Time flew like an arrow, one month had passed quickly in floating peak, during this month, besides training, Luo Hao focused on researching the remnant soul arts.
At first, Li Shuang’er would come and find Luo Hao everyday to go, but every time, he would just go sightseeing.
After all, in the past, Li Shuang’er was the youngest among all the disciples in floating peak. Although Master and a few senior brothers all doted on her, there would always be a gap between their ages.
Hence, Li Shuang’er practically brought Luo Hao along every time he went out.
However, two days ago, Li Shuang’er had never come to find Luo Hao. Luo Hao sighed in his heart, and finally had a few days of peace.
In fact, in Luo Hao's heart, although Li Shuang’er's personality was a little unruly, but sometimes, when he had a small temper, it made him seem even cuter.
Therefore, Li Shuang’er had always been the heart and soul of the floating peak, and was always able to bring some laughter and jubilation to the depressed floating peak.
On this day, Luo Hao thought that Li Shuang’er still wouldn't come looking for him, and so he prepared to go to the floating peak's front mountain to cultivate by himself. However, he didn't expect that the moment he stepped out of the door, Li Shuang’er would already unknowingly walk over, and she mischievously patted him from behind.
"Junior apprentice-brother."
Li Shuang’er laughed and called out.
Luo Hao had already guessed that it was her, but he didn't have a surprised expression on his face.
Li Shuang’er laughed, a pair of large eyes flickered, looking at her face, it was extremely beautiful.
"Master told me to go to the zenith to look for the Thorny Mausoleum Grass and the Heartless Leaf, so I came to ask you to come with me."
"What does Uncle-Master want to do with the Mausoleum of Books and the Heartless Leaf?"
Luo Hao asked in confusion.
"The Agarwood Grass and Thoughtless Leaf are very rare spiritual herbs and are the main ingredients to concoct the Three Ultimate Pills. It is likely that Master wants to concoct the Three Ultimate Pills!"
Wang Zhi had only asked Li Shuang’er to go to the zenith to search for the spirit medicine, and he had not told her what he wanted, so he made a guess.
Luo Hao: "Oh."
He then asked in surprise, "Martial Uncle knows how to refine pills?"
Li Shuang’er cut.
He continued, "It's not only Elder Sun De who can refine alchemy in Solitary Howling Sect, master's alchemy is also very powerful."
Li Shuang’er's tone of voice was filled with pride, as if her master was a legend in her eyes, and she was extremely respectful to him.
Luo Hao was startled, then cried out loud. The zenith was also a part of the Hua Li Mountain Range, located north of the Solitary Howling Sect, and not far from there. There were many ferocious beasts and poisonous bugs inside the zenith, making it a common training ground for the A disciple of the Solitary Whistle Sect, but compared to the frightening Wuliang Mountain, it was not worth mentioning.
Compared to the floating peak, this mountain took up a much wider space. The entire mountain was covered in forest and bushes, and it was lush and verdant at first glance. Some of the trees were tens of millions of years old, and each was like a giant green canopy.
"Senior sister, do you come to zenith often?"
Luo Hao asked from the back.
"I've only been here once."
"…"
Along the way, Li Shuang’er always brought Luo Hao in front of them, as if he was extremely familiar with this zenith. That was why Luo Hao asked this question, but in the end, Li Shuang’er's answer made Luo Hao speechless.
"Aiya! Youngest junior brother, follow me! Are you afraid of getting lost?"
Li Shuang’er pouted.
"Senior Sister, do you know what the unintentional leaf and the Mausoleum of Books look like?"
"I've read about it in ancient books, but I've forgotten about it."
Li Shuang’er replied disapprovingly.
"…"
"Aiya, although I don't remember it clearly, I can still recognize it if I see it."
After the two of them walked for more than an hour, sweat started to appear on Li Shuang’er's face. She turned around and ordered Luo Hao, "When you enter the zenith later, you must follow me closely.
Luo Hao said with a face full of black lines, "I'm not a child …"
After hearing this, Li Shuang’er immediately burst out laughing, and spoke in an aged voice: "In front of Senior Sister, you are just a child."
"…"
Luo Hao's face was filled with black lines as he thought to himself, You're clearly younger than me, but you have to always act as if you're more sensible than me.
Looking at Li Shuang’er's innocent face, Luo Hao felt extremely helpless. He decided to just keep quiet, but all the way, Li Shuang’er kept muttering nonstop, as if he had endless things to say.
After walking for a while, they finally entered the zenith.
"What a big tree!"
Li Shuang’er sighed as he looked at the towering tree in front of him, which was completely black, with rough skin and a straight trunk that was as thick as three people hugging each other.
"This should be the Black-Striped Skytree that Master was talking about."
"Black-striped Heavenly Tree?"
Luo Hao followed Li Shuang’er's gaze and looked over. He was also shocked by the size of this tree, but he had never seen it before so he asked.
"That's right! Master said that there is a Black Striped Heavenly Fir in the zenith. After it grows for tens of thousands of years, it will form a Black striped Heavenly Steel that is even tougher than Astral Steel. This Black Striped Heavenly Steel is a treasure that would even move the heart of experts in Soul-Breaking Realm.
Li Shuang’er told the ignorant Luo Hao about the Black Striped Tian Shan.
At this time, Luo Hao was a little impressed by this senior sister who was usually playful and playful, but now, she was actually a knowledgeable and knowledgeable person.
Standing under the huge Black Striped Tree, Luo Hao felt like he was a frog in the well.
"As expected of the Solitary Howling Sect. Even though it can't compare to the great sects of the Earthly Paradise, its heritage is still so deep."
Luo Hao praised in a low voice.
As she said that, Li Shuang’er casually picked up a thin branch beside her. Along the way, she playfully brandished the branch in her hand and waved it around, causing weeds and shrubs to flutter as the zenith was blocked by the huge tree, making it hard for sunlight to shine through. Because of the year-long accumulation of rain, the inside of the tree was extremely moist, and moss was scattered everywhere.
Luo Hao and Li Shuang’er walked carefully, their shoes were already stained with black soil, both of them felt as though they had entered a dark primal forest.
As they slowly went deeper into the cave, they heard a rustling sound in their ears. The sound of the wind rustling the leaves mixed with the chirping of the insects. It wasn't as pleasant as it usually was.
Although Li Shuang’er claimed that she was brave, she was still startled by the Insect Beasts that occasionally jumped out. She immediately retreated and tightly grabbed the corner of Luo Hao's clothes, as if she was grabbing onto her life saving straw.
Although the zenith was relatively barbaric, because there were often A disciple of the Solitary Whistle Sect that came to train, there were more people who walked.
However, the spirit energy in zenith was plentiful, the trees and shrubs grew extremely fast, and the road that they were on was overgrown with weeds.
Therefore, Luo Hao walked in front and swept away the weeds that obstructed the middle of the road.
Therefore, she became much quieter than before, and obediently followed behind Luo Hao. Right now, she was like a completely different person compared to Li Shuang’er who had threatened to lead the way, and without the elegant demeanor of a young miss of the floating peak, who would believe that a A disciple of the Solitary Whistle Sect of such a high cultivation level would actually be afraid of a snake?
"When will we be able to find the Mausoleum of Books and the Heartless Grass?!"
Luo Hao did not say anything, but Li Shuang’er started to complain first.
"I think we should head back as soon as possible."
Luo Hao joked.
"How can we do that? If we go back empty-handed, we'll definitely be scolded by Master."
"But you don't even remember what the unintentional leaves look like. How are we supposed to find them in the wilderness?"
Luo Hao was a little speechless.
"I remember that in the ancient books, it was recorded that the mausoleum grass grew under dead trees, and as for the Heartless Leaf, it usually grew on the edge of an extremely cold and wet swamp."
"Are you sure?"
With Li Shuang’er's usually carefree personality, Luo Hao was a little doubtful of her words.
"Of course, who do you think you are!"
"…"
Luo Hao went to find dead trees and swamps according to Li Shuang’er's words, but in zenith which was overflowing with the spirit energy of heaven and earth, there were no dead trees. All the life forms flourished extremely well under the nourishment of the spirit energy of heaven and earth, so the two of them searched for a long time, but didn't find any dead trees.
As for the swamps, there were quite a few. Along the way, he had seen three swamps, but he didn't see any Heartless Leaf growing there.
Although he did not find the Thorny Mausoleum Grass and Heartless Leaf, there were still quite a few strange flowers and fruits in zenith. For example, Li Shuang’er had just picked a fruit from a yellow vine, it was completely red and had a few thorns on its surface. The two of them did not know what these fruits were, but they had picked a few out of curiosity.
Li Shuang’er placed the red fruit into his storage ring, and revealed a satisfied smile on his face. He said: "Looks like today's harvests are not bad, I just don't know if I can eat this fruit."
"Then Senior Sister should try it first!"
Luo Hao joked.
"Scram!"
Li Shuang’er pretended to be angry: What if there's poison? You want to poison me to death! "
Luo Hao did not deny it and laughed helplessly.
"Senior Sister, look!"
Suddenly, Luo Hao shouted as he pointed ahead.
"What are you doing?"
Li Shuang’er turned around snappily and looked in the direction where Luo Hao was gesturing.
"There's actually a dead tree!"
Li Shuang’er said in shock.
After she finished speaking, Li Shuang’er actually ignored Luo Hao who was beside her, and directly ran over by herself. After walking to the side of the dead tree, she suddenly thought of Luo Hao who was behind her, and shouted at Luo Hao: "Junior Brother, come over here quickly."
As he said that, Li Shuang’er looked around for the Thorny Grass, and Luo Hao followed him to look for one.
The dead tree was huge, lying across the ground. The tree had been eroded until there were holes in it. In the middle, a part of it had been eaten away by insects and beasts.
Li Shuang’er circled around the huge dead tree and ran over, but he still did not find any mausoleum.
"Senior, quickly come look! Is this the Mausoleum of Books?"
Luo Hao suddenly asked.
Hearing that, Li Shuang’er immediately ran over from the other side. She grabbed a stalk of herb in Luo Hao's hand and carefully examined it.
The root of the herb was yellowish, and its upper neck was completely green. Its oily green leaves looked very lively.
"That's right, that's right. This is the Mausoleum of Books."
Li Shuang’er was so happy that she almost jumped up. She patted Luo Hao's shoulder and said in an aged voice, "Junior Brother, you did well."
Luo Hao shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and laughed without a hint of modesty: "Of course, why don't you see who I am."
