Longevity: Start by practicing the ruthless way

However, as soon as they approached, the oppressive force here suddenly increased by more than ten times. Even though they had strong bodies, their bones were crackling and they were pressed to the point of being unable to move.

If an ordinary cultivator came to this place, he would definitely explode into pieces in an instant. The space here is severely distorted, and there is a strange and terrifying mysterious force flowing.

"So strong! Is this a test left by the ancient mighty ones for us, the people of later generations?" Gu Chi was sweating profusely as he and the big black dog moved forward under great pressure. Although their movements were slow and every step they took was extremely strenuous, they were still moving forward.

Finally, they entered the medicinal field, and clouds formed by spiritual energy surged over and submerged them.

The spiritual energy here is so rich that it is almost condensing into liquid.

The man and the dog took deep breaths to replenish their consumed energy and fill themselves up.

"Hahahaha, Lao Hei, this tremendous wealth has finally fallen upon us!" Gu Chi laughed loudly, his eyes narrowed into crescent shapes, but he soon frowned again, discovering that the Heaven-Swallowing Bag could not be used here, and even the storage bag was ineffective.

"What's going on?" Gu Chi asked the small black stone in his hand.

"There are restrictions in the Divine Garden, and you can't use magical powers, spells, spiritual weapons, or artifacts." Little Black Stone explained.

"But wasn't my Cuo Yu Qi able to be used normally just now?" Gu Chi was puzzled. She didn't notice anything wrong when she fought with the young monk before, and Cuo Yu Qi could be used normally.

Not only her, the black gold coffin of the big black dog seemed to be unaffected.

Little Black Stone said, "That's simply because the materials of your two war weapons are quite special. Even without displaying divine power, they are still extraordinary. Try it yourself and see if you can unleash a ray of divine power."

Upon hearing this, the big black dog immediately took out the black gold coffin and tried to make it vibrate and emit a wave of divine power, but failed to do so.

Gu Chiji made a mistake in cutting the jade knife, and swung it violently, trying to chop out a sharp edge, but what came out was only a sharp force similar to sword energy, which could not show its divine power.

"It's really restricted." Gu Chi was stunned. The spiritual weapons and magic tools could not be used here. How could he take away so many spiritual medicines?

"Lao Hei, give it to me! Eat as much as you can!" Gu Chi didn't want to return empty-handed, so he decided to eat all the elixirs here like he did last time when he ate the golden silk of autumn silkworms.

As she spoke, she pounced on a red orchid first, but with a loud "bang", a huge force knocked her away on the spot, creating a big hole three or four meters away.

"What happened?" Gu Chi sat up and rubbed his arms and thighs, his face full of surprise. If he hadn't had a strong body, he would have broken bones and tendons by now.

"Hey, hey, hey! What do you want to do?!" Xiao Heishi suddenly screamed.

Gu Chi lifted it high up, and then threw it forward with force, causing it to fall next to an ancient medicinal plant. As a result, a circle of ripples appeared, which shook it away.

"Ahhh!!! I'm going to break! Help! Kill the stone!" It howled miserably, but in fact it was completely unharmed.

"What the hell? Is it just for people to look at but not to pick?" Gu Chi muttered softly. She asked the big black dog to stand still and not move, while she walked forward carefully, slowly stretched out her right hand, and grabbed the red orchid.

The invisible force reappeared, almost violently, and violently pushed her hand away.

"I just don't believe it!" Gu Chi gritted his teeth and tried his best to reach down, determined to uproot this ancient medicine.

"boom!"

She succeeded, but the elixir shattered directly, and she herself was also affected and pushed backwards by a huge force. Her throat felt sweet and a mouthful of blood flowed out from the corner of her mouth.

Fortunately, although the elixir had been broken into pieces, it was still edible. She waved her hand and caught all the falling pieces, then opened her mouth and ate them.

"Eating a magical herb and spitting out a mouthful of blood is not a loss!"

Next, she ate five spiritual herbs in a row and vomited blood three times in total. After refining the spiritual herbs, she recovered quickly. It can be said that it was a sure win.

"Old Black, you can come over now. Our bodies can still hold on!" Gu Chi shouted to the big black dog behind him.

The big black dog did not delay and entered the medicine field under great pressure. It ate nine spiritual herbs but only vomited blood four times. Even Gu Chi gave it a thumbs up and praised it generously.

Gu Chi continued to move forward, looking for more precious elixirs. However, after she had taken a few steps, she smelled a bloody smell. She pulled aside the weeds that were more than half a person's height, and a corpse appeared before her.

"It's him!" Gu Chi was shocked. This person was the young monk who had fought with her not long ago. Now only half of his body was left, and his internal organs had been hollowed out and eaten!

"They were murdered in just such a short while?" Gu Chi frowned slightly and continued to walk forward. Four more corpses appeared in front of him. The blood had dried up, and it was obvious that they had been dead for some time.

When the fifth corpse appeared, her heart couldn't help but tighten. This was actually the strong man from the Tumen royal family. He had fought fiercely with her outside the Baiyao Garden and had his calf broken by her.

"This man is quite powerful. Who killed him?" Gu Chi frowned and walked step by step into the depths of the Divine Garden. If she guessed correctly, there must be an extremely terrifying monster ahead.

Half an hour later, she really saw human figures. In a medicinal field in front of her, there were eight middle-aged men picking herbs, coughing up blood from their mouths.

There were more than a dozen corpses lying on the ridges of the field. They had been dead for a long time because they could not bear the environment here.

"You... come here and pick herbs!"

The eight young men also noticed Gu Chi, and one of them yelled at her.

"Who are you?" Gu Chi asked.

These eight people looked to be in their forties or fifties and were quite powerful, but they all had slave marks branded on their foreheads. It was unknown whose slaves they were.

"Marquis Yongqing's Mansion! We are collecting herbs for the Marquis. Come here quickly if you don't want to die!" A dark-skinned man shouted at her in a dull voice.

Gu Chi did not respond, but stretched out his hand towards them and said, "Hand over all the spiritual herbs you have picked, and I can spare your lives."

"What are you talking about?!" The eight people were stunned when they heard this, and then they became furious, emitting a captivating aura.

At the same time, another cold voice came from a distance, saying, "How dare you come here to rob me."

The sound was not loud, but it contained a terrifying power that made people's hearts tremble.

Gu Chi followed the sound and looked into the depths of the medicine field, where holy light was diffused and colorful auspicious lights were flowing.
