When the fifth halo gradually brightened, Jiang Zhao and his group had already arrived at the forest.
The Wanshou Mountains are extremely large, and the landforms are complex and varied.
Jiang Zhao looked at the big lake beneath his feet and fell silent.
She was very familiar with this lake. When she was strolling in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountains, she had gone down to the lake to hunt ferocious beasts.
At that time, the lake had not yet fully formed and was much smaller in area, and the ferocious beasts living under the lake were not very powerful.
In just over a hundred years, what has happened to this lake to become so vast?
Jiang Zhao could think of only the word "vast" to describe it.
She stood on the cliff and looked into the distance. The emerald green lake was like an upside-down emerald in the mountains and forests, dazzling and so large that the end was invisible.
The small islands on the lake look like floating flowers dotted on jade.
Tang Xiao exclaimed softly and asked quietly, "Senior, does the spiritual medicine grow on the island in the lake? But why can't I see the specific location of the halo?"
Jiang Zhao retracted his gaze and said calmly, "The halo is just a sign that the elixir has matured. You still need to find the specific location yourself."
Mo Huanyan looked at the figures appearing on the cliffs around him and couldn't help but say, "There are many islands, many people, and even more ferocious beasts."
"More is normal, less is abnormal." Jiang Zhao smiled, turned and walked to the other side of the cliff, found a rock to sit on.
"Senior, aren't you going down to look for it now?" Yan Zichen asked anxiously.
Jiang Zhao shook his head. "No hurry, let's go down later."
Tang Xiao's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it?"
Jiang Zhao still shook his head. In the fight for the elixir, there was only the last hunter, no oriole.
Seeing that Jiang Zhao didn't say anything, the others stopped talking and sat next to Jiang Zhao, starting their long and anxious wait.
Team after team appeared on the cliff. Some followed Jiang Zhao and his team's example and waited to rest there, while others went directly down to the lake, hoping to seize the elixir as soon as possible.
The sun slowly sets, and the sunset glow dyes the entire lake orange, like a huge curtain gently covering the lake.
Jiang Zhao retreated from the Juntian Tower. The spiritual energy in his meridians had been condensed to the extreme, and he only needed an opportunity to build his foundation.
When he opened his eyes, the sharp light flashed and disappeared, and was instantly hidden deep in his eyes.
Jiang Zhao let out a long breath and started practicing again. Even though he had a natural spiritual root, the progress of the Nine Heavens Divine Desolate Art was still slow.
Fortunately, it is a complete set of exercises, and I no longer have to stumble and fall while practicing it like in my previous life.
Jiang Zhao stood up, rubbed Cang Cang, who was swinging his tail boredly, and said, "Let's go to the lake."
Mo Huanyan and others had been waiting for a long time. Yan Zichen pulled over the raft they had made earlier, and Jiang Zhao looked at it with a bit of a dilemma.
"The raft is pretty good." Jiang Zhao praised with a smile.
Yan Zichen winked at his fellow disciples with some pride, with a proud expression on his face as if he was being praised by a senior.
The six people and one beast walked down the path on the cliff. When they stepped on the lake, Yan Zichen's face fell.
The emerald green lake surface is surprisingly like a mirror. You can step on it and walk on it. It sways up and down and left and right with the waves, appearing extremely soft and yet extremely hard.
"Senior, you already knew that the lake surface can be walked on, so why are you praising my raft?"
Yan Zichen pulled the rope of the raft, not knowing whether to throw it or not, and muttered in dissatisfaction.
Jiang Zhao explained with a smile: "I'm praising your craftsmanship. Besides, I haven't experienced riding a raft on the lake yet. I wonder if it slides like a sled."
"I haven't experienced this either. I've only ridden rafts in the water before. I wonder if this raft on the lake will be faster."
Tang Xiao also said this, looking at Yan Zichen with anticipation.
Jiang Zhao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Let's try it together."
As he spoke, the six people and one beast boarded the raft. Yan Zichen tried to use his spiritual power as a paddle, urging it to push the raft.
With just a little effort, the raft slid across the lake for seventy or eighty feet. Not only was it less tiring than walking, it was also faster and more stable.
Yan Zichen immediately beamed and called out to Mo Huanyan, "Brother Mo, come and try it. It's very labor-saving."
Upon hearing this, Mo Huanyan also tried it, and the raft rushed out in another direction.
Jiang Zhao watched the interaction between the two brothers and suddenly said, "The five of you take turns pushing the raft. Control your strength and push it nine feet at a time. No more, no less."
Mo Huanyan and the others were stunned for a moment, but soon realized that it was Jiang Zhao who was instructing them.
The five people pushed the raft, and from being hesitant at the beginning to being able to do it with ease later on, their speed gradually increased.
Jiang Zhao sat at the front of the raft holding Cang Cang. The evening breeze blew on his face, and a faint fragrance filled the air.
"bite!"
"A yellow-grade spiritual medicine has been detected near the host. Do you want to pick it?"
Jiang Zhao was speechless. She hadn't even seen the elixirs yet, yet she was asked if she should pick them. Where could she pick them?!
"What elixir is it?"
Jiang Zhao tried to ask.
"Five Immortal Spirit Vine, a yellow-grade elixir, one of the essential ingredients for upgrading the Qiluo Nishang vestments, has a detoxifying effect."
The system gave a very polite answer.
Jiang Zhao recalled carefully. More than a hundred years ago, she had seen the Five Fairy Vine on the island. It was just a small vine with a branch.
I was just passing by at that time, and seeing that the vine was too small, I was too lazy to pull it out.
Unexpectedly, in more than a hundred years, it grew into a highly sought-after high-level elixir.
Jiang Zhao sighed. It was really hard to buy it even if he had spirit stones. If he had known it earlier, it would be useless to regret it now.
