Bring your thoughts back to the present.

Chen Ming looked down and realized that he had already flown past the four bronze gates in the central area.

We arrived at the first floor of the central area.

In the words of the original work, the entire central area is actually divided into three layers, similar to the division of fruit peel, pulp, and pit.

The first layer is the smallest area.

It's only within a mile radius.

It is speculated that this was probably an area where the former owner of the forbidden area planted ornamental flowers, trees and shrubs.

And the second layer.

That is the true central area mentioned by the seven factions.

This place covers a vast area, and its exterior is a huge ring-shaped mountain range. The number of monsters in the mountain range is almost countless, and there are also various man-made buildings such as stone palaces and stone houses.

Most of the Foundation Establishment Elixirs produced in the Forbidden Land actually come from man-made structures within the ring-shaped mountain range.

As for the third layer?

Even though he believed his cultivation level was no less than that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, Chen Ming had never considered attempting to reach the third level.

After all, it's there.

But even cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage have perished!

"If I could obtain the treasures inside the stone hall, I might consider making a move after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, but for now, I'd better forget about it." Chen Ming glanced at the deepest area before plunging headfirst into the fog-shrouded ring-shaped mountain range.

call out.

It had just flown in.

A thick fog was already enveloping Chen Ming. Even with his current eyesight, he could only see through the fog for about three zhang (approximately 10 meters). Beyond that, he could not see through it.

Chen Ming frowned slightly.

It should be noted that his physical body far surpasses that of Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators. If it were any other Qi Refining disciple, they probably wouldn't even be able to see clearly within a foot of his surroundings.

It's no wonder that the ring-shaped mountain range needs the Moon Sun Pearl to dispel the fog.

If a few more demonic beasts were to emerge from within, even those disciples at the peak of Qi Refining would be severely injured if caught off guard!

"Take a look at the divine sense."

Chen Ming's eyes flickered, and a massive divine sense burst forth from his body.

Although the dense fog was extraordinary and had the effect of obscuring divine sense, the range that divine sense could cover still far exceeded the range of physical vision, covering an area of ​​nearly thirty feet.

"That's enough."

Chen Ming smiled with satisfaction.

He wasn't worried about being attacked by monsters, but rather about getting lost in the thick fog.

This provided an observation distance of thirty zhang.

Then none of these problems will be problems anymore!

"Walk!"

With a thought, Chen Ming tiptoed and his figure transformed into a streak of blue light, disappearing into the thick fog.

.....

In the vast and boundless mountains and forests.

A thick fog blanketed the area, and birds and beasts cried out in unison.

In such a pitch-black environment, even ordinary people or cultivators would feel fear if they were here.

"roar!"

Just now.

A beast's roar echoed through the mountains and forests.

"So noisy!"

next moment.

The towering flames illuminated half of the forest, followed by the pitiful howls of the demonic beasts.

In the firelight.

A figure stood silently in place, surrounded by a large number of massive demonic beasts lying paralyzed around him. These beasts exuded a rich aroma of meat, and their fur had been scorched beyond recognition.

"This is the third place."

Chen Ming blew out the flame on his fingertip and looked toward the cave not far away.

Take the first step.

Soon he entered the cave, which was filled with thick fog.

There were still some surviving cubs of demonic beasts inside. When they saw Chen Ming, they all bared their immature fangs and pounced on him with bared teeth and claws.

"go!"

Chen Ming glanced at these young demon beasts and then used a spell to annihilate them into ashes.

Having lost their parents, they will likely struggle to survive in the future.

Rather than that.

It would be better to send them into reincarnation sooner rather than later.

After dealing with the monster, Chen Ming looked towards a corner of the cave, where four pale purple flowers were growing. The petals of these flowers all curved in the same direction, making them look like a comical little monkey.

"The Purple Monkey Flower is one of the main ingredients in the Foundation Building Pill. Judging from its color, it should be over three hundred years old and already suitable for medicinal use."

With a smile on his face, Chen Ming took out several jade boxes from his storage bag, carefully picked four purple monkey flowers, and put them into the jade boxes.

Since entering the central area.

This was the third time he had harvested a spiritual herb. Unfortunately, the previous spiritual herbs were mostly ordinary ones that were two or three hundred years old. Only this cave, because it was home to a large number of first-level high-grade demonic beasts, actually contained four mature purple monkey flowers.

"These four plants are actually enough to exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill."

Chen Ming felt a slight surge of joy.

There are differences between different kinds of spiritual medicines, especially when it comes to the main ingredient of the Foundation Establishment Pill, which is undoubtedly much more valuable than ordinary spiritual medicines.

Therefore, Chen Ming dared to say that he could exchange these four Purple Monkey Flowers for a Foundation Establishment Pill.

With this harvest.

Chen Ming was even more excited about the exploration to come.

Following his current route.

There are about five more locations recording spiritual herbs on the way to the stone hall. If all of them are from this harvest, then he will probably have more than twenty spiritual herbs in his possession!

In addition, there were more than twenty spiritual herbs that already existed in the stone hall.

Even if he does nothing else, he can still harvest more than forty spiritual herbs!

"Looks like I was too narrow-minded. Forty spiritual herbs? This time I'll probably bring out over a hundred. Even if three-quarters are taken away, the rest will still allow me to quickly break through to the mid-to-late stage of Foundation Establishment!"

The more Chen Ming thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

After all, the Crimson Forbidden Land is vast, and many spiritual herbs have been buried there for many years, but in the past, the disciples of the seven sects did not have the strength to explore it.

In the original work.

Even though they were trapped inside the stone hall, the team led by Nangong Wan still managed to harvest more than a hundred trees, which was more than the combined harvest of Huangfeng Valley and Qingxu Sect!

It cannot be said that Nangong Wan did not deserve any credit for this.

He doesn't believe it!

"Moreover, Nangong Wan's power is scattered through reincarnation, so her strength cannot be sustained for long. This is why she couldn't even defeat a black dragon comparable to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. If it were me now, I wouldn't be able to kill her, but I could definitely save my life."

Upon realizing this, Chen Ming felt reassured.

.....

The time that follows.

Chen Ming increased his speed even further, and even flew at low altitude over the ring mountain range to overcome the obstacles between the mountains.

This also significantly increased his speed of harvesting medicinal herbs.

In just half a day, Chen Ming visited five locations that recorded spiritual herbs, and crushed all the demonic beasts inside with a single blow.

at the same time.

Chen Ming now possessed twenty-three spiritual herbs, eight of which were essential for refining Foundation Establishment Pills!

"Next, only the stone hall remains."

Chen Ming arrived at the edge of a small basin and looked at the blue stone hall surrounded by strangely shaped rocks. His eyes flickered slightly.

The stone hall in front of us must have been an important residence of the former owner of the forbidden area.

Therefore, that thing inside can serve as the key for Nangong Wan to unlock the core tower of the entire forbidden area!
