Chapter 937 Mysterious Dew Celestial Grass

"Could this be the Soul Clan's herb garden?"

Such a thought popped into Qin Ming's mind. He looked at the vibrant and lush scene before him and showed a look of surprise.

At first glance, the scale and level of this medicine garden are even higher than those in his current Lesser Spirit Realm.

Some rare and exotic plants, uncommon in the outside world, have grown here for hundreds of thousands of years and are still lush and upright. There are even quite a few spiritual plants of the seventh rank or above.

This made Qin Ming extremely envious, and the Devouring Rat's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Spiritual plants of the seventh rank and above are of great use to those in the Integration Stage of cultivation. Whether it is alchemy, talisman making, or weapon crafting, they can always be of use.

Furthermore, for spiritual plants to grow to this extent, they not only require harsh environmental conditions, but also take tens of thousands of years to become medicinal. They are truly born from the very essence of nature and are something that can only be encountered by chance.

The fact that the Soul Clan's medicine garden is currently well-preserved indicates that it has never been attacked by the outside world.

If Qin Ming weren't currently being held back, he would have already moved this entire herb garden to his own little spirit world.

'However, this Well of Souls, as described by the Succubus Star, is quite different. Could it be hidden within this herb garden?'

After entering this place, the Succubus Star used her divine sense to explore inside, seemingly showing little interest in the rare and exotic plants before her.

After all, once one's cultivation reaches a certain level, apart from advancing to the Mahayana stage and proving the Dao of the Demon Ancestor, very few things can catch her eye.

However, she furrowed her charming brows slightly and said with a hint of surprise, "How strange, why is the suppression of divine sense here so strong?"

Upon hearing her words, Qin Ming immediately released his divine sense to explore the surroundings, only to be surprised to find that his divine sense was suppressed to a range of just over ten feet.

Given the immense power of his divine sense, now reaching the level of complete crystallization, the fact that he couldn't see very far from here indicates that this place is quite strange.

This situation was beyond Succubus Star's expectations, indicating that she was not entirely familiar with this area of ​​the Soul Clan.

Even more strangely, two paths appeared before them, each leading deeper into the herb garden.

Followed by.

What Succubus said next gave Qin Ming a jolt!
A thoughtful look appeared on the succubus's captivating face, and then she said to Qin Ming:

"Go to the other side. The spiritual herbs and trees in those herb gardens are your good fortune. You can pick them and take them with you. I don't need these things."

"This is also a high-level communication talisman with my own special characteristics. Even if my divine sense is suppressed, I can still make contact within a range of ten thousand miles."

After handing the communication talisman to Qin Ming, the succubus star didn't wait for him to explain and immediately formed a mysterious hand seal.

A burst of crimson demonic light erupted from the void and instantly entered Qin Ming's body.

Qin Ming knew that this powerful demon was afraid he would escape, so he had tampered with his body.

However, with Qingyang the Old Demon by his side, he wasn't too worried.

So the two of them split up and went to explore the inner part of the herb garden.

The 'Well of Souls' that the succubus mentioned is most likely located in this Soul Clan's herb garden. As for its purpose, she didn't reveal much to Qin Ming.

After the two parted, Qin Ming looked at the herb garden and took a deep breath.

Succubus Star may not know that he possesses a blessed land called Minor Spirit Realm, which is a world unto itself, and he can transplant all the spiritual herbs from this place to that immortal's abandoned field.

She figured that it wouldn't matter if she let Qin Ming pick the rare and exotic plants in the herb garden.

In any case, Qin Ming will eventually be controlled by her and won't be able to escape. Even the spoils here will eventually belong to her.

Qin Ming roused himself and, after confirming that there was no danger around, led the Devouring Sky Rat and the Silver Winged Frost Bee deeper into the Soul Clan's medicinal garden.

The Devouring Rat, originally under the tyranny of the Succubus Star, clung to Qin Ming's leg and hid behind him.

He breathed a long sigh of relief after seeing the other person leave.

"Master, we never expected that this witch was the real mastermind behind everything. What should we do next?"

"So she had her eye on us back when she was in that celestial city of Hanguang Cave. She had ulterior motives!"

Qin Ming then transmitted his thoughts to it, saying, "Don't worry about it. I have my own way of dealing with this. This herb garden has great potential. Let's make some money off it first."

Upon hearing this, the Devouring Rat's worry turned to joy, and it exclaimed excitedly, "That's wonderful!"

“Master, I’ll go find the treasure for you right away. Leave it to me.”

After saying that, it patted its chest.

The master and servant followed that road and began to plunder the herb garden.

The Devouring Rat revealed its true form, transforming into a gray-furred spirit rat, and began searching the vicinity with its nose twitching.

Although Qin Ming's divine sense was limited, the Devouring Sky Rat's sense of smell was not affected at all. Before long, it found many high-level spiritual herbs and plants in the spiritual herb garden, all of which it put into its small spiritual realm.

The little silver fox and Tian Ling'er were also busy inside, planting all the spiritual herbs that Qin Ming had thrown in into that immortal's abandoned field.

Qin Ming followed the path through the herb garden for about an hour when the extremely excited voice of the Devouring Sky Rat echoed in his mind:

"Master, come quick! I think I've found an incredible treasure!!"

After receiving the telepathic message from the Devouring Sky Rat, Qin Ming rushed towards its location.

This was the first time he had ever felt that having a treasure-hunting spirit pet like the Sky-Devouring Rat was more useful than having it as a warhorse.

Not long after.

Following the location provided by the Devouring Sky Rat, Qin Ming arrived near a pond in the herb garden. The environment here was serene and extremely quiet, with some green willows growing around it, and a stone mountain behind the pond.

When he arrived, the Sky-Eating Rat was shading his eyes with his hand, squatting on a rock, watching the center of the pond from afar.

"Master, look!" Upon seeing Qin Ming arrive, the Devouring Rat excitedly pointed to the pond, which was several tens of feet in diameter.

Qin Ming stared intently into the pond and saw a small spiritual herb growing there, about an inch in size. It had three emerald green leaves with veins that resembled mysterious Dao patterns, emanating a peculiar Dao essence.

Even more astonishingly, on those three leaves, three crystal-clear, teardrop-like dewdrops condensed.

The entire herb was enveloped in layers of seven-colored light, exuding a sacred and ethereal aura. A captivating fragrance, refreshing and intoxicating, wafted into the air with the gentle breeze.
The mere sight of such extraordinary celestial phenomena was enough to tell that this spiritual herb was absolutely extraordinary. Qin Ming's mind flashed rapidly through memories of numerous spiritual plant inheritances, but the name of the spiritual plant before him was the only one that stood out.

So he asked the old demon Qingyang, "Old ghost, you are knowledgeable and experienced, do you recognize this immortal herb?"

The Old Demon Qingyang observed for a while, stroked his beard, and pondered for a long time before his cloudy eyes suddenly lit up, and he said:

"Could this be the legendary seventh-grade mid-level spiritual plant, 'Mysterious Dew Celestial Grass'?"

"Hehehe! Young friend Qin has struck it lucky!"

"Although I don't know its specific uses, I have heard of it. It seems that for your human race, this spiritual herb is an extremely rare item with considerable uses!"

Qin Ming nodded upon hearing this. Since it was something that could only be found by chance, he decided to take it first.

Upon hearing Qingyang Old Demon's words, he revealed a strange expression and asked again, "What do you mean by 'your human race'? Could it be that you, Old Ghost, are not a human cultivator?"

Qingyang the Old Demon seemed to realize he had let something slip, so he quickly coughed lightly and pretended not to know anything.

Seeing this, Qin Ming didn't press him further since he didn't want to talk about it.

After all, the old demon Qingyang had followed him for so many years, and not only had he never harmed him, but he had also helped him a lot.

Especially back in the mortal realm at Yuanji Mountain, the spirit of Qingyang the Old Demon sacrificing himself for righteousness and the self-destruction of Qihun Saint Ancestor was truly admirable!
Upon hearing that it was a seventh-tier treasure that even cultivators at the Integration stage would covet, the Devouring Rat couldn't wait to go and collect the dew-covered grass from the pond.

"Wait a minute, something's not right."

Qin Ming frowned, sensing a hint of danger in his mind.

There might be some hidden danger around these extraordinary spiritual plants, so he quickly called out to the Devouring Rat.

However, it seems we were still a step too late.

With a soft 'plop', just as the Devouring Sky Rat's little hand was about to reach the seventh-grade mid-level 'Mysterious Dew Sky-Piercing Grass'...

Suddenly, a long, thin object shot out from the once calm water and swept towards the Devouring Rat with an extremely strange speed.

Qin Ming's expression also hardened. With his divine sense restricted, he could only detect a barely perceptible trajectory.

Historically, rare and precious herbs are always surrounded by guardians. It seems that the Soul Clan's herb garden has undergone some changes over the past hundreds of thousands of years.

Startled, the Devouring Rat let out a strange cry and immediately transformed into a streak of gray light, attempting to retreat.

"Good heavens, how dare you ambush me!"

"You cowardly coward! Watch how I handle you!"

But before it could finish speaking, it felt one of its legs get tangled in something, and then its whole body sank as it was dragged downwards by a tremendous force.

No matter how hard it tried, it couldn't break free.

In desperation, the Devouring Rat couldn't hold back any longer and hurriedly shouted at Qin Ming on the shore, "Master, help!"

After sensing the danger, Qin Ming transformed into a streak of azure light and disappeared, shooting towards the pond.

As he approached, he saw clearly what was hidden at the bottom of the pond: a huge gray toad!

Its cultivation aura was terrifyingly powerful, reaching the seventh level, so its sneak attack caught the Devouring Rat off guard.

What surprised Qin Ming even more was that this gray toad was also a soul beast, but it had countless tentacles growing from its back, which made one's scalp tingle.

Seeing his spirit pet, the Devouring Sky Rat, in danger, Qin Ming immediately showed no mercy and summoned the seventh-order Primordial Poison Flame.

The moment the Primordial Poison Flame appeared, it instantly transformed into a magnificent golden crow, swooping down upon the pond!
Not only that, Qin Ming's brow twitched, and he directly summoned the Crystal Sword, which transformed into a small, silvery sword and slashed down at the long tongue that was wrapped around the Devouring Rat!

With the support of two super supernatural powers, the strange gray toad seemed to have never expected that a mere human in the Void Refinement Realm could unleash such a supernatural technique that transcended realms.

The terrifying tentacles that had been entangling the Devouring Rat seemed to have encountered their nemesis, and they retreated with a series of shrill screams.

The long tongue was sliced ​​in two by Qin Ming's Crystal Sword with a soft "plop," breaking off in the middle.

The eerie gray toad, in pain, let out a furious howl and burst completely out of the pond, transforming into a blur as it lunged menacingly at Qin Ming!
Qin Ming's expression hardened slightly, but he calmly scooped up the Devouring Sky Rat and realized that his natal spirit fire had a remarkable effect on this seventh-tier ferocious creature.

He immediately had an idea and contacted Jin Ling.

Then he commanded the Primordial Poison Flame to transform into a giant net of flames, which enveloped the gray toad.

With a sizzling sound, the gray toad's body was scorched by the net of flames, emitting plumes of black smoke as it struggled violently in resistance.

Qin Ming's brow furrowed again, and he immediately activated the Crystal Sword, severing the strange tentacles on the gray toad's body in one fell swoop.

Once these eerie tentacles were severed, the gray toad seemed to lose its primal power. Its entire body, several tens of meters in size, plummeted from the sky with a loud 'boom,' crashing heavily to the ground and instantly becoming still.
The Devouring Rat was still shaken. It hadn't expected that such a ferocious seventh-tier beast would lurk beneath this beautiful medicinal garden, almost costing it its life.
However, seeing Qin Ming deal with the ferocious creature in no time, it felt a great sense of relief: "You dare scare me? Let's see if you can still jump around like that!!"

Followed by.

Under the watchful eyes of the master and servant, the gray toad in the fire net turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared, leaving only a huge seventh-order soul bead on the ground, as well as several gray tentacles that had been severed off.

These tentacles seemed to be so intact that even his Primordial Poison Flame couldn't burn them away, leaving them completely unharmed, which puzzled Qin Ming greatly.
Subsequently.

The Primordial Poison Flame transformed back into the form of the Golden Spirit Maiden, gathered up everything on the ground, and handed it to Qin Ming.

That soul bead was extremely rare; even the Yanfu Immortal Vine, the natal spiritual plant in the Desolate Realm, sent him an intense longing.

Those gray tentacles were extremely cold to the touch, and Qin Ming sensed an extremely powerful aura within them.

The toad under the pond was probably not at the seventh level of cultivation originally; it was mostly due to the influence of the tentacles.

The old demon Qingyang examined it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. He simply warned, "Young friend Qin, I'm afraid some kind of upheaval has occurred in this Soul Clan's medicine garden. You'd better be careful from now on."

Qin Ming nodded slightly, just as he was about to seal the gray tentacles into the jade box for later research.

But then they saw those tentacles disintegrate and shatter on their own, leaving only a few fragments and dust.

With a thought, Qin Ming quickly put the fragments into his hand and observed them with his divine sense. He discovered that these gray fragments were filled with the power of some kind of Great Dao Law!

However, it is full of negative and dark attributes!
