Chapter 91: The Secret of Shennong Great Forest
Upon hearing Bai Chen’s words, Liu Jiaoxue’s face lit up with joy. She rushed in front of Bai Chen, about to hug him, even puckering her lips to kiss him.
Bai Chen sidestepped and said lightly,
“I cannot guarantee your safety.”
At that moment, Jiang Yuan Ji and a few others arrived behind Liu Jiaoxue.
Seeing Bai Chen stop made them all breathe a sigh of relief, their sense of security greatly increasing.
At this point, Jiang Yuan Ji didn’t want to doubt Bai Chen’s strength anymore.
He hoped that Bai Chen was truly a grandmaster expert.
The group closely followed Bai Chen.
As they ventured deeper, the spiritual energy Bai Chen sensed grew stronger.
Liu Jiaoxue and the others noticed the surrounding air becoming fresher and more pleasant, taking deep breaths.
Liu Jiaoxue, watching Bai Chen move as if walking on flat ground, felt even more astonished.
“Could it be that he really is a grandmaster expert?”
During the day, she had observed Song Hanjing traveling, but he could not do it like Bai Chen.
Bai Chen walked a bit, stopped, and changed his position constantly.
Liu Jiaoxue and the others had long lost track of where they were, and fear began to creep into their hearts.
If Bai Chen got lost here, wouldn’t they all be unable to find their way out?
Fortunately, it wasn’t long before Bai Chen stopped moving.
By this time, Liu Jiaoxue and the others were already panting heavily.
But as they borrowed the light of the faint moon, their eyes widened in disbelief at the scene before them!
Huge stone pillars lay scattered, covered in moss and cracks.
But faintly, they could see carvings on the pillars.
Dragons and phoenixes soared, and unicorns treaded on clouds…
“What… what is this…”
Liu Jiaoxue stared in a daze, reaching out to touch the stone pillars, unable to help murmuring.
Jiang Yuan Ji and the others were even more astonished, standing there for a long time, unable to recover their wits.
Bai Chen stepped into this ruin, a hint of nostalgia flashing in his eyes, followed by a deep sense of time’s passage.
“Time has passed, and the world has changed. I didn’t expect the starting point of the secret realm back then to turn into this.”
Seeing the stone pillars, Bai Chen recognized the place.
This was the starting point of the barrier into Shennong ten thousand years ago.
“After ten thousand years, the barrier has indeed loosened a lot.”
Bai Chen looked into the distance, his pupils slightly reddening.
In his line of sight, a faint white light radiated from a distance, forming a basin-like barrier turned upside down in the forest.
Bai Chen did not hesitate and prepared to get up again.
However, before leaving, Bai Chen scanned his surroundings.
“This place hasn’t been tread upon for ten thousand years; there must still be many good things here. Although they are useless to me, they are treasures for Nian Nian and Yue Ran.”
Thinking of this, Bai Chen immediately began searching the area.
Seeing this, Liu Jiaoxue’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
“Let’s look for some too!”
Soon, Bai Chen found many herbs aged two to three hundred years.
He even discovered a four-hundred-year-old ginseng brimming with spiritual energy.
Because of the proximity to the barrier, the herbs here were all infused with spiritual energy.
Calling them spiritual herbs would not be an exaggeration.
As Bai Chen searched for herbs, his gaze suddenly landed on a lush green little grass.
“Is this Zhagang Grass? How could such a thing be here?”
Bai Chen collected the Zhagang Grass and returned to the stone door ruins.
Liu Jiaoxue and the others showed delighted expressions, likely having found plenty of good things.
However, Liu Jiaoxue handed all those things over to Bai Chen with great respect.
After this encounter, Liu Jiaoxue realized something was off.
Bai Chen’s strength was far beyond what they imagined!
And he was full of secrets!
How else could Bai Chen have reached this place directly?
Bai Chen glanced at the herbs Liu Jiaoxue brought, lightly saying,
“Keep these for yourself; I have no use for them. Just give me those green little grasses.”
Hearing this, Liu Jiaoxue respectfully handed over the Zhagang Grass to Bai Chen.
Bai Chen did not linger and continued toward the distant barrier.
Seeing this, Liu Jiaoxue and the others quickly followed.
The sky was gradually brightening, and Bai Chen arrived at the barrier’s edge.
Looking at the scene before him, Bai Chen was slightly stunned.
Who could have thought there would be a lake hidden deep within the Shennong Great Forest?
Moreover, on the island in the center of the lake, there stood a small thatched cottage.
However, all of this was blocked by a faint white barrier.
In Liu Jiaoxue’s eyes, there was still a vast expanse of lush green trees.
Seeing Bai Chen stop, Liu Jiaoxue and the others were momentarily taken aback.
“Why aren’t you leaving?”
Bai Chen looked at Liu Jiaoxue and said lightly,
“You all just rest well and stay quiet.”
After saying this, Bai Chen vanished in a flash.
Seeing this, everyone widened their eyes in disbelief. Was he even human?
“Miss, it seems Bai Chen is indeed a grandmaster!”
Jiang Yuan Ji couldn’t help but swallow, feeling utterly shocked.
Liu Jiaoxue nodded in a daze, her gaze lost.
Bai Chen’s figure appeared high above, quietly floating in the air.
If anyone had seen this scene, they would have surely dropped their jaws in amazement.
In the martial arts world, a grandmaster could only float briefly, while a great grandmaster could maintain that suspension for a while.
But someone like Bai Chen, who soared directly in the sky, surpassed their imagination!
This was truly the means of an immortal!
Bai Chen’s gaze focused on the barrier, his eyes narrowing.
“Indeed, the spiritual energy here has overflowed too much over ten thousand years; the barrier can no longer hold.”
“According to this situation, the barrier will likely dissipate within a day.”
“Could the so-called divine medicine be inside?”
“Whose dwelling could that be? The power to set up such a grand formation must have been greater than mine ten thousand years ago.”
“To be safe, I should wait a bit. If the master of this dwelling left something behind, it wouldn’t be good.”
With Bai Chen’s current strength, breaking the barrier would be as easy as turning his hand.
But he feared that if he broke the barrier, everything inside would dissipate along with it.
That was something he did not want to see.
At first, Bai Chen had come for the divine medicine.
Now he increasingly believed that the so-called divine medicines were just ordinary herbs within this barrier.
The spiritual energy within the barrier maintained the standards of ten thousand years ago, making even the most ordinary herbs transform into divine medicines.
Bai Chen returned to his original spot and sat down calmly, waiting.
Meanwhile, Liu Jiaoxue and the others, already exhausted and sleepy, couldn’t help but drift off to deep sleep.
Perhaps due to the air filled with spiritual energy, they slept particularly soundly and didn’t wake until nightfall.
At night, Bai Chen slightly raised his eyes and noticed that the barrier could no longer maintain even the most basic illusion.
Ripples faintly passed through the air, and a pale white glow gradually emerged.
Seeing this, Bai Chen stood up.
Liu Jiaoxue and the others were startled awake by Bai Chen’s movement, each of them blinking sleepily.
When they saw the scene before them, their eyes widened instantly, their minds clearing in an instant.
“What is that?!”
Liu Jiaoxue exclaimed, her mouth agape in disbelief as she looked at the spectacle.
The impact of everything in front of her was simply overwhelming.
Bai Chen said lightly,
“The barrier is about to open.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the pale white glow before him transformed into a white beam of light shooting straight into the sky!
