"Nothing…?" Observing the spirit berry bush, Xuan Hao had a confused look on his face as he tried his best to see if he missed something, but in the end, he found nothing hiding beneath the spirit berry bush.
"I swear I saw something moving there…" Muttering this to himself, Xuan Hao shook his head and moved deeper into the underground garden as he picked up the different spiritual plants and herbs along the way.
The only things he did not take with him was the crystal trees as they were simply too difficult to move and were not too rare. Taking the different spiritual herbs and plants growing in the underground garden was more than enough…
Unknown to Xuan Hao at this point in time, a pair of eyes opened behind him and observed as he left the spirit berry bush before going deeper into the underground garden before quickly disappearing again.
Xuan Hao did not notice this and instead focused on the different plants and spiritual herbs that appeared along the path that he was following.
By this point, Xuan Hao could already feel that his interspatial ring was close to being full at this point in time, so he could only reluctantly stop himself and only focus on picking up the more precious spiritual herbs and plants.
Walking along the path of the underground garden, Xuan Hao soon came to a stop as he saw a gate similar to the one, he had seen in the main palace of the ancient palace complex earlier on.
The gate was covered in all sorts of foliage from the underground garden, that had grown all over it. Completely covering the gate in the process.
This did not stop Xuan Hao from recognising it immediately.
"Another entrance to the secret realm…" Looking at the gate located in the middle of the underground garden, Xuan Hao muttered this to himself as he cautiously approached the gate covered in different vines and other sorts of plants that had grown on it over the years. contemporary romance
Compared to the gate he had seen earlier on in the throne room of the main palace; this gate was way smaller in size and did not have any sort of seal on it.
At least Xuan Hao could not see any visible seal on the gate preventing him from opening it up like the one in the throne room.
Creak~
Pushing open the gate, Xuan Hao watched with a shocked expression on his face as the gate effortlessly began to open up without any resistance.
"This feels way too easy…" Staring into the pitch-black darkness beyond the gate, Xuan Hao clearly knew that the gate led to a completely different place compared to the entrance he had used to get into the secret realm in the first place.
Behind him, a pair of eyes shining in a bright green colour also appeared in a nearby crystal tree as it looked into the pitch-black darkness of the gate with fear.
Rumble! Bang!
The rocky ceiling of the underground garden suddenly began shaking, as Xuan Hao saw a few glowing crystals fall down from above and crush a few nearby crystal trees in the process.
"Hah… I hope that nothing goes wrong…" Sword prepared, Xuan Hao cautiously entered the gate and officially left the secret realm.
The owner of the pair of green eyes did not do the same and instead waited around for a good five minutes before also entering the gate after Xuan Hao.
…
"This should be the storage room, but it looks like it has already been emptied out…" Standing in front of the entrance to the storage room and looking in, General Liu sighed as he said in a sad voice.
If they didn't get anything out of entering the secret realm, General Liu could not imagine how he would be able to justify working together with his enemies… Even if the Imperial Teacher was the one who ordered him to do it, General Liu still did not feel like it was right for them to work together with their archenemies.
Let alone now that it seemed like they would not even get anything out of it other than risking their lives together…
"Calm down Liu, look over there!" Seeing the increasingly distorted look on General Liu's face, General Zhang walked over from the side as he pointed at somewhere far off in the corner of the storage room where a small unremarkable wooden box was located.
It was the only thing inside of the storage room and General Liu had even managed to miss it when he looked inside of the storage room the first time.
Now hearing what General Zhang said, he once again looked inside the storage room and saw the small unremarkable wooden box located in the corner that General Zhang had pointed out.
"Hm… What do you think it is, Z-Zhang…?" Having a difficult time calling General Zhang without his title in front, General Liu walked over to the small unremarkable wooden box and picked it up.
"No idea… Let's open it." Standing beside him, General Zhang took the small unremarkable wooden box out of General Liu's hand and located a small lock that he easily destroyed with his strength before opening up the box and seeing what was inside.
"This!"
"Hm? What is it?" Hearing the shocked voice from General Zhang as he opened the wooden box, General Liu grew curious as he moved over to see what was inside of the wooden box.
"Soul Enhancing Flowers!? And more than a dozen of them!?" Not able to keep himself from exclaiming loudly upon seeing the dozen or so delicate flowers inside of the box, General Liu felt a wave of excitement wash over him.
Working together with the Onyx Empire for Soul Enhancing Flowers was more than worth it, as the trip to the secret realm could already be considered to be worth the risk.
Soul Enhancing Flowers were incredibly rare spiritual flowers that could help purify and strengthen the soul, it was one of the most sought after spiritual herbs by Soul Ascension Realm cultivators as it would be extremely beneficial for them.
The effects of the Soul Enhancing Flower were of course not just limited to the Soul Ascension Realm but was even more miraculous for Domain Lord and Nascent Soul Realm cultivators.
Domain Lord Realm cultivators would have an easier time cultivating and even increase their chances of breaking through into the Soul Ascension Realm in the future!
For Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, it could guarantee that they would be able to easily reach the Domain Lord Realm and ensure that they would be able to go further on the path of cultivation.
All in all, the earlier that the Soul Enhancing Flower was consumed, the larger benefit it would bring to the cultivator. The Nascent Soul Realm being the earliest possible realm, as the Soul Enhancing Flower's strengthening effects to someone that had yet to overcome the cloud tribulation and reach the Nascent Soul Realm would be too powerful and instead end up killing the person who consumed it instead of strengthening their soul.
Seeing the over dozen Soul Enhancing Flowers inside of the box, General Liu knew very well that there would at least be 6 for their side after splitting them together with the Onyx Empire.
Other than that, he knew very well that he would get at least one of them from being one of the two to discover the Soul Enhancing Flowers, General Zhang was the same as both of them were excited over the prospect of being able to use a Soul Enhancing Flower.
Whoosh~
It was at this point where both of them were excitedly thinking about how they were going to use the Soul Enhancing Flowers in the future, that a small mist slowly drifted over before turning into a person that quickly grabbed the box of Soul Enhancing Flowers before turning to leave.
"Stop him!" Seeing the Soul Enhancing Flowers in front of him suddenly disappear, General Liu angrily screamed as he watched the wanderer that they had chased away earlier suddenly appear and steal away the Soul Enhancing Flowers.
General Zhang was a little more prepared compared to General Liu as he reacted the moment that the wanderer appeared and snatched away the box of Soul Enhancing Flowers.
Using a movement technique to block the thief's escape path out of the storage room as General Zhang did not wait for even a second as he quickly drew his weapon and launched an attack towards the wanderer.
Swish~
A terrifying blade energy suddenly appeared in front of the wanderer as he took out his wooden staff to defend against the blade attack launched by General Zhang.
Not expecting that the other party was cable of using such a terrifying movement technique to block his escape path.
Boom!
Both the attacks collided as both parties were flung backwards by the sheer force.
The wanderer looking relatively better compared to General Zhang.
This however did not last for long, as the wanderer found himself between a rock and a hard place. General Zhang blocking him in front and General Liu behind him.
Even if he had reached the middle stages of the Domain Lord Realm, he had only recently reached it and did not feel too confident in dealing with the continuous attacks from two other Domain Lords at the same time…
Worst of all, both of them were generals from the Onyx and Sky Empire… Their combat experience in dealing with Domain Lord level opponents would be far superior to his own as a wandering cultivator…
But he could simply not let go of such an opportunity… The Soul Enhancing Flowers might be the only shot he would ever get at surpassing the Domain Lord Realm and reach the Soul Ascension Realm in the future…
