Chapter 269: Stillness Is Power

nt to give me this key"The swordsman said faintly, "The key was given to you because of your senior sister!"The sword master's reply finally acknowledged that there was indeed a relationship between h...As long as the formation is broken and you successfully exit the Thousand Medicine Array, although you will still be within the inheritance ground, you can see the competition between other disciples just like the spectators.

After Guan Yiming deployed, he began searching for Jiang Yun's location.

Because Ginger Cloud actually dared to say in front of so many people that his character was too bad, after the grand competition ended, he had to give him a lesson.

However, before he could find Jiangyun, he saw someone breaking out of the formation behind him. This naturally drew his gaze to this person.

At first glance, a hint of surprise appeared on his face!

Standing beside him was none other than Xiao Zheng!

He never would have expected that, just moments ago, he had mocked Xiao Zheng for still being a third-rank officer after five years, and yet now, in identifying medicinal herbs, Xiao Zheng was only slightly slower than himself.

But soon, the surprise on Guan Yiming's face was replaced by indifference once again, and he let out a dismissive snort.

After all, this is the first round, and it only tests the basics of pharmacology. There are several rounds to come.

Especially the last round is the true test of a pharmacologist's skill.

This first round victory doesn't prove anything.

No matter how one puts it, Xiao Zheng's performance of following Guan Yiming and breaking through the formation was also shocking to many onlookers.

Even Mei Bu Gu opened her eyes, a rare glimmer of satisfaction flashing in them.

While Yang Shichong's face, in comparison to hers, turned rather ugly.

Because his disciple, Li Changlin, has not yet been able to identify at least thirty more medicinal herbs.

He originally thought that Li Changlin and Xiao Zheng were not too far apart in the way of medicine, but he didn't expect that the gap had become so large.

With no other choice, Yang Shizhong could only console himself by saying, "At least I made preparations in advance!"

After marching out, Xiao Zheng completely ignored Guan Yiming beside him. Instead, he was also searching for Xie Xiaoyong and Jiang Yun among the disciples present.

Soon, he found Xie Xiaoyong.

Xie Xiaoyong's identification speed is not fast, but it's definitely not slow.

Among everyone, they could be ranked in the top tier. Having cleared this first round, there shouldn't be any problems.

However, when Xiao Zheng’s gaze fell on the motionless Jiang Yun, his expression instantly became strange: “This, Brother Jiang, could it be that you’re still deliberately concealing your abilities”

Or, could it be that he's merely adept at manipulating spiritual energy and alchemy, but hasn't delved deeply into the intricacies of herbs

Xiao had seen Ginger Cloud's control over spiritual energy and heard that Ginger Cloud had refined pills of the Heavenly Rank.

But I'm still unsure if Jiang Yun ever took the time to memorize herbs, which is why he might have this idea.

And this was not just his wild imagination, because this was not about basic pharmacists. Not only did they exist, but there were quite a few of them as well.

These alchemists, they are unwilling to spend time memorizing the characteristics of various herbs.

Just like many cultivators, they are unwilling to spend time practicing their control over spiritual energy when they are at the Meridian Opening stage.

Because anyway, when refining medicine, as long as the required medicinal materials are prepared according to the formula and familiarized in advance, you can also successfully refine the elixir.

This way, Xiao Zheng naturally began to worry secretly for Jiang Yun.

If even this first round can't be passed, then no matter how strong Jiang Yun is in other aspects, it's useless.

But now, even if he was anxious, he was helpless. He could only hope that his guess was wrong and that Jiang Yun could quickly break the Thousand Medicine Array.

As time gradually passed, although more and more disciples had successfully broken through the formations, compared to the number of participants in the grand competition, they were still a small minority.

Li Changlin and Xie Xiaoyun also came out one after another, and when they saw Jiang Yun, they couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

Xie Xiaoyong immediately looked at Xiao Zheng, who smiled helplessly at her and shook his head.

Li Changlin was startled at first, but then his face broke into a smile. He didn't forget to introduce Jiang Yun's identity and background to the disciples around him who, like him, had broken through the formation.

When Elder Han previously explained Yun's identity, they had already entered this place of inheritance, so they basically didn't know Yun at all. He wasn't their fellow disciple.

Now that they had heard Li Changlin's introduction and learned about Ginger Cloud's identity, these people naturally reacted in different ways.

There are those who are compassionate, those who are sarcastic, and those who are doubtful.

Of course, there was also Guan Yiming, who looked down upon Jiang Yun with contempt before turning his gaze away and choosing to ignore him directly.

This kind of superficial, non-medical cultivator is not worthy of his attention.

As the incense burned down to about one-tenth, roughly two thousand disciples had successfully broken through the formation and passed the first round.

The remaining five or six thousand disciples were still trapped within the formation.

Not only is the time left for them dwindling, but their hearts are becoming increasingly chaotic as well.

Almost everyone will occasionally look up and glance at the increasingly short incense above their head.

This also means that these 5,000 or so people have a high probability of being eliminated in the first round.

And among them, there is Ginger Cloud as well!

However, Ginger Cloud's heart remained calm.

Because until now, he still maintains a static posture, holding that first kind of medicinal herb.

"So this is what you call talent What a joke!"

Just now I thought, this Ginger Cloud wouldn't be able to pass the first round, but at least he should have been able to identify dozens of herbs! But unexpectedly, he couldn't identify even one.

"He was previously mocking Guan senior brother's character, Humph, I think he doesn't know what he's talking about. He clearly has no understanding of the way of medicine, yet he pretends to be talented. It is truly his character that is too bad!"

Most of the disciples, both those watching and those who had successfully broken through the formation, jeered and mocked Jiang Yun without restraint.

However, there are also some people who have doubts in their hearts.

Even if Ginger Cloud couldn't recognize the first kind of medicinal herb, there was no need to cling to it so stubbornly!

He still has thousands of herbs around him; he could completely choose other herbs to identify.

Thousands of herbs, you can't possibly not know even one, right

After all, even among those disciples who succeeded in breaking through the ranks, not everyone could identify every single type. There would always be some they didn't recognize.

With this question, including Xiao Zheng and Xie Xiaoyong, as well as five Tian Yaoshi and Elder Han,

Therefore, the strange looks in their eyes as they stared at Jiang Yun made it clear that none of them could tell what he was doing at this moment.

Just then, Jiang Yun, who had always been standing there like a statue, suddenly moved!

A long breath escaped his lips, and a smile appeared on his face. Within that smile, there seemed to be an understanding, a joy.

The appearance of a smile on Jiang Yun's face naturally drew everyone's attention. Countless pairs of eyes were all focused on him at that moment.

Everyone wants to see what this ginger cloud, who they almost unanimously believe knows nothing about medicine and is completely incapable of passing the first round of the competition, can possibly do in the remaining less than one-tenth of the time!

Even Mei Bu Gu, opened her eyes once more, her gaze fixed directly on Jiang Yun.

Most of the eyes staring at me were filled with scorn and derision, while only a small minority held a curious gaze.

But there was one man, his eyes full of expectation!

This man, is Xiao Zheng!

Of the over 30,000 people in the Yaoshén Sect, he was the only one who always believed in his view of Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun's attainment in the Dao of Medicine was absolutely extraordinary!

He believes that when ginger clouds remain still, they are nothing special; but once they move, they will surely be astonishing!
