Chapter 184: Securing Spiritual Plants at No Cost
🕑 Added 2023-06-23 00:02:00 +0000 UTC
"This is the comprehensive list of spiritual plants!"
Exerting his Yuan Power, Jiang Chen materialized a list; it enumerated the names of spiritual plants corresponding to the Dao Comprehension and Dao Palace realms.
The spiritual plants from the Inquiring Journey realm had exhausted their relevance at this point.
Only the spiritual plants from the Dao Comprehension and Dao Palace realms held substantial efficacy!
Moreover, 'those two' were formidable powerhouses at the Void Tribulation realm, how could they possibly settle for some inferior spiritual plants? As expected, they sought the highest grade ones!
"Excellent!"
"I'll immediately contact the Alchemy Hall, and instruct them to dispatch the spiritual plants!"
Having committed the list of spiritual plants to memory, Ji Mingxiu nodded, a sense of thrill evident in his demeanor.
"My gratitude, Master!"
A bow of appreciation was Jiang Chen's immediate response, his face glowing with delight.
"For the future prosperity of the Purple Heaven Holy Land, it is imperative that you cultivate a cordial relationship with those two!"
Ji Mingxiu gave his earnest counsel.
In the presence of the two great Void Tribulation realm powerhouses, the significance of the Purple Heaven Holy Land was virtually negligible.
He harbored no fear that these two great powerhouses might harbor covetous desires for the relatively insignificant Purple Heaven Holy Land.
Rather, his concern revolved around the potential inability to foster a good relationship with them. This could lead to a bleak scenario where, on an unfortunate day, they might thoughtlessly obliterate the Holy Land. In such a dire situation, to whom could one appeal for justice?
"Your disciple comprehends!"
Jiang Chen nodded in earnest agreement.
Shortly thereafter, with Ji Mingxiu's intervention, the Alchemy Hall swiftly delivered the spiritual plants from the list. However, the collection was only half complete.
Furious, Ji Mingxiu immediately commanded the Holy Land to procure the spiritual plants regardless of the cost!
Instantly, the entirety of the Holy Land, like a gargantuan organism, extended innumerable tendrils in a quest to find the listed spiritual plants!
Naturally, this process was time-consuming.
After all, the spiritual plants Jiang Chen requested weren't commonplace items that could be easily procured; they were spiritual plants of the Dao Comprehension and Dao Palace realms!
Nevertheless, Jiang Chen was not in a rush.
He informed Ji Mingxiu that the 'two seniors' hadn't imposed a time constraint, which allowed Ji Mingxiu to heave a sigh of relief.
Subsequently, Jiang Chen collected the gathered spiritual plants and took his leave for the time being.
Upon departing Ji Mingxiu's presence, Jiang Chen directly headed back to his residence - the Autumn Water Palace.
As a Holy Son, he, of course, had his dedicated mansion.
However, it was currently under construction. The tradition for each generation of Holy Sons forbade reusing the mansion of the previous Holy Son, thus necessitating the building of a new one.
Hence, for the time being, he resided in the mansion awarded to him as the Holy Lord's disciple.
The reason he didn't lodge in Ji Ruxue's abode was because Jiang Chen desired privacy for his cultivation.
Upon entering the meditation room, Jiang Chen positioned himself cross-legged on the floor and extended the shielding capabilities of the Heavenly Demon Hidden Heart Ring to their maximum!
He then proceeded to unpack all the spiritual plants, aligning them one by one before his gaze.
In total, there were fifty spiritual plants from the Dao Comprehension realm and three spiritual plants from the Dao Palace realm!
'Incredible!'
'This truly highlights the perks of having considerable influence.'
'If I had to depend solely on Villain Value for exchange, I wonder how many Villain Value points would be needed to exchange for such an abundance of high-level spiritual plants!'
Jiang Chen chuckled to himself, then tossed one of the Dao Comprehension spiritual plants into his mouth.
As soon as the spiritual plant found its way to his stomach, an unparalleled and majestic medicinal energy erupted instantaneously.
However, Jiang Chen was no longer his old self, and his capacity to withstand the medicinal energy had escalated considerably.
A single spiritual plant from the Dao Comprehension realm merely left him feeling a bit satiated.
Shortly, the enormous medicinal energy congregated in his dantian, and was fully absorbed by the Burning World Red Lotus!
Without delay, the Burning World Red Lotus restored a trace of its vivid red hue!
Furthermore, a considerable amount of peculiar energy nourished Jiang Chen in return, instantly progressing his cultivation base a notch higher!
Not only did his cultivation base advance, but his aptitude also saw a minor enhancement. Although it appeared insignificant, it was, in reality, extremely valuable!
Following this, Jiang Chen relentlessly consumed the spiritual plants.
After he had ingested thirty Dao Comprehension spiritual plants, the Burning World Red Lotus absorbed an even more potent medicinal energy, and the once withered lotus petals regained their luster, growing increasingly moist!
Simultaneously, Jiang Chen's aptitude and cultivation base received additional nourishment.
At this juncture, his cultivation base had ascended to the pinnacle of the Early-stage Inquiring Journey realm!
'I've hit a bottleneck!'
A subtle smile graced Jiang Chen's lips as he reached for a pill of the Inquiring Journey realm.
Ji Mingxiu, Mo Yu, among others, had gifted him a substantial amount of pills, including those designed for breaking through the minor realm bottlenecks of the Inquiring Journey realm, and they were all of top-grade quality.
They were just what he needed right now!
Poping the pill into his mouth, Jiang Chen commenced full operation of the Purple Heaven Dark Star Heavenly Scripture!
Instantly, an immense wave of medicinal energy burst forth, merging with the Yuan Power within Jiang Chen's dantian, continuously funneling into the Dao Core.
Suddenly, a peculiar fluctuation radiated from Jiang Chen's body, succeeded by a stronger aura naturally emanating outward.
'I've achieved a breakthrough!'
'I'm now at the Middle-stage Inquiring Journey realm!'
A jubilant smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Chen's mouth.
He turned his attention inwardly towards his dantian, only to witness his sun-like Dao Core radiating an even brighter luminescence!
The enormous and mighty Yuan Power flowed into it, being elevated into a more advanced Dao Yuan Power.
This power then returned to Jiang Chen's dantian, coursing through his meridians and permeating every corner of his body, boosting his abilities in all dimensions.
Within a brief span, Jiang Chen felt a substantial elevation in his strength.
'System, display my panel!'
Prompted by a thought, Jiang Chen called forth his attribute panel.

'My combat prowess has indeed improved.'
'It's a significant increase compared to the previous level!'
'However, it hasn't yet reached the Dao Comprehension realm.'
'It appears that the gap between the Inquiring Journey realm and the Dao Comprehension realm is indeed daunting.'
'Currently, I have only practiced cultivation methods of the Inquiring Journey realm. No matter how plentiful they are, they can't bridge the gap in quality.'
Musing to himself, Jiang Chen once again selected a spiritual plant for consumption.
To elevate his true combat power into the Dao Comprehension realm, augmenting the realm of his cultivation base was undeniably the most fundamental and effective strategy!
The next step was to practice cultivation methods of the Dao Comprehension realm!
However, he was currently running low on qi and blood energy, and he also lacked the time to train on his own.
He could only seek opportunities to gather qi and blood energy later on.
Considering the situation surrounding the Purple Heaven Holy Land, he anticipated that there would be disturbances soon, inevitably leading to conflicts, and hence, a surge in qi and blood!
Following this, Jiang Chen ingested twenty Dao Comprehension spiritual plants and three Dao Palace spiritual plants in succession!
