#993 - Methods and tests

"This... is this Qilin rice?!"

Huangfu Yuan is a spiritual plant master himself, and his understanding of spiritual plants is better than Chen Mo in some aspects.

Although Qilin rice has become extinct, it is recorded in various versions of the "Spiritual Plant Atlas". This is a kind of spiritual rice with rice stalks that resemble Qilin horns. After it matures, peel off the rice husk, and the spiritual rice inside will appear milky white and translucent.

And this fifth-level spiritual plant is also a main ingredient for refining Xuanxin Yangshen Pill!

Huangfu Yuan's face was solemn, and the Qilin rice in front of her made her feel vaguely bad.

Qilin rice is planted inside Shennong Sect, which means that they can refine Xuanxin Yangshen Pill, but they have been keeping this secret for thousands or even tens of thousands of years?

Even if they choose to endure it, the Shennong Sect should also benefit from it.

But judging from the situation over the years, they don't seem to be getting stronger...

Why? !

Huangfu Yuan thought about it, but still used the Immortal Hoe to dig up a few plants and prepared to take them back for research.

The fifth-level spiritual rice Qilin rice has appeared, so what other spiritual plants will there be if we go deeper?

She stood up, her consciousness passed through the darkness, and then stopped under a thundercloud. After a little contemplation, Huangfu Yuan walked forward quickly and stopped in front of the thundercloud in a moment.

There is obviously a spiritual field ahead.

But this place has been set up with a formation. Judging from the aura revealed by the formation, it is either a killing formation or an attack formation. Unless she can see through the illusion and find the eye of the formation in a short time, once she breaks in, it will inevitably cause a commotion, thus attracting the attention of Nong Xiuyuan and others.

However, the secret of Shennong Sect may be right in front of her, and she is unwilling to leave like this.

"Does the guard know what is planted in the forbidden area?" Huangfu Yuan hesitated for a while, and she still took out the Yin-Yang sound transmission tube and contacted Chen Mo who had been waiting for a long time in Zhongzhou.

"How is it? What did you find?"

Although they didn't know what Huangfu Yuan would do, the two sides had agreed that the day the new head of Shennong Sect took over would be the day she would take action.

So Chen Mo had already concealed his breath and hid himself, waiting near the outskirts of Shennong Sect.

"Not to mention the natural treasures, they also planted Qilin rice..."

"What did you say?!"

Although they were thousands of miles apart, Chen Mo was no less surprised than the other party just now.

"Let's not talk about this for now." Time was tight, so he had to pick out the most important things to do. "I found a formation in the forbidden area of ​​Shennong Sect. I suspect there are other unknown spiritual plants planted inside the formation."

"What should I do now? I'll go find you?" Chen Mo almost blurted out.

"It should be difficult for you to get in. You must have the handwritten order of the headmaster to enter the forbidden area. If it's just Nong Xiuyuan or Bai Chutong, then everything is fine. I'm afraid that after forcing in, I will attract the existence that I really can't afford to offend."

Huangfu Yuan was a little worried.

"Then what do you need me to do?" Chen Mo asked.

He knows some illusions, but he hasn't reached the level of perfection, and Yi Tingsheng has returned to Huanyue Xianzong. Otherwise, if he came with him, there wouldn't be so many problems and troubles.

"I'm going to force my way in and give it a try."

"Don't do that!"

"Why? If we miss this opportunity, we won't be able to get in!"

"Don't you have a handwritten decree? We can find a chance to lure Bai Chutong away and then come back to investigate."

Huangfu Yuan replied, "It's impossible. This handwritten decree was written before she became the headmaster. When she officially takes over, these will be useless!"

Outside Shennong Sect, Chen Mo couldn't help but frown.

If that's the case, it's indeed a thorny problem.

"If there is nothing you want in there, doesn't that mean alerting the enemy? We will never have another chance to enter the forbidden area?"

"But..."

"You withdraw first. Since we already know that there is a secret here, let's make a long-term plan." Chen Mo persuaded. In his opinion, Huangfu Yuan's idea was definitely not a wise choice. "You come out first. The altar is almost over. I have an idea!"

Huangfu Yuan frowned and looked up at the thundercloud in front of him again: "Really? You won't stabilize me first?"

"No! Don't worry, you come out first, but don't go far. I will contact you later."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

The Yin-Yang sound transmission tube was cut off, and Chen Mo stood up from the tree canopy.

Under the [Spirit Eye], everything that happened on the altar was also in his sight. From beginning to end, Nong Xiuyuan did not show any abnormality.

He really was like a headmaster who stepped down after taking on a mission.

Everything happened naturally.

"Seniors, since you are here as guests of Shennong Sect, why don't we show our hospitality? I'll have my men arrange a reception?"

The thunderbolt that enveloped Bai Chutong disappeared.

From this moment on, she truly entered the realm of refining emptiness!

At this moment, Bai Chutong looked the same as before, except that her face was a little more carefree, and her expression added some calmness after becoming the headmaster.

"Congratulations!" Shui Yunqi's face was very ugly.

This Nong Xiuyuan was a person who didn't care about anything, and it was almost impossible to get any news from him.

"It seems we have to say goodbye." Hua Chuxi smiled and looked at the new and old heads.

Just when several refining emptiness were about to leave, another thundercloud suddenly fell from the sky. This time, it was not the altar that struck, but a place thousands of miles away.

Shui Yunqi, Fan Tianming and others turned their heads, their eyes full of surprise.

"This... this breath, there is a feeling of immortality..." Gong Yanyu flew into the air, his eyes had penetrated through layers of barriers and came to thousands of miles away.

At this time, Nong Xiuyuan, who had just passed on the throne, and Bai Chutong, who gradually knew everything, finally changed their faces.

Immediately, they flew to the direction of the forbidden area without saying anything.

"Sure enough, there is a problem! Go!"

Shui Yunqi did not hesitate at all and rushed ahead at a speed far exceeding the two of them.

Then, Fan Tianming, Hua Chuxi and others followed closely behind.

In just a few breaths, they had arrived at the place where the thunder tribulation fell!

Shui Yunqi stopped, and a hundred-foot-high ancient tree appeared in front of him. The crown of the ancient tree was completely destroyed by the thunder tribulation just now, and the branches that seven or eight people hugged were also split from it.

He looked around, and except for this thunder-struck tree, there was nothing unusual around.

After a few more breaths, Gong Yanyu and others also arrived.

Bai Chutong and Nong Xiuyuan also arrived.

They also looked around, and the two Shennong Sect masters returned to their normal state after a moment of confusion.

"It's a pity for this tree. After all, it has grown for thousands of years. If it had not been unable to break the shackles of life, it would probably have been able to practice like humans and monsters, right?" Nong Xiuyuan said indifferently.

"Humph! Goodbye!" Shui Yunqi snorted coldly and left the place angrily. (End of this chapter)
