Needless to say, the herb garden of a Thearch was extremely valuable.
Although many precious herbs had been kept away before they became immortal, the normal herbs that were left behind became precious too after growing for thousands of years.
Most of them could not last that long, but they could provide nutrients for the soil after they withered.
The subsequent seeds that germinated in this soil could get much better nutrients for their growth and could become supreme-grade herbs and sometimes even Sage-grade.
Also, most of the Thearches would not keep away all the Sage herbs in the garden before they became immortals.
Some herbs were not good enough to boost their power anymore and would be left behind for others as fortuitous opportunities.
After being there for over 10,000 years, these herbs had become extremely useful and powerful now.
If the Thearchs did place restrictions in their herb gardens to prevent the herbs from getting intelligent, these herbs would become demons. It was extremely easy for a group of Demon Venerables to be born among those supreme-grade herbs given such a long time.
Even a Sage demon was possible too.
Of course, these supreme-grade herbs belonged to Shen Tian now.
Yue Yunde’s eyes opened wide upon seeing the herb garden.
Damn! Damn! Damn!
What the hell? It’s just luck, right?
He found the herb garden just by randomly running around like that?
There were many fortuitous opportunities in Immortal Abode Island as it was the Golden Crow Thearch’s training ground. There were even more in his tomb.
However, the herb garden was one of the best fortuitous opportunities one could encounter.
Most of the Thearches’ tombs found in the five regions were still in the midst of exploring. Only a very limited percentage had been discovered after over 10,000 years.
Important places like the herb gardens, pill rooms, and treasure rooms were nowhere to be found.
Shen Tian had entered the Golden Crow’s tomb for one day and found this herb garden. He was really blessed!
According to Yue Yunde’s calculation, he would need to raid tombs for 500 years before he could get all these goods.
Wait, maybe even 800!
Even Princess Linglong, who came from the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty, looked at Shen Tian with admiration.
Middle Ground had the densest Spirit Qi in the five regions, and it had the most Thearches’ tombs too.
The Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty alone had discovered three tombs. They had invited many domain experts to help with the process, but the results were very limited. After all, it was hard for a normal cultivator to understand what Thearch was thinking.
Since the very beginning of time, only the truly fated ones could obtain big fortuitous opportunities in the Thearches’ tombs.
Or else, they must be a Child of Providence!
If I’m not wrong, Saint Shen Tian should be one of them! No wonder father told me to gain Shen Tian’s favor even if I had to marry him.
Father is right indeed!
Each of them had their little thoughts after seeing the herb garden, but Shen Tian only smiled.
He said calmly, “Most of the herbs in this garden have been here for over 10,000 years. Although they could not manifest their human forms, they have the basic instinct to avoid any danger.
“Most of these herbs can move, and they are aggressive. Please be careful while collecting them.”
Rumble!
The moment Shen Tian stopped speaking, someone flew past him.
Yue Yunde tried to pick a Sunny Fire Grass, but it sprayed fire at him straightaway. His whole body was burning in flame.
The combat power of this Sage herb was comparable to a Heavenly Venerable. In such an environment, maybe the herb was stronger!
This was definitely not for normal cultivators!
If they could manifest, they would be Demon Venerables!
“Damn it! Look at what you’ve done!”
Yue Yunde rolled on the floor continuously. He used some spirit water to put off the fire while suffering in pain. His robe was burned away, and he was in his underwear once again.
Yue Yunde was so angry that he took out his small bronze bell and threw it at the Sunny Fire Grass.
Rumble!
The bell rang, and musical notes were manifested.
The notes looked massive and capable of trapping their target in place.
Shen Tian looked at it with full interest. To be frank, Yue Yunde’s little bell was pretty powerful. It was one of the extreme supreme-grade Sagel artifacts, and it was close to a pseudo-Immortal artifact!
When these notes combined, a mysterious seal array formation was formed, and it could even restrict Shen Tian from using his clones before.
It would be very helpful if he could understand how it worked.
Rumble!
The bell grew bigger and became waves of light that surrounded the Sunny Fire Grass. It was capturing the Sunny Fire Grass slowly.
However, the Sunny Fire Grass did not give up.
Thanks to the herb garden’s special domain, the flames on the grass grew stronger and burned a hole in the array formation before escaping from it!
Woooooo!
It then dived into the earth and disappeared.
The bell slammed onto the ground, but nothing was captured other than a blade of grass.
The Sunny Fire Grass had escaped into the ground and could not be detected by divine consciousness.
“Damn! Almost! I almost had it!” Yue Yunde stomped on the ground in anger. “It was a 10,000-year-old Sage herb! Even this blade here is worth a fortune. How did I let it run away!?”
That was a total loss!
What made Yue Yunde even madder was that many other herbs awoke by the commotion just now.
After sensing their power levels, the precious herbs began to hide underground.
“Take as many as you can before all of them run away!” Princess Linglong reminded them, “Although these herbs may not be very smart, they are proficient in Earth Escape. We can’t do anything once they go underground.”
Then, she looked at Shen Tian.
She was curious how he would handle this situation.
Even if he had great providence, there was no way he could obtain all of these herbs, right?
If he did not make a move quickly, the most valuable Sage herbs would run away.
Shen Tian smiled and said, “Just try your best to pick as many as you can. I’ll deal with those that have escaped.”
Then Shen Tian’s body gave off an intense green light. His hair turned green, and Divine Devouring Vines appeared on his body.
Swoosh!
The earth shook, and Shen Tian disappeared from everyone’s sight.
In the next second, the herb garden’s ground quaked intensity—someone was fighting underground!
