Chapter 150: Pursuing the Threshold

  This piece of Handan Mountain is either a place for sitting in meditation or a secluded outer area, it can be said that it is hidden deep within the depths of Handan City, or it can be said that it is a mysterious space connected by the secret passages of Handan City.

  This place isn't too big, but if you want to walk through it all, at Su Ming's speed, it would take at least about ten days.

  The mountains here are vast and sprawling, but they don't give off a strong sense of moisture, instead feeling very dry while also possessing a rich and dense spiritual energy that others can't clearly perceive.

  This spiritual energy surrounds this place, with the rolling fog, Su Ming's Baidu seeks magic quickly, ear root bookworm official yy: 3943 can feel and gain, as for others, it feels like being here will refresh one's spirit, as if one can forget fatigue.

  Perhaps it is because of the existence of this spiritual energy that there are many plants growing in the mountains, and these plants have a more dynamic and vibrant quality compared to those outside. Some rare medicinal herbs can even be found here that ordinary people from the outside world would find difficult to locate.

  Antonbu provided each guest with a voucher that clearly marked the location of some rare medicinal herbs in this place, and drew up a topographic map belonging to here.

  With this map, one can avoid confusion about the purpose of being in this place. At this moment, Su Ming held the wooden slip given by Anton, and firmly remembered everything drawn on it. His body rushed forward, following the ups and downs of the mountain range, cautiously advancing towards the front.

  Su Ming's divine sense spread out in all directions, and he was constantly on high alert for any movement around him. He knew that this place held unexpected dangers, and at any moment, he might encounter danger from Yan Chi Department. Moreover, he did not know whether An Dong and Pu Qiong had formed an alliance or not; if they hadn't, then the situation would become chaotic.

  "In the An Dongbu guest house, the strongest one is the head of the Hakka South Heaven... This person has already stepped into the Kai Chen, and in the wooden slips given to me by Fang Mu, there are the most descriptions about this person."

  He was the first to enter this place, I don't know what it's like now... The Southern Heaven of Antong Department, the Xuanlun of Puqiang Department, and Kejiu Si of Yanchi Department. These three people are the strongest guests in the three departments." Su Ming's eyes flashed, his feet made no sound as he walked, and after a stick of incense, his eyes looked forward to a mountain peak with a huge gorge in the middle, like it had been split in two.

  "Anlingcao, it's here!" In the wooden tablet of Andongbu that Su Ming had memorized, nearly 70% of the medicinal herbs were unknown to him, and except for Tianjizhi, the rest of the herbs were temporarily useless to him.

  But now that he had entered this place, Su Ming was not willing to let go of this opportunity, collecting more and more comprehensive herbs, which would help him in his future refinement after completing the Soul Seizing Pill.

  Looking at the crack in the mountain, Su Ming's heart became even more vigilant. Before approaching, he condensed his 200-meter-scale aura and carefully scanned it several times. Only then did he suddenly charge forward, transforming into a long rainbow that suddenly appeared from the ground and flashed into the crack in the mountain.

  This crevice was very deep and seemed to have no end, as if it had pierced through the earth. Inside the crevice, Su Ming felt along both sides of the rocky walls and took a deep breath.

  "This is man-made... Judging from its appearance, it's as if someone had split it open with a single slash... What kind of cultivation can achieve this!" Su Ming walked silently towards the bottom of the crack, calculating the distance as he moved.

  A moment later, Su Ming's figure paused, and at this deeper fissure, he saw a gap on the side of the rock wall. The gap was not large, and inside it was pitch black, as if it had once been a passage that had been cut off by these cracks.

  "It's here." Su Ming cautiously moved forward, his footprints scattered, and slowly came to this gap. As he stepped inside, a faint white mist suddenly emerged from the gap, shrouding Su Ming's body in an instant.

  Su Ming did not retreat or dodge, but instead immediately took out the wooden slip from Antong Department. In this wooden slip, the places where the various herbs were located were described in great detail. These herbs grew in places that had been searched and collected by Antong Department over the years, and had been nurtured without being taken away all at once, allowing the herbs to grow here and be sought out again next time.

  Find it here, enter here, need wooden slips, with this thing in, can open a place to protect the medicinal herbs of Andong. However, over the centuries, it is inevitable that the wooden slips will be taken away by other tribes, but there will also be cases where they take away the wooden slips of other tribes. As a result of mutual contact, nearly 90% of the places where the medicinal herbs are stored in this area are known to all three tribes.

  However, in order to avoid the extinction of medicinal herbs during the scramble, a delicate balance gradually formed among the three departments. Except for a few precious medicinal herbs that require competition among the three departments, other places are generally divided and allocated by the three departments before they are opened up.

  That white fog rolled in front of Su Ming, touching his Baidu quickly, the ear root bookworm official yy: 3943 wooden slip in his hand, and then gradually dispersed, revealing the road leading to the inside. Su Ming hesitated for a moment, walking cautiously.

  Time was short, and Su Ming's figure flashed in the gap, his face gloomy as he took a step forward, rushing out of the crack. He quickly rushed out of the crack and stood on the edge, his eyes flashing as he thought for a moment. He lowered his head and looked at the crack under his feet again, made up his mind, and did not leave, but instead rushed towards the crack again. This time, he didn't enter the passage through the gap, but walked deeper, quickly approaching, with a vast expanse of darkness below. However, within Su Ming's scale of perception, he could clearly feel it in his heart without needing to see it.

  Time flew by, and after a while, the crevice in front of Su Ming was still bottomless, but it became narrower and narrower. In many places, he had to tilt his body sideways to pass through.

  At this moment, within Su Ming's Branding Mark, he saw something.

  "Sure enough!" Su Ming's footsteps stopped, and he moved towards the location of the object he sensed within the scale pattern. Before long, a headless corpse appeared before him.

  The corpse was stuck in the rock wall of the fissure, headless, wearing a blue robe, with numerous wounds all over his body, especially a wound on his chest that almost pierced through his body.

  On his waist hung a token, this token was exactly the emblem of the Anton family!

  Su Ming carefully observed the body for a moment, flipped it over, and didn't find any belongings, but from the corpse, he could tell that the person had only been dead for a few days.

  "Lost his head, lost his blood..." Su Ming fell silent, his body swayed and rushed upwards quickly, soon leaving the ravine behind without stopping, walking swiftly towards a distant place.

  After several hours, Su Ming walked through the five places marked on the wooden slips as the habitats of the medicinal herbs. His expression became increasingly gloomy, and at a huge boulder, he stroked the wooden slip in his hand, deep in thought.

  "It's actually a medicinal herb!" This was not good news for Su Ming. It meant that the first two batches of people who came to Andong Department didn't have much chance to collect medicinal herbs, and even if they did come to search for them, they ended up as corpses like the person in the crack.

  Su Ming's eyes flashed, and after a moment of contemplation, he made up his mind. Just as he was about to continue on his way, the sound of a sword humming echoed in his mind. He suddenly turned around and immediately saw a white cloud whizzing by in the distant sky.

  On the white cloud stood two figures, one of whom had a slender and elegant body, it was Han Fei Zi!

  Su Ming's pupils suddenly constricted, and without hesitation, he immediately retreated and hid behind the rock, refusing to meet Han Fei Zi. In his opinion, Han Fei Zi appearing here was not unexpected, but if he could avoid it, then so be it.

  That white cloud whizzed by, getting closer and closer, its speed gradually slowing down. The blood shadow floating in front of Han Fei's body suddenly emitted a strong red glow at this moment.

  The blood shadow flashed red, immediately catching Su Ming's attention. He had thought that Han Fei Zi was just passing by on foot, but now looking at the white clouds under her feet slowing down as if about to stop, he also saw the red glow of the blood shadow. With a concentrated gaze, Su Ming's heart suddenly shook. What he saw was the blood shadow wearing a mask, and it looked exactly like himself!

  "Not good!" Su Ming immediately knew that the other party's appearance was not accidental, but rather guided by some kind of strange and barbaric technique, and what they were looking for was himself!

  "It must be that red-robed man from the Yan Chi Department!" Su Ming's body immediately retreated, and in the instant he had just backed out of less than three zhang, the mountain rock where he was previously standing suddenly emitted a chilling aura. With a cracking sound, this mountain rock instantly produced countless frost, and in the blink of an eye it transformed into a block of ice.

  The ice block exploded with a loud crash, forming countless icy shards that rushed towards Su Ming with a howl.

  At the same time, on the white clouds in the sky, Yan Guang, a tall and majestic young man behind Han Fei Zi, flashed a cold light in his eyes, took a big step forward, and descended from mid-air with force, transforming into a long rainbow that rushed straight towards Su Ming.

  "The Hakka from the East, killed my Yan Chi tribe people. Today, dare you to fight me, Yan Mou!?" Yan Guang's voice was loud and clear, spreading all around, as he approached, a shocking whistling sound rose sharply, in Yan Guang's hand holding a snake spear, this spear was entirely blue, emitting an eerie glow, now in his hand, following his shadow rushing forward, instantly closing in.

  "After the blood coagulation, there are more than eight hundred and fifty blood lines! Su Ming took a step back, his eyes piercing through the mask, one eye saw the young man's cultivation, if he were to meet him alone, Su Ming would have control over victory, but now with Han Fei Zi by his side."

  This young man Su Ming can be ignored, but Han Fei Zi, Su Ming had once searched for magic on Baidu quickly, Ear Root Book Fan Official YY: 3943 had a battle with her before, this woman has many tricks up her sleeve, if the two were to appear at the same time, he would not be able to match her.

  All sorts of thoughts flashed through Su Ming's mind, his body rapidly retreated backwards, his right hand raised in front of him and swung outwards, a fist hurtling towards the incoming Yan Guang.

  At the same time, a black snake appeared in Su Ming's left hand and let out a piercing hiss as it shot forward, charging towards the incoming icy rocks.

  Su Ming's fist fell, and his body immediately shook violently. He retreated several steps, and the face hidden behind the mask turned pale. As for Yan Guang in mid-air, he was even worse off. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and the blue snake spear in his hand almost slipped from his grasp. The incoming figure was knocked back by a powerful force, tumbling backward dozens of feet before finally coming to a stop in shock.
