Chapter 5, What a big tree

The peak of the fourth level of Qi training, not yet reaching the fifth level. Fang Ling quickly assessed the strength of the burly man.

However, at the moment he leaped up to pursue, the body of the second man was suddenly split in two.

This invisible barrier reminded Fang Ling of the passage that Master Zhao had opened when entering the secret realm of Lasha Mountain

Go take a look

How can a leaf give itself such a feeling

The platform is not large, only measuring ten zhang in circumference. Standing here, one can see the enormous tree with remarkable clarity.

Only masters with a cultivation level of at least the fourth layer of Qi Refinement can unleash such a blade aura that can cut through iron like mud

This poison, the Dragon Grass, is the primary ingredient for cultivating the Azure Evil Palm. By combining it with other herbs in my medicine basket, I can prepare the first dose of the medicine for cultivating the Azure Evil Palm

A good cave dwelling can even be worth hundreds of thousands of taels of gold

There is some reluctance, but Fang Ling is aware that relying on her own strength, once the passage opened by Master Zhao disappears, she will be unable to leave this secret realm of Lasha Mountain

Each piece resembles a human palm

With a calm mind, Fang Ling gently touched the front with his hand, only to feel an invisible wall blocking his advance. The further he extended his hand, the stronger the rebound from the wall became.

In the gentle sound, the purple light curtain connected to the small bowl instantly shattered from the air, and as the man lowered his head, the trace of the wind slashed past the top of his head

Two burly men at the fourth level of Qi Refinement, which caused Fang Ling's brows to furrow even tighter

A tree is surprisingly enclosed by itself; what is so peculiar about this tree

Unwilling to accept her fate, Fang Ling circled the large tree twice, finding no path to enter at all

Puyecao, Qingmugeng, Duguo fruit... Fang Ling, who was idly doing nothing, was identifying various medicinal herbs on that platform

Seeing the cultivator who flew a hundred meters in an instant, Fang Ling felt a tremor in his heart

Is this small bowl a magical tool

At the moment this person's long sword was swung, a blade aura measuring half a foot in length appeared on the sword.

Having made up her mind, Fang Ling found a piece of blue stone and began to cultivate the Peiyuan skill

If this had happened in the past, Fang Ling would have been unable to evade it at all, but at this moment, this blade aura is not an obstacle for Fang Ling in the slightest

Confronted by the traces of the wind, the man pointed with his finger, and a small blue-green bowl suddenly soared into the air, emitting a faint purple light that enveloped his entire being in the purple glow

"Kid, I really underestimated you. Today, I will definitely..." The burly man, who had been struck on the back by Fang Ling, turned his head and said fiercely to Fang Ling, the blood at the corner of his mouth making him appear even more ferocious

Hmm, Poison | Dragon Grass, there is actually Poison | Dragon Grass here!'' Looking at a three-foot-tall herb that emanated faint black mist all over, Fang Ling felt a surge of ecstasy in his heart

Isn't this Fang Ling? I didn't expect you to be so lucky, kid. Two men jumped out from the bushes, one holding a long knife, watching Fang Ling as a cat watches a mouse

Moreover, the peculiar leaves provided Fang Ling with a refreshing sensation

Trees of ten zhang in height, especially at the mountain summit, are truly rare

This is his first time meeting a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator

Hmm

Fang Ling was momentarily taken aback, but soon prepared to chase after.

He passed through two spaces and was split in half

Ran!

At the moment Fang Ling was staring at the small bowl, an invisible trace of wind had already touched the purple light. In the instant of collision, the purple light and the book appeared to shatter like glass struck by a fist, forming numerous cracks.

The harvesting of medicinal herbs is nearly complete; why not cultivate here for a few days

Having added a slight amount of internal energy into the dantian, Fang Ling practiced the Golden Goose technique for a while before finally concluding the session and resting

Green Evil Palm

If it were not for Fang Ling's quick use of the Golden Goose Technique to stabilize his body, this collision would have surely caused him to spit blood

"Brother, what happened to you?" The second man quickly ran to the side of the first man and shouted anxiously

Fang Ling did not speak, but merely looked coldly at the two individuals

Spatial Rift

Fang Ling put the items into his backpack and continued to walk down, but his pace had noticeably slowed down

Elder brother, be careful

Just as the man let out a sigh of relief, Fang Ling saw a large pit appear beneath him, rushing towards the man's body.

However, the man who fell to the ground could no longer make any sound

If a monk of this level were to arrive in Dingfang City, even the city lord would have to show utmost respect

The murderer, one is always killed by others

Looking at his own palm print, Fang Ling felt a wave of satisfaction. The Qing Sha Palm is not particularly difficult to practice; the most important factor in mastering the Qing Sha Palm is the use of medicinal substances

In disappointment, Fang Ling prepared to leave

Fang Ling's gaze was ultimately drawn to those leaves, as they were indeed rather peculiar.

Cultivating internal energy involves absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the void. In a place abundant with such spiritual energy, the practice naturally yields twice the result with half the effort.

This tree is only ten zhang high, while this large tree rooted at the highest point of the mountain is over twenty zhang tall. Its thick trunk, from Fang Ling's perspective, resembles a wall. The branches twist and turn, resembling a coiling dragon.

Silently, but at the moment the youth withdrew his palm, a greenish handprint had already been imprinted into the stone, more than two fingers deep.

Puff

The Qi is being expelled; this is a practitioner in the Foundation Establishment stage

Fang Ling carefully examined the secret manual of the Qing Sha Palm...

The first man did not pay any attention to Fang Ling at all, and he immediately felt a sense of humiliation. He swung the long knife in his hand and coldly said: "Little beast, you can stay here!"

Although one cannot starve to death in the secret realm of Lasha Mountain, the time to repay the debts owed to the Chen family is approaching, how can one not return

As the energy circulated, streams of spiritual energy were absorbed into Fang Ling's body. What originally required three hours to complete thirty-six cycles of internal energy could now be accomplished in just one hour.

However, this result has already made Fang Ling very satisfied

What kind of tree is this

Snap

However, the man arrived a little late, as Fang Ling's palm had already struck fiercely against the back of the first big man

As Fang Ling approached the original site of Xianglong Temple, his gaze suddenly sharpened. He saw a man in his thirties unexpectedly charging through the air, a hundred meters away from the original site of Xianglong Temple.

From the two men, Fang Ling not only found over a thousand taels of gold notes, but also discovered seven or eight spiritual herbs and three pouches

Although it is nice here, it is futile if one cannot enter

This tree further intensified Fang Ling's aspirations to rise upward

Fang Ling looked at the two dead men, feeling a surge of relief in his heart. If he had not mastered the Qing Sha Palm and the Golden Goose Technique, he would likely have been the one to die.

You... you killed my elder brother? I will fight you!" The second man shouted wildly and turned to run away.

Fang Ling felt a jolt in her arm; the back of the burly man felt as solid as cast iron, even possessing a kind of recoil that made her palm tingle

Through the sunlight, the boy's palm was a full one and a half times larger than usual, and amidst the flickering blue light, it was already imprinted on the stone.

It has been five days on this Mount La, and it is time to descend

As he walked down, it was already a well-trodden path for Fang Ling, who even felt as if he were enjoying a leisurely excursion in the mountains and waters

Although she only had a rough look, Fang Ling estimated that this tree was at least over 10 zhang tall

Whether it is Fang Ling's memory or the master's memory, Fang Ling can ascertain that he has never seen such a tree before

In the memory of the master, many individuals have fought desperately for this region rich in the essence of heaven and earth

He executed the Golden Goose technique, and his entire being resembled a large goose, swiftly darting to the side of the burly man. Before the man could react, he had already channeled the full force of the Qing Sha palm and struck towards the man's back.

As Fang Ling was staring blankly at the man, he also noticed her and said in a deep voice: "Youngster, take another path; there are many spatial rifts here, and this is not a place for you to tread."

Just as he was about to leave, Fang Ling suddenly discovered that the spiritual energy of this place was actually twice as strong as that of other locations

This should also be a type of barrier, and it is a seal even more robust than that of the Wax Mountain Secret Realm. Not to mention oneself, even that Master Zhao would likely be unable to break this seal

The Green Killing Palm of the First Layer

The drug known as Poison Dragon Grass can only support the cultivation of the first level of the Azure Evil Palm. To achieve the second level, one would need the Qianji Fruit or several other types of poisons classified as grade eight or above.

Three days later, when the sunlight once again illuminated the secret realm of Lushan, a young man sitting cross-legged on a rock suddenly soared into the air at the moment he drew the rolling white mist into his abdomen. He swung his left hand and struck heavily against a stone weighing around one hundred pounds.

In just a quarter of an hour, Fang Ling had already arrived at a platform a hundred zhang away from the mountain peak

Relying on the Golden Goose Technique, Fang Ling continuously traversed one protruding rock after another. Now, with a considerable amount of medicinal herbs stored in his backpack, he no longer needed to pay attention to the herbs appearing around him, allowing him to walk at a much faster pace

This pouch is clearly not that of two men, and there are even bloodstains on one of the pouches

At this moment, Fang Ling realized that her judgment about this tree was indeed a bit too subjective

Curiosity drove Fang Ling to cross the platform and continue towards the large tree. However, just as he was about to ascend the mountaintop platform, his advancing body was suddenly rebounded by a force.

"Be sensible and obediently leave the things in your backpack; I will spare your life." The first man who spoke pointed at Fang Ling and said coldly

These two men, Fang Ling remembered, were the ones who entered the mountains with him. However, he did not expect that they were actually hiding here

Just as he was dodging the attack from the second burly man, the first burly man, who had charged over fiercely, suddenly fell to the ground, his fierce face completely turning a shade of blue.

Leaves the size of a palm hang high on the branches, lush and green like a canopy

Another man shouted loudly and rushed over quickly

This blade's aura represents the man's cultivation, having already surpassed the fourth level of Qi training

What kind of tree is this? How did it grow so tall

Just as he was speaking, a streak of wind swiftly slashed towards him

The second big man should also be at the fourth level of Qi training
