Apart from them, there were also those from Huangzhou Prefecture’s Hongjian Sect, Zhong Liang, and Chunxiang Pavilion’s Ding Ying, and all their followers had been annihilated.

Lastly, there was that Loose Cultivator—the Demon Granny from Jianghu. In the end, only she and her dim-witted henchman remained. You should know that this time, she had brought nearly a hundred people, and now only the two of them were left alive, a truly tragic outcome.

When everyone met, they exchanged glances, their faces filled with wariness. At this point, everyone had reached the most critical moment.

The area in front of them was the very heart of the Medicine King Treasure—the Medicine Garden.

This was their destination for coming here, where all sorts of rare herbs were planted, herbs that were exceedingly rare outside were readily available here.

But this was also the place where conflicts were most prone to arise, so everyone watched each other warily, afraid that the others might make a move.

After a long mutual gaze, Zhao Ya said, ”Gentlemen, since you have traveled from afar, you must be here to seize the Medicine King Treasure, which is the herbs in this Medicine Garden.”

”Having come all this way, I presume none of you wishes to return empty-handed. Why not put aside our grievances for now?”

”Everyone, pick a Medicine Garden to harvest. Once the harvesting is finished and we have left the Medicine King Treasure area, we can then fight to the death and determine the victor. How does that sound?”

Upon hearing what Zhao Ya said, the rest looked at each other and felt she made sense.

So they asked, ”Then how shall we divide it?”

After hearing this, Zhao Ya said, ”You guys choose first.”

Ba Tan responded to this, ”Alright, we select the Water Garden.”

Both Yu Man’er and Nan Batian under his command were of Cold Ice Attribute, and cold ice is an extension of water, hence his proposal to enter the Water Garden.

After hearing this, Yu Mei Zi said, ”Gold Hall, I choose the Gold Hall.”

Ding Ying then said, ”We’ll take the Earth Hall.”

Upon hearing this, Demon Granny announced, ”I, I will also enter the Earth Hall.”

Then Zhao Ya said, ”Very well, I will enter the Fire Institute, so everyone can proceed to harvest the herbs in their respective Grass Gardens.”

”Regardless of any grudges in Jianghu, let’s all settle them after we leave the Medicine King Treasure. Does that sound good?”

”Sounds good, we’ll do as you say.”

After hearing this, the crowd responded loudly and turned to head for their respective Medicine Gardens.

At this moment, Chen Jie looked at Zhao Ya and said, ”Commandery Princess, I am of Wood Attribute, so I will not enter the Fire Institute with you. I will go to the Muzi Courtyard.”

After hearing this, Zhao Ya asked, ”Hmm, can Mr. Chen open the Muzi Courtyard?”

Chen Jie said, ”Certainly!”

Zhao Ya immediately beamed with joy, ”Haha, Mr. Chen is indeed my lucky star. Now that one more courtyard is opened, we can get more herbs. Ah San, Ah Er, accompany Brother Jiu Si to the Wood Attribute Garden, the rest, follow me to the Fire Institute.”

Saying this, the two groups split up.

Chen Jie arrived at a grand gateway emblazoned with the word ’Wood,’ placed his hands on it, and then a powerful force acted upon his hands. Chen Jie suddenly urged the Chang Chun Technique into action, and a dazzling wood attribute Gang Qi burst forth, pushing the gates open.

Ah San, seeing this, exclaimed, ”Awesome, Brother Jiu Si, what Martial Arts is this that could generate such pure wood attribute Spiritual Energy?”

Ah Er said, ”Cut the chatter and get in.”

The three stepped into the courtyard. As they entered, they were all taken aback because the scene inside was quite different from what they had imagined. There was not the thriving beauty they expected but rather a scene of devastation, with ruined walls and a few scattered herbs here and there, as well as a littering of corpses.

Each corpse bore various wounds, their flesh rotted away, leaving only a pile of bones and the remnants of their unrotted clothes, suggesting that a great calamity had once occurred here.

However, that calamity had ended with the victory of the Undying Bird Han Miaozhen.

That bout of looting had resulted in the complete desolation of the Medicine Garden, but there were still some that had escaped unscathed.

Ah Er glanced around and said, ”It’s all down to luck now.”

Upon hearing this, Ah San and Chen Jie looked at Ah Er, nodded, and then the group began searching the courtyard.

The Medicine Garden was nearly leveled, but in some places, they were able to find some herbs. And Chen Jie, having nothing better to do, started rummaging through the corpses.

To his surprise, he actually made some unexpected discoveries.

He stumbled upon two secret manuals, both of which were quite remarkable.

One was ”Six Harmonies Force,” a very powerful mental method fitting for use in the Holding Core Realm.

The other was a broadly applicable Saber Technique called ”Seven-section Saber,”

also suitable for a Holding Core Realm martial artist.

Ah San saw Chen Jie looking through these things and remarked, ”What’s the use? Such rubbish Cultivation Techniques aren’t promising.”

Chen Jie chuckled and said, ”My family business is large, and the little brothers in my hands need real skills; all I can do is collect some Jianghu Cultivation Techniques for the little brothers to learn.”

Upon hearing this, Ah San shrugged and said, ”Being a boss means having to worry about everything, I won’t bother you anymore.”

Chen Jie smiled, continued searching the corpses, and casually gathered some medicinal herbs. Soon enough, he found quite a few treasures. While going through a skeleton, with a crack, an item that was neither iron nor wood fell out from its waist: a Waist Token.

On the front of the Waist Token was written: Dan Room

On the back was written: Eastern Azure Dragon Wood.

What on earth was this?

Chen Jie was puzzled.

Meanwhile, in the other Medicine Gardens,

a few people had similarly stumbled upon tokens just like this one.

In the Water Garden, Ba Tan picked up a token from the ground: Southern Vermilion Bird Bings and Dings.

Not far away, Nan Batian also spotted a similar token. He picked it up and saw written on it: Northern Xuanwu Ren Kui Water.

Nan Batian looked around and discreetly pocketed it, his eyes darting about, fearful of being seen.

At that moment, Yu Man’er came up and patted Nan Batian’s back, ”What are you doing?”

”No, nothing.”

Nan Batian was startled but said no more.

Similarly, in the Gold Hall, Yu Mei Zi found a token: Western White Tiger Geng Xin Gold.

In the Earth Hall, Demon Granny found one: Central Yellow Dragon Earth.

Now, the five of them all looked at the tokens in their hands, completely confused, what exactly was this?

While everyone was pondering, they suddenly looked up to see a tall building within the Five Elements Court, with two big characters inscribed: Dan Room!
