Two hours later.
Xiao Chen calmed himself down. After two hours of adjusting his breathing, he suppressed the agitation in his heart. His entire body calmed down. Be it the Qi and blood in his body or the mysterious Qi, they were all withdrawn.
He was like an ordinary person. The strange feeling that he had felt when he came down from the Divine King's Altar had also disappeared. He was like a piece of glowing jade that covered the brilliance.
This wasn't because his foundation had been exhausted. Instead, it was a kind of accumulation and accumulation. He was looking forward to making his foundation even stronger.
Roar!
Soon, a golden figure barged into the hall. The little Pegasus came to Xiao Chen like a golden ray of light. It had also sensed that Xiao Chen had woken up.
"Little fella, it's time for us to return to the tribe. I wonder how the War God Palace is doing after it reopened." Xiao Chen looked at the little Pegasus and smiled.
"Are we going back now?" The little Pegasus raised its golden head and said in a childish voice.
"Let's go to the War Service Hall first and see if we can find some Spiritual Medicine for the Venerable Green Dragon. Then, we'll go back to the tribe."
The Venerable Green Dragon had been affected by the attack of the Foreign Tribe's King. Even though it was just a little bit of the King's aura, it wasn't something that could be treated with ordinary Spiritual Medicine.
Although Xiao Chen knew how to refine pills, he couldn't refine pills without the Spiritual Medicine he needed. Although the Gu Yuan Tribe had been collecting Spiritual Medicine all these years, they still lacked the Spiritual Medicine.
The War Service Hall.
It was the place where the Human Tribe in the Eastern Wilderness gathered their War Service. The Human Tribe's War Service was obtained by killing the Foreign Tribe. There was no fake War Service.
The Blood Bones of the Foreign Tribe were the Human Tribe's War Service. There had never been anyone who didn't fight or protect the Human Tribe to obtain War Service.
The War Service belonged to the Cultivators. No Cultivator would fake War Service because it was a disgrace to the Cultivators!
Xiao Chen walked out of the Marquis Palace and was ready to go to the War Service Hall. As for the little Pegasus, he had already sent it to the Seal of Mountains and Rivers.
He was prepared to head to the War Service Hall. After exchanging for treasures, he would immediately get up and return to the Gu Yuan Tribe. It had been quite some time since he had left the tribe.
Similarly, Marquis Palace did not restrict Marquis's freedom. He only needed to return to Marquis Palace once every hundred years. Of course, a hundred years was still a long time for Xiao Chen.
As for his two followers, Xiao Chen did not ask them to follow him. Instead, he asked them to stay in the Eastern Royal Region. Now that he had obtained the Void Crystal, the Gu Yuan Tribe's Void Transportation Formation would be activated soon. Naturally, the Gu Yuan Tribe needed two experts to guard the Void Transportation Formation.
The Military Service Hall was located in the southeast corner of the Emperor Dong's Palace, more than 100,000 kilometers away from the Marquis Palace.
With Xiao Chen's current Realm, it would not take him too long to cross 100,000 kilometers. However, this was the Emperor Dong's Palace, so he could not cross the Void so recklessly.
Otherwise, if it made an old monster unhappy, the consequences could be imagined. It was not as if such a thing had never happened in the past.
Fortunately, Xiao Chen had the Marquis Token. This token also represented his identity as a nominal elder of the Emperor Dong's Palace. With this token, it was naturally very convenient for him to move around in the Emperor Dong's Palace. He easily stepped on a flood dragon and flew to the Military Service Hall.
The Military Service Hall was not as majestic as he had imagined. Instead, it was very quiet.
This made Xiao Chen, who had arrived at the Military Service Hall, a little surprised. The Military Service Hall was not the big hall that he had imagined. Instead, it was an extremely large courtyard, which was composed of many small courtyards.
There was only one kind of ancient tree in the entire Military Service Hall, which was called the Fallen Heart Tree.
The Fallen Heart Tree and the Fallen Heart Flower would condense and melt when the flower fell in the heart.
This was also the reason why the entire War Service Hall was so quiet. Even cultivators with surging blood Qi and overbearing killing intent would be affected by the tranquil aura of the Falling Heart Flower when they entered the War Service Hall, causing them to calm down.
Compared to the Divine Marquis Palace, the War Service Hall was much more lively. People came and went. Furthermore, the cultivators who passed by were all very strong. There were even a few cultivators whose auras Xiao Chen could not sense. He only felt that they were chaotic. Clearly, they were half-step Kings.
Human warriors hunted foreign races and obtained Military Service Points. They came to the Military Service Hall to exchange for resources. The Military Service Hall in front of Xiao Chen was the Military Service Hall of the Eastern Wasteland. There were branches of the Human Race's Ancestral Court in various regions of the Human World. Not all warriors had the ability to come to the Eastern Royal Region.
After entering the Military Service Hall, Xiao Chen directly landed in a courtyard where no warriors could enter. The entire Military Service Hall was made up of thousands of similar small courtyards. This way, thousands of warriors could exchange for Military Service Points at the same time!
Although the stone house in the small courtyard was not as majestic as the main hall, it did not lose its grandeur. It was like an ordinary meeting hall in a tribe. There was a stone table and a stone chair, and a middle-aged warrior was sitting at the head.
He wore a dark blue beast skin robe and had a calm temperament. He did not look like a steward of the Military Service Hall at all. Moreover, his strength made Xiao Chen raise his eyebrows. He was a Ninth Layer Legend rank expert.
Xiao Chen focused for a moment before reacting. He stepped into the stone house and kept guessing in his heart. Was this cultivator in front of him a Rank 9 Martial Dao Layer that he forged himself, or did he inherit the inheritance of an ancestor and refine it to become a legend?
However, even if it was a Legend rank expert who refined a Martial Path cultivator, if the thousands of small courtyards in the Military Service Hall all had a Legend rank expert, it would be a terrifying force.
"Please take a seat."
Seeing Xiao Chen enter the stone house, the Legend rank expert sitting at the head stretched out his hand and gestured for Xiao Chen to sit down. Soon, other warriors served spiritual tea, as if they were meeting friends. It did not seem like a place for Military Service Points.
"I am the steward of this Military Service Exchange, Han Sui." Seeing that Xiao Chen sat down, the steward immediately spoke again.
"May I know what treasure or Martial Path manual you would like to exchange for?"
"I would like to exchange for a Spirit Medicine that can treat the injuries of a King." Immediately, Xiao Chen did not delay and said after a short pause.
"Spirit Medicine that can treat the injuries of a King." Xiao Chen's words made the steward slightly stunned.
He could naturally see the realm of Xiao Chen's strength. He was very surprised that Xiao Chen needed a Spirit Medicine to treat injuries caused by a King.
"This is an injury caused by a foreign race king that cultivates the law of yin. Do you know which race the foreign race king belongs to? The blood race king is yin and cold, the ghost race king is evil, and the demon race king is even more terrifying. They have both races, so the pills used to treat the foreign race king's injuries are naturally different."
Han Sui described some of the differences to Xiao Chen.
However, very quickly, Xiao Chen could tell that this steward had misunderstood his words and thought that he needed a Spirit Medicine. With the value of a Spirit Medicine that could treat the injuries of a King, Xiao Chen estimated that it would be difficult to exchange for it even if he used all his battle merit points.
Naturally, choosing the Spirit Medicine that could be refined into a Spirit Medicine required a lot less battle merit points. If he could obtain a seedling and nurture it in the world of the Seal of Mountains and Rivers, it would be even more worthwhile.
"Steward Han, I need the Burial Emperor Flower, the Dead Wood Ink Lotus, and the Nine Star Sky Blue Grass," Xiao Chen said again.
The three Spirit Medicines that Xiao Chen had mentioned could be said to be extremely rare among the Heaven Rank Spirit Medicines. The Burial Emperor Flower that he had mentioned first even had the potential to become a Medicine King.
However, if one wanted to become a true Medicine King, they needed an opportunity. That was to bathe in the blood of a Medicine King and absorb the blood of a Medicine King. This was why it was called the Burial Emperor Flower.
Of course, Xiao Chen only needed an ordinary Burial Emperor Flower. Even if he gave up his entire Gu Yuan Tribe, he wouldn't be able to exchange for a Burial Emperor Flower that was bathed in the blood of a King.
Withered Wood Ink Lotus was a Heaven-rank mid-grade spirit herb, and it was classified as a miraculous object. It grew on an extremely rare withered wood. This withered wood had experienced nine lifetimes and nine deaths, and in the end, the withered wood would form a crystal that contained the aura of life and death.
The Dead Wood Ink Lotus was born from this Qi of Life and Death. The Qi of Death contained vitality. Every petal of the Ink Lotus could give a cultivator a new lease on life.
The classification of Spirit Medicines was based on their age and growth potential. The three Spirit Medicines that Xiao Chen had chosen were all extraordinary. They were naturally high-grade Spirit Medicines that had the potential to grow to the Heaven Rank.
Take an ordinary Blood Ginseng as an example. An ordinary Blood Ginseng that could grow to a thousand years old could be considered a low-grade Earth-step Spirit Herb. However, if this Blood Ginseng managed to grow to nine thousand years old by chance, then it would be classified as a high-grade Heaven-step Spirit Herb. If it could grow to ten thousand years old, then it would be a King Medicine.
Of course, an ordinary Blood Ginseng wouldn't be able to grow that long. After reaching a certain age, the medicinal power in its body wouldn't grow at all. It might even wither.
As for the growth potential of Spirit Medicines, take the Burial King Flower for example. Even if it was a seedling, it could still become a Heaven Rank Spirit Medicine. If it was innately bathed in the blood of a Medicine King, it would become a Medicine King because it had the potential to become one.
The Nine Star Sky Blue Grass was a mid-grade Heaven Rank Spirit Medicine that could grow to 8,000 years old. Its stem was blue and it had nine leaves. Each leaf had nine stars.
This kind of Spirit Medicine was very rare in the Great Desolate Lands. In reality, its value was much higher than its rank. It was something that could only be chanced upon.
Fortunately, the Venerable Green Dragon's injuries had only been slightly affected by the foreign race's King's Qi. If he had truly been attacked by a King, he would have had to find a real Medicine King to treat his injuries.
When Xiao Chen mentioned three Spirit Herbs, Manager Han was slightly startled. Of course, he understood that he had misunderstood Xiao Chen's meaning.
"The War Service Hall has all the Spirit Medicines that you have mentioned." Steward Han quickly recovered and replied.
