Chapter 1347 - 1344: Divine Tea Tree

Seeing this, a group of people all rushed after it. Medicine Kings were just too rare, they were willing to risk their lives to give it a shot.

Nangong Li was the first to give chase, however, there were too many Corpse Chiefs, it was extremely hard to break through the encirclement. Along with some miserable screams, people were torn into pieces, very tragic.

Besides Nangong Li breaking out of the encirclement, only a few others managed to fight their way out.

Chu Hao blasted a Corpse Chief away with one punch. Its whole body was like steel, yet it still didn't die. Chu Hao muttered, "This thing really is hard to kill."

Even the Power of Qiankun couldn't break open the Corpse Chief's flesh. It was hard to imagine what level its body had reached.

However, he had already broken through the Corpse Chiefs' encirclement with Su Yao, sprinting up the mountain and throwing off the crowd behind them.

In a secluded spot, the Corpse Chiefs were no longer following.

A figure caught up. It wasn't Nangong Li and the others, it was Han Qianxue. She said coldly, "Let go of your hand."

During the escape, Chu Hao had been pulling Su Yao by the hand.

Chu Hao rubbed his nose and said, "Don't tell me you're into women? Su Yao, you'd better be careful. I've seen lots of female comrades like that."

Han Qianxue blew up, saying, "You're the one who likes women. Take your hand away, don't touch my Susu."

Su Yao smiled lightly and said, "It's fine here now, they won't catch up for the moment. Chu Hao, your luck is really good."

Isn't it?

Even this kind of pie-falling-from-the-sky situation landed on him.

The five minutes of boosted luck had been used up. Chu Hao asked, "How do you use this butterfly?"

Su Yao said, "I suggest you save it and use it after you reach Emperor Realm, because it works even better when used at Emperor Realm."

Chu Hao nodded slightly.

"You planning to hog the Medicine King for yourself?" Han Qianxue said.

Han Qianxue's eyes were red with envy too—this was a Medicine King.

Chu Hao looked over at Su Yao.

Su Yao said, "I don't need this one. Other types of Medicine Kings I could consider."

This was absolutely the best girl in the world, Chu Hao thought.

Chu Hao said, "The Medicine King fell on me, not on you. What's it got to do with you?"

Han Qianxue was speechless, unable to retort.

She felt helpless inside. This kind of pie-from-the-sky event actually got bumped into by Chu Hao.

Chu Hao put the Great Horned Golden Tear Butterfly into the System vegetable garden.

"Ding… First time placing a Medicine King. System vegetable garden upgraded to medicine garden."

"Ding… Expanded by one hundred mu of land, plant growth capacity increased by a factor of two."

Chu Hao was pleasantly surprised—the vegetable garden had actually leveled up.

After the upgrade, the vegetable garden became a medicine garden, with an enormous area—one hundred and fifty mu of fields, and the surroundings turned spacious and open.

Originally, Chu Hao had planted many medicinal herbs, all kinds of herbs. He put all the herbs he'd collected in Snowy Shadow Domain, and the herbs he'd collected here, into the System's medicine fields.

Perhaps because of the Yu Ling Tree, these medicinal plants grew especially fast.

Plus, the soil of the System's medicine fields was already very special.

By now, the Yu Ling Tree was already enormous, a full hundred-meter giant tree. Its foliage was luxuriant, and it was still growing.

After putting the Great Horned Golden Tear Butterfly inside, the butterfly seemed to really like it here, landing on the Yu Ling Tree and refusing to fly away.

Looks like this Medicine King really likes the Yu Ling Tree.

Grow well. When the time comes, Brother Hao will eat you.

Chu Hao thought happily.

"The area got bigger." A cold, gloomy figure appeared.

It was Chu Yuan.

After receiving Chu Hao's approval, he had moved into the System medicine garden. Strangely enough, this guy's personality was very different from Chu Hao's—he'd taken a liking to planting.

Everything in the medicine garden was managed very well by him.

Chu Yuan was completely different from himself.

Hard to imagine that under that gloomy exterior, this guy actually liked farming. What kind of mindset was that?

Probably just too lonely.

Chu Yuan said, "My Lord, the Yu Ling Tree needs nutrient solution. It can keep growing."

Looking at the Yu Ling Tree, Chu Hao said, "Nutrient solution is expensive. Let's wait a bit."

Chu Yuan nodded slightly.

Chu Hao asked, "How's the refining of the Heavenly Ghost Stone Seed going?"

Chu Yuan said, "The process is slow. It's resisting me. I need something that can suppress it."

Chu Hao nodded slightly and said, "Mm, I'll keep an eye out for you."

He exited the medicine garden.

As for something that could suppress a Heavenly Ghost, Chu Hao really had no idea. He'd have to ask Su Yao—she knew too much. This girl was definitely a straight-up study god.

...

They continued searching for the treasure vault within the mountain range.

Flying wasn't possible in this area; formations were everywhere, and these formations even sealed the sky.

They climbed over one mountain after another, avoiding countless dangerous formations.

Chu Hao asked Su Yao, "Is there anything that can suppress a Heavenly Ghost Stone Seed?"

Su Yao thought for a moment, then said, "If it's a Supreme Yang Soldier, it can suppress Heavenly Ghosts. Not just the Stone Seed— it can suppress immature Heavenly Ghosts as well."

Supreme Yang Soldiers—that would come down to luck.

They climbed yet another mountain.

Ahead, they discovered a small tree. Its green leaves gave off an enticing fragrance of tea. A few milky-white little flowers bloomed on it, and the small tree swayed in the wind.

Su Yao and Han Qianxue exclaimed at the same time, "Divine Tea Tree."

This was another Medicine King tree.

And an incomparably rare Divine Tea Tree at that. It was said the tea leaves of this tree could enhance the Yin Yang Tao Realm, a plant enjoyed exclusively by Yin Yang Saints.

Even in the Shanhai Realm it was incomparably rare. It was said that in all of Tianqiong Province, only Beiming Holy Land had a single Divine Tea Tree. Whenever it produced tea leaves, many experts of the Yin and Yang Sacred Realm would go to Beiming to beg for some.

Han Qianxue was indescribably excited, saying, "It really is a Divine Tea Tree."

She was about to step forward.

Su Yao stopped her and said, "Divine Tea Trees all have their own consciousness. The one I saw at Beiming Holy Land could burrow into the earth. Once you get close to it, it'll escape underground and disappear without a trace."

Han Qianxue was stumped. "Then what do we do?"

Su Yao said, "I need time to set up a formation."

"Okay."

Su Yao set up a formation on a nearby mountain. She said, "Hopefully it can trap it for a while."

They laid out a plan and prepared to make a move.

Chu Hao burst out with Shadow Concealing Step, pouncing toward the Divine Tea Tree at an unbelievable speed.

In the end, he lunged straight into empty air. The Divine Tea Tree's underground roots straightened up, stepping out like two human legs.

It ran.

"Tree spirit, don't run." Chu Hao froze.

Chu Hao leapt after it, but again he grabbed at nothing. The Divine Tea Tree twisted its trunk like a living person, as if shaking a big butt to mock Chu Hao.

Chu Hao's mouth twitched, his head full of black lines—he was actually being mocked by a tree.

A large net fell from the sky—Han Qianxue had made her move. This net was a treasure of Taizong; things caught in it would rarely escape.

However, the Divine Tea Tree slipped into the earth veins and vanished.

Su Yao sensed through the formation and said, "It's over here."

Chu Hao and Han Qianxue both gave chase. Sure enough, the Divine Tea Tree appeared from the direction Su Yao had indicated.

"Still want to run?"

Rune patterns appeared in Chu Hao's palm—this was the Subduing Spirit Technique, a technique specialized for capturing Ginseng Spirits, essentially a kind of grappling art. He'd gotten it as loot when killing Corpse Chiefs.

Although the Subduing Spirit Technique wasn't anything amazing and had no offensive power, its one good point was entangling.
