"Finally, I found you!" Xiao Tian leaped forward, then burrowed into the earth. Despite being underground, he moved with incredible speed. The immense power of lightning became his tool to shatter the soil before him, allowing him to reach the sacred emperor herb in no time. Sensing Xiao Tian’s presence, the sacred emperor herb immediately ceased its cultivation. It fixed its gaze on Xiao Tian, who was now standing close to it. “What foolish human dares to seek me now?” Whoosh— The sacred emperor herb resembled a small tree about two handspans tall. However, five-colored energy surrounded the tiny tree. As its body trembled, numerous sharp roots surged toward Xiao Tian like spears. Xiao Tian, with his Sky Eyes, could clearly see everything, even in the depths of the earth. “A troublesome plant, but I like it,” Xiao Tian muttered. He unsheathed his mysterious rusty sword and swiftly slashed at the sharp roots attacking him. Slash— Slash— Although these roots were powerful eno

“Do you want to leave this place?” Instead of answering, Xiao Tian asked back. The Sacred Medicine Emperor sighed. He sounded just like a human in the way he spoke. “Young human, who would want to stay in this place forever? With my current cultivation talent, I should have already transformed into a form like yours, resembling a human. Unfortunately, the energy here is too thin. Even if I cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years, I would never be able to transform. Only by absorbing the natural energy in a higher realm might I be able to transform in the near future.” “Then, what benefit is there for me to take you with me?” Xiao Tian thought rationally. He didn’t want to bring another being along if it wouldn’t be useful to him. He didn’t have time to increase someone else’s power if there was no reciprocal benefit for himself. “The benefits are immense. You are an alchemist, so you need spiritual plants, even higher-tier ones. With me, I can take care of the plants for you,

“Li Shi, what are you doing here?” asked a bald young man from the crowd. Li Shi felt slightly awkward because the one asking was a youth from the Qiantu Sect, a top-tier sect. “What I’m doing here is obvious, so why bother asking?” It was Xiao Tian who answered instead of Li Shi. “Hahaha! How amusing! Even a kid from a third-class power dares to talk like that to me! Kid, do you even know who I am?” sneered the bald young man with a disgusted expression. Xiao Tian didn’t answer him. Instead, he shifted his gaze to the elder accompanying the bald young man. “Old man, have you never taught your bald disciple how to speak properly to others? Or are you just as rude as him?” Boom— Hearing those words, everyone present in the Immortal Holy House courtyard was stunned. They couldn’t believe a youth from a third-class clan would dare to speak like that to an elder of the Qiantu Sect. The elder furrowed his brows. “Young man, what’s rude about it? It’s natural for a disciple of my sec

“I will enhance the strength of the formation. I want to see if you truly have the ability or if you’re just lucky!”The Master of the Immortal Sanctuary increased the power of the trial formation. This act was, in fact, a violation of the rules he had set himself. However, he was extremely curious because Xiao Tian had been able to break through several of his formations with ease.Buzz—In front of Xiao Tian, two giant statues suddenly appeared. Both statues opened their mouths wide. The one on the right bore the name "Gate of Life," while the one on the left was labeled "Gate of Death."Xiao Tian stared at the mouths of the two giant statues. “Hmm, to proceed, I must choose one of the gates from these giant mouths.” He used his Sky Eye ability to peer beyond the giant mouths, but his range of vision was limited because many formation patterns hindered his observation.The Master of the Immortal Sanctuary smirked. “Boy, I want to see what you’ll choose. From your decision, I can alr

“Hmm, I didn’t expect you to also be a sword master, but this is nothing yet. I hope you can still keep up with my attacks!” The young man created five new swords, making a total of five soul swords floating in front of him. Once the five swords appeared, he began attacking. Xiao Tian didn’t dare act recklessly. He summoned an additional sword, making it two swords against five. Clang— Clang— The clash of weapons echoed repeatedly. The young man attacked like a feral beast. However, what amazed Xiao Tian was how skillfully the young man wielded his swords. The five swords struck from every unpredictable direction. The rhythm of their battle intensified. When the young man spotted a slight opening, he immediately seized the opportunity to split Xiao Tian’s body in two. Seeing this, Xiao Tian hurled his sword toward the young man’s chest. Unfortunately, the young man easily deflected it. Realizing Xiao Tian no longer held a sword, the young man became excited. He immediately thre
