“Young Master, this secret realm seems a bit off.”
Suddenly, Knife King Mu Zhi Feng frowned and said to Qin Chen.
“You sensed it too?”
Qin Chen glanced at him.
“Chen, this secret realm seems to be able to affect our Saint Master origin.”
You Qian Xue said in a low voice.
In fact, without their reminders, Qin Chen had already felt it. As they spent more time in this secret realm, he vaguely sensed that the origin within his body seemed to be becoming sluggish. This sluggishness was quite subtle, but both Qin Chen and You Qian Xue were extremely sensitive and immediately felt clearly that a force within this secret realm was affecting their origins, assimilating their powers.
This was also because both he and Qian Xue were top-tier talents, and Qian Xue was even the successor of the Taiyin Liuli Supreme. Generally, even someone like Knife King Mu Zhi Feng, a late-stage Saint Master expert, would feel something was off but wouldn’t know the specific reason.
“Old Mu, this world can assimilate our origins. If we stay in this secret realm for too long, our origins will be assimilated and become a part of this world.”
Qin Chen spoke.
Knife King Mu Zhi Feng was shocked in his heart; being able to assimilate their origins was terrifying.
“How long can we stay here, then?”
Knife King Mu Zhi Feng asked in shock.
“Don’t worry, this assimilation process is very slow. At the current rate, it will take at least a month for our origins to be completely assimilated. As long as we leave here within this month, we’ll be fine. However, that’s only temporary; I don't know if the speed of assimilation will change later.”
Qin Chen furrowed his brows, looking ahead at the old man from the wasteland, Yun Su.
From the performance of Yun Su and his group, it seemed they were also unaware of the peculiarities of this secret realm.
Along the way, although Qin Chen and his group were following behind several major forces, they still managed to find quite a few Saint Master spiritual herbs, all of which were of sufficient age and extremely high quality.
To show fairness, Yun Su didn’t seem to be tempted by these Saint Master spiritual herbs and let Qin Chen and the others harvest them first, while the loose cultivators beside him also expressed no objections.
Qin Chen sneered inwardly; since the other party wanted to continue acting, he naturally wouldn’t expose them. He was also unceremonious and didn’t collect these Saint Master spiritual herbs. Instead, he directly moved this entire area into his Qian Kun Dao Transformation Jade Plate.
Seeing Qin Chen so lavish, Yun Su even smiled, showing no signs of minding; evidently, he thought Qin Chen was just temporarily storing them for him.
The deeper Qin Chen went, the more delighted he felt. This trip was truly worthwhile. The quantity of spiritual herbs here was extremely abundant. Not only were there ordinary Saint Master spiritual sprouts, but he also came across many top-tier Saint Master spiritual herbs, and their quality and age were very high. It was nearly impossible to find such things in the outside Heavenly Realm.
Half a day later, the Saint Herb Garden inside Qin Chen’s Qian Kun Dao Transformation Jade Plate had already expanded to an area of several miles, all filled with top-tier Saint Master Holy Veins. The key was that these Holy Veins could continue to grow within Qin Chen’s Qian Kun Dao Transformation Jade Plate, allowing him to directly harvest them when needed.
As Qin Chen and his group entered, a valley suddenly appeared ahead.
“Oh, there’s a valley; there might be good things inside.”
Yun Su said and flew toward the valley.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The three of them closely followed, naturally entering the valley.
The valley was very calm, with a dense aura of holiness. On the ground, some spiritual grasses were growing, but there were no spiritual herbs.
In the depths of the valley, there was an area shrouded in mist, emitting waves of holy aura, as if some treasure was about to emerge.
