"These damn Night Demons, attacking while I'm taking a dump, truly no martial ethics!"
Zhang nglong tossed aside his underwear, sared with so mysterious yellowish substance, by the roadside. "Luckily, I was vigilant and alert, otherwise these Night Demons would have succeeded!"
Not far away lay the two unlucky Night Demons, now in pieces. After all, Zhang nglong was very angry, and the consequences were dire.
"Gou Dan, aren't we there yet?" After dealing with the two Night Demons, Zhang nglong quickly made his way through the darkness. Occasionally, a few Night Demons passed by, but they couldn't even catch a glimpse of Zhang nglong's taillights.
"Almost there, almost there, we'll be there soon," Gou Dan said leisurely.
Zhang nglong had initially been heading towards the direction with the most abundant energy. According to Gou Dan's estimate, that direction should be the core area of this Ancient Cave Heaven, likely the origin site of those superpowers. There, they could certainly find so of their lingering legacies or relics.
However, halfway through the journey, Gou Dan suddenly sensed a very dense life force in this direction. This life force didn't co from animals but from plants. In other words, this might be a very ancient dicinal garden.
As an Alchemist, this kind of thing absolutely cannot be missed.
Zhang nglong had been popping top-level Saint Grade Elixirs like candies every day. Recently, he hadn't had many opportunities to gather herbs, and his supply of high-grade dicinal materials had almost depleted. Without a quick restock, even maintaining his daily cultivation would beco difficult.
So upon learning this news, Zhang nglong imdiately changed direction.
"It's getting stronger and stronger, Principal. That place has at least thousands of Saint Grade high-grade dicinal materials, maybe even Divine Grade ones. I don't have many of these even in my place!"
Although Super God Academy has a massive dicinal garden and abundant energy, after all, it hasn't been established long.
But who knows how long this Ancient Cave Heaven has existed. The age of top-level dicinal materials in this place is very considerable, even surpassing those grown within Super God Academy. If a large batch can be collected, it would indeed be a trendous aid for Zhang nglong.
"It seems there are quite a few people there!" Even though Zhang nglong slled that dense aroma, he could also sense the presence of many Martial Artist auras, indicating that he wasn't the first one to arrive. "Looks like so people beat us to it."
Zhang nglong wasn't too surprised. Given the vastness of this space and everyone being teleported to different places, there were bound to be so who got close to this area early on.
Moreover, as ti passed, apart from the spread of Zhang nglong's three products, others also found scattered thods to deal with the Night Demons. As a result, people gradually started leaving those survival bases or the corners where they stayed alive, even roaming freely in the darkness where Night Demons prowled.
However, not long ago, this area suddenly welcod a burst of daylight. Zhang nglong quickly saw a large crowd gathered ahead, but oddly, those people were all lingering within a specific area, seemingly waiting for sothing or observing sothing.
"There are at least a few thousand people. It seems everyone's information network is quite efficient." Zhang nglong also joined the back of the crowd.
In front of them lay a dense, lush forest. The forest was not very deep, and one could even see a rather huge nursery existing amidst it. This nursery spanned over ten kiloters, and the strong, abundant life force sensed by Gou Dan was emanating from there.
"Tsk tsk, this aroma, this aura, these are at least Saint dicines over a million years old!" Zhang nglong, being an Alchemist, was more excited at these scents than seeing beauties.
If not for the lifecycle and growth cycle limits of ordinary dicines, these could have even reached billions of years, almost becoming sentient!
But even at a million years, this is sothing Zhang nglong had never encountered before. Moreover, there were a few dicinal materials that started growing in ancient tis—those are the real treasures.
"The value of the dicinal materials in this nursery is simply imasurable!" Zhang nglong couldn't even stop himself from drooling.
However, Zhang nglong noticed that these people were so close to the dicinal materials, yet no one was picking them. It wasn't clear what they were waiting for or observing.
"Hey, brother, why aren't you all going in?" Zhang nglong casually approached a young man and asked.
The young man was initially very impatient, but upon seeing Zhang nglong's appearance, his expression beca a lot more respectful. Among the billions of Heavenly Prides, offending others would at most get you killed, but if you offended Zhang nglong, it was like opening a Blind Box—there was simply no good outco.
Especially since he had driven away over four billion people recently, this matter had spread widely. Although Zhang nglong was initially a victim, his thods and audacity were intimidating enough to subdue everyone.
"Mr. Gu... Mr. Gu, it's like this, we're waiting for this toxic mist to disperse!"
"Toxic mist?" Zhang nglong instantly understood. No wonder an inherent treasure trove was right in front, yet no one dared to enter. The mist lingering outside was actually toxic mist?
But it's just toxic mist; it shouldn't make such a large number of people unable to move, right?
"Is this toxic mist really that formidable?" Zhang nglong continued to ask.
"Incredibly formidable, look there," the young man pointed to the entrance of the forest, where several bodies lay scattered across the ground. Those corpses had no trace of flesh, and the once white bones now had a strange purplish-black hue, clear signs of severe poisoning.
After being tainted by the toxic mist, the bones seed to be imrsed in strong acid, continuously corroded. At most, within a few minutes, those bones wouldn't last.
"That toxic mist is extrely lethal," the young man said fearfully. "So tried enveloping themselves in energy, but they barely took a few steps before the toxic mist penetrated them. Just a trace, and there's almost nothing left of them."
"Can't you fly in?"
"No, the toxic mist envelops the entire nursery, and it even seeps underground. To enter, one must penetrate that layer of toxic mist—no alternative thod exists."
"But flying over should be fine?" Zhang nglong said. "It's only a few hundred ters, passing over should be instant. You can completely dash through when the toxic mist isn't paying attention!"
"That's also impossible," the young man replied, "So have already tried this thod. The toxic mist is so dense it makes the air inside almost gummy; there's no way to pass through quickly. In attempts, hundreds have already died!"
"Is that so? Is it really that challenging?" Hearing this, Zhang nglong grew even more excited. This pose had to be struck — wasn't this the ti to take on an impossible challenge?
