Translator: 549690339

One black-robed man falls!

“Not good!”

The remaining black-robed men immediately turned pale with fright.

This is too terrifying! One cut and he kills one of their own. They only have a few guys left, how could they withstand a few more cuts from him?

They wanted to escape, but it was already too late.

Meng Chong kept cutting down one after another. With six slashes, six Grandmaster Martial Artists were slaughtered.

After killing the people, Meng Chong excitedly looted the bodies and emptied their money pouches, then his blazing Sword Intent rolled out, reducing the bodies to ashes.

“Impudent!”

An angry roar came from the sky.

The Great Grandmaster was horrified. Their six Grandmasters, like cabbages, were all slaughtered one by one by that bald brute!

Not even a bit of resistance!

These were Grandmaster Martial Artists for god’s sake, training just one costs a lot of resources, and those who could become Grandmasters, would surely have high talent!

“Dare to be distracted in front of me?”

Xu Yan sneered; perhaps, the opponent was seeking a quicker death?

Aroo!

The dragon roared, the Sword Intent enveloped everything, the mountains and rivers overturned, and the Golden Dragon spiraled around.

Following that, another Heaven Burning Golden Flame Sword was launched!

“Not good!”

The black-robed Great Grandmaster turned pale with fear. He hurriedly collected his thoughts. The curved sword in his hand was shattering inch by inch, radiating a terrifying light.

He must escape!

He felt a deadly crisis descending!

Absolutely determined, he used his secret technique. With the explosion of the curved sword, a powerful strike was launched, intending to break through the opponent’s onslaught and escape.

Xu Yan raised an eyebrow. A martial arts secret technique?

This was his first encounter with a Martial Artist who used a martial arts secret technique, and moreover, a mid-level Great Grandmaster.

Martial arts secret techniques were extremely rare in the Inner Domain, only existing in powerful forces that have deep foundations.

Especially powerful secret techniques, only belong to the top-notch powers.

Don’t think that the Seven-star Study Palace seems like they have many martial arts secret techniques. However, those truly compatible with a martial artist’s cultivation technique, and can be cultivated, are not actually many.

Not every martial arts secret technique, can be cultivated—nor was every martial arts secret technique capable of unleashing a powerful combat force.

Furthermore, you need a foundation of talent in order to successfully cultivate a secret technique.

There should be no conflict with your own cultivation technique.

Generally, martial arts secret techniques were passed down along with their respective influences. Only then there would be no conflicts, and it would be suitable for cultivation.

The secret techniques of the Seven-star Study Palace were quite diverse, covering various types. Traditional students wanting to cultivate these secret techniques needed to find one that matched their cultivation technique.

A regular martial arts student, usually had no opportunity to come into contact with it.

“What difference does it make if it’s the Martial Arts Secret Technique? Can you escape?”

Xu Yan sneered once again. As for the Inner Domain’s martial arts secret techniques, he didn’t give them much value.

Most martial arts secret techniques were difficult to activate and were destructive to oneself. The power they unleashed, in his view, was just so-so.

Not a big improvement.

Urgently, Xu Yan used his sword technique. The mountains and rivers overlapped, the Golden Dragon spiraled. Within a blink of an eye, Encircled by Eighteen Golden Dragons; it was as if eighteen Golden Dragons were manipulating the mountains and rivers, it enveloped everything beneath.

Boom!

The black-robed figure exploded with brilliant light. A powerful aura exploded out and crushed the mountains and rivers; it seemed like a strike would break through the Sword Intent of the mountains and rivers!

However, there were mountains upon mountains, seemingly boundless. In a blink of an eye, numerous figures appeared, wielding swords. His Sword Light had already enveloped him.

“No…”

The black-robed Great Grandmaster’s eyes were full of fright. He couldn’t believe it and let out a cry, but he couldn’t make a sound anymore.

Crack!

His head split open, his entire body started to disintegrate, his black robe shattered, and a bag fell down.

Xu Yan held up the bag in his hand and snorted, “Thinking you could survive so long if I hadn’t been worried about damaging my money bag?

“Thinking you could get away by using secret techniques?”

The black-robed figure kept disintegrating until it finally turned into ashes and dissipated.

Xu Yan happily opened the bag and found a stack of Spirit Bills inside. Each one had a limit of ten thousand.

There were more than thirty of them.

“Nice, nice. As expected from a Great Grandmaster, another fortune is in my hands!”

The organization that the man in black cloak belongs to is rather wealthy. I wonder where their lair is. 1 really want to take it down and make a fortune.

Xu Yan rued.

If he took down their lair, wouldn’t he never be poor again?

“This power, has not just one, but likely multiple Great Grandmasters at their peaks. With my current power, taking down their lair is rather difficult.

“I’m not in a hurry. Once 1 break through to the Perfect Innate Realm or even penetrate the Tongxuan Realm, I can then take down their lair. When my disciple sister returns to the Inner Domain, I don’t believe they will not show up.

“Once they reveal themselves, 1 will eventually find their lair!”

Xu Yan muttered to himself.

Upon reaching the cave entrance, he looked forward with anticipation, “Is this the entrance to the spiritual medicine treasury?”

“Yes!”

Meng Shushu nodded.

He was greatly shocked. That was a middle-grade Great Grandmaster who couldn’t defend against a few sword strokes and was annihilated. Xu Yan’s power was truly terrifying.

Soon, however, he cheered up again. He might owe a lot, but having such a powerful backing seemed worth it.

“Go, let’s go in!”

Xu Yan waved his hand and said.

Inside the cave, the mottled stone wall revealed no trace of a door.

There was only a small round hole on one side of the stone wall.

Meng Shushu took out a key, which was a small hammer, and put it in the round hole. He twisted the handle of the hammer and, with a click, the hammer head sprang open, seemingly hooking onto something inside the hole.

With vigorous twisting, there were cracking noises followed by vibrating stone walls and falling dust. At some point, there was a thud, as if something had been moved aside.

Meng Shushu pushed the stone wall, and with rumbles, it opened inward. A faint light could be seen inside.

“Let’s go, the door is open!”

Meng Shushu flicked his hand, sending a few forces flying in, seemingly probing something.

Then he eagerly walked into the tunnel followed closely by Xu Yan and Meng Chong.

When entering the tunnel and looking up, they found that the top of the tunnel was like a patchwork of stones, which would collapse instantly if forcibly opened.

“This has been ingeniously constructed!”

Xu Yan exclaimed.

Meng Shushu excitedly said, “It’s confirmed; this place was previously a spiritual medicine sect where spiritual medicines were cultivated!”

The faint light from the front was getting brighter. When they walked out of the tunnel, all three of them were amazed at the scene in front of them.

Despite the passage of considerable time, one could vaguely see sections of medicinal fields. Each section had spiritual herbs planted on it.

As Meng Shushu had said, this was once the site of the spiritual medicine sect, a place for cultivating spiritual herbs.

Beams of light were cast from all directions and also from overhead.

The three of them followed the light, beams of which were streaming in through small openings, illuminating the entire mountain space.

Above them, there were a dozen lines of cracks. The light outside the mountain projected through these cracks, ensuring that the space inside the mountains isn’t pitch dark.

“This mountain was man-made.”

Xu Yan spoke gravely.

No traces of human intervention were visible from the outside, but inside, they could clearly see signs of clever assembly.

A martial artist with lower skills couldn’t forcibly break in here.

If a martial artist above the rank of Grandmaster were to forcibly invade, it would trigger a chain reaction. The entire mountain would collapse, crushing the spiritual herbs leading to no gains at all.

“The lowest rank here is the eight-grade spiritual medicine!”

Meng Shushu said excitedly.

Although there weren’t many spiritual medicines left in each medicinal field, when added together, the quantity of spiritual medicine was quite considerable.

“The spiritual medicines planted in the mountains generally prefer dark places; they are usually quite rare and difficult to find.”

Meng Shushu began to dig the herbs, explaining as he did.

“For instance, this ground moon shoot likes dark places. Its bamboo stalk is slender, and doesn’t grow higher than three feet…”

Meng Shushu referred to a small bamboo plant in front of him.

He quickly dug out the ground moon shoot from the ground.

The size of a baby’s fist and half a foot long, the freshly dug shoot was clad in a white husk, and a faint bamboo scent permeated around.

“Meng Shushu, you are a spiritual medicine scout, you know how to dig and preserve spiritual medicines, so tell us, what’s the correct way to dig and preserve them?”

Xu Yan and Meng Chong also excitedly began to dig the spiritual medicines.

Most of these medicines were on Su Lingxiu’s medicine list..
