Chapter 940: Chapter 940: Predecessors’ Hard Work!

Led by Aza, Zhou Yu and the other two headed deeper into Medicine King Valley.

Soon, they arrived at the valley’s deepest part.

As soon as they reached this area, a flash of astonishment crossed Zhou Yu’s eyes.

The valley’s deepest area was barren, devoid of any vegetation, with only five dilapidated stone houses standing in desolation.

At first glance, it seemed like this place had been abandoned for a long time.

However, when Zhou Yu used his Divine Sense to examine the area, he found that it could not detect these stone houses at all.

What did this signify?

It meant that the stone houses were surrounded by a Formation, and this Formation’s level was even higher than the valley’s protective array.

Aza stopped about a hundred meters from the stone houses, took out a string of beads, and traced a few motions in front of the Formation.

A moment later, a silver-white Light Gate suddenly appeared before Aza.

She put away the beads and excitedly waved at Zhou Yu and Yun Feifei, saying:

"Alright, we can go in now."

Zhou Yu and Yun Feifei quickly stepped forward and followed Aza inside.

With Aza leading the way, the three of them entered the central stone house.

Aza slapped the wall beside her.

The door to the stone house slowly opened.

In the instant it opened, a dense wave of Spiritual Power surged forward, enveloping them.

Zhou Yu suddenly felt as though he were intoxicated, overwhelmed by the richness of the atmosphere.

An uncontrollable excitement ignited in Zhou Yu’s heart.

No wonder Yu Fengtian managed to break through to the Qi Refining Saint Realm here. Only Spiritual Power as concentrated as this could meet the requirements for such a breakthrough.

By this time, Aza had already stepped into the stone house.

Zhou Yu and Yun Feifei followed closely behind her.

Upon entering the stone house, Zhou Yu was surprised to find that the interior held nothing but cobwebs, completely barren except for a corner where there was an entrance leading downward via a spiraling stone staircase.

Aza gave Zhou Yu a sweet smile and said:

"Zhou Yu-ge, this way."

Over the course of their journey, the relationship between the two had grown closer, and Aza’s way of addressing Zhou Yu had unconsciously changed.

Zhou Yu didn’t think much of this, but Yun Feifei’s eyes flickered with a complex expression.

The complexity reflected in her gaze contained jealousy mixed with melancholy.

Descending three or four levels down the staircase, they soon arrived at a roughly thirty-square-meter underground chamber.

As Zhou Yu caught sight of the chamber, an extreme shock flared across his face.

The chamber was exceedingly simple, no different from the stone houses above.

However, at the chamber’s center stood a well-like structure, from which dense Spiritual Energy seeped and pulsed, resembling the bubbling of a spring.

The Spiritual Energy that had surged outwards outside was emitting from this exact location.

The concentration of Spiritual Energy surrounding the well had reached an unimaginable degree.

The Spiritual Energy was so concentrated that it had solidified into liquid, pooling on the ground nearby.

"This place is...?"

Zhou Yu asked in disbelief.

Aza chuckled mischievously.

"Zhou Yu-ge, let me explain it to you."

"This is the treasure vault of Medicine King Valley."

"As you saw earlier, there are five stone houses here, but originally, there were only four. They were meant to store the various Spiritual Medicines cultivated by Medicine King Valley over the centuries."

"Later, the ancestors of Medicine King Valley discovered that no matter how Spiritual Medicines were stored, their properties would invariably dissipate over time."

"To prevent this loss of medicinal potency, the ancestors of Medicine King Valley dedicated decades of effort to designing an intricate Spirit Gathering Array, which collected all the medicinal properties that would otherwise evaporate."

"For this purpose, they built an additional stone house, the very one we’re standing in right now."

"Over hundreds of years, the medicinal potency from countless Spiritual Medicines accumulated here, gradually transforming it into what we see today."

As Aza recounted the history, Zhou Yu’s eyes brimmed with deep reverence and astonishment.

On one hand, he marveled at the ingenuity of the ancestors of Medicine King Valley. It was incredible that, through human effort alone, they had created a treasure comparable to a natural spiritual spring, a phenomenon that typically required thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

On the other hand, he was awestruck by Medicine King Valley’s ability to cultivate Spiritual Medicines. The sheer quantity of medicines needed to amass such concentrated Spiritual Energy was staggering, and it was no wonder external forces coveted Medicine King Valley.

If outsiders were to learn of this treasure vault’s existence, their greed-driven aggression would intensify exponentially.

Aza noticed Zhou Yu’s utterly awestruck expression and grew even more excited herself.

However, her exhilaration appeared to subside as something else crossed her mind.

"Zhou Yu-ge, there’s one thing I need to remind you about."

Returning to his senses, Zhou Yu asked:

"What is it?"
