Tricking His Way to Heavenly Treasures
The sheer density of spiritual energy here was enough to make his heart pound with fear.
Since he transmigrated to the Primordial World, he has visited the dojos of many powerful beings.
For example, he visited the West Kunlun temple of the Queen Mother of the West, the Daoist temple inside the Wutong Divine Parasol Tree of Kong Xuan, and the Netherworld Blood River of the Ancestor Minghe.
But in terms of the density of spiritual energy, this place is definitely the most concentrated.
The slightly fragrant air and the rich spiritual energy were so intense that they even made him a little apprehensive.
Because he had only taken one step, his magical power seemed to be about to increase.
This situation truly surprised him, and even seemed somewhat unbelievable.
I never expected the spiritual energy in the Jade Void Palace to be so strong; it's truly enviable.
This place truly lives up to its reputation as Human Dao; I imagine it would be the same if other Saint were here.
There's a saying that goes, "As long as Saint live, great thieves will never cease."
In truth, these Saints were the Zhenzhen bandits of the Primordial World.
Almost all magical treasures with some fame and power have been acquired by these Saints.
Besides those treasures, who knows how much spiritual energy these Saints have plundered from the Primordial World?
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan pursed his lips.
They followed the two boys silently.
Soon we arrived at a huge flower bed.
The sea of flowers and trees that came into view once again shocked Ye Xuan.
"There are so many spiritual roots and precious medicinal herbs?"
"Is this Divine Peace Fruit?"
"Is this Mystic Yang Tiger-Tail Orchid?"
"Is this Silken Tulip?"
"Is this the Nine-Path Nightmare Tree?"
"-----------"
Ye Xuan couldn't help but rub his eyes, his face filled with astonishment.
I never imagined that so many top-grade natural treasures were grown here.
He could only name a small portion of them; he couldn't name most of them.
To my utter surprise, they all gathered here.
And they were planted here haphazardly, like weeds, as ornamental flowers, shrubs, and trees.
It really gave him the feeling that a precious treasure was being wasted.
Any one of these things, if it appeared in the Primordial World land, would probably attract the covetous eyes of countless powerful beings.
Ye Xuan couldn't help but reveal an extreme greed within him.
"Senior brothers, my Taishang Lord and your Yuanshi Lord are discussing the Great Dao of Alchemy. They need many precious herbs. Shall we get started now?"
Upon hearing this, the two boys naturally agreed immediately.
After all, if the two Saints were delayed in their alchemy process, they would certainly face dire consequences.
The three of them quickly got to work in the flowerbed.
Some passing children, seeing the three busy, inquired about the reason and joined in as well, since the affairs of the two Saints could not be delayed.
In no time, seven or eight children, including Ye Xuan, all rolled up their sleeves and got to work in the flower bed, their bottoms sticking out.
In just half a day, seven or eight hundred jade boxes had been placed next to the flower bed.
Each jade box contains a precious medicinal herb with a spiritual root.
These few plants laid out on the ground alone are enough to supply seven or eight hundred precious medicinal herbs.
The flower bed had long since become bare.
Ye Xuan looked at another flower bed nearby, still somewhat drooling with desire.
At this moment, the disciples of the Jade Void Palace seemed somewhat puzzled.
"Do the two Saint lords really need so many herbs to refine elixirs?"
"Isn't the variety a bit too much?"
Seeing that the other party was suspicious, Ye Xuan's heart skipped a beat.
"How could you or I possibly fathom the thoughts of Saint great sages? We only need to fulfill our duties as children."
"We children are only supposed to obey orders, how can we presume to guess the thoughts of the Saint and great men?"
"This fellow Daoist's idea is rather dangerous. With your temper, who knows when you might offend the Saint? If you displease the Saint, he might casually eliminate you. Wouldn't that be a terrible tragedy?"
Hearing Xiao Xuanzi's reprimanding words.
The boy trembled, taken aback.
The other party is right.
How could we, mere children, possibly fathom the thoughts of Saint men?
Even the most powerful disciples were hesitant to exchange pleasantries in front of the Saint, let alone these mere attendants.
So he quickly shut his mouth and said nothing.
With a wave of his right hand, Ye Xuan collected all seven or eight hundred of these precious plants into his system space.
"Alright, we've collected enough precious herbs. Fellow disciples of the Jade Void Palace, I, Xiao Xuanzi, will take my leave now. After all, the affairs of the two Saint cannot be delayed. Please take care of seeing me off."
Seven or eight young attendants from the Jade Void Palace also bowed and paid their respects repeatedly.
Just as Ye Xuan turned around, his eyes glanced at him slightly.
Suddenly, they noticed a red gourd on a table in a side hall in the distance.
This fist-sized gourd was crimson red, like jade, emerald, or glass; it was truly exquisitely beautiful.
Upon seeing the small red gourd, Ye Xuan's heart skipped a beat.
"This is-------"
"This is... the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Red Gourd?"
Ye Xuan was thrilled; he hadn't expected to encounter this renowned Red Gourd here.
Furthermore, this magical artifact has not yet been refined by the Yuanshi Tianzun.
In ancient times, a celestial vine appeared out of Buzhou Mountain.
Seven gourds of different colors grew on this celestial vine. Later, when these gourds matured, they were taken by several powerful beings.
The purple gourd is called the Purple Gold Gourd. It contains a magical purple light and was refined by Taishang Laozi into a wondrous treasure that can absorb all things and devour the heavens and earth.
The white gourd, called the Immortal-Slaying Gourd, contained a magical white light that was forged into a magical flying knife, specifically for slaying the primordial spirit. It was also called the Immortal Slaying Flying Knife. After several changes of ownership, it finally ended up in the hands of Daoist Lu Ya.
The golden gourd is called the Gold Gourd. It was obtained by the Saint Nuwa. It is said that it contains a magical golden light that can continuously create wondrous treasures. Legend has it that Nuwa's Demon-Summoning Banner was created from this gourd.
The yellow gourd, called the Water-Fire Yellow Gourd, contains a magical yellow light and two great paths of water and Great Dao. It possesses terrifying icy coldness and Crimson Flame True Fire, and was obtained by the Tongtian Grand Master.
The green gourd is called the Mystic Green Gourd. It is said to contain a magical green light and possess boundless vitality. It is said to have been in the hands of the Great Emperor Haotian.
The black gourd, called the Chaos Black Gourd, contained a black divine light whose purpose was unknown. It was obtained by the Yuanshi Tianzun.
The red gourd is called the Soul-Scattering Red Gourd. It contains a magical red light and has been refined into Soul-Scattering Red Sand, which can devour the physical body and pollute the source of the divine. It is extremely powerful and was originally obtained by Daoist Hongyun.
After the death of Daoist Hongyun, I never expected that this magic treasure would actually appear in the Jade Void Palace.
In other words, this magical artifact was obtained by Yuanshi Tianzun after the death of Daoist Hongyun.
A tremendous wave of emotion surged within Ye Xuan's heart.
Now that I have seen this magical artifact, it means that I am destined to have it.
It must be used for one's own purposes.
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but let out a cold smile.
