I, the one in the heavens, am here to protect my bottom line in all realms.

Chapter 269 Jiuyang Mountain Dungeon

Without giving them any chance to breathe, the snake opened its bloody mouth and pounced towards them.

Xu Yuankai stepped forward and swung his sword at the spirit snake, but the snake nimbly twisted its body to avoid the attack and turned to attack An Zhiyu.

An Zhiyu was not afraid at all. She drew her bow and shot an arrow, which flew straight towards the spirit snake.

Jiang Siyou took the opportunity to attack the snake from the side to distract its attention.

The three men engaged in a fierce fight with the spirit snake. The spirit snake kept launching fierce attacks. The three men cooperated closely and gradually gained the upper hand.

Finally, Xu Yuankai found an opportunity and stabbed the spirit snake in the vitals with a sword. The spirit snake struggled for a few times and then collapsed to the ground.

Jiang Siyou said excitedly: "It's done."

They carefully took out the snake gall and left the Snake Valley with the joy of victory.

Zhang Chengyuan waved her hand to restore the data of Lingshe Valley and left as well. She had to rush to the next scene.

When she went out, the three of them had already entered the Jiuyang Mountain dungeon. She hurried over and just saw them entering Jiuyang Mountain.

Jiuyang Mountain rises high into the clouds, with steep cliffs and jagged rocks, like a gigantic fortress built of huge stones.

At the foot of the mountain, there was steam rising from the ground. The higher you went up the mountain, the higher the temperature became, and the air around you became scalding hot, as if it could evaporate all the moisture in an instant.

Xu Yuankai wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "This Jiuyang Mountain is indeed as famous as it is said to be. It is so hot and unbearable."

An Zhiyu panted and echoed: "Yeah, I'm almost melting from the heat."

Jiang Siyou looked up at the endless mountain with a firm gaze: "We are just short of the Nine Yang Wood Roots. Let's hold on a little longer."

The three of them climbed up the rugged mountain road with difficulty. The stones under their feet were burned hot, and every step they took felt like stepping on hot coals.

There is little vegetation around, with only some tenacious drought-resistant plants growing with difficulty in the cracks of the rocks.

When we reached halfway up the mountain, a sudden heat wave hit us, making it almost impossible to breathe.

An Zhiyu said vigilantly: "I have a bad feeling, there may be danger, please be careful."

Before he finished his words, several huge fire lizards emerged from the cracks in the rocks. The scales on their bodies flashed red and flames spewed from their mouths.

The three of them quickly dispersed and started a fierce battle with the Salamander.

Jiang Siyou nimbly dodged the fire lizards' attacks while looking for their weaknesses.

An Zhiyu kept shooting arrows, trying to distract the fire lizard.

Wishing Kai, with his superb swordsmanship, faced off against the Salamander head-on.

After a hard fight, they finally repelled the salamander, but they were also seriously injured.

They all turned their eyes to Jiang Siyou, expecting him to come up with some useful pills.

Unfortunately, that didn't happen. Jiang Siyou was lying on the ground with wounds all over his body, motionless. Zhang Chengyuan naturally wouldn't let them log off and start over. She didn't have that much time to waste with them. There was nothing useful in this world anymore. She had to accompany Jiang Siyou to finish the plot as soon as possible so that she could leave.

She pointed a few times in the air and added some data. Jiang Siyou soon received a prompt from the system that there were herbs nearby. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain, crawling up to find the herbs mentioned in the prompt.

After finding it, he couldn't help but feel happy, as it would be useful for their injuries, so he quickly prepared it into pills, giving each person one, and their injuries recovered quickly.

The three continued to climb up and finally arrived at the place where the Nine Yang Wood Root was located. In a huge cave, a Nine Yang Wood Root emitting a strange light grew on a huge rock. However, around the Nine Yang Wood Root, there was a layer of blazing flames, making it impossible to get close.

An Zhiyu asked anxiously: "What should I do?"

Jiang Siyou pondered for a moment and said, "Let's look around to see if there is anything that can put out the fire first."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuankai and An Zhiyu separated and looked around. Soon they found a spring in the cave. They dipped their clothes in water and tried to put out the fire.

After many attempts, the flames finally died down.

Jiang Siyou carefully approached the root of the Nine Yang tree and successfully picked it.

The three of them were very excited and hurried down the mountain with the Nine Yang Wood Root.

After finally getting the three main herbs, they returned to the City Lord's Mansion, said goodbye to the City Lord, and rushed back to the village to find Zhang Chengyuan and give the medicine to her.

She took the medicine and said with gratitude: "Thank you three heroes, you have worked hard."

As soon as they finished speaking, they received a reward prompt from the system: Congratulations on completing an important task and gaining the gratitude of Liluo Village. Wearing this achievement can gain a 5% experience bonus.

After Zhang Chengyuan finished speaking, he turned around and went back to prepare the medicinal materials and make pills.

After distributing the pills to all the sick villagers, she smiled with satisfaction and said to the three people who helped her, "This time it's all thanks to the three heroes.

I have some relics left by my father here, and I am just putting them here, so why not give them to the three heroes? My father will be very happy if he knows about it in the afterlife."

She moved out a half-large box and placed it in Jiang Siyou's hand, looking at him with affection.

Jiang Siyou understood what she meant. He felt very disappointed, but he had to appear happy on the surface.

Seeing this, Zhang Chengyuan took advantage of An Zhiyu and the others not paying attention and squeezed his hand to comfort him.

Jiang Siyou closed his eyes and adjusted his mentality. He put the box on the table and opened it. The other two came over to take a look and couldn't help but sigh: "This reward is so generous."

Zhang Chengyuan spared no effort to help Jiang Siyou complete the task. This box contained not only experience books but also skill books and experience balls, which were enough to offset their efforts for ten days or half a month.

According to the plot she secretly collected from the Rules of Heaven, the plot of this world is mainly completed around a holographic game. Now they have chosen their own holographic game, which means they will take two years to completely complete the game.

But she didn't want to wait that long, so she was now shortening the time they spent gaining experience and speeding up the completion of their storyline.

Of course, the plot of the herbalist was added by her, but she gave experience according to the rules and did not violate any regulations, so naturally the rules of heaven would not detect anything wrong.

The two men were very surprised and used it immediately. They also urged Jiang Siyou to hurry up.

When their levels were raised to around level 23, Zhang Chengyuan spoke again. At the same time, the system prompted that the last part of the herbalist mission had begun. Do you want to accept it?

Jiang Siyou and the others would naturally not give up, and then they heard Zhang Chengyuan say: "I wonder if you are willing to do something for me?"

Jiang Siyou looked at Zhang Chengyuan affectionately and said, "Of course I am willing."

Zhang Chengyuan's eyes were red and tears welled up in them: "My father was murdered by a traitor and I have not yet avenged him.

I know that the man in black has always wanted a treasure in my house. Perhaps we can use this treasure to lure out the mastermind and avenge my father.

But this journey will be full of dangers, I wonder if any of you are willing to help?"

Although Jiang Siyou knew that she was pretending, he still felt distressed. He responded without hesitation: "Don't worry, young lady. Since you have agreed to this matter, we will definitely do our best."
