Not long after Zhao Hai returned to Demonheart City, he already knew that experts had arrived in Wang Daâs cave. Listening to these experts, Zhao Hai knew that they were from the Moonfall Palace. The strength these people displayed surprised Zhao Hai. He didnât expect the Moonfall Palace to have this much strength. They were actually able to send several experts in the Teleportation Stage at once.
Zhao Hai also knew what the Moonfall Palace did in Split River City. Several elders from the three gangs were captured by those experts for the sole reason of finding out what happened.
Unfortunately for the experts, they found that the three gangs had nothing to do with this matter. In the end, they left Split River City. Zhao Hai could also infer why the experts returned to Split River City. They were going to make a move on the Blood Knife Gang next. The problem was who they would attack.
Zhao Hai was sure that these experts wouldnât let him off. This was because Zhao Hai was the team leader of the guard party. It would be strange if the Moonfall Palace just let him go.
Zhao Hai knew that he could no longer wait. He has to find out what was inside the necklace. In the last few days, he was afraid that he would repeat Wang Daâs mistakes, so he didnât use his spiritual force to probe the necklace. But now, it seems like he has to.
The night was as dark as usual, but Zhao Hai wasnât inside his room. Instead, he was inside the Space underneath the Hundred Spirits Tree. The necklace that killed Wang Da was in his hand.
Lausa and the others stood next to Zhao Hai with worry in their faces. Laura looked at Zhao Hai and said, âBrother Hai, how about you forget it. Even if you knew whatâs inside, the Moonfall Palace still wouldnât let you off. We can still wait until we can find a way to look inside the necklace.â
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and waved his hand, âForget it, things have already come to this point. Itâs the same whether we know it sooner or later. I am just curious about what it is that the Moonfall Palace would be this rabid in searching for it. Also, if the Moonfall Palace really thinks that it is valuable, they would have sent a Teleportation Stage Expert to guard the convoy leader in secret. However, they didnât do it. Isnât that strange?â
Laura thought about it and nodded, âThatâs true. But it is also understandable. The Moonfall Palace has a lot of competition. Those people would certainly keep an eye on them. If they sent someone to protect the convoy leader and it was discovered by their competitors, then the consequence might be more disadvantageous to the Moonfall Palace. Seeing that the Moonfall Palace is doing their best to obscure any information about whatâs inside the necklace shows how important it is.â
Zhao Hai nodded, âI am now more curious about this thing. Laura, watch over me. If thereâs anything wrong, use the Space to break me out of it.â Laura nodded. Then everyone began to turn serious.
Once he was ready, Zhao Hai slowly probed the necklace with his spiritual force. Zhao Hai was very careful. He was even ready to withdraw at any time. But what surprised him was that the moment his spiritual force entered the necklace, there was no spiritual lock nor were there any attacks. Inside the necklace was an ordinary pocket of space with a jade box inside and nothing else.
Zhao Hai searched the necklace once more and found nothing. He didnât even find any hints of a foreign spiritual force.
Zhao Hai couldnât help but sigh at his good luck. It seems like the only attack inside the necklace has been fully used on Wang Da.
Zhao Hai let out a long breath and then he opened his eyes. He looked at Laura and the others and said, âItâs safe. Thereâs no danger inside.â Then with an intention, a jade box appeared in his hand.
Carefully looking at the jade box, Zhao Hai saw that it was well-made. Moreover, the entire box was made with exotic jade.
Exotic jades are a type of mutated jade and are usually found in small amounts. They were generally used for jade slips. An example of mutated jade were jade essences which are used by cultivators as currency.
A stronger jade than jade essence was the jade marrow. It was also used as currency and was more valuable compared to jade essence. The energy contained within it is also stronger.
Besides the commonly used mutated jades, there was the exotic jade. Generally, jade has the earth attribute. Exotic jade, on the other hand, has special attributes. There are even exotic jades with extreme attributes like lightning. Nobody knew how lightning-attribute jades are formed, but they are very valuable materials for creating weapons. It was precisely because of these properties that exotic jades were very expensive.
The jade box in Zhao Haiâs hand was made entirely of exotic jade. Feeling the strong vitality in the box, Zhao Hai immediately knew that the exotic jade had the wood-attribute. Only exotic jades with the wood attribute would have such strong vitality.
At this time, the Space issued a prompt, âUnique jade containing strong life force detected. Building corresponding jade mines in the Space. Space has leveled up. All crops in the Space have been enhanced by 10%. Speed of crop growth has improved by 10%.â
Zhao Hai was stunned. It must be known that it has been some time since the Space has leveled up. This was because the Space was already at a very high-level. Zhao Hai didnât expect the Space to level up at this time.
Zhao Hai immediately felt that it was worth it. At this point, whatâs inside the box doesnât matter. The upgrade of the Space and the creation of new mines was already a good outcome for Zhao Hai.
At the same time, Zhao Hai could guess why the Moonfall Palace used exotic jade for the box. Wood-attribute jade only had one general use, and that was to preserve the life force of herbs.
The True Spirit Realm was abundant with precious herbs. In the past, these herbs would need to be refined into medicine immediately or else their potency would decrease. There would even be herbs whose properties change if they were left out for too long.
Afterwards, cultivators from the True Spirit Realm discovered that exotic jade with the wood attribute could preserve an herbâs quality for a long time after it was picked. It was because of this that wood-attribute exotic jade became the most used exotic jade in the realm.
Zhao Hai doesnât need to guess whatâs inside the jade box in his hand. There was a very high chance that whatâs inside was a precious herb. This thought delighted Zhao Hai. Herbs and ores sent to the Space could be mass-produced. And seeing the Moonfall Palaceâs conduct, the herb inside should be far more than ordinary. It would definitely benefit the Space.
Although Zhao Hai was excited, he was still very careful. He inspected the jade box to see how it operated. Finally, after looking through it multiple times, Zhao Hai didnât see any traps.
Zhao Hai felt relieved and then opened the jade box. Right after opening the box, a faint medicinal fragrance immediately came out of the box. The fragrance wasnât thick, but it had a fresh scent. Smelling the fragrance made one feel like they were standing in a spring wilderness where vitality came out from every single blade of grass. It was a fresh, lively, and alive scent.
Zhao Hai and the others couldnât help but take a deep breath. But as they inhaled the scent, Zhao Hai and the othersâ spirits shook.
It must be known that the Spaceâs environment was extremely good. To make Zhao Hai and the others feel shocked tells a lot about how strong the herb is.
At this time, the Space issued a prompt, âNew plant species discovered. Scanning.. Scanning complete. New plant is classified in the True Spirit Realm as the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb. Producing Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb seeds. Host can now plant the herb in the Space. Suggesting to plant in a time-accelerated area.â
Zhao Hai stared at the prompt, waiting for it to end. Then his face lit up with happiness. He didnât expect to get his hands on a piece of Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb. It has been some time since Zhao Hai arrived in the True Spirit Realm. All this time, he has been collecting materials to upgrade the Space. Because of this, he has a comprehensive guide on the realmâs herbs. He naturally knew the value of a Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb. He just didnât think that the convoy from the Moonfall Palace that he escorted would have the herb.
The Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb was just too precious. No wonder the Moonfall Palace was being extremely careful. Now, Zhao Hai felt that their actions were appropriate. Anyone who got their hands on the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb would be this careful.
