Chapter 1016: Chapter 1116: Star Grass_1

Accompanying Julie Martin and the others onwards, Peter Brown listened to the three people talking about the local matters and found a growing understanding of the many things in the Cultivation World. It wasn’t boring at all.

"We found this Star Grass first!"

Suddenly, the voice of a young woman emerged from the fog ahead.

"There’s Star Grass!"

Ted Campbell said in surprise.

Peter saw that all three of them were quite excited.

"What is Star Grass?" Peter was completely at a loss about this Star Grass.

"You don’t know?" said Jasmine Smith, "In the vast expanse of the star domain, there are too many things unknown to the Human Species. This Star Grass is one of those incomprehensible things, different from Lingcao but a special type of grass that exists between Lingcao and immortal grass."

Peter laughed when he heard Jasmine Smith’s explanation. He had never imagined such a grass existed.

"It must be that this star domain has given rise to a batch of Star Grass, and two groups are fighting over it."

"What’s the use of Star Grass?"

His curiosity about Star Grass deepened further.

Julie Martin continued the introduction, "Star Grass is a type of Quasi-Immortal Grass that can boost a cultivator’s cultivation. When used with Lingcao in refining medicine, it significantly increases the success rate for pill formation and even improves the quality of the pills. Even Mahayana stage cultivators are envious."

As they were conversing, several cultivators suddenly popped into view up ahead, each one a master above the Body Integrating Phase.

"This area is the Nine Dragons Gang’s territory; please detour." The group looked towards Peter and his companions.

Upon hearing it was the Nine Dragons Gang, the expressions of Ted Campbell and the others changed immediately, and they said to Peter, "We should take a detour."

It was apparent they all held a sense of reverence towards the Nine Dragons Gang.

Just as Ted Campbell and the others were about to leave, another voice came from within, "Kill anyone who has heard about the Star Grass."

It was an impassive voice, as though the speaker didn’t even consider Peter and his party worth noticing.

"What?" The colors drained from Julie Martin and the two others’ faces as they quickly summoned all manner of defensive measures.

After a series of light flashes, the three had magic treasures on them and weapons in their hands.

"Peter, we are about to battle the Nine Dragons Gang, prepare for combat," they said.

Upon hearing they wanted him to fortify himself, Peter covertly channeled his Immortal power to protect his inner self before he turned his gaze to the approaching Body Integrating Phase cultivators. Although his cultivation wasn’t exceptionally high, at a glance, the Nine Dragons Gang members all had a formation deployed, and Peter and his group had been trapped within the formation.

"We’re done for!"

Regret was already written all over Ted Campbell’s face. They shouldn’t have come this way today.

"Stay together; don’t scatter," Julie Martin told Peter.

"Is the Nine Dragons Gang that powerful?" Peter asked at that moment without forgetting to inquire.

"There are a lot of Mahayana stage masters in this gang. It’s a very powerful faction in the star domain, and now we’ve fallen into their hands!"

"If it weren’t for the Star Grass, they probably wouldn’t have stopped us."

"Star Grass has that much power?" Peter had no clue what Star Grass really was.

Jasmine Smith said, "Star Grass has the most important effect for those in the Mahayana stage, which is to provide a great amount of Immortal power for Mahayana masters. Just a small piece of a leaf, and a person in the Mahayana stage can be filled with the Immortal power he needs to ascend to the Immortal Realm!"

So this was the kind of grass!

Peter Brown now also harbored the desire to seize the Star Grass; if it really was as described, he could obtain a great amount of energy, which would be beneficial for him.

"The formation is the kind that consumes a person’s True Qi. Everyone, enjoy it slowly," they said.

The members of the Nine Dragons Gang didn’t take Peter Brown and his group seriously, even treating the situation as a form of amusement.

"We don’t know formations, what do we do?" Ted Campbell turned to look at Peter Brown.

Seeing the looks from the three of them, Peter Brown said, "I’ll try to break it, I do have some knowledge of formations."

"What if you break it?" Julie Martin asked.

Hearing her question, everyone remembered that outside was the territory controlled by the Nine Dragons Gang; even if they managed to break the formation, it was unlikely those people would let them go.

"We’re done for, this time we’re definitely dead!" Jasmine Smith shook her head and simply sat down, having lost confidence in her future.

After Peter Brown investigated the formation with the energy of Dao affinity, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he said, "So this is the formation, it’s not too difficult to break."

He flung out a few Jade Tablets and used his own formation knowledge to counteract the enemy formation.

As those Jade Tablets were consecrated, the people who were unable to see the outside now could see what was happening. Besides a few masters standing around, there were even more people above the Nascent Soul level.

Seeing that the Nine Dragons Gang had so many masters present, Peter Brown was also somewhat surprised.

"Run!" This time, Ted Campbell yelled loudly, then spat a mouthful of blood onto a formation disk.

The other two also spat their blood onto it.

After giving Peter Brown a glance, Julie Martin said, "Peter, this formation disk has been infused with our hearts; thus, it can only carry the three of us, we’re sorry for you."

As she finished speaking, lights flashed dazzlingly, and after a burst of glittering, the three people disappeared along with the formation disk.

"Sky-Transmitting Array Plate!"

The head Mahayana master looked on in astonishment at the spot where they vanished.

Sky-Transmitting Array Plate!

Having heard this, Peter Brown also began to understand; this was a type of formation disk from ancient times that required fresh blood to activate and was limited to those who had bestowed their heart’s essence.

Now, Peter Brown wasn’t interested in the actions of those who had fled quickly. For him, the only thing to do was to find a way to defeat these people.

If they wanted his life, they couldn’t blame him for resorting to his own methods.

At that moment, the Mahayana stage individual glanced at Peter Brown, turned around to walk inside, and said, "Kill him!"

Following his order, the people quickly surrounded Peter Brown.

The looks in everyone’s eyes when they gazed at Peter Brown conveyed one message: in their eyes, Peter Brown was already a dead man.

At this point, Peter Brown felt a bit of distress. Facing them head-on, he truly had no hope, and even fighting desperately would not make him a match for so many. What Peter could do was to use Immortal power to contend with them, his only chance at survival.

Checking the Immortal power situation in his Elixir Sea, Peter Brown wasn’t that worried this time; after all, there was a large amount of power, sufficient for a battle.

By then, a Body Integrating Phase master from the Nine Dragons Gang had already charged at him, intent on killing Peter Brown in one fell swoop.
