The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Chapter 1327: Chapter 1320: Lantern Valley

Seeing the little girl’s face full of concern, Lin Tian felt a bit touched in his heart.

He reached out his hand, rubbed Xu Xiaoruo’s head, and revealed a gentle smile, saying, ”Then when I’m with you, you have to protect me!”

”Sure! Don’t worry, I won’t be as nervous as before!”

Xu Xiaoruo firmly gripped the longsword in her hand, nodded seriously at Lin Tian, but then she immediately brushed away Lin Tian’s hand, saying, ”Don’t touch my head randomly, or I won’t grow tall!”

Lin Tian couldn’t help but laugh heartily.

At this moment.

The group had already arrived at the foot of Lantern Mountain.

Beside the massive mountain range, there was a vast plain.

At the end of the plain, there was a valley, with smoke and dust billowing at the entrance, and the sounds of beastly roars rumbling continuously.

From a distance.

One could vaguely see the shadows of giant beasts galloping past in the dense forest beside the valley entrance, a truly impressive scene.

On the other end of the plain beside the valley, hundreds of figures had gathered.

The crowd was divided into three groups.

They were all watching the direction of the valley, eager to try their luck.

”Who are all these people?”

Lin Tian glanced at the people below, turned to Xu Xiaoruo beside him, and whispered.

”They are all experts like my senior sister! Just know they are very powerful, very powerful!”

Xu Xiaoruo leaned over and whispered to Lin Tian:

”That group dressed in all sorts of ways, they are all loose cultivators! Loose cultivators, you know... they cultivate on their own, wandering alone!”

”And those dozen people, wearing white clothes, with a bamboo pattern on their chests, are disciples of Beizhu Pavilion!”

”The last group are disciples of Corpse Valley! These people are the most ruthless and evil!”

”There will definitely be conflicts soon, remember to stay at the back!”

Hearing Xu Xiaoruo’s words, Lin Tian couldn’t help but squint his eyes.

He had previously noticed the group of sect disciples from Corpse Valley and Beizhu Pavilion below.

Among the groups, he saw the Beizhu Pavilion disciple Shi Yu he had seen in the tavern before, and also Nong Zhenxuan from Corpse Valley, whom he had previously beaten up.

What a coincidence!

Lin Tian withdrew his gaze, glanced at the not-so-distant valley, and then said to Xu Xiaoruo, ”What kind of treasure has appeared in this Lantern Mountain?”

”I don’t know what treasure! But when I was at the sect, I heard legends about Lantern Mountain!”

Xu Xiaoruo blinked her beautiful eyes and continued, ”In the many cultivation domains in the east, there are many, many treasured lands, rumored to be some sects’ treasure troves from the ancient cultivation world. For instance, Lantern Mountain is rumored to be one of Lann Ruo Residence’s treasure troves! However, saying Lantern Mountain is a treasure trove isn’t quite right; it’s actually a cultivation treasure land of Lann Ruo Residence! Inside, there’s the precious Lantern Spring, which has nurtured many Lantern Stones for artifact refining!”

”Among them, the most precious nurtured from Lantern Stones is the Lantern Eye! That’s the supreme treasure for artifact refining!”

”And the Lantern Spring can also nurture many, many spiritual grasses, which are treasures for cultivation!”

Lantern Mountain is truly a treasure land!

Lin Tian’s eyes slightly lit up, and his gaze towards the valley couldn’t help but sparkle.

Presently.

He was worried about lacking cultivation resources.

If Lantern Mountain truly had many spiritual grasses, he could definitely refine a large batch of elixirs!

”So you’re saying, there should be many treasures in Lantern Mountain!”

Lin Tian rubbed his chin and said softly.

Xu Xiaoruo, who was nearby, shook her head upon hearing this, and said, ”There should be spiritual grasses. But definitely not many! This Lantern Mountain has been here for thousands of years, who knows how many people have come in to plunder. Moreover, the Lantern Spring dried up over a thousand years ago, there’s nothing at all. However, recent news has it that a water spring has appeared again deep inside Lantern Mountain, so there might be treasures coming to light!”

”And each time a treasure appears, it’s accompanied by a small beast tide. Because of the Lantern Spring, there will also be Lantern Variant Beasts!”

Listening to Xu Xiaoruo’s words, Lin Tian looked up at the direction deep in the valley, where the roars of beasts rose one after another.

Corpse Valley, Beizhu Pavilion, Xuelu Inn and others all made such a big move, the rumors must be true!

”Hehe, Luan Meengzhu, is your Xuelu Inn planning to get involved too?”

Suddenly, from the group of Corpse Valley people across, the leading youth turned and looked at the group from Xuelu Inn, sneering coldly.

”Wen Quan!”

Luan Meengzhu led people down the mountain, coldly glanced at the youth, and said, ”If we didn’t come, wouldn’t that suit your plans? Would the friends from Beizhu Pavilion and other fellow Daoists be opponents for your Corpse Valley? We, Xuelu Inn, will take a share of the treasures emerging from this valley!”

Wen Quan, a core disciple of Corpse Valley, with early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, was very powerful!

But Luan Meengzhu’s strength was not weak at all, her cultivation had also reached early-stage Foundation Establishment!

Regarding Luan Meengzhu, Wen Quan was extremely apprehensive.

So upon hearing Luan Meengzhu’s words, he could only grit his teeth with a pale face.

”Very well! Each relying on their own abilities!”

Wen Quan glanced around, spoke harshly, and then looked at the disciples of Corpse Valley behind him, saying, ”Once this wave of the small beast tide passes, we enter the valley!”

And with the appearance of Luan Meengzhu and the disciples of Xuelu Inn, the group of loose cultivators and Beizhu Pavilion’s disciples present were delighted.

With the people from Xuelu Inn joining, they could fish in troubled waters even more!

Ten minutes later.

The beast tide gradually subsided.

The four groups of people moved towards the inside of the valley one after another.

”Stay close! Once this is over here, we’ll take you along when we leave, by then we’re also heading to Yanjing!”

As they walked towards the valley, Luan Meengzhu turned back and instructed Lin Tian, ”No matter what you encounter, just stay close to us, if you get separated, there’s only one outcome—death!”

Luan Meengzhu’s warning was extremely cold.

And Xu Xiaoruo, who was next to her, directly grabbed Lin Tian’s hand, and said softly, ”Brother, you just follow me! As long as it’s not a very powerful beast, I can still fend them off!”

”Alright!”

Lin Tian smiled gently and nodded.

As he followed these people into the valley, Lin Tian’s Divine Sense had already enveloped the valley.

A few hundred meters from the valley entrance, there was a pond the size of a football field, with unfathomable depths.

Around the pond, a vast swath of flowers and grasses swayed gracefully.

Among the flowers and grasses, Spiritual Energy was surging abundantly!

The flowers and grasses were all spiritual grasses!

Unfortunately, they were the most basic of spiritual grasses!

And by the pond, there were three giant beasts entrenched.

One was a giant tiger, entirely black like a small house!

One was a giant python, its whole body colorful, with eyes like lanterns!

The last was a giant wolf, its whole body exuding a faint cyan glow!

The three giant beasts were entrenched by the pond, wary of each other, constantly absorbing something from the pond.

Surrounding these three giant beasts, many other beastly creatures crouched on the ground, trembling all over, seemingly very afraid of these three giant beasts.

But they seemed to be attracted by something in the pond, unwilling to leave despite their fear.

At this point, Lin Tian’s Divine Sense immediately delved into the pond, sweeping through it.

”An underground cave! There’s a dense aura there, with spirit fog lingering! There are treasures! But... there are already two people there!”

Lin Tian raised his eyebrows, his lips curling up slightly, muttering to himself, ”This time, it was worth coming here!”
