Chapter 443: Chapter 208: Seven Tier Four Spiritual Objects: Happy Troubles (2)
Secondly, it could also serve as a supplementary ingredient in many Tier Four Spirit Medicines, making it highly versatile.
Among Tier Four Spirit Grass, it was considered top-tier.
Even more fortunately, there were six stalks of Scattered Leaf Golden Light Grass preserved here, three of which were already mature.
This meant that in the future, whether Xiao Chen refined the Bright Gold Transformation Pill himself or commissioned another alchemist, he would have two chances for trial and error.
For such a special Spirit Pill, the risk of failure on the first attempt was extremely high, even with a Pill Formula to follow.
An extra chance for trial and error could lead to a completely different outcome.
The second type of Tier Four Spirit Grass was a Purple Jade Cloud Ganoderma in the bottom-right corner.
It was one of the more obscure Tier Four Spirit Grasses, almost extinct in the outside world.
Coincidentally, Xiao Chen had seen a related bounty when he was looking at the notice board in the square earlier.
It was from a Minor Sect located on the eastern side of the Nanlao Sea, called the Three Immortals Sect.
They were willing to trade a bottle of Heart Blood from a Tier Four Spirit Beast, the Traceless Deer.
The value of the two Spiritual Objects was roughly equivalent, a mutually beneficial exchange where each party gets what they need.
In the Eastern Domain, there were actually a great number of such Minor Sects and small families.
However, most of them were closely tied to a Major Sect, making them seem like a single entity to outsiders.
For example, in the Jingkong Sea, there were still a dozen or so families with different surnames in name.
But everyone knew they were merely vassals of the Three Great Clans.
.
Because the Three Immortals Sect was located in the Nanlao Sea, its situation was much better.
Although it wasn’t very famous and was nominally subservient to Hundred Herbs City, it could be considered an independent sect.
Additionally, powers like the Zhang Family of the Black Rock Sea, the Jin Family of Ten Thousand Immortals Island, and the Lotus Picking Sect of the Cloud Pool Sea also had Bounty Orders posted.
It was just that the items they sought were also quite obscure, and Xiao Chen hadn’t come across any of them.
The last type of Tier Four Spirit Grass he found was the Fixed Image Treasure Leaf.
This Spirit Grass looked almost identical to a common weed.
Fortunately, this was a Spirit Medicine Garden, and logically, anything planted here would be extraordinary.
At the same time, the author of the *Comprehensive Collection of High-Tier Spirit Herbs* had been quite practical, including lifelike illustrations.
Otherwise, even if he had encountered it in the outside world, Xiao Chen reckoned he would have had a hard time identifying it.
Strictly speaking, the Fixed Image Treasure Leaf wasn’t really a Spirit Grass, but rather a raw material.
In all the years of records from the Hundred Herbs Secret Realm, it had only appeared twice, making it the most obscure of the obscure.
It was said that a Secret Technique could be used to create Fixing Paper from it, which was then used to draw Visualization Maps.
Only a very small number of Heterodox Cultivators who practiced the Visualization Method would have a use for such a thing.
The so-called Visualization Method was rumored to be a cultivation Technique that was popular during the Ancient Times.
It was said that such cultivators could use a Visualization Map to visualize a Divine Monarch or a Divine Beast in their Sea of Consciousness, thereby gaining power.
Nowadays, it was considered a heterodox path—generally not mainstream, but a group one should not provoke under normal circumstances.
After all, followers of heterodox paths excelled at winning through surprise; many times, you wouldn’t even know how you lost.
It was also worth mentioning that because the Eastern Domain was so vast and had so many islands,
there were actually quite a few surviving heterodox Dharma Lineages, especially in some of the more remote or even isolated places.
Most Heterodox Cultivators lived within their own traditions and did not interact with the outside world.
Only a few who had achieved some success in their cultivation were qualified to travel abroad and represent their sect.
This led to the occasional Heterodox Cultivator encountered in the outside world having an incredibly high cultivation, starting at the Golden Core realm.
This created the misunderstanding that all Heterodox Cultivators were at the Golden Core realm.
’This thing seems useless to me, doesn’t it?’
Xiao Chen thought for a moment. Acting on the principle of "better safe than sorry," he plucked all the Fixed Image Treasure Leaves from the Fixing Treasure Vine. ’Whatever, I’ll take them anyway. You never know when they might come in handy.’
Besides, if he didn’t take them, the vine would eventually wither, which would be a complete waste.
Moreover, his Vast Sea Ring had plenty of space now. A single Jade Box wouldn’t take up much room, so it was no trouble to carry.
’This ring was such a bargain.’
Xiao Chen once again felt that his decision to buy a Storage Ring as his first stop in the Eastern Domain had been a perfect one.
Processing these five types of Tier Four Spirit Grass and meticulously searching the entire Spirit Medicine Garden to ensure nothing was missed took another half a day.
’It’s a shame I didn’t find any Canhe Guardian Flower, or even the Thousand Flower and Ten Thousand Leaf Vine,’ Xiao Chen thought with a slight tinge of regret. ’But with the Righteous Fruit and the extra Thousand-year-old Crying Spirit Flower, at least trading for the Nine Luminaries Profound Pill won’t be a problem.’
Then, he would be able to strengthen the quality of his True Essence.
This was important, as it not only affected his Magic Power but would also be a great help when he tried to break through his next bottleneck.
It could be said that strengthening the quality of his True Essence was a classic case of killing two birds with one stone.
Having dealt with the most precious Tier Four Spirit Grass, Xiao Chen turned his attention to the Tier Three Spirit Grass in the first two rows.
Because the first two rows were relatively intact, a large number of Spirit Grasses had survived.
This was especially true for the section where various exotic woods were planted; all the Spirit Wood there had grown exceptionally well.
However, because they hadn’t been harvested for so long, they had all grown packed together, forming an almost impenetrable wall of wood.
’Whoa, Spirit-Repelling Black Gold Wood!’
Xiao Chen recalled the illustrations and recognized it as a special hardwood used specifically for refining Defensive Spiritual Artifacts.
It had a reputation for being "as indestructible as gold and a cut above iron."
He reached out and knocked on it lightly, immediately hearing a THUD, THUD, as if he were striking a piece of steel instead of wood.
