"Wait for me!"

Just as Ye Zichen flew away at an incredible speed and managed to escape the attack of the rune storm, a hoarse voice entered his ears.

The genius disciple, who was wearing a long black robe and a silver mask, closely followed Ye Chen like a bolt of lightning that cut through the sky.

As they flew through the air, an intoxicating fragrance wafted into their noses, attracting their attention.

Following this thick fragrance, they passed through layers of clouds and found a valley that was covered with moss and filled with wild flowers. At the end of the valley, there was a half meter tall strange flower with deep purple leaves and flowers that were as big as basins.

"It's a Purple Ghost Flower that's over 50,000 years old."

Looking at the strange purple flower in the valley, the silver-masked man immediately recognized it. This strange flower should be the Purple Ghost Flower recorded in the ancient records that was born from absorbing the spirit energy of heaven and earth. Not only could it nourish souls and strengthen soul beasts, it was also one of the main materials to concoct Great Dao Pills.

Judging by the lines of the Purple Ghost Flower in front of him, it was over 50,000 years old. If it were to spread outside, it would be enough to cause some old monsters to fight over it.

However, the two of them did not act rashly, because they felt the aura of an ancient restriction within the valley.

"Fellow 17, in order to express my sincerity, I'll break the formation in this valley and give you the Purple Ghost Flowers, what do you say?" The silver-masked genius shouted Ye Zichen's fake name in a hoarse voice.

"Alright!"

Ye Chenfeng also wanted to see the methods of a silver-masked genius, so he nodded in agreement.

"Wait for me here, I'll go pick the Purple Ghost Flowers!"

After saying that, the silver-faced genius' body appeared an ancient formation flag with the patterns of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise embroidered on all four sides. He flew straight into the valley that was enveloped by the ancient restrictions.

"The four beast flags of Dao treasure!"

As he looked at the ancient flags around the silver-masked genius' body, Ye Chen's eyes lit up. He felt that the silver-masked genius' strength was not simple.

"Rumble!"

Deafening sounds of restrictions rang out. The silver-masked genius entered the valley, causing huge waves. Boundless formation patterns appeared, carrying a terrifying killing intent as they bombarded his body, wanting to mince him up.

Faced with the attacks from all directions, the silver-masked genius moved both of his hands and controlled the four beast flags to form a powerful magic formation. The image of the four beasts appeared and enveloped his body.

When the attacking patterns hit the four beast diagrams, it was like a clay ox that had disappeared into the sea. Not even a single ripple was stirred up.

"What great methods. I didn't think that this person would have such a profound understanding of array formations. With the ability to break array formations, he was able to easily break through all the restrictions in the valley."

As he looked at the silver-masked genius, who acted like no one was around, Ye Chenfeng revealed a shocked expression. He finally understood why the young man was so confident.

The formation of the four beasts continuously broke apart the formation pattern and attacked. The silver-faced genius arrived beside the Purple Ghost Flower that had been growing for tens of thousands of years and reached his hand out to pick the Spirit Flower, but was attacked instead.

A powerful soul force was released from the purple ghost flower basin sized flower, wanting to break through his soul sea and tear his soul apart.

However, the silver-masked genius' methods were shocking. He let out a dragon's roar, like a tiger's roar, and shattered the soul attack released by the Purple Ghost Flower. He broke the flower stem and picked the precious Purple Ghost Flower.

"Fellow 17, this Purple Ghost Flower is for you!"

The silver-masked genius pushed off the tip of his feet and flew out of the valley, which was filled with powerful formation runes. He returned to Ye Chenfeng's side and gave him the precious Purple Ghost Flower.

"Are you really that generous to give me the Purple Ghost Flowers?"

Ye Chenfeng did not accept the Purple Ghost Flower that the silver-masked genius handed to him, and instead asked.

"Alright, I won't hide my purpose. There is a spiritual object in the ancient medicine garden that is extremely important to me. As long as you can help me pick it, I won't take anything else from the garden. I'll also do my best to help you pick it!" The silver-masked genius said.

"What spiritual object do you want in the ancient medicine garden?" Ye Chenfeng asked.

"Death Mandala Flower!" The silver-masked genius said hoarsely.

"Alright, I'll help you pick the Mandala Flower. Help me pick the other ancient medicines!"

Although the value of the Death Mandala Flower was extremely high, other than harboring a strong accident in the path of death, it also contained a mysterious power, but the value of the evolved bloodline surpassed the value of ordinary Great Dao Pills, the Blood Dragon Ginseng was even more important to Ye Chen. He thought for a moment, then agreed to accept the Purple Ghost Flower that the silver-masked genius handed to him.

"Let's go, it's almost dark. Let's find a safe place to rest first. We'll continue to penetrate deep into the ancient ruins tomorrow morning!"

In the dark night, the ancient ruins were even more dangerous. The two of them found a relatively safe cave before nightfall and went inside to rest.

"I still don't know your name?"

Ye Zichen leaned against the cold cave wall and drank a mouthful of Green Bamboo Leaf Wine, then asked the silver-masked genius, who had a mysterious background and had his eyes closed as he adjusted his breathing.

"Xia Wen!"

The silver-masked genius said hoarsely.

"By the way, are you a man?"

The corner of Ye Zichen's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a slight curve as he asked in a thought-provoking manner.

"What do you mean!"

Xia Wen's eyes emitted a cold light as he coldly asked.

"It's nothing. I'm just a bit confused. Why would there be a faint scent of makeup coming from a man?" Ye Chenfeng said with a smile.

"Dog nose!" Xia Wen spat out three words, then ignored Ye Chenfeng and continued to regulate his breathing with his eyes closed.

Ye Chenfeng: "…"

The night was getting deeper and deeper.

Ye Chenfeng saw that Xia Wen had completely entered a state of cultivation, so he took out the Purple Ghost Flower that she gifted him and spat out a mouthful of Black Flame. He then melted it, refined it into pure spiritual liquid and swallowed it.

All of a sudden, a large amount of soul power exploded out of Ye Zichen's mouth and surged into his soul realm.

"Sword Soul, fuse!"

Ye Chenfeng did not merge the soul power within the Purple Ghost Flower into the Blood Dragon Emperor. Instead, he fused it all into his sword spirit, raising its power.

The night passed by quickly. After a night of cultivation and the fusion of the soul power from the Purple Ghost Flower, the power of the sword spirit improved slightly. However, the attacking amplitude towards Ye Zichen increased by a lot.

Seeing the sky brightening, the two of them didn't linger and flew out of the secluded cave. Following the directions on the map, they continued to fly toward the medicinal garden hidden deep within the ancient ruins.
