Chapter 976: Horrifying Blood Mist
There was almost a magical herb swaying gently in the breeze in every crack of the stone at the foot of the mountain. The breath they exuded condensed in the air and did not dissipate, and it looked like a layer of mist. Even if you enter the medicine garden of the Hunyuan Secret Realm, you will not be so shocked. The magical herbs at the foot of the mountain are not only numerous, but also extremely old. More than 90% of them are of sufficient age and can be picked at any time.
Faced with countless magical herbs, Zhang Jun suddenly had a feeling that these were not magical herbs at all, but weeds that can be found everywhere. After a moment of shock, he came back to his senses and murmured, "Dig them all! Dig them all! Don't leave a single one!"
Then, the only thing he did was to dig herbs, mechanically repeating the action of digging herbs. As a descendant of the Shennong Sect, his means of collecting herbs are far superior to those of ordinary people. With a thought in his mind, trillions of divine thoughts flew out, locking onto one magical herb after another, and then hundreds of millions of divine thoughts were activated together, and a magical herb could be completely taken into the Hunyuan Secret Realm immediately.
This is the advantage of having many divine thoughts, and you can do things faster. If he didn't have divine thoughts, or if the number of divine thoughts was too small, he could only dig one by one, and it would take who knows when to dig out all the divine medicines here.
Just as Zhang Jun was digging medicine frantically, under the Yuanqi fruit tree, the female warrior of the Li tribe called a subordinate. Her subordinate had a sharp and thin nose, was very short, and looked timid.
"You Wenfeng tribe have the most sensitive sense of smell. You smell it carefully and tell me where that damn guy escaped to. I must tear him alive and eat him!" Her tone was cold and her expression was ferocious.
The short subordinate immediately nodded and bent over and lay on the ground to sniff around. When he sniffed, countless tiny spots of light gathered towards his nose from all directions, allowing him to quickly distinguish which breath the female warrior needed.
"Found it!" The short subordinate's eyes lit up and pointed in the direction of the mountain, "He went there."
"What?" The warriors of the Li tribe were all surprised. Did the person who stole the divine fruit enter the life restricted area?
"Miss, what should we do? Should we chase him?" a subordinate asked carefully.
The female warrior said with an ugly face: "The range of one thousand steps outside the life forbidden zone is full of dangers. It seems that he has entered that range and is likely to be killed by the things inside! But I won't let him go so easily. This damn thing actually stole the divine fruit of our Li tribe. I want to make him live a life worse than death!"
After that, the female warrior led the subordinates to approach the life forbidden zone. However, they did not dare to enter the dangerous area of one thousand steps outside the forbidden zone. They just patrolled the periphery, hoping to find the thief who stole the divine fruit.
Zhang Jun didn't know that the people of the Li tribe were looking for him at this moment. He was desperately collecting divine medicine at this moment. One hundred plants, one thousand plants, ten thousand plants. When the 50,000th spiritual medicine was sent into the Hunyuan Secret Realm, he suddenly stopped and began to look at the mountains not far ahead with curiosity.
"The power that suppresses everything seems to come from the depths of the mountain. What is there in it? Even its periphery grows so many divine medicines, so what about the mountain? Will there be holy medicine?" He suddenly had a strong curiosity and wanted to go into the mountain to see.
"No! My cultivation is too low. I can't enter the life forbidden zone before I have the strength of Daluo level!" He immediately shook his head and suppressed the urge to enter the mountain.
But then he thought again: "Generally, only places where people beyond the realm of Manifestation have practiced can produce divine medicines. Or places where the laws of the great way converge can have the opportunity to produce divine medicines. And there are obviously no laws of the great way emerging here, which means that there have been people above the level of Manifestation who have practiced here?"
"No!" He shook his head again and again, "The entire periphery of the mountain is full of divine medicines. Whose cave can cover such a large area?"
Thinking of this, he was shocked and opened his Buddha's eyes without hesitation to look into the depths of the mountain. The moment the Buddha's eyes opened, he saw that the entire mountain range itself was a huge skeleton that stretched for thousands of miles, and it released a terrifying pressure. The rest of the place was foggy and could not be seen clearly at all.
Just as he was about to observe in depth, he suddenly saw a red fog rising from the mountain range, rushing towards him at an incredibly fast speed, and instantly reached a hundred meters away.
"Oops!" All the hairs on his body stood up, he screamed and ran away. His life potential was fully released, and he covered the distance of several thousand meters in a flash, and he was almost pounced by the red mist in the process.
"Damn, what is that?" He stared at the mountain with lingering fear, his face pale.
"Little thief, kneel down!" Suddenly, he heard an angry shout from behind. Turning around, he saw a group of Li tribe warriors approaching. The first one was a female warrior, with a protruding front and a curved back. Even among humans, she would be very hot, but her face was really ugly, like a horse's face.
The female warrior stopped ten steps in front of Zhang Jun and stared at him coldly, as if she was looking at a dead person.
"Little thief, did you steal the magic fruit of my Li tribe?" She asked in a gloomy voice.
Zhang Jun took a look at the Yuanqi fruit tree. The roots of the fruit tree extended all the way to the depths of the mountain. No wonder it could grow so huge, it must have been nourished by the mountain. He suspected that the entire mountain range was the remains of some prehistoric giant life form, and the extraordinary energy in its remains gave birth to these magical medicines. But what kind of creature could be so huge? And it seemed that the prehistoric life form was at least a Daluo-level existence, right? No, it might even have surpassed the Daluo realm! Otherwise, how could it form a life forbidden zone?
The above thoughts flashed through his mind, but now was not the time to think about them. He had to deal with the Li tribe warriors in front of him. He sneered and said with his mind: "What a joke, this Yuanqi fruit tree was born and raised by nature, not planted by you. I can pick it if I want. What do you care?"
"Kill!"
A Li tribe warrior shouted angrily, swinging his giant axe and slashing at him viciously. Zhang Jun did not move his feet, raised his hand and grabbed the opponent's giant axe in his palm with a "ding" sound, then snatched it and swung it back.
"Puff!"
The big man was split in half by his axe, and his internal organs flowed out. He was dead and could not die. The Li tribe warriors were furious and rushed over with strange cries. Especially the female warrior, the scimitar in her hand released a palpitating breath, and he did not dare to take it head-on.
Zhang Jun did not dare to be careless. After killing two more warriors, he turned around and ran. His speed was so fast that he gradually distanced himself from most of the Li tribe warriors. In the end, only the woman was still hanging behind him not too far away, chasing him with gritted teeth.
