Chapter 447 - Herb King Valley, Bulletin Board!
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
After arriving on Fifth Heaven, it was a comfortable and familiar ride. Within only a few moments, they opened the array formation and entered the Ethereal Summit.
Due to preparation for the Dragon God Shrine’s general exam, Hao Ren had not visited this place for a while. Coming back here at this time made him a little nostalgic.
The valley was dark, and there were no birds and beasts; it seemed even quieter.
Little White was Hao Ren’s spirit beast, but it was a demon beast after all. On Fifth Heaven, there were almost no demon beasts. How could ordinary creatures dare to trespass the territory of demon beasts? Even the bugs didn’t dare to approach this land that had a demon beast’s scent!
Hao Ren landed in the valley. Under the cover of the night, he carefully observed the situation in Ethereal Summit.
The spiritual herbs planted in the valley in the middle of the valley were lush and growing better than before. Xie Yujia used some barriers to divide the land piece by piece like potted plants, which had better effects.
In the long warm shed, the spirit flowers that Hao Ren couldn’t name had already produced fruit, and they were hanging on the branches.
The river from the summit slowly irrigated a small piece of paddy field. Inside, the daffodil-like spirit herbs had bright green roots.
Xie Yujia was good at housekeeping and able to organize all things. Even these spirit herbs that she wasn’t experienced at planting were being well taken care of as well.
Hao Ren deeply admired Xie Yujia.
“Black Exotic Vine, Soul Spice, Venetian Flower, Silver Waist Grass, Water Phoenix Lily…” Looking at the spirit herbs, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were surprised.
“So many!”
Girls who didn’t know how to grow plants like beautiful flowers as well, and most of the spirit herbs were delicate, fragrant, and beautiful.
“It’s all done by Yujia alone,” Hao Ren said.
“Big Zhumu is so skillful!” The Lu sisters praised heartfeltly.
“It’s nothing…” Xie Yujia blushed. This nickname, Big Zhumu, seemed very strange to her.
In fact, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili had seen super gardens that stretched far beyond the horizon and planted tens of thousands of spiritual herbs. However, this place belonged to Hao Ren, and it meant something completely different.
“If you have any free time, you can help Yujia take care of them,” Hao Ren said.
“Since Gongzi asked us to help, then we’ll certainly do our best!” Lu Linlin said playfully and then turned to look at the valley. “But there isn’t a cave for my sister and me.”
“Well, let’s open one up for you.”
Hundreds of sword energies appeared and surrounded Hao Ren. He flew toward one side of the mountain, and Hao Ren immediately carved a big cave. His realm had improved compared to the past. In addition, he had experience in creating a cave abode, so making one for the Lu sisters was a breeze.
In the blink of an eye, a brand-new cave abode appeared before the Lu sisters.
Little White jumped up and looked at Hao Ren with yearning in its eyes.
Hao Ren didn’t bother.
“After a little rest, we’ll head to Sixth Heaven,” he said.
“Woo…” Little White bit on Hao Ren’s trousers and rolled around wildly.
“Little White also wants a cave,” Zhao Yanzi said.
“Ruff! Ruff!”
Little White hugged Hao Ren’s ankle with its front legs, and its eyes were full of pleading.
“Okay, I’ll make you one.”
Hao Ren released more than a dozen sword energies helplessly. He drilled a ‘dog house’ beside his own cave and then carved a path along the mountain wall outside, so Little White could directly run to Hao Ren’s cave.
Little White flew to its own exclusive cave in excitement.
Bam!
It was stuck at the entrance of the cave abode with half of its butt exposed to the outside.
It kicked its back legs, and it was no use.
Boo! It turned into its puppy form and finally got into its cave.
“Zhen Congming, Zhen Congming, help me take a look!” Zhao Yanzi suddenly remembered the items she had plundered before and called at Zhen Congming.
Zhen Congming stepped on his black flight dharma treasure and casually flew toward Zhao Yanzi’s cave abode with a haughty expression.
Soon, Zhen Congming’s voice came out of Zhao Yanzi’s cave.
“Trash! Trash! Trash! Trash…”
After half a minute, Zhao Yanzi walked out of her cave ashen-faced with a lot of stuff in his arms.
She worked so hard to plunder so many things from bad cultivators, but she didn’t expect all of them to be trash in Zhen Congming’s eyes: not a single item was good!
“Don’t throw them away. Since they’re hard-earned things, keep them!” Xie Yujia saw Zhao Yanzi throwing things out of her cave and shouted.
There were hundreds of items, and Zhao Yanzi’s cave was not big enough, to begin with; her cave abode was almost completely filled.
Zhao Yanzi thought that there were some excellent treasures among everything, but unexpectedly, Zhen Congming saw none of them useful. This severely affected her enthusiasm.
“Keep them!” Hao Ren agreed with Xie Yujia. He waved his arms, and dozens of sword energies pierced straight into the portion of the mountain that was next to Zhao Yanzi’s, forming a new cave.
Treasure Light Pavilion!
Hao Ren’s sword energy carved three large words above the cave.
Immediately after, dozens of sword energies swept in the interior of the cave.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of small square holes were formed on the walls.
Zhao Yanzi stepped on her Purple Green Treasure Sword and threw the items into this new cave.
Xie Yujia shook her head and looked at Hao Ren.
Hao Ren also smiled helplessly. He stepped onto two sword energies and flew up with Xie Yujia.
“I’m off to cultivate! I collected so many things, but they don’t worth anything!” Zhao Yanzi pouted and flew back to her own cave.
Those things were once piled up in her cave, so she had to clean again.
It never crossed her mind that some of the items were indeed for valuable to cultivators on Fifth Heaven. Zhen Congming only collected rare treasures, and that was why these items weren’t valuable in his eyes.
After entering this new cave, Xie Yujia bent over and started packing things. Lu Linlin and Lu Lili followed in and helped to sort things together as well
“This is Bruise-Dissolving Pill for healing wounds… This is a low-tier flying sword… This is a low-tier spirit stone…” The Lu sisters handed things to Xie Yujia while explaining what they were and their uses.
Xie Yujia took out labels and stuck them on accordingly before handing them to Hao Ren who placed them in different square holes on the walls.
Elixir pills, cultivation techniques, dharma treasures, spirit stones, and some miscellaneous things, such as tokens, maps, and jewelry were grouped accordingly.
Judging from these items, Zhao Yanzi’s plunder was very thorough. From storage bags to flying swords, even to basic jewelry and identity tokens; she took them all.
As long as Zhao Yanzi was the perpetrator, only shirts and pants would be left untouched.
Soon, all kinds of things were tagged with labels according to their types and got placed in different square holes.
Together, they looked quite dazzling.
“These items may not be useful for us, but they’re still very good for the small sects nearby,” Xie Yujia exhaled and said, “These days, the three small sects nearby often send spiritual herbs to the valley, and we don’t have anything to give them in return. I used to give Beauty Pills to the Qin Yin Sect, but we can gradually send these things out from now on.
“Indeed, you’re always the thoughtful one.” Hao Ren nodded, thinking that Xie Yujia’s idea was a good one.
He looked at the gentle Xie Yujia. Suddenly, he thought that Xie Yujia was not only a master housekeeper but also had great potential as a great wife.
When she saw Hao Ren stare at her, Xie Yujia couldn’t help but touched her own face and thought that she had something on her face.
However, her face was smooth like eggs; how would there be something on it?
“Let’s do it like this,” Hao Ren said, “Let’s put a bulletin board outside the valley. If there are any spiritual herbs that we need, then we can write them on it. The corresponding reward should also be written on it.”
Xie Yujia pondered for a few seconds and said, “This is a good method. After all, no one dares to siege the Ethereal Summit on Fifth Heaven.”
She had accompanied Grandma to Qin Yin Sect, and the cultivators there thought that Grandma, who had no nature essence fluctuation, was a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. The array formation around the Herb King Valley was indeed not something that Core Formation Realm cultivators could arrange. Therefore, cultivators on Fifth Heaven wouldn’t dare trespass the Ethereal Summit.
Recently, she was trying to create a type of Marrow-Washing Pill that could improve one’s body constitution, but she lacked a few key spiritual herbs. If they could be gathered, then she would be able to make the elixir.
As she thought about asking Hao Ren and Zhen Congming to look the missing herbs when they sneak into the Sky Mountain Sect, she suddenly swallowed her words.
Hao Ren was going to look for the rare technique of growing lotuses. Why should she give him more trouble? Hao Ren’s safety was more important than her own cultivation.
“It’s almost time; let’s go,” Hao Ren looked at the Lu sisters beside him and said.
“Okay!” The Lu sisters nodded energetically.
“Be careful,” Xie Yujia said in worry.
She knew a little about Sixth Heaven. The number of sects on Sixth Heaven was far less than that on Fifth Heaven, but there were far more Nascent Soul Realm cultivators.
The Sky Mountain Sect that Hao Ren was heading to had a few Nascent Soul Realm cultivators on guard, and Hao Ren was currently equivalent to between Nascent Soul Realm and Core Formation Realm, so it was still dangerous for him.
Especially for the big sects, there were array formations everywhere. It wouldn’t be easy for Hao Ren to retrieve a rare technique.
“Okay, don’t worry!” Hao Ren turned to squeeze Xie Yujia’s palm and then flew out of the cave.
“Zi, Congming, let’s go!”
Having cleaned up her own cave abode, Zhao Yanzi who was waiting to start moving immediately stepped on her Purple Green Treasure Sword and flew out of her cave.
Zhen Congming stepped on his black flight dharma treasure and appeared in the middle of the valley.
“Little White!” Hao Ren shouted again.
Bam!
Little White bumped onto the cave entrance and hurriedly shrunk its body size. It drilled out of its little cave, turned into its snow lion form, and rushed to Hao Ren’s side.
“Go!” Hao Ren sat down on Little White’s back and shouted.
He had a bad impression of the Sky Mountain Sect, not to mention the fact that the sects on Fifth Heaven obeyed the law of the Jungle, so Hao Ren didn’t feel guilty at all for stealing their rare techniques.
The White Sand Sect that had been dominating over other sects on Fifth Heaven was also the affiliated sect of the Sky Mountain Sect…
A few black flashes of light dashed out of the valley’s array formation.
Standing in front of the Treasure Light Pavilion, Xie Yujia looked up at the direction in which Hao Ren left. Then, she looked down at her palm that had just been squeezed by Hao Ren, and she gently clenched her fists in worry.
