Chapter 2038: A Land Littered with Heavenly Resources

“Xiao Zheng, you probably aren’t telling us this for nothing, right? State your conditions,” said Jian Chen. Xiao Zheng had approached them purposefully as soon as he had appeared. He was extremely enthusiastic and active, so he probably had some other intentions in mind.

Xiao Zheng was surprised by Jian Chen’s words before immediately smiling, “You misunderstand. I only saw that your knowledge of the situation inside the Neptunean Divine Palace was lacking, so I wanted to share some of the information I knew with you, hoping that it would provide you with some hope.”

“And the information I’ve told you really is no secret. I believe that most people who have come into the Neptunean Divine Palace know some things about this, so why would I demand conditions for worthless information?”

“Although I can’t exactly say I’m a completely righteous person, I’m not shameless enough to do something like that.”

Xiao Zheng said righteously as his expression seemed somewhat dignified. He gave off a righteous air.

Jian Chen looked at Xiao Zheng calmly. He thought of the divine king of the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian from Xiao Zheng’s presence.

The presence that Xiao Zheng gave off right now was extremely similar to the divine king. It was the presence of a ruler.

Normally, only rulers who reigned over an entire region and had a great status would possess a presence like this.

At this moment, Xiao Zheng paused before clasping his hands at Jian Chen’s group. He said, “Of course, if you don’t mind, I can be a guide for you. Although I don’t understand everything about the Neptunean Divine Palace, I do know about most of it.”

Jian Chen was interested in Xiao Zheng’s suggestion. They just happened to lack a guide that could help them avoid a few winds in the road, so he immediately agreed to Xiao Zheng’s suggestion.

Afterwards, Xiao Zheng joined Jian Chen’s group successfully before directly taking them towards the Divine Medicinal Garden.

Along the way, Jian Chen and the others got to know Xiao Zheng a little. He came from the Heniu Plane, which was quite close to the Neptunean Divine Palace. As a matter of fact, the Heniu Plane was clearly visible from outside the Neptunean Divine Palace.

Xiao Zheng did not come from some large sect or clan. Instead, he was the divine king of a divine kingdom.

The divine kingdom’s size was about the same as the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian, but due to its extremely remote location and lack of resources, the entire kingdom only had a single Godking, Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Zheng had come into the Neptunean Divine Palace many times already. He would pay a certain price each time to buy a spot from other organisations.

The ninth floor was simply far too vast. Even when they moved at their full speed, it took them an entire day to arrive at the Divine Medicinal Garden Xiao Zheng mentioned.

The garden was located in a valley surrounded by mountains. Only a winding path served as an entrance.

“What dense origin energy. All the spiritual veins of the ninth floor gather in this valley, where all of them nourish this place,” Jian Chen could not help but sigh in surprise as he stood at the entrance to the valley. Under these conditions, even an Immortal Tier heavenly resource would be able to evolve into a God Tier heavenly resource in an extremely short amount of time if it were planted here.

They followed the winding path and hovered into the valley.

As soon as they entered the valley, everyone apart from Xiao Zheng was stunned by the landscape around them. They stared at it dumbstruck, where astonishment filled their faces.

The huge valley was littered with heavenly resources. They were on the ground, the mountain peaks, and the cliffs. It was unimaginable.

All of these heavenly resources had reached the God Tier without any exception. They were extremely valuable.

Even if some of the heavenly resources there were of the Immortal Tier, they had evolved into God Tier under the unique conditions of the valley after such a long period of growing here.

The only pity was that all these God Tier heavenly resources were protected by a powerful layer of formations. Obtaining them would be extremely difficult.

Over a thousand people had gathered in the Divine Medicinal Garden. They tried all types of methods to get through the formations that protected the heavenly resources as booms constantly rang out.

“Oh my god, there are actually so many God Tier heavenly resources here. Even I have never heard of so many God Tier heavenly resources gathered in a single place,” Yun Xin sighed in surprise as her eyes burned with desire.

Probably no one could remain composed after seeing such a terrifying amount of God Tier heavenly resources.

“There are actually over a dozen Flowers of Ways here…” Jian Chen slowly scanned across the place as he sighed in surprise.

In the past, fairy Hao Yue had killed the nine Godkings that protected the Yin Mountains of Sevens Despair and even offended the ninth prince of the Blood Sun Empire for a single Flower of Ways.

Yet, there were over a dozen Flower of Ways here, and from their grade, they seemed to be far better than the one fairy Hao Yue had obtained before. It truly was a Divine Medicinal Garden.

“Although there are many heavenly resources here, only a little over a dozen of them are taken away each time the Neptunean Divine Palace is opened,” Xiao Zheng sighed gently.

“Let me get through the formations,” master Chanlong became interested as well. His breath became rather ragged. Clearly, he was struggling to maintain his composure as well.

Immediately, he arrived before the nearest heavenly resource and began to study the formation so that he could get through it.

At this moment, a bloodied, middle-aged man in tattered clothes ran over mindlessly, charging up the winding path as if he was fleeing for his life. When he discovered the garden, he came to a halt and was slightly surprised as well. His face immediately changed drastically, and he wanted to turn around and flee.

The only entrance to the Divine Medicinal Garden was the winding path. There were formations in the surrounding mountains, making it impossible to fly out. However, the middle-aged man was clearly being hunted down by enemies, so coming to the dead end of the Divine Medicinal Garden basically guaranteed his death.

The middle-aged man’s arrival naturally drew the attention of some of the people nearby. Quite a few people looked over with strange gazes.

Yun Xin discovered him as well. However, when she saw the bloodied middle-aged man, her face immediately changed, and she subconsciously called out, “Uncle Lai!”

The middle-aged man immediately shuddered from that. He stopped unconsciously to look back at Yun Xin as he became extremely stunned.

Jian Chen and Kai Ya also recognised this middle-aged man. They were surprised.

They had seen this middle-aged man before. He was one of the sixteen Godkings of the Yun family. His name was Yun Daolai.

Yun Daolai’s surprise only lasted for a short while. After seeing Yun Xin, he immediately ran back, arriving before her in a flash. He shoved a Space Ring into Yun Xin’s hand without raising any attention and said to her secretly, “Take this ring and leave here immediately. Go!”

After that, Yun Daolai left in a hurry. He seemed extremely frantic.
