Chapter 861 - Chapter 861 - The Mission Completed (4th Update)

Chu Feng was extremely anxious because he didn't understand why this powerful woman named Dan Tai Xue would leave the most precious medicinal herb alone and instead pick the most common herbs here.

Chu Feng was very worried. He was concerned that Dan Tai Xue was an odd person. She didn't need the precious medicinal herbs. Instead, she needed those not particularly rare ones. If that was the case, then it meant that Dan Tai Xue would ignore that medicinal herb and that, in turn, she wouldn't help Chu Feng and would completely break through the protective barrier.

That protective barrier was very strong. Although the most terrifying attack method was gone, it was now like a toothless tiger that had been pulled out of its mouth. But even a tiger is a tiger, and even without its teeth, Chu Feng couldn't guarantee that he could subdue it with his current strength.

However, Chu Feng's worry seemed to be unnecessary because after a period of time, Chu Feng noticed some clues from Dan Tai Xue's increasingly cheerful state.

It turned out that Dan Tai Xue didn't just like relatively ordinary medicinal herbs. Instead, she collected items from the lowest to the highest, from the poorest to the best. It was one of her habits.

She started from the most valuable and least common medicinal herbs and then gradually moved towards the more precious ones. For her, this was a very enjoyable process, and she was now enjoying it.

But this worried Chu Feng greatly because she was picking them one by one. Even if she picked them very fast, but with all the medicinal herbs on the mountain, when she finished all of them, it would take at least several days. Chu Feng didn't want to stay here without eating, drinking, defecating or urinating for several days.

"Whir"

"Chir chir chir" However, it seemed that fate helped Chu Feng. Just when Chu Feng was at a loss for what to do, the medicinal herb that was hiding within the protective barrier suddenly emerged from the underground.

The movement of that medicinal herb naturally caught Dan Tai Xue's attention, so Dan Tai Xue couldn't help but turn her gaze towards that medicinal plant.

However, when that medicinal plant saw Dan Tai Xue's gaze, it was so bold that it waved its branches and leaves at Dan Tai Xue, making a provocative gesture. Then it retreated into the underground and hid within the protective barrier.

"This is sheer suicide." That action of the medicinal plant successfully aroused Dan Tai Xue's anger. As her body trembled slightly, she vanished on the mountain peak in an instant.

"Boom" And just as Dan Tai Xue disappeared, a rumbling came from underground. It was Dan Tai Xue's doing. She entered the underground without a trace and was breaking the protective barrier.

And just a moment after that rumbling, Dan Tai Xue's figure appeared again on the mountain peak, and in her hand, there was already a medicinal herb. That was the medicinal herb here.

Dan Tai Xue's teleportation ability was too advanced. She could even cross the soil silently and without a sound on the third level of the immortal realm.

But at this moment, Chu Feng had no mood to look at these things because his gaze was completely attracted by the slight change that was too faint for ordinary people to notice on the mountain peak.

He was staring at a place, which was a rock wall at the bottom of the mountain peak. This rock looked ordinary, but in fact, it was an entrance, and this entrance had already opened at this moment.

"Finally succeeded. After waiting for so long and with so many variables, I finally broke through the protective barrier."

At this moment, Chu Feng was extremely excited. Not only had the protective barrier been broken by Dan Tai Xue, but the entrance as predicted by Chu Feng had also completely opened. As long as Chu Feng entered it, he could find the hidden celestial substances here.

At this point, Chu Feng no longer stayed here and was moving carefully towards the entrance.

Although Chu Feng's current concealment method took a long time and was carefully arranged, facing such an unpredictable master like Dan Tai Xue, he couldn't be careless at all. Instead, he moved carefully from the high altitude towards the bottom of the mountain peak.

This took up most of the day... When Chu Feng reached the bottom of the mountain peak, it was already late at night.

At the top of the mountain, golden light kept emerging, and Dan Tai Xue did not rest but continued to pick medicinal herbs, enjoying this wonderful process.

As for Chu Feng, he was even more excited at this moment because he had already passed through that wall and entered a cave.

When he entered the cave, Chu Feng's heart was beating rapidly. He could feel an indescribable energy filling the entire cave, and the source of this energy was attracting him to move deeper.

Finally, Chu Feng reached the area where the energy was the most intense. Chu Feng could see that at the very end of this very narrow cave, there was an odd stone, and the strange energy that made him feel extremely comfortable came from this stone.

This stone was so beautiful. Although it was a stone, its shape was more like a tree, resembling a willow tree. No wonder the strongest attack method of the protective array it extended was several branches.

But obviously, this stone was not a tree. Because the violent power it contained had already told Chu Feng its identity. It was the strange creature of this place.

"Finally, I found you." At this moment, Chu Feng couldn't be happier. The joyous smile couldn't be controlled and flowed freely across his face. He was truly laughing uncontrollably.

Although he was happy, Chu Feng was also clear about the current situation, so he did not carefully observe. Instead, he hurriedly used the barrier technique to cut off the connection between this strange creature and this place.

This strange creature was nurtured within this mountain peak. The mountain peak was like its mother, and it had a connection with it. Only by cutting off these connections could it be taken away. And after cutting off this connection, this mountain peak would lose that special power.

After cutting off the connection between the strange creature and the mountain peak, Chu Feng specially arranged a simple array to wrap the strange creature and then put it in the, turned around and fled.

At this moment, Dan Tai Xue at the top of the mountain was picking medicinal herbs vigorously and naturally did not notice Chu Feng's actions.

And when Chu Feng felt that he had already escaped from Dan Tai Xue's sensing range, he hurriedly displayed the supreme secret skill of the Blue Dragon Rapid Movement, according to the path he came, to escape quickly.

As for the old site of the Burning Heaven Holy Order, whether there were other treasures there, Chu Feng was too lazy to care. Because of the terrifying existence of Dan Tai Xue, Chu Feng was also afraid of other variables, so he had to stop when he saw a good opportunity. Now, he was leaving.

As for the third immortal, Chu Feng wasn't worried either. He believed that the third immortal was already a frightened bird, and once he escaped from this place, he would surely head to a safe place to recuperate and wouldn't dare to stay for long.

And since the third immortal had already fled, naturally he wouldn't send any other powerful figures from the Islands to this place to die. So Chu Feng thought that this was the best time to leave this place. Otherwise, if the powerful figures from the Islands arrived, it would be a serious disaster.

In fact, just as Chu Feng had predicted, until Chu Feng crossed the ice killing array and returned to the snowy plain, he didn't see a single person from the Islands, who had calmly left this troubled place.

However, not long after Chu Feng left, the numerous medicinal herbs on the peak of the mountain began to wither. Almost all the medicinal herbs that had not been picked died in the blink of an eye.

"How could this be?"

For this sudden change, Dai Tai Xue's emotions changed greatly. She felt bewildered and helpless.
