"What happened to Fatty!"
A group of people hurried to Fatty's side.
They looked at Fatty nervously.
Fatty was staring at the scene ahead in shock.
His hand was pointing at the scenery before them.
Zhang Tian, feeling curious, followed the direction Fatty was pointing.
He saw flowers blooming everywhere, vying for attention.
The flowers seemed alive, swaying with the gentle breeze.
They looked like small blades of grass.
And looking at the vibrant sea of flowers before him, Zhang Tian was once again stunned by the scene.
An endless amount of medicinal herbs were still in bloom.
But these herbs were slightly different from before; their types had changed somewhat.
"This is Hong Hai Hua, a primary ingredient for pills used to replenish blood during cultivation," Hu Bayi murmured.
This kind of medicinal ingredient was also extremely precious.
In all the years Zhang Tian and his companions had been grave robbing, the chance of encountering this herb was practically zero.
However, after years of venturing out, Zhang Tian had discovered that the rarity of medicinal herbs would only increase with time.
In his long career of grave robbing, he had only encountered medicinal herbs a handful of times.
Seeing such fresh medicinal herbs, and of top quality at that, how could Zhang Tian not be excited?
"It seems I'll have to see if I can take them all away."
"Queen Jing Jue is fine in the spatial dimension. Since half of the dimension belongs to her anyway, planting some herbs shouldn't be too much to ask."
Zhang Tian thought to himself. At this moment, his gaze towards the medicinal herbs was even more fervent.
If all of these were planted in the illusory space, that space would truly be a treasure trove!
The space contained spiritual water, supreme spiritual energy, and even vast fields of rare medicinal herbs.
Who wouldn't want such a spatial artifact!
"Boss, there are so many, when will we finish picking them?"
Fatty looked at the herbs before him, a little confused.
Fatty didn't understand the rarity of these herbs and therefore couldn't grasp what they represented.
"You all wait here for a moment. I'll go discuss something. This patch of medicinal herbs is ours to claim."
As Zhang Tian spoke, he vanished from his spot right before everyone's eyes.
"Ah? Where did Young Master Zhang go?"
"No way, could Young Master Zhang be able to turn invisible?"
Xiao Guang exclaimed in surprise, watching Zhang Tian disappear.
Although Zhang Tian had shown many extraordinary things, this ability to vanish into thin air was indeed quite astonishing.
"Boss just went to scout around. Don't act so shocked," Fatty said, waving his hand with a nonchalant expression.
Professor Li, standing nearby, adjusted his glasses. He seemed to have caught a glimpse of Zhang Tian entering some kind of space for a brief moment.
The reflection in his glasses had shown him a fleeting image.
However, Professor Li felt as if he were seeing things. In this world, there existed another world? How was that possible?
Zhang Tian was now standing within the illusory space.
He looked at the medicinal herbs he had thrown in earlier.
All the herbs had been piled on the ground, forming small mounds.
His gaze shifted to the side. Perhaps because Zhang Tian had entered, Queen Jing Jue was now sitting on her coffin.
"Um, did you see these medicinal herbs?"
Zhang Tian blinked.
He felt a bit awkward.
He didn't know how to phrase it. After all, Queen Jing Jue wasn't his subordinate. Asking for her help was purely dependent on her mood.
"Hmm?"
Queen Jing Jue simply hummed in response, her eyes fixed on Zhang Tian.
"I'd like to ask for your help in planting these medicinal herbs. Of course, once the pills are refined, I'll share some with you," Zhang Tian said softly.
Upon hearing this, Queen Jing Jue immediately stood up. Her figure moved almost instantly, appearing before Zhang Tian.
"Are you asking this Queen to do your bidding?"
Queen Jing Jue's voice was low, and she didn't open her eyes to look at Zhang Tian.
Zhang Tian touched his cheek.
"No, it's just cooperation. This is your world too. I believe we should strive to build this world, rather than treating it as just a mere space, don't you think?"
Zhang Tian shook his head repeatedly.
After Zhang Tian finished speaking, Queen Jing Jue finally shifted her gaze.
"Alright."
"But, don't forget your promise."
With that, in Zhang Tian's eyes, Queen Jing Jue waved her hand, and the medicinal herbs began to take root in the ground one by one.
Soon, the ground, which had been a messy pile, now looked much tidier.
"There might be more later, so I'll trouble you again."
Zhang Tian left the illusory space without waiting for her reply.
If he stayed longer, Zhang Tian worried that Queen Jing Jue might change her mind.
With labor secured, Zhang Tian no longer hesitated, his gaze fixed on the medicinal herbs before him.
"Everyone, pick those medicinal herbs and hand them all to me once collected," Zhang Tian instructed.
As Zhang Tian spoke, the group nodded repeatedly, and then, amidst the sea of flowers, Zhang Tian and the others could be seen constantly moving.
Fortunately, these flowers were not poisonous, otherwise, it would have been more troublesome.
Soon, a large pile of red flower buds had gathered beside Zhang Tian.
Zhang Tian roughly counted them. There were at least several hundred plants.
Such a massive number truly pleased Zhang Tian.
Then, with a wave of his hand, the large flowers were all sent into the spatial dimension.
Zhang Tian was happy with his work, but it was at the expense of Queen Jing Jue, who was toiling like a beast of burden.
The herbs she had just planted were immediately replaced by many more that Zhang Tian threw in.
This made Queen Jing Jue almost too weary to bother.
However, having already agreed to Zhang Tian, she would not break her word.
Looking at the bare plains, with only small grasses remaining, Zhang Tian nodded with satisfaction.
"Boss, did we pick too clean?" Fatty scratched his head.
"Not at all, it's just right," Zhang Tian replied.
This type of pill could help cultivators restore their blood and qi. If Zhang Tian's vital blood were to be excessively depleted in the future, he could use the pills made from these herbs for recovery.
It could be considered an extremely rare and valuable pill.
"By the way, Young Master Zhang, will we kill these flowers by picking them all? Without soil, won't they only survive for twenty-four hours?" Professor Li stood before Zhang Tian, a look of confusion on his face.
Zhang Tian shook his head.
"I have my ways. You don't need to worry about it."
"Let's go. We'll continue towards the Golden Summit. I wonder if there will be anything else along the way."
Zhang Tian said, walking ahead.
Professor Li seemed to be too curious.
His question was actually a probe towards Zhang Tian.
He wanted to know how Zhang Tian had disappeared and reappeared earlier.
But Zhang Tian didn't answer, which disappointed Professor Li somewhat.
"Boss, this Golden Summit looks really high."
"If we have to walk up, it will take ages," Fatty muttered, looking up at the sky.
Zhang Tian felt nothing. He was now only hoping to find more medicinal herbs.
Even if they didn't reach the Tomb of the Medicine King, Zhang Tian felt it would be worthwhile if they could find more medicinal herbs.
Soon, the group passed through a large area of grass.
Then, staircases appeared before them.
The stairs wound and twisted, looking like a small snake.
Above the stairs, the mist obscured the top.
"Sigh."
Upon seeing the stairs, Zhang Tian let out a sigh of disappointment.
Stairs meant no more medicinal herbs nearby, right?
How could Zhang Tian not be frustrated?
"I didn't expect Boss to be so impressed by the height. It's okay, if you can't walk anymore, Fatty will carry you," Fatty chuckled.
Zhang Tian shot him a glare. This height was probably only perceived as high by Fatty.
