The Supreme God of Martial Arts
Chapter 459 The Medicine Valley

Austin went straight to the Medicine Valley accompanied by Iris and Anna.

The valley was huge. Austin attempted to explore it with his spiritual sense, but he had underestimated the size of the valley for he couldn't even detect the end of it.

All he could surmise was that the valley was over 6, 000 meters deep. "Wow! Look! Six black flowers! Right there! You know, they are grade- four medicinal herbs!"

Anna cried out in surprise a moment later. She was pointing at a rubble heap where six bright flowers presented themselves in all their glory. Her interest piqued, Anna ran directly towards the heap.

"Watch out! Anna!

There may be diabolic beasts around!"

Iris shouted, warning Anna about her haste.

Anna had just stopped in her path when a few dark brown shadows jumped out of the heap and flew straight at Anna. Winds whistled behind them as they rushed in fury.

Anna hadn't had time to make sense of the beasts. She hurriedly pulled out her sword, but the dark shadows were all over her.

Anna was paralyzed with fear and couldn't react to the danger. She closed her eyes instinctively, waiting for the upcoming attack. Out of the blue, a dozen rays of sword radiance passed close to her and protected her from the dangers.

Hiss... Hiss...

"They're level-four demonic beasts, the dead wood snakes!"

Anna stared in horror at the beasts in front of her. There were more than a dozen snakes, each of which was very much like a withered branch except they were much more menacing.

The shadows turned out to be three dead wood snakes. They were lurking on the rubble heap where the black flowers were growing When Anna approached the heap, they launched an attack.

Dead wood snakes were level-four demonic beasts. As their name suggested, they looked like dead wood and often disguised themselves as withered branches. Once the enemy came close, they would launch a sudden and violent attack, giving the target little to no time to respond or defend themselves.

As a matter of fact, when Anna saw those black flowers, Austin had discovered that there were three dead wood snakes near them with the help of his spiritual sense. However, before he could warn her, she had already rushed over. So he had pulled out his sacred sword, ready to kill the dead wood snakes when they would launch their attack.

"Thank you, Austin. If it wasn't you, Anna wouldn't have been able to survive the attack.”

Iris felt rightfully indebted to him. It was a matter of fate that they had decided to follow Austin.

A variety of medicinal herbs at the fourth or fifth grade constantly presented themselves to the three throughout the way. Sometimes if they were lucky enough, they could find valuable medicinal herbs every dozen steps. The three were very excited.

In a span of 1, 000 meters, they came across almost 100 medicinal herbs, all of which were the fourth or fifth grade.

In some auctions of the Violet Orchid Empire, a grade-four medicinal herb could be auctioned off for hundreds of thousands of vital energy crystals. The price of some rare ones could even reach millions of vital energy crystals.

In the Medicine Valley, there were medicinal herbs at the fourth or fifth grade everywhere. The cumulative value of all these herbs could make them rich beyond their dreams.

As Iris and Anna picked the medicinal herbs at the fourth or fifth grade and put them into their Space Rings, they were screaming and dancing with joy.

No wonder there were countless opportunities for martial artists in the Mysterious Nether World. These medicinal herbs at the fourth or fifth grade alone would have been terrific harvests. After they left the Mysterious Nether World, they could sell off these medicinal herbs for extortionate prices or use them for cultivation

However, these medicinal herbs were guarded by many diabolic beasts, most of which had reached the fourth or fifth level. They were dangerous and any martial artist would have to be an expert to kill them.

However, Austin could defeat them easily with just a move.

According to the note left by an ancestor of Pure Dream Convent, the Medicine Valley was much safer than the Bee Valley and the Fire Valley. It was true. These diabolic beasts at the fourth or fifth level were not threatening at all. Strong warriors who had reached the premium stage of Earth Realm could dare to fight their way in and survive.

For those young martial artists belonging to the Mysterious Realm, defeating those beasts was a piece of cake.

However, among the 100 young warriors from the Violet Orchid Empire who had entered the Mysterious Nether World, only a handful had reached the Mysterious Realm.

In the Medicine Valley, the division of labor among the three was clear- cut. Austin dealt with the beasts that guarded the medicinal herbs, while Iris and Anna collected medicinal herbs. They would then divide the medicinal herbs equally.

Originally, Iris proposed that Austin get 70 percent of medicinal herbs, and Anna and she got the other 30 percent. She knew very well that if not for Austin, it would have been difficult for them to march ahead or to even collect so many herbs.

Now, all they needed to do was follow Austin and collect the medicinal herbs without having to deal with any of the diabolic beasts.

However, Austin refused Iris's proposal and insisted on dividing the medicinal herbs into three equal parts, one for each person.

Iris and Anna were overwhelmed by his gentlemanly conduct.

In fact, Austin knew that he was gaining the most profit. As Violet and the gnome opened the way ahead, they would collect all the valuable and rare medicinal herbs along the way.

As for some of the powerful crystals that Austin and Violet obtained from the Cloud Cave previously, Austin used part of them to cultivate his spiritual sense, and the rest were all used by Violet for her cultivation

According to Violet, these powerful crystals played an invaluable role in reaching higher levels.

Therefore, Austin gave as many crystals as possible to Violet, and only kept a small portion for himself.

After all the crystals were used, Violet's strength had been improving exponentially in recent times.

Now she had become a sixth-level demonic beast.

A sixth-level demonic beast was as powerful as a warrior at the preliminary stage of Mysterious Realm.

Hence, given Violet's strength, she could easily defeat the beasts at the fourth or fifth level she encountered in the Medicine Valley. Coupled with the gnome's innate strong sense for medicinal herbs and rare and invaluable things, these two were the best partners for weeding out treasure and collecting them.

Moreover, as per what Violet had told Austin, the gnome was finicky and picky about the medicinal herbs. It had a perceptive eye and gave no heed to medicinal herbs at the fourth or fifth grade.

Only medicinal herbs at or above grade six would arouse its interest. Austin, Iris and Anna followed Violet and the gnome while they led the way. The medicinal herbs they collected were at the fourth or fifth grade, which were entirely ignored by the gnome.

Just then, Austin noticed with his spiritual sense that many figures appeared to huddle at the entrance of the Medicine Valley. Dozens of people were rushing in.

Evidently, the young warriors were also attracted by the fragrance of the medicinal herbs that was wafting out from the Medicine Valley. Fortunately, Iris and Anna had a note about the Mysterious Nether World left by the ancestor of Pure Dream Convent, in which the exact location of the Medicine Valley was marked. As a result, the three of them arrived at the Medicine Valley ahead of others. The warriors who were rushing in now would end up achieving nothing.

Luckily, those warriors who had arrived the earliest at the Medicine Valley, including the principal disciples of the Bloody Hero Gang, were not strong enough to defeat the beasts that guarded the medicinal herbs fast enough.

"Make haste! Many warriors outside have found the valley. They are coming in," Austin reminded Iris and Anna, and also told Violet who walked ahead about this. They had to rush for their journey to be fruitful.

"Well then, I've collected more than 30 sixth-grade medicinal herbs. If I'm not wrong, the most precious medicinal herbs should be in the depths of the valley.

There are so many medicinal herbs in this valley. I don't think we can collect them all. We should just give up the medicinal herbs that we find here because they are low in value and not worth our time. We must lose no time to go deep into the valley and find the most precious ones here,” Violet proposed.

Austin contemplated for a while and then bobbed his head in agreement. Violet was right. There were medicinal herbs everywhere in Medicine Valley, and it was unrealistic to collect them all in a short time. They should just give up and go deep into the valley to look for some rare and invaluable treasures.

Otherwise, if the dozens of warriors that were bustling outside caught up with them, the competition would be fierce and the resources were already scarce.

Austin told Iris his plan. Iris was obviously reluctant to leave her powerful companion Austin, but she also knew that the medicinal herbs at the fourth or fifth grade didn't attract Austin.

There would obviously be more valuable medicinal herbs in the depths of the valley, but accordingly, they would encounter more powerful beasts. If they still followed Austin, they would surely be a burden for him.

"Austin, go ahead then. Anna and I have already got many medicinal herbs at the fourth or fifth grade, and it has already exceeded our expectations. Therefore, we won't go deep into the valley but go towards the outer circle of the Mysterious Nether World to try our luck. My ancestor's note has marked the outer circle in detail, so I believe that it will help us to gain something as long as we don't go to the dangerous places,” Iris said sensibly.

Austin was glad that Iris didn't continue to follow him into the Medicine Valley. Otherwise, he would have to take care of them distractedly. He then grew fond of this girl showing good sense.

"Well, then I'll go ahead. Be careful.”

Austin was a direct, no-nonsense man. After saying goodbye, he turned and went straight to the depths of the Medicine Valley.

When Austin was more than ten meters away, he turned around and waved his hand backward, and then dozens of medicinal herbs flew back at lightning speed and landed in front of Iris.

Iris looked towards all the medicinal herbs at the fourth or fifth grade that they had just collected.

"Take these medicinal herbs.

My harvest will be much greater than yours," Austin said before he rushed to catch up with Violet and the gnome.

Iris and Anna were taken aback. They watched Austin recede into the depths of the Medicine Valley. Even after he was long gone, they were still standing, touched by his generous gifts.

Soon enough, Austin met with Violet and the gnome.

The three of them then rushed towards the depths of the Medicine Valley at lightning speed.

The gnome became more and more boisterous as they marched forward. It kept shouting excitedly, frequently telling Austin that it was attracted by something very precious ahead

The gnome's constant shouts encouraged Austin and Violet. Their eyes were lit up with the fruit that the gnome was animating about.
