Chapter 55: Treasure Land

Chapter 55: Treasure Land Senior brother, it should be in this area, said Qin Xiaoyue as they rode on the flying boat. Li Su looked ahead. It was situated in the northern part of the Wu Kingdom, surrounded by continuous mountains. Further within one or two thousand miles lay the territory of the North Yan Kingdom. These three secular countries covered an exceptionally vast area, and around them lay some dangerous uninhabited regions where low-level monsters occasionally emerged.v3l.Bin. The monsters were mostly concentrated in the Mangkang Mountain area. The absence of disturbances by these creatures among ordinary people was due to the efforts of the three major immortal sects and cultivators who actively hunted them down. Li Su couldnt see any obvious signs of a hidden secret place, and the spiritual energy in the area was not particularly strong. It must have been well concealed and undiscovered if there was a secret place. Senior brother, its not time to enter yet. Well have to wait a few days. In the meantime, Ill teach you the spell to open the entrance, Qin Xiaoyue said. Okay, Li Su replied. Shortly after, Qin Xiaoyue imparted the spell to Li Su. The spell wasnt too complex, but it would have been difficult to figure out on his own without guidance. Once learned, Li Su sat down and waited patiently. Qin Xiaoyue, who appeared more mature than Su Yun, also sat down, exuding an alluring charm. They both waited silently on the flying boat for quite some time until Qin Xiaoyue finally stood up and announced that the time had come for them to enter. It was a night with a full moon, and the moon appeared unusually large and round, with a faint red glowa rare red moon that occurred only once every hundred years. This red moon would greatly benefit the monsters, as it often facilitated breakthroughs for those stuck at bottlenecks in their cultivation. As a result, a large number of monsters would likely become more active during this time. In some areas with numerous creatures, there might even be a surge of beasts attacking human gathering places. Li Su continuously took action, slaying these monsters one after another. Finally, the surrounding area was devoid of monsters. Li Su looked inside and noticed a crimson moon shining in the distance, likely a reflection of the red moon outside. Below was lush vegetation, and the aura was abundant, but there were numerous creatures that seemed to be monsters. This place is like a den of monsters. Spiritual herbs! Li Sus keen perception spotted several mature spiritual herbs. Junior Sister, this way, Li Su called out as he flew towards the spot. With the Flying Immortal Sword at his disposal, he swiftly dealt with a hidden third-order monster lurking nearby. Qin Xiaoyues expression changed upon realizing that a Golden Core stage monster guarded the spiritual grass. Li Sus expression remained composed as he unleashed a series of attacks with the Flying Immortal Sword, quickly slaying the third-order monster. It wasnt much of a challenge for someone at the fifth level of the Golden Core. Brother, you should keep these spiritual herbs. Well divide them later when we get out, Qin Xiaoyue suggested. Okay, Li Su agreed, collecting the surrounding spiritual herbs and extracting the valuable inner alchemy from the monster, which could be useful for alchemy and held high value. Li Su continued to search with his spiritual sense while advancing, fusing with his thousand-year cultivation. Soon, he found more spiritual herbs and elixirs, a considerable number of them. However, many of the older and rarer herbs were guarded by monsters. These creatures seemed to wait for the herbs to mature fully before eating them. These powerful monsters possessed a significant level of intelligence.
