Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 940 – The King

However, even if there was an existence of a thousand year old ginseng king in this forest, those people only needed to act and fight for it. Why were they all hiding in the forest and not moving?

Yang Junshan secretly pondered, and even ignored the few thoughts of wanting to come into contact with them, finally letting him think of an interesting rumor.

did not know if this was true or false, but what he was saying was that the older the spirit ginseng, the more intelligent it was. Sometimes, when it was felt that it was dangerous, it might even be possible for it to escape on its own.

However, the Spirit Ginseng cultivated by the Yang Family was rarely older than a hundred years. Furthermore, every Spirit Ginseng would be protected by a special restriction when it matured, so it was not possible for the ‘escape’ of the ‘Spirit Ginseng.

Could it be that the hidden cultivators in the mountain forest had not made a move because they were afraid that the thousand year old ginseng king would disappear?

Yang Junshan was in disbelief, his soul remembrance had already carefully expanded, trying to find more, older spirit ginseng.

However, just as his soul remembrance caught sight of a 500 year old Spirit Ginseng that could even gather the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, just as he was secretly pleasantly surprised, his expression suddenly froze. That Spirit Ginseng had actually disappeared from his soul remembrance!

Did he really, really escape?

Yang Junshan’s soul thought immediately spread out to the surroundings, with the location where he had discovered the 500 year old Spirit Ginseng, attempting to once again trace the traces of the Spirit Ginseng.

This time, it did not matter. The 500 year-old Spirit Ginseng could not be found, and the 300 year-old Spirit Ginseng that was just discovered was not at its original location. Instead, it appeared under the shade of a tree that was previously searched by his soul consciousness.

The spirit ginseng moved again, but Yang Junshan was no longer surprised, he had calmed down and started to think about the reason.

Perhaps these Spirit Ginseng really did have the instinct to seek profit and avoid harm. However, there was also the possibility that the array formations densely packed within the mountain forest were messing with them.

Previously, although Yang Junshan had used a formation in the mountain forest to expel Song Yunguang, and seized Song Yunguang’s original position, the few hidden Dao Patriarchs thought that Yang Junshan had the skills of a formation master.

But in truth, Yang Junshan himself knew that his array formation attainment was very close to becoming a Grandmaster, but in truth, he was still lacking by a tiny bit. The reason he was able to borrow the power of the formation restrictions in the mountain was mostly because of his Dianthus and the array stealing secret techniques, allowing him to easily find the weaknesses and loopholes in the formation restrictions.

Thinking about all this, Yang Junshan’s soul consciousness flowed once again. However, this time, it was not searching for spirit ginseng in the forest, but rather, it had fused with the network of the huge tree beside him, and then, it went all the way down to the root of the tree. At this moment, he would discover that the entire forest had formed a huge network of roots underground.

Of course, only an array master like Yang Junshan was able to identify the foundation of the formation, and other cultivators might not even be able to integrate their soul remembrance into the Lin wood vein Meridian.

Furthermore, Yang Junshan could even feel that the formation restrictions formed by the underground roots network, were only a small part of the gigantic Formation System. With his array knowledge, although Yang Junshan was able to find an even larger Formation System behind the formation, he himself did not have the ability to discover it.

Aesult, although he could not grasp the formation restrictions of this forest and could not see the whole picture, he could only observe a small part of the forest without affecting the operation of the formation, and quickly discovered the “escape” of the Spirit Ginseng through the roots.

One, two, three.

“Hmm?”

Yang Junshan was startled.

Through the channels in the underground roots, Yang Junshan was able to grasp the positions of six Spirit Ginseng within a radius of 300 metres, and the age of each Spirit Ginseng was oveundred years, which included the “location” of the 500 year old Spirit Ginseng that disappeared under the protection of the formation, making Yang Junshan very excited.

Just as Yang Junshan was trying to see if he could borrow the power of the underground to expand the search radius, he suddenly found a powerful life force, and in the surrounding area of this powerful life force, there was a network of roots that was even denser than other Spirit Ginseng, these countless vegetation gathered and formed a tight encirclement, just likuge cocoon, it was obviously protecting this life force!

Yang Junshan’s soul intent carefully went forward to try and touch it, but it was blocked by the meridians in the root system, and he could not even pinpoint the approximate location of the immense life force!

Could that be where the thousand year old ginseng king was?

Yang Junshan’s heart burned with passion, just as he was planning oulan to obtain a thousand year old ginseng king, a wave of spiritual energy that was not strong, but was definitely memorable suddenly appeared in the forest, instantly attracting the attention of all the hidden cultivators.

“It’s out!”

“Is there really such a spirited object?”

“Let’s rely on our own methods!”

The forest was in an uproar, but Yang Junshan was actually slightly stunned. Even though he was unable to pinpoint the exact location of the thousand year old Ginseng King, he was sure that it was not the direction of the spirit energy wave from before.

But why was this fluctuation of spiritual energy able to attract the attention of all the hidden cultivators?

Were they mistaken?

Yang Junshan immediately rejected this idea. In this world, there could not be only Yang Junshan, this intelligent person, not to mention the fact that there were a few other Daofathers hiding within.

Could it be that his previous discovery wasn’t that of a thousand year old ginseng king? Or could it be said that the Spiritual Energy fluctuation that had appeared represented a Spiritual Being that was above the thousand year Ginseng King?

“Hee hee!”

Just as Yang Junshan’s mind was wavering, a clear laugh suddenly sounded out in the mountain forest, instantly causing the crisscrossing spiritual senses in the forest to scatter. It was as though Yang Junshan had heard the breathing of the people who were hiding!

Yang Junshan’s heart trembled. He suddenly thought of a possibility, and a look of disbelief surfaced on his face. Could it be that there really was such a legendary existence?

Instantly, under the perception of Yang Junshan’s soul intent, even the existences hidden in the mountains and forests started to move!

The originally stable Spiritual Energy of the world instantly began to stir violently. This was because someone was already preparing to make a move, and soon, a series of rumbling sounds could be heard from the forest. Someone had already started to fight, but they were doing their best to control the power of their attacks as if they were all afraid of each other.

Yang Junshan’s soul perception could keenly sense that the array restrictions in the entire forest had changed, like many bows that were being pulled, ready to erupt at any time. Everyone seemed to know that there was a limit to the array restrictions in the forest, and when they were fighting, they were trying their best to keep the power of their sacred art within a certain range.

“Giggle!”

The crisp laughter continued to reverberate in the forest. The origin of the laughter was erratic, as if it didn’t care about the danger in the forest at all.

Yang Junshan’s soul consciousness fused into the root channel, but discovered that the originally stable meridian actually became restless like never before.

Yang Junshan muttered to himself, his figure flashing through the forest, he had already arrived at the location of the hundred year old Spirit Ginseng.

A palm-sized Spirit Ginseng along with its regular whiskers started to slowly appear from the soil. After a while, Yang Junshan dug out a complete Spirit Ginseng from the ground, and then used the Spirit Sealing Technique to carefully seal every beard of the Spirit Ginseng. Only then did Yang Junshan place this Spirit Sealing Ginseng into a Spirit Sealing Box.

However, after he kept the Spirit Ginseng, Yang Junshan did not go and dig for more Spirit Ginseng. Instead, he looked at the pile of dirt that was being dug out from the ground with uncertainty.

Yang Junshan’s soul remembrance was able to sense that there were at least three different soul intents paying attention to his position. In the end, Yang Junshan chose to quietly turn around and leave.

The battles in the forest became more and more intense as muffled groans and low curses rang out incessantly. The Spiritual Energy fluctuations that were being suppressed became more and more difficult to control. The fight in the forest was on the verge of losing control.

Yang Junshan’s figure flashed and arrived at the location of the three-hundred-year-old Spirit Ginseng.

But just as he was bending over to dig, a dried up branch suddenly fell from the tree above his head, transforming into a flying sword that flew down straight towards Yang Junshan’s head.

However, Yang Junshan did not seem to sense the danger above his head, and continued to squat down.

Crack!

The flying sword flew into Yang Junshan’s body, but seemed to have pierced through a mirage.

“How could that be?”

A surprised voice came from behind the tree.

Yang Junshan was still squatting on the ground, just like before, only he was separated from his original position by a distance of more than a Zhang, while the 300 year old Spirit Ginseng was also in front of him, following the movements of the soil, even those fine whiskers had been tidied up, for the originally seven inch long Spirit Ginseng, adding the huge Spirit Ginseng, it would not be able to cover more than three feet.

In just an instant, the 300-year-old Spirit Ginseng had already been in his hands, while the flying sword had once again made a nimble turn in mid air, and silently thrusted towards Yang Junshan’s back.

However, Yang Junshan did not seem to be aware of it. He stood up and took two steps forward, the flying sword once again pierced througuge tree, but Yang Junshan had already disappeared without a trace.

From the start, Yang Junshan did not even open his eyes to look at the person who ambushed him, this silent contempt caused the sword cultivator to feel a deep sense of humiliation, but at the same time, he also felt a sense of fear.

Could this be the strength of a formation master?

The sword cultivator reached out to recall his flying sword, and after protecting his body, he carefully walked out of the forest. He didn’t even care about the Spirit Ginseng in the forest.

At this time, Yang Junshan was standing at the location where he sensed the 500 year old Spirit Ginseng, but the Spirit Ginseng was gone, even if he went through the veins on the underground roots, he would not be able to find the location of the Spirit Ginseng.

In the end, he found traces of soil being moved in a crevice of a tree. The Spirit Ginseng had already been taken by someone.

“Ha ha!”

The crisp laughter continued to reverberate in the forest.
