The closer Yang Che got to the Dragon Breath Mountain Range, the more excited he became.
But at the same time, he undoubtedly felt uneasy and apprehensive.
After all, several years had passed, and it was not impossible for his Immortal Cave to have been discovered and intruded upon.
Fortunately, this worry vanished into thin air when he arrived at the Tongyou Immortal Cave.
By this time, the sky was already dark, and with Yang Che using his 'Stealth Technique', no one could detect him.
At the entrance of the Immortal Cave, the 'Small Three Talents Illusion Concealment Array' formed by three gray Formation Flags was still in effect.
Yang Che entered the Tongyou Cave with ease, and couldn't help but be stunned.
The Spiritual Qi here was extremely rich; just taking a breath made him feel refreshed all over.
The 'Small Reverse Chaos Four Symbols Array' that concealed the entrance to the Inner Cave Mansion's long corridor had long since lost its function due to the exhaustion of its Spirit Stone energy.
At this moment, in that long corridor passage, Yang Che clearly saw dense, unknown flying insects either clinging to the stone walls or flying around, emitting very strange sounds.
When Yang Che entered the Immortal Cave, these flying insects immediately swarmed forward, all intimately circling and flying around Yang Che.
Yang Che's heart stirred, and he immediately passed through the long corridor to the Inner Cave Mansion.
His attention naturally first turned to the Spiritual Soil.
The Spiritual Soil was intact.
However, when Yang Che approached, he found that the leaves and stems of the nine-leaf dark yang fruit were covered with flying insects.
The already ripe fruits and flower leaves of the nine-leaf dark yang fruit had actually been gnawed by these flying insects.
Among them, there was one particularly large flying insect that was currently sucking on a semi-ripe mo yang fruit.
Yang Che reached out, and this large flying insect immediately flew obediently into Yang Che's palm.
He immediately sensed that this large flying insect was precisely hatched from the unknown insect eggs on the brocade handkerchief he had found earlier.
Observing this large flying insect closely, Yang Che found that it resembled a dragonfly he had caught as a child in Yang Village?
But this dragonfly was very unusual.
Its entire body was crimson and hard, and its four wings on its back, each one, were like incredibly sharp steel blades.
Its six long red and black legs were like six barbed saws, gleaming with terrifying eerie light.
The antennae covering its mouth were like tiny steel needles, and its huge eyes, upon closer inspection, were densely composed of thousands of tiny eyes.
Yang Che immediately took out the 'Controlling Beasts Scripture' he had obtained from that Beast Controlling Sect Cultivator.
He remembered that an appendix contained a 'List of Strange Birds, Strange Beasts, and Strange Insects', which listed many strange insects and exotic beasts in this world.
Turning to the appendix and comparing them one by one with the descriptions, Yang Che immediately learned that this strange dragonfly was called 'Winged Fire Dragonfly', ranking seventy-seventh on the List of Strange Insects.
This Winged Fire Dragonfly had wings like blades and legs like spears; it could cut and pierce hard stone while flying at high speed.
Moreover, it was very fire-resistant.
Even in flames, it could still fly freely.
The 'Winged Fire Dragonfly' had extremely strong reproductive capabilities.
Newly hatched Winged Fire Dragonflies could also continue to lay eggs, especially on spiritual objects, where not only did hatching accelerate, but there was also a certain chance of evolution.
To be called a 'Strange Insect', it was naturally extraordinary.
Yang Che was fortunate that he had promptly used the Control Spirit Art to drip his essence blood into this mother egg, which allowed him to easily control this large number of 'Winged Fire Dragonflies' with just a thought.
Yang Che squatted in front of the Spiritual Soil and found that the black Spirit Eye Tree seedling had also grown quite a bit.
The extreme richness of Spiritual Qi here was naturally mainly due to this Spirit Eye Tree.
At the same time, because of the existence of this Spirit Eye Tree, even the Spirit Medicine and Spiritual Plant that were not planted in the Spiritual Soil were growing pleasingly, and many were even nearing maturity.
Yang Che suppressed his inner joy and quickly put the Winged Fire Dragonfly, the Spiritual Soil, all the Spirit Medicine and Spiritual Plant, as well as the Small Reverse Chaos Four Symbols Array and the Small Three Talents Illusion Concealment Array, into the 'Void Illusion Magic Stone Space'.
Currently, the Void Illusion Magic Stone Space only had two 'green areas'.
One was the 'Purple King Pavilion' already occupied by the Purple-haired girl.
The other was only half the size of the Purple King Pavilion.
Since this void illusion demon stone had already become a part of Yang Che's body and formed its own Small World space, Yang Che could enter it at any time.
Undoubtedly, he transplanted the Spiritual Soil, the Spirit Eye Tree seedling, the nine-leaf dark yang fruit, and all the Spirit Medicine and Spiritual Plant into the only green area apart from the Purple King Pavilion.
Not only that, but he also planted a large number of Spirit Medicine and Spiritual Plant seedlings he had harvested from the Mist Hidden Sea in this green area.
As a result, this green area had almost completely transformed into a large medicine garden.
So Yang Che simply named this green area 'Tongyou Medicine Garden'.
With the existence of the Spirit Eye Tree seedling, this Tongyou Medicine Garden was bound to become a true Spirit Medicine Garden.
After settling everything, Yang Che left the Void Illusion Magic Stone Space and reappeared on Dragon Breath Mountain.
Without any hesitation, Yang Che headed straight for the foot of Qihuang Mountain and directly left Wulong Valley.
All the items from the Tongyou Immortal Cave had been safely retrieved, so there was naturally nothing left in Wulong Valley for him to linger over.
After leaving Wulong Valley, Yang Che thought for a moment and decided to visit the 'Hanging Waterfall Medicine Garden' before returning to the Qing Jian Sect to peacefully refine Foundation Establishment Pills and begin his assault on Foundation Establishment.
Moreover, he had already completed the Inner Sea training mission, and upon returning to the Qing Jian Sect, he could at least obtain two more Foundation Establishment Pills.
...
Soon, arriving at the familiar waterfall, Yang Che directly passed through the waterfall and walked inside.
"This is a vital area of Wulong Valley. Stop, newcomer."
As soon as Yang Che entered, he was stopped by the Disciple on guard.
"I am here to find Junior Martial Uncle Wen Xingyao. Please inform him." Yang Che's tone was calm and very polite.
The Disciple on guard looked suspicious and said, "Looking for Junior Martial Uncle Wen? But Junior Martial Uncle Wen hasn't been here for a year."
"Oh? May I ask where Junior Martial Uncle Wen went?"
Yang Che was a little surprised.
"You don't know?" The Disciple on guard thought Yang Che was also a Disciple of Wulong Valley.
Yang Che shook his head, his mind suddenly shifted, and he quietly slipped two Spirit Stones to the Disciple, then said, "I was in secluded cultivation for several years and just came out, so..."
The Disciple on guard skillfully put away the Spirit Stones, a look of sudden realization on his face, and said,
"Oh, so you were in secluded cultivation, no wonder you don't know. More than a year ago, Junior Martial Uncle Wen was reported by someone in the Sect, saying she showed favoritism, and also that she was ineffective in guarding the medicine garden, not even knowing that very precious Spiritual Plant within the medicine garden had been dug up. So Junior Martial Uncle Wen was sent by the Sect to the 'Wu Mountain Mine' to be responsible for mining."
Upon hearing this, Yang Che's heart sank slightly, vaguely feeling that Wen Xingyao's punishment was mostly related to himself.
After thanking the Disciple on guard, Yang Che pondered for a while and decided to visit the 'Wu Mountain Mine'.
He naturally knew about this 'Wu Mountain Mine'.
This mine was a Ling Stone Mine, rich in Spirit Stone, and one of Wulong Valley's most important industries.
Wulong Valley not only dispatched a large number of Foundation Establishment Stage Disciple to guard and be stationed there, but even a Golden Core Stage expert regularly came to inspect it.
However, this Wu Mountain Mine was not close to the Wulong Valley Sect's location.
Yang Che flew for a full day and night before reaching the Wu Mountain Mine.
When Yang Che stated his purpose, saying he had come to find Wen Xingyao, several Foundation Establishment Stage Disciple quickly rushed out from within the mine, each with fierce eyes, looking like they meant trouble.
