In this frenzied state, with everyone fighting for themselves, Teng Yang, the strongest among them, quickly annihilated the remaining three.

Even after defeating all his opponents, Teng Yang's condition showed no improvement.

"They're all mine! They're all mine!"

With bloodshot eyes, Teng Yang stared at the vast expanse of lush, top-quality herbs before him, laughing greedily.

Just as he was about to put all the herbs into his pocket, he suddenly discovered that the four people who had been killed were now standing up unharmed, smiling at him eerily.

"Die, all of you!"

Enraged, Teng Yang immediately channeled his inner energy and unleashed several palm strikes at the four men.

The four resurrected individuals did not retaliate. Even when faced with Teng Yang's palm strikes, they showed no intention of dodging. They simply stared intently at Teng Yang with eerie smiles on their faces.

Unsurprisingly, the four who did not fight back were once again killed by Teng Yang.

But soon, the four men, who had been beaten to pieces, revived and stood up unharmed, staring at Teng Yang with the same strange smile as before.

And so, Teng Yang relentlessly bombarded the four men again and again until he was completely exhausted, utterly drained of his inner strength, and passed out.

Not long after Teng Yang fell to the ground, the surrounding scenery began to gradually become illusory and began to ripple continuously.

A few breaths later, all the caves and medicinal fields disappeared, replaced by large tracts of trees that had been bombarded and broken, and a messy ground.

This is the original appearance of this place, while the medicinal fields cultivated by Jiang Yuchuan are several miles away from here.

The next morning, the area outside the Prime Minister's residence was filled with early-rising merchants.

The vendors pointed and whispered among themselves as they looked at the five corpses neatly arranged at the entrance of the Prime Minister's residence.

Soon, the people inside the Prime Minister's residence were alerted and came out.

The gatekeeper immediately recognized the five corpses that had been placed in front of his house. He was horrified and, without bothering to drive away the onlookers, hurriedly ran inside.

When Qu Yangming and Ding Wei came out with their guards and saw the corpses of Teng Yang and the other four, they felt as if they had been struck by lightning and the sky had collapsed.

These are five grandmasters!

Who on earth has such great ability to kill all five Grandmaster-level experts!

The next moment, Qu Yangming realized what the five people had done before the incident.

That medicinal herb field in the Ten Thousand Mountains!

How can this be? !

How could the owner of that medicinal field be so powerful that he could kill all five grandmasters!

Furthermore, the fact that the body was delivered to his mansion gate suggests that the other party already knew he was involved in the plot to seize the medicinal herb field!

Upon thinking this, Qu Yangming suddenly felt dizzy and fainted.

This incident is happening in Yonghe City, and even if the Prime Minister's residence wanted to hide it, it would be impossible to conceal it.

In less than a day, news of the discovery of five corpses at the Prime Minister's residence reached the palace and the homes of every official residing in Yonghe City.

The identities of those five people were naturally revealed shortly afterward.

This revelation shocked everyone, including the Emperor of Dayong.

The fall of five grandmasters is no small matter, especially since one of them was a mid-stage grandmaster!

Emperor Dayong made a special trip to meet with the reclusive patriarch who lived deep within the palace, fearing that the deaths of these five patriarchs were the work of an enemy state.

Qu Yangming's arch-enemies, after their initial shock, were overjoyed.

Clearly, Qu Yangming has messed with someone he shouldn't have.

At this moment, Qu Yangming is preoccupied with his own troubles and is in a state of utter distress, which is the perfect opportunity for them to take him down!

The uproar caused by the corpses of the five grandmasters in the Great Yong court had no effect on Jiang Yuchuan, who was far away in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

For Jiang Yuchuan, all of this was just a brief interlude.

From then on, Jiang Yuchuan was never disturbed by anyone again.

Time flies.

Several years have passed in the blink of an eye.

At this time, Jiang Yuchuan had harvested all the medicinal herbs he had cultivated in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

He refined most of these medicinal herbs into elixirs.

If you do the math, Jiang Yuchuan has been living in seclusion in the Ten Thousand Mountains for ten years.

In the past ten years, in addition to greatly improving his alchemy skills, his cultivation level has also successfully broken through to the late stage of the Golden Core realm with the help of numerous elixirs.

Not only him, but Xiaoqing and Xiaogu also reached the fourth and third levels respectively.

“I’ve been cultivating for so long that I don’t know the moon. It’s time to go out for a walk.”

With a breakthrough in cultivation, all the valuable herbs have been harvested, so there's no point in staying here any longer.

Furthermore, he has yet to find the last piece of metal-related knowledge, so he cannot completely relax and live a hermit-like life.

Before leaving, Jiang Yuchuan did not erase all traces of his residence. He deliberately preserved the cave where he had lived for ten years and hid a complete copy of the "Eternal Spring Technique" manual and two low-grade Clear Meridian Pills in it.

Of course, the benefits Jiang Yuchuan gained from staying here were not so easy to obtain, because he also set up a small illusion array at the entrance of the cave as a test.

If you can get through, you can get what's inside; if you can't, you'll be blocked outside.

This illusion array is not as lethal as the one he set up for Teng Yang and his group of five; it tests their perseverance and mental fortitude.

After leaving behind this small opportunity, Jiang Yuchuan took Xiaoqing and Xiaogu and left the Ten Thousand Mountains, flying towards the Great Qian.

As luck would have it, a few days after Jiang Yuchuan left, a simply dressed, resolute-looking young man, having gotten lost, stumbled upon his cave dwelling.

In the past, with the boy's meager skills, he would never have been able to get here.

The reason he was able to appear unharmed deep in this restricted area was not only due to his passion and youthful fearlessness, but also, and most importantly, because Xiao Qing had taken care of all the ferocious beasts in the restricted area over the past ten years.

At this moment, the wild beasts were all like frightened birds, trembling and shrinking at the slightest sound, all hiding in their caves to rest, and no one dared to come out and wander around.

The remaining relatively weaker wild beasts, though still a threat to the boy, were encountered by him without any luck or anything else.

The boy cautiously entered the cave, but as soon as he took a step, he froze on the spot.

A moment later, the boy's expression began to change constantly, revealing almost every emotion he had: joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

It took a full hour for the sweating boy to finally break free from the illusion.

The boy gasped for breath, staring at the cave that was slowly emerging before him. His face filled with shock, he knelt down and kowtowed three times.

"I was unaware that this was the secluded dwelling of a master. I have stumbled upon it unintentionally. I hope the master will forgive me!"

After kowtowing, the boy slowly began to feel his way into the cave.

Having passed the test of the illusion, he now knew that there was an opportunity left behind by a master in the cave.

Soon, the boy spotted a wooden box on a stone table not far away.

Upon opening the wooden box, one finds a martial arts manual with the three large characters "Changchun Gong" written on it, along with a plain-colored porcelain bottle containing pills.

Overjoyed, the young man knelt down and kowtowed three times loudly before taking out the manual and pills.

He accidentally stumbled upon a hermitage where immortals cultivated, and by chance gained a destiny to become a hidden dragon.

The era of youth is slowly unfolding.
