Perfect Double Agent

However, he controls the power of spacetime and can restore it. Although the duration will be halved the second time, to only about forty seconds, and the third time only twenty seconds, that is enough.

"What is Di Chong busy with here?" Bai Ye raised his eyes and looked at the lightning bolt in his hand.

However, the other party did not respond at all; his face was ashen and his eyes were lifeless.

Having been defeated by Li Yuncong before, and then crushed by the little devil here, all his pride and will completely collapsed, as if he had lost all hope for the future.

Bai Ye glanced at it and threw the lightning bolt directly to Bai Hu. Even Li Yuncong and Zhen Gu rushed over from the other two battlefields.

The medicinal field was shrouded in mist, and the mountain of corpses remained unchanged. Behind it, a blue altar stood like a bottomless abyss, continuously absorbing the blood of all kinds of living beings.

The altar was not large, with a diameter of just over two meters. It had a base made of bluestone and an upper part made of the bones of a golden divine bird, which enshrined an ancient golden gate as tall as a person.

"Legend has it that this medicinal field in the center is the most important sacred site of the Divine Medicine Palace, and it is suspected to be related to some kind of elixir of immortality, which was brought back from the no-man's land by the old sect leader." It was Zhen Gu who spoke.

Seeing the two looking at him, he explained, "Back then, the Divine Medicine Palace had a close relationship with the Spirit Clan. Unfortunately, the later leader went to the No Man's Land, and soon after, the soul lamps in the sect went out. As a result, the Divine Medicine Palace declined and eventually perished."

In fact, there are many opportunities in the upper realm, but most of them are in the vast and boundless no-man's land. The Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus of the Celestial Immortal Academy is an example of this. Legend has it that the Celestial Immortal Academy originally had two sect leaders, but after going to the no-man's land, only one of them returned alive.

“No man’s land…” Li Yuncong sighed softly, his face showing both emotion and solemnity, and he even unconsciously touched the mark between his eyebrows.

"Have you been to the no-man's land these past two years?" Bai Ye asked.

"I was chased by a group of mercenaries for a while, and then I accidentally entered an ancient ruin. I stepped on a set of array patterns and was teleported to a no-man's land. I lived there in fear for two years. You have no idea how much I wanted to see a living person back then!" As he spoke, Li Yuncong looked at Bai Ye with a resentful expression. He had a lot to say, but he didn't say it outright and simply glossed over it.

"Fortune and misfortune are intertwined, good and bad go hand in hand. At least you seem to be doing quite well now." Bai Ye nodded and stood in front of the altar.

What's in the herb field isn't important; what matters is when the portal here will open. Di Chong and his group waited here for more than just a day or two, and finally, they arrived.

But they also can't afford to wait. Once word gets out about the turmoil here, there's a high chance that gods or cult leaders will appear.

They might even be assassinated, given the number of talented individuals who have died here; it's hard to say that the people behind them might resort to underhanded tactics.

"Force it open." A treasure appeared in Bai Ye's hand.

Although Li Yuncong hadn't seen him for two years, they worked together seamlessly. He took out a purple thigh bone, which looked like the skeleton of some kind of ferocious beast. To this day, it still had dense Dao runes on it. As soon as he activated it, a terrifying aura that made people tremble was released.

"Supreme?" Zhen Gu silently put away the hazy artifact in his hand and took a few steps back. Even Bai Ye retreated with a black line on his face.

"boom!"

The purple leg bone was swung up like a giant club and slammed hard against the door. The heavens and earth trembled violently, and a great purple light shone brightly. Then, a purple ferocious bird with a supreme aura rushed out, making the entire altar seem to collapse.

At the same moment, the door rumbled and, instead of closing, opened a crack about half a person's width wide.

"I'll be visiting your Tianhu Mountain later!" Li Yuncong seemed completely exhausted, slumped against the altar, his face deathly pale.

"Okay." Bai Ye put his arm around his shoulder, nodded, and they went into the gate together. Behind him, Zhen Gu followed as well, while only Bai Hu obediently guarded the altar.

The medicinal field was silent and not very large, but on this golden sand, there were sacred golden lotuses that shone with a dazzling glow.

There were so many of them, one every five steps, densely packed, covering the entire medicinal field. As far as the eye could see, the ground was covered with golden lotuses, each one as big as a washbasin, like flowers of the Great Dao, exuding indescribable Daoist charm and medicinal fragrance, blooming all over this small world, making this place dazzlingly beautiful.

However, most of the lotus flowers here are like spiritual lotuses that have been growing for seven or eight thousand years, and there are only a dozen or so golden lotuses of the sacred medicine level.

"What a waste! If we had come ten or twenty thousand years earlier, wouldn't this place be covered with miraculous medicines?" Li Yuncong exclaimed.

"I suppose so." Bai Ye's gaze swept over the field of golden lotuses, his two pupils, one black and one white, appearing and disappearing as he looked towards the other end of the medicinal field.

This medicinal field is rectangular. If they are standing at the foot position, then the other end must be the head position, which is also the most likely place to grow special medicinal herbs.

“Go ahead, this sand looks like it was formed from crushed divine crystals. It’s probably edible. I’ll take a look.” Li Yuncong plopped down on the ground and picked a golden lotus petal, putting it in his mouth.

Even Zhen Gu deliberately closed his third eye between his eyebrows, intentionally avoiding them. In any case, he wouldn't have been able to get in without these two, so he had already gained an advantage.

Bai Ye simply smiled and did not go over. Instead, he stretched out his arm, extending it continuously, passing through the golden lotus petals, and heading towards the end.

Fortunately, there was no magic array on this medicinal field. Instead, it was like an independent little world. It was not difficult for him. In just a moment, he grabbed a golden clod of soil that was more than twenty meters long, along with the things planted on it.

"Tree?"

Chapter 165 Ginseng Fruit Tree?

"Tree?"

The three figures were all staring at the small tree in front of them, their faces full of astonishment.

It is only about two meters tall, with a strong and vigorous trunk, bark like scales, and leaves like stars. It is rooted in a small golden puddle, and its whole body is golden and dazzling, like a small golden sun, too dazzling.

However, both Li Yuncong and Zhen Gu frowned as they listened to the children's voices, which were either giggling or laughing, coming from the treetop.

This is too strange. It is just a small tree, but it is emitting children's voices, as if children are laughing. But what is even stranger is that the tree crown is moving on its own, shaking off golden children one by one.

"This...could it be the legendary elixir of immortality...?" Zhen Gu's eyes widened, unable to contain his excitement, staring intently at the nine golden children hanging under the tree canopy. Even Li Yuncong was the same.

They droop under the tree canopy, their eyes smiling, their bodies plump, sitting cross-legged in the air, their hands forming mudras, like little golden Maitreya Buddhas, sometimes swaying on their own, sometimes making sounds.

"It's not a ginseng fruit tree, it doesn't have the energy of longevity. It should be a divine medicine, or perhaps the old master of the Divine Medicine Palace once obtained a section of the root or branch of a ginseng fruit tree, planted it on a celestial corpse, and let it sprout, thus forming an alternative fruit tree."

Bai Ye spoke, and with a gentle tremor of his hand, the clod of earth cracked open, revealing half a golden skeleton, with the roots of the small tree anchored at the location of its head.

"Could it be that it has absorbed all the essence of the immortal corpse's flesh and blood...?"

It was obvious that although the skeletons and skulls still shone, they seemed to have lost their divine power, and even the immortal domain and pressure had disappeared.

Normally, even a section of root or stem could only become a half-ginseng fruit tree at most. However, this small tree has undergone a mutation based on the half-ginseng fruit. It is not an elixir of immortality, yet it seems to far surpass ordinary divine medicines.

"I'll be one..."

“Three pieces, you each take three, and the sapling is mine,” Bai Ye interrupted Li Yuncong and spoke directly.

Among cultivators, what they fear most is this kind of unequal distribution of spoils. Even between brothers, it is inevitable that rifts will arise, and the seeds of a complete break may even be sown.

Bai Ye wasn't that petty. The divine fruit was indeed precious, but such things usually only had extraordinary effects the first time you ate it. Rather than hiding something for the sake of a little something, it was better to be open about it.

"This……"

Zhen Gu was somewhat embarrassed, even a little at a loss. Most people would probably think of killing him to silence him if they encountered this situation. He even wondered if these two would leave him here forever.

"Take them, so you won't be without fruit to heal your injuries when the old servants of the Immortal Palace chase you down later." Li Yuncong shrugged and generously picked three little figures.

Zhen Gu hesitated for a moment, then picked three as well.

"Clean this place up, take everything you can, and then everyone go their separate ways."

The three exchanged a smile and began digging frantically, not even sparing the sand.

……

……

"They didn't chase after us, did they..."

"There shouldn't be any more... but I have a feeling they'll come after us again!"

Led by Zuo Xiaodi and Mu Zixiao, a group of young men and women fled to the edge of a building ruin in the central area with lingering fear. They seemed to be still shaken and couldn't help but look back.

"If I had known, I would have been better off following that little devil!" someone couldn't help but complain.

After experiencing Chen Qing's situation, they realized how terrifying the central area was. Not only were the first generation and the successors of the Immortal Palace there, but also the little devil Zhen Gu and others. Even if they went there, they wouldn't be able to get anything. Therefore, many people chose to leave the central area to seek their own fortune.

Who would have thought that such a divine gift truly existed, and it was even a tree-shaped divine medicine. This kind of divine medicine was extremely rare; there were only a handful in the entire Upper Realm, which made everyone very excited.

However, after they had gone to great lengths to finally break through the array patterns in that area, they discovered that it was actually a Myriad Poison Divine Tree!

Heaven had mercy! The sky was filled with poisonous insects, and Zuo Xiaodi, who was leading the group, almost couldn't escape. At the critical moment, if it weren't for her Crimson Dragon Steed blocking the disaster, she would definitely be dead.

"No wonder poisonous insects have appeared in many areas. It's all because of the Ten Thousand Poison Tree." Someone wiped the cold sweat from their forehead and asked in confusion, "Isn't the Ten Thousand Poison Tree in the Crimson Sun Forbidden Zone? It should have been sealed there two years ago. Could it have escaped two years ago?"

No one knew for sure, not even some of them had ever entered the Crimson Sun Forbidden Zone, but they had an instinctive fear of that poisonous tree that possessed divine power.

Just like the Tree of Ten Thousand Poisons, the same is true for the Tree of Ten Thousand Paths. Just as cultivators yearn for the Tree of Ten Thousand Paths, poisonous creatures are just as obsessed with the Tree of Ten Thousand Poisons.

However, at that moment, a tremor suddenly came from the rear, and at the same time, a series of buzzing wingbeats, like a death knell, caused the faces of the group who had just stopped to change drastically.

"No way... that tree actually grew out of there by itself!" someone exclaimed in shock, turning around to witness an unbelievable scene.

It was a tall, sacred ancient tree, several tens of feet tall. It strutted with its two thick main roots, scattering thousands of rays of light and a thousand divine rainbows. Wherever it passed, heaven and earth trembled.

This divine tree is extraordinary. Its trunk is as red as blood, and its old bark is cracked and split open. Each leaf shines like a star, some are golden, some are as black as iron, and some are purple. All kinds of light converge, creating a magnificent and astonishing spectacle.

However, around it, there were countless poisonous insects, including silver toads with dragon horns, colorful butterflies, golden centipedes with wings, and jet-black spiders.

Some were divine fire, some were true gods, and some were even celestial gods. They were located in different places, breathing poisonous gas at the poisonous tree and absorbing the light emitted by the poisonous tree. Even though they were far apart, they couldn't help but tremble.

"Wait... there seems to be another person..." Suddenly, someone pointed to a hazy figure on a golden, sacred branch of the Ten Thousand Poisons Tree. She sat among a group of poisonous insects, dressed in white, her legs constantly swinging as if teasing a poisonous snake with silver horns on its head below. She also yawned from time to time, as if she had just woken up.

The Poison Tree left, ignoring them, and headed towards the medicinal fields in the central area.

However, everyone's eyes remained fixed on the hazy woman. Although their faces were obscured, the ethereal aura emanating from her was so intense and transcendent that she seemed like a woman from a celestial realm, untouched by the presence of numerous poisonous insects.

"who is she……"

The group couldn't help but feel dazed, watching the Myriad Poison Tree disappear into the distance, speechless for a long time.

Chapter 166 Time-Traveling Body, Undercover Soul

Meanwhile, the white tiger, who had been guarding outside the altar, couldn't help but feel excited.

It looked at the large pile of Qiankun bags in front of it, its face filled with excitement.

Too many geniuses have died here. Although it wanted to take a bite, it ultimately restrained itself.

However, while the three didn't have time to loot, it did help out. In fact, there were quite a few things here that even it found luxurious.

Suddenly, the altar trembled, and three figures stepped out from it together, startling the White Tiger, who immediately turned around, "Your Highness..."

"Hmm." Bai Ye nodded, took out a golden lotus, a sacred medicine, and handed it over, while patting the tiger's head.

“Tiger, he already has a golden bull. Why don’t you come with me? I’ll venture into the no-man’s land and support you,” Li Yuncong said with a smile.

"Get lost, I don't need you to raise me!" The white tiger was still very proud. As the young master of the clan, even when it was ambushed by Feng Wu back then, it did not submit to this guy who was rumored to have been defeated by Feng Wu. It really looked down on him.

But, in the next instant, it excitedly pointed to the various Qiankun bags and said, "Your Highness, there are many good things inside, including sacred medicines."

Bai Ye nodded, not minding at all. He swept his divine sense over the area, took two sacred herbs, and said to the two people and the tiger, "You can divide them up."

No one refused.

However, not far away, Bai Ye also spotted Shan Dianzi lying among a pile of corpses, his face ashen. After thinking for a moment, he decided not to make a move.

A person who has lost their will is essentially dead; whether they are killed or not makes little difference.

The speed at which loot is shared is often faster than the speed at which it is found.
