Start from Panlong and kill through the heavens

Medicine King Valley is shrouded in a gray-green miasma, and the valley floor is filled with the stench of humus mixed with poisonous plants.

Dark purple vines climbed all over the rock face, their leaves secreting a sticky sap that stretched into a spiderweb-like silver thread in the mist.

The withered trees on both sides of the valley were twisted like rickets, with abscess-like nodules bulging under the bark from time to time, which would burst and splatter out foul-smelling yellowish-green sap.

A dark spring with a sulfurous smell seeps from between the rocks, and a colorful oil film floats on the surface, occasionally churning up a string of putrid bubbles.

Half-buried in the humus were animal bones, with scarlet mycelium emerging from the crevices, pulsating like veins with the rising and falling mist. In the shadows of the cliffs, serrated ferns grew in clusters, their leaves opening and closing with a hissing sound like metal rubbing together.

The Valley Heart Swamp churned with dark mud, its surface covered with fluorescent spores that exploded into bluish-purple sparks upon touching the rock walls.

The night wind howled like a sob as it passed through the cave, carrying fragments of bone and poisonous powder as it swirled through the valley. The moonlight, filtered by the miasma, turned a ghastly green, making the moss that had accumulated on the rock walls over thousands of years look like festering skin.

Rean, dressed in a black robe, appeared at the valley entrance with the Medicine Fairy in a red gauze dress. Like a pair of celestial lovers, they gracefully flew into the valley.

Both Li En and Yao Xianzi are at the peak of the Dou Zong level. When the two join forces, they can fight even a one-star Dou Zun.

The Medicine Fairy possesses a special ability: she can transfer her own strength to Rean, increasing Rean's strength several times over and giving him a clearer grasp of the rules of heaven and earth.

This is simply an amazing ability; even in the primordial universe, Rean rarely saw such an ability.

After entering the valley, under the guidance of the Medicine Fairy, Li En quickly picked several kinds of Grade 8 medicinal herbs. This was only the beginning of the valley; if he went deeper into the Medicine King Valley, who knew how many medicinal herbs he could pick.

However, there is another powerful force within Medicine King Valley, namely Medicine King Valley itself. Medicine King Valley is usually very low-key, and its headquarters is located deep within Medicine King Valley, so few people venture there.

However, the well-known Burning Flame Valley is one of the three valleys among the eleven top forces in Central Continent: one palace, one tower, two sects, three valleys, and four pavilions. It is said to have intricate connections with Medicine King Valley.

As Rean and his companion entered the depths of Medicine King Valley, they encountered a group of people dressed in black cloaks who claimed to be from Medicine King Valley.

"Then leave all the medicinal herbs you've picked behind and leave immediately. This is the territory of my Medicine King Valley." The leader of the black-robed men stared coldly at Li En and the Medicine Fairy, speaking in a chilling voice.

These four or five people from Medicine King Valley were all Dou Zong experts. Who would have thought that this little-known force would have so many powerful experts, with just a few of them being Dou Zong?

"Legend has it that there are powerful warriors in this Medicine King Valley," the Medicine Fairy whispered in Li En's ear.

A Dou Sheng is definitely the strongest person standing at the very top of the entire Dou Qi Continent. Even in the original universe, they would be considered a top-tier universe overlord. Rean can't afford to offend them now.

However, this doesn't mean he's afraid of the people from Medicine King Valley. He has countless trump cards up his sleeve, so—

"Get lost!" With a cold shout, Li En unleashed the terrifying strength of a peak Dou Zong, and the terrifying aura made the five Dou Zong experts change their expressions drastically.

In the end, the five people looked at each other and slunk away. After all, even if they joined forces, they couldn't possibly defeat a peak Dou Zong expert. It wasn't worth risking their lives for some medicinal herbs.

After the five left, Rean led the Medicine Fairy deeper into the valley to search for higher-grade medicinal herbs, while also using the map to find the cave where the strange fire was located.

"You don't seem afraid of Medicine King Valley at all?" The Medicine Fairy looked at Li En with some curiosity.

"Why should I be afraid of them? Does my Dan Tower not have any Battle Saints yet?" Rean asked with a smile.

A faint smile appeared on the face beneath the Medicine Fairy's veil. "You're quite shameless, considering yourself a member of the Pill Tower so quickly." "Am I not a member of the Pill Tower?" Rean feigned displeasure.

The Medicine Fairy was speechless for a moment. It was a joke. If anyone dared to say that Rean was not a member of the Pill Tower, the elders of the Little Pill Tower would fight them to the death. They even lost the Three Thousand Burning Flames in order to keep Rean.

Rean is now completely bound to the Danta; no one can separate him from it.

After the group from Medicine King Valley returned to headquarters, they described the appearances of Rean and the other person, causing a stir in Medicine King Valley. Several hidden old guys came out of seclusion.

"It should be Li Mu, the newly promoted ninth-grade alchemist of the Pill Tower, and that mysterious Medicine Fairy," a vice valley master of Medicine King Valley said calmly.

"This Li Mu has come to my Medicine King Valley, yet he didn't come to pay his respects to us first. Does he think we're not qualified?" another red-haired elder said unhappily.

"Qualifications? He's a ninth-grade alchemist, are you a ninth-grade alchemist?" an old man in purple robes asked with a smile.

After a brief discussion, the group decided to send someone to invite Rean and his companion to visit Medicine King Valley.

Rean originally did not plan to visit Medicine King Valley, but after carefully examining the map, he discovered that the location shown on the map was actually the headquarters of Medicine King Valley. Wouldn't this mean he had to go to the headquarters of Medicine King Valley to steal the strange fire?

For a moment, Li En was also in a dilemma. After all, there were Dou Sheng experts in Medicine King Valley. It would be quite difficult to snatch the strange fire from a Dou Sheng.

In the end, Rean agreed to visit Medicine King Valley. He planned to try a diplomatic approach first, then resort to force, to see if he could trick Medicine King Valley into handing over the strange fire, even if it came at a price.

The headquarters of Yaowang Valley is nestled among the mountains, with its blue-brick and gray-tiled buildings scattered along the mountainside.

A bronze medicine furnace patterned wind chime hangs on the eaves and brackets of the main hall. When the mountain wind blows by, it makes a clear and melodious sound, startling the bronze cranes crouching on the eaves, whose beaks hold lingzhi mushrooms that tremble slightly.

Passing through the winding corridor, the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum in the herb gardens on both sides glows with purple light, and the golden thread lotus flows with honey-colored veins between the rocks.

The pillars are deeply carved with herbal illustrations, and every stroke is imbued with the fragrance of herbs that have been absorbed over the years.

The bronze incense burner in front of the main hall burns perpetually, and wisps of blue smoke seep from the coiled dragon patterns on its body, staining the white marble steps with spiderweb-like cracks of medicinal residue.

The scripture pavilion, carved into the cliff behind the mountain, is like a hanging coffin embedded in the rock wall. Sandalwood medicine cabinets are arranged along the cracks in the mountain, and the cinnabar labels on the drawers have long since faded into mottled dark red.

Outside the pavilion, a waterfall cascades into a deep pool, its spray carrying the cool fragrance of bitter ginseng and snow lotus, condensing into a persistent damp mist on the granite-paved drying ground.

Seven glass kilns are arranged along the earth's veins at the bottom of the valley, and the ventilation holes on the top of the kilns emit indigo or crimson smoke day and night.

Every night at midnight, the luminous pearls embedded outside the kiln reflect the medicinal smoke, turning the entire valley into a flowing galaxy.

When Rean and the Medicine Fairy stepped into this place, they clearly felt the powerful array power around them. This area was shrouded by a huge array.

As they stepped into the valley, a terrifying pressure quietly appeared, and an old man in white robes appeared before them, leading a group of Medicine King Valley disciples.

This white-robed elder was none other than a Dou Zun powerhouse! (End of Chapter)
