Ye Jingcheng finds himself trapped in an array by Zhang Zhiqiu, while Prince Wang and Mansion Master Xiao are blocked from reaching him. They negotiate with Zhang Zhiqiu, eventually offering him treasures to distract him. Ye Jingcheng escapes using an array-breaking talisman, and Prince Wang and Mansion Master Xiao follow him, thanking him for his help. Zhang Zhiqiu, enraged, pursues Master Rakshasa and Yin Wu Master.

The swirling Five-Colored Profound Light fell above the jungle, occasionally turning into a Spiritual Rain, nurturing the entire land.

There is no doubt that the Upper Immortal Realm of the Earth Immortal Realm has more Spiritual Energy, and richer Spirit Medicine.

At this moment, within a valley, hundreds of flowers were blooming, Spirit Fragrance filled the air, and countless Spirit Bees and Spirit Medicines were present. It was a Tier Five Spirit Medicine Valley.

In front of the valley entrance, seven or eight cultivators arrived at this moment, seeing the scene before them, all of them showed joyful expressions.

"Master, these Spirit Bees are Thousand Shadow Bees, the Spiritual Honey they collect must be above Tier Four Spiritual Honey, and there are so many Spirit Flowers. This time is absolutely an opportunity for our Taiyi Sect to prosper." A newly promoted True Master from Purple Peak couldn’t help but say.

Beside him, the veteran True Masters, such as Master Xuan Dao and True Master San Yuan, appeared somewhat calm.

They had long known that the Earth Immortal Realm was full of treasures, and Sikong Ziming had brought them straight to this Spirit Mountain, missing out on countless opportunities along the way.

Of course, where there are great opportunities, and this is still within the Upper Immortal Realm.

True Master San Yuan’s gaze also intermittently fell on Sikong Zitian.

Previously, he hadn’t noticed, but after entering the Earth Immortal Realm, he found that Sikong Zitian’s speed of absorbing Spiritual Energy and his vigorous True Essence seemed to be much stronger than his own.

He knows that he himself is a Sword Cultivator, cultivating the Lifebound Sword Embryo.

His True Essence should be more vigorous.

Therefore, he also had a bold guess in his heart, Sikong Zitian might have already broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm at some point unknown to him.

"There is even a three-thousand-year-old Red Cloud Ginseng in this Spirit Medicine Valley!" Sikong Zitian naturally didn’t care about the opinions of other True Masters, at this moment he took over the reddish-golden ginseng, gently caressing it, carefully inputting Spiritual Light into each of its roots.

His eyes were full of joy.

This kind of Red Cloud Ginseng already belonged to the Tier Five category, and when refined into a Spirit Pill, even if ingested by a Nascent Soul cultivator, it would be greatly beneficial.

Plus the other Spirit Medicines obtained by Sikong Ziming, when they leave the Earth Immortal Realm, the chances of breaking through to the Middle Stage of Nascent Soul would definitely not be small.

"Indeed, not bad!" Sikong Ziming was also extremely satisfied.

But while looking at these Spirit Medicines, he seemed a bit absent-minded.

He came to the Earth Immortal Realm, not just for these Spirit Medicines.

But the closer he got to the location of the treasure, the more apprehensive he felt in his heart.

On his Taiyi Purple Peak, the cultivation technique carries a bit of Qi Fortune Calculation.

This uneasy mindset also made him squint his eyes and examine the surrounding valley.

Of course, on the surface, he was checking the valley, but actually, he was observing these True Masters from the Taiyi Sect.

Although he knew these True Masters well, his wife had been recruiting them over the years, and he was also somewhat worried about the Qinghe Sect and the Tian Dao Sect rising up.

Before this, he had already leaked the location of the Tian Dao Sect’s Tian Dao True Monarch.

But similarly, it was very likely that the other party also leaked his own location.

After all, the Cultivation Realm never lacks those mysterious and extraordinary Secret Techniques.

"The speed of searching for treasures is too slow like this. Junior Brother Zitian, you take them to search for Secret Realms, I will search for Secret Realms alone, this way the harvest will be greater, after all, the best time for treasure hunting is just the first few months!" After hesitating for a while, Sikong Ziming finally spoke.

Of course, when speaking, he also secretly used Transmission.

Sikong Zitian cultivated a rather powerful cultivation technique, and if he created a Golden Core Avatar, the other Golden Core True Masters would not notice.

This way he could avoid risks.

As for the location of the treasure, he had other means, confidently believing he could obtain the treasure.

Seeing Sikong Ziming speak like this, Sikong Zitian also nodded.

In a short while, after collecting all the mature Spirit Medicines, they also set up an Array, then parted ways!

...

In another place in the Upper Immortal Realm of Earth Immortal Realm.

Two cultivators wearing black robes impatiently urged the two of them.

"Qinghe Daoist, Beihai Daoist, besides helping you deal with the two from Taiyi Sect, we also need to find Medicine King Valley. If you delay any longer, spoiling the major matter, don’t blame me for leaving, making all previous agreements null!" A hoarse voice sounded.

Outside his gaze, two figures walked out from the Secret Realm.

As they walked out, they didn’t forget to pass a bulging Storage Bag to each of the black-robed cultivators.

"Rest assured, Celestial Corpse Daoist, Qinghe has a sense of time. I’m not urgent because I’ve already discovered that Taiyi Sect secretly has one more Nascent Soul, and the other party boldly entered the Earth Immortal Realm despite the risk of the Sect falling into the hands of Fairy Linghong, surely their intentions are significant. If we slow down a bit, we might gain unexpected benefits!" True Monarch Qinghe said with a smile.

The Celestial Corpse True Monarch didn’t continue speaking.

But his eyes still showed signs of urging the two.

Seeing this, True Monarch Beihai and True Monarch Qinghe became even more certain about the background of the Celestial Corpse Sect.

Medicine King Valley may not be the heartache for Celestial Corpse Sect, but it is certainly a thorn in the side for Penglai Sect.

"Celestial Corpse Daoist, my brother’s words are true, moreover, if we follow too quickly, the other party might notice. Being able to endure for hundreds of years, hibernating while breaking through, such a person cannot be underestimated!" True Monarch Beihai added.

When Celestial Corpse True Monarch heard this, he finally reluctantly nodded, his eyes also showing some interest.

He also suspected that Taiyi Sect had treasures.

After all, the rumors about the Beast Desolate Wasteland have persisted for so many years, the treasures might have long fallen into the hands of Taiyi Sect.

...

In the Lower Immortal Realm, among the mountains.

A cyan rainbow descended, revealing the form of an elder.

The elder gazed at the distant glow, seeing the swirling changes.

His eyes couldn’t help but become more cautious.

This elder was Ye Jingcheng, who changed his appearance and consumed the Bone Transformation Pill.

He came here, following the route of the Celestial Sand Sect, searching for the Heaven-Repairing Garden.

According to the map description of the Celestial Sand Sect, at this moment he had only covered half the distance. Looking at the remaining route, he couldn’t help but sigh.

Apparently, the Heaven-Repairing Garden was located further inside the Upper Immortal Realm, and the position was undoubtedly not too outward.

Ye Jingcheng naturally felt apprehensive about this.

In the Lower Immortal Realm, he could still attempt using Peach Wood.

In the Upper Immortal Realm, he had much more to be wary of.

There, there were too many Nascent Soul cultivators, and a slight revelation of treasure would surely attract them.

Although he had the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor, after all, the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor was only at the Early Stage of Nascent Soul, and there might be many cultivators at the Middle Stage or even Late Stage of Nascent Soul among treasure seekers.

In the past, the downfall of the Celestial Sand Sect was also due to searching for the Heaven-Repairing Garden, and the plethora of Nascent Souls that didn’t return, leading to their decline. Ye Jingcheng naturally had to be more cautious.

Of course, besides being worried, he was also investigating whether Zhang Zhiqiu had followed.

He took out a Jade Talisman, which displayed an image of the Shadow Wood Puppet.

Through the observation of the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor, he had already discovered that he had been marked with a Spiritual Record similar to the Blood-Tracking Spirit Seal.

This Spiritual Record would roughly last for about three days.

Now, two days had already passed, and soon it would be the time when Zhang Zhiqiu would catch up.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng also prepared to find a Tier Five Secret Realm.

In a Tier Four Secret Realm, the opponent would only guard the entrance, but in a Tier Five Secret Realm, they would definitely enter.

At that time, even if Zhang Zhiqiu had many avatars, he couldn’t cross through the Secret Realm to escape.

All he needed was to have the cultivators follow the example of Mansion Master Wang, guarding the entrance of the Secret Realm.

The only worry was whether his numerous trump cards could kill Zhang Zhiqiu.

Although he had ways to avoid, being targeted by a ruthless Nascent Soul cultivator, if not solved in time, would cause greater trouble in the future.

Ye Jingcheng also took out a Void Spirit Insect, and following its guidance.

Within half a day, Ye Jingcheng arrived at a Secret Realm.

This Secret Realm was located atop a cliff, and its intensity was Tier Five.

However, upon entering, this Secret Realm had already been searched four to five times, and there wasn’t a single Spirit Object above Tier Three left.

Ye Jingcheng wasn’t surprised, after all, the Earth Immortal Realm had been open for so many years, common Secret Realms had long been discovered, and their inheritance taken, leaving only some Spirit Medicine, which would be collected every three hundred years.

Some would even go out of their way to plant some seedlings.

Ye Jingcheng also placed a Grotto Heaven at the entrance of the Secret Realm, while the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor was placed in the Spirit Beast Bag, carried close to him.

After completing all this, he hid underground, waiting quietly.
