NOVPUB"The canyon ahead is the one I mentioned, but this area has been monopolized by the Medicine King Valley and the Feng Family. This is the Feng Family's area of influence, so nobody dares to covet this medicine field," Bu Keng pointed toward the dense jungle ahead and explained.
Xu Nian frowned slightly.
If that was the case, then obtaining Spiritual Medicine from this field would undoubtedly become very difficult.
Even just going in to explore would be incredibly challenging.
"What kind of strength does the Feng Family have? How strong is their strongest member?" Xu Nian asked tentatively.
"The patriarch of the Feng Family is their strongest member, a practitioner in the Harmonization Realm," Bu Keng answered truthfully.
"Only in the Harmonization Realm?" Xu Nian asked in surprise.
Bu Keng couldn't help but roll his eyes at Xu Nian.
"You think Heavenly Phenomenon Realm experts are as common as cabbages? You should know that even the most powerful members of the Four Great Families are in the Harmonization Realm, and having one or two Harmonization Realm experts is already quite impressive for these families. Only the Three Great Sects possess Heavenly Phenomenon Realm experts," Bu Keng explained.
Xu Nian was taken aback.
He had encountered the Dark God Island Master during this period.
And he was accompanied by Xuan Hong, a Heavenly Phenomenon practitioner.
This gave him an illusion.
He thought that the Cultivation World was filled with practitioners of the Zifu Realm.
That reaching Cave Void or Harmonization was commonplace, and even Heavenly Phenomenon Realm experts wouldn't be anything special.
But now it seemed that it wasn't as he had imagined.
Reaching the Harmonization Realm didn't seem to be an easy task.
It seemed like Bu Keng saw through Xu Nian's thoughts.
"Indeed, there are many strong cultivators in the Cultivation World, but that depends on the planet. Our planet naturally doesn't have many powerful cultivators as it's known as a Low Grade Cultivation Planet, so naturally there won't be many Heavenly Phenomenon Realm experts," Bu Keng explained resignedly.
Xu Nian nodded in realization.
The Cultivation World, just like this continent.
Remote cities wouldn't have many powerful individuals.
A Zifu Realm practitioner in a remote city would already be considered skilled.
But in those central cities, a Zifu isn't really noteworthy.
It's the same with planets; there are also classifications.
And this Low Grade Planet - it means that the planet Xu Nian was on was not one abundant with powerful cultivators.
"What about Medicine King Valley then?" Xu Nian continued to inquire.
"Medicine King Valley isn't considered a massive force. The Medicine King of Medicine King Valley is a Mid-grade Alchemist. He claims to be the Medicine King, and his own cultivation is just at the Early Stage of the Cave Void, but because of his status as a Mid-grade Alchemist, he is extremely respected across the Tianlan Continent, and even the Four Great Families are quite deferential to him," Bu Keng disclosed.
Upon hearing this, Xu Nian understood quite a bit.
A Mid-grade Alchemist—there wasn't much to fear then.
After all, others cared about his status, but Xu Nian didn't.
When it came to professions, Xu Nian himself was a Mid-grade Refiner, and his status was not inferior to that of this Medicine King.
"What about this Ancient Strange Beast you mentioned?" Xu Nian inquired again.
Since these people gathered here had still not acquired any Spiritual Medicine.
This meant that the Ancient Strange Beast was very powerful.
"It's a Harmonization Peak Level Iron Blood Demon Spider that not only controls a massive number of spiders, but its web, which can't be cut even by Low Grade Spiritual Artifacts and has incredibly strong stickiness. Once you are stuck, even a Harmonization Expert cannot escape, and its spider legs are incredibly sharp, absolutely comparable to a Mid-grade Spiritual Artifact. Therefore, so far, any cultivator who's approached that medicine field has been killed completely," Bu Keng recited a Buddhist chant, seemingly praying for the souls of those who had died.
Xu Nian was shocked.
He didn't expect that an Ancient Mutant hidden in the Ancient Relics would be an Iron Blood Demon Spider.
Xu Nian also had a certain understanding of the Iron Blood Demon Spider.
He had once read about it in an ancient book on Exotic Beasts.
Iron Blood Demon Spider is a tremendously terrifying Ancient Mutant.
This Demon Beast carries the bloodline of the Immortal Vajra Ape, hence its body is extraordinarily tough.
Once upon the battlefield, it was essentially a killing machine.
And it was also the king of spider-shaped Demon Beasts.
It could command all spider-like Demon Beasts within a thousand miles to form a large army.
No wonder the Feng Family and Medicine King Valley had difficulty taking over this small Medicine Field.
Not to mention the Feng Family, which only had a Harmonization expert present, even if someone from the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm came, they might not fare any better.
"Junior Brother, what should we do next?" Hong Xiang asked.
Hearing Bu Keng's words, she also felt that the Iron Blood Demon Spider was somewhat troublesome.
Even with Xuan Hong from the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm, it wasn't guaranteed to be under control.
Moreover, the Feng Family and Medicine King Valley would definitely not just watch as Xu Nian and others took away the Spiritual Medicine from the Ancient Medicine Field.
"No rush, let's observe and see how things change. We'll go over and take a look first, if we can succeed, good; if not, it doesn't matter," Xu Nian said.
Hong Xiang nodded.
Xuan Hong naturally had no objections.
As for Bu Keng, being a guide, he naturally dared not have any objections.
And even if he had objections, Xu Nian and the others wouldn't care.
"Whoosh!"
Thus, Xu Nian and the others approached the gorge.
Their figures were exceedingly light, and with Xuan Hong's help, all their auras were concealed.
So, as long as they did not appear voluntarily, they would not be easily discovered by the opponent.
When Xu Nian and the others arrived under a large tree,
He saw that there indeed were patrolling sentinels around the perimeter of the gorge.
These sentinels were all of high Cultivation, and had already reached the Zifu Realm.
If there was any disturbance, they could instantly transmit the information out.
Allowing those inside to be fully prepared.
Xu Nian naturally did not pay them any heed.
His figure lurked in the shadows.
His gaze also turned towards the entrance.
At that moment, three figures stood at the entrance.
These were three men.
Two middle-aged men and one young man who looked to be in his twenties.
Unsurprisingly, those two middle-aged men were likely the Feng Family Patriarch and the Medicine King Valley Master that Bu Keng had mentioned.
As for that young man, he followed behind one of the Feng Family Patriarch.
He was probably the son of the Feng Family Patriarch.
Because Xu Nian noticed that despite being young, the young man's Cultivation was not low.
His expression was extremely arrogant.
Clearly, he was a talented individual who was proud of his own abilities.
Right now, the three of them seemed to be discussing something, occasionally looking into the gorge.
But Xu Nian couldn't discern what they were discussing.
After all, if Xu Nian's Spiritual Sense Cultivation were to probe, it would be discovered.
"Senior Wentian, can you help me hear what they are discussing?" Xu Nian immediately sought help from Wentian Demon Sovereign.
The involvement of Wentian Demon Sovereign's Soul level shouldn't be a problem.
"Kid, this is just a trivial matter," the voice of Wentian Demon Sovereign immediately sounded.
Subsequently, Xu Nian felt a strong wave of soul fluctuation emanate.
Then, the conversation of the three people in front of him came clearly into his ears.
And the content of their conversation suddenly made Xu Nian's eyes light up!
