Three days before the start of the martial arts tournant, Xu Zii was also preparing for sothing.
Zimo had reached the pinnacle of the Divine Vein Realm for a long ti, but had yet to step onto the Immortal Path.
This also indirectly showed the difficulty of stepping into immortality.
Many people remain stuck in the Divine Vein Realm for their entire lives without ever entering it.
The biggest difference between the Divine Vein Realm and Immortal Ascension is the eternal separation of mortals from immortals, and a drastic increase in lifespan.
Most of the strong practitioners in the Immortal Path no longer need the Dust Blood Coffin to sustain their lives.
Unless their ti is too ancient.
For humans to break through to the Immortal Path, they must open the ninth Vein Gate, "Shen Poxu," also commonly known as the Immortal Gate.
That is, establishing a bridge between heaven and earth within oneself to directly reach the Other Shore.
The way for Monster Beasts is similar, except their Vein Gates open from the outside in, making it much more difficult.
And because Monster Beasts are generally stronger within their rank, the essense blood and insight into the Immortal Realm they need to breakthrough are far more difficult than for humans.
Xu Zii had been studying the ways for Monster Beasts to break through recently.
According to the books, besides Monster Beasts’ autonomous breakthrough via enlightennt, external stimulants and assistance could also be employed.
The book provided a certain type of pill for this.
Blood Devouring Immortality Pill!
By blending the essense blood of the Ancestor Devouring Beast, Blood Wasteland Grass, Heavenly Arrival Flower, and Breaking Immortal Soul,
and with the assistance of so other Mysterious dicine, this Blood Devouring Immortality Pill could be refined.
Of course, since every Monster Beast has different attributes,
among the pill’s four most crucial herbs, the Heavenly Arrival Flower can be substituted based on attribute.
Although Ruhu’s attribute is devouring, it leans more towards the Fire series, so there’s no need to substitute the Heavenly Arrival Flower.
As for the other three main herbs, Xu Zii decided to visit the Hundred Herbs Garden.
This is the advantage of being the Saint Heir, if he really needs it.
The Sect will also provide so for him for free if available; if not, they will try their best to find these herbs.
...
The Hundred Herbs Garden is located to the southwest of the True Martial Holy Sect.
It is the largest dicinal field within the True Martial Holy Sect, where almost all the Mysterious dicine planted is rarely seen in the common world.
Legend has it that long ago, the True Martial Holy Sect had a dicine Saint.
This dicine Saint’s understanding of dicinal principles and the cultivation of Mysterious dicine was unmatched throughout the entire Yuan Central Continent of that era.
It was only because of the dicine Saint’s excessive obsession and insanity over Mysterious dicine
that he never took cultivation seriously.
Despite the True Martial Holy Sect’s best efforts, they were ultimately unable to help him break through to the Immortal Realm.
Although the dicine Saint was only a Divine Vein Realm martial artist, Immortal Ascension Boundary pharmacists often ca to consult with him on dicinal theory.
As his lifespan in the Divine Vein Realm ca to an end, the dicine Saint chose not to drag his existence out in a Dust Blood Coffin.
Eventually, he chose to disintegrate into this piece of heaven and earth.
On the day of his disintegration, legend has it that hundreds of flowers mourned in unison, thousands of trees lanted, and a torrential downpour fell from the sky.
Ever since, this piece of land has beco Divine Land.
Mysterious dicine planted on Divine Land doesn’t require too much human care; it grows by itself.
Not only is the survival rate high, but the plants are even known to revert to ancestor species.
And the growth cycle is also much faster.
From then on, with the strong support of the True Martial Holy Sect, this place beca the Hundred Herbs Garden.
...
The Hundred Herbs Garden is normally managed by three Elders.
That is, Lin Ruhu’s grandfather.
After arriving at the Hundred Herbs Garden, Xu Zii spoke a few words with the disciple guarding the gate and then walked straight in.
The Hundred Herbs Garden, nearly a hundred li in size, stretches as far as the eye can see, with flowers and trees being the most prominent feature here.
```
The space was filled with the rich aroma of herbs, and upon closer examination, there was also a faint fragrance.
Purple Charm Dragon Emperor Ginseng, Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, Polar Poison Devil Vine, Sun Tree, Nine-Tailed Dragon Malva Flower…
These rare Mysterious dicines, commonplace in the mundane world, were all over the place here.
It felt as if they were as common as weeds.
Moreover, this Hundred Herbs Garden was ho to many Monster Beasts.
These Monster Beasts lived in the garden, helping each other.
Just as the spreading of pollen relies on bees.
Animals do indeed benefit plants.
Xu Zii walked straight in, passing through the lush jungle.
He walked along the shaded paths, weaving through the strong scents of flowers and herbs.
In the middle of the Hundred Herbs Garden, there was a simple straw hut.
A crystal-clear river flowed gently by the side of the hut.
This water was not ordinary stream water but actual Spiritual Liquid.
They used real Spiritual Liquid to irrigate these immortal-grade herbs.
Only the Imperial Rule Immortal Sect could afford such lavishness.
An old man dressed in green clothed wandered through the garden.
He carefully tended to every plant here.
So needed pruning, others required their roots to be arranged, and there were also mature Spirit fruits that needed picking.
The Elder had a basket slung over his arm and walked unhurriedly, appearing quite content.
It seed that this task was not so much a job as it was a pleasure, and he thoroughly enjoyed it.
"Elder Three," Xu Zii called out softly.
Since Elder Three was reserved by nature, and thanks to Lin Ruhu, Xu Zii had a closer relationship with him than with the other Elders.
"Ah, Zimo," turned Elder Three, smiling gently as he asked, "Do you need sothing from ?"
"I would like to inquire about a few Mysterious dicines and whether our Hundred Herbs Garden has them," Xu Zii said with a smile.
"Go ahead," nodded Elder Three.
Xu Zii then listed the four main dicines he was looking for.
The various auxiliary dicines were not as important.
Hearing Xu Zii’s words, Elder Three paused for a mont and asked, "Do these Mysterious dicines all have sothing to do with Monster Beasts?"
"Do we have them?" Xu Zii nodded and asked.
"The Essence Blood of the Ancestor Devouring Beast, Blood Wasteland Grass, Heavenly Arrival Flower, these three should not be a problem," Elder Three reflected for a mont before responding.
"But the Breaking Immortal Soul is indeed rare, I haven’t heard of it for thousands of years."
"Then give the other three, as for the Breaking Immortal Soul, I shall try to find it on my own when I have the chance," Xu Zii considered for a mont before replying.
"Alright, just apply at the Sect Gate.
If the Sect Master agrees, I will prepare them for you," Elder Three smiled and answered.
"Given your status as the Saint Heir, it should not be a large issue."
After chatting with Elder Three for a while longer, Xu Zii left the Hundred Herbs Garden.
The Breaking Immortal Soul was truly rare; it was said that during the era of Wild Desolation, a plant called Illusionary Immortal Vine existed.
This Illusionary Immortal Vine would produce five gourds every one hundred years.
Although these gourds had no life, they possessed Divine Souls.
People referred to these Divine Souls as Immortal Souls.
Because Immortal Souls greatly aided in opening Vein Gates, every appearance of the Illusionary Immortal Vine caused a frenzy among humans.
Over ti, people began to refer to the gourds’ Immortal Souls as Breaking Immortal Souls.
...
After leaving the Hundred Herbs Garden, Xu Zii rested for three days at Goose Southern Peak.
Ti flew by, and the annual grand and bustling martial arts tournant of the True Martial Holy Sect finally began to unfold within the Heavenly Domain.
