SWOOSH…
Zhang Bin soared into the sky, his Sword Control sending him spiraling through the air like a streak of red light.
He was, of course, practicing his Sword Control abilities. Thanks to the protection of the Array Plate, he was safe within a one-hundred-kiloter radius; not even a Nascent Soul Stage Master could break in. Moreover, before Chief No. 3 had left, he had designated this entire territory to the Taiqing Sect. This land was now truly his. Therefore, he could practice his Sword Control to his heart's content in this safe place that belonged to him.
In the past, he wouldn't have dared to practice so openly. He feared that if he consud too much of his Special Ability, he would be unable to use Sword Control to kill his enemies and would be left vulnerable to an ambush. As a result, he never really knew how strong his Sword Control was or how many kiloters he could fly.
Of course, before he began, he had released He Banxian to prevent him from witnessing the secret of his Sword Control again.
WHOOSH, WHOOSH, WHOOSH…
Zhang Bin's flight grew faster and faster until his silhouette beca a blur, leaving only the red glow of his Flying Sword crisscrossing the sky.
The villagers and employees all witnessed this, of course. They grew extrely excited and began discussing it amongst themselves.
"Xiao Bin has truly beco an Immortal! His Sword Control is so much faster than that Immortal he dealt with yesterday."
"Xiao Bin is the most powerful Immortal in the world now! He's invincible, unrivaled in this world."
"The Chairman is so handso! What am I going to do? I've fallen head over heels for him."
"Chairman, you're so handso…"
"…"
After about half an hour, Zhang Bin was starting to feel the strain. The test results, recorded by Tutu, were in. His maximum flight speed on the sword could reach 500 ters per second, equivalent to 1,800 kiloters per hour. He could maintain this for half an hour, aning he could fly a maximum distance of 900 kiloters. His sword speed for killing enemies was 4,000 ters per second, double that of a Low-Grade Flying Sword. It was indeed enough to pose a threat to cultivators in the Early Gold Core Realm.
Zhang Bin landed and rested for a mont before shouting, "Big Black, Second Black, grab your tools. Let's go!"
The two gorillas howled with excitent, each grabbing a hoe and sprinting over.
"Rise!"
With a loud shout, Zhang Bin used his Telekinesis Ability to lift himself, Big Black, and Second Black into the air. With a great rush of wind, they flew toward Great Green Mountain. After his breakthrough to the Liquid State, his Telekinesis Ability could lift up to 500 kilograms. The past few days of hard cultivation, particularly after refining the True Essence Pills, had enhanced his True Qi, which in turn gave his Special Ability a boost. Big Black and Second Black were heavy, but their combined weight with Zhang Bin was well under the 500-kilogram limit.
"Could that be the legendary Riding the Clouds and Commanding the Mist?" a villager asked, his face a mask of shock. The others looked on with similar awe.
"Brother-in-law, wait for !"
"Brother, wait for !"
The charming voices of Liu Ruoi and Zhang Lele rang out urgently. Sohow, the two of them had already mounted Hong Ya and were now chasing after him at high speed. Ever since Zhang Lele returned, she'd grown fond of Hong Ya and loved to ride her through the sky every day. Liu Ruoi shared the sa hobby, so they often flew together.
Just last night, Hong Ya had refined another True Essence Pill. Her body had grown by another ten percent, and her strength had increased significantly. Carrying two people was no strain at all; in fact, it was quite easy for her. Zhang Bin was actually happy to see them flying on Hong Ya, as it was good training for her ability to carry passengers. He wasn't worried about safety, either. He had previously trained her by throwing stones from her back, and she could always react in ti to catch them in her claws.
And so, under countless blazing gazes, they flew until they disappeared from sight.
Soon, they landed in a valley filled with Spiritual dicine. Zhang Bin had naturally nad it Lingyao Valley, as it was originally a Naless Valley. It was wide, covering at least five square kiloters. Scattered stones dotted the landscape, and the soil was too shallow for large trees to grow, leaving only thorns and thatch. Zhang Bin had already transford parts of it, planting many Spiritual dicines, but it was far from full. After all, his ability to gather Spiritual Energy was limited, so he didn't dare plant too much.
"It's so beautiful!" Zhang Lele shouted in delight, hopping down with Liu Ruoi to look around.
A small stream wound through the center of the valley, its banks lined with huge boulders of blue, white, and red. The land on both sides was planted with dicinal flora, creating a lush, vibrant green vista. Small fish could even be seen swimming in the stream.
Zhang Bin took out the Spiritual dicines he had received as compensation from the Daoyi Sect from his Space Ring. Big Black and Second Black imdiately got to work, happily planting them. These Spiritual dicines were all between four hundred and five hundred years old. Their root systems were intact, and they had been freshly excavated.
There were about two hundred plants each of Ginseng, Lingzhi, Polygonum Multiflorum, Tie Pi Shi Hu, and Solomon's Seal. This was a huge fortune, containing the very treasures Zhang Bin lacked most.
Although he could use Spiritual Water to cultivate Spiritual dicine and rapidly increase its dicinal power, it was a slow process. Given five years, he could cultivate many with over five hundred years of potency. But as things stood, he had no reliable way to obtain Spiritual dicine over five hundred years old, aside from the Hero Auction. The auction, however, was held only once a year and required enormous wealth to win anything. These new plants solved his imdiate problem. With just a few months of cultivation, their dicinal power would exceed five hundred years, and he could refine more True Essence Pills. Even better, so of them, like Polygonum Multiflorum with over five hundred years of potency, were one of the main ingredients for refining the Evergreen Pill.
I need to diligently test the properties of more plants, find the rest of the ingredients for the Evergreen Pill, and cultivate them in this valley. Zhang Bin thought to himself as he gazed at the beautiful valley.
In recent days, he had already analyzed many plants and had actually discovered several that could be used to refine the Evergreen Pill. Though they looked different from the ones on Xuanwu Star, their dicinal properties were similar. Because of this, his confidence in successfully refining the pill was growing. He had to repay Gao Si as soon as possible; otherwise, he would be too ashad to face him. He was collecting Spirit Stones every day and estimated he would have over two thousand by the Spring Festival. The only thing he lacked was the Evergreen Pill.
SWOOSH! SWOOSH!
Xiao Qian and Da Huang darted out from the dense forest. Xiao Qian then took the day's plant specins out of her Space Ring. The two of them, of course, spent their days collecting samples from the forest for Zhang Bin to analyze.
"Huh?" A look of wild joy spread across Zhang Bin's face. His eyes locked onto a small tree, barely a ter tall. On its branches hung a single green fruit. "Can this be… an Immortal Tree?"
