Chapter 153 - 153 The King of Medicine

153 The King of Medicine
After a hundred years of silence, the Cloudy Dream Mountain Forest was finally bustling with activity again.
Countless martial artists from outside the Cloud Empire had gathered to fight for the King of Medicine.
Jiang Ming strolled leisurely in the direction where the King of Medicine appeared. Along the way, he met many martial artists, who were rushing forward like a tide.
Before they even saw the King of Medicine they had started fighting. With the appearance of the King of Medicine, more and more fire cloud grass appeared in the mountain. People often found them, which led to fights breaking out between them.
After all, there was only one King of Medicine, however, the value of fire cloud grass was nothing to scoff at either.
Jiang Ming also picked up two stalks of fire cloud grass. “Fire cloud grass contains spiritual energy, after all. It’s just that I wasn’t an immortal cultivator back then, and I couldn’t sense it.”
Jiang Ming was not surprised at all. Back then, he had guessed that the medicinal effect of fire cloud grass was beyond ordinary medicinal herbs.
“Give that to us!” Not far away, a few figures rushed over wildly with savage smiles on their faces.
Jiang Ming threw a few stones at their heads, leaving a bloody mess where they had been standing. Then, he continued to walk forward casually.
About two hours later, there were more and more people in front of him. Jiang Ming finally came to a river valley formed by the impact of a waterfall.
According to the latest news, the King of Medicine had disappeared near this valley.
Countless martial artists had already gathered in the valley in search of the King of Medicine.
Jiang Ming stood above the river valley, overlooking the turbulent waterfall. Those who dared gather around this waterfall were all martial artists with extraordinary strength. Some of the weaker people stood far away, looking around as they tried to fish in troubled waters.
Jiang Ming also shook his head. Those people knew that even if they were lucky enough to catch the King of Medicine, they would probably die. However, they still wanted to take the risk.
Nearby, many people were having heated discussions about the King of Medicine.
Everyone’s eyes began to burn as they looked around, wishing they could find the King of Medicine.
“Eh? Saber King Wu!”
Suddenly, a surprised shout came from behind.
Jiang Ming looked back and saw Fang Zishuang and Uncle Tong. They had also arrived.
“You’re already here. Where’s your saber?” Fang Zishuang chuckled.
Jiang Ming smiled. “There’s no saber in my hand because my whole body is as powerful as a saber!”
“You can continue bragging.” Fang Zishuang rolled her eyes.
Uncle Tong’s eyes darkened. “Kid, the excitement here isn’t something you can get involved in. If you don’t want to die, you should leave.”
“That’s right. A Grandmaster has already appeared here. You must be careful!” Fang Zishuang also said softly. She secretly gestured to a few figures standing on high cliffs far away from the waterfall.
“So what? The King of Medicine is in my hands today. No one can take it away,” Jiang Ming said casually.
“You’re pretty bold!” A few martial artists were searching for the King of Medicine, and they happened to pass by. They sneered, “You’re being so disrespectful to a Grandmaster! I think you’re tired of living!”
Ruthlessness flashed in their eyes, but this was the key time to find the King of Medicine. They did not want to waste any time. Thus, they left a few harsh words.
“Don’t talk nonsense.” Fang Zishuang’s face was bitter. “Did you see the symbol on their clothes? They are from the Liu family, the most powerful Grandmaster family in the Cloud Empire!”
She secretly pointed at a group of people standing there and said in a low voice, “Look over there. That’s where the experts of the Liu family are. I heard that their family head, Liu Huaji, has been waiting here for a long time. He’s determined to get the King of Medicine. He is extremely fierce. And he became a Grandmaster by killing thousands! Decades ago, he even imitated the previous dynasty’s Marquis, Zhou Pingshi, and massacred half a city to become a Grandmaster! The Liu family is brutal and bloodthirsty. You are in great danger now that they have their eyes on you. Why don’t you run away in advance?”
Jiang Ming glanced at her and smiled. “Grandmasters aren’t omnipotent. Didn’t you say that Grandmasters also died in these situations? Maybe when they all die, it’ll be my turn to pick up the leftovers. Let me tell you, I used to live here. I’m a local here and I’m very powerful. Those foreigners are definitely not my match!”
“You’re really hopeless!” Fang Zishuang lost her temper. She wondered if this guy was hallucinating after eating mushrooms from the mountains.
Then, she also stared blankly at the surroundings of the waterfall. After a moment, she suddenly sighed and turned to look at the old man beside her. “Uncle Tong, do we have any hope of finding it?”
She knew that Uncle Tong was extraordinarily strong. However, in front of those terrifying Grandmasters, he probably would not even be able to take a single blow.
“Young lady, you must not take the risk. Today’s battle is not simple!” Uncle Tong looked at Fang Zishuang and warned her in a low and serious voice.
Fang Zishuang could only nod in confusion.
Jiang Ming stood still and did not speak, his eyes slightly closed. His heightened perception had been activated. He was using it to see if there was anything here that would stand out
Soon, a few places seemed to trigger his heightened perception. It made Jiang Ming feel slightly uncomfortable, but he did not feel any sense of danger.
“If it’s not the place where the Grandmasters are standing, could it be…” Jiang Ming noted down the places and continued to maintain his state of heightened perception.
“What?”
Suddenly, Jiang Ming opened his eyes and looked at the place where the waterfall fell, under the water.
Just now, there seemed to be something there!
“I’ve finally found it!” Jiang Ming smiled and strode towards the waterfall.
“Do you want to die?” Fang Zishuang was shocked and exclaimed.
That was the place where the fighting was the fiercest! There were already many casualties here!
Seeing that Jiang Ming was still walking ahead, Fang Zishuang was ready to rush forward to pull him back. However, she was stopped by Uncle Tong, who shook his head.
“The King of Medicine has already made many people go crazy today. Those who can’t resist their greed will pay the ultimate price. Young lady, don’t sacrifice yourself for this person,” Uncle Tong said calmly.
Fang Zishuang was stunned for a moment and sighed helplessly. She thought that Jiang Ming was not bad, but she did not expect that he would be blinded by the King of Medicine.
Jiang Ming’s pace was fast, and he soon walked to a rock in front of the waterfall.
There were also martial artists searching in the river below the waterfall, but no one found the King of Medicine.
Jiang Ming squinted and stared at a place under the waterfall. Suddenly, he made a leap of faith and plunged straight into the water.
The person next to him was shocked and shook his head. “Another one has gone crazy.”
* * *
Jiang Ming dove into the deep water.
According to his heightened perception, he was getting closer and closer to the place that had triggered the movement.
After Jiang Ming swam through a few caves, he suddenly emerged from an underground river and immediately saw a white little thing lying on a shallow beach.
“No wonder no one found it.” Jiang Ming was rendered speechless. If he did not have his heightened perception, he would not have found this place.
The little white thing’s body was exuding an extremely rich spiritual energy, almost comparable to the aura of a spirit stone.
“Is this the King of Medicine?” Jiang Ming was overjoyed.
However, the sound of him coming out of the water immediately startled the little white thing. It jumped up reflexively and plunged into the water.
Jiang Ming quickly dove into the water and gave chase with all his might.
He was getting closer and closer to the King of Medicine, but the King of Medicine was getting further and further away. Jiang Ming could not help but curse internally.
When he found the King of Medicine at the bottom of the river, he wanted to sneak away with it, but now he was afraid that he could not.
This King of Medicine was as extraordinary as they said. It contained rich spiritual energy and was as fast as lightning!
“However, don’t even think about escaping from my grasp!”
Jiang Ming’s blood Qi circulated, and he used the Meridian Breaker. His speed increased again, and he rushed to the King of Medicine in a flash and grabbed it.
The King of Medicine seemed to have sensed danger and swam forward with all its might, but it was still caught by Jiang Ming.
However, Jiang Ming could not stop himself. He jumped out of the water, causing a large splash.
Everyone looked at him.
Then, their eyes were fixed on the item in his hand.
It was like time had frozen.
The King of Medicine had been caught!
However, Jiang Ming did not seem to notice. He lowered his head and looked at the little white thing in his hand carefully for the first time.
“This the King of Medicine.” Jiang Ming’s expression was strange.
This King of Medicine was far from what he had imagined. It was only the size of a palm, white all over, and had four short limbs.
It looked like a white radish with its back facing upwards, but the leaves on the top were fiery red, like a gorgeous flame swaying above its head.
There were faint traces of facial features on the fleshy part of its body. However, it had not completely taken shape.
Suddenly, there was a strong wind whistling around him.
Blood splattered everywhere. In an instant, more than ten people exploded, dyeing the river red.
