C12 Entering the Forest to Search for Medicine

Everyone was caught off guard by Jiang Shan's victory. No one could have imagined that such a youth, who couldn't even be considered an outer disciple, would actually be able to defeat an expert on the Inner Sect's Cultivator Ranking under the sword.

"How is this possible?"

Zhao Yan stared at the sword in her hand in a daze. Her delicate body slightly moved up and down. It was obvious that even she could not believe her own eyes when faced with such an outcome.

At this time, the surrounding people were all completely dumbfounded. All of them began to spectate and discuss with each other.

"Just what kind of background does this young man have? How can he fight a battle beyond his cultivation realm? This is truly unbelievable."

"That's right, Senior Zhao is an expert on the Inner Disciple Ranking. This kid doesn't even have inner breath, yet he could actually defeat Senior Zhao. This is unbelievable."

"Maybe Sister Zhao showed mercy on purpose. Otherwise, how could this kid be so lucky?"

For a time, the entire audience was filled with discussion, and it was extremely lively.

On the stage, Jiang Shan stared at Zhao Yan, who was standing opposite of him. He cupped his hands together and said, "You have relented!"

Finishing his words, Jiang Shan turned and walked away, showing no signs of wanting to stay.

"Hold on!"

Just as Jiang Shan took a step forward, Zhao Yan's voice rang out from behind him.

Jiang Shan's heart skipped a beat, he turned his head and cupped his hands again: "I wonder what other orders you have?"

Zhao Yan's face sank. "Who are you really? Why do you know the Rainbow Sword Technique? "

"I am a disciple of Qinghai Peak. I was originally only searching for medicine outside."

"A disciple of Qinghai Peak? "Fine, I'll consider it as having fallen into your hands today, but don't be too complacent, I will have another match with you here in a month's time. At that time, I will definitely not show mercy!"

Zhao Yan was also a competitive woman. Being humiliated by Jiang Shan in front of so many people today, she would not let him off that easily.

"Miss Zhao, right? I think you misunderstood me. I didn't mean it that way. Just now, I was only sparring with you about the Rainbow sword technique. I hope Lady Zhao would not take offense to it. "

Jiang Shan was not a fool, he could tell the opponent's identity. To be able to become an inner sect cultivator, one must either have powerful strength or a certain level of power.

The woman in front of him clearly belonged to the latter.

Hearing that Jiang Shan had actually rejected her request, the nameless fire in Zhao Yan's heart flared up once again, and she angrily said: "Brat, don't you fail to appreciate my kindness! If I ask you to come and compete with me one month from now, you have to do it for me, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Hmph. Miss Zhao, can I see your words as a threat?"

Jiang Shan's face also darkened. Previously, his strength was weak, so he had to endure being bullied by others. However, now that he possessed a certain level of strength, he would not allow anyone to ride on his head!

At this moment, the heart of Jiang Shan, which he had sworn to become stronger, was slowly growing!

Zhao Yan's eyebrows twitched, and said with disdain: So what if you're threatening? A mere outer disciple like you, who has not even had a breath of air, is nothing more than a worm in my eyes. "

Right now, Jiang Shan was only in the body refining stage for martial artists. There was a qualitative difference between him and cultivators who were in the Qi Cultivating Stage.

The reason why Jiang Shan was able to defeat Zhao Yan today was because Ling Yun had a deep understanding of the Rainbow Sword Art, which was why he was able to unleash the Rainbow Sword Art's sword intent to its maximum.

Looking at Zhao Yan's gaze which was filled with disdain, flames of fury shot out from Jiang Shan's eyes. That gaze was like that of a demon from the depths of hell, causing Zhao Yan's heart to tremble uncontrollably.

"What a terrifying look!"

Zhao Yan was slightly alarmed and could not help but swallow her saliva.

"Alright, since that's the case, I will stand here in a month and await your challenge!"

After saying that, Jiang Shan coldly snorted, turned around and left.

Zhao Yan stood on the stage and watched as Jiang Shan's back gradually disappeared into the distance. A cold light flashed across her eyes.

This matter did not cause much of a reaction, and neither did Jiang Shan take it to heart.

"Hey, Brother Xiaoshan, why did you agree to her request?" Ling Yun's voice suddenly rang out in Jiang Shan's ears.

"Heh, what else can I do if I don't agree? "With the other party's attitude and temper, do you think we'll be able to make it out if we don't agree?"

"Then what will you do after a month?" "Are we really going to make an appointment?" Ling Yun was still a little worried about Jiang Shan, so she asked softly.

Jiang Shan frowned and thought for a moment before replying, "Yes, I will come as scheduled in a month's time. At that time, I will have a showdown with her."

"But in this month, unless you reach the Inner Breath stage, and train in the first layer of the Body Refinement Method, you will only be able to defeat it after reaching the Large Success stage. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to defeat it."

Right now, Jiang Shan's situation was clear to Ling Yun, so she was a little worried about his safety.

"I know, but since I've already promised him, I will definitely do it. Moreover, I believe that I will definitely have a big breakthrough within this month."

Alright, you should train properly during this one month. After which, you should try to find as many medicinal ingredients as possible and refine some medicinal pills to help you raise your strength.

"Alright, I understand. Let's go look for the medicinal ingredients now."

After making up his mind, Jiang Shan could not help but quicken his pace.

The reason he went down the mountain this time was to purchase herbs and then refine pills. Thus, the first path he chose after leaving Hundred Herb Peak was a small path that led to a lush forest.

Actually, Jiang Shan's idea was very simple. There definitely wouldn't be any good herbs on the streets, and even if there was, it would still cost a lot of crystals. However, he really didn't have much money on him, so he could only pick by himself.

"Lingyun, are you sure we'll find the best medicinal ingredients along this path?"

Jiang Shan looked at the desolate forest in front of him and frowned.

Ling Yun giggled and said, "Brother Xiaoshan, did you forget that the more sparsely populated a place is, the more precious the medicinal ingredients are, because ordinary people don't know how to set foot in there."

"That's right, but this is too desolate. Don't you think that this place is a little strange?"

Jiang Shan looked around and discovered that he was surrounded by dense forest. He could vaguely sense a dangerous aura.

"It's a bit quiet, but this place is quite remote and there aren't many people around, so it's normal to be quiet."

Hearing Ling Yun's words, Jiang Shan thought for a moment and felt that it was true. He nodded and continued to walk forward. The further they went, the more uneasy he felt. This place was simply too quiet.

Suddenly, Ling Yun's voice rang in Jiang Shan's ears.

"Wait, Brother Xiaoshan. There are spirit beasts here. I can already sense a trace of them. We need to be careful."

"What?" "Spirit beast?" Jiang Shan's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect that he would run into a Spiritual Beast the moment he entered this place.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be a Rank 2 Spirit Beast. Its strength should be equivalent to that of an ordinary Martial Disciple." Ling Yun quickly made her analysis and quickly came to a conclusion.

At this time, Jiang Shan finally understood Ling Yun's ability.
