The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 1512

They stopped when they saw in front of them the endless hectares of primeval forests. Towering ancient trees obscured the sunlight from above, making the Wild Herb Valley similar to some place from the archaic civilization.

It was filled with spiritual energy, spiraling around the vegetation.

The entrance was unkempt. The vines, thorns, and wild plants surrounded it, making it seemed like a secluded area which had not been visited by any human for thousands of years.

While Austin was marveling at the spectacular sight of the entrance, other disciples from different sect had already marched into the forest. They cut the wild vines in their way.

Austin reckoned that there were about a total eight thousand warriors who came to this valley with them.

After entering the forest, all the warriors gathered together with their sect members. It was obvious that they were keeping the distance from other sects. Tension from different sect weren't avoided, and they stared at each other, all alert.

Under the leadership of a disciple called Rahul, there were about fifty members from the Flame Holy Land who also kept a certain distance from other sect. This was their way to avoid being raided.

There was a flare-up of tension between different sects.

''Everyone, may I have your attention, please?'' a voice said.

Just at this moment, a young man in purple robe from the Arcane Holy Land spoke up. He was at his late-twenties, had a full forehead, Roman nose, and high magnitude of vital energy, which added to his sense of superiority.

He was at the premium stage of Emperor Realm.

''I believe," he started, "we are all well aware of the fact that conflicts will inevitably occur in the process of collecting herbs. That, of course, is not our intention. We have all come here to collect the precious herbs, and not to pick up a fight.

We have already discussed this problem before on behalf of the Arcane Holy Land, the Vasteras Holy Land, and the Rudimentary Holy Land.

To avoid such chaotic situation, we decided in agreement to make some rules for everyone and follow our instructions."

People were in whispers as soon as he paused.

'What rules?' they wondered.

The other disciples were also confused by his words.

''We all know here that the Wild Herb Valley can be divided into three areas: the inner areas, the middle areas, and the outer areas.

They are all separate and so are we.

So we decided, just at this moment, that different sect should collect herbs from different areas.

To be more specific, the disciples from the three holy lands will collect herbs in the inner areas of the forest.

Meanwhile, the disciples from first-rate sect and second-rate sect will collect herbs in the middle areas.

Lastly, for the other disciples, you can only collect herbs in the outer areas." People started to get confused, but he continued, "As long as we all observe this rule, we will be able to collect herbs in an orderly way and we are absolute that conflicts and causalities will be avoided."

The man from the Arcane Holy Land was slow in his tone, making sure that everyone from the vicinity could hear him. But as soon as he finished speaking, all the disciples except the members of the three holy lands burst into an uproar.

''What? That's unfair for us!''

The tension from different sects was replaced with anger and bafflement.

It was common knowledge to all that the deeper they got into the Wild Herb Valley, the more valuable and unusual herbs they would find.

They were sure that the inner areas are full of valuable herbs compared with the middle and the outer areas.

Majority of the herbs in the inner areas are priceless and inestimable.

However, it was obvious that the three holy lands were plotting to take possession of all the valuable herbs under the veil of this 'so-called rule' they had announced.

Their actual greedy intention was obvious and the other disciples were not willing to accept such rule.

All the disciples from different sect had one thing in their minds - that they could march to the Wild Herb Valley with the expectation to collect valuable herbs in the inner areas fairly.

Everyone was dissatisfied except the disciples from the three holy lands. Of course, they should be angered. The three holy lands were only thinking for themselves. It was unfair because this rule catered only the powerful. They discussed in whisper to show their indignation.

''Hey!" Finally, a young man in the crowd, not part of the disciples from the three holy lands, refuted. "We will choose which area we'll be collecting by ourselves here in Wild Herb Valley. The harvests of all sect largely depends on one's fortune and ability, not by privileges.

Before we came here, there has never been such a rule that only the disciples of the three holy lands can enter the inner areas.

We do not agree with you. It is unfair!"

The young man looked genial and knowledgeable with a white jade fan in his right hand.
