1369: C1369 Spiritual Grass

C1369 Spiritual Grass

Immediately, everyone turned around and headed toward the cave.

Whoosh!

In the cave, the thick fog obscured their vision.

"This is..."

Zhou Yan raised his eyes and swept his gaze, immediately feeling overjoyed.

"Spiritual herbs..."

"Spiritual Grass!"

Zhou Yan's eyes lit up as his face flushed red with joy.

The spiritual grass contained a strong spiritual energy.

A normal spirit grass was enough to allow a martial cultivator to break through two small realms.

Not to mention, there were many spiritual herbs in the cave.

"Haha, I didn't expect to be able to obtain a spiritual grass!"

Zhou Yan laughed wildly as his face revealed an excited expression.

Swish!

In the next moment, his figure flashed as he rushed towards a spiritual herb.

Rumble!

However, just as he got close to the spiritual grass, a surge of energy came from all directions and slammed into his body.

Crack!

A crisp sound rang out as the bones in Zhou Yan's right arm shattered and he let out a painful howl.

Immediately after, he fell to the ground with blood flowing out from the corner of his mouth. His face was filled with shock.

"Hiss, how can these spiritual herbs be so powerful?"

Zhou Yan sucked in a breath of cold air and rejoiced in his heart.

Fortunately, he had sensed that something was wrong and retreated in time.

Otherwise, with his current strength, he would not have been able to withstand it at all.

"It seems that not only the talisman, but even the spiritual grass has its own consciousness!"

Zhou Yan muttered to himself.

As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, he immediately became excited.

If the valley was filled with spirit herbs...

As long as he gathered these Spiritual Grasses, he would be able to exchange them for a large amount of resources and break through quickly.

Thinking about this, he could no longer sit still. He struggled to get up and walked toward the spiritual herbs.

Soon, he found a flaming lotus.

"Fire Lotus?"

Zhou Yan frowned.

The flaming lotus was a holy medicine for healing injuries.

If it was refined into a pill, it would be able to speed up the process of a Martial Disciple breaking through to the Martial Warrior Realm.

Unfortunately, there was a venomous scorpion guarding the flaming lotus.

"Little thing, this is a good thing. Save it for mother's treatment!"

Zhou Yan rolled his eyes and thought of a plan.

Buzz!

In the next moment, he reached out and pulled out his sword. Circulating the true essence in his body, he slashed at the poisonous scorpion.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Almost at the same time, Zhou Yan used the Tiger's Roar Fist Technique to attack the poisonous scorpion.

"Roar!"

"Awoo!"

As the wind from the fist whistled, the poisonous scorpion was forced to retreat as it spat out black blood.

However, it still refused to let go as it held onto the flaming lotus with all its might.

"Bastard, let go of me!"

Seeing this scene, Zhou Yan fumed with rage.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

In the next moment, Zhou Yan's figure flashed as he turned into a phantom and circled around the scorpion.

"Ah...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

A miserable scream instantly resounded through the air.

A wound that was more than an inch deep appeared on the abdomen of the poisonous scorpion as venom flew everywhere.

"Evil creature, prepare to die!"

Seeing that, Zhou Yan's eyes lit up as he pounced over like a cheetah.

Clang!

However, right at this moment, the sound of clashing weapons could be heard.

In the next moment, Commander Wang stabbed over with a spear in his hand.

Boom!

A monstrous and fiendish aura swept over.

The spear in Captain Wang's hand was as sharp as lightning and seemed to pierce through the air, making one's hair stand on end.

"What?"

Zhou Yan's expression changed drastically as he retreated.

Puchi!

In the next moment, the long spear descended and struck the neck of the poisonous scorpion.

Boom!

With a sudden burst of strength, the scorpion's head exploded and its head was separated from its body.

"Haha, Commander Wang is so mighty!"

"As expected, Captain Wang is the owner of this place. That brat doesn't know what's good for him. He's courting death by fighting Captain Wang for the Spiritual Grass."

Seeing this, the others in the cave started to become excited.

Captain Wang was the only martial arts master in their group.

On top of that, Captain Wang was extremely generous and treated them extremely well.

Therefore, they all respected him.

"Little friend, are you okay?"

Captain Wang glanced at Zhou Yan, who was on the ground, and asked with concern.

"Thank you, Commander Wang, for saving my life."

Zhou Yan was so grateful that he quickly thanked him.

"There's no need to be so polite."

Commander Wang waved his hand and continued:

"This valley is filled with danger. It's too dangerous for you to enter alone."

"This is the reward you deserve!"

With that, he took out a jade token and threw it to Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan picked it up and saw that the words "First-Ranked Knight" were written on it.

"First Rank?!"

Zhou Yan was startled, and was a little surprised: "Could it be that Commander Wang helped me apply for this?"

"That's right!"

Commander Wang nodded and explained: "The first rank is the highest honor in my Nanyang County, and you can enjoy generous treatment."

"Little friend, since you're new here, you might not know that the Martial Arts Hall holds an examination every hundred years."

"And since you have a Rank One medal, you can enter the Martial Arts Hall to cultivate."

"What?"

Hearing Captain Wang's explanation, Zhou Yan's entire body trembled.

A First-Ranked Knight was actually so precious?

"Little brother, the Martial Arts Hall's examination is about to begin. I'll take my leave first!"

Commander Wang cupped his hands and left in a hurry.

"Hehe, this First-Ranked medal is not bad!"

Zhou Yan held the badge in his hand and chuckled.

"Brat, don't be silly!"

At this moment, the black cat appeared. It coldly glanced at Zhou Yan and scolded:

"Hurry up and leave. This place is too close to the Martial Arts Hall and will be easily discovered by others. If that happens, we'll be in trouble!"

Although the black cat was only the size of a cub, its battle power was shocking and could even fight against a Martial Master.

Furthermore, it also knew various skills and its battle power was stronger.

"Little Black, that's a Spiritual Grass. Should we pick it...."

Zhou Yan hesitated.

"Fool, are a few spiritual herbs worth our efforts?"

The black cat looked at Zhou Yan with disdain and curled its lips:

"There are countless treasures in the Martial Arts Hall, and they are much better than these trash. Hurry up and follow!"

After saying that, the black cat jumped to the side of the spiritual herb and dug with its claws.

Zhou Yan's heart trembled as he hurriedly followed.

...

Half an incense stick of time later.

"Damn it, someone else beat me to it so quickly?"

After a moment, Zhou Yan gritted his teeth.

He originally planned to take advantage of the chaos and launch a sneak attack.

However, he never would have thought that there would be someone else hiding in the cave, plucking all the spiritual herbs.

"Hmph, once I get these Spiritual Grasses and become much stronger, I'll make sure you won't be able to bear the consequences!"

Zhou Yan looked at the cave hatefully.

Whoosh!

In the next moment, Zhou Yan stomped his feet on the ground and jumped up, wanting to chase after the thief and kill him.

However, before he could even take a step forward...

Boom!

A terrifying wave of air suddenly exploded outwards.1

It was Commander Wang, who had once again pounced towards him after killing the scorpion.

"Not good!"

Zhou Yan's expression changed slightly as he quickly retreated and dodged the attack.

At the same time, he flipped his wrist and a dagger appeared.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Zhou Yan's pupils contracted as his face revealed a look of shock.

In his eyes, the spiritual herb had actually disappeared into thin air.

As if it had merged into the soil, it disappeared without a trace.
