Chapter 1169: Spiritual Medicines Mountain

Song Qingshan suddenly had a misconception that choosing to cooperate with this young fellow named Ou Yangming was probably his biggest mistake.

‘Not interested?

‘What did he mean by he’s not interested? Doesn’t he know how big the difference between the Pill Refinement Department and other places is?’

Just as Song Qingshan was about to catch up to Ou Yangming and explain further, Meng Chenghe turned around and shouted coldly, “Silence!”

Song Qingshan shrank his neck and did not dare to speak anymore.

After leading the group to the front of a bamboo house, Meng Chenghe walked up alone and knocked on the door.

A fat man walked out of the bamboo house. His loose clothes were very greasy, but he looked mighty when he walked.

He glanced at the group of people while Meng Chenghe walked to the front and said, “Steward Mo, these are the new outer sect disciples I recruited from the Immortal City. They all have High Grade talent and have reached the mental power standard.”

“Old Meng, you’ve worked hard.”

Steward Mo walked over and patted Meng Chenghe’s shoulder twice. 2 oil stains immediately appeared on the old man’s clean shoulder.

Meng Chenghe originally wanted to dodge, but the fatty was too fast, so he could not dodge in time. After laughing bitterly, he commented, “Old Brother Mo, your speed has increased quite a bit.”

“It’s just a small improvement, so it’s nothing.” Steward Mo looked at the few people and nodded, then he said, “There are exactly 2 spots in the outer sect’s Pill Refinement Department now, so only 2 of the 4 of you can go there. As for the remaining 2, one of you will go to the Spiritual Herbs Mountain while the other will go to the Spirit Beast Mountain.”

“Senior, I’m willing to go to the Spiritual Herbs Mountain.”

Steward Mo had just finished speaking when Ou Yangming took a step forward and said loudly.

Song Qingshan rolled his eyes. ‘This fella’s really hopeless. The Spiritual Herbs Mountain is a barren place, and the people who go there are simply idiots.’

At first, no one dared to say anything. After Ou Yangming took the lead, Song Qingshan also prepared to request to go to the Alchemy School. Nonetheless, before he could step out, the 2 brothers in grey robes had taken a step forward.

“Senior, we want to go to the Pill Refinement Department.”

The fatty had a strange look in his eyes. Many people wanted to go to the Alchemy School, and this was the first time someone wanted to go to the Spiritual Herbs Mountain.

Originally, he had planned to let them compete with each other. Now that Ou Yangming had voluntarily given up, it saved him some trouble. He said directly, “If that’s the case… By the way, what’s your name?”

Steward Mo looked at Ou Yangming. He had forgotten to ask for the names of these people.

“My name is Ou Yangming,” Ou Yangming answered in a deep voice.

“Alright then. Ou Yangming, right? You can go to the Spiritual Herbs Mountain. The 2 of you go to the Pill Refinement Department.” After saying that, Steward Mo pointed at Song Qingshan and said, “You go to the Spirit Beast Mountain.”

Steward Mo’s words were decisive. Song Qingshan wanted to cry but had no tears. He did not have any chance to choose.

‘Stupid teammate! Damn this stupid teammate!’ Song Qingshan roared internally.

Not long after, someone sent the 4 of them special clothes, tokens, and magic tools. With that, the four ordinary young men transformed and became the outer sect disciples of the Mystic Sky Sect.

The Spiritual Herbs Mountain was not just a mountain. It was formed from countless mountains. Ou Yangming was looking after a small mountain.

As expected, it was quiet here, and no one disturbed him.

After 3 days, Ou Yangming was taught a basic Qi refinement method. It was considered a benefit for outer sect disciples, and he was also given an encyclopedia on spiritual medicines.

The book was recorded in a jade slip. One only needed to release one’s mental power into it to see the contents.

Ou Yangming read it carefully. There were a total of 380,000 types of spiritual medicines in it. From low-level to high-level ones, almost all the common spiritual medicines were included.

Among them, Ou Yangming also saw the Dragon Fragrant Herb. It was in the last section, which recorded its simple effects.

Dragon Fragrant Herbs could be refined into Dragon Fragrant Pills, and the effects of Extreme Grade Dragon Fragrant Pills were more than 10 times that of Dragon Fragrant Herbs. The refining method was not mentioned. The record only stated that it would be very difficult to even refine a Low Grade Dragon Fragrant Pill.

As for the Mystic Ice Jade Fruit and the Seven-colored Heavenly Fragrant Flower, Ou Yangming did not see them.

This spiritual medicines encyclopedia was very important. Every outer sect disciple of the Alchemy School had to remember everything in it as there would be an assessment after a month. If one passed the assessment, there would be a reward. If one did not pass, the punishment would be quite severe.

Outer sect disciples were quite relaxed. As long as they were not in the Pill Refinement Department, no one would be controlling them. Nevertheless, there would be an assessment every once in a while. If one wanted to obtain the rewards of the assessments, one needed to have very strong self-control.

Ou Yangming only used a week’s time to completely memorize the 380,000 types of spiritual medicines.

Afterward, he walked into the Spiritual Medicines Mountain and glanced at the spiritual medicines.

He became familiar with the spiritual medicines that were unfamiliar to him.

‘This is the Salvia Miltiorrhiza Herb.

‘Nine Veins Flower.

‘White Peony Root Medicine.’

As Ou Yangming walked, he said the names of the spiritual medicines internally. As the sun set, he walked from one side to the other.

There were more than 3,000 spiritual medicines on the Spiritual Medicines Mountain that he was guarding, all of which were of Grade 3 and below. He was only unfamiliar with a few of them, by which he could call the other ones by their names.

After a busy day, Ou Yangming returned to his small room and began to cultivate.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. Ou Yangming was not in a hurry to secretly learn how to refine pills, nor was he in a hurry to learn about the Mystic Ice Jade Fruit.

After arriving here, Ou Yangming had been careful. He did not dare to act rashly because of the terrifying auras in the depths of the Mystic Sky Sect.

As a top-tier sect of the Humans, Ou Yangming did not know if they had a top-notch powerhouse of the third step, but they surely had more than one powerhouse of the second step.

One early morning.

After Ou Yangming patrolled around the Spiritual Medicines Mountain, he saw 2 people walking over. They were the Bai family’s brothers who had come to the sect with him.

At first, Ou Yangming did not know their names. Later, he found out from the list of new outer sect disciples.

Their names were very odd. One was called Bai Chi, and the other was Bai He.

Ou Yangming could not figure out what kind of stimulation their father had received when he came up with the weird names[1].

After seeing their names, for the first time, Ou Yangming felt that Old Craftsman was quite cute when he came up with his name.

“Brother Bai Chi, Brother Bai He, what are you doing on my Spiritual Medicines Mountain?”

Ou Yangming walked over with a smile.

When the slots were being distributed, Ou Yangming was the first to choose the Spiritual Medicines Mountain and gave up the best spot. This allowed the 2 brothers to easily go to the department they wanted to go to, but they did not seem to appreciate the kindness.

The 2 of them looked cold and indifferent. After looking at Ou Yangming, Bai Chi took out a porcelain bottle from his interspatial bag and threw it over.

“This is your Qi-replenishing Pill for the month. The alchemist master has asked us to send them over.”

Ou Yangming smiled. The Pill Refinement Department was indeed a well-known good place. The 2 brothers had only been there for half a month, but they had already gotten such a good mission. Moreover, they could even build relationships with alchemists.

Of course, as compared to serving those alchemists in the Pill Refinement Department, Ou Yangming still preferred the free and unfettered environment of the Spiritual Medicines Mountain.

He reached out and took the porcelain bottle that was thrown over to him.

Ou Yangming opened the porcelain bottle in his hand and looked inside. Afterward, he called out to the 2 brothers, “Brothers, please wait for a moment.”

The 2 of them did not look too good. They turned around and responded, “What is it? We still need to deliver the pills to the other outer sect disciples. Don’t waste our time.”

Ou Yangming smiled and said, “I won’t waste your time. I just have a question. Didn’t you say that the outer sect disciples have 3 Qi-replenishing Pills a month? Why is there only 1 in my bottle? Shouldn’t you give me an explanation? Could it be that you’ve taken the other 2 pills for yourselves?”

“Ou Yangming, what nonsense are you talking about!” The 2 brothers looked around nervously, then they shouted sternly, “Your Spiritual Medicines Mountain is full of spiritual Qi. You should be grateful that you’re given a Qi-replenishing Pill so don’t be insatiable. If you offend us, you might not even get any!”

Seeing that there was no one else around, the 2 brothers raised their voices.

Ou Yangming chuckled. “As expected, my guess is correct. You stole the 2 other pills. You’re new here, so you don’t dare to offend the other outer sect disciples, and you choose to bully the newbies instead. Let me guess—did you also steal 2 of Song Qingshan’s pills?”

The Qi-replenishing Pills were only the lowest level of pills. With Ou Yangming’s strength, even if he ate 10,000 of them, there would be no effect. Despite that, he could not stand the way the brothers behaved. He did not offend them, but they had taken advantage of the pills that belonged to him to fill their pockets.

“I advise you to give me my pills, or I’ll tell Steward Mo,” Ou Yangming said coldly.

“B*stard, I think you’re courting death,” Bai Chi roared, his eyes burning with anger. The 2 of them had already become followers of alchemists. They did not regard Ou Yangming, an outer sect disciple with no future, as anything.

“Big Brother, there’s no need to talk nonsense with him. Even if Steward Mo investigates, we’ll say that the pills were eaten by him,” Bai He also said in a deep voice.

A cold light suddenly flashed in the air. The corners of Ou Yangming’s mouth curled up as he coldly said, “You 2 idiots really live up to your names.”

“B*stard, how dare you scold us?”

The muscles on Bai He’s face twitched.

With that, the 2 brothers jumped down from a high place. The lights in their hands flickered as they smashed toward Ou Yangming’s body.

After a minute…

The Bai family’s brothers were lying on the ground. Their eyes were filled with terror. The 2 of them had never thought that this young fellow called Ou Yangming would be so powerful.

They were Intermediate Spiritualists and could be considered pretty good among the outer sect disciples, but they still could not withstand a single blow from Ou Yangming.

“Hand over the medicinal pills.”

Ou Yangming did not waste any more time with them and spoke straightforwardly.

The 2 brothers had no choice but to grit their teeth and hand over the medicinal pills. Deep down, they wanted nothing more than to crush Ou Yangming into pieces. Having said that, they also understood that a wise man would not fight when the odds were against him.

After receiving the medicinal pills, Ou Yangming let the brothers go. They rolled and crawled away. After going further away, the brothers turned around and uttered fiercely, “Ou Yangming, just you wait!”

Ou Yangming looked up, and the 2 brothers hurriedly fled again.

“You’re just ants. So what if I wait for you?” Ou Yangming withdrew his gaze and began to observe the medicinal pills in his hand.
