Chapter 884

~6 min read 1,008 words

Kuang Long gathered everyone to continue the journey and warned Su Chen not to run around again.

On the way forward, Su Chen smelled the scent of medicinal powder that attracts magical beasts again.

But Kuang Long and the others were completely unaware. He had to find a way to wipe away this powder, or magical beasts would come to cause trouble soon.

Su Chen pretended to be exhausted and quietly left behind medicinal powder to mask the scent at the back of the team.

This way, the magical beasts would not be able to find their tracks.

"Big Brother, this seems to be the smoothest time we've entered the Milin Mountain Range. If it were before, we would have encountered magical beasts by now."

Kuang Long was also confused; this time it was indeed a bit too smooth.

Only Su Chen knew that this was all his own credit.

The day's journey ended, and since there was no place to stay, they had to set up tents.

Seeing that it was getting late, Su Chen prepared to set off for Da Qiao and Er Qiao's side.

"Big Brother Kuang Long, let Big Brother Kuang Hu take me along for patrol tonight!"

Kuang Long looked at Su Chen in disbelief; the day's journey was so tiring, yet this kid still had energy.

Seeing Su Chen's abundant energy, Kuang Long let Kuang Hu take Su Chen to patrol.

Su Chen then quickly changed his clothes and hurried toward the cave where Da Qiao was.

Su Chen arrived at the cave and found no signs of entry or exit, which proved they were safe.

Su Chen entered the cave, and the people inside were all practicing to heal their wounds.

Seeing Su Chen arrive, the others hurried over to welcome him.

Just as Su Chen was about to take everyone away, the steward pulled Su Chen to the deepest part of the cave.

What met his eyes was a corpse, which looked like it had been dead for a long time.

Only a skeleton remained, but golden light was emanating from beneath the body.

"Yesterday, when you brought us into the cave, you were in a hurry, and I later discovered this skeleton here."

Su Chen went over and also found that this skeleton was very strange; it seemed to be protecting something before it died.

Just as Su Chen was about to touch the object flashing with golden light under the corpse, he was stopped by the steward.

"Young hero, looking at the appearance of this person's clothes, it doesn't look like they died peacefully. I'm afraid there might be traps; let's try with something else first!"

The steward was indeed a man of experience and considered things very thoroughly.

Su Chen had everyone step back, then took out a throwing dart and shot it at the skeleton.

The moment the dart touched the skeleton, dozens of silver needles flew out from the stone wall nearby.

Fortunately, Su Chen was prepared and used his energy to form a protective shield, surrounding everyone.

After waiting for the mechanism to finish, Su Chen came out and went under the skeleton to retrieve the object emitting the golden light.

It turned out to be a golden key. This key had been here for so long without corroding; it seemed to be a good item.

Su Chen moved his gaze away from the key and stopped on the box nearby. Was this key for opening this box?

Holding a try-it-out mentality, Su Chen inserted the key into the black box.

Su Chen turned the key, and the box opened.

Inside the box was a blueprint and a pot of flowers.

Just as Su Chen was puzzled, the steward's face showed joy.

"This is the Heart-Breaking Flower!"

Su Chen had not been in the Qi cultivation world for long and was not very familiar with various medicinal herbs and plants.

"This kid is short-sighted; I ask the master to enlighten me on what the Heart-Breaking Flower is."

"This is my first time seeing it too. I heard that this flower has long been extinct. It is a plant that grows in extremely cold places, growing for a thousand years and blooming in ten thousand..."

"I heard that this flower has extremely strong medicinal properties. If you grind this flower into powder, even if you have broken hands or feet, as long as you use it as medicine, you can reattach them."

Seeing the steward being so serious, Su Chen believed him.

Just as Su Chen was about to reach out and touch it, he didn't expect the steward to stop him.

"Hero, don't be in a hurry. Listen to me finish. Look, seeds have already grown under this flower. If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid it's about to mature."

"And this flower is only suitable for growing in extremely cold places. Just now when you opened the box, I felt a hint of coldness. This box should have freezing properties. If you want to take the Heart-Breaking Flower, I suggest you take the box along with it."

"When the seeds mature, you can continue to harvest them and continue to cultivate them. This kind of medicinal material is probably a rare treasure that money can't buy!"

Su Chen's gaze turned to the blueprint nearby; Su Chen originally wanted to open it to look.

But there were many people here, and he was afraid it wouldn't be convenient, so Su Chen put it away.

Su Chen put away the Heart-Breaking Flower along with the box.

Now Su Chen had to find a way to send Da Qiao, Er Qiao, and the others to the outermost edge of the Milin Mountain Range.

On the outskirts, there were forces from Milin City, so they could get help.

Qiao Shan, who was in a coma, had not yet woken up. Su Chen went over to take a look and then helped him up.

Afterward, Su Chen pried open his eyes to look and then took Qiao Shan's pulse.
