Chapter 740: Chapter 740: Dragon Pool and Tiger’s Den, What is there to Fear?
"With our hundreds of people marching mightily here, it’s impossible that ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ is unaware, yet they haven’t sent any disciples to harass or intercept us... Do you think that’s normal?"
Long Jingtian gazed at "Myriad Medicines Mountain" in the night and frowned as he spoke.
Mu Xiantian said, "It’s very normal! I think this is because ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ is confident in their strength and simply doesn’t take us seriously!"
Long Jingtian scoffed, "If that’s the case, then they should prepare to be annihilated!"
Sensing the Essence Energy coming from the direction of "Myriad Medicines Mountain," Fang Bai’s eyes flickered uncertainly before he suddenly said to Long Jingtian and Mu Xiantian, "Brother Long, Sect Master Mu, you two lead the others to continue staying in the valley. I’ll go ahead into ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ and scout the situation. At dawn, if you see any commotion within ’Ghost Doctor Valley,’ lead everyone to attack! By then, with our inside-out cooperation, we’ll catch ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ completely off guard!"
Mu Xiantian said with a worried face, "’Ghost Doctor Valley’ has numerous disciples and is full of experts; Senior, going there alone is like entering a lion’s den. If your presence is exposed, it’s very likely that you’ll be besieged by ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ disciples, which would be extremely dangerous!"
Long Jingtian also advised, "That’s right, Brother Fang, you shouldn’t take this risk! Let’s join forces and charge in at daylight, and have a good, fierce battle!"
Fang Bai smiled nonchalantly and said, "What do I have to fear from a dragon’s pool or a tiger’s den? If my presence is exposed, what of it? With those people from ’Ghost Doctor Valley,’ if I want to leave, who could stop me!"
His words were full of domineering arrogance; Long Jingtian and Mu Xiantian looked at each other, speechless.
With Fang Bai’s strength, he indeed had the ability to rampage through ’Ghost Doctor Valley,’ and even if besieged by the disciples of ’Ghost Doctor Valley,’ if he wished to escape, none could stop him.
"Don’t worry, I won’t expose myself easily. Right now, my main goal is to ascertain the distribution of ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ disciples and the terrain of the nearby mountains, so that in the midst of a great battle, if ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ disciples sense that the tide is turning against them, they won’t be able to escape amidst the chaos!"
In truth, this was just an excuse for Fang Bai. His main purpose was to find out exactly what kind of Spiritual Medicines were on "Myriad Medicines Mountain" and to secretly investigate whether there really were Essence Stone Mines within.
"Brother Fang, let me accompany you! In case something happens, we can look out for each other!"
Still somewhat worried about Fang Bai venturing alone into dangerous ground, Long Jingtian spoke eagerly.
Fang Bai shook his head and said, "Two people make a bigger target and are more likely to be exposed! It’s better if I go alone!"
Seeing that Fang Bai was resolute, Long Jingtian and Mu Xiantian dared not persuade further and nodded in agreement, indicating they would do as Fang Bai had said.
Fang Bai glanced at the sky; at this time, there were about two more ’shichen’ until dawn, enough for him to scout around ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ inside and out.
Under the watchful eyes of Long Jingtian and Mu Xiantian, Fang Bai took out a set of black clothes from his Spatial Ring and put them on, then darted towards the distant "Myriad Medicines Mountain."
His movement technique was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was already dozens of meters away. His figure swiftly merged with the darkness of the night. When Long Jingtian and Mu Xiantian looked for him again, they were shocked to find they couldn’t see Fang Bai’s silhouette anymore, nor could they sense the slightest fluctuation of his Essence Energy. It was as if Fang Bai had vanished into thin air.
"Can Senior Fang really become invisible?"
Mu Xiantian watched the direction in which Fang Bai had disappeared, murmuring in amazement.
He was a Heaven Level Martial Artist. In normal circumstances, movements within three or four hundred meters could hardly escape his senses, but Fang Bai had actually disappeared from a spot tens of meters away from him; it was utterly inconceivable.
Had Fang Bai been his opponent and approached him with this mysterious "invisibility" technique and then launched a sudden attack, he would have been caught completely off guard and undoubtedly defeated.
"My Brother Fang has many wonderful aspects to him; he’s simply capable of anything! The more you interact with him, the more you’ll realize how formidable he is!" said Long Jingtian with a sense of pride.
"Brother Long, since we have nothing better to do, why don’t you tell me about Senior Fang?" Mu Xiantian was brimming with interest for Fang Bai, who was powerful yet came from the secular world. He moved closer to Long Jingtian and asked with a smile.
"Alright! Then I’ll begin. Brother Fang practices both medicine and martial arts. Not only is he powerful, but his medical skills are also divine..." Long Jingtian began to tell Mu Xiantian all about Fang Bai’s mysterious and admirable traits, while Fang Bai himself, like a swallow skimming low over the ground, traversed through the thick night and arrived near "Myriad Medicines Mountain" at the edge of Ghost Doctor Valley.
Myriad Medicines Mountain, bountiful with Spiritual Medicine, was proclaimed as the "Immortal Mountain" of the Hidden Sect World. The founding ancestor of Ghost Doctor Valley had seized this "Immortal Mountain" and began a sect in a nearby valley, rapidly rising in power by depending on the various Spiritual Medicines from Myriad Medicines Mountain.
Myriad Medicines Mountain was both a "sacred place" in the hearts of the disciples of Ghost Doctor Valley and a "forbidden land" where one could not tread lightly. Without the Sect Master’s command, no disciple was allowed to ascend the mountain to pick Spiritual Medicines; to do so would result in severe punishment by the valley’s rules.
The Spiritual Medicines on Myriad Medicines Mountain greatly assisted in Martial Artists’ cultivation, inevitably attracting the covetous eyes of some Loose Cultivator Martial Artists and disciples from other sects, some even daring to sneak into Myriad Medicines Mountain to harvest the Spiritual Medicines.
Should Ghost Doctor Valley capture these external invaders, they would be killed without exception, showing no mercy.
To prevent the harvesting of Spiritual Medicines by outsiders, Ghost Doctor Valley established multiple checkpoints throughout Myriad Medicines Mountain, ensuring tight security that made it nearly impossible for even a fly to get near.
At this moment, with the night past its peak, the disciples guarding Myriad Medicines Mountain were somewhat relaxed in their vigilance. Some sat chatting in wooden shacks built among the Spiritual Medicines, while others simply dozed off.
And just then, a shadowy figure, like a gentle breeze, slipped past the eyes of one Ghost Doctor Valley disciple after another and bypassed the layers of checkpoints, appearing among the clusters of Spiritual Medicines atop Myriad Medicines Mountain.
This shadow was naturally Fang Bai.
As Fang Bai flitted along the way, he exerted his movement technique to its limit and concealed his essence energy, blending almost entirely with the night sky and the land. Not to mention the strongest disciple guarding Myriad Medicines Mountain, who was merely an Earth Level Perfection Martial Artist—even if the Valley Master Li Ao were present, he would not be able to detect Fang Bai.
Fang Bai weaved through rows of Spiritual Medicines, finding them both wild and cultivated, with the majority of them being around two to three hundred years old, much like Wu Caiyun and Zhao Yuhe had described.
Fang Bai himself wasn’t very interested in these young Spiritual Medicines, but once Ghost Doctor Valley was taken down and the time came to distribute the medicines, he wouldn’t be shy to claim what was his.
These low-grade Spiritual Medicines could be taken to the secular world to create various medicinal concoctions and beauty products, which would be perfect to give to friends and family for personal use, or to sell for profit.
