Chapter 151 Chance Meeting
Long Ming looked at Liu Jiang with a bitter smile. " Brother Liu, I am really sorry. Due to me, You got to the bad side of Qin Chen and the Imperial Family of the Holy Qilin Empire."
" That's alright, Brother Long." Liu Jiang nodded. " Our Liu Family isn't that weak either. Besides, Qin Chen alone can't decide the? intent of the Imperial Family."
" Is that so?" Long Ming sighed. " That damned bastard. His eyes were on the Returning Spring Sword Art and Flowing Energy Art all along. What a black hearted bastard."
" Brother Liu, We should part now. Let's meet at the dueling place tomorrow."
" Indeed, Brother
" To think Qin Chen would go this far. Hah, I guess the Imperial Family of Holy Qilin Empire finally going to act against Four Seasons Valley, huh?" Mu Qinglian's voice was cold as she walked away from the place.
" I guess our enemies are gathering in Central Zone." Long Ming chuckled. " Why not just turn around and run away?"
" You want me to back down from the duel?" Mu Qinglian looked at Long Ming.
" Qin Chen is extremely confident in his ability. Maybe he is carrying an Imperial grade treasure or something like that? Something that even gives him the ability to defeat even Harmonization Realm cultivators."
" Imperial Family of Holy Qilin Empire isn't weak at all. So, Qin Chen might be carrying numerous treasures." Mu Qinglian nodded. " However, It's not like I am without any preparation either."
" Master gave me some means to defend myself. With those, I think I can defeat him."
" So, Master favored you yet there is nothing for me, huh?" Long Ming smiled bitterly.
" I am sure you probably have some tricks up to your sleeve too. Don't act like you are a weak chicken." Mu Qinglian snorted.
" Anyway, Since we are here, We should visit a secret place in Herbal Sanctuary." Long Ming spoke mysteriously.
" A secret place?" Mu Qinglian was startled. But since Long Ming was speaking with such certainty, she didn't doubt him at all.
Long Ming used his Heavenly Revelation Eyes to scan his surroundings. Sure enough, he noticed some hidden spies, who were lurking around them and watching their moves.
' It might not be Qin Chen only. More than a few groups are spying on us. Such annoyance.' Long Ming snorted inwardly, informing Mu Qinglian about them.
" Heh, They must be using some high grade Concealment Talismans. Even I didn't notice their aura." Mu Qinglian almost pulled out her Frozen Flower. Yet, Long Ming stopped her.
" No need. It will make them more wary of us." Long Ming smiled. " Let's just escape. I am sure they won't be able to catch us."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLong Ming's Raging Storm Wigs appeared behind him as it turned invisible. Using the Rushing Lightning Steps with the Raging Storm Wings, Long Ming suddenly felt the power of Wind and Lightning coursing through his body,
" Here I go!"
*BOOM BOOM*
Long Ming turned into a flash of lightning, disappearing from his spot. Only a brief moment he vanished, and the booming sound of wind and lightning echoed, marking the awe of his speed.
Mu Qinglian was also astonished when she saw Long Ming's speed. Autumn wind swirled around her as she also jumped, following Long Ming as she flew away.
' What kind of treasure is he using? Or is that a technique?' Mu Qinglian was shocked as even she was using a considerable amount of her true qi.
' With his speed, I can think even Harmonization Realm cultivators without any agility techniques would find him a headache. He is truly filled with mysteries.'
Taking some detours, Long Ming and Mu Qinglian reached a nearby mountain peak, and they immediately concealed their aura.
Long Ming simply used his Nether Dragon Void Devouring Physique's concealment and his aura vanished.
" This mountain peak is barren here. I can't see even a hundred year old medicinal herb." Mu Qinglian gave a casual remark.
However, Long Ming was using his Heavenly Revelation Eyes, trying to sense the anomaly in that mountain peak.
" Hmm, There are seven Red Birch Trees around us. However, that fifth Red Birch Tree…It's a Red Spirit Wood tree." Long Ming mumbled. " This is…A large formation of Fire and Wood attribute."
Using Senior Bu's memories, Long Ming knew there was supposed to be a cottage here that would guide them to a special place filled with lots of ancient and precious medicinal herbs.
However, He couldn't see any entrance at all. But he did sense a large formation sealing the entire area. And such an array formation, even a Formation Emperor would find headache to crack.
" Sister Mu, There is a large ancient array formation here. Even with my abilities, I am not sure if I could crack this."
" Is that so?" Mu Qinglian frowned. " Is this array formation dangerous? You don't need to risk it if you are unsure."
Long Ming smiled when he saw Mu Qinglian was actually caring for him. With a thoughtful expression, he shook his head.
" No, I don't want to go back empty handed. There must be a way."
Long Ming used his Heavenly Revelation Eyes and scanned the entire area. He wanted to find the energy vein of the formation and disrupt it, making the formation shut down.
But he realized that the formation was drawing power directly from the underground spirit vein. So, he can't shut it at all, unless he destroys the underground spirit vein.
' Wait a second…Why must I destroy it?'
A sudden thought appeared in Long Ming's heart as he was startled. He just wanted to enter the secret space with Mu Qinglian. If he can't stop the formation from working entirely, he can at least create a small hole to crawl in, right?
Using an error or a bug in the system to enter inside, he could totally try that method.
Taking out his Treasured Jade Brush, Long Ming hurried to the Red Spirit Wood tree.
He circulated the Soaring Water Moon Art as Intent of Water gushed into the brush, making a blue colored ink appear on the nib. With swift movements, Long Ming started to carve runes on the trunk of the tree.
" Water grows the Wood and extinguishes the fire. Since I can't directly apply water on the fire because the fire rune is too strong, I can make the wood grow,
" After all, a green trunk with full of life and vitality can disrupt the flame, if not completely extinguish it."
Suddenly, blue colored runic chains bloomed on the Red Spirit Wood, as if water running in the veins of the tree. The tree grew as its leaves became more and more green.
Suddenly, Long Ming's Heavenly Revelation Eyes caught a shift of space, as a small crack in formation appeared. His treasured brush splashed in the air, making several runic chains and shooting them at the crack.
" Sister Mu, I have opened a small crack! Look, We can see a fraction of cottage through it." Long Ming exclaimed.
" You are really a genius." Mu Qinglian was also surprised. But since Long Ming succeeded, she and Long Ming swiftly entered the gap, reaching the cottage.
The moment Long Ming and Mu Qinglian opened the cottage, they felt the space around them shifting.
" This…Where are we?"
Long Ming looked around him with confusion. He felt like he was standing on the same peak. Yet, everything appeared to be different now.
" That… Is that a Hundred Thousand Year Old Purple Flame Grass?" Mu Qinglian was shocked as she pointed at a herb with trembling hands.
" And such a rich blood aura… That's a Three Transformation Blood Xuan Turtle! Why such a beast is here?"
" A Two Hundred Thousand Year old Cloud Cordyceps, A Three Hundred Thousand Year old Soaring Phoenix Flower… What the fuck…"
Even Long Ming was dumbfounded when he saw the herbs. Each of the herbs can simply plung the sects into chaos. And this many herbs? Even the entire Eastern Province might get swept with battles.
However, as Long Ming and Mu Qinglian were looking at their surroundings with greed and awe, a voice boomed.
" Who awakened me from the slumber? Who trespassed the Herbal Sanctuary?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe voice was so oppressive that even Mu Qinglian fell on her knees. Yet, Long Ming's Desolate Immortal Aura and Nether Dragon Void Devouring Physique managed to stop it, making him look unaffected.
" Interesting. I never thought a puny cultivator would be able to stand before me…Huh? Wait, Why can't I see your cultivation?"
The voice carried a hint of surprise, as light particles gathered before Long Ming and Mu Qinglian, forming into the shape of an elder.
" Who are you? How did you enter the Great Soul Illusion Formation?" The elder asked. " No…The formation isn't broken yet. There is a…crack. I see…"
" Elder, I am Long Ming, the True Disciple of Four Seasons Valley. And she is Mu Qinglian, Saintess of Four Seasons Valley. We are both the disciples of the current Sect master."
" What? True Disciple and Saintess? Of my sect?"
Mu Qinglian felt the suppressive aura vanishing from her body as she slowly got up. The light figure looked at them with mixed emotions, of joy and sorrow, along with a lot of guilt.
" I see… How many years it has been since I woke up? That cursed thing really ruined everything. But at least we sealed it in Azure Sun Realm."
" How is the situation of the sect now? What is our current ranking in Rain Dragon Chart?"
While Long Ming was confused, Mu Qinglian sighed bitterly. " Elder, Our place is… at 88th."
" What?! WHAT?!" The elder was shocked. " 88th? Even if we got affected by that cursed bastard, even if our sect declined, we should be in at least the top twenty, right?"
" Esteemed Elder, After the calamity…"
As the elder heard about all the things that happened after the calamity of Four Seasons Valley, he was visibly shocked.
" Haha… Wheel of Time is really cruel huh? To think Empress Hong's words came true in the end." The elder sighed.
" But what about you, elder? Who are you and…"
" Let me introduce myself."? The figure became a mode distinct and solid.
" I am Hao Tianci, the Supreme Elder of the Disciplinary Department. As what happened back then, Let me tell you."

Meanwhile, the poor humble daoist put down his quill, looking at the newly written scroll with a thoughtful expression. The lack of tokens of appreciation like castles, bothered him a bit.
' Hmm, Since Long Ming is talking about error and bug, should I make him wear a monocle out of nowhere?'
