Gao Wu: I became a saint through daily settlements
Chapter 79 Searching for Ancient Ginseng from Southeast Asia
"Oh? Tell me about it." Lin Yue leaned forward slightly and asked curiously.
Upon hearing this, Wang Teng didn't hide anything. He slapped his thigh and said heartily:
"It was these star beasts you killed that reminded me of these details."
Star Beast? What connection could there be between ancient ginseng from Southeast Asia and a star beast?
Lin Yue frowned slightly, a hint of doubt rising in her heart.
Logically speaking, star beasts are animals, and ancient ginseng from the South Seas is a plant; there shouldn't be any special connection between the two.
"Although this ancient ginseng from Southeast Asia is just a plant, it is, after all, a plant that has gained sentience."
Spiritual plants are created by nature, and it is common for them to develop sentience.
"This ancient ginseng is not like ordinary plants, which take root in the soil and remain unmoved by wind and rain. Instead, it is extremely delicate."
"Moreover, the ancient ginseng from Southeast Asia has another weakness, which is that it is extremely averse to animal blood."
"Even if only a trace of beast blood touches its roots, it will instinctively flee and will never stay in one place."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yue fell into a brief moment of contemplation.
"I loathe animal blood..."
At this point, Wang Teng paused again before continuing:
"In other words, we can use the blood of this cloud-deer to force out the ancient ginseng from the South Seas that is hiding in the soil."
"However, if we can't find the general location of the ancient ginseng from Southeast Asia, this trick will be useless." Wang Teng shook his head.
He found this unconventional strategy guide in an unknown book of miscellaneous writings.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yue's eyes lit up.
"Brother Wang Teng, there's no need to worry about this."
Even with animal blood, it would be very difficult for an ordinary person to actually find ancient ginseng from Southeast Asia.
Why?
Because within this secret realm, towering trees make it extremely difficult for ordinary people to find the ancient ginseng's location.
Not to mention capturing the ancient ginseng.
However, Lin Yue possesses the extraordinary ability of the Martial Arts Treasures Record.
The Record of Martial Arts Treasures has an extremely strong sensitivity to all kinds of martial arts treasures recorded in it.
Therefore, as long as it is within the sensing range of the Martial Arts Treasures Record, Lin Yue can determine whether there are any martial arts treasures here.
"Could it be that Lin Yue's martial arts talent lies in his exceptional sensitivity to spiritual plants?"
"Otherwise, why would they say that?" Wang Teng pondered.
Martial arts talent can be broadly categorized as follows:
One type is the talent for comprehending true qi, which is the martial arts talent that the Martial Arts Alliance values and promotes the most.
Martial artists with this kind of talent have an extremely strong ability to perceive and comprehend true qi.
Practicing martial arts techniques is twice as effective with half the effort, allowing one to quickly grasp the essence of the techniques and break through realms at a speed far exceeding that of ordinary people.
Therefore, this type of talent is valued by the league, resulting in the cultivation of the most talented individuals.
In ancient times, this kind of talent was extremely rare.
Now, after generations of training and selection by the Martial Arts Alliance, this type of talent has become the most common talent.
Another type of martial arts talent is the talent that increases the speed of physical strength growth.
In the ancient times when martial arts were prevalent, this kind of talent was highly regarded and admired. Many martial arts masters in ancient times were powerful individuals with this kind of talent.
The legendary strongest person, Tian Jingsha, is said to possess both types of martial arts talent.
On the path of martial arts, the strong are respected.
Therefore, if someone is found to possess both of these talents, they will definitely be sought after by various forces.
What do martial artists look for?
It all comes down to the intensity of actual combat!
No matter how eloquently you boast, if you can't put your skills to practical use, you'll only ever be a weakling.
Therefore, these two types of martial arts talent are the two most common and the two most practical types of talent among all talents.
In addition, there are some talents that are not very useful in actual combat, which is the type of talent that Wang Teng is now guessing.
Aside from practical combat talent, there are more than fifty other types of talent, but some of them are so useless that they are not even recognized as martial arts talent.
"Lin Yue is very likely to have this kind of medicinal talent."
"Medicinal talent not only grants an exceptionally strong perception of medicinal herbs, but also imbues martial artists with remarkable patience towards them."
Every medicine has some degree of toxicity. Whether it is a qi and blood-activating medicine to aid cultivation or a healing and repairing medicine, they all contain a certain amount of toxicity, only the degree of toxicity varies.
Therefore, the Martial Arts Alliance has formulated strict rules for drug use based on the drug resistance of most martial artists.
Martial artists are prohibited from using excessive amounts of medicine, lest toxins accumulate in the body and damage the meridians and physical body.
The most common blood and qi potions among martial artists are a prime example of this.
People with a strong affinity for medicine can even drink qi and blood medicine like water, while most people will only use one qi and blood medicine per week at most.
"No wonder Lin Yue is progressing so quickly!" Wang Teng exclaimed.
When the two had sparred on Battle.net before, Wang Teng only felt that Lin Yue was at most a little bit stronger than him.
But now it seems that even with the potential to become a Martial Emperor, I probably can't even catch up with Lin Yue's taillights.
"At this rate of progress, how many Blue Star Coins would we have to spend on health potions?!"
Qi and blood potions are quite expensive; a single ordinary qi and blood potion can cost over a thousand Blue Star coins on the market.
If one were to drink the Qi and Blood Elixir like water, even a martial artist of his distinguished background and privileged circumstances would find it difficult to withstand such a drain.
Wang Teng guessed that Lin Yue's talent for medicine must be frighteningly high, and that he must drink qi and blood medicine like a beverage to be able to improve so quickly!
Thinking of this, Wang Teng glanced at Lin Yue and found that Lin Yue did not intend to continue speaking.
"Never mind, everyone has secrets they can't tell."
"If Lin Yue doesn't want to talk about it, it's best not to question him," Wang Teng pondered.
"Anyway, as long as I can find the ancient ginseng from Southeast Asia, everything else is none of my business."
Before long, the group had eaten and drunk their fill.
"After eating a meal of Yunnan venison, the feeling of my blood and qi burning was comparable to the blood and qi potion that Tang Long gave me."
"It feels so good," Lin Yue murmured, feeling his skin burning.
"It will take at least half a day to get from here to the southeast of the secret realm," Lin Yue roughly estimated the distance between the two places.
"We've been in the secret realm for over a day now, and we're still only on the second of the outer three layers."
"To be honest, this progress is a bit slow."
"As Wang Teng said, the entrance to the Red Moon Secret Realm will open on the fifth day. So, we must make it to the inner three levels of the Secret Realm within the next three days!" Lin Yue said firmly.
the other side.
Wang Teng's two henchmen were not idle either. After drinking a cup of Yunrong deer blood, they were now as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and even their hands were trembling as they gripped the bottle.
"You two, hurry up!" Wang Teng yelled.
"This is the blood of a star beast, it's incredibly precious! Don't spill it!"
Good animal blood is not cheaper than animal meat. For example, highly nourishing items like Yunrong deer blood can sell for about 5000 Blue Star coins per liter on the market.
If a martial artist urgently needs to boost their qi and blood, the price can double.
Upon hearing this, the two underlings responded:
"receive!"
The dirty work of collecting beast blood was naturally left to these two underlings.
What role does the eldest brother play?
Just be someone who does nothing!
If you still have to do things yourself, then what kind of big brother are you?
"Also, you two each ate one of my ration pills while you were unconscious. After you leave, each of you will have 50 Blue Star Coins deducted from your pay."
"Deduct it from your wages."
"Yes!" the two henchmen replied.
Before long, the two henchmen had collected eight test tubes of blood from the clouded deer.
"Yes, that's about right. Any more and it will be inconvenient to carry." Wang Teng nodded.
"Set sail! Heading to the southeast corner of the secret realm."
"yes!"
……
Half a day later.
"This is the southeast corner of the secret realm." Lin Yue observed the surrounding environment and found that it was indeed different from the coniferous forest he had just entered.
Before us stretched a vast expanse of broad-leaved forest, and even the air quality was much better than in the southwest corner.
"Is the ancient ginseng from Southeast Asia really located here?" Lin Yue wondered.
【Martial Arts Curiosities】
"There's still no reaction." Lin Yue put the Martial Arts Treasures Record back.

P.S.: The writing was a bit messy during the May Day holiday, or rather, the entire Southeast Asia arc was quite chaotic. So, chapters 75, 76, and 77 have been slightly revised. Please forgive me, everyone who loves Eddie Peng, Daniel Wu, and Liu Yifei.
If there are any parts you don't understand later, you can go back and read the previous text.
I will try my best to revise the entire Southeast Asia chapter properly (crying).

……
As the secret realm has remained open for longer, many students have chosen to leave it.
"This hidden paradise in Southeast Asia is not as safe as the legends say," lamented many students who had already been eliminated.
"Yes, there are even ferocious star beasts inside the secret realm!"
"If it weren't for the timely rescue, I'm afraid I would have collapsed inside the secret realm and never made it out," someone lamented.
On the other hand, there's the teaching profession.
"Is the student making the fastest progress right now from Tianjing?" someone asked.
As the core area of the Martial Arts Alliance, Tianjing is rich in martial arts resources, and the students it cultivates have always been powerful, consistently ranking among the top in previous explorations of secret realms.
"Not bad, two students from Tianjing have already reached the first level of the third level of the secret realm, and are only one step away from the core area of the inner third level."
"Next is a student from Yunzhou, who has also reached the first level of the inner three layers."
"Yunzhou?" Upon hearing this name, many teachers showed expressions of surprise.
Yunzhou's martial arts resources are not developed; in fact, they can be described as barren.
Therefore, many people were surprised that the students from Yunzhou could achieve such good results.
"That's right. Although Yunzhou doesn't have abundant martial arts resources, it does have quite a few talented students," explained a teacher from Tingzhou, which borders Yunzhou.
"The student named Shi Chuan from Yunzhou is extremely strong and has outstanding talent. In terms of actual combat ability, he is not much different from Xu Chengdu from Tianjing."
"It's just that the speed of cultivation improvement is a bit slower because of limited resources."
"So strong? They can even rival the students from Tianjing?" Many teachers looked incredulous.
It is common knowledge that the students of Tianjing are very strong.
"By the way, how's that student from Jiang Province doing?" someone asked, mentioning Lin Yue.
It is already common knowledge that Lin Yue killed the cultivators from Miaozhou.
"According to the location data, the student from Jiang Province is currently on the second floor of the third outermost layer," a staff member replied.
"Is it still on the second layer of the outermost three layers?" Many people expressed their confusion.
"This student is clearly one of the top students in this batch, so why is their progress so slow?"
"How does this person compare to the students of Tianjing?" Many teachers, who had not witnessed the fight between Lin Yue and the Miao Zhou cultivator, asked curiously.
"Although he can't compare to the strongest one in Tianjing, he's still much stronger than most of the students in Tianjing," someone explained.
Then, the progress of all the schools in the country was displayed on the big screen.
[First Place: Tianjing Province]
Second Place: Yunzhou
……
[11th Place: Jiangxi Province]
"Jiang Province actually ranked 11th this time, which is not bad." Guo Jingyao nodded as he looked at the data.
In terms of martial arts resources, Jiang Province can only rank 20th in the country at most, and its ranking in various secret realms has also fluctuated around 20th in the past.
He was already very satisfied with his 11th place finish this time.
Lin Yue, in particular, performed exceptionally well this time.
If Lin Yue hadn't killed that Miao Zhou cultivator, who knows how many more students would have been killed.
Within the secret realm.
Led by Lin Yue, Wang Teng and his team are searching for the nearest ancient ginseng from Southeast Asia.
"The reaction from the Martial Arts Treasures Record is getting more and more intense. It seems that the ancient ginseng from Southeast Asia is nearby."
Lin Yue stopped, closed his eyes, and carefully sensed the sensations emanating from the Martial Arts Treasures Record in his mind.
Before me lay a dense broad-leaved forest, overgrown with weeds and rugged rocks, a scene of perilous beauty.
"The ancient ginseng should be nearby," Lin Yue said, pointing to a hill in front of him.
Upon hearing this, Wang Teng nodded.
"OK."
Wang Teng turned his head and instructed the two henchmen behind him:
"Bring out the beast blood!"
"yes!"
The two henchmen carefully took out the cloud deer blood they had collected earlier and poured it into a spraying device.
"Sprinkle the beast's blood," Wang Teng commanded.
As soon as he finished speaking, the blood of the Cloud Deer poured out, covering an area within a ten-meter radius.
Many shrubs and weeds had their leaves stained with varying amounts of star beast blood.
The three of them excitedly lay on the ground, searching for traces of the ancient ginseng from Southeast Asia.
Lin Yue sat to the side, quietly listening to the sounds around him.
After tempering his Heavenly Bone, his hearing and vision have been greatly enhanced, and he can even further enhance his senses by activating his true energy.
"Whoosh~" A very faint sound entered Lin Yue's ears.
The sound was extremely faint; if Lin Yue's senses hadn't been enhanced, he would have had a hard time detecting it.
"I've found you." A slight smile appeared on Lin Yue's lips.
Just then, a strange light emanated from the Martial Arts Treasures Record.
A line of golden text slowly emerged:
【Southern Ancient Ginseng】
