Chapter 77: Sophistry

~7 min read 1,345 words

"Now is not the time, wait until the evening to strengthen it!"

He Pingsheng put away the gourd, then closed the array, and neatly put away the array materials.

Afterwards, he rode the paper crane and flew up into the sky, flying away from the side of the mountain valley water pool!

No purpose.

He Pingsheng flew away aimlessly.

However, he firmly remembered the position where he discovered the 【Tiger-Striped Golden Bee】, and after about half an hour, he finally saw a landmark.

"Here, it should be Thousand-Pillar Mountain!"

He Pingsheng, sitting on the paper crane, looked at a huge mountain range under his feet and muttered to himself.

Thousand-Pillar Mountain, the mountain has a thousand peaks standing, each mountain peak stands like a pillar between heaven and earth, looking at it at a glance, it is spectacular.

This is a strange sight in the Mystic Realm.

It only exists as a geographical landmark to identify the direction, and there are no treasures near this Thousand-Pillar Mountain.

He Pingsheng took out a pen and simply sketched on the paper, recording the approximate position of the Tiger-Striped Golden Bee in the direction of Thousand-Pillar Mountain, then turned the paper crane and flew all the way north.

About five hundred miles north from Thousand-Pillar Mountain is the core area of this Mystic Realm.

The core of the Mystic Realm is a huge lake, and in the middle of the lake is a small island.

Around the small island, a kind of extremely magical heaven and earth treasure grows in the water, called: Water Origin Spirit Apricot.

According to Xu Kunlun and Zhao Linger, this thing is the best choice for Qi Refining stage disciples to break through bottlenecks.

He Pingsheng knew his own weight, understood his own talent, and it was certain that he would encounter bottlenecks in the future, so he was definitely determined to get this thing.

The paper crane flew for less than half a stick of incense before arriving directly above a mountain valley.

Looking down from a high place, He Pingsheng found a piece of crimson vegetation in this mountain valley.

"This is..."

He Pingsheng was shocked and his body trembled.

He recognized this thing even if it turned to ash: Blazing Sun Flower.

He hadn't spent a short time dealing with this thing back then!

"Down!"

While speaking, He Pingsheng didn't hesitate to drive the paper crane down and landed in this mountain valley.

Blazing Sun Flower is a second-tier spiritual herb, and its pollen can be ground into a high price.

Seeing it, naturally, he couldn't miss it.

In the deep valley sandwiched between two mountains, there was a scorching atmosphere.

Beside the place where the Blazing Sun Flower grew, the earth seemed to have cracked a mouth, from which fire-attribute power kept gushing out.

He Pingsheng walked to the side, tilted his head and took a look, only to see that the earth crack was crimson, dazzling people's eyes.

"No wonder Blazing Sun Flowers can grow here!" He Pingsheng understood in his heart: It turns out it's because there is ground fire exposed, otherwise, Blazing Sun Flowers would absolutely not be able to appear here!

He turned his head and took a look, finding that the area of the Blazing Sun Flowers was very large.

Distributed along the earth crack, the number of Blazing Sun Flowers was more than ten times that seen in the Spirit Medicine Valley back then.

In many flowers, pollen was piled up.

It was just the right time to collect.

As a senior flower picker, He Pingsheng immediately took out his tools and started collecting Blazing Sun Flower pollen.

The Blazing Sun Flowers here not only had high pollen yield but also high quality.

Actually reached mid-tier.

However, He Pingsheng had no obsession with quality.

Low-tier is fine too!

After all, this thing can be put into the Treasure Gathering Basin to strengthen.

After about two hours, He Pingsheng had collected fourteen bottles of pollen.

According to the price given by the chamber of commerce in the Matou Mountain market before, a mid-tier Blazing Sun Flower was three hundred spirit stones per bottle.

These fourteen bottles were more than four thousand.

Rich, rich!

He Pingsheng was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth: Wait until he uses the Treasure Gathering Basin to strengthen it, and then wait for the quality to drop to mid-tier to sell, that would be a full eight thousand spirit stones!

Just when He Pingsheng was full of joy, a paper crane suddenly swept across the sky.

He Pingsheng's brows furrowed slightly, and he subconsciously waved his hand, putting away all the collected pollen.

At this time, the paper crane whooshed and landed on the ground.

Two cultivators came down from above.

A man and a woman, both wearing deep purple Daoist robes.

On the cuffs of the Daoist robes, a 【Zhuang】 character was embroidered.

Two divine senses swept over He Pingsheng without any politeness.

"Damn it..." The man looked gloomy and said: "Didn't expect it to be picked by someone..."

The woman looked extremely serious, her eyes staring at He Pingsheng like cold ice.

Since the other party was not polite, He Pingsheng naturally wouldn't be polite either; he also swept his divine sense over.

The cultivation bases of the two were quite surprising to him.

The woman was at the tenth layer of Qi Refining, and the man was at the eleventh layer of Qi Refining.

Too much higher than him.

Seeing the other party's cultivation base, He Pingsheng communicated his divine sense to the storage bag for the first time.

In the storage bag, the 【Stubborn Stone Talisman】 had been quietly transferred to his hand.

Once the other party made a move, he could activate the defense for the first time.

First be invincible, then find an opportunity to counterattack.

After killing the Black Wind brothers, now facing this kind of scene, although He Pingsheng was still heart-pounding and nervous to the extreme, he wouldn't be as flustered as before.

"This junior brother, are you a disciple of Tai Xu Men?" The man took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, cupped his hands toward He Pingsheng, and said: "I am a disciple of the 【Zhuang Family】 of Jiyu Mountain, a cultivation family!"

"That's right!" He Pingsheng took three steps back and said: "I am a disciple of Tai Xu Men!"

"Junior brother!" The man said: "The Blazing Sun Flower pollen here has all been collected by junior brother!"

"But junior brother doesn't know, the Blazing Sun Flowers here were planted by my Zhuang family's predecessors thirty years ago!"

"That's right!" The woman behind stepped forward and slightly raised the precious sword in her hand toward He Pingsheng, saying: "Junior brother doesn't know, sixty years ago, my Zhuang family disciples discovered that this place where ground fire is exposed is suitable for Blazing Sun Flowers to grow, but at that time they didn't bring Blazing Sun Flower seeds, so thirty years ago when the Mystic Realm opened, my Zhuang family planted Blazing Sun Flowers here!"

"Intended to come and pick them before this Mystic Realm opened, didn't expect to be intercepted by junior brother!"

"Junior brother, the things here belong to my Zhuang family!"

"Please return the collected pollen to us!"

"Considering junior brother's hard work, you can leave one bottle!"

"However..." The woman said again: "To avoid junior brother hiding things, you also need to hand over the treasure bag for us to check!"

"Don't worry, we only check Blazing Sun Flower pollen, we won't touch anything else even if it's good!"

While speaking, this man and woman unfolded their figures, suddenly acted, and blocked He Pingsheng.

One on the left, one on the right.

Fearing that He Pingsheng would suddenly run away.

He Pingsheng indeed couldn't suddenly run away.

Because to run away, either use a paper crane or use the 【

But these two items both require a few breaths of time to activate.

He simply does not have that time.
