A golden eagle that seemed to cover the entire sky and cover the earth was soaring in the sky. It was flying at an extremely fast speed, and was heading straight towards the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range.

On the back of this giant golden eagle stood two young men and women.

He, Xiao Zichen.

Below Tianwu Gate, in addition to being the first clan head of the Medicinal Incense Family, the second clan head of the Xiao Clan, Xiao Lanfeng's eldest son.

This person was not very old, but he had an extraordinary talent for medicinal herb searching. Let alone thousands of miles away, he could even accurately find a spiritual herb he needed to find.

At this moment, the woman standing beside him looked to be about eighteen, and possessed an impressive figure.

Her snow-white skin was as tender as a baby's; her face was painted with makeup that could topple cities and topple empires; her curved eyelashes were like the crescent moon; her intelligent eyes were watery; and her face was as beautiful as a fairy.

This woman had an elegant demeanor, but she did not lose her enchanting charm.

She, Zhuang Liandie.

She was enemies with her cousin Zhuang Mengyu, ever since she was young. She started to talk about the grudges from the previous generation.

However, it would be hard for Zhuang Tianyu to learn when he was young. He would become a real silkpants, but when he grows up, he would become completely useless.

On the other hand, his little sister had studied well since she was young and had cultivated a strong martial arts cultivation. Moreover, she had an extraordinary talent in finding medicine and had obtained an unshakable status within her family.

After that, a new Patriarch was bestowed with a title by the higher ups of the family.

In this way, Zhuang Tianyu's position in the clan had plummeted.

Furthermore, after Zhuang Mengyu's father, the current manager of the Xuexuan Medicine Company in the Rain, Ji Shiyu, joined the Zhuang Family, she gave birth to a prodigy who was innately good at managing the family's businesses, stabilizing the family's position.

This caused Zhuang Liandie to be jealous, but of course, there was also the urge from her father Zhuang Tianyu, causing her to distort her opinion of Zhuang Mengyu ever since she was a child.

This time, the reason why she came to the Hundred Thousand Mountains was so that she could break Zhuang Mengyu's dream. Bringing such a talented son of the Medicine Aroma Family, Xiao Zichen, in hopes of finding the location of the Cloud Mountain in front of her, proved that she was not inferior to Zhuang Mengyu in any way, and was even more powerful than him.

"Miss Zhuang is flying in this direction. Zhuang Mengyu's group is right in front!" At this time,, who was standing with her hands behind her back, turned to look at her and casually said.

Before Zhuang Mengyu had set off, he had already secretly made contact with him once under Zhuang Liandie's arrangements.

As someone who had an extraordinary talent for medicine, he was exceptionally sensitive to all kinds of odors. His sense of smell was heaven defying, and after coming in contact with Zhuang Mengyu, he immediately remembered the unique scent on her body.

Right now, he was precisely following this special scent, giving Zhuang Liandie directions and controlling the golden eagle to secretly chase closely behind.

"Xiao Jin, increase your speed and keep flying forward. You must find the exact location of the Cloud Mountain before Zhuang Mengyu does!" She then ordered the golden eagle below her feet.

As soon as his voice faded, the golden eagle raised its head and let out a long cry. It flapped its wings and flew faster.

In the blink of an eye, the mountain range beneath them retreated at top speed, leaving behind blurry afterimages.

The setting sun was blood-red.

The sky turned red.

After a day of trekking, Zhuang Mengyu led a group of medicine seeker s and finally reached the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range.

With the help of the afterglow of the setting sun, everyone looked at the complex mountain range in front of them with furrowed brows.

"It should be here. These crisscrossed mountain ranges are similar to the topographic map drawn on the sheepskin scroll, and according to the markings on the white zone, Cloud Mountain is within a thousand miles of here!" Zhuang Mengyu held onto the Old Sheep Scroll map, and after comparing it carefully, she muttered to herself.

Wu Hao stood at his side and looked around. The crisscrossing mountain range in front of him was indeed somewhat similar to the map that was drawn on the Old Sheep Scroll.

However, they were not very similar, only about fifty percent.

It was unknown if it was due to the existence of an illusory magic array, or the fact that 10,000 years of time had changed the appearance of rivers and mountains.

"Everyone, the Cloud Mountain should be within the radius of a thousand miles. Next, I would like to ask everyone to display your talent in searching for medicine, and help me find its exact location!" After Zhuang Mengyu said this to herself, she turned around and said to the medicine seeker s behind him.

She did not directly ask them if they smelled the unique medicinal fragrance. This was a very foolish question, if Cloud Mountain was so easy to find, they would not have been hidden away by the snow for so many years.

"Miss, the terrain here is complicated, and there is a lack of spirit energy. It is not suitable for the growth of all sorts of spirit materials. Are you sure the markings on the sheepskin scroll are here?" Just then, an elderly medicine seeker of the Zhuang Family looked at the crisscrossing mountain range in front of him and frowned.

With his decades of medicinal herbs searching, not to mention the fact that he had never smelled a single trace of the medicinal fragrance, the complicated terrain and lack of spiritual energy in front of him was not suitable for the growth of spiritual medicines.

As the number one medicinal clan in the Mountain and Sea Realm ten thousand years ago, how could its remains be so lacking in spiritual energy?

"Miss Zhuang, what she said is right, we do not feel that this is the place you are looking for, we do not smell any Spirit medicine here!"

The other medicine seeker s also said this to her.

After Zhuang Mengyu heard what they said, her brows knitted, and immediately turned her gaze towards the direction where Wu Hao was. She did not say a word, but her eyes started to look towards the mountain range far away from him.

His eyes lit up and he couldn't help but ask, "Second young master, do you think this is the place we're looking for?"

His gaze swept across the crowd and then said slowly: "Since Lady Zhuang thinks that this place is the Cloud Mountain that we are looking for, why not look for them. My party has come here with great difficulty, if there are any omissions, wouldn't it be a huge loss?"

"Ugh …"

His words caused everyone to be stunned for a moment, and then they thought that what he said was reasonable. This time, the Xuexuan Medicine Company in the Rain had offered a high price, no matter what, as the ones who were recruited, they should do their best to fulfill their responsibility, but for the Zhuang Family's medicine seeker, if they made a mistake, it would be the Zhuang Family's greatest mistake, they could not afford to lose it.

Only, they did not know that Wu Hao had said this to them on purpose.

This was because those that were recruited did not even know about the existence of the ancient medicinal fragrance families. They were only looking for the rare spiritual medicines in the Cloud Mountain.

"Everyone, the terrain here is similar to the map drawn on the sheepskin scroll. Second Young Master's words are reasonable, please do your best to not miss any of them!" Zhuang Mengyu seemed to understand the meaning behind Wu Hao's words, and anxiously seized the opportunity to speak to them in a serious tone.

This time, they did not refute him. After discussing among themselves for a while, they left in groups of two or three. Each of them displayed their respective innate skills in searching for medicine, and went to look for a possible Cloud Mountain.
