Chapter 141: News About The Blood Spiritual Ginseng

The Elder before them was the youngest Inner Elder the Taihang Sect had seen in a thousand years, with unfathomable cultivation. Rumors claimed he had already stepped into the Yuan Emperor Realm.

Even across the entire continent—consisting of One Mountain, Two Religious Sects, Three Sects, and Four Schools—Bi Zhang Qian was renowned. In his youth, he had moved about unhindered, bringing fame to his generation with his peerless talent and grace!

“Those who are injured, quickly heal yourselves!”

Bi Zhang Qian glanced at the disciples in the area as he secretly frowned. Several were severely wounded, and many more had suffered light injuries. Even the few who had escaped injury were panting and in miserable condition.

“Elder Bi, why are there beasts from the Demonic True Realm when we have only been in the Grand Beast Canyon for a few days?” asked the heavily wounded young man. According to their gathered information, although the Grand Beast Canyon was the passageway to the Demon Woods, powerful beasts of the Demonic True Realm typically appeared only deep within the Demon Woods.

Yet now, at merely the outer range of the Grand Beast Canyon, they had encountered such powerful Demonic True Realm beasts.

“All of this must be related to the Demon Emperor!” Bi Zhang Qian stated, slightly arching his eyebrow as the treasure sword in his hand disappeared.

“Demon Emperor!” The disciples from the Taihang Sect trembled uncontrollably upon hearing these words.

The Demonic Emperor Realm was overwhelmingly powerful. At present, only Elder Bi could contend against them—the disciples wouldn’t even be able to withstand the ripples created from such a fight.

“The Blood Spiritual Ginseng has appeared in the Grand Beast Canyon, so the nearest Demon Emperor must have sensed it, as they too wish to acquire it. That’s why so many beasts have appeared here,” Bi Zhang Qian said, his gaze growing grave. With the Taihang Sect’s status, obtaining a Yellow Grade elixir wasn’t difficult.

But this time, he needed the Blood Spiritual Ginseng for something specific. Furthermore, it was a Blood Spiritual Ginseng that possessed intelligence, so he had to obtain it no matter what.

However, beasts of the Demonic Emperor Realm had also sensed it.

Moreover, other strong cultivators were searching the Grand Beast Canyon for the Blood Spiritual Ginseng’s whereabouts. It seemed obtaining it would not be an easy task.

“Second Uncle, if this is the case, is the news about the Blood Spiritual Ginseng true?” Bi Ling asked. Her Second Uncle had entered the Grand Beast Canyon several days ahead, so he must have verified the news. Speaking of which, Bi Ling couldn’t help but think of that strange young man who had seemed interested in the Blood Spiritual Ginseng. Could he be in the Grand Beast Canyon now? Zhou Da, Guo Yan, and the others were still furious with him.

“The news about the Blood Spiritual Ginseng should be genuine, and it has already stepped into the Demonic Void Realm. It has gone into hiding, knowing that many powerful cultivators seek it,” Bi Zhang Qian responded.

“Elder, the Blood Spiritual Ginseng seems skilled at hiding. Finding it will be challenging,” remarked a strong cultivator from the Taihang Sect. A Spiritual Herb like the Blood Spiritual Ginseng was naturally adept at concealment; locating it would not be simple.

“That is not entirely true,” Bi Zhang Qian said with a slight smile. “According to circulating information, although the Blood Spiritual Ginseng had broken through to the Demonic Void Realm, its location was revealed when it attempted the breakthrough, and it was interrupted before completing the tribulation. By my calculations, if the Blood Spiritual Ginseng doesn’t undergo the tribulation in the next few days, its cultivation will regress, making future breakthrough attempts even more difficult.” He paused momentarily, his expression shifting. With a light sigh, he continued, “So, regardless of circumstances, the Blood Spiritual Ginseng must undergo the tribulation again within these few days. When that happens, a fierce battle will erupt among all the powerful cultivators.”

Later, atop the towering mountain peak where clouds drifted about, the Taihang Sect disciples each took an elixir and began recovering through meditation.

The young and powerful cultivators leading the Taihang Sect had sustained even more severe injuries. After consuming their elixirs, they sat cross-legged, circulating the power within their bodies. Light surged from their forms, filling the air with a terrifying presence.

Bi Zhang Qian was responsible for protecting this group of disciples. Having received information about the Blood Spiritual Ginseng, he had come to the Grand Beast Canyon. Coincidentally, a batch of personal disciples needed field training, and the responsibility for their safety had fallen to him—this was partly why the Taihang Sect had endured for so long.

In several years, these young disciples would mature into the Taihang Sect’s core strength.

“Second Uncle, must we continue deeper into the Grand Beast Canyon?” Bi Ling asked, having approached Bi Zhang Qian. She wasn’t rushing to heal, as her injuries weren’t serious.

Given the cultivation level of the beasts they’d encountered today, venturing further might mean facing even more powerful creatures.

Bi Zhang Qian chuckled. He had always doted on this niece since her childhood. He passed an elixir to Bi Ling while saying, “We will wait here for a few days.”

“Thank you, Second Uncle.” Bi Ling grinned without ceremony. Since childhood, she had been closer to her second uncle than to her biological father.

“Go heal and recover. When the Blood Spiritual Ginseng appears, all of you must stay as far away as possible. With your current cultivation, there’s simply nothing you can do.” Bi Zhang Qian stared ahead with brooding eyes and added, “The Blood Spiritual Ginseng might be too frightened to enter the Demon Woods. There’s a possibility it’s somewhere in these areas.”

Inside a chaotic forest, a sky-high tree had fallen. A two-foot-tall ferocious bear lay on the ground, its thick skin and flesh dripping blood, its body covered in saber wounds deep enough to expose bone.

“Two hundred and eighth!” Su Yi sheathed his saber. In ten days within the Grand Beast Canyon, he had already eliminated 208 beasts.

But during these ten days, Su Yi hadn’t ventured too deep into the Canyon, as the beasts’ cultivation levels grew increasingly higher. He had even encountered several Demonic Spirit Realm beasts.

Against Demonic Spirit Realm beasts, Su Yi had no chance of victory. He could only activate the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique to frighten them away.

Su Yi finally understood why mercenary groups and adventurer teams didn’t dare venture carelessly into the Grand Beast Canyon. If not for the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique’s apparent ability to frighten beasts, he too wouldn’t have lasted so long inside.

During these ten days, Su Yi spent his daylight hours training—cultivating the Three Sabres of the Raging Dragon, Seven Injuries Fist, and occasionally practicing arm strength with the broken heavy sword.

Of course, he hadn’t neglected cultivating the Heavens Taming Incantation. With his identity as a Soul Tamer, Su Yi took this very seriously.

However, within the Forest of Demons, the identity of a Soul Tamer wasn’t particularly advantageous. Su Yi knew what he lacked most was still the most fundamental grinding.

At night, Su Yi would find places to hide and cultivate in the mysterious space.

Then, during the day, he would resume his slaughter, often risking his life when encountering Demonic Xuan Realm Third or Fourth Grade beasts.
