Chapter 106
Yi Feng carried a small bamboo basket down with the gorge.
While Wu Yonghong and the others hurried back to Pingjiang City as he had instructed.
"Heaven's Heart Reishi?"
After half a day's rush, Yi Feng finally found his target. He saw it growing alone on the sheer cliff face from afar.
Like a winter plum blossom blooming out of season, it stood out so distinctly!
Yi Feng put down his bamboo basket, took out a small shovel tucked in his waist, slapped his palms and climbed towards the cliff to pluck that Heaven's Heart Reishi.
Not far away.
A pitch-black crow was perched on an old vine-covered tree, with a large centipede crawling next to it.
There was something human-like in the eyes of the two animals.
"How's this Heaven's Heart Reishi?"
Suddenly, the crow spoke in a human tongue.
"I report to Master Hei Yu, this Heaven's Heart Reishi is ripe. We're just waiting for the Demon King to come harvest it."
At the same time, the centipede also spoke in a human tongue.
"Yes, the Demon King has been in closed-door cultivation these two days. He will come to harvest it himself after he finishes cultivating in two days." The crow said solemnly, "This Heaven's Heart Reishi is very important to the Demon King. You must guard it well and not let anything go wrong in these last two days."
"Yes, Master Hei Yu!" The centipede replied respectfully.
"Good!"
Seeing this, the crow nodded in satisfaction and subconsciously glanced at the Heaven's Heart Reishi.
"Caw!"
As soon as he looked, he was so shocked that his feathers almost fell off. Unbeknownst to them during their conversation, a human had already climbed up to the Heaven's Heart Reishi.
"Quick, stop that damned human!" The crow shouted loudly.
Hearing this, the centipede was also shocked.
Then it was extremely furious. Its innumerable feet clung onto the tree trunk as it charged swiftly towards the Heaven's Heart Reishi.
The crow was equally unwilling to fall behind. As a flying demonic beast, it was much faster than the centipede. It flapped its wings, crystalline coldness flashing from its sharp beak as it rushed straight at the human.
"What a fine thing!"
Yi Feng examined the Heaven's Heart Reishi before him, showing a satisfied smile. Just as he was about to pluck it, he noticed the crow charging right at him.
Yi Feng slightly tilted his head and easily dodged it.
"Huh?"
The crow was filled with disbelief. This human was just an ordinary mortal, yet he had evaded its attack so effortlessly?
Especially when it saw the human's palm already reaching the Heaven's Heart Reishi, the crow was immediately consumed with rage. Its wings spread wide, massive demonic power concentrating between its wings. With each flap, blasts of demonic energy surged towards Yi Feng.
"Damn pesky crow, scram!"
Yi Feng was extremely annoyed by the flapping crow. With a wave of his palm, he attempted to shoo it away.
"What?"
It was this wave of Yi Feng's palm that dispersed the massive blasts. The crow was filled with deep disbelief.
This is...
A tough opponent!
The crow became grave. But with this human trying to harvest the Heaven's Heart Reishi right before their eyes, they could not tolerate it.
Its body flashed as it transformed into a sharp sword, surging with demonic energy towards Yi Feng.
"Where did this damn crow come from, piss off!"
Yi Feng was sick and tired of this crow. He drew the small iron shovel from his back and swung it at the crow.
"Smack!"
With 100% accuracy, the shovel directly smacked the crow against the cliff wall. Feathers flew as it smashed heavily into the ground, dead beyond dead.
"Hiss!"
The centipede who had climbed halfway up saw this and was scared out of its wits. Its feet curled up in fear as it coiled around a rock, then scurried away on its numerous legs.
The esteemed Master Hei Yu, actually smacked to death by a shovel! As a small centipede, it was no match at all!
This human was no ordinary mortal, he was too terrifying!
And he even wanted to take away the Heaven's Heart Reishi. I must quickly report to the Demon King!
Soon, it drilled into a crevice and disappeared. In its haste, it seemed to have broken two of its numerous legs.
After smacking the crow to death, Yi Feng finally obtained the Heaven's Heart Reishi as he wished, completing one third of this trip's tasks!
"Next is the Water Spirit Grass, it should be in a place with water."
Yi Feng checked his map and headed towards his next destination.
