Chapter 1, Hellish Ganoderma

As long as he sells this hellish ganoderma, he will be able to purchase many high-quality elixirs, and at that time, he will make rapid progress

This left the horse steward with a bitter expression, as he had not anticipated that he would be targeted

All of this is due to the fact that he lacks a spiritual vein, which is why he is not valued by the family, and now he is just an ordinary person within the Shen family

Hell Ganoderma! Shen Xiang shouted excitedly, his gaze fixed with excitement below. About ten zhang beneath his feet, there was something resembling a large white pancake pressed against the cliff wall. He was very certain that this was the legendary Hell Ganoderma.

After a moment of distraction, Shen Xiang finally saw that the bottom of the abyss was a scene of devastation, filled with numerous cracks and pits, and strewn with broken stones. Among the rubble, there were many small pieces of white silk, which appeared to indicate that a battle had taken place. He speculated that this was caused by the two women fighting, which also led to the destruction of their clothing

At this moment, Shen Xiang was going to gather medicinal herbs. Although he was the grandson of the head of the Shen family, he could not become a powerful martial artist due to his lack of spiritual veins. Therefore, he had been diligently training his body since childhood, often going out for various secret training sessions, and even engaging in physical combat with tiger beasts. Despite his young age, he had experienced several life-and-death situations, and his state of mind and willpower far surpassed that of his peers

Rainy days can cause some dark energy to sink, allowing Shen Xiang to see deeper cliff faces. He then goes to a deeper area, where he can search for the "Hell Lingzhi".

Shen Xiang was extremely excited; he calmed himself down, rested for a moment, and then slowly began to descend.

"Old Ma, I am going to gather herbs." Shen Xiang ran behind the old steward, playfully tugging at a whip on his bald head

Although he does not possess a spiritual vein, Shen Xiang has never been discouraged; he has consistently worked hard to improve himself. At the very least, the process of striving makes him feel fulfilled

Although he does not need the Hell Ganoderma, after obtaining this sacred medicine, he will definitely be able to exchange it for many precious elixirs, which can help him escape his predicament and gain immense power

Shen Xiang exerted great effort to harvest the Ganoderma, placing it into his precious storage bag. He grinned and said, "Haha, my time to turn the tables has come!"

Shen Xiang is sixteen years old this year, possessing a physique that is more robust and taller than his peers. This physique stands in stark contrast to his youthful and handsome face. However, his pair of deep-set eyes, which are not commensurate with his age, appear to be more mature than those of his contemporaries.

The abyss beside the Immortal Demon Cliff is referred to as Hell, yet at this moment, Shen Xiang, who is staying beneath this Hell, feels as if he is in a fairyland. Here, there is a pool emitting a sacred white light, and most importantly, there are two stunningly beautiful women by the poolside, both of whom are unclothed

At that moment, the two women realized that a pair of fiery eyes was scanning them from not far away, which filled them with a mix of shame and anger

What left Shen Xiang dumbfounded was that not far from the pool sat two women with disheveled hair and strikingly beautiful appearances.

Ah—沈翔's body plunged into the abyss shrouded in dark mist, his voice filled with unwillingness echoing below...

The two naked women appeared as if they were meticulously carved from mutton fat jade, without a trace of blemish. Their bosoms were both full and firm, and their waists equally delicate; they were breathtakingly beautiful. This was the most beautiful woman Shen Xiang had ever seen

In the perception of ordinary people, a place devoid of vitality is without any miraculous medicine; however, Shen Xiang does not share this belief. He is well aware of the principle that extremes will inevitably lead to opposites, and he is quite certain that there must be a legendary precious elixir on this cliff face

Shen Xiang took the box, not even glancing at its contents. He knew that it contained elixirs and chuckled, saying: "Thank you, old man. This way, I won't have to steal the chickens raised by that old man Ma to replenish my strength."

"Heavenly Father, I just obtained the Hell Lingzhi, and you want me to go to hell, just to toy with me!" Shen Xiang couldn't help but curse loudly, and at that moment, the black mist below began to rise, and the rock that Shen Xiang was holding suddenly cracked open

Just as he had been climbing for more than half an hour, he suddenly felt the cliff wall beginning to tremble slightly

Shen Xiang was taken aback, and his excited heart immediately sank; he had a bad premonition. He looked up and saw many small stones falling from the cliff, plunging into the unfathomable abyss below, while the cliff, which had been slightly trembling, began to shake more violently.

Watching Shen Xiang's figure disappear, Shen Tianhu could only sigh. Although he held a high position in the Shen family, the elders of the Shen family managed the rare and precious cultivation resources, such as elixirs, very strictly. He could only spare a portion for Shen Xiang, but it would not be of much help, as the elixirs were too few.

Isn't this Shen Xiang? It's about to rain heavily, and you still want to exercise?" An old steward walked over and said. Seeing Shen Xiang so determined, he couldn't help but admire him, but there was more regret in his eyes.

Shen Xiang found a relatively good place to settle down. At that moment, he carefully observed below and suddenly saw something that made his heart race with excitement.

Shen Xiang floated to the surface, and the place he was in was a pool, which emanated a pure white light.

No one knows what lies beneath the *Picture* Book Fairy Demon Cliff. Although many have descended, not a single person has returned. Falling down means death

Although Shen Xiang did not understand why these two stunningly beautiful women were fighting beneath this abyss, he could see that they were very powerful, and their strength exceeded his comprehension, as they were able to unleash earth-shattering power.

The sky is overcast with dark clouds, and from time to time, a flash of lightning appears, accompanied by the rumble of thunder, signaling that a heavy rain is about to arrive

He must remain calm and hold tightly to the uneven cliff face, otherwise he will be shaken off and fall down

Before long, Shen Xiang arrived beside the hellish ganoderma. He swallowed hard, gazing at the white hellish ganoderma, which was as large as a basin. He could still feel the vigorous life force emanating from the hellish ganoderma.

"Damn it, I finally obtained the Hell Spirit Mushroom, please don't joke with me, heavens!" The sudden tremor of the earth made Shen Xiang curse involuntarily.

What shocked him the most was that the two ethereal women before him were completely unclothed! Their flawless, perfect bodies were laid bare before him without any reservation

Uncertain how much time had passed, Shen Xiang opened his eyes and was astonished to see light. This was at the bottom of the abyss, and what amazed him even more was that he was actually in water, and he could breathe!

Two hours had passed, and the heavy rain continued to fall. Shen Xiang, relying on his strong physique developed over many years of training, descended into the cliff that was several dozen zhang deep.

Xianmo Cliff, this is a very desolate place, yet at this moment, a bare-chested young man is climbing on the cliff

As a father, who does not wish for their child to succeed? However, Shen Tianhu is also powerless; he can only do his best to strive for the elixir on behalf of Shen He and Tu Shixiang.

In the city of Wo Hu, Shen Xiang looked up at the sky and murmured, "I can no longer delay; I must quickly find a good spiritual medicine, otherwise I will find it difficult to have a chance for a turnaround"

The increasingly intense tremors gradually filled Shen Xiang with despair. At that moment, he saw larger rocks continuously falling from above, and he felt the rocks he was gripping with both hands starting to crack.

Shen Xiang is not only not foolish, but also very intelligent. He knows that the Immortal Demon Cliff has existed for many years, especially the deathly aura below, the duration of which no one knows.

"Xiang'er, with the weather like this, it's better not to go!" At this moment, a middle-aged man approached.

Such a striking and sensual scene left Shen Xiang completely petrified, his face flushed and his heart and breath seemingly halted

For such words, Shen Xiang had heard them countless times, yet he still had to persevere; no matter what, he would not give up

However, Shen Xiang came here to gather herbs, climbing slowly down the cliff. If others were to find out, they would surely mock him as a reckless madman. Everyone knows that in such desolate and lifeless places, there would never be any good spiritual herbs.

Two women were sitting cross-legged on the ground, gazing at each other, completely unaware of Shen Xiang's presence. This made Shen Xiang feel a sense of being overlooked, as he was actually ignored by two stunning beauties

Shen Xiang could only use one hand to pick this Hell Ganoderma. He estimated that this Hell Ganoderma was over a thousand years old, and if taken to auction, it would fetch an astronomical figure

Shen Xiang stared intently at the two flawless jade bodies before him, while gently approaching the two women.

Shen Xiang curled his lips and said, "Father, rainy days are a great opportunity for gathering herbs, at least we don't have to fight with others to the point of bloodshed."

... ...

Here you go." Shen Tianhu smiled helplessly and tossed a small box to Shen Xiang

Raindrops fell on Shen Xiang, making him feel quite uncomfortable, while also causing the rocks on the cliff to become even more slippery. This made him more cautious as he carefully climbed down the cliff, for a moment's inattention could lead to a fall.

This place is perpetually shrouded in a black aura, and the color of the Hellish Ganoderma is very similar to that of the cliff, making it difficult to detect

"Truly a beauty that brings disaster, she actually knocked me down. Fortunately, I am lucky enough not to have fallen to my death!" Shen Xiang cursed inwardly, but he was very curious about these two mysterious women

The middle-aged man named Shen Tianhu is the father of Shen Xiang. He is a renowned and powerful martial artist, and he is also the most likely candidate to inherit the position of the next head of the Shen family. Although his son lacks a spiritual vein, he has always encouraged Shen Xiang and occasionally provided him with precious elixirs, yet it has still proven to be of no avail

"Useless, you have no spiritual veins; no matter how hard you try, it will be of no avail!" the old steward sighed, shaking his head

Shen Xiang studies diligently every day, and to this day, it has been six years, yet he remains at the third level of the Mortal Martial Realm. Most of his peers from the Shen family have reached the fourth level, while those who are particularly outstanding have even attained the fifth level

The "Hell Ganoderma" sounds quite terrifying, yet it is a miraculous medicine capable of reviving the dead and restoring flesh and bones. It typically grows in places heavy with death energy, such as ancient battlefields and graveyards, and is considered a rare and extraordinary remedy

The rain gradually lessened, and Shen Xiang was a very content person, so he did not continue to search the vast cliff but chose to climb up instead. After all, his physical strength was limited, and climbing up was also very arduous and dangerous

At this moment, heavy rain was pouring down, yet Shen Xiang was climbing the cliff in this place, which was an extremely dangerous endeavor. It is important to note that beneath this Immortal Demon Cliff lies an unfathomable depth, and a kind of black mist, imbued with a sense of death, constantly permeates the area below. As a result, many people are reluctant to approach this location
