"A holy medicine?" Luo Tian's eyes lit up.

To break through to the next realm, he needed several types of holy medicine.

Currently, there was one at Yaochi waiting for him to retrieve.

Other than that, there was no sign of any other holy medicine.

So, hearing this, Luo Tian immediately became interested.

"Good, tell me! As long as you aren't lying, we are even, and I will let you leave!" Luo Tian said.

"Is that true?" Hearing this, the middle-aged man's face showed joy.

"Nonsense!" Luo Tian said coldly.

Seeing that Luo Tian seemed a bit annoyed, he didn't dare to delay and hurriedly said, "What I obtained is only a piece of news! Rumor has it that there are signs of a holy medicine manifesting within the Moon Wheel Kingdom of the Central Plains! Some have deduced that within half a month, a holy medicine will appear, and it will be an ownerless holy medicine!"

"Moon Wheel Kingdom?" Luo Tian frowned slightly.

The middle-aged man realized instantly, took paper and pen from the side, and drew a map for Luo Tian.

"The place where the holy medicine appears should be near here! I originally planned to go there and try my luck when I returned to the Central Plains this time, but I didn't expect..." He scratched his head awkwardly.

Now that he had told Luo Tian this news, he naturally couldn't go.

There was no other reason; this middle-aged man never wanted to have any interaction with Luo Tian again.

Moreover, Luo Tian's strength was likely that of a legendary human immortal.

If a human immortal had his eyes on a holy medicine, did anyone else have the qualifications to compete?

Absolutely not!

"Good, I accept it. You may go." Luo Tian said.

"Thank you, Lord Luo Tian..." The middle-aged man turned to leave.

"Wait!" Luo Tian spoke again.

At this, the middle-aged man couldn't hold on anymore and said, "Lord Luo Tian, are you going back on your word?"

Luo Tian glanced at him and said, "Naturally not! I want you to take a message to your Temple Master!"

"My lord, please speak!" The middle-aged man let out a long breath and bowed.

"The immortal artifact inside the Heavenly Dragon Burial Ground does not have the ability to reverse the operation of the world! Therefore, it is impossible to use this thing to stop the Nine Extinction Catastrophe," Luo Tian said.

"This..." Hearing this, the middle-aged man's face turned gloomy.

As a member of the Tianyuan Temple, he naturally knew the legend of that immortal artifact.

Many people in the Tianyuan Temple placed their hope of resisting the Nine Extinction Catastrophe on that immortal artifact.

Hearing Luo Tian's words now naturally made it hard for him to accept.

On the other side, Luo Tian continued, "Even if your Tianyuan Temple is the leader of the righteous path in the Central Plains and the main force resisting the Nine Extinction Catastrophe, that is no reason for you to dare to bully my Bianbei City!"

"When Bai Langtian brought that greenhorn to offend my Bianbei City, I already gave you face! I didn't expect you to dare to come a second time! I killed these two; you can take their corpses back, and by the way, tell your Temple Master that if he wants to fight, I will accompany him!"

The words were resonant, leaving the middle-aged man stunned.

After a long pause, he cupped his hands again and said, "I will definitely deliver this message!"

After speaking, he took the corpses of the two men and turned to leave.

Of course, the weapons and spatial rings of those two guys had all been looted by Luo Tian's men.

"Holy medicine..."

After sending the other party away, Luo Tian looked at the map in his hand, lost in thought.

The map showed the Central Plains; after hesitating for a moment, he entered the secret realm again to find Bing Ling.

After all, she came from the Central Plains and should know more about the information up there.

When Luo Tian told her the whole story, Bing Ling was noncommittal.

But when Luo Tian placed the map in front of her, Bing Ling trembled all over, as if struck by lightning.

"Hmm? What's wrong with you?" Luo Tian noticed her abnormality and asked with concern.

Bing Ling looked at the map, hesitated for a long time, then slowly closed it and said, "The news should be true."

"Hmm? How are you sure?" Luo Tian asked curiously.

Bing Ling gritted her teeth and said, "Do you remember me telling you about my former sect?"

Luo Tian nodded.

He knew that Bing Ling was once a primordial spirit of a large sect in the Central Plains.

It was only to seal the demons that she had to stay in the Mount Sumeru secret realm.

Now that she said this, Luo Tian realized, "Could this holy medicine..."

Bing Ling nodded through gritted teeth, "The description of this holy medicine should be one that originally belonged to my sect! And this Moon Wheel Kingdom is not far from my sect..."

Luo Tian understood instantly.

It seems this holy medicine had a thousand threads of connection with Bing Ling's original sect.

"I want to take a trip to the Central Plains to find this holy medicine, you..." Luo Tian looked at Bing Ling.

He knew that ever since Bing Ling left Mount Sumeru, she could have returned to the Central Plains to find her original sect long ago.

However, for these past days, she had always used the excuse of healing or recovering her energy to avoid going.

Partly because the treatment in Bianbei City was indeed good.

But more importantly, it was because Bing Ling was somewhat afraid in her heart.

After all, she had been at Mount Sumeru for so many years, and no one from her sect had ever visited her.

She worried that she had been betrayed.

Or perhaps there was something even more terrifying that she was unwilling to face.

So, only now did Luo Tian tentatively ask her.

After a long silence, as if having made up her mind, Bing Ling took a deep breath and said, "I will go with you! I know the most about that holy medicine; if I go, I will definitely be able to help you obtain it!"

"Really? Are you okay with that?" Luo Tian looked at her and said with some worry.

Bing Ling gave a bitter smile and said, "What could be the problem? One has to face it eventually."

Luo Tian nodded and said, "That's true, then pack up, and we will set off immediately."

Bing Ling agreed and turned to leave.

Luo Tian stood in the secret realm, turned his head to look at the little Heavenly Dragon still sleeping on his shoulder, and dug out a large piece of Primordial Chaos Soil, grabbed a large handful of Profound Yellow Qi as the little guy's rations, and placed them in his spatial ring.

After that, just in case, Luo Tian simply took out the Hundred Ghost Map and hung it directly on the gate of Bianbei City before stepping into the teleportation array with Bing Ling.

Very quickly, space shifted, and in an instant, the two of them arrived at a completely unfamiliar city.

*Whoosh! *

At this moment, Bing Ling's figure shifted, transforming into a woman of normal human size.

"You..." Luo Tian turned to look at her.

"To avoid attracting attention; if people discover I am a primordial spirit, it will be too much trouble," Bing Ling said.

Luo Tian thought about it and felt it made sense.

Given the preciousness of a primordial spirit, if people knew Bing Ling was one, wouldn't the whole city explode?

Just as the two were talking.

"Hmm? Young Master, please stay!" A voice came from behind them.
