Dahua’s establishment was indeed through the efforts of Xu Junhe. When Li Xuan focused for a moment, he heard the conversation between Xu Junhe and Kou Ruozhi in the Chang Qing Pavilion.

The two were discussing how to stake a claim in the Inner Domain.

Tieshan County, part of the Lanping territory of the Da Yue Kingdom, is the first hurdle if Dahua dreams of gaining a foothold in the Inner Domain.

The initial establishment of Dahua was not formidable, having less than a hundred Martial Artists.

To resist the suppression of the Da Yue Kingdom was difficult. Thus, the two figured out they need to proceed slowly, waiting for their power to grow without rushing to establish the name of Dahua.

“Brother Xu, isn’t this origin of heaven and earth, Dahua is an orthodoxy,’ an easy way to irritate those in the Inner Domain? Aren’t we playing too big a game?”

Kou Ruozhi said with some worry.

Originally a remote and uncivilized land, the statement ‘origin of heaven and earth, Dahua is an orthodoxy’ claiming that Dahua as the orthodoxy of the world is certainly provocative to the Inner Domain.

Those who originally sat by and watched the dispute between Dahua and Da Yue Kingdom are likely unable to resist taking action against Dahua.

However, Xu Junhe merely smiled slightly and said: “What you said is correct. But Dahua is what I mentioned, not the border. The Inner Domain can also be Dahua, cannot it?”

Kou Ruozhi twitched at the corner of his mouth, “The Inner Domain has to approve it!”

“With more people practicing Dahlia’s Martial Arts, there will naturally be approval. Just a matter of time.”

Xu Junhe said cheerfully.

Li Xuan, who was listening to their conversation, muttered to himself that Dahlia’s entry to the Inner Domain is going to bring about a storm of Martial Arts.

After a round of fighting, if they find that Dahlia’s Martial Arts is stronger than the Inner Domain Martial Arts, it can be imagined that the young people of the Inner Domain who desire to pursue Martial Arts will, of course, choose to practice Dahlia’s Martial Arts.

Why practice Martial Arts? Isn’t it for strength, for living longer?

No one would abandon the cultivation of a powerful martial art, only to learn a weaker one.

In this phase of the intertwining of two kinds of Martial Arts, a storm is bound to be set off in the Inner Domain. But this storm is still too far away for him.

In the short term, it can’t be stirred up.

Dahua is still too weak now, crossing the line of a hundred Martial Artists only now.

“If the Inner Domain became all Dahua, with my created Martial Arts taking over the existing ones, what feedback would I receive?”

As Li Xuan thought about this, he couldn’t help but look forward to it.

People like Xu Junhe, Kou Ruozhi, Guo Rongshan, Emperor Qi, The Emperor of Wu, are not fools. They know that Dahua is weak and wouldn’t rashly clash with the Inner Domain. Instead, they would slowly infiltrate and gradually strengthen themselves.

Xu Yan and Meng Chong are sure to become representatives of Dahlia’s Martial Arts.

The more distinguished the two become, the more practitioners they’ll draw to Dahlia’s Martial Arts.

The establishment of Dahua, as well as Tieshan County’s quiet transformation because of the arrival of the Chang Qing Pavilion, were unbeknownst to Xu Yan and Meng Chong who were en route to a place rich in Spiritual Medicine.

The three of them finally arrived at the outskirts of the treasure land.

“Senior Brother Xu, do you see that mountain range? There’s a valley there with a deep pool. Spiritual Energy accumulates within the valley, forming a treasure land where Spiritual Medecine grows.

“The water from the pool gushes from underground, rich with the Spiritual Energy of the Earth, making it better suited for the growth of Spiritual Medecine. The cliffs in the valley are where the people in black cloaks reside.

“There’s a suspicion that within one of those cliff caves, grows a five-grade Spiritual Medicine. And perhaps there’s more than one place within the entire cliff wall where Spiritual Medicine is growing, perhaps there’s more than one five-grade Spiritual Medicine.”

Meng Shushu pointed to the mountain peak in front of them and said.

“If this is really the lair of the people in black cloaks, there must be many strong warriors. We should be cautious, don’t let anyone escape. And if this is only one of their branches, we should absolutely prevent them from sending any messages.”

Xu Yan said in deep voice.

“Killing the flying pigeons will naturally cut off their communication. But these pigeons are fast and extremely sensitive. They would fly away long before strangers approach.

“This is one of the methods used by major forces to keep a lookout.”

Meng Shushu furrowed his brows.

Xu Yan and Meng Chong couldn’t help but frown. To cut off communication, they had to kill the pigeons. But to kill them, they would be inevitably stopped by the men in black cloaks.

Once they encountered resistance, they might not be able to exterminate all the pigeons.

Moreover, they didn’t know where the pigeons were hiding.

“Is there anything that could attract these pigeons?”

Xu Yan asked Meng Shushu.

“Pigeons usually eat spiritual beans, but attracting them with unknown beans is almost impossible. These pigeons would not eat unfamiliar spiritual beans.”

Meng Shushu shook his head.

Xu Yan paused for a moment, took out a small bottle, and poured out a few pills, “Do you think these pills could attract the pigeons?”

“This…”

Looking at the pill in his palm, Meng Shushu’s eyes lit up, but he was unsure if they could attract the pigeons.

“Let’s give it a try. Elder Sister says there’s a chance this pill might attract the Mountain Swallowing Toad. If it can attract the toad, why not the pigeon?”

Xu Yan decided to give it a try.

The pill in his hand was one that Su Lingxiu had created for practice. It had the effect of attracting spiritual beasts and might draw the Mountain Swallowing Toad out of hiding.

This was a key ingredient to make an storage bag.

Xu Yan carried the pill with him, thinking maybe he’d have a chance to catch a Mountain Swallowing Toad and slipped it into his pocket.

The three moved forward cautiously. When they were twenty miles from the mountain, Meng Chong and Meng Shushu stayed where they were. Xu Yan advanced alone, making no sound as he approached.

Outside the valley, he found a suitable place, crushed a pill, and a unique scent scattered into the air.

This scent mingled with the fragrance of grass and trees, making it imperceptible to human noses and not likely to alert the people inside the valley..
