Scanning the Divine Nest panel data displayed in his vision, Zhang Yuan without hesitation distributed the recently acquired thirty thousand plus points of Source Material equally to the Red-eyed Crow and the Gray-toothed Lynx.
In this not very intense battle, he had slain over a hundred enemies.
Including several Tier Four experts.
Therefore, the Source Material gained was quite substantial.
Yet the Red-eyed Crow and Gray-toothed Lynx had suffered severe injuries earlier and were still in a state of slumber within the Divine Nest, showing no signs of recovery.
So even though the Source Material was precious, he was willing to invest it.
Because the Source Material could not only evolve the host but also heal or even resurrect the host.
Actually, the Gray-toothed Lynx was fine, but the Red-eyed Crow was of great importance to Zhang Yuan.
With this Profound Spirit guarding him, he could sleep peacefully in the wilderness.
Unafraid of enemies or eerie ambushes.
More importantly, the Red-eyed Crow soared above the skies, monitoring an area spanning several dozen or even a hundred miles.
Allowing Zhang Yuan to anticipate enemy actions.
In so respect, Zhang Yuan had developed quite a dependency on the Red-eyed Crow.
Any amount of Source Material invested was worth it.
Closing the Divine Nest panel, Zhang Yuan put away the Overlord Halberd and rode on Black Cloud Treading Snow, slowly advancing on the grasslands.
This steed, though extraordinary, had not reached the level of a Spirit Beast or Demon Beast. The previous charge with Zhang Yuan on its back had left it drenched in sweat and exhausted.
This was mainly because the Overlord Halberd Zhang Yuan wielded was too heavy, exceeding the normal load capacity of Black Cloud Treading Snow.
If it were the Gray-toothed Lynx, the situation would have been completely different.
Of course, Zhang Yuan was in no rush to travel.
He even thought about engaging in another battle to gather more Source Material as "reserves," which could be used in ergencies.
However, while Zhang Yuan had a good plan, the enemies weren’t cooperative.
Perhaps they were terrified by Zhang Yuan’s ruthless and rciless thods. No Hulan Tribe mbers appeared on the subsequent journey.
Until he reached near Nacuoda.
Upon seeing the magnificent city beneath the snowy mountains in the distance, a thought suddenly stirred in Zhang Yuan’s heart.
The next mont, on the back of his left hand, the Divine Nest Badge silently erged, and the Red-eyed Crow appeared from thin air, spreading its wings and swooping towards the sky, letting out joyful cries.
A surge of indescribable joy welled up in Zhang Yuan’s heart.
He opened the Divine Nest panel and found that the Red-eyed Crow had not only completely recovered but also increased its evolution level significantly.
However, to advance further, a substantial amount of Source Material was still required.
The higher the host’s tier, the more Source Material needed for progression, with the requirent doubling at higher levels.
Zhang Yuan was not the type who relished violence. As a result, the evolutionary progress of several hosts had been stagnant for quite so ti.
Kaa~
The Red-eyed Crow circled back and forth in the sky, announcing its return.
In comparison, the Gray-toothed Lynx wasn’t as fortunate.
Probably due to severe injuries, despite the equal amount of Source Material Zhang Yuan invested earlier, it had yet to recover.
Zhang Yuan didn’t mind, he shook the reins and quickened his pace towards Nacuoda.
After a dozen or so days, Nacuoda was even more bustling than when Zhang Yuan had left.
On the vast plains outside the city, tents stood densely, banners fluttered, nurous wooden arenas were scattered star-like, surrounded by enthusiastic onlookers.
Bare-chested, muscular n from the grassland wrestled on the arenas, each impressive display eliciting cheers and applause from the spectators, heating the atmosphere to the extre.
Countless bonfires were set up along the riverbank, with plump, cleanly skinned sheep being roasted over the flas.
The rich aroma wafting through the air could be slled from afar.
Nearby, won in traditional grassland attire sang and danced, and innocent children cracked whips and jingled bells, happily weaving through the crowd.
Upon witnessing this scene, Zhang Yuan knew that the annual Saigut Festival on the Hulan Grassland had already begun.
And it seed to have been going on for a few days.
Although he missed the beginning of the festival, Zhang Yuan didn’t feel any regret.
Though his initial purpose in coming to Nacuoda was to join the festivities, his achievents in Storm Valley had more than made up for any missed opportunities.
Zhang Yuan did not return to his original camp.
He watched from a distance, then took out a whistle made from exotic beast bone and blew it.
Beep~
The sharp whistle instantly spread to the distance.
This whistle, given to Zhang Yuan by Wulan Tuya, was ant for signaling.
They had agreed that once Zhang Yuan returned with the Blood Orchid, he would blow the whistle.
This would inform Wulan Tuya of his return, prompting her to leave the city to et him and complete their transaction.
After blowing the whistle three tis, Zhang Yuan quietly waited.
He didn’t have to wait long; only half a tea session passed before a group of riders hurried out of Nacuoda City and rushed towards his position.
Among them, Zhang Yuan imdiately spotted Bazhad and the veiled Wulan Tuya.
This grassland noblewoman did not ride a luxurious carriage but personally rode a white steed, charging through the bustling crowd under the escort of dozens of elite knights.
Zhang Yuan could completely sense her eagerness and anticipation!
After all, it concerned her very life.
Soon, Wulan Tuya and her entourage arrived in front of Zhang Yuan.
Zhang Yuan dismounted, retrieved the pre-prepared Jade Box from his bag, and handed it to the grassland noblewoman: "Mission accomplished."
Wulan Tuya, just having dismounted, trembled all over, her starry eyes revealing unparalleled joy.
She involuntarily took a few steps forward, nearly bumping into Zhang Yuan before regaining her senses.
"Sorry."
The grassland noblewoman apologized shyly, then accepted the box Zhang Yuan offered with both hands.
Treating it as a treasured gift!
Carefully, she opened the lid, and inside was a five-leaf Blood Orchid that instantly caught her eye.
Wulan Tuya was stunned.
She seed to be petrified, holding the box without moving.
Zhang Yuan was puzzled: "What’s wrong?"
Could it be the Blood Orchid he collected from Storm Valley was not up to standard?
That would be disastrous!
But the next mont, Wulan Tuya raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and choked, "No mistake, this is the Blood Orchid I need, Mr. Zhang Yuan, I will never forget your kindness!"
With that, she respectfully bowed to Zhang Yuan!
