Chapter 13 Entering Xuanyuan Forbidden Land

At this moment, the present elite guards and their commander still wore expressions of disbelief.

That was Xuanyuan Forbidden Land, a terrifying forbidden place that had existed for countless millennia.

Even supreme emperors could not enter it.

For tens of thousands of years, countless strong individuals had researched ways to enter it, all ending in failure.

But now, carrying a ladder allowed entry?

Isn’t that too simple?

Jin Li's voice was icy: “This matter must not be leaked!”

“We swear on our lives that this matter will not be revealed to a second person!” The elite guards present knew the importance of the matter.

The commander of the guards was excited: “This is heaven's blessing for our emperor! Once we master the method of entering Xuanyuan Forbidden Land, we can send people inside and surely gather many spiritual herbs from the periphery!”

Xuanyuan Forbidden Land had not been entered by any living being for at least ten thousand years; there must be many spiritual herbs inside.

The depths of Xuanyuan Forbidden Land were still beyond their current strength to explore, but the periphery surely had plenty of spiritual herbs and fewer fierce beasts.

The guard commander was about to enter carrying a ladder.

Even in just the periphery, she had already seen several extremely precious spiritual herbs.

Jin Li's face remained cold, revealing no hint of her inner excitement.

She had a ladder beside her but had not carried it yet, needing further verification.

“Do not act rashly for now; let’s observe a bit more.”

The death row inmates were all extremely wicked individuals.

At this moment, the three carrying ladders entered Xuanyuan Forbidden Land.

Their faces showed shock and fear.

One man, seeing a spiritual herb, displayed greed.

He immediately plucked it and stuffed it into his stomach.

Outside, there were powerful elite guards.

To survive, eating spiritual herbs was the only chance.

As for escape?

Their current speed was about the same as ordinary people.

With the elite guards watching them, how could they escape?

Eating the spiritual herbs was their only possible chance for survival.

Seeing the death row inmates eating the spiritual herbs, the guard commander was extremely anxious.

Even she would not dare eat those herbs so casually.

But the death row inmates were gobbling them down!

Empress Jin Li remained calm and silent, watching inside the Xuanyuan Forbidden Land.

Seeing this, the guard commander could only stay put, feeling a deep heartache.

It hurt more than having three ounces of flesh cut from her chest.

At this moment, Empress Jin Li’s pupils contracted.

The elite guards also sensed something, becoming alert.

A roar resounded, and a giant blue-eyed, white-furred beast appeared, a full ten feet tall.

Its footfalls broke trees and crushed objects, sending wood chips flying.

The beast was only a few hundred meters from the three prisoners.

For such a fierce beast, a few hundred meters was a matter of moments.

“Blue Gang Tiger!” The guard commander’s face was solemn, “A terrifying beast at the demon king level!”

She was a king-level powerhouse, on par with the Blue Gang Tiger.

But in actual combat, she was no match for the Blue Gang Tiger.

The Blue Gang Tiger was naturally bloodthirsty; the three prisoners were doomed.

With the Blue Gang Tiger present, they couldn’t enter the periphery of Xuanyuan Forbidden Land without conflict.

Seeing the Blue Gang Tiger, two prisoners dropped their ladders and ran frantically.

One was so scared his legs gave out, clinging to his ladder and unable to move.

“Roar!”

The Blue Gang Tiger roared, spitting a blast of energy at the two fleeing prisoners.

Their bodies stiffened, fell, and were torn to pieces, blood and flesh splattered.

The remaining prisoner, clinging to his ladder, wet himself in fear.

The Blue Gang Tiger glanced at him, its eyes showing a strange look of contemplation or reverence.

Then, it walked away.

The guard commander was stunned.

The other guards were also shocked.

Why did the Blue Gang Tiger leave?

Wasn’t it bloodthirsty by nature?

Wouldn’t it attack any humans entering?

Empress Jin Li’s eyes showed a complex expression.

Carrying a ladder allowed entry into Xuanyuan Forbidden Land, unhindered.

Qi Yuan had not lied.

Qi Yuan was telling the truth.

Qi Yuan… who are you?

Jin Li felt confused, and a hint of inferiority crept into her heart.

But she quickly discarded that feeling: “Everyone, carry your ladders and follow me inside.

Remember, even if you encounter fierce beasts, do not let go of your ladders, understand?”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

The guards complied.

The guard commander advised: “Your Majesty, you are of noble status; you shouldn’t venture into such a dangerous place. Let us go in while you wait here.”

Empress Jin Li thought of Qi Yuan.

If she didn’t go in, she would be betraying Qi Yuan’s trust.

“It’s fine, I’ll go with you.” Empress Jin Li’s words were unquestionable.

The group, carrying their ladders, entered Xuanyuan Forbidden Land.

They also dealt with the remaining prisoner.

“So many spiritual herbs!”

“That’s Three Flower Fragrance!”

“Xuan Yu Grass!”

“Green Fruit!”

The elite guards were ecstatic at the abundance of spiritual herbs in the periphery of Xuanyuan Forbidden Land.

The place had been untouched for ten thousand years.

The spiritual herbs here were beyond imagination.

Unlike other forbidden lands, where the periphery’s spiritual herbs had long been harvested by strong individuals, leaving only the dangerous depths.

But now, they were reaping a rich harvest in the periphery of Xuanyuan Forbidden Land.

“In just one hour, we’ve already harvested twenty-three king-grade spiritual herbs.” Jin Li couldn’t help but sigh.

King-grade spiritual herbs, even for Empress Jin Li of the Nangan Kingdom, she had consumed less than ten in her life.

And here, in such a short time, they had gathered twenty-three.

There were even more spiritual herbs of other grades.

This short harvest alone was worth more than the annual revenue of the national treasury.

The guard commander’s face glowed: “With so many spiritual herbs, we can produce numerous strong individuals and attract many experts to serve us!”

Jin Li was also pleased.

She remembered Qi Yuan saying he had cleared Xuanyuan Forbidden Land, yes, cleared.

Thinking of something, she said: “We need to go deeper into Xuanyuan Forbidden Land to harvest emperor-grade spiritual herbs, especially the Nine Flower Celestial.”

Jin Li wanted to go deeper, indeed, to harvest the Nine Flower Celestial.

But there was another reason.

The nearby guards’ faces changed slightly.

Xuanyuan Forbidden Land’s depths had emperor-grade spiritual herbs but also emperor-level fierce beasts.

If they encountered a king-level fierce beast, they could still escape.

But encountering an emperor-level fierce beast meant almost certain death.

They gripped their ladders more tightly.

Wondering if the ladders would still be effective.

“We will go with Your Majesty!”

“Good.” Jin Li nodded.

To turn the tables, the twenty-odd king-grade spiritual herbs were far from enough.

She needed the Nine Flower Celestial to heal Aunt Qin’s injuries and even help Aunt Qin advance.

She also needed to gather other emperor-grade spiritual herbs.

Of course, she also wanted to see the depths of Xuanyuan Forbidden Land, where Qi Yuan had stayed for half a year.

The group of beauties, carrying ladders, cautiously walked through Xuanyuan Forbidden Land.

Whenever they encountered fierce beasts, whether strong, weak, fierce, or gentle, the beasts ignored them, even avoiding harming them.

This scene amazed the guard commander: “Carrying ladders allows us to enter Xuanyuan Forbidden Land without the beasts attacking us. This is truly incredible.”

After speaking, she added: “Who is the remarkable person who told this method to Your Majesty?”

The others also looked at Jin Li, full of curiosity.

It must be a supreme emperor, right?
