Chapter 1765: Ancient Cave, The King of Immortal Herbs (Part 2)

Such a sight was everywhere in the ancient cave.

Immediately, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes brightened. His figure flashed, and he quickly approached the precious green fruit.

“Boom——!”

But just as he reached out to pluck the green flame fruit, the ground beneath him suddenly trembled.

Blue flames of crystal-like light erupted, surrounding Jiang Chengxuan.

Even the void was sizzling and distorting under the intense heat.

However, to Jiang Chengxuan, this was hardly a threat.

Facing the flames that could incinerate immortals, Jiang Chengxuan didn’t react. Instead, he focused his immortal energy, forming an invisible barrier around his body.

This thin layer of immortal power acted as a vast chasm. When the ferocious blue flames collided with it, they merely trembled and dissipated like fireworks.

Without hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan reached past the flames and directly grasped the green flame fruit.

“Boom! Boom!”

The fruit, resembling glass, emitted a radiant glow, like a heated brand. It exuded terrifying heat, attempting to burn Jiang Chengxuan alive.

“Crack!”

But under the suppression of absolute strength, Jiang Chengxuan merely twisted his arm and plucked the fruit from its branch.

Immediately, the firestorm that was spreading ceased, vanishing without a trace after a few twists.

This was one of the green flame fruit’s defensive hunting methods. In history, many greedy immortals had perished due to this.

But in the hands of Jiang Chengxuan, a late-stage Xuanxian, it was destined to be ineffective.

“Not bad, there seems to be many more immortal herbs around here. Heh…”

As Jiang Chengxuan stored the green flame fruit in his storage ring, his gaze sharpened, and a smile spread across his face.

Just moments ago, when the green flame fruit triggered a fiery blaze, Jiang Chengxuan’s keen senses picked up several other disturbances in the forest.

Clearly, these were the energies of other immortal beasts and herbs in the area, disturbed by the commotion.

They hadn’t expected that even the smallest energy fluctuation would be detected by Jiang Chengxuan’s sharp perception.

Recalling what he had sensed, Jiang Chengxuan quickly deduced the locations of about a dozen other disturbances.

Each of these places had different types of immortal herbs, and right now, Jiang Chengxuan was particularly interested in these medicinal plants.

Earlier, he had sent out dozens of heavenly-grade immortal pills to appease the various sects in the Desolate Star Domain, and now his stock was nearly depleted.

Spending some time on these herbs was not a problem for him at all.

Rather than being cautious around others, it felt like the right moment to seize the treasure hidden within this mountain!

“Let’s go!”

Without hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan used his immortal power to transform into a stream of light and shot into the towering mountains.

In an instant, he seemed like a tiger among a flock of sheep, beginning a great harvest within this mountain range.

One by one, immortal herbs were discovered, and Jiang Chengxuan subdued them with lightning speed, all within just a few breaths!

During this process, the power unleashed by the herbs would disturb other plants, which in turn gave Jiang Chengxuan even more targets.

For a time, he was bustling with activity in the Ancient Golden Immortal Cave, collecting various precious immortal herbs infused with immortal energy.

Such a concentrated abundance of herbs was rare even in the ancient realms!

As he darted around the mountains, Jiang Chengxuan speculated that this entire range might have been specifically cultivated by the owner of the Ancient Golden Immortal Cave—this place could be a natural herbal garden!

The discovery of several array remnants between the mountain ranges further validated his hypothesis.

“A King of Immortal Herbs!”

At one point, after traversing countless mountain ranges and collecting numerous herbs, Jiang Chengxuan found himself on a cliff, where he let out a cry of surprise.

A King of Immortal Herbs! This wasn’t the name of a specific herb, but rather a classification for the most powerful and rare of immortal plants!

Legend had it that in places where the best herbs gathered, a King of Immortal Herbs might emerge.

This plant would absorb the energy emanating from the surrounding herbs, becoming the most precious and powerful of them all!

Right before Jiang Chengxuan, nestled in the jagged cliff, was a vibrant immortal vine, its glowing colors radiating a captivating life force.

The vine looked like a jade dragon, alive and coiling through the void, exuding immense majesty, suppressing the surrounding space.

“Roar——!”

As Jiang Chengxuan entered its domain, the vine let out a dragon’s roar, summoning countless secretive, twisting tendrils to attack him like divine whips!

The vine’s formidable energy was nearly on par with a late-stage Xuanxian. Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t afford to underestimate it.

“Primordial Chaos Sword Scripture, activate!”

He swiftly formed seals with his hands, and in an instant, countless golden symbols appeared, scattered throughout the surrounding space.

Jiang Chengxuan focused his mind, and the golden symbols gathered into golden scissors, which emitted sharp, cutting edges as they directly sliced through the jade vines!

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. The golden scissors were incredibly sharp, avoiding the attacks of the vines and precisely severing them in the middle.

In a flash, the sky was filled with falling vines, like a strange jade rain, while golden light flickered, ripping apart the space!

But even so, subduing this King of Immortal Herbs was impossible.

This vine had been nurtured by the energies of countless surrounding plants, making it incredibly powerful, comparable to a late-stage Xuanxian.

The attack was merely a warning to Jiang Chengxuan.

The next moment, as Jiang Chengxuan closed in, the dragon-shaped vine surged with even more terrifying immortal power!

Thus, in this mountain range, two late-stage Xuanxians clashed.

The vine displayed a variety of strange abilities, manipulating the forces of heaven and earth as it suppressed Jiang Chengxuan.

Jiang Chengxuan also unleashed his full abilities, treating this battle as his first real combat since breaking through to late-stage Xuanxian, constantly honing his divine powers and immortal treasures!

The entire mountain range was filled with booming sounds, the earth trembled, and immense energies erupted, shaking the space around them.

“Primordial Chaos Sword, slash!”

Finally, after a fierce battle, Jiang Chengxuan summoned the Primordial Chaos Sword, transforming the light sword into a thousand-meter-long blade, shifting it from rigid to flexible, and using its softness to counter the vine’s hardness.

The sword’s edge became like a flowing river, weaving through the sea of jade vines, trapping them tightly.

Then, Jiang Chengxuan aimed at its vital core, inscribing a seal using the Primordial Chaos Scripture to trap the vine in his Xuan realm!

“The King of Immortal Herbs! Truly powerful!”

Exhaling deeply, Jiang Chengxuan muttered to himself, his excitement evident. Even with his vast experience, this was the first time he had encountered such a rare and powerful herb.

After the battle, he simply inhaled the power emanating from the dragon-shaped vine, and it helped him recover a bit of his immortal energy. The vine’s power was truly remarkable.

With this King of Immortal Herbs, Jiang Chengxuan could easily create Xuanxian-level pills in the future, which was a huge surprise.

[Ding!]

However, at that moment, an icy voice suddenly echoed in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind, causing him to shudder and his eyes to grow serious.

The system had issued a sudden mission:

[Please achieve the achievement of repelling an assault by cultivators of the same level!]
