Chapter 48: No one can collect herbs better than me!
Ding!
A sound of chime rang out in the secret realm.
Everyone’s eyes blurred as they reappeared in an empty area.
Some of them were still maintaining their combat stance. Clearly, they were taken while fighting with the demon beasts.
At this moment, ripples appeared in the sky, and imposing words appeared once more.
【The end of the first trial……】
【Eight people advanced, one died, one eliminated.】
“A single person died?” Li Ran’s brows jumped.
The ones who entered this secret realm were all sect geniuses. All of them had profound cultivation bases and countless trump cards.
The demon beasts here weren’t strong enough to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm. Even if they weren’t able to defeat them, they would definitely be able to safely escape.
Unless… Someone had attacked!
Li Ran glanced at Song Qingsong, only to see blood on the hem of his clothes as if he had been injured.
He instantly understood. The murderer must be Song Qingsong.
He was afraid that he would not have enough time to advance, so he chose to snatch the spoils of war from others.
“This guy is really ruthless.”
Yue Jianli also looked at Li Ran from afar.
Clearly, the two of them had thought of going together. Then, beams of white light shot out, enveloping everyone.
The eight people enveloped by the white light gradually dispersed and headed towards the second round of the trial.
As for the remaining person, he was sent out of the secret realm with an annoyed expression.
—
When everyone opened their eyes, they were already in a new world. In front of them was a lush little mountain. The mountain was filled with numerous immortal herbs and spiritual plants, and their grades were several times higher than before.

“Heavens!”
“Such rich Qi? It’s simply better than a Qi Gathering Formation!”
“The ground is full of Immortal Herbs! Is the entire lawn made up of Immortal Herbs?”
“This is too shocking! As expected of an Ancient Emperor’s inheritance!”
The geniuses let out waves of exclamations, like children who had never seen the world.
Compared to this place, the place just now was like a small Magus. Even if they couldn’t obtain the final inheritance and harvest the immortal herbs, their trip was already worth it!
The air trembled once more.
【Second Trial: Herb Picking】
The contents of this trial were very simple.
Everyone had to collect the herbs from the Herb Mountain in front of them. The time limit was two hours.
Finally, according to each person’s herb quality, six people will be selected for the next trial.
Compared to the previous round, this trial looked much more peaceful. Everyone seemed to be focused on collecting medicine.
Of course, the number of immortal herbs was limited, so conflict would definitely arise.
【The trial starts now…】
Following the order, everyone could not wait to enter the mountain.
Li Ran and the other two entered the mountain as well.
Collecting herbs was a skill itself.
First of all, the precious immortal herbs might not be the most eye-catching ones. The method to distinguish them from each other was a problem.
Secondly, the picking method was also very important. If the method wasn’t correct, it might even destroy the medicinal effects and leak out the immortal qi.
Li Ran knew nothing about this topic, but he wasn’t worried at all.
“Although I cannot pick herbs, I’m good at robbing. I can go rob others later.”
After making up his mind, he leisurely strolled around Herb Mountain.
As for Xiao Qingge, she followed beside him, carefully searching for traces of the Spirit Fruit.

After the time of a burning incense stick, Li Ran stretched out.
“You can take your time and wander around. I’ll go collect vegetables.”
After saying that, he soared into the sky.
“Collect vegetables?” Xiao Qingge was confused.
—
Song Qingsong was walking through the Herb Mountain.
Amongst these cultivators, he was the oldest and the most experienced. Apart from cultivation, he was also involved in numerous study fields.
As for foraging herbs, it was his specialty.
“Heh, I’ve read the ‘Pill Scripture’, the ‘Herbal Scripture’, and the ‘Picking Technique’. Nobody knows how to pick herbs better than me!”
He began to search for herbs with confidence. Soon, he found some time near a stone wall.
“Thousand Year White Vine! “
“This is an immortal herb. It can be used to refine into a Soul Cleansing Pill. The pill has the effect of concentrating and purifying one’s soul!”
“Good treasure!” He carefully collected them with the most delicate techniques.
After taking two steps, his eyes lit up again.
“Extreme Yang Grass, another immortal herb!”
“This herb has the appearance of ordinary immortal grass, but the tips are slightly red. Those who don’t study the Dao of Medicine won’t be able to perceive this difference!” Song Qingsong’s smile grew brighter and brighter.
Not only was he able to advance steadily in this round, but he was also able to obtain so many treasures.
It was simply a treasure realm.
Just as he was enjoying himself, a figure appeared behind him and patted him on the shoulder.
“Who is it?!” Song Qingsong was startled. He suddenly turned around.
As soon as she saw the person who had arrived, he became nervous.
“Li Ran? Why did you come looking for me?”
Li Ran scratched his head. “I’m not good at collecting medicine.”
Song Qingsong’s brows jumped, and a bad premonition arose in his heart. “So you’re here to…”
“To rob you.” Li Ran added the latter part.
“……” Song Qingsong’s face turned pale.
“You, you can’t do this. You’re violating the rules. I am collecting the herbs with my own strength…”
Crack.
Li Ran clenched his fist, his joints cracking, his expression slightly impatient.
“I can’t collect herbs, but I can fight you. However, I’m not an unreasonable person so I’ll give you two choices.”
“Which two choices?” Song Qingsong gulped.
“First, you can take the initiative to give me the herbs.”
“What about the other one?”
“Second, I’ll beat you up, and then you’ll give me the herbs.”
“……” Song Qingsong trembled as he reluctantly handed over his storage ring.
“You’re too polite, please accept this…”

Omnipocalypse Monsters(Shelved Timeline)
System Edit: This timeline has been shelved, but the adventures of the Omegas and her kids will continue in the next System Update Timeline with additional foes and challenges early on to guide the Omegas into a less destructive path of protection.The Omnipocalypse was every apocalypse humans ever imagined all happening at once, zombies, plagues, nukes, EMPs, Robot uprisings. Not just the earth either, It happened to every World ever dreamed up by men too: heaven, hell, and every other afterlife or spirit world ended, plus the worlds of books and stories bled into reality. It all broke apart and either; became new places on the chaotic Earth or part of the even messier spirit world. Magic beasts mutated by radiation, Robots mastering Magic, the mixture of everything made the horrors... well, more horrible. Omega; A young Woman with few memories wakes to find she has spent 2500 years in stasis, in a basement of scientific horrors. Creatures and Things that could supposedly destroy the world if ever let free. Horrors of which she was the last to get free. Rather then Quest for world domination or destruction; Omega keeps getting drawn into a protective role over other orphans, lost monsters, and broken AIs. So she decides to build something to help all her little monster family be safe. -------This story is meant to be a behind the scenes look at stories about kids solving problems that should be beyond them. I always wanted to see a story about Professor Oak, Dumbledore, or any other mentor who trains the main characters. I like the idea of someone looking at the apocalyptic world and deciding to make it safe enough that a small child can wander off and make some monster their pet. The pokemon games have fun systems to consider the behind the scenes workings of, like what training a team rocket member goes through to become a villain cut out for children to defeat. how they prevent a deific pokemon from accidentally murdering some little rat with its immense psionic power. However, the story itself is not really meant to be a pokemon parody, I draw inspiration from every genre of fiction, any type of game, this story is the only one I plan of ever writing without a clear cut ending planned, I love the infinite storytelling capacity of things like Doctor who's TARDIS, the Stargate or Rick's portal gun. In this case, I wanted the setting itself to be one where any and every story might happen. Cover Image by kalli gruen from Pixabay Discord Image by Digital Photo and Design DigiPD.com from Pixabay

Artifex
In a world where art has power and power is everything, Thando Nkhosi is an MMA fighter trying to stand out and be somebody. At least, as much as one can among 23 billion other people. Life is generally good under the [High King]. That is, until he and his friends are catapulted into the upper echelons of the Inner Planet Federation by being granted a power that may be a bit too much for them to handle, and given a task that seems impossible. Trying my hand at a hopefully unique LitRPG system. No stats or number crunching though. Kinda scifi, kinda fantasy but scifi elements only really become plot relevant after the first arc. Won't be doom and gloom but will get really dark at times. Updates twice a week at minimum (2-3k words), sometimes more when school decides to let me out of the pillory lol. Inspired by a writing prompt on reddit and WarHammer 40k orks.
