In the darkened deep forest, Gu Jin’s heart was calm, and there was no fear on her face.
She had now cultivated to the Qi Refining Seventh Layer and could even use her abilities flexibly, ensuring she could retreat unhard in the event of encountering vicious beasts.
Reaching the place where she last picked ginseng, Gu Jin did not stop and continued forward; the further she walked, the darker it beca.
She knew that the chances of finding wild ginseng further ahead were very high.
Wild ginseng particularly favors dark and damp places, and most of them grow here.
After walking for about twenty minutes, she indeed found a sparse patch of wild ginseng again.
Setting down her bamboo basket, Gu Jin, without using a digging spade, approached the patch of wild ginseng and used Spiritual Power to pull out the nearest wild ginseng by its roots.
She did it naturally and skillfully, and in about ten minutes, she had finished handling the entire patch of wild ginseng.
Once the wild ginseng was uprooted, it was directly transported to the spirit field in her space to be planted.
In order to refine elixirs using these wild ginseng, they needed to be well-nurtured in the spirit field. Especially those broken roots; after being nurtured in the spirit field for a while, they would not only be intact but also grow better.
Gu Jin glanced at the clearing ahead, ensuring there were no leftover wild ginseng, and then continued to move forward with her bamboo basket.
In the next few hours, she ca across several areas with scattered wild ginseng.
She also found Cordyceps on the lawn at the highest point of Qingluan Mountain, discovered Polygonum multiflorum on the cliffs after crossing Qingluan Mountain, and found wild Lingzhi under hundred-year-old ancient trees.
Qingluan Mountain is vast, so vast that in these few hours, Gu Jin simply couldn’t unearth all the rare treasures.
Oddly enough, Gu Jin had never seen those things before but could recognize them at a glance, as if she had a clairvoyant ability.
Any precious herb she passed by and recognized, she casually tossed into her spatial area.
As she continued walking, Gu Jin saw another patch of wild ginseng, albeit sparsely populated.
"Howl..."
Just as she was moving forward, she suddenly heard the howl of wolves.
Gu Jin stopped in her tracks, deciphering which direction the wolf howls were coming from, slightly crouching, vigilance shining in her eyes.
"Howl howl howl..."
The wolf howls rang again, though not close to this location.
Knowing the wolves were not nearby, Gu Jin kept moving towards the wild ginseng, using her Spiritual Power to dig them up while cautiously scanning her surroundings.
Wolves are pack animals. Although the howls seed distant, they run quickly, and who knows when they might appear suddenly.
Luckily, there were no unexpected dangers. After transporting all the wild ginseng to her space, Gu Jin did not see any wolves nearby.
She chose not to continue forward; the dimr the light, the darker it got, as if there were monstrous shadows ahead.
Gu Jin knew this was an optical illusion; the surrounding atmosphere and current weather gave off a gloomy and terrifying mysterious feeling.
Even though there might be dangers ahead, it wasn’t too severe. Nevertheless, Gu Jin didn’t proceed further because she had gathered as many as several hundred wild ginseng; in a few years, this would beco an invaluable fortune.
Even without waiting a few years, the current wild ginseng was worth millions.
Gu Jin roughly calculated that she transplanted three to four hundred wild ginseng into her space, even though the majority were severely damaged, and their weight was negligible.
She intended to plant these battered ginseng in the spirit field space, hoping the field’s nurturing would repair them well enough to use for alchemy in the future.
