Chapter 669 - 669 Immortal Tree
669 Immortal Tree
One dragon-patterned carp was naturally not enough to eat. After all, it was too little.
Lin Mo poured out a divine bird from the storage bag at his waist, swiftly shed its feathers, and began to roast it with the Dao Flames.
As time passed, the bronze cauldron began to glow and emit a fragrant aroma. If someone who did not know what was going on saw this, they would have thought that this was a pill refinement.
The lid of the cauldron was opened, and the meat inside was stewed. The soup was golden yellow, and drinking a mouthful of it immediately made one feel comfortable.
“I’m going to start eating.”
Qilin did not stand on ceremony. She picked up the bowl and chopsticks and began to eat. The fish meat was smooth and melted in her mouth, leaving a fragrant taste in her mouth…
“It tastes really good…”
Song Lianxue took a bite and exclaimed. She had eaten medicinal food before, but this was the first time she had eaten something so delicious…
“There’s also the divine bird’s meat. It’s truly an extreme enjoyment…”
Lin Mo nodded in satisfaction. He took out a few bottles of wine from his collection, and the three of them began to feast.
While he was enjoying the food, he also heard Song Lianxue talk about the treasure land.
He also received a shocking piece of news.
Song Lianxue had a companion who went to a treasure land when they entered the ancient battlefield.
Nonetheless, there was a powerful seal there that they could not break. They could only watch over the treasure.
“There might be a treasure in the place that’s been sealed.”
Lin Mo’s interest was piqued. What he lacked the most at the moment were cultivation resources that contained a large amount of the universe’s energy.
If there was a treasure inside, he did not want to miss it.
“Since you found the treasure land, Qilin and I will contribute, and we’ll split the treasures equally.”
Lin Mo was not greedy. He asked Song Lianxue to take him there to break the seal.
According to Song Lianxue’s estimation, that place should be a medicinal field.
Even so, no one knew what was inside. Only by opening the seal would they know.
Half a day later, three figures quickly passed through the huge mountains.
This place was a ruin with broken walls. Strictly speaking, it could only be considered a ruin.
Giant trees towered into the clouds, and birds rested on their trunks.
The chirping of birds could be heard from all four directions, and the demonic beasts below were moving about, full of vitality.
“Wait, there’s the smell of blood.”
When they were about to reach their destination, Qilin suddenly stopped. Her sharp nose picked up the strong smell of blood.
“Oh no, Mao Zhu…”
Song Lianxue was shocked, and she sped up in worry.
Soon, they came to a ruin. The collapsed wall was covered with green vines.
Immortal light appeared in the surroundings from time to time, illuminating the entire sky. The sound of the great Dao could be vaguely heard echoing in the air.
“There was no battle here…”
Lin Mo observed his surroundings. This place was very shabby, but it was also very ancient. There were no signs of a recent battle.
Of course, this did not rule out the possibility that someone had heaven-defying means and could forge the traces of the passage of time…
“That scared me. Mao Zhu left a mark and left a long time ago.” Song Lianxue patted her chest.
Mao Zhu was a rogue cultivator she had met in Snow State. He was extremely talented, and she had always wanted to invite him to join her in the Snow Valley.
“I don’t feel any abnormality…”
After observing for a long time, Lin Mo retracted his spiritual power and shook his head.
Qilin reacted the same. She did not feel anything unusual, and there was no danger here.
“This is strange. The smell of blood has disappeared. There’s a medicinal fragrance instead…”
Suddenly, Qilin sensed something and used her soul power again, but she still found nothing.
Nevertheless, she was still sure that she had smelled blood earlier. Although it was very faint, she was not wrong.
“Let’s go in and take a look…”
They found a path under the collapsed wall where the green vines were blocking. It should lead to the medicinal field.
As they walked in, the fragrance of medicine filled the air as if there was some kind of divine medicine inside.
“This is strange. Mao Zhu and I couldn’t even get close to this path…”
Song Lianxue said. When they had just entered, they had clearly felt that there was a seal here.
After guarding it for a while and realizing that they could not break it, she left and planned to find help.
Now, there was no obstruction here, allowing them to enter freely, which made her feel uneasy.
“Guys, look at what this is…” Lin Mo was shocked and pointed ahead. The space there was turbulent, and a strange scene appeared.
In the image, a divine tree was rooted. It was incomparably huge and bore no fruit, but it bloomed with nine flowers.
At the center of the flowers, there was a drop of liquid that emitted a golden light. It contained an extremely strong vitality.
The fragrance spread out, and just by smelling it, Lin Mo felt like he was about to ascend. This was definitely an existence that surpassed heaven grade.
Could it be a legendary immortal medicine?
“We’re rich! This must be an immortal tree! The golden liquid at each of the flower’s cores is a legendary supreme treasure!”
Song Lianxue was so excited that her delicate face turned red and her hands trembled. She could not help but walk forward.
According to the ancient records in Snow Valley, once a person consumed a sacred item of this level, one would not have any bottleneck when one was still below the Emperor realm…
“Don’t get too excited. Be careful of traps…”
Lin Mo immediately came back to his senses and grabbed Song Lianxue’s wrist, pulling her back.
He did not believe that it was so easy to obtain such a legendary sacred object.
After all, even divine medicines could be sentient and have their own consciousness. The immortal tree would definitely be even more heaven-defying and have intelligence no weaker than humans.
Even if Lin Mo had the auspicious White Qilin with him, he did not believe it would be so easy.
Lin Mo woke up Qilin, who was intoxicated by the fragrance. He told her to protect Song Lianxue.
Afterward, Lin Mo used his soul power to investigate and did not miss a single corner.
In his perception, he did not find the immortal tree, but he found a few formation patterns that were in ruins.
That said, the power within the formation patterns still made his heart palpitate. What kind of person could set up such terrifying formation patterns?
Fortunately, this formation was broken and had lost its former power.
Perhaps it was because he had the auspicious beast by his side, but Lin Mo’s luck was extremely good. He found the loophole in the formation in less than half an hour.
This place had rotted, and the formation banners had turned to dust. They had successfully entered the formation, and each of them had a spatial teleportation talisman in hand.
If something was off, they would escape without hesitation.
They would not be able to withstand any danger here and would be instantly turned into dust.
“There’s no other way…”
Halfway through, they found that the front was blocked. There was a formation operating, and the terrifying power made their hearts tremble.
Qilin stepped forward and closed her eyes. In just a moment, her face turned pale, and her body staggered, almost falling.
“Don’t use that move…” Lin Mo felt pained as he stuffed a half-divine medicine into her hands.
This place was filled with danger, and the side effects of her move were terrifying. It involved karma and would be settled here.
“Let’s go this way. I feel like we’re going to pick up a treasure…”
Qilin took a bite of the half-divine medicine and spoke with difficulty.
Following the path she pointed out, the three entered smoothly, avoiding the formation patterns and finally arriving at the depths.
However, there was still a formation in this place. Although it was broken, it was still terrifying.
“It’s blood. Someone has broken into this place. Unfortunately…”
Right ahead, a young man was sitting on his knees. He was motionless, and there was a bloody hole in the middle of his eyebrows.
The blood had yet to coagulate, and it was obvious that he had just died.
The fact that the other party was able to reach this place meant that he was no ordinary person either. His soul power was powerful enough to avoid the remnants of the formation.
