Chapter 120: She will feel heartache.

"How strange, it was just a grassy slope when I was here last time, how did so many medicinal herbs grow out? It’s only been a little over a month." Che Xiang continued, puzzled.

It must be because of the Dragon Blood Stone. Mu Hanyan immediately thought of the answer.

Legend has it that the Dragon Blood Stone is also spiritual and can absorb the Heaven and Earth Power to grow on its own. When it reaches a certain growth stage, like a flower blooming, it releases a portion of the Heaven and Earth Power. The medicinal herbs in front of her must have been influenced by it to mature and bloom within just over a month.

The unusual phenomenon of the Heaven and Earth Treasure’s emergence, as mentioned by Zong Dingfang and He Songhua, also had an answer, probably the phenomenon of the Dragon Blood Stone releasing the Heaven and Earth Power.

Without hesitation, Mu Hanyan quickly raced toward the slope.

When she got closer, Mu Hanyan noticed that not only were there many birds and beasts among the flowers and herbs—like grass-eating animals such as wild rabbits and wild sheep, and seed-eating birds like skylarks—she even saw a pink, tender piglet snuffling and rooting through the stems and roots.

This was clearly not the Mutant Wind Pig from before; the others were not Exotic Beasts either. However, devouring these medicinal herbs and flowers, they might one day mutate into Exotic Beasts.

Seeing Mu Hanyan and others approach, these little creatures did not hide but continued to eat joyously.

"Xuan Ye Grass, Purple Flower Vine, Ice Heart Grass... my goodness, aren’t these herbs said to take at least several decades to mature? And they’ve bloomed in just a little over a month." Mu Nan and the others had also caught up by then.

Seeing those herbs, Mu Nan’s eyes widened. These herbs were rare and precious in themselves, and what was more incredible, the growth period that was supposed to take decades had been reduced to just over a month; it was a wonder his jaw hadn’t dropped.

They did not doubt Che Xiang’s words—if he had seen so many strange flowers and herbs the last time he was here, they would have been picked clean by now, so how could they still be here?

"Quick, quick, quick, drive those livestock away! It’s a waste to let them eat such fine herbs," Mu Nan said, drawing his longsword.

"Forget it, don’t bother with them, there must be other treasures under this slope. Don’t waste your energy," Mu Hanyan stopped them.

Although these rabbits, sheep, pigs, and such seemed ordinary on the surface and probably hadn’t become Exotic Beasts, they had ingested quite a lot of herbs. Heaven knows if any had already developed superpowers. Mu Hanyan couldn’t be entirely sure.

Since they bore no hostility, there was no need to make unnecessary complications.

Reminded by Mu Hanyan, Mu Nan and the others also realized, and although they still felt it was a pity, they dismissed the idea.

Seeing Mu Nan and the others draw their longswords, the birds and beasts had shown a wary expression. When they sheathed their swords, they relaxed and continued to eat heartily; it was quite a harmonious scene of each fulfilling their own needs.

"Where is the Dragon Blood Stone?" The slope stretched over several acres, and Mu Hanyan didn’t want to dig up every inch, she thought to herself.

"Find it yourself, don’t always expect to get something for nothing." A sentence flashed quickly on the Star Plate, making Mu Hanyan’s teeth itch.

Unfortunately, the Star Plate returned to normal after flashing that sentence and showed no further response. Mu Hanyan wanted to bite it but that would only hurt her own teeth. Smash it? Whether it would feel pain was unknown, but Mu Hanyan would definitely feel the pain.

"The Dragon Blood Stone must be beneath this slope; everyone start digging." Having no alternative, Mu Hanyan had to act as a flower farmer for once. What else could she do? Since the Star Illusion Thousand Machine refused to tell her directly where it was, digging was the only option.
