Chapter 196: Senior Brother Ji, Something’s Wrong!
However, for now, he decided to harvest all the high-level spiritual plants in the spiritual herb garden first.
After all, there were hundreds of high-level spiritual plants. Although not many were in the Maturity Phase, each plant could contribute several cultivation points. Accumulated together, it would still be a significant gain, even surpassing mining and planting spiritual grains.
Of course, the difficulty of the first two options was much lower than that of the latter.
High-level spiritual plants weren’t so easy to find.
On the first day of harvesting, Ji Yang’s cultivation points had already increased from 145 to 168.
When his cultivation points broke through 150, Ji Yang noticed that the button behind the cultivation points had changed from Unavailable to Available.
This meant that he had steadily advanced a small realm through his efforts.
At the same time, Ji Yang also measured the cultivation points needed to elevate to the Nascent Soul Stage. This way, when he reached the Mid Nascent Soul realm and aimed for the Late Nascent Soul, the required cultivation points would likely be quite similar.
On the second day of harvesting, Ji Yang’s cultivation points reached 193.
Although he had enough cultivation points, Ji Yang did not rush to break through; after all, the upper limit was still high, and breaking through was just a matter of time.
Steward Fan had originally said he would return in two days, but Ji Yang had yet to see him.
However, this was a good thing for Ji Yang.
During these two days, several disciples wanted to come to the spiritual herb garden to pick spiritual plants, but all were stopped by Ji Yang.
No Sect Permission? Sorry! Not allowed!
No Elder’s Certificate? Sorry! Still not allowed!
No Contribution Points? That’s even more unacceptable!
Lost your identity token? Please prove your identity!
You have everything? Sorry, the Elder hasn’t returned, and the steward is absent. I cannot make decisions regarding the spiritual plants in this herb garden! Still not allowed!
Watching numerous disciples gritting their teeth and being forced to leave under the gaze of the law enforcement hall disciples, Ji Yang couldn’t help but sigh:
Truly, these little ghosts are difficult to deal with!
But for the sake of his own path, he was determined to stand firm against these little ones!
The key point was that the spiritual plants they came seeking were all in the Maturity Phase, which Ji Yang wouldn’t allow!
Whether they were sect disciples or disciples from various peaks, Ji Yang wouldn’t entertain any requests.
It was easy to imagine that the next one to come would be an Elder.
Thinking of an Elder’s arrival made Ji Yang feel a bit of a headache. With the Elder’s strength and power, blocking him at his current realm would be quite challenging.
Bring up Ye Wuchen?
But his own Master wasn’t invincible in the world! Other Elders might not extend this courtesy, especially since he had already acted unreasonably.
Whether it was power or reputation, in the Cultivation World, strength ultimately spoke the loudest.
This was the realization Ji Yang had after gaining control of the spiritual herb garden.
Now he was silently striving for the insights he had gained!
Inside a cave of the He Dao Sect, Elder Shu was examining a messaging talisman.
After confirming that no one had sent any messages in the past few days, he let out a long sigh and murmured,
"Have I managed to hide?"
His words, however, carried a hint of uncertainty.
Since the last time he used a secret method to return to his residence, he had opened all the formations and hung up a sign indicating he was in seclusion, trying to evade the ensuing pursuit.
Now that the Sect Master and others were under his control, escaping the sect during this period was undoubtedly unrealistic, especially since he had already used the Blood Escape Secret Technique that day.
The Four Symbols Great Formation in his cave was an ancient mystical formation that even a cultivator one realm higher would find difficult to break through, which was the fundamental reason he could hide here.
After activating the formations, he was unsurprisingly met with several inquiries.
Among them were Elder Yan and Elder Liu!
Their questioning was mostly the same, clearly a coordinated effort to lure him out.
In response, he didn’t reply to any of them.
Finally, these past two days had been much quieter, with no messages coming in. This showed that they had not completely taken control of the sect yet and did not want to openly confront him.
However, the situation was urgent, and he could not ignore it.
Once he had escaped the basic danger, Elder Shu began thinking about how to rescue the sect.
Relying solely on his own strength was impossible.
To save the sect, he needed to reach out to the other elders.
Thinking of the scene where the other elders and the Sect Master had been deceived, Elder Shu fell into contemplation.
Was it a spell? A divine technique? Or perhaps poison?
Elder Shu’s thoughts scattered in his mind.
After a short moment of reflection, he suddenly remembered that there were two top-tier spiritual plants in the spiritual herb garden: one named Indigo Treasure and the other named Wei Ling Xian.
The former countered soul poison, while the latter countered body poison.
If it truly was poison, these two top-tier spiritual plants would certainly be effective. Even if it wasn’t poison, using these two plants might help the other elders regain their lucidity.
Although he knew that venturing out now was risky, for the fate of the sect, he had to try.
Time was of the essence; he would set off immediately!
He needed to go to the spiritual herb garden and retrieve those two top-tier spiritual plants!
In the next moment, Elder Shu’s primordial spirit energy emanated from the cave, spreading outwards.
Upon sensing that everything around him was normal, Elder Shu frowned deeply!
No danger meant it could be the greatest danger!
He might not escape if he tried to hide, but the risk could actually be greater.
Since that was the case, he decided to go out openly, pretending to know nothing. Perhaps he could deceive them?
Quickly, the formation opened, and a beam of Escape Light raced toward the spiritual herb garden!
……
“Senior Brother Ji, something’s wrong! You need to come see!”
Seeing the anxious look on the disciple’s face, Ji Yang remained calm, a gentle smile spreading across his face:
“Take your time, junior brother. No need to panic! I’m here!”
Witnessing Ji Yang’s unflappable demeanor and gentle attitude filled the disciple’s gaze with respect.
If it were Steward Fan, he would surely be impatient, glaring at him and shouting about the issue.
Inspired by Ji Yang’s serene presence, the reporting disciple gradually calmed down and slowly said,
“Reporting to Senior Brother Ji, many spiritual plants in the High-Level Spirit Plant Area are having problems. It seems like they might die…”
“Why didn’t you say so sooner?!!!”
A loud crash echoed in the air, and the disciple felt a white flash before Ji Yang’s figure vanished.
“Senior Brother, where are you?”
“You told me to take my time!”
The disciple wore a look of grievance but hurried toward the High-Level Spirit Plant Area.
When Ji Yang arrived, many disciples wore solemn expressions, their brows knitted tightly.
In front of the many disciples stood several withered spiritual plants. Even those who didn’t understand spiritual plant cultivation could tell that these plants were rapidly losing their vitality.
Seeing Ji Yang arrive, many disciples felt a sense of reassurance and excitedly exclaimed,
“Senior Brother Ji is here!”
“Senior Brother Ji, please save the peach tree!”
Before that disciple, a peach-type spiritual plant was losing its fruit rapidly.
