Chapter 127: Elder Han: Finally Found You!

With one of the Seven Ancient Poisons—the centipede—clearing the way, almost no fierce bird or savage beast could withstand Fang Yu for even a moment.

The lairs of these fierce birds and savage beasts often held some wondrous spiritual herbs as well.

For instance, in the snake cave of the old serpent Fang Yu had just slain, there grew a rare treasure called the Jade Serpent Orchid.

Fang Yu's magic power spread into the snake cave, and in an instant, he seized the Jade Serpent Orchid out of the void.

One could see three palm-tall strange plants in total, each crystalline and translucent, snow-white as jade, looking at a glance like three little white serpents, with a few white jade leaves hanging from them.

The three plants were very peculiar, with faint specks of radiance flowing across them, and a wafting fragrance drifting on the breeze.

This was the Jade Serpent Orchid.

Around a great poisonous serpent, no spiritual grass could survive—only one peculiar orchid could endure. Absorbing essence together with the old serpent as it breathed in the radiance of sun and moon, and after a full hundred years of spiritual energy's baptism, it would condense a great amount of sun-and-moon radiance, forming a strange plant imbued with over a century's worth, hence the name Jade Serpent Orchid.

It possessed extraordinary detoxifying properties, which indeed fit the rule that beside poisonous insects there must always be a detoxifying spiritual herb.

Of course, this spiritual herb, having breathed in the essence of sun and moon alongside the old serpent, had condensed a great amount of life essence—truly a cultivator's favorite.

A single Jade Serpent Orchid like this could rival several dozen vials of Hundred Grass Liquid.

Fang Yu held the Jade Serpent Orchid suspended in the air, his expression perfectly calm.

"Still not enough. On this outing of ours, merely obtaining the Jade Serpent Orchid is pointless—we must obtain some fire-attribute rare treasures."

Fang Yu's divine sense flowed, and in an instant he saw deeper into the ruins, where there seemed to be a Fire-Wing Ox, in whose cave-dwelling grew several fire-attribute plants.

"This is what I want."

Fang Yu did not advance, but from his Seven Sha Gourd seven flying swords flew out. The Seven Kill Sword Array empowered these seven flying swords, and in the blink of an eye the swords vanished without a trace.

The Fire-Wing Ox was in its cave-dwelling eating a savage beast when it suddenly sensed a lethal crisis. Just as it was about to let out a furious roar, the seven flying swords enveloped it and twisted in one motion, and this fearsome overlord of the deep ruins split apart across its whole body, dying an unnatural death.

Immediately after, the seven flying swords unleashed a terrifying devouring force, bringing the Fire-Wing Ox along with the several fire-attribute plants from its cave-dwelling back with them.

"Let me treat you all to some beef."

Seeing the Fire-Wing Ox arrive, Fang Yu circulated the Jasper Flame Seven-Repair Radiance, which transformed into a ball of flame, and right there he began roasting the Fire-Wing Ox.

"This… Brother Fang is actually a Sword Immortal too?"

"Too terrifying—slaying a savage beast's head from how many li away. I really envy that."

Ye Fan and Pang Bo watched, dumbfounded. Earlier, having seen Fang Yu deploy the Gold-Devouring Centipede, they had assumed Fang Yu was from some sorcery-and-gu family, some barbaric Men Sect. But now, seeing those flying swords shoot out, their eyes immediately lit up.

Wasn't this exactly the Sword Immortal they had dreamed of being as children? And here they had actually encountered one.

What was this Brother Fang's true background? They couldn't make heads or tails of it.

But by now the beef was already being roasted, so Ye Fan and Pang Bo simply stopped thinking about such things.

Both men were in high spirits and began the process of eating beef.

"What kind of savage beast is this? One bite and you feel full?"

Pang Bo took a bite of beef and immediately felt his body brimming with essence, no longer feeling the slightest hunger.

As for Ye Fan, he was a bit better off and ate several more bites, but soon his breathing grew rapid, his face flushed like blood, his skin fresh red, and then specks of radiance rippled out from his body's surface.

He had begun cultivating once again.

Fang Yu also sent bite after bite of beef into his mouth, and after refining it, he felt a powerful energy added within his body.

This Fire-Wing Ox was no pushover—in fact, it was an overlord of the deep ruins. But encountering a sword array empowered by a treasure artifact, it lost its life in an instant.

Its meat could absolutely rival a rare treasure like the Jade Serpent Orchid.

Fang Yu ate the Fire-Wing Ox while using his magic power to refine those several fire-attribute rare treasures. The fire-attribute rare treasures from the Fire-Wing Ox's cave-dwelling were all aged treasures, containing immensely powerful fire-attribute essence.

Fang Yu circulated the Jasper Flame Seven-Repair Radiance and began refining the rare treasures one by one, his magic power also surging upward at tremendous speed at this moment.

Originally his cultivation base had already reached the strength of three hundred and twenty Xuanhuang Stallions. After refining these rare treasures, his power instantly rose to the strength of three hundred and thirty Xuanhuang Stallions.

The strength of three hundred and forty Xuanhuang Stallions.
