Chapter 507 Medicinal Herbs in the Ancient Forest
Xiao Tian glanced at the still-sleeping earth demon puppets, and an aura enveloped them, instantly turning the surrounding space into black and white.

Suddenly, Xiao Tian thought of something even more fun. He then branded the puppets, gaining control of ten puppets.

"Master, your smile is so naughty. You can't be naughty here." Xiao Huiying looked at Xiao Tian's expression and immediately crossed her arms in front of her chest, saying with a look of refusal.

"What nonsense are you thinking? I just wanted to leave them something fun." Xiao Tian reached out and ruffled Xiao Huiying's long, silver-red hair.

At this moment, Xiao Huiying had already put away the dragon horn steering wheel. She would only reveal her dragon horns when needed by the Heavenly Palace or Xiao Tian. In public, she would keep them hidden.

"Who told you to smile so wickedly, Master? Every time you smile so wickedly, it's always..." Xiao Huiying said, her face turning slightly red, her head almost buried in her broad chest.

After Xiao Tian controlled the ten puppets, the tightly closed door suddenly made a creaking sound.

"Squeak..."

The seemingly heavy stone door slowly opened a crack...

As the stone gate gradually opened, a desolate and ancient aura slowly drifted out.

"Let's go in first." Upon hearing Xiao Tian's words, Xiao Huiying instantly adjusted her state and took the lead towards the gate, paving the way for Xiao Tian.

After giving the puppet several orders, Xiao Tian followed behind Xiao Huiying and walked into the gate.

After the two passed through the gate, Xiao Tian waved his fighting spirit at the stone gate, and the stone gate, which had been open, closed again.

After passing through the gate, what appeared before Xiao Tian and his companion was a colossal palace that resembled a giant.

Standing in the main hall, people appeared exceptionally small. Looking around, they discovered numerous deep corridors surrounding the hall, their destinations unknown.

However, neither of them showed any surprise. After all, in the Free and Unfettered Realm, the size of the palaces varied greatly. One was the owner of a small world, and the other had control over it. The palaces inside could be changed at will according to their own thoughts.

"Master, which way should we go?" Xiao Huiying asked Xiao Tian, ​​looking at the many corridors and passageways.

She also sensed that Xiao Tian seemed quite familiar with this ruin.

"Follow me." After glancing at the direction, Xiao Tian rushed towards a passage on the left side of the main hall. In his perception, the smell of medicinal herbs in this passage was quite strong.

Although he didn't have Zi Yan's talent for treasure hunting, as an eighth-grade alchemist, he was still quite sensitive to the smell of medicinal herbs.

Just after Xiao Tian chose his direction, many figures began to appear one after another in the plaza below the fire path.

It was the various top-tier forces and Xiao Yan and others.

Xiao Yan, who had arrived here, also noticed these earth demon puppets and couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

"Xiao Yan, how come these ten puppets look so much like the one in your hand?" Venerable Tianhuo asked Xiao Yan after examining the puppets.

“Almost the same manufacturing method, I didn’t expect there to be ten of them here.” Xiao Yan nodded slightly, glanced around and found that most people were focusing on the puppets. “Presumably the way to open this stone gate is on these ten puppets.”

“Let’s not get involved for now. Someone will take care of this,” Venerable Heavenly Fire said with a smile.

Xiao Yan couldn't help but chuckle. He was indeed a shrewd old man, but he knew he couldn't be the one to stick his neck out; it would be a thankless task. A murmur rippled through the plaza, but no one stepped forward.

After all, they all sensed that the ten puppets in front of them were quite powerful, and they were all thinking of conserving their strength to compete for the treasures later.

Xiao Tian and Xiao Huiying continued forward, completely ignoring the other pavilions.

Finally, we arrived at an extremely ancient-looking stone gate, covered with moss of a deep blue-green color that conveyed the passage of time.

Seeing Xiao Tian stop, Xiao Huiying knew they had arrived at their destination. "Master, please step back a little, I'll open the door."

Xiao Tian knew that there were no mechanisms in this door, and he had already scanned it with his soul power.

Seeing that Xiao Tian did not respond, Xiao Huiying quickly walked to the stone door and pushed it open forcefully.

"Boom!"

With a deep thud, the heavy stone door covered in moss was slowly pushed open, and a thick, medicinal fragrance that had been hidden for countless years immediately wafted out.
"Such a rich aroma of medicinal herbs, Master. It seems this place is a treasure trove for storing medicinal herbs."

Xiao Huiying knew that her master was an alchemist, and medicinal herbs were very important to Xiao Tian.

A hint of joy flashed in her eyes, and she pushed the stone door open completely with renewed force.

The moment the stone gate opened, a dazzling light burst forth from it, causing both of them to squint slightly.

After the light faded, and they could see the scene before them clearly, their mouths involuntarily opened wide, as if they were astonished by what was inside.

"Master, this is too amazing!"

Beyond the stone gate lies not the stone chamber everyone imagined, but a forest—an ancient forest entirely constructed from various rare medicinal herbs!
This shows that the medicinal herbs inside are incredibly old; this one forest of herbs alone is enough to drive alchemists outside mad.

Although Xiao Tian knew that this was a forest of medicinal herbs, he was still surprised when he actually saw it.

"Indeed, it is worthy of being a Dou Sheng's collection. Many of the medicinal herbs in it are not ordinary herbs, and many of them have even disappeared outside."

Xiao Tian came to Xiao Huiying's side and gently helped her close her mouth, as if this was not the first time he had done this.

"If Ziyan knew about these medicinal herbs, she might be unable to leave, and might even live here." Xiao Huiying hugged Xiao Tian's arm and shouted excitedly, "Master, let's hurry up and loot these medicinal herbs before the people outside come in."

With this medicinal herb forest, our master can better cultivate his alchemy skills, and everyone's strength will increase rapidly, allowing them to better serve their master in conquering the world.

"Yes, of course. Now that we're here, picking them little by little would be too slow."

Hearing Xiao Tian's words and looking at the vast area of ​​the forest in front of her, Xiao Huiying's face immediately became troubled.

It's like seeing a treasure trove, but having no way to access it.
