Then… was it caused by the Blood Yang Flower?
No, it can’t be. In the ‘Divine wilderness’ book, there were detailed descriptions of the Blood Yang Flower, and it did not have such an ability.
The Blood Yang Flower’s ability was to grow out its leaves to absorb the Yang Qi when it was safe. When danger approached, they would pull back their leaves and hide themselves.
This was a very simple ability, and probably was not even called an ability. Spiritual herbs were inferior to desolate beasts. Those beast general or beast king-ranked desolate beasts could easily destroy a tribe, and a primordial species beast could even destroy a city.
But a spiritual herb was not as dangerous.
Even the highest ranked spiritual herbs were helpless after having been picked. Their fate was to be thrown into an elixir furnace.
The problem was that picking high ranked spiritual herbs was not an easy feat!
If it was not the Blood Yang Flower that caused the illusions, then what was it?
Yi Yun pushed his spiritual energy to its maximum and the vision from the Purple Crystal turned clearer!
Without all the distractions present, Yi Yun finally saw it. In his energy vision, he could see two energy blobs.
One was bigger and it was the size of a wash basin. It was blood-red in color and it seemed to burn like a flame. The energy belonged to the Blood Yang Flower!
Previously, when Yi Yun was about to pluck the Blood Yang Flower, just before he touched it, he had suddenly be transported to the graveyard, where he met the endless stream of corpses.
And not far from the Blood Yang Flower, there was a tiny energy light that shocked Yi Yun.
That energy blob was like a rod, it was about a foot long and as thick as a wrist.
Its energy was extremely obscure. Compared to the Blood Yang Flower, it was much dimmer, but this dim energy light made Yi Yun jump!
The pureness of the energy within it was beyond Yi Yun’s imagination!
Only the energy that Yi Yun drew out from the chimera in the Wilderness Divine Hall was comparable to it.
What is this?
Similar in pureness to a primordial essence, could it be…
A thought suddenly flashed through Yi Yun’s mind. This thought made his heart race and his breaths shorten.
Could it be a primordial herb?
Above the Heaven-ranked herbs, there were primordial herbs, immortal herbs, primal herbs and other different strains of divine medicine.
These precious herbs would even make a human sage covet them!
In the Tai Ah Divine City, the Divine City’s Elders will occasionally leave the Tai Ah Divine City to search for herbs in the herb mountain. At their level, Heaven, Earth, Mystic, Yellow-ranked herbs were all useless. Naturally, they only searched for primordial herbs!
Primordial herbs were difficult to pick. But for the Divine City’s Elders, with their cultivation level and methods, as long as they found a primordial herb, they would definitely be able to get it.
The crux of the issue is… they couldn’t find any!
Even in the Tai Ah Divine City herb mountain, there were too few primordial herbs. They may find one with luck, but not by searching for it!
And the important point is, primordial herbs had a spirit within them. Their ways were to hide themselves and confuse the enemy. So someone might not even know it was one when they passed by it!
Human sages had keen senses. Even people with absolute talent at sensing, like Zhong Yi, could not compare to human sages.
The problem was, when a human sage entered a herb mountain, the primordial herb would hide far away, preventing the human sage from finding or picking it.
And it is this reason that made it difficult for a human sage to pick a primordial herb!
Different ideas flashed within Yi Yun’s mind as his heart raced!
