Chapter 366: The Only Path to Survival!
"Cannot... but after adding these three Jade Snow Spiritual Ginsengs, the quality of the Ninefold Pill produced will be much better. The reason the nine great elixirs are the essence of all medicines is precisely because each of them is also a rare and precious treasure on their own, and can be paired with any medicinal ingredient... Although the Jade Snow Spiritual Ginseng also belongs to the category of rare and precious treasures, its medicinal properties still have conflicting aspects. Thus, while it is also an extraordinary medicine, it cannot be ranked among the nine great elixirs due to its differing nature!"
"I see." Chu Yang pondered, his left hand hovering over the three Jade Snow Spiritual Ginsengs. The next moment, he silently murmured "collect" in his heart, and the three ginsengs were already stored in the Nine Calamity Space.
The Nine Calamity Sword’s tip immediately became agitated.
With a swish, it emerged from Chu Yang's fingertip, feeling utterly wronged. It couldn't understand why it had discovered the ginseng, led the way, and found it, yet in the end, it had no share in it...
Chu Yang could only continuously comfort it in his thoughts, analyzing the pros and cons, and spoke sweet words until finally, he promised it a complete ginseng after it ripened. This finally dispelled the sword tip's grievances, making it excited and eager.
Chu Yang secretly smiled to himself, thinking, "What does it matter if you enjoy the Jade Snow Spiritual Ginseng? In the end, it will still form the Ninefold Pill for me! Yet you are so relentless about it..."
On the cliff, Jing Menghun looked at the three miserable corpses before him, his face darkening.
Beside him, over a hundred people were gathered, with more arriving one after another. Everyone looked at the three corpses and felt a chilling sensation.
The Scenic Throne had clearly stated that the opponents were already heavily injured, yet these three were all at the martial sovereign level. From the moment the sounds were made to the time everyone arrived, it was only a breath's time, and they had already met a tragic end!
How could someone who was seriously wounded possess such attacking power? Killing three martial sovereigns in a single encounter? This… this is too absurd!
"The opponent must have a divine weapon that can cut through steel like mud! Everyone needs to be cautious during the confrontation," Jing Menghun stood up and said calmly.
"Understood."
"Judging by their tracks, there should be no more than two paths. We came from the right, so one path leads to the cliff; the second path goes left. They cannot retreat since our main force is behind us." Jing Menghun analyzed steadily: "Taking the left path is riskier but leads north; jumping off the cliff is the safest and easiest way to escape our sight..."
At this point, he glanced again at the tracks from here to the cliff and said, "You should know that as long as one reaches the martial sovereign level, they can’t die from falling no matter how high the cliff is, as long as they can still exert their abilities... With a little leverage, they can safely descend."
He pondered for a moment and said, "If I’m not mistaken... Chu King of Hell must have jumped off the cliff! What do you all think?"
The crowd exchanged glances, remaining silent. This was a decision-making moment; if anyone interjected, confirming one direction, and it turned out to be wrong... anyway, the Scenic Throne would never take the blame for it.
"A team will go left. This seat will lead another team down the cliff!" Jing Menghun’s eyes flashed with anger but was quickly suppressed: “Notify General Wang and General Li to bring the hounds over quickly!”
"Yes."
"Everyone, move!" With a command from Jing Menghun, they rushed to the edge of the cliff. Looking down, everyone gasped in shock.
Clouds and mist enveloped the cliff’s mouth. Looking down, nothing could be seen!
They were all seasoned individuals, and such a phenomenon at the cliff's mouth only indicated: this cliff was unfathomably high! Earlier, everyone thought, isn’t it just a cliff? Jumping down definitely wouldn’t result in death!
