Myriad Daos of the Heaven

Before anyone could understand what Jiang Jichen was doing, they saw him blasting away the boulders blocking the path with punch after punch.

Then, the black Giant Serpent’s tail was exposed. He grabbed hold of it and pulled with all his might.

BOOM!

The mountain trembled and countless boulders flew into the air. When Luoo Long and Wei Xiaohao saw this, their expressions changed drastically, and they immediately retreated as fast as they could.

Sure enough, the moment they fell back, the spot where they had been standing was instantly buried under a sea of boulders.

And by this time, Jiang Jichen was already dragging the Giant Serpent out, having torn the mountainside asunder!

What kind of power was this?

A Body Refiner could be this savage? He was even stronger than the legends claimed!

Luoo Long and Wei Xiaohao gasped in shock.

Luoo Long himself possessed the Barbaric Spirit Body and was known for his physical strength, but in the face of Jiang Jichen’s raw power, he felt his own Barbaric Spirit Body was complete trash.

"A Tier Ten Profound Serpent is a treasure from head to tail. We can’t let it go to waste. We’re having nourishing snake soup tonight. Wei Xiaohao, you’re on cooking duty!"

Jiang Jichen’s wild voice called out.

Wei Xiaohao’s expression changed. "I don’t know how to make snake soup!"

Jiang Jichen’s indifferent voice drifted over. "Then what good are you? Fine, you don’t have to cook. Just process the carcass, skin it, and cut the meat into chunks. I’ll do the cooking!"

In the end, Jiang Jichen didn’t force the issue, just making Wei Xiaohao do the manual labor.

However, this was a land of swirling poisonous mist, with nowhere to even set foot.

But just then, Jiang Jichen took out another Treasure Medicine Map and began to examine it closely.

This Treasure Medicine Map had, of course, been taken from Guo Qilin.

During the previous battle, Jiang Jichen had casually pilfered the Storage Bags of his opponents, and Guo Qilin’s in particular was unbelievably wealthy.

It contained five stalks of Treasure Medicine and one of Ancient Medicine!

And that was to say nothing of the pills used by Spirit Cultivators.

He looked at the Treasure Medicine Map and found that it also marked the location of a Pure Land Spiritual Land. Although the Spirit Medicine there was gone, it would be a suitable place to rest.

Not far from their current location was a Pure Land Spiritual Land where an Ancient Treasure Medicine had already been harvested.

Indeed, the Treasure Medicine Map also marked their current location—the spot where the Spiritual Snake Fruit grew. Too bad for its previous owner, it now belonged to Jiang Jichen. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

On this map, only one location within the Poisonous Mist Peak Forest was marked for Treasure Medicine—the Spiritual Snake Fruit’s location. The rest had all been harvested.

For now, the map’s only use was to find a place to rest.

"Let’s go. We’ll have a big meal tonight before setting out again!"

Though he had faced perilous danger, narrowly escaping death and paying a heavy price, his gains had been immense. Not only had his cultivation undergone a major breakthrough, but he had also acquired a great number of Storage Bags. As a result, he was in an excellent mood.

Jiang Jichen tossed the Giant Serpent into his High-Level Storage Bag.

The space inside Cang Songzi’s High-Level Storage Bag was immense, more than large enough to hold the Giant Serpent.

When Wei Xiaohao saw Jiang Jichen’s High-Level Storage Bag, his heart skipped a beat!

He recognized the symbol on it—the mark of the Cang Family.

Generally speaking, only Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivators could afford to use a High-Level Storage Bag.

As a young master of the Wei Family, Wei Xiaohao naturally knew about Cang Songzi of the Cang Family being killed in the Celestial Pearl Small Country. The killer had yet to be found, and the incident had become a source of profound humiliation for the Cang Family.

’And yet, Jiang Jichen has a High-Level Storage Bag that only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator of the Cang Family should possess. He’s clearly just a Loose Cultivator... If I just find out where he’s from, and it turns out to be the Celestial Pearl Country...’

A chill ran down Wei Xiaohao’s spine, and he didn’t dare to let his thoughts go any further!

Jiang Jichen, walking ahead and leading the way, naturally didn’t see Wei Xiaohao’s expression, but it did not escape Yee Youmeng’s notice.

Soon, the group arrived at a giant mountain. On its face was a small cave entrance, so inconspicuous that one could easily miss it if not looking carefully. The area was remote, and few people would ever find their way here.

"So the Pure Land Spiritual Land is hidden inside a mountain cave. How marvelous!"

Jiang Jichen exclaimed, then was the first to pass through the entrance and into the mountain’s interior.

Only then did he discover that the entrance was actually layered with Restrictions that sealed out the poisonous mist, yet allowed living beings to pass through unaffected.

’This must be a cave abode left behind from ancient times!’

Legend said that this place was once an exquisitely beautiful forest of peaks, where Spiritual Mist, not poisonous mist, drifted through the air.

Many powerful experts from ancient times had carved out cave abodes here to cultivate. As ages passed and the world changed, it eventually became what it was today. Only the cave abodes left over from ancient times remained untainted by the poisonous mist.

As the four of them entered the cave abode, they couldn’t help but let out a collective sigh of amazement!

The cavern within the mountain was simply enormous; it was as if the entire mountain had been hollowed out.

Furthermore, the scenery inside resembled a miniature landscape of lakes and mountains, breathtakingly beautiful. The air was fresh and rippling with Spiritual Qi.

After walking for so long through the poison-filled peak forest, suddenly arriving in a place like this felt like stepping into a hidden paradise.

Everyone’s spirits lifted even higher. Jiang Jichen took out the Giant Serpent, which lay piled up like a small mountain.

Then he gave an order: "Little Youmeng, skin it!"

Originally, Jiang Jichen had intended to make Wei Xiaohao do it, but since he was in a good mood, he didn’t call on him. He knew that if he left the skinning and butchering to Wei Xiaohao, it would take forever.

Yee Youmeng didn’t move immediately. Instead, she just stared at Jiang Jichen coldly.

Her meaning was clear: ’By what right do you order me around?’

Jiang Jichen glared. "Get to it. I’m the boss here. Besides, who was it that disobeyed me just now and insisted on rushing out to cause trouble? Didn’t you know you could have been killed?"

Hearing Jiang Jichen’s rebuke, she knew that it was rooted more in concern and care than in anger.

But Yee Youmeng just stomped her foot in a huff, revealing a flash of supreme, girlish charm that left the three men staring, dumbfounded.

Then, Yee Youmeng dragged her giant blade over to the serpent’s body. She lifted the large machete and brandished it in a blur of flashing light, moving with incredible speed.

In Yee Youmeng’s hands, the incredibly heavy large machete seemed as light as a dagger. Her movements were as smooth and graceful as flowing water, imbued with a stark beauty.

In the span of just a hundred breaths, the huge, black snakeskin was peeled off in one complete piece.

"Wei Xiaohao, if you ever dare to run away again, I’ll have Little Youmeng do the same to you and peel off all your skin!"

Jiang Jichen said coldly to Wei Xiaohao.

Hearing this, Wei Xiaohao trembled, his legs growing so weak he almost collapsed to his knees.

The scene had truly terrified him. Yee Youmeng’s Saber Technique was too frightening; she wielded that thick, heavy machete as nimbly as if it were a razor blade.

After saying his piece, Jiang Jichen said no more. He took out a Large Cauldron, added some water from a Spiritual Spring, and tossed in several stalks of Spirit Medicine. Although these Spirit Medicines couldn’t compare to Treasure Medicines, they were still incredibly precious and hard to find.

Next, he cut off a fifth of each stalk of Treasure Medicine and tossed all the pieces into the Large Cauldron at once.

At this point, the Spirit Medicines in the cauldron alone were so precious that even a Young Master from one of the Seven Great Families like Wei Xiaohao couldn’t help but stare with red-eyed envy, his breathing growing ragged.
