Chapter 1317: Land of Evil Spirits
Peerless Medicine God · 第1317章 恶灵之地
"Hmm, hard work pays off. I've finally recovered!"
Ye Yuan didn't hide anything and admitted it directly.
Such a thing couldn't be concealed anyway; it was obvious at a glance.
But to Su Linpu, these words were like a thunderbolt, too shocking.
He was also a one-star Divine Pill Master and fully understood how difficult a one-star Heavenly Pattern Pill was.
For a one-star Divine Pill Master, this was almost an impossible task.
He grabbed Ye Yuan and lowered his voice: "You... did you really refine a one-star Heavenly Pattern Pill?"
Refining a one-star Heavenly Pattern Pill was a bombshell, even more explosive than the news of the divine-grade antidote pill.
More importantly, the recipe for a one-star Heavenly Pattern Pill wasn't something just anyone could know.
That Ye Yuan could refine it showed that his background was definitely not simple!
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Didn't you see? Without a one-star Heavenly Pattern Pill, I couldn't have repaired my Divine Sea."
"Hiss..."
Su Linpu gasped, looking at Ye Yuan as if he'd seen a ghost: "You brat, you're truly a monster! But you came out just in time; if you'd been any later, I really couldn't hold on!"
Ye Yuan looked puzzled: "What do you mean by that?"
Su Linpu said, "You don't know how popular the pills you refined are in Guishan City..."
Su Linpu briefly explained the situation over the past few years, and Ye Yuan was slightly surprised.
He hadn't expected the pills he refined to be so sought after.
Ye Yuan didn't refuse and said directly, "In that case, I'll find time to refine a batch of pills. I can't guarantee high-grade divine pills, but ordinary low-grade divine pills should be no problem."
Su Linpu was overjoyed: "Hey, I knew you wouldn't refuse! Then I'll leave this matter to you!"
Ye Yuan felt he owed the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion a favor. After all, without their continuous supply of spiritual herbs, he couldn't have refined a one-star Heavenly Pattern Pill in less than ten years.
But in fact, the profits Ye Yuan brought to the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion were far more than just the pills he left behind.
Over the past ten years, the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion had been immensely prosperous, suppressing the other three houses so much that they couldn't lift their heads.
Ye Yuan had an absolute contribution to this.
Ye Yuan nodded: "There are quite a few ready-made divine pills in the cultivation room; you can send someone to collect them. I've taken all the divine-grade divine pills; if you need them, I can help refine them. Also, make a list and send the spiritual herbs to the cultivation room. I'll go see Miss Wanru first."
Su Linpu quickly said, "That's only right! Over the years, Miss Wanru has missed you dearly!"
Ye Yuan smiled, then suddenly asked, "Shopkeeper Su, is there a land of evil spirits near Guishan City?"
Su Linpu's expression changed: "What do you want with a land of evil spirits? That's no good place!"
Wuchen had told Ye Yuan that outside the cities of the Tongtian Realm, there were various lands of evil spirits.
So-called lands of evil spirits were dangerous places where martial artists who died unnaturally had their souls transform into undead spirits, gathering in yin-infested areas.
The evil spirits in these lands fought and devoured each other to grow stronger; those that survived were mostly powerful.
Ordinary martial artists, fighting alone, were no match for evil spirits.
Moreover, the souls of martial artists were excellent nourishment for those evil spirits.
Once they detected a martial artist entering their land, they would launch a frenzied attack until they devoured the martial artist's soul.
However, the lands of evil spirits also give birth to some yin-attributed heavenly treasures and earthly treasures, each of which is invaluable, so many martial artists risk entering them in search of treasures.
Those with good luck can indeed make a huge fortune, even sustaining their cultivation for decades or centuries.
So when Su Linpu heard that Ye Yuan wanted to find a land of evil spirits, his face changed color on the spot.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "I need to refine a certain pill that requires Night Silk Grass, so I want to visit a land of evil spirits."
Ye Yuan naturally would not reveal the matter of possessing a Celestial Lord spiritual treasure like the Soul-Calming Pearl, so he fabricated a reason.
His visit to the land of evil spirits was not really for refining any pill, but to find nourishment for Wuchen.
The evil spirits in the land of evil spirits were the best nourishment for Wuchen.
Now, with only three months left until the ten-year deadline, Ye Yuan could no longer afford to delay.
If he didn't find nourishment for Wuchen soon, Mu Lingxue would not hold on.
So no matter what, he had to make this trip to the land of evil spirits.
Upon hearing this, Su Linpu found it hard to dissuade him; the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion really did not have Night Silk Grass!
The heavenly treasures and earthly treasures from the land of evil spirits were hard to obtain in the outside world.
Every time they appeared, they were snapped up, and the prices were extremely high.
Because of this, those martial artists risked their lives to enter the land of evil spirits, hoping to find some heavenly treasures and earthly treasures.
"Well... a million li northeast of Guishan City, there is a place called the Yin Wind Cave, which is the largest land of evil spirits near Guishan City. But the danger there is also much greater than in other places. However, other lands of evil spirits probably don't have Night Silk Grass," Su Linpu said.
Ye Yuan became interested upon hearing this; too ordinary evil spirits would not be of much use to Wuchen.
Wuchen had told him that to find a useful land of evil spirits, he needed spiritual herbs of the grade of Night Silk Grass.
Hence, Ye Yuan had said that.
Unexpectedly, there really was such a place!
"Manager Su, could you tell me more about this Yin Wind Cave?" Ye Yuan said.
Su Linpu nodded and said, "Of course! The Yin Wind Cave is the largest land of evil spirits in the Guishan City region. Many powerful martial artists from Guishan City stay there year-round. It is rich in some yin-attributed spiritual herbs, which are very popular among martial artists. However, the danger there is also obvious to all; no fewer than a hundred Divine Path experts die in the Yin Wind Cave every year! It is said that deep in the Yin Wind Cave, there are two-star evil spirits, whose strength rivals human Heaven-Surveying Divine Realm experts! Once encountered, ordinary people are sure to die!"
Ye Yuan was also shocked upon hearing this!
The Cave Abyss Divine Realm is divided into early, middle, late, and great perfection stages.
The gap in strength between each minor realm is enormous.
A martial artist at the middle stage of Cave Abyss can easily crush one at the early stage!
Ye Yuan had just recovered his strength and was only at the early stage of Cave Abyss Divine Realm.
As for two-star evil spirits, they were even more powerful than ordinary Heaven-Surveying Divine Realm experts.
Once encountering a two-star evil spirit, death was certain.
Wuchen said that the Tongtian Realm was different from the Xianlin World.
In the Xianlin World, he could easily devour the Death Soul Tree.
But here, he could at most handle evil spirits at the late one-star stage.
If he encountered a one-star great perfection evil spirit, he would have to steer clear.
As for two-star evil spirits, even he had no way to deal with them.
Ye Yuan hadn't expected that this trip would be fraught with danger!
Su Linpu glanced at Ye Yuan and said, "If you insist on going, you'd better take Luo Jian with you."
