Chapter 880: The Looming Crisis, The Danger That May
Editor: Henyee Translations
Following this, Jiang Chengxuan collected the Nine-Colored Sky Lotus.
Together with the Swordgrass he had obtained earlier, his harvest was already quite substantial.
However, he obviously wouldn’t stop there.
He intended to also secure any possible Immortal-grade spiritual herbs that might exist in this area.
Yet, in the time that followed, Jiang Chengxuan was unable to find any trace of such Immortal-grade herbs, even when utilizing the Heavenly Eye of Insights and Heavenly Calculation Technique, which provided no insight whatsoever.
On the contrary, as time passed, he felt increasingly that something was amiss within this natural herb garden.
A shadow seemed to loom over his heart, as if some terrible event was about to occur, prompting a sense of alarm within him.
Especially when he considered the Abyssal Demon he had slain not long ago.
Could it be that this garden was already infiltrated by Abyssal Demons?
Was the supposed Immortal-grade herbs merely a decoy?
At this thought, Jiang Chengxuan’s intuition became even stronger, a sense of crisis like never before suddenly surfaced in his mind.
This made him dare not delay any further, nor could he afford to be careless.
Without another word, he immediately flew towards the exit of the natural herb garden.
He also did not forget to inform Xie Xiangyao, Leng Yuehua, and the others to leave the garden as quickly as possible.
The faster, the better!
Leng Yuehua and Xie Xiangyao, who were leading the search for various spirit medicines within the garden, were slightly startled upon receiving Jiang Chengxuan’s message, puzzled as to why they should suddenly leave.
Wen Yuxiao, a Dao Integration cultivator from Thunderclap Valley, approached Leng Yuehua with confusion.
“Senior Sister Leng, do you know why Brother Jiang is urging us to leave here so urgently?”
Clearly, he had also received Jiang Chengxuan’s message.
Although unsure why Jiang Chengxuan would send such a message, Leng Yuehua, who knew Jiang Chengxuan relatively well, replied to Wen Yuxiao.
“Junior Brother Wen, it seems Junior Brother Jiang has detected some significant danger in this herb garden. It might be a crisis even he finds daunting.
Regardless, since he has warned us, there must be a reason. We should follow his advice and leave quickly.”
Wen Yuxiao hesitated, visibly torn.
The opportunities present were clear to all, and leaving or abandoning them seemed a great waste.
Fortunately, Jiang Chengxuan’s reputation in both the Haoran Sect and Thunderclap Valley was immense.
Especially after his breakthrough to the Dao Integration Realm, even senior Dao Integration Saints like Leng Yuehua and Wen Yuxiao had to take his warnings seriously.
Nodding to Leng Yuehua, Wen Yuxiao agreed:
“If that’s the case, then let’s follow Brother Jiang’s advice and leave this place as quickly as possible.”
Upon hearing this, both Leng Yuehua and Xie Xiangyao breathed a sigh of relief.
They were genuinely concerned that Wen Yuxiao would be unwilling to give up the great opportunity before him and insist on staying.
If something truly dangerous occurred here, it would be difficult to explain to Thunderclap Valley.
Once the decision to leave was made,
Leng Yuehua and Wen Yuxiao did not hesitate to call back everyone who was outside and immediately flew towards the exit of the natural herb garden at the fastest speed.
Although many disciples on the scene didn’t quite understand why they were in such a hurry to leave, given the great opportunity present, none dared to question the decisions of the two Dao Integration Saints.
In no time, Leng Yuehua, Xie Xiangyao, Wen Yuxiao, and their group had covered much of the distance back.
Other cultivators who were still venturing deeper into the garden were surprised and even sneered upon seeing them heading out.
Swoosh!
However, it was at this moment that Jiang Chengxuan’s figure suddenly swept in from afar.
In just the blink of an eye, he appeared beside Leng Yuehua, Xie Xiangyao, and Wen Yuxiao.
“Junior Brother!”
“Junior Brother!”
Seeing Jiang Chengxuan appear, the expressions on the faces of Leng Yuehua, Xie Xiangyao, and Wen Yuxiao all revealed great surprise.
Jiang Chengxuan nodded at them.
“Let’s hurry. If I’m not mistaken, a great crisis may erupt here soon.”
Hearing his words, Leng Yuehua, Xie Xiangyao, and the others showed shocked expressions.
A great crisis was about to erupt here?
What in the heavens was happening?
However, at this moment, Jiang Chengxuan didn’t have enough time to explain everything. Instead, he urged them to leave quickly.
At the same time, he didn’t forget about the others, sharing the potential danger with everyone he could inform.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
As the group’s flight sped through the air, Jiang Chengxuan found their pace still too slow and thus decided to have Leng Yuehua and Wen Yuxiao, along with the rest of the cultivators, fly together to increase their speed.
Finally, with the three leading the flight, they quickly approached the exit of the natural herb garden.
However, the guardian spirit they initially encountered still loomed at the entrance, unchallenged by the cultivators who had entered after them.
“We can’t leave unless we deal with it,” Leng Yuehua stated, her gaze fixed on the guardian spirit that slowly turned its eyes towards them, her expression grave.
“No need to worry. I’ll handle this one,” Jiang Chengxuan said, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
The next moment, an imperial shadow flashed behind him momentarily.
Demon Suppressing Fist Technique.
Boom!
Instantly, a punch as majestic as the blazing sun burst forth from Jiang Chengxuan’s hands, striking towards the guardian spirit.
At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan felt an extremely special power merge into his punch, unexpectedly elevating its might to a higher realm.
In a blink, it broke through the barrier to reach Dao Fusion.
This shocked him.
A seemingly casual strike from him had reached Dao Fusion.
What did this mean?
It meant that the guardian spirit before them was not any real guardian of the garden but, like the shadow he had encountered earlier, an Abyssal Demon from the depths, infiltrating this realm!
