“This is a treasure, a real treasure, a fifth-tier spiritual medicine!”

He carefully reached out, gently touching the leaves of the Heaven Dripping Marrow as if caressing the cheek of a loved one. His manner made both Xu Yan and Meng Chong break out in goosebumps!

“Tell us about this Heaven Dripping Marrow.”

Xu Yan asked.

Meng Shushu took several deep breaths to calm his excited heart, saying, “The Heaven Dripping Marrow is a unique spiritual medicine. Its tier is not fixed; the longer it grows, the higher its tier becomes, and it’s rumored to grow into a top-tier spiritual medicine.

“To determine its tier, one must count how many droplets it harbors. Less than nine droplets make it a sixth-tier medicine. Nine to eighteen droplets make it a fifth-tier. This Heaven Dripping Marrow plant has exactly nine droplets.”

Upon inspection, Xu Yan and Meng Chong discovered that indeed, nine branches each suspended a droplet.

Even the same tiered spiritual medicines come with high, medium, and low grades.

This Heaven Dripping Marrow is a low-grade fifth-tier medicine.

Yet, even so, it is a rare treasure in the Inner Domain.

“It’s said that the Heaven Dripping Marrow is a rare kind of spiritual medicine. It has a magical effect of strengthening a martial artist’s willpower, enhancing their comprehension, and their innate talent. Every time one appears, it causes a scramble among the great grandmasters. Among the fifth-tier medicines, it belongs to a particularly precious category.”

Meng Shushu continued explaining.

“Enhancing comprehension and innate talent? So magical?”

Xu Yan was taken aback.

Meng Chong rubbed his hands, this truly was a treasure.

A single Heaven Dripping Marrow plant, a fifth-tier medicine if it was processed into an elixir, imagine how powerful it would become?

It was almost unthinkable!

At this moment, Xu Yan couldn’t help feeling excited. His parents’ innate talent was mediocre. If they had an elixir produced with Heaven Dripping Marrow, it could improve their talent and comprehension, making martial arts practice much easier.

In the Inner Domain, such medicines are generally consumed directly. As for refining them into elixirs, that involves stewing them into pills with other medicines — not much more than that.

In Xu Yan and Meng Chong’s opinion, this was squandering of a precious resource.

A medicine like Heaven Dripping Marrow would never be mixed with others and stewed in the Inner Domain. People dared not destroy its effects and would generally consume it directly.

This was an even greater waste!

Refining it into an elixir was the right thing to do!

“This Heaven Dripping Marrow, if we take it to the Tianbao Pavilion, we should be able to exchange it for a storage bag.”

Meng Shushu excitedly said.

“No way!”

Xu Yan and Meng Chong spoke simultaneously.

You can buy a storage bag because Tianbao Pavilion has them. But the Heaven Dripping Marrow is a spiritual medicine you can come across but can’t seek out.

Besides, let Meng Shushu sort out the storage bag matter himself. This Heaven Dripping Marrow plant definitely cannot be taken in exchange.

Meng Shushu gave an embarrassed smile, then said, “Or, let’s just eat it together. See if it can really enhance our innate talent.”

“No, eat it directly? Are you a cow? Of course, it must be refined into an elixir.”

Xu Yan outright refused.

“Elixir?”

Meng Shushu blinked. He had never heard of it.

He thought of the impressively effective healing medicine Meng Chong had given him to take, could that have been an elixir?

“Meng, you quickly dig up the Heaven Dripping Marrow and seal it well. Don’t let a bit of medicinal potency leak. Once the elixir is successfully refined, I’ll give you one.”

Meng Chong said.

This treasure spot was partly thanks to Meng Shushu, and he would be a part of their party in the future, specifically responsible for finding spiritual medicines. They couldn’t just order him around without giving him any perks in return.

“Okay, no problem!”

Meng Shushu did not ask any more about the elixir.

It was clearly something secretive. But as long as he could receive one, he wouldn’t come away empty-handed. Besides, the effects would probably be better than consuming the Heaven Dripping Marrow directly, right?

Meng Shushu began to dig up the Heaven Dripping Marrow. Since it was a fifth-tier medicine and incredibly precious, Xu Yan and Meng Chong, not skilled in harvesting medicines, wouldn’t dare lend a hand indiscriminately.

Only now did they find time to look around.

Apart from the Heaven Dripping Marrow, they discovered several other medicinal fields. Each had a spiritual medicine growing in it.

“Sixth-tier spiritual medicines?”

Xu Yan and Meng Chong’s eyes lit up.

Sixth-tier spiritual medicines were the highest tier medicines openly available in the Inner Domain, rare and costly. And here were several of them.

Both of them refrained from harvesting, leaving everything to Meng Shushu to handle.

After the Heaven Dripping Marrow was extracted, Meng Shushu took out a thin membrane, carefully sealing the medicine and reinforcing the membrane with his inner qi.

Only after finishing his careful work, did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

“Thank goodness, I didn’t lose the sealing meds I was carrying.”

Meng Shushu carefully collected the remaining sealing meds and began to forage the remaining spiritual medicines.

“These are all level six spiritual medicines. Two of them are top-grade, the rest are medium-grade.”

Meng Shushu explained.

He ripped out the level six spiritual medicines and used the sealing med to restrict them. However, there weren’t enough sealing meds, so two of them were left unsealed.

“Be careful with these two, don’t damage them. When we get to town, we can buy some more sealing meds from Tianbao Pavilion to seal them.”

Meng Shushu ripped off a piece of his clothing carefully wrapped the two level six spiritual medicines, and handed them over to Meng Chong.

“No problem.”

Meng Chong excitedly and carefully took them.

Heavenly Essence, of course, is safer with Xu Yan. Even if the Great Grandmaster comes, he couldn’t snatch it away.

There are too many spiritual medicines, and without a storage bag, Meng Shushu was about to take off his clothes to wrap them up, when he saw Xu Yan pull out a large bag.

“Thank goodness, I was prepared. Finally, I got to use it.”

Xu Yan happily stuffed the spiritual medicines, one after another, carefully into the bag.

Meng Shushu was stunned. Could you predict the future? Carrying a large bag with you in advance?

Meng Chong regretted, “It’s a pity that my bag fell off when I was being chased by the Great Grandmaster!”

Meng Shushu:…

True to their status as fellow brothers, they were both carrying large bags, right?

With a full bag of spiritual medicines, Xu Yan was delighted. Finally, he fulfilled his promise to his younger sister.

He had also stored quite a lot of spiritual medicines in Tianbao Pavilion. Moreover, he also had quite a few spirit crystals and could afford to buy a lot of spiritual medicines. He should be able to collect all of the spiritual medicines on his sister’s list.

“Disciple, you hold these spiritual medicines.”

Xu Yan handed over the bag full of spiritual medicines to Meng Chong.

Meng Chong, with his muscular stature, was more suited to carrying this large bag, while the Heavenly Essence and several well-sealed level six spiritual medicines were wrapped up and carried by Xu Yan.

“Let’s go.”

All the spiritual medicines in the spiritual medicine treasure land have been harvested, with nothing else left, it was time to leave.

Moreover, having killed the black-robed Great Grandmaster, if other powerful figures sensed it and killed again, it would be somewhat troublesome.

After all, under the current circumstances, they were not in a suitable state for a big battle, as it could easily damage the spiritual medicines.

After getting out of the spiritual medicine treasure land, Xu Yan was alert to his surroundings and found no enemies, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Brother, should we head home now?”

Meng Chong asked, his face full of excitement.

Carrying such a large bag of spiritual medicines, it’s not appropriate to venture into the inner domain anymore. They should also make a trip back to the borderland. He guessed his sister must be eager for them to go back.

The level six spiritual medicines, especially the Heavenly Essence, should not stay in Tianbao Pavilion.

Although Tianbao Pavilion had an excellent reputation, as his master said, it was only because they hadn’t encountered an interest convincing enough for them to abandon their credibility.

Who can be sure whether Heavenly Essence is tempting enough for Tianbao Pavilion to breach their principles?

“These spiritual medicines need to be sealed. It’s about time to go back. I also need to retrieve my stored spiritual medicines and visit the Canglan Island. I also have to buy the spiritual medicines on the list.”

Xu Yan pondered for a while. It was about time to go back.

“Once the spiritual medicines are sealed, you can go back first. I will retrieve the saved spiritual medicines and buy the ones on the list after saying goodbye to Brother Xie.”

It’s been a fruitful trip to the inner domain. It was about time to go back and work on improving his skills.

Next time he comes to the inner domain, he should be able to move freely.

“Okay!”

Meng Chong nodded, his face fierce, “Next time I come, I will definitely defeat a few Great Grandmasters. That’s the only way to let out this stifled breath!”

With so many spiritual medicines, his sister should be able to refine many pills. With the help of the pills, his practice of the Great Sun Golden Body will surely speed up.

It won’t take long for him to make a breakthrough. When his Innate Realm is complete or perfect, he will return to the inner domain, go straight to the lair of those black-robed people, and take them down.

He also wants to defeat a Great Grandmaster!

“Disciple, next time you come, you can visit the Seven-Star Study Palace, pass the nine-tier challenge platform, and check out the martial arts books in the scripture pavilion. It will benefit you.”

Xu Yan said seriously.

“Brother, I’ve got it.”

Meng Chong nodded.

Meng Shushu remained silent the whole time. This pair of disciple-brothers were mysterious and overbearingly powerful. Meng Chong had already started to plan how to defeat a Great Grandmaster.

They were truly terrifying!
