"That's not a flood dragon, it's just a Shadow Snake."

Looking at Jiang Changqiu's frightened expression, Ye Qing shook his head.

"A true Flood Dragon is able to call the wind and summon the rain. "If the Shadow Snakes want to cultivate to the Flood Dragon's Realm, they would need at least five hundred years to get to the Yin Dragon Pool, even if they occupied it and didn't run out of Yin Dragon Pool."

"Master Ye, you know it?" Jiang Changqiu was stunned.

"Of course I do." Ye Qing smiled disdainfully, "A mere Shadow Snake was able to scare you to this extent."

From Jiang Changqiu's description, the Shadow Snake was able to spit out aura of death. It was over seventy feet long, and Ye Qing could tell that this Shadow Snake must have been a demon beast that had reached the peak of the First Order, or even the Second Order.

In the universe, the strength of the demon beasts were divided into nine levels. It corresponded to the nine great realms of Immortal cultivation, Qi Refinement, and Body Refinement.

One of the peak First Order demonic beasts was the same as a cultivator at the peak of the Yuan Vein Stage, or even the peak First Sky of the Refinement Realm.

However, in terms of battle power, demonic beasts were generally inferior to cultivators at low levels.

This was because cultivators who cultivated in immortals and devils would usually possess all kinds of godly treasures. How could the boundless might of their mantra and profound arts be comparable to demonic beasts that relied solely on their physical bodies and their innate abilities?

As for the founder of the Ghost Controlling Ghost Sect, as a Taoist master, a cultivator of the Essence Mist Realm, the reason he lost to a mere Shadow Snake was not only because of his simple and crude cultivation technique, but also because of the restraints on his mantras.

Those dark and gloomy methods of controlling ghosts would not cause any harm to the Shadow Snakes who were born with yin attribute abilities.

When all sorts of spells landed on the Shadow Snakes' bodies, it was more like they were nourishing the Shadow Snakes.

"However, sixty years ago, that Shadow Snake had at least the strength of the peak of the First Order. 'Now that it has been in the Yin Dragon Pool for sixty years, no matter how slow its progress is, it will definitely advance to the Second Order.

'And I'm only at the level of the initial level of the Yuan Meridian Stage. Even with the Green Bell Essence Ring, it would still be rather difficult for me to rely on the Azure Dragon Stamp on the ring to deal with this Rank 2 Shadow Serpent.

Thinking of this, Ye Qing couldn't help but frown.

'If I want to deal with that Shadow Snake, I'll have to break through to the later stages of the Essence Origin Stage and use a secret technique to forcefully execute a powerful Essence Mist realm spell. 'Perhaps I should find some materials and refine the Green Bell Soul Gathering Ring once more to further improve the lightning spell, Green Dragon Seal.

Thinking of this, Ye Qing decided to temporarily not go to the Yin Dragon Pool. Instead, he would first find a place to gather some materials and refine his Green Bell Soul Gathering Ring.

Thus, he looked at Jiang Changqiu and asked, "Is there any suitable place for cultivation in the Xiangzhou region? Or is there a place that sells cultivation materials? "

"A place suitable for cultivation?" "Besides the Yin Dragon Pool, I don't know where else." Jiang Changqiu shook his head.

After thinking deeply for a moment, he said, "However, in Hengyang County near the Miasma Lake County, the county city of Hengyang City, is the place where the biggest medicinal herbs in the Xiangzhou region meet."

"All sorts of medicinal herbs from the northwest will gather in the County City, then move on to Jiangnan, Jiangbei, and other places. They're all famous medicinal herbs from the Tang Clan."

"Oh?" Ye Qing's eyes could not help but light up when he heard this.

In his previous life, he had heard of the Hengyang County of the Xiangzhou region. It was a very famous transfer location for medicinal ingredients from the Northwest Highlands.

When he was in Fuzhou Prefecture, Ye Qing initially wanted to buy some good medicines for his alchemy training. However, in the end, the prefecture was still a small place.

If he could find enough hundred year old medicines, Ye Qing would have a way to quickly increase his qi refinement cultivation by a few small realms.

"Good!" We'll go to Hengyang City first. " Ye Qing decided.
