He curiously flew over, landed, and decided to investigate further.

Through some faint light, he saw two groups fighting, seemingly over something.

Besides, these two sects seemed to be medium-sized ones, among them were experts at the Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Peak, but their overall strength was far inferior to larger sects.

"You Jun, I discovered this Black Lotus Grass first, what are you trying to do?" Fu Haowei inquired.

"What am I doing? Of course, I'm taking it. As long as the flower has no owner for a day, anyone has the right to claim it," You Jun responded.

This Black Lotus Grass was a treasure he had always wanted. Outside the Secret Realm, such things were almost extinct, so seeing a stalk here, he certainly wouldn't miss it.

Hearing the name Black Lotus Grass, Lin Yifan was slightly startled, because it was an extremely rare medicinal herb, hard to come by and highly sought after.

However, in the Medicinal Saint Valley, it would not exist because Black Lotus Grass is highly toxic and an essential raw material for making advanced poisons.

The disciples of these two medium-sized sects were vying for this Black Lotus Grass, probably with ulterior motives.

Using poison to deal with enemies is a method, so Lin Yifan was also somewhat tempted.

Xiao Fang didn't want to step into this mess, nor did she want Lin Yifan to compete for that poisonous herb, so she persuaded him to leave.

Lin Yifan clung to not leaving, seemingly having made up his mind.

At this moment, Xiao Fang was a bit angry and quietly asked: "Yifan, what do you want the Black Lotus Grass for? Do you really want to become a person of unpardonable evil?"

"Fangfang, don't be agitated. Poison, when used in the right place, can transform waste into treasure. It can also be refined into elixirs that use poison to counteract poison, so don't condemn all toxic things outright. They might have potential value."

"Black Lotus Grass is a highly toxic substance, aside from harming people, what potential value does it have?" Xiao Fang questioned.

"Junior Sister Fang, Junior Brother Lin is right. Not everything is bad; it depends on how you view it."

Du Yuze disagreed with Xiao Fang's opinion, retorting.

Xiao Fang thought quietly for a moment, realizing she had been a bit too emotional and had not trusted Lin Yifan's character. So she calmly asked, "Yifan, what do you want to use the Black Lotus Grass for?"

"To kill villains or ferocious spirit beasts," Lin Yifan answered bluntly.

In any case, he would not use the Black Lotus Grass to harm innocent people.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Lin Yifan did not act recklessly.

However, the Medicinal Saint Valley had always had a good reputation, and seizing such poisonous things, if it got out, the reputation might be tarnished.

Thus, she explained to Lin Yifan and Du Yuze, hoping they would consider it carefully.

Reputation is something proven by actions, not maintained by others' words; as long as he did not have a dark heart, the reputation would not be damaged.

So Du Yuze and Lin Yifan felt no burden and remained calm.

Xiao Fang was also amazed that the two would hold the reputation of the Medicinal Saint Valley in such low regard.

It was understandable for Lin Yifan, but how could Senior Brother Du, who had spent all his life in the Medicinal Saint Valley, think the same way? Didn't he care for the valley?

On the other side, negotiations failed, and the disciples of the two sects began fighting fiercely again.

The intense battle caused the spirit beast guarding the Black Lotus Grass to return.

It was a Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Peak two-headed snake, its power was formidable.

The disciples of the two medium-sized sects were terrified, especially those with lower realms, as they had never seen a spirit beast with such a high realm and fierce movement.

Disciples below the Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Peak stopped fighting, retreating to let their respective senior brothers at the same realm deal with the two-headed snake.

Staring at this two-headed snake, which was many times larger than themselves, You Jun and Fu Haowei swallowed hard, feeling a hint of pressure.

Although their realm was the same as the two-headed snake, defeating it was another matter.

On the other side, Du Yuze felt the same. This two-headed snake was enormous, more than twice the size of the one that killed his two junior brothers, giving a sense of being a wild beast from ancient times.

Xiao Fang was so scared she wet her pants, hiding behind Lin Yifan, trembling.

Lin Yifan felt fine because he had seen powerful spirit beasts before and had developed an immunity.

Seeing spirit beasts of similar realms at different realms feels the same. When he first saw those black spiders and the Sword-Toothed Tiger in the Beixuan Palace Secret Realm, he was frightened for quite a while.

But eventually, as his realm improved, he no longer feared the spirit beasts from the Beixuan Palace's secret manual.

The two-headed snake's exposure revealed that, undoubtedly, this Black Lotus Grass belonged to it, meaning it was owned. Hence, You Jun and Fu Haowei must kill this two-headed snake to claim it.

The two exchanged glances, both agreeing to join forces to deal with the two-headed snake.

Enemies turned allies, united against a common foe.

With knife and sword in hand, attacking the two heads of the two-headed snake from left and right.

To slay a snake, chopping its head off solves the problem, so they immediately aimed at the most lethal part of the two-headed snake.

However, the two-headed snake's heads had been self-reinforced long ago, making it not easy for these two humans to chop them off.

Sure enough, after slashing and chopping, You Jun and Fu Haowei struggled, feeling as if their blades were striking hard stone, unable to cut through.

After their initial attempt failed, it was the two-headed snake's turn to strike back. It swiftly thrust its heads, attempting to bite You Jun and Fu Haowei to death.

Its head thrust was incredibly quick, like lightning. Generally, if not paying attention, ninety-nine percent would be bitten.

You Jun and Fu Haowei were right in front of the two-headed snake, so they had extremely limited time to react.

Seeing the two-headed snake make its move, they readied to respond instinctively.

Not knowing if they could dodge, they could only try.

So they displayed the most extreme Qinggong they had comprehended so far, dodging in opposite directions.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

They had barely moved half a second ago when a huge maw appeared where they had just been, truly a narrow escape.

Fear lingered, and You Jun and Fu Haowei couldn't decide whether to continue or not.

Having exchanged one move, they had little confidence in defeating the Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Peak two-headed snake; staying here might endanger their lives, so they hesitated, deliberating.

After a moment of thought, seeing the shiny Black Lotus Grass not far away, they were tempted again, as if some kind of magic was stoking their fighting spirit.

They gritted their teeth, clenched their weapons, vowing to take down the Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Peak two-headed snake.

They then raised their swords and knives again, attacking the two-headed snake.
