Based on the information obtained from interrogation, Wang Hong first sneaked into the medicinal garden.
Before, the Thousand Crafts Pavilion managed over a hundred medicinal gardens. After being occupied by the Demon Clan, only two gardens remained, with the rest falling into disrepair.
It seemed that both of these gardens contained high-tier Spiritual Herbs, so he needed to visit both.
Avoiding all patrolling Demonic Beasts, he quickly made his way to the outside of the Eastern Herb Garden.
This garden covered over ten acres, protected by a formation, with Demonic Beasts stationed around the perimeter.
After scouting the area, Wang Hong realized that it was almost impossible to enter the garden and harvest the Spiritual Herbs without alerting the Demonic Beasts.
Since avoidance was not an option, he decided to simply eliminate the Demonic Beasts.
Due to the large size of the garden, the stationed Demonic Beasts were not all gathered in one place, providing Wang Hong with the opportunity to pick them off one by one.
At the main entrance of the garden, there were ten Demonic Beasts, currently gossiping.
"I heard that someone sneaked into the Large Formation today. I wonder who has the guts to come in here and seek death."
"Since they dared to sneak in, they must have some skills. I heard that a patrol team was wiped out."
"You might not know, but Elder Jinya was leading that patrol team. It's said that he was also killed by the intruder."
"How is that possible? Elder Jinya is a third-tier Demonic Beast. It's not so easy to kill him."
As one of the Demonic Beasts said this, it seemed to remember something and turned to look behind.
"Xiaoya, Elder Jinya is your grandfather, do you kn—"
The Demonic Beast's words were cut off halfway, as if its throat had been grabbed, its eyes wide open.
There were three other Demonic Beasts behind it, but how did they suddenly disappear?
At that moment, a large hand reached over from the side, covering its mouth, while another hand held a thin needle that effortlessly pierced its heart.
Before the Demonic Beast could let out a scream, it had already become a lifeless body, silently taken into Wang Hong's space.
"Hu Yue, your habit of only saying half of what you mean, when will you change? I'll—"
At this moment, another Demonic Beast in front also turned around, but its words also stopped halfway.
"What's wrong with you all? Where—"
At this point, a Demonic Beast in front turned around, only to find that out of their original group of ten, only two remained.
A dark figure appeared like a ghost, reaching out towards the two, and then the consciousness of the two Demonic Beasts fell into eternal darkness.
After dealing with the ten Demonic Beasts at the main entrance, Wang Hong quietly killed the remaining Demonic Beasts in other areas.
Only then did he begin to dismantle the formation. The formation guarding the garden was a third-tier formation. While eliminating the stationed Demonic Beasts, Wang Hong had already observed this formation to a great extent.
With his current level of formation cultivation and the powerful Divine Sense of the Nascent Soul stage, after a few attempts, he effortlessly opened the garden's formation as if he were the master of the formation.
Upon entering the formation, a refreshing fragrance of plants and herbs greeted him.
Inside, there was a vast expanse of lush Spiritual Herbs, all of which were of second-tier quality or higher.
What caught Wang Hong's attention the most was a small area in the center of the spirit fields, where only third-tier Spiritual Herbs grew.
This includes the Nascent Pill's Spiritual Herb, and there are quite a few of them.
In fact, there are many types of third-tier Spiritual Herbs. Because he has been cultivating in one place after reaching the Golden Core stage, he hasn't had the opportunity to trade with other cultivators.
As a result, Wang Hong's Space has very few varieties of third-tier Spiritual Herbs collected. Sometimes, when he wants to develop a new Pill Recipe, he also faces the dilemma of not having Spiritual Herbs.
Wang Hong was delighted to see so many third-tier Spiritual Herbs this time. He approached the central spirit fields. Most of the third-tier Spiritual Herbs here were not mature, but this was not important to Wang Hong.
There are many particularities to consider when digging up and transplanting Spiritual Herbs in order to ensure successful transplantation.
Wang Hong didn't have time to consider these particularities. He used the most violent method, directly flipping the soil in the spirit fields with Spiritual Energy, exposing the roots of the Spiritual Herbs, and then absorbing them all into his hands with Spiritual Power, storing them in his Space.
After collecting the third-tier Spiritual Herbs, he turned around and collected all the remaining second-tier Spiritual Herbs in the spirit fields.
Although most of these Spiritual Herbs were not yet mature, he could take them back, as there were still many empty spirit fields in the Great Chu Immortal Nation.
After sweeping the Spiritual Herbs from inside, he left the Eastern Herb Garden and quietly made his way to the Western Herb Garden.
The Western Herb Garden also had formations and was guarded by the Demon Clan, and it seemed that there were even more members of the Demon Clan.
After approaching, Wang Hong still used the same method as before, silently killing the guarding cultivators and easily entering the herb garden.
The Western Herb Garden was even more spacious than the Eastern Herb Garden, especially in the center of the herb garden, where there was a three-foot-tall red sapling with several white fruits hanging from it.
Wang Hong's figure flickered, passing by the other third-tier Spiritual Herbs and appearing directly next to this sapling, gazing intently at it.
There was actually a Crimson Flame Fruit tree here, which was a type of fourth-tier fire attribute spirit fruit that greatly aided in the cultivation of fire attribute Cultivation Techniques.
However, this kind of Crimson Flame Fruit was extremely rare, had specific requirements for its growth environment, and was extremely difficult to successfully plant.
Moreover, from flowering to maturation, this spirit fruit required a total of two thousand years. The white spirit fruits on this tree were all in an immature state. Once the Crimson Flame Fruit matured, it would turn into a cluster of fiery red.
Wang Hong carefully dug up this fruit tree, but he didn't have time to plant it now, so he could only throw it into the land in his Space for the time being.
After collecting this fourth-tier Crimson Flame Fruit tree, he then looked at the garden full of Spiritual Herbs.
His Great Chu Immortal Nation had a weak foundation and not much savings, so these things could just supplement some of the foundation.
Although he had Space, the current area of Space was still not enough to support the needs of a nation.
Moreover, what he wanted to do was to put the Great Chu Immortal Nation into a virtuous cycle, so that it could operate normally even if he left.
He violently flipped out the roots of these Spiritual Herbs with Spiritual Power once again.
At the same time, a patrol team from the Winged Tiger Clan arrived at the Eastern Herb Garden and found it eerily quiet, not even a guarding Demonic Beast was found.
After discovering the anomaly, they immediately reported it. When the Demonic Beast responsible for the formation arrived and opened the herb garden's formation, not a single leaf of the Spiritual Herbs was left inside.
"Quick! Notify the Western Herb Garden and step up the defense!"
A more experienced member of the Demon Clan immediately thought of the Western Herb Garden and hurriedly led the team there.
When they, a group of Demonic Beasts, arrived at the Western Herb Garden, they found that it had also been subjected to the same attack, and the herb garden had already been emptied.
"Quick! Alert the entire clan to be on guard! We must capture this thief!"
This Demonic Beast knew that there was a spiritual tree inside that the ancestor had specifically instructed to protect. Now that it was lost, when the ancestor returned, no one would be able to bear the consequences.
Suddenly, the entire Winged Tiger Clan was thrown into chaos, searching everywhere for the infiltrating thief demon, as if every blade of grass and tree were an enemy.
