Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 746: Chapter 744, Rare Treasure

Ye Qingxin had previously been injured by Xu Qinglin. Although Xu Wendong had treated her, she had not fully recovered. However, after his thorough treatment, Ye Qingxin’s injuries were completely healed.

Not only that, her cultivation level had even increased to the Third Level of Qi Refinement Realm.

Ye Qingxin’s cultivation level was not considered strong.

But with her current cultivation level, she could kill a mid-stage Qi Refinement Realm expert, after all, she had previously surpassed the Great Grandmaster level.

Her physical body was so powerful even Foundation Establishment Stage experts were envious.

However, Xu Wendong had not achieved a breakthrough.

It wasn’t that he wasn’t working hard; in fact, he hadn’t taken any nights off recently. However, wanting to enhance his cultivation level in the later stages was as difficult as climbing to the heavens.

Aside from taking elixirs, the quickest way was to find a female cultivator with a higher cultivation level than him to practice dual cultivation with.

But...

There were too few females with cultivation levels higher than his.

The next day.

Before dawn, Xu Wendong and Ye Qingxin left the Immortal Island Minor World of Penglai.

After consuming a bucket of instant noodles, the three continued on their journey.

The next destination was fifty kilometers away, at Baiyue Stone.

There were few people there, making it a place beyond the reach of ordinary people. However, at the peak of that mountain stood a humanoid statue about three meters high, which assumed a position of worshiping the moon during the full moon.

Therefore, the place was called Baiyue Stone.

The further east they went, the more rugged and difficult the path became, and the mountain was unusually quiet. Rarely were birds or beasts seen, which made a person uneasy.

”The historical records say that the quieter the place, the higher the probability of some kind of Heaven and Earth Treasures appearing,” Ye Qingxin said nervously, glancing around.

”Look, the vegetation here is not as lush as it is elsewhere,” Qian Duoduo also noticed something unusual, feeling that the surrounding vegetation seemed withered.

”If I’m not mistaken, there should be some Heaven and Earth Treasures nearby, definitely absorbing the nutrients of the surrounding plants,” Xu Wendong’s heart raced.

He hadn’t expected there to be so many treasures in the Qinling Mountains, which excited him greatly. Even if they didn’t find the Medicine King Valley Ruins, this journey wouldn’t be in vain.

Ye Qingxin’s gaze finally rested above a towering tree, exclaiming, ”Look, there’s a White Jade Ganoderma.”

”Whoa, it’s the legendary White Jade Ganoderma?” Qian Duoduo felt a shiver down his spine. Although Lingzhi was quite common, the white one belonged to the legendary existence, and its efficacy was several dozen times more potent than ordinary Lingzhi.

”This is a really good find. Although this White Jade Ganoderma is only about the size of a bowl, it’s an invaluable treasure. When ground into powder and consumed, it can rejuvenate the body and prolong life.”

White Jade Ganoderma was no ordinary item. When consumed by ordinary people, it could improve their constitution and extend their life.

For cultivators, if they could obtain several other rare herbs, it could be used to refine pills that enhance cultivation levels.

Yes, Foundation Establishment Pills also required this herb.

”I’ll go pick that White Jade Ganoderma,” Qian Duoduo said, wanting to leap up. Although the White Jade Ganoderma was thirty meters above the ground, he had long since entered the Great Grandmaster realm.

That height was nothing to him at all.

”Don’t go!” Xu Wendong stopped him.

”What’s wrong?” Qian Duoduo asked, puzzled.

Xu Wendong said, ”This place can nurture such Heaven and Earth Treasures, and the surroundings are intriguingly quiet. Don’t you feel something is very wrong?”

Qian Duoduo instinctively swallowed, ”You mean there’s a terrifying presence living around here?”

Ye Qingxin surveyed the surroundings, ”Theoretically, terrifying creatures always accompany Heaven and Earth Treasures, but there aren’t any here.”

Sometimes the presence of powerful creatures wasn’t scary.

It was scarier when there were no terrifying creatures.

As the saying goes, anomalies imply ghosts. Even Xu Wendong’s expression became extremely solemn as he looked at Ye Qingxin and Qian Duoduo, ”You two, retreat back out of this withered area.”

Ye Qingxin and Qian Duoduo immediately retreated hundreds of meters back. The area they stood in was lush and green, contrasting sharply with the desolate region where Xu Wendong stood.

Once the two retreated, Xu Wendong summoned his Dragon Scale Sword. His Soul Force expanded, and he leaped into the air, flying toward the White Jade Ganoderma.

He stayed vigilant, observing every stir in the wind, hoping not to encounter anything unusual. As he neared within ten meters of the White Jade Ganoderma, an unexpected change occurred.

Without any warning, a withered vine attacked from the air. The vine was as thick as an adult’s wrist and covered in shriveled bark.

It immediately wrapped around Xu Wendong’s ankle, fiercely dragging him toward the ground.

Even though Xu Wendong’s spiritual force had been on high alert, he hadn’t sensed any impending danger.

”Damn it,” Xu Wendong’s face turned pale. He hadn’t expected a vine to wrap around his ankle. He realized he had stumbled upon a Mountain Spirit.

Without a moment’s delay, he slashed at the vine with his sword. However, before the longsword could cut down, another vine burst forth from the ground, entwining his right hand in an instant.

The suddenness of the situation shocked Ye Qingxin and Qian Duoduo at a distance. Though tales of Mountain Spirits and Ghosts existed, who would have thought they would encounter one?

And even Xu Wendong, a formidable presence, was controlled, stirring a deep foreboding within the two.

”Break for me!”

With Xu Wendong’s roar, the Golden Iron Sheet flew out from his body, instantly severing the vines entwining his hand and ankle.

Regaining mobility, he stepped through the air, flying towards Ye Qingxin and Qian Duoduo. Only when he left the desolate region did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking at his wrists and ankles, blood had begun to seep out.

”You got hurt?” Ye Qingxin was deeply shocked. She knew Xu Wendong’s physical form was extremely formidable and he practiced the Buddhist Sect’s Golden Bell Shield Iron Cloth Shirt. Who would have thought his body could be injured?

”This thing is too strong,” Xu Wendong remarked with lingering fear, looking back ahead. His wrists and ankles throbbed with a burning pain, but it was nothing compared to the intense shock within him.

The power of that Mountain Spirit was terrifying, so dreadful that his Golden Bell Shield and Iron Cloth Shirt couldn’t withstand the damage.

Luckily, he had an iron sheet that cut those two vines, allowing him to successfully escape the predicament. Otherwise, he might have perished there today.

”What on earth is this creature?” Qian Duoduo felt chills run down his spine. Just releasing two vines had already injured Xu Wendong. What would its true form be like?

If it revealed its true form, how powerful would it become?

Xu Wendong stood silently, his expression stern, ”The Age of Dharma Decline is far behind us. Now that nature’s spiritual energy is resurging, is this really a good thing?”
