The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

Chapter 392 Harvesting Seventh-Tier Spirit Herbs! More people have arrived in the herb garden valley, and Nangong Xihe's worries...

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye was slightly surprised. He had thought that Nangong Xihe would say a three-to-four split, with him receiving four and Nangong Xihe receiving three.

Unexpectedly, this woman took the initiative to suggest a 2:5 split.

Lu Ye nodded and said, "I'm fine."

"Alright, let's hurry up and get started. I wonder if the fragrance of the herbs will attract other people." Nangong Xihe also had this concern and immediately rushed to the herb garden.

After scanning the general distribution of the seven herb gardens, Nangong Xihe deliberately chose two where the overall quality of the spiritual herbs was not so high, and began to attack the shield of one of them.

Lu Ye also arrived at another medicinal garden, ready to make his move.

At the same time, he glanced at the medicinal herbs in the herb garden; most of them were fourth-tier, with a few fifth-tier herbs.

However, each herb garden typically contains one or two sixth-tier spiritual herbs, which are quite conspicuous.

The barrier above the herb garden was extremely sturdy. Lu Ye first casually unleashed a burst of Origin Qi to test its strength.

It merely caused a slight ripple on the surface of its barrier.

This shows that these medicinal gardens were definitely left behind by a powerful force or a prominent figure many years ago.

Lu Ye continued to attack steadily, gradually depleting the energy of the herb garden's protective shield.

After a short while, Lu Ye finally managed to open a large enough gap in the first protective barrier of the medicinal garden.

Immediately, they began to take out the medicinal herbs one by one from the gap.

Beside her, Nangong Xihe saw how efficient Lu Ye was and a hint of envy flashed across her face.

The protective shields of these several medicinal gardens are all of the same strength, and Lu Ye's strength is far superior to hers.

Therefore, Lu Ye was so relaxed, but at most she had only just depleted one or two tenths of the shield's energy.

We are still a long way from being able to create an opening in the barrier.

Soon, Lu Ye cleared out all twenty-odd spiritual herbs in the first herb garden.

Fifth-grade and above spiritual herbs are all placed in the Myriad Paths Pavilion for better preservation.

Elixirs below this level were placed in the storage ring.

After all, the space in the Myriad Paths Pavilion is limited, and stuffing unimportant things in would only take up space.

Just as Lu Ye opened the third herb garden, on the other side, Nangong Xihe finally managed to open a small gap in the first herb garden with great difficulty.

Meanwhile, the outside world.

Two figures moved swiftly through the darkness of the nameless mountains.

"Huh, where did it go?"

One of the men, with a hooked nose, looked puzzled. He had been walking through the mountains when he seemed to have caught a faint, peculiar scent wafting over...

It smells like medicine!
Just smelling it made him feel comfortable all over, and the hook-nosed man was immediately shocked.

This is a treasure! This is absolutely a treasure!
Unexpectedly, after walking in this direction for less than half a minute, the medicinal fragrance suddenly disappeared, as if it had never appeared at all.

“Brother, are you sure you’re not mistaken? I didn’t smell any medicinal fragrance.” Another red-faced man spoke up. He hadn’t smelled anything either; he had simply followed the man with the hooked nose.

"There's definitely a medicinal scent. My nose doesn't lie." The hook-nosed man said confidently, searching his surroundings by the faint moonlight and the superior eyesight of a cultivator.

Soon, a crack caught the attention of the hook-nosed man.

"Come on, there's a crack over there, let's go take a look."

The man with the hooked nose took the lead and, in a few leaps, arrived at the crack that was more than two meters wide.

Below, a faint whistling sound could be heard, indicating that the crack was very deep.

“I feel like that medicinal fragrance is coming from underground…” The hook-nosed man’s eyes flashed as he made a judgment.

Hearing this, the red-faced man glanced again at the deep crack below and felt a shiver run down his spine. "Brother, we don't know where this underground leads. Maybe we should just give up?"

"You're scared already? If we cultivators are afraid of this and that, how can we achieve anything great? Stop talking nonsense, I'll be in front of you, just follow me."

The hook-nosed man gave a low rebuke and led the way, carefully gliding down along the cracks where there was room to step.

Seeing this, the red-faced man felt like crying, but he gritted his teeth and followed after him.

Fear is one thing, but there's a saying that's true: if you're afraid of this and afraid of that, how can you advance to a higher realm if your talent is only average?
Soon after, the two successfully landed, after all, they were two Acquired Realm cultivators who were extremely close to the Innate Realm.

Then, completely oblivious to the dangers lurking within the cave, the two stepped inside...

"what……"

"what!"

After two screams, the cave quickly returned to silence.

Just then, an old man with only one arm landed near the crack.

"Why do I feel there's something attracting me from beneath this crack?"

A thoughtful look flashed in the old man's cloudy eyes.

A moment later, the old man also leaped down...

...

As time went by, Lu Ye had already acquired his fifth medicinal garden.

As soon as he arrived at the fifth herb garden, Lu Ye was immediately drawn to a seventh-grade spiritual herb in the very center of the garden.

"There's actually a seventh-tier spiritual herb?!"

Upon seeing this spiritual herb, Lu Ye's eyes widened.

The highest grade of spiritual herbs in the previous four herb gardens was sixth grade.

Unexpectedly, this last medicinal herb garden held a pleasant surprise.

I'll digest the seventh-tier spiritual medicine in batches...

Their strength will inevitably see a significant improvement.

Of course, these medicinal herbs can be used to refine pills, which can have a greater effect.

However, seventh-grade spiritual herbs require a seventh-grade alchemist to process them... There are no alchemy masters of that caliber in the Northern Territory.

On the other side, Nangong Xihe also struggled to open the protective shield of the second medicinal garden.

Looking at Lu Ye standing in front of the last medicinal garden, Nangong Xihe knew that in that medicinal garden was the only seventh-level herb in this valley.

But... it was something he deserved.

After all, the key was in his hands, so Nangong Xihe remained calm as always.

Just as Nangong Xihe opened the second herb garden, a subtle ripple suddenly came from above the valley.

Suddenly, Nangong Xihe looked up and gazed at the sky.

She was startled when she saw a figure descending rapidly.

My previous guesses have actually come true.

Other cultivators discovered the anomaly at the bottom of the crack and entered through the teleportation array!

Moreover, even though the person who arrived was hundreds of meters away, Nangong Xihe already felt that he was invincible.
