The Peerless Emperor
Chapter 992 - 993: Frostmane Savage Lion
For the Huaxia Empire to develop better, the more complete the variety of species it possesses, the better it is naturally.
With the golden fur, no kind of Spiritual Medicine can escape from Lin Qian's grasp.
The Heroes Gathering has been going on for a full three years, and during this time, apart from the fourth-generation disciples of the Wei family and Lin Qian staying back, disciples from other forces have already headed towards the interior to explore more opportunities.
The Wei family and others are in no hurry at all; in their eyes, this garden has already turned into a huge treasure trove.
"This relic, I'm afraid it really is as the rumor says, it's going to collapse." Walking in the garden, He Wencai looked up and sighed.
At this time, the other disciples of the Wei family beside him also looked up.
Above the sky within the relic, faint cracks appeared. These were signs of space fissures, indicators that a space collapse often starts with these space fissures.
Seeing the space fissures appearing in mid-air, the fourth-generation disciples of the Wei family remained silent.
Indeed, the signs of this space collapsing have gradually started to manifest.
They know very well about the experiences of the genius disciples who entered the relic in past Heroes Gatherings; compared to the past, there's been a lot of change this time.
For example, days are longer and nights are shorter, or the changes in the sky now.
Of course, in their view, the biggest anomaly stems from Lin Qian; his very existence is an unstable element.
The eerie situation in the medicinal garden was also noticed by them.
They experienced firsthand that the Grotto Heaven Soul Device could be used.
Now, the Grotto Heaven Soul Device is already brimming with hunted soul beasts, yet none of them have perished, all thanks to the pills given by Lin Qian.
If it weren't for those pills, Wei Xinyu and He Wencai might not be standing alive here now.
Wei Xiaogang and Wei Sulan too might have been half-destroyed if not for Lin Qian's pills that turned their troubles into safety.
During this period, they consumed the Spiritual Medicine gifted by Lin Qian from the medicinal garden, and after training and battles, their realms have progressed within these short three years.
As the elder brother, Wei Changming, even though his realm remained at Ninth Level of the Star Control realm, his combat power improved significantly, and the stars he mastered have upgraded to Fifth Grade.
The stars he mastered could actually evolve into Fourth Grade, but due to his control and limited aptitude, he couldn't advance.
However, after taking Spiritual Medicine, his aptitude improved, and the stars he mastered successfully advanced.
As a result, his combat power has improved by leaps and bounds.
Wei Guichang, Wei Sulan, Wei Xinyu, and He Wencai, who were originally at the Fifth Level of Star Control realm, astonishingly jumped two levels, directly reaching the Seventh Level of Star Control realm.
The life-and-death battles with the soul beasts over these three years completely unleashed the medicinal power of the Spiritual Medicine within them, and they were already on the brink of breaking through.
The Spiritual Medicine given by Lin Qian was of Saint grade, and more than just one or two plants. Consuming it so vigorously, not advancing two levels wouldn't even make sense.
As for Wei Xiaogang, he also advanced to the Seventh Level from Star Control realm, with his Fourth Grade stars mastering similarly to Wei Changming's situation, successfully upgrading.
The Wei family is keenly aware of these developments because they occurred in the star realms of the Wei family.
Therefore, the people of the Wei family are extremely delighted, knowing their descendants must have received great benefits in these relics.
Wei Yifan and Wei Xihua advanced from Seventh Level of Star Control realm to Eighth Level.
Wei Xiangyang, Wei Xiangjin, and Wei Hang all advanced from Eighth Level of Star Control realm to Ninth Level.
Thus, the members of the Wei family who participated in this Heroes Gathering have made rapid progress, and their status in this relic is evidently different now.
In their estimation, even without Lin Qian and Zhao Long, they could dominate over the disciples of those top forces, rather than merely being evenly matched.
Considering Lin Qian and Zhao Long's strength, even in comparison to those of Overlord Level forces, they wouldn't necessarily suffer defeat.
"No need to go forward, Brother Lin has already swept through." Wei Changming looked ahead at the chaotic area and spoke.
The garden is vast, and if they weren't purposely hurrying on their journey but instead hunting and training against soul beasts, they would only manage to cover a part in three years.
The group moved forward, glancing ahead, with expressions of mixed laughter and helplessness on their faces.
Ahead, the Spirit Woods had vanished, the ground turned over, with ravines crisscrossing, and the wrecked corpses of soul beasts scattered.
When they first encountered such situations, they were at a loss, not knowing what had happened.
Not until two years ago, when they met Lin Qian by chance did they learn he was responsible for all of this.
In the garden, many precious Spirit Woods were planted everywhere, and some wild, rare Spiritual Medicines were among them.
Often, strong soul beasts would guard these Spirit Woods and Spiritual Medicines, and when Lin Qian, aided by the golden fur, found them, conflicts were inevitable.
At that moment, Zhao Long would strike directly, and Lin Qian would store the Spirit Woods and Spiritual Medicines into the Xuanhuan Star.
Every time Zhao Long acted, he would be extremely excited and strike with full force, so it's no surprise the areas they touched became such a mess.
So upon seeing the devastation before them, they knew Lin Qian must have been here and taken some precious Spirit Woods and Spiritual Medicines.
"Frost Lion... if we had acted, each of us would have needed to pay the heavy price of severe injuries to barely take it down." Walking to the center of the carnage, where two huge soul beast corpses lay, and on the other side was an obvious empty nest.
Wei Changming looked at the scene before him, speaking with emotion.
Wei Xiaogang glanced at the ground nearby, inscribed with the word Huaxia, and shrugged: "I'm sure the cub was taken by Brother Lin, and these corpses were probably left to be gifted to us."
"Brother Lin is truly good to us." Wei Xihua clicked his tongue, looking at Wei Xiaogang and Wei Sulan. "Speaking of which, after returning to the Wei family, you two have to apologize with that younger brother of yours."
On the other side, Wei Xiaogang and Wei Sulan exchanged a look and smiled wryly. "That's a given; the first thing we do when we get back is that."
"No apology needed. That punch back then was already a lesson." At this moment, Lin Qian's voice suddenly rang out, and everyone turned to find him emerging from the woods.
Seeing Lin Qian, everyone wore expressions of solemnity.
