Cultivating With Mutated Heavenly Spirit Roots-Chapter 65: Wife’s Master

"Very good, then let us depart!" Elder Huang Xiong nodded in satisfaction, then with a wave of his hand, a yellow-skinned gourd flew out from his sleeve.

As soon as the gourd appeared, it began to expand continuously, growing larger and larger until it was big enough to carry over fifty people.

Elder Huang Xiong and Elder Chen Tong were the first to fly onto the gourd. After they had settled, they calmly surveyed the everyone.

The other disciples, seeing this, also followed suit.

Once all the disciples were standing steadily on the gourd, Elder Huang Xiong immediately circulated the spiritual power within his body.

Instantly, a dazzling blue light surged from beneath his feet, quickly enveloping the entire gourd.

This blue light was like a solid shield, protecting the everyone within it.

Immediately after, with a "whoosh," the gourd sped eastward, its speed so astonishing that the disciples on board exclaimed repeatedly.

The wind whistled past their ears, and the scenery on both sides blurred like phantoms, rapidly receding.

"This is the flying speed of a Late Core Formation Stage Cultivator, so fast!" Fang Hong secretly marveled, experiencing this unprecedented velocity.

Elder Huang Xiong’s flying speed was at least dozens of times faster than his own. He couldn’t help but imagine what a exhilarating experience it would be if he, too, could possess such immense spiritual power one day.

As soon as he thought of this, Fang Hong’s heart inevitably surged with excitement, and his resolve on the path of Cultivation became even firmer...

Elder Huang Xiong carried the disciples of the sect, flying eastward all the way, heading towards a certain border between Qin and Zhao State.

They traveled during the day, accelerating their flying speed.

At night, they would stop and find a safe place to rest.

...

Ten days later, everyone from Danxian Valley finally arrived before two towering mountains.

These two towering mountains reached into the clouds, covered with lush, verdant trees, their branches and leaves dense, full of vitality everywhere.

However, the valley between the two mountains was filled with a thick purple mist. This mist completely obscured the valley, making it appear extremely unusual.

Elder Huang Xiong steadily landed the gourd in an open space.

This open space was a safe distance from the purple mist, allowing them to observe the situation in the valley without being threatened by the purple mist.

He pointed at the valley with a serious expression and said, "That is the entrance to Evergreen Blessed Herb Garden, but we cannot enter yet."

"It is enveloped by this purple poisonous mist, which is extremely potent. Even a Nascent Soul Cultivator who rashly enters will be instantly dissolved, leaving no trace of their body!"

Upon hearing this, the Disciples’ faces instantly paled with horror.

Fang Hong was also deeply shocked, his face showing surprise. This purple poisonous mist was actually so powerful that it could even dissolve a Nascent Soul Cultivator!

"Alright, everyone move around nearby, don’t go too far. We’ll enter together once the other sects arrive..." Elder Huang Xiong waved his hand. After speaking, he quietly looked at the valley and said nothing more.

The disciples also dared not disturb him, so they walked around and conversed in low voices.

Fang Hong found a rock, sat on it, and quietly observed everything around him...

After two hours, a buzzing sound came from the sky.

The everyone all looked up, only to see a giant blue sword flying from a distance.

The giant sword shone brightly, surrounded by a layer of blue halo, looking majestic and awe-inspiring.

In the blink of an eye, the giant sword appeared above the everyone, and a group of people emerged from its blade.

Leading them was a black-robed middle-aged man. He was tall, with a stern face, and his aura was no weaker than Elder Huang Xiong’s. He was undoubtedly also a Late Core Formation Stage Cultivator.

The black-robed middle-aged man waved his hand, and the giant blue sword instantly disappeared. He led the fifty disciples behind him to land nearby, then strode forward and exchanged greetings with Elder Huang Xiong.

Fang Hong sat to the side, pricking up his ears to listen to the conversation between the two Grandmasters.

Only then did he learn that the black-robed middle-aged man was named "Gu Fen," and he was the leading Elder of the Beast Taming Sect.

Fang Hong carefully observed the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect. He saw that these disciples were all at the Middle or Late Foundation Establishment Stage, similar in strength to the Danxian Valley disciples.

Elder Chen Tong had mentioned earlier that the lowest Rank of Demonic Beast in Evergreen Blessed Herb Garden was Rank three, comparable to a Middle Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator.

Therefore, each sect could only send Foundation Establishment Stage disciples to successfully gather herbs; sending Qi Refinement Stage disciples would simply be sending them to their deaths.

Not long after the Beast Taming Sect arrived, a blue lotus platform flew from not far away, slowly descending above the everyone.

The lotus platform emitted a soft blue light, each petal appearing lifelike. Fang Hong guessed that this time, it should be the Taiyi Sect people who had arrived... 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

The blue lotus platform steadily landed to the side, its light gradually fading, and a group of people slowly emerged from the blue light.

Leading them was a beautiful woman in a blue robe. She had a delicate face and a cold, aloof temperament in her eyes. She was also a Late Core Formation Stage Cultivator, and fifty disciples followed behind her.

"Su Shan!" Fang Hong’s heart trembled. His gaze was instantly drawn to a blue-clad woman beside the beautiful woman in the blue robe; it was his beloved wife, Su Shan.

Su Shan was dressed in a blue outfit, her figure graceful, and her face still beautiful and moving.

She looked around and also saw Fang Hong in the corner. She first paused slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, then a faint smile appeared on her lips.

That smile was like the warm sun in spring, warming Fang Hong’s heart...

Fang Hong’s mind began to stir. The last time he saw Su Shan was four years ago.

After these years apart, her Cultivation had also improved, reaching the Late Foundation Establishment Stage.

Su Shan was originally a Wood-attribute Heavenly Spiritual Root, inherently possessing exceptional Cultivation Aptitude.

With a Core Formation Stage master to guide her, and with her master’s careful instruction and various Cultivation resources, her progress was still very fast.

To avoid attracting attention, Fang Hong averted his gaze and did not go forward to greet her, pretending not to have seen her. He only silently prayed in his heart for her safety in Evergreen Blessed Herb Garden...

Through the conversation of the three Core Formation Stage Grandmasters, Fang Hong learned that the beautiful woman in the blue robe was named "Ye Yu." It turned out she was Su Shan’s master.

Even Elder Huang Xiong and Elder Gu Fen, the two sect Elders, were very polite to her. After all, she was also a formation Grandmaster, and in the circle of Qin’s Core Formation Stage Cultivators, she was a well-known figure.

The three major Qin Schools—Danxian Valley, Beast Taming Sect, and Taiyi Sect—had all arrived. Only the Zhao State Imperial Family was yet to come.

Fang Hong thought of the country of Zhao State. He didn’t know much about it, only that its relationship with Qin was not very good, and wars often broke out in some border areas.

As for why the relationship was not good, one had to mention the Zhao State Imperial Family.

Zhao State was very different from Qin. There were almost no Cultivation sects within Zhao State’s borders; the entire country was ruled by the Imperial Family.

Beneath the Imperial Family were various vassal kingdoms, Cultivation Family, and so on.

Fang Hong once chatted with Elder Chen Tong, who said that Zhao State was originally called "Qi" and also had many Cultivation sects.

However, a prodigy named "Zhao Wenjun" emerged, who suppressed and subdued the major sects with his powerful Cultivation, eventually establishing Zhao State and ascending to the throne as Emperor...
