Longevity: Start by practicing the ruthless way

Black Stone howled loudly, feeling unsafe in Gu Chi's hands. After all, he had just witnessed the entire process of Gu Chi frying the green vine, and a shadow had already formed in his heart.

"For ordinary animals and plants to awaken their spiritual intelligence, they need the right time, place, and people, let alone a piece of stone like you? How can a mere flower have such a miraculous effect?" Gu Chi asked with a look of doubt.

"Of course, that's the King of Medicines, the king of all medicines, very rare in the world. Every herb of this grade has astonishing medicinal effects. I think it will be of great benefit to cultivators like you. You should quickly find its whereabouts and don't let others take advantage of it."

Gu Chi chuckled and said, "You said you were originally just a stubborn stone in this garden. After you awakened your spiritual intelligence, you probably never left here, right? How did you know the classification of spiritual herbs in the outside world and know that it was a King of Medicine?"

As she spoke, she kept applying force with her hands to verify the hardness of the stone. Although the latter kept screaming and crying out in pain, there was no sign of it breaking. It was harder than diamond.

"It's unfair. I have indeed never left the Divine Garden, but you outsiders have come in quite a lot, right? I listened to your discussion and learned that the Spiritual Flower is a medicinal king. It's not surprising, right?" Black Stone howled.

Gu Chi thought for a moment and said, "Since you are a local, you should be very familiar with this place, right? Take me to find that spiritual flower and I will see what it is."

Just as she turned around, her spiritual sense detected someone watching her from a distance.

She weighed the black stone in her hand for a few times, and then threw it out with all her might.

"Ah! Ah!"

Two screams sounded at the same time.

One was emitted from a black stone, and the other was from a young monk, with a big bump on his forehead and blood gushing out.

"My fellow Taoist, did I provoke you? Why did you attack me for no reason?" The cultivator, who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, was wearing a yin-yang Taoist robe. He covered his forehead and shouted angrily.

"Who told you to spy on me secretly?" Gu Chi said righteously.

"I'm spying on you, damn it! I came in looking for an opportunity, but I heard someone talking here, so I stayed and watched for a while. Is that spying? What is there to spy on?!" The monk drew out his sword and rushed forward aggressively.

"Since it's a misunderstanding, just explain it clearly and don't get angry." Gu Chi hasn't figured out whether there are any rules or restrictions in this divine garden, so he doesn't dare to fight with others easily.

"Stop talking nonsense and take this!" The monk was angry and took out a Five Thunder Talisman from his sleeve. He was about to release lightning to kill Gu Chi, but he couldn't do anything.

"Damn it! How could this happen?!" The young monk cursed inwardly and raised his sword to kill, each move aimed directly at Gu Chi's head.

"My fellow Daoist, since it's just a misunderstanding, I'll just apologize to you and that's all. There's no need to take my life directly, right?" Gu Chi was defensive.

The young monk sneered and said, "You think it's over just by saying it? Hand over all the treasures on you, and I'll put this matter behind me!"

"chi"

A sword energy came at him, and Gu Chi dodged sideways, but a clump of his hair was still cut off, and a blood mark appeared on his snow-white neck, with a few drops of blood oozing out.

Gu Chi touched his neck and looked at the blood on his fingers. He immediately got angry and said, "I gave you a little color, and you opened a dyeing shop? Do you really think I'm a soft persimmon that can be easily manipulated?"

The battle broke out instantly, and Gu Chi, holding two swords, turned from defense to offense.

After dozens of rounds, the young monk screamed, and many cuts appeared on his body. The gurgling blood soaked his Yin-Yang Taoist robe red.

"What the hell! Such a delicate and tender woman is actually a cultivator?!" The young cultivator cursed in his heart.

This sacred garden is restricted by the power of rules, and it is impossible to perform magical powers. Even talismans are useless. This is extremely disadvantageous to him, but it has great advantages for physical cultivators with strong physical bodies.

He turned and ran. If he continued like this, he would definitely be hacked to death by the woman in white!

However, there had been a precedent of letting the tiger return to the mountains, and this time the big black dog had made preparations early. As soon as the young monk turned around, he directly summoned the black gold coffin and threw it violently in the direction where the young monk was escaping.

With a loud bang and a scream, the young monk was hit on the head and almost lost consciousness and fainted on the spot.

He was dizzy and staggered a few steps before falling to the ground. His head was almost cracked and blood was all over the floor.

"Well done, Lao Hei!" Gu Chi gave the big black dog a thumbs up and rushed over to finish him off. Then they followed the complete process of destroying the body that they had already mastered by heart. First they burned the body, then they ground the bones and scattered the ashes, cleaning up the traces of battle and blood at the scene.

During this process, the charcoal-black stone was also quietly rolling, trying to take the opportunity to escape, but was stepped on by Gu Chi, who then grabbed it in his hand and said with a smile: "I find that using you as a hidden weapon is quite good. From now on, you can follow us. We will definitely treat you well if there are benefits!"

This sacred garden is very large, and is full of brilliance and splendor, but most of it is ordinary plants and trees, and there are hardly any decent spiritual medicines.

It was not until they walked into the depths of the divine garden that a strong medicinal fragrance wafted into their noses. The spiritual energy was as rich as the sea, auspicious colors and divine clouds danced, and the vigorous life essence surged like waves.

This is the medicinal field opened up by the ancient great men. Many ancient medicines have died of old age and turned into mud. Then the seeds sprouted again and grew again, and the cycle continued over and over again. Now, I don’t know how many generations the magical medicines in these medicine fields have been here.

"Oh my goodness, this is like being transported to a mythical age!"

Gu Chi and the big black dog were both extremely shocked. The difference between this and the spiritual medicine garden they were in charge of in Heming Sect was like heaven and earth. There was no way to compare them at all.

"If the plants wither, die, and then sprout and grow again, generation after generation, will the efficacy of the medicine weaken?" asked the big black dog.

Gu Chi had the same concern, so he repeated what the big black dog said to the little black stone.

Little Black Stone said, "It will definitely weaken, but in this environment, I don't think it will weaken much."

After a pause, it continued, "Besides, if one strain isn't potent enough, we can use two. Quantity can make up for quality."

Hearing it say this, Gu Chi and the big black dog were no longer worried. Their eyes were full of heat as they ran forward quickly.
