But the effect was too poor. The flames were so hot that they could not be extinguished by human power in a short time.

In just over thirty seconds, Imogen was no longer moving, and she had turned into a curled up charred corpse, with a faint smell of meat. The flames finally dissipated at this time, and the United States and others also saw Imogen's miserable state.

Imogene, who was originally 1.8 meters tall, had shrunk severely at this time. The moisture in her body was dried out by the flames, and her bones and flesh were burned into charcoal. With the slightest touch, they turned into powder and shattered.

The Fire Crow Ginseng is not a very expensive or rare spiritual root in the Tianyuan World, but it is not a common commodity either.

This kind of attack is not very dangerous. For the cultivators in the Tianyuan World, even those with low cultivation can mostly avoid the attack of the Fire Crow Ginseng. The inner disciples above the fifth level of the Soul Yun Realm can even use their spiritual energy to protect their bodies and directly block these flames.

Even ordinary people in the Tianyuan world, such as those old herbal farmers who go to the mountains to collect herbs, can pick them through other means as long as they know enough about the Fire Crow Ginseng.

After years of development, the cultivators in the Tianyuan world have long since summed up a set of corresponding methods of picking spiritual roots and plants.

But the humans on Blue Planet don’t know!

Although monks can easily deal with the attacks of the Fire Crow Ginseng, it is extremely deadly to ordinary people on Blue Star.

Not to mention, the Fire Crow Ginseng is still under the influence of the Yin-Yang Zhenhai Palace. As a part of the formation, the intensity and aggressiveness of its attacks have become even stronger under the influence of the formation.

"This plant"

Olvera looked at the fire ginseng with a very ugly expression.

Some American soldiers couldn't help but move their guns and aim at the Fire Crow Ginseng.

As if sensing the threat, the Fire Crow Sea cucumber suddenly moved, its crown shaking back and forth, and clusters of flames swayingly flew out.

"Fuck, get away from these flames."

"Oh my God! This guy can also attack in a large area."

"Shoot, shoot and kill this devil plant."

The people of the United States were horrified and dodged in a hurry.

Some soldiers also chose to shoot, and the bullets swept towards the fire crow ginseng.

Although the American team tried their best to dodge, there were too many flying flames and the American soldiers had to protect those clumsy experts. Two American soldiers were hit one after another and were contaminated by the flames. In a blink of an eye, they were ignited into human-shaped torches.

At the same time, the Fire Crow Ginseng that was attacked by bullets developed many wounds, with burning blood flowing out of the wounds. Then the Fire Crow Ginseng shook its trunk violently, and the ginseng body buried in the soil drilled out.

The ginseng body had human-like facial features, and its whiskers were like human hands and feet. It looked round and fat, but the ginseng body was red.

As soon as it came out of the ground, the fire crow's two short legs jumped and hopped away quickly, and in a few seconds it disappeared into the bushes, leaving behind a group of dumbfounded beautiful Chinese people.

"What the hell is this?"

Ovira couldn't control himself. He had never seen such an outrageous plant in his life, one that could spit fire and drill out of the ground and run away. It was more subversive to his worldview than a sea monster.

He had anticipated that there would be casualties before entering the deep-sea island, but he did not expect to stumble upon the plants.

Such an elite team has now suffered unexpected casualties due to a mysterious plant. This island is far more dangerous than he had imagined.

"Thousand-year-old ginseng spirit. This is definitely a thousand-year-old ginseng spirit. In Chinese myths and legends, this kind of ginseng can run and jump, and its shape is similar to that of a human body. Eating one can extend one's life by a hundred years. Catch it quickly and don't let it run away."

A historian from Sakura Country shouted, his eyes filled with hunger.

"Extend life by a hundred years?"

The eyes of everyone present turned green. Several American soldiers chased to the place where Huowucan disappeared, but they could not find any trace of Huowucan.

"You said this is a thousand-year-old ginseng spirit. Are you sure?"

Olvera looked at the historian from the Sakura Country with a serious expression. If the magical plant that could extend life by a hundred years really existed, countless powerful and wealthy people around the world would be crazy about it.

“I think this is the thousand-year-old ginseng spirit. The place we are at is probably the Penglai Island mentioned in Eastern mythology. Penglai Island is one of the three immortal mountains on the sea. It is the legendary residence of immortals and grows elixirs of immortality.

The ginseng that looked like a human was extremely similar to the image of the thousand-year-old ginseng spirit in mythology and legends.

According to legend, this is a kind of ginseng that has grown for a thousand years and has become a spirit with intelligence. Eating it can prolong life, but it may not be as exaggerated as immortality. After all, the ancients often exaggerated things.

But there is no smoke without fire. Ordinary ginseng has such great effects, not to mention this miraculous thousand-year-old ginseng essence. It is definitely possible to prolong life."

The scholar from Sakura Country was excited. He felt as if he was witnessing the arrival of a mythical era.

Even the thousand-year-old ginseng spirit in myths and legends has appeared. Could it be that there really are gods and ghosts in this world?

However, if the words of the scholar from Sakura Country were heard by the cultivators from the Tianyuan World, they would definitely laugh at him.

It is true that the Fire Crow Ginseng is a spiritual root of extraordinary grade, but to say that it can extend one's life by a hundred years is really wishful thinking.

It is not so easy to increase lifespan, otherwise, in the Tianyuan world, there wouldn't be so many cultivators who sit in seclusion and die due to exhaustion of their lifespan.

Not everyone is the ancestor of Guiling Palace, the annual ringworm, who can live that long.

The devil also has methods to prolong life, but they basically all have serious side effects, and it is easy to turn oneself into neither human nor ghost, making it worse to be dead than alive.

There are top-grade spiritual roots that can prolong life, but they are not the Fire Crow Ginseng. The Fire Crow Ginseng is not a thousand years old either. It has only grown for a hundred years in the spiritual veins of the Zixia Sect. After Su Jie destroyed the Zixia Sect, it became one of the massive spoils of war that Su Jie plundered the Zixia Sect.

The most orthodox way to prolong one's life in the Tianyuan world is to make breakthroughs and advances in one's cultivation. This way of prolonging one's life has no side effects at all and is the path most recommended by most cultivators.

"Damn it, I didn't catch that thing."

When Olvera heard the scholar from Sakura Country say this, a hint of regret flashed in her eyes.

If they could catch the thousand-year-old ginseng spirit that could run, their trip to the island would be considered a great success.

"but."

Olvera turned his gaze to other places in the jungle. In several places, there were magical plants similar to the thousand-year-old ginseng spirit.

But thinking of the dangerous ginseng that could spit fire, Olvera's forehead began to sweat.

"Be careful and test it. Don't let anyone get careless this time."

Olvera gritted his teeth and warned solemnly.

The others nodded their heads like chickens pecking at rice. After what happened just now, who would dare to be careless? (End of this chapter)
