351: Immortal medicine! A huge gathering place for immortals, demons and beasts!
After receiving orders, the members of the squad walked out of the camp one after another. Since they could not fly, the group ran off in a random direction.
Lu Hao rode the Stubborn Ox, walking at the front of the team, with Zhuo Yongyi naturally in front of him.
At this moment, he was holding the map of the outer ruins, constantly comparing it.
"Captain Zhuo, where are we going?"
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I don't know. Regardless, let's get further away first. When the time comes, we'll let these people scatter to search for Immortal Demon Beast groups. Once the scouting is done, we can mark the locations, and later, lead the main force to surround and annihilate them."
Lu Hao nodded and said nothing more.
He slightly released his Divine Sense.
Inside the ruins, not only was flight forbidden, but there was also a force blocking the spread of Divine Sense. Under this force, perhaps even the Wuji Daoist would at most be able to scout a range of over a hundred miles.
However, Lu Hao sensed slightly; his detection limit was roughly within ten million miles, covering approximately one percent of the ruin area.
For Cultivators from the outside world, this was already an incredible feat. If they had such a wide-ranging detection method, the interior of these ruins would have been thoroughly looted by them long ago.
Within the range of Lu Hao's Divine Sense, every blade of grass and tree within ten million miles was reflected in his mind.
There were no fewer than thousands of Immortal Demon Beast gathering places of various sizes. Lu Hao even discovered an Immortal Plant and Immortal Medicine three hundred thousand miles to the north!
It was a nine-colored flower. On each colored petal, there was a pattern, densely covered with intricate markings, with wisps of Immortal Qi constantly swirling within them.
Lu Hao had the intention to go and harvest this Immortal Medicine, so he said to Zhuo Yongyi:
"Captain Zhuo, how about we go in this direction? I feel that there might be more Immortal Demon Beasts here."
Zhuo Yongyi looked at Lu Hao with some curiosity and asked doubtfully:
"Fellow Daoist Lu, that place is a ten-thousand-year glacier. It is rumored that it was formed by the Ice Dao of two powerful experts. There are very few types of Immortal Demon Beasts that can survive in a ten-thousand-year glacier, let alone groups of them."
Lu Hao smiled and said:
"Captain Zhuo, if you are willing to trust me, let's head in this direction. My intuition has always been very accurate."
"Uh... this..."
Zhuo Yongyi was clearly hesitant.
His original plan for this trip was to head all the way south, because according to the map, the south was a very vast plain area. In such an environment, the number of gathered Immortal Demon Beasts should be the highest.
At the very least, when he came to the ruins last time, he had stayed in the southern region for a full year. Although he did not obtain any Legacy, Magic Treasure, or Cultivation Technique, the Immortal Demon Beasts he hunted allowed him to successfully refine three wisps of Immortal Qi.
Therefore, after leaving the ruins, he immediately returned to his residence and began secluded meditation. In just three years, his cultivation broke through from the Late Stage of Mahayana all the way to the Middle Stage of Undergoing Tribulation!
This was the immense effect of Immortal Qi on Cultivators, and it was the reason why so many Cultivators risked great danger to come to the ruins.
As long as one didn't die here, one could basically guarantee collecting at least one wisp of Immortal Qi. That was a genuine stroke of fortune!
Zhuo Yongyi originally planned to do the same as last time. Now that his cultivation had reached the Great Perfection of Undergoing Tribulation, he should have a chance to obtain more Immortal Qi.
In his heart, this trip to the ruins would only be considered a success if he obtained at least ten wisps of Immortal Qi.
Zhuo Yongyi looked at Lu Hao, whose expression carried immense confidence and composure, seemingly giving Zhuo Yongyi a very reassuring feeling.
Although he felt that Lu Hao's words were somewhat unreasonable, there was a faint voice in his heart constantly telling him: Listen to Lu Hao, it definitely won't be wrong!
Thus, after a moment of struggle, Zhuo Yongyi took a deep breath, a determined look appearing in his eyes:
"Pass the order down: head north!"
Hearing this, Lu Hao smiled with satisfaction. It seemed this person wasn't stupid; he could still grasp the Opportunity delivered to his doorstep.
In Lu Hao's mind, the area around that Immortal Medicine was densely packed with a large number of Immortal Demon Beasts. At a rough glance, there were at least one hundred thousand of them!
This was clearly a super-large Immortal Demon Beast gathering place!
Generally, when about one hundred Immortal Demon Beasts gather together, it is called a small gathering place. Such gathering places are relatively common and are also the easiest for Cultivators to find.
The leading Immortal Demon Beast generally has a cultivation base above the Middle Stage of Mahayana.
Those with around one thousand Immortal Demon Beasts are called medium-sized gathering places. These gathering places are slightly fewer in number, but if one searches carefully, they can always be found. The leaders of such gathering places generally have a cultivation base above the Middle Stage of Undergoing Tribulation.
Those with around ten thousand Immortal Demon Beasts are called large gathering places. These are very rare and generally only appear in the Core Region; they basically cannot exist in the outer areas!
Moreover, the leading Immortal Demon Beasts of large gathering places often have a cultivation base above the sixth layer of Nascent Void. In the outer areas, indeed, no faction can deal with such gathering places.
As for the gathering place that Lu Hao observed, it was a super-large gathering place that was extremely rare even in the Core Region!
Under normal circumstances, the leader of a super-large Immortal Demon Beast gathering place would almost possess a cultivation base of the sixth or seventh layer of Yang Solid or even higher. Among the Cultivators who entered the ruins this time, apart from Lu Hao, only Dragon Zimo had the strength to contend with it.
Therefore, in many cases, even if one really found a super-large Immortal Demon Beast gathering place, one would basically just stare at it helplessly, unable to hunt them.
However, the gathering place that Lu Hao found was vastly different from other gathering places!
Although it was not lacking in quantity, with fully over one hundred thousand Immortal Demon Beasts!
However, these one hundred thousand-plus Immortal Demon Beasts in this gathering place did not have a unified leader. If one had to say, perhaps that stalk of Immortal Medicine was their leader!
These one hundred thousand-plus Immortal Demon Beasts were composed of hundreds of different ethnic groups mixed together, and their strength was far from that of a normal super-large Immortal Demon Beast gathering place.
The one hundred thousand-plus Immortal Demon Beasts, arranged according to their strength, surrounded the Immortal Medicine, encircling it three layers deep inside and three layers deep outside.
These Immortal Demon Beasts were a mixed bag, with all kinds of types among them, but they did not conflict with each other; instead, they gathered together very harmoniously.
The Immortal Medicine, surrounded by the Immortal Demon Beasts in the center, was slightly swaying its petals. Each time it swayed, the markings on the petals would emit a slight light, subsequently causing a tidal fluctuation of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi!
And these ten thousand-plus Immortal Demon Beasts on the periphery were right here, constantly receiving the baptism of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi!
