A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 909 - 895: Carefree Immortal Palace

Carefree Immortal Palace.

These four bright red characters, engraved on the cliff, made it seem as though the entire cliff was flowing with fresh blood. Despite the passage of countless years, these four characters had not eroded or decayed but instead carried immense momentum.

Baiyu squinted his eyes.

Is this the name of this palace complex? Carefree Blessed Land, Carefree Immortal Palace, it is evident that this palace complex holds a special status within the Blessed Land.

The ghostly green Ghost Fire behind had already engulfed the entire village.

The village's situation was no longer visible at all.

Then the ghostly green Ghost Fire continued to expand, and within the fire, the terrifying woman's face also grew.

This face had undergone significant changes compared to before.

On that resentful woman's face, many other faces, including villagers and the village chief, sprouted from within. They appeared within the woman's face, expressions full of anguish, wailing in agony every second.

This female ghost.

By devouring other souls, she would continually grow stronger!

Baiyu could hardly imagine how strong this female ghost could become if she could reach the Reincarnation Ghost City.

But that eerie river restricted her path.

Baiyu was not worried that the female ghost would reach the Reincarnation Ghost City, but now if she could enter the Carefree Immortal Palace, that would be troublesome.

After hesitating for a moment.

Seeing many people below the mountain begin to rush toward the Carefree Immortal Palace, Baiyu and Wang Shenghua also entered.

The entire palace complex covered an extensive area.

It was so vast that when the martial artists rushed in, it was like a mud ox entering the sea, without a trace of sound, making it difficult to encounter anyone.

The palace complex here was surprisingly well preserved.

Essentially.

There were no traces of erosion by time.

This is evidently due to a Spirit Array within the Carefree Immortal Palace. And as most predicted, the ghostly green Ghost Fire stopped outside the Carefree Immortal Palace, preventing the female ghost from entering.

Once most people were sure of this, their suspended hearts finally relaxed.

Baiyu and Wang Shenghua entered a side hall here, which turned out to be an elixir plantation, already occupied by several martial artists fighting over the elixirs. But most were still restrained, and there were no signs of weapon clashes.

These elixirs grew in black Spiritual Soil, Spiritual Qi overflowing, with the scent of medicine filling the air. Just one whiff made one feel refreshed, and the circulation of blood in the body increased.

"If I cultivate using these elixirs, I could reach the Grandmaster realm in just half a year. These treasures, taking even one out, could sell for astronomical prices."

"There are many herbs here long extinct, priceless. If taken to the Outer World, perhaps they could be transplanted and cultivated on a large scale, enough to nurture a great force."

A group of martial artists continually harvested the elixirs from the ground.

However, as soon as they picked them, the elixirs withered rapidly once away from the land, losing a large amount of Spiritual Qi.

In theory.

These herbs infused with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi shouldn't wither so quickly; the abundant Spiritual Qi should allow them to last a long time.

But.

These elixirs, once leaving the land, rapidly withered into a handful of black ash.

These people were instantly despairing.

The most agonizing thing in the world is not failing to find what you seek but finding it, only to lose it again.

One moment they were reveling in the joy brought by heavenly treasures, and the next, they plunged into despair.

"Could it be that these elixirs and Spirit Grass have long withered due to the passage of time?"

Someone questioned.

But.

Quickly someone refuted him: "No, these are fake, all these elixirs and Spirit Grass are fake."

Soon everyone discovered more suspicious things.

The seemingly rich in Spiritual Qi Spiritual Soil was actually just ordinary black soil with a layer of Spiritual Qi on the surface.

This was entirely a deception.

Once a group discovered this, their faces turned gloomy, and the previous joy vanished as they grew wary.

No one would idle in making a fake Spirit Land here.

There must be something sinister when something unusual happens.

With such a situation, one must worry if someone deliberately set a trap targeting these martial artists.

The entire Spirit Land's elixirs were fake.

These martial artists could only turn to other areas to search, only to find that the spiritually rich places seen from below the mountain were all illusory facades, many just covered with a thin layer of Spiritual Qi, golden on the outside but rotten inside.

Soon.

A group of martial artists gathered in the central plaza of the Carefree Immortal Palace.

In the plaza's center stood an enormous parasol tree, full of fall's yellow leaves, covering the ground in gold.

"Ba Fist, what's going on with your side? We found a piece of Spiritual Soil with a lot of elixirs and Spirit Grass, thinking it was a great harvest, only to find they were all fake. The Spiritual Soil was just someone spreading a layer of Spiritual Qi on the surface."

Spoke the martial artist who had been by the Spiritual Soil.

His face bore a long scar that writhed like a centipede when he spoke.

He was clearly the leader of a small group, and Ba Fist he mentioned was evidently the leader of another martial artist group.

"We found a Bodhi Forest, full of Spiritual Qi, and breathing inside made you feel Spiritual Qi entering your lungs. But after cultivating for a while, all the trees withered, it was all an illusion, deliberately arranged."

Ba Fist's face looked grim, and the group of martial artists behind him was equally gloomy.

"It was the same for us. We found over a dozen small connected Spiritual Ponds, the deep water nearly turning into mist with Spiritual Qi. But after cultivating, the ponds gradually dried up."

Another small group's leader was equally vexed.

Clearly. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

This Carefree Immortal Palace is full of illusions, appearing as heavenly treasures on the surface but actually useless.

After exchanging information, leaders of several small groups discovered another odd thing.

Some of their members were missing!

The chaos and the scramble for treasures left everyone inattentive. But now, each small group found one or two members missing.

"I suspect someone is targeting us, a hidden hand quietly picking us off one by one, reducing our strength!"

Ba Fist spoke coldly.

The other small group leaders also nodded in agreement. It was a highly plausible scenario.

"I suggest everyone split up to search but do not end up alone. Even if someone is acting in the dark, surely, they will leave some clues."

The scar-faced man said to the others.

The group quickly reached a consensus, but just as they were about to act, two wounded individuals suddenly burst onto the scene.
