Chapter 2012: Two Body-Tempering Semi-Immortal Herbs, Gathering Intelligence, The Most Dangerous Mission

Jun Xiaoyao came to the deepest part of the Antique Garden.

And this ancient land, like the Taiji Yin-Yang diagram, was clearly divided into two regions.

Only, the black and white of the Taiji were different.

One region was a blood-red crimson.

The other region was purple fertile soil.

And in these two regions, there grew two completely different medicinal herbs, yet they seemed to mutually generate and restrain each other.

In that crimson region, there grew a herb like an immortal grass.

Its leaves were like the feathers of a phoenix, brilliantly crimson, flowing with divine radiance, and there was a faint immortal aura swirling.

Around it, it seemed as if the illusory shadow of a divine phoenix circling had manifested, wondrous beyond compare.

And on the other side, the purple region, there grew a purple-gold medicinal herb.

Its leaves were like dragon claws, and the fruit below was like the form of a purple-gold divine dragon, even the scales could be seen, the texture fine and delicate.

Purple aura swirled, exuding a fragrance that refreshed the heart and spleen.

Jun Xiaoyao's astonishment lay here.

For in this Antique Garden, there was not just one semi-immortal herb, but two!

That brilliantly crimson herb, like phoenix feathers, was named Phoenix Immortal Grass.

And that purple-gold dragon-shaped herb was named Purple Gold Dragon Herb.

These two semi-immortal herbs were both rare body-tempering great medicines!

There had been rumors that someone had refined a Phoenix Immortal Grass, and their entire body was surging with phoenix divine flames.

Their flesh was like nirvana, transforming to a whole new level.

And if the Purple Gold Dragon Herb were refined, it could also enable an ordinary cultivator's fleshly body.

To instantly become a powerful body cultivator, capable of close combat with the fiercest beasts.

Moreover, the most special thing was that these two semi-immortal herbs mutually generated and restrained each other.

If taken together, they could still yield special effects and enhancements.

If further combined with the previously obtained Nine-Star Divine Herb...

It was simply unimaginable, what kind of bodily opportunity this was.

Even Jun Xiaoyao, whose vision was quite high, couldn't help but secretly sigh, feeling some delight.

Phoenix Immortal Grass, Purple Gold Dragon Herb—these were both extremely rare semi-immortal herbs.

The owner of this Antique Garden actually managed to collect them all, astonishing.

And they were even planted in the same place.

Was this intended to let these two mutually generating and restraining semi-immortal herbs form some kind of resonance and change?

But no matter what, these now all belonged to Jun Xiaoyao.

He had previously thought of first breaking through his fleshly body to the quasi-emperor realm, enduring the quasi-emperor tribulation, to lay the strongest fleshly foundation.

And Jun Xiaoyao pondered, if he wanted to achieve the quasi-emperor realm in his fleshly body.

Then the number of Sumeru worlds needed would have to reach at least the ten-million level.

This was not something easily accomplished.

But now, with the Phoenix Immortal Grass and Purple Gold Dragon Herb, plus the effect of the Nine-Star Divine Herb.

And also, the true blood of the Void Ancient Beast he had refined earlier, a large portion of which was still stored.

And if his merits this time were sufficient, he could still go to the Hall of Merits to exchange for the Golden Body Secret, the Heaven-Supporting Scripture, and other emperor-level fleshly cultivation methods, for reference.

That way, Jun Xiaoyao's fleshly body would absolutely be able to make tremendous progress in a short time.

Jun Xiaoyao's current fleshly body was already terrifying enough.

If he progressed further, how strong would he become?

If the Sumeru worlds could reach the ten-million level, how terrifying would that be?

If his fleshly body stepped into the quasi-emperor realm, what kind of heaven-defying situation would that be?

Jun Xiaoyao felt anticipation.

By then, he would practically be truly, truly, of the same level, fleshly body unparalleled throughout the ages, no one able to surpass him.

It was estimated that even if his fleshly body reached the quasi-emperor realm, he could tear apart peers of the same level with his bare hands.

If his legal realm were to break through again to the quasi-emperor, then Jun Xiaoyao would truly be profound accumulation leading to sudden eruption, his strength would surge like a gushing well.

Of course, these were all very beautiful prospects.

Jun Xiaoyao came to his senses, he picked the Phoenix Immortal Grass and Purple Gold Dragon Herb, and placed them beside the World Tree in his inner universe.

The World Tree was planted on the Five Elements Vital Soil.

The semi-immortal herbs were also planted on the Five Elements Vital Soil, so their medicinal efficacy would not suffer any loss.

Afterwards, Jun Xiaoyao also swept through the surrounding medicinal herbs.

Finally, he returned to this side of the Pocket Universe.

The silver-armored man's Primordial Spirit remained imprisoned within.

Seeing Jun Xiaoyao arrive, the silver-armored man's Primordial Spirit coldly said: "Who exactly are you?"

Jun Xiaoyao ignored him, instead asking: "You, the Devouring Clan, have manifested in this region—what exactly is your purpose?"

"Could it be just because of this Antique Garden?"

"Hmph, trying to fish for information, daydreaming."

The silver-armored man was very tough.

This was not entirely due to his personality.

The Devouring Clan has a strong sense of clan identity, and it is impossible for them to reveal any information that threatens the clan.

"Not speaking?"

Jun Xiaoyao's eyes flashed with a hint of amusement.

"If you want to kill, then kill. My Devouring Clan has never had one who fears death." The silver-armored man said indifferently.

Jun Xiaoyao smiled and shook his head.

Immediately, he activated the power of his Primordial Spirit.

As if a phantom emerged, pushing a huge blood-stained millstone.

It was none other than the Chaos Divine Mill!

Although Jun Xiaoyao no longer needs to rely on the Chaos Divine Mill to temper his Primordial Spirit now.

But that does not mean the Chaos Divine Mill has lost its power.

Any living being's Primordial Spirit soul, if drawn into the Chaos Divine Mill, will suffer inhuman agony.

That pain is incomparable to physical pain.

It is simply tens of millions of times more painful than death by a thousand cuts!

"You... this is..."

Even the silver-armored man's Primordial Spirit changed color.

He felt the terrifying might within the Chaos Divine Mill.

"Ah..."

In the next moment, a shrill voice rang out—the silver-armored man's Primordial Spirit was drawn into the Chaos Divine Mill and ground to pieces.

But after being crushed, it began to reform.

Then it continued to be ground down.

This endless, intense agony is unbearable even for the Devouring Clan!

Finally, the silver-armored man's Primordial Spirit finally revealed some information.

After hearing this information, Jun Xiaoyao's eyes flashed with a strange light.

This information is very important; it can even be said to be extremely important.

If it had not been discovered by the Border Pacification Army on this side.

Then the Devouring Clan might, as a result, produce another extremely powerful enemy.

And now, Jun Xiaoyao knows this information.

His pupils shifted as he pondered.

If he were to go stop it, this journey would be too dangerous.

No...

It should not be called dangerous; it should be directly called courting death!

This is fundamentally not a task any younger generation could accomplish.

Even the old elders of Dongling Pass could not stop it; they would need to summon a true great figure to act.

But...

If Jun Xiaoyao could accomplish it.

Then the merit he would gain would be unimaginable.

This unimaginable merit is not just slightly greater than his previous merits.

But greater by a hundredfold.

When the time comes, the shock Jun Xiaoyao brings will far surpass this time's slaying of three Bai tribe self-exterminated quasi-emperors, by far too much.

However, the higher the merit, the greater the danger it represents.

Do it, or don't do it!

If it were any other heavenly pride, they would not hesitate, nor would they even attempt it, because this is not a task they could accomplish.

But for Jun Xiaoyao, it is not impossible.

"Why hesitate? My dictionary has no word for fear."

Jun Xiaoyao gave a light smile.

"You... you want to do what? Are you going to..."

The weak silver-armored man's Primordial Spirit revealed an expression of utter astonishment.

This human junior is mad, wanting to go seek death himself?

Jun Xiaoyao's divine sense turned, and he completely annihilated the silver-armored man's Primordial Spirit.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get the tiger's cub?"

"Red Dust Emperor's Son, the outcome of this wager has already been decided from this very moment."

Jun Xiaoyao flicked his sleeve, his figure stepping into the void and departing.

Since he has decided to do it, he now has the firm belief that he will surely succeed.

If he completes this task this time, he will shake the entire Three Emperors' Barrier!
