Chapter 63: Return to Medicine Garden (Seeking Recommendations)

  The thunder rumbled, the dark clouds churned, and the combined force of the Heavenly Demon Army's attack had yet to come down. The disciples of the Tianxuan Sect stared blankly at the sky, unable to react for a moment as to what was happening.

  "It must be our seniors from the sect coming to rescue us, and they're defeating the Heavenly Demon!"

  Yu Qing and Hua Lu were among the first to react.

  "Great, we're saved!" The other inner disciples cheered and jumped for joy, while some people who had fallen to the ground with mouths full of blood were still laughing foolishly.

  Yu Qing carefully observed the lightning flashing in the cloud layer and secretly guessed: "It seems like there is only one person, I don't know which master ancestor it is?"

  In the transmission array, Su Che noticed that the transmission crystal stone was flashing with a faint light, no longer dull and lifeless as before.

  "Has the transmission function been restored?"

  Just as I was guessing, the transmission crystal suddenly lit up, and there was another person in the transmission array.

  This time, the one who appeared in front of Su Che was a middle-aged man dressed in simple clothes. He first smiled silently at Su Che, and then his gaze shifted to Yu Qing and Ling Long outside the transmission array.

  Linglong, who was looking up at the sky, suddenly felt a certain sensation, turned her head and looked over, and immediately exclaimed: "The old man is here!"

  Yu Qing, who was standing beside her, also turned around and called out in a low voice: "Uncle."

  The siblings rushed over immediately, and the middle-aged man chuckled: "This trip, wasn't the harvest quite big?"

  "You almost got me killed." Linglong glared at him fiercely, if it wasn't for Father's explicit instructions, her elder cousin wouldn't have brought her into the Demon-Sealing Domain.

  Su Che, who was standing by, only then realized that the middle-aged man was actually the Elder of the Medicine Garden of Xuanji Peak...

  At this time, Hua Lu and others also discovered the middle-aged man, and they all came forward to pay their respects as disciples, respectfully calling out "Shifu" or "Shibo".

  The middle-aged man nodded with a smile and said to everyone, "You all get out of the way, I'll come and readjust the transmission array. At this moment, it's still reverse transmission, only can enter, cannot exit."

  Reversal transmission, meaning: This transmission array was originally the exit of the Demon Sealing Domain, which could only go out and not enter; today, an anomaly occurred in the Demon Sealing Domain, and the transmission array was sealed by the external Tianmo with some kind of power. However, it was changed from the outside by the Tianxuan Sect's senior fellow apprentice to a reverse transmission array, becoming an entrance.

  The crowd dodged and dispersed quickly. Soon, the transmission array was adjusted by the middle-aged man and became an exit once again.

  "You can leave now, the injured ones first." The middle-aged man instructed: "After going out, don't rush to leave, wait for a while on the Demon Peak."

  "Yes, Master Uncle (Master Aunt)." The crowd responded in unison.

  The sky still had lightning and thunder, but the dark cloud layer formed by the Demon Army had dispersed. People with good eyesight could see that a group of 108 demon generals were fleeing towards the core area of the Sealing Demon Domain in a cluster of dark clouds, with another cluster of electric light following closely behind to chase them.

  The teleportation array can transport more than 20 people at a time, and it only takes over ten breaths. More than 100 disciples who have been through thick and thin all leave, leaving only the middle-aged man gazing at the sealed star shining brightly on the horizon, with a thoughtful expression.

  On the top of Demon Peak, the disciples who had escaped with their lives gathered in an open area, unable to leave for the time being. The injured ones sat cross-legged to heal their wounds, while those who were not injured chatted in small groups of three or five, each thanking their lucky stars that their seniors had arrived just in time to rescue them and save their own lives...

  Yu Qing and Ling Long are treating Mu Yun's wounds. She is the one who guards the formation, bears the greatest pressure, and is also the most seriously injured; Su Che is also extremely concerned, standing aside, has a very good impression of this righteous Mu Yun Shijie, and naturally does not want her to encounter any mishaps because of his own affairs.

  Under the double effect of therapeutic medicine and true energy infusion, Muyun slowly came to, looking like she was none the worse for wear.

  "It's all right." Su Che had just let out a breath of relief when Lao Hei's words made his heart tense up again.

  "Master, I sense that there is a powerful divine consciousness enveloping you all, as if it's examining each of you seasoned disciples one by one. It's likely some ancient being from the Tianxuan Sect in its Yuan Ying stage." Old Black reminded him, "It'll be your turn soon, and from now on, I dare not communicate with you anymore, lest we get discovered."

  "Got it." Su Che responded in his heart, secretly speculating: "With such a major event occurring in the Demon Sealing Realm, the upper echelons of the Tianxuan Sect cannot possibly remain indifferent. Conducting a thorough investigation on us fortunate escaped disciples is also normal... The only question is whether the secret of the Heavenly Prison in my mind can be kept safe..."

  Although worried in his heart, Su Che didn't dare to reveal even a hint of abnormality, silently adjusting his breathing and mood, trying his best to keep his expression and behavior consistent with the other disciples.

  About half a time later, Mu Yun temporarily suppressed his injuries and stood up, saying to Yu Qing and others with a lingering fear: "Unexpectedly, the Tianmo combined attack is so powerful, and the Tianji Panshi array is actually so fragile. This is still thanks to Su Shidi's top-grade spiritual symbol, otherwise, we would have..."

  Yu Qing nodded and said: "Yes, there are many enemies and few of us, it's hard to defend."

  Tianlu Peak's Hua Luosu looked at Su Che and said in a low voice, "Su Che is it? I'll remember this favor of yours."

  "Elder brother, you're too kind." Su Che returned a bow, showing extreme humility. However, in his heart, he thought: "In five years, I will definitely compete with you for the position of true heir, at that time, you will regard me as your arch-nemesis, what's this about human feelings or not, who will still remember it."

  After a while, the middle-aged man (Yao Yuan Lao Lao) appeared in front of everyone and said: "Alright, you can all leave now. Return to your respective peaks and report this matter to your masters. You will all receive some reward. Just now, Zi Xuan Tai Shang Lao Lao said that this time, your performance was quite good, and you should be commended."

  "Is it Zi Xuan, the Supreme Elder?"

  "It's actually Zi Xuan Sheng Zu!"

  Yu Qing and others then guessed that it was actually Zi Xuan Shizu who had arrived in person to save everyone.

  The entire Tianxuan Sect has five ancestors in the Yuan Ying period. Four of them are Taishang elders, and one is the Zhizun who controls the Tianxuan Sect.

  Su Che's heart was even more shocked: "That white-clothed man, is he the Zi Xiang Supreme Elder? He looks so young..."

  Next, the disciples of various major peaks bid farewell to each other and left one after another. On the top of Demon-Sweeping Peak, only Medicine Garden Elder, Yu Qing, Ling Long and Su Che were left.

  "Let's go too."

  The elder of the medicine garden took out a small flower pot with a flick of his hand, and it suddenly turned into a huge flower plate with a diameter of several meters.

  Yu Qing and Ling Long didn't think it was strange, and followed him by jumping into the flower plate. Su Che hurriedly caught up, still muttering in his heart: "Indeed worthy of being called the Eldest of the Medicine Garden, even flying treasures are made to resemble a flower plate."

  This Medicine Garden elder had at least the cultivation of the Golden Elixir's initial stage. The flying treasure he controlled flew at an unimaginable speed. When they came to Demon Quelling Peak, Yu Qing and Ling Long flew for a whole morning, but the Medicine Garden elder brought three big living people back to the Spirit Grass Medicine Garden on Mystic Mechanism Peak in less than a moment.

  Su Che thought this wasn't even his fastest speed, just a casual and leisurely state of rushing along.

  At the entrance of the Spiritual Herb Garden, the elder of the garden spoke calmly to Su Che, "From today on, you will be appointed as a Spiritual Herb Doctor and can move freely between the middle and lower layers of the garden. If needed, Ling Long will also take you to the upper layer to treat the spiritual herbs."

  "Thank you, Elder Xie." Su Che hastily paid his respects, and in his heart, he was naturally delighted. With the title of Spiritual Grass Physician as cover, it would be much more convenient for him to visit the Secret Medicine Garden from now on.

  The elder of the Medicine Garden smiled faintly and left with Yu Qing and Ling Long.

  Looking at their backs, Su Che was anxious in his heart, because the last glance and the last smile of the Medicine Garden Elder seemed to be extremely profound, really couldn't understand what kind of mystery was contained within...

  "Old Hei, can you speak now?"

  "It's been a long time," Old Hei replied: "This Medicine Garden elder is no ordinary person, with him around, I don't even dare to breathe loudly."

  "What's with all the squeaking? You're not a mouse."

  "Isn't this enough?" Old Black pulled his tail over and wrapped it around his waist again.

  Su Che laughed in his heart, no longer being troubled by the suspense brought out by Yao Yuan's elder. Whether it was good fortune or bad luck, if it was bad luck, he couldn't avoid it anyway. He had already done his best, and if anything else happened, that would be an unavoidable situation, there was no need to worry about it beforehand.

  Since they managed to come out alive from the Demon Sealing Domain, it was a great fortune. The over 1,000 low-grade Heavenly Devils captured in the Immortal Prison were enough for him and Old Black to digest for a very long time.

  By the way, there's another gain, that is Luo Lianqiao of Tianlu Peak. He claims to have a great talent for alchemy, next step, I'll find an opportunity to verify it...
