Chapter 47 - 45: Hunting Innate Demonic Beasts
"Hmm, it’s the Three-Colored Leaf Grass, it’s just a pity..."
In the perilous Demon Beast Mountain Range, on a dangerous cliff, a figure clad in a black robe, Ye Chen, appeared at this location, his gaze resting upon an odd medicinal herb growing on the sheer cliff, and he shook his head with a hint of regret.
The medicinal herb had two leaves, each circulating faint shades of yellow and blue, its colors flowing gently, exuding a refreshing fragrance that pleased the mind and spirit.
This was the immature Three-Colored Leaf Grass, which, once fully grown, would separate into three leaves, each glowing with the colors red, green, and blue. At that point, it would no longer be viewed as common spiritual medicine but would be categorized amongst the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are, in essence, a form of spiritual medicine, but they are far more valuable compared to ordinary spiritual medicines, each with their precious worth, surpassing common spiritual medicines by far.
Like the Three-Colored Leaf Grass, infused with abundant primordial energy of nature, it also possesses magnificent effects due to its potent spiritual power.
Similarly, the Blood Soul Lotus nourishes spiritual power while also having the miraculous effect of invigorating the blood and transforming the divine power.
It could be said that each Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure possesses unique benefits, typically growing only where nature’s spiritual energy is abundant, and often protected by powerful demon beasts.
The immature Three-Colored Leaf Grass before him was guarded by a giant eagle, but fortunately, it happened to be out hunting for food, so it wasn’t present, leading Ye Chen to discover this particular Three-Colored Leaf Grass.
Ye Chen didn’t pluck the Three-Colored Leaf Grass. The immature Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures could, at best, be considered ordinary spiritual medicine, and could not be compared to the true Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
Furthermore, the growth of each Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure was quite arduous, so Ye Chen preferred not to pick them, allowing them to grow naturally.
