Chapter 111: Royal Treasure Trove, Silver Emperor Heavenly Falcon
The shock of Xiao Ming's refinement had not only alarmed the powerful Dou King and above in the imperial capital but there were many more people who had seen the vision resulting from the pill refinement.
It's just that the alchemy vision was located in the imperial palace, preventing many people from investigating.
But when Mu Chen and the others, who had seen Xiao Ming, returned to their clans, they naturally told everything that had happened.
This caused Xiao Ming's refinement of the Sixth Tier Pill "Zong Breaking Pill" to spread in the Imperial City like wildfire.
...
The next day, when Xiao Ming woke up, he received a compensation gift from Nalan Jie. The compensation gift was ten rare medicinal herbs of strange appearance.
These medicinal herbs were rarely available in the market, and if Nalan Jie sent them, it was obviously because he had his eye on Xiao Ming's status as an alchemist.
After carefully examining these herbs, Xiao Ming could not help but shake his head and said to Yao Ye, who was handing him the medicinal herbs, "Princess, I will not accept these herbs, it is better to send them back to the Nalan family."
Before Yao Ye could say anything, Zi Yan, who was standing next to her, asked suspiciously, "Why won't you accept them? These medicinal herbs contain a lot of energy..."
To Zi Yan, medicinal herbs were always more than welcome, the more the better, for this kind of good stuff sent to their door, her heart would never refuse.
The party involved in the annulled marriage with the Nalan family is not him, so why would he accept a compensation gift?
Pinching Zi Yan's cheeks, who only knew how to eat and eat all day, Xiao Ming began to explain to her…
"I understand, I'll have someone send the medicinal herbs back to the Nalan family." Seeing Xiao Ming's determined attitude, Yao Ye smiled and said.
With that, she signaled in the distance and a maid rushed over.
After Yao Ye gave her some instructions, the maid quickly left with those medicinal herbs.
After the maid left, Yao Ye said with a smile, "Master Xiao Ming, I came this morning not only to deliver the medicinal herbs given by the Nalan family to you, I also came mainly to take you to the Royal Treasure Vault."
"Oh, are you alone princess, where is Elder Jia?"
"Great-grandfather, he... has some business." Yao Ye replied softly with a small blush on her cheeks, in fact, her great-grandfather was doing very well, but this morning her great-grandfather asked her how was the progress between her and Xiao Ming, and she replied that she had not had much progress.
Her great-grandfather was so anxious that, in order to create a suitable environment, the person who would originally take Xiao Ming to the Royal Treasure Vault also changed from him to her.
The purpose is self-explanatory.
When she thought about his great-grandfather's expectations, Yao Ye said in a soft voice.
"Don't worry, great-grandfather has given me enough authority, Master Xiao Ming doesn't have to worry about any mishaps you may encounter in the Royal Treasure Vault."
Looking at Yao Ye who seemed to have suddenly become gentler, Xiao Ming smiled and said, "Since Elder Jia has something important to do today, then I will ask Princess Yao Ye to accompany me."
"I will be delighted."
...
After being guided by Yao Ye, Xiao Ming and Zi Yan soon arrived at the location of the Royal Treasure Vault.
The location of the Royal Treasure Vault was not as secret as the Book Collection Hall of Jia Nan Academy.
The place was hidden in the dense forest at the back of the mountain, not far from the lake where the Serene Sea Scaly Beast was located.
When he entered the secret passage that led to the treasure, Xiao Ming also discovered a dozen high-ranking Dou Spirits hiding in the shadows.
Not caring about the gaze of these Dou Spirits, Yao Ye held up a pair of tokens and guided Xiao Ming and Zi Yan through the numerous barriers.
Finally, they arrived in front of a special stone gate over twenty meters high.
"The material the gate is made of can block the attacks of a Dou King powerhouse for a short period of time." Yao Ye explained.
She then stood in front of the stone door, and the set of tokens in his hand was inserted into the holes of the stone door.
The tokens emitted a dazzling light, and a loud sound rang out.
Rumble!
The token shone with a dazzling light from inside the stone door hole.
"Xiao Ming, there are many medicinal herbs inside!" before the stone door opened, Zi Yan pulled Xiao Ming's arm and whispered to him, with her talent ability, she was sensing the many medicinal herbs inside.
Xiao Ming smiled and nodded slightly, he was also sensing it, the imperial family had ruled the Jia Ma Empire for hundreds of years, and it seemed that many good things had been collected.
Zi Yan and Xiao Ming's conversation did not go unnoticed by Yao Ye, but she did not pay much attention to it, after the stone door was fully opened, Yao Ye turned around and smiled at Xiao Ming, "Inside is the royal treasure, please follow me both of you."
As they entered the treasure vault following Yao Ye's footsteps, Xiao Ming's attention was suddenly attracted by a flash of gold and he found a dazzling golden mountain appearing before him.
Yao Ye ignored this golden mountain, and instead led Xiao Ming and Zi Yan to continue walking behind the golden mountain.
The three of them arrived at another smaller gate.
Engraved on the small door were four large words, Royal Medicinal Herb Vault.
Replicating the operation she had just done at the first door, Yao Ye opened the door of the medicinal herb vault and a strong medicinal fragrance came out of it.
Zi Yan's eyes lit up as she smelled the aroma.
"Hehe, this is where my Jia Ma Imperial Family keeps their precious medicinal materials, Master Xiao Ming can pick as many as you want."
Xiao Ming nodded his head and entered.
The royal treasury possessed an unexpected amount of rare medicinal herbs, although there were not as many as in the Jia Nan Academy, they could still be described as abundant, or at least more than Xiao Ming's personal collection.
Accompanied by Yao Ye, Xiao Ming stopped after collecting twenty medicinal herbs.
Although Yao Ye had said that they could let him pick as many as he wanted, Xiao Ming really had no intention of shamelessly picking hundreds of medicinal herbs.
When she saw Xiao Ming stop, Yao Ye asked with a smile, "Are you done picking, Master Xiao Ming?"
"Hmm, I have finished princess."
"Since you have finished choosing from the medicinal herb storehouse, then, I will ask Master Xiao Ming to continue taking a look at the other storehouses, if there is anything that catches your eye, Master Xiao Ming can also take it."
Xiao Ming smiled and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes, it seemed that the imperial family was willing to spend a lot of money to make good relations with him.
Without refusing, he took out five herbs from the ones he had just obtained and gave them to Zi Yan, to fulfill the promise he had made to her yesterday, then they followed in Yao Ye's footsteps.
The three of them soon arrived at another treasure.
This treasure did not contain medicinal materials, but other things.
Pill recipes, treasure armor, weapons, and so on.
Only pill recipes were attractive to Xiao Ming, but he did not bother to choose any pill recipes, because he had his eye on another item.
The remains of a sixth-rank flying magical beast.
Observing Xiao Ming's gaze resting on the remains of that magical beast, Yao Ye introduced, "This is a Sixth Rank Flying Magical Beast, the Silver Emperor Heavenly Falcon, originally the Lord of the Magic Beast Mountain Range, due to his many offenses against my Jia Ma Empire, he was killed by the teamwork of my Great Grandfather and the Divine Protector Beast."
"This Silver Emperor Heavenly Falcon.... I would like to know if you can give it to me, I can exchange it for pills." Xiao Ming looked at the magical beast in front of him and said slowly.
He had heard of the great name of the Silver Emperor Heavenly Falcon, a magical beast that possessed the dual attributes of wind and lightning.
Speed was also at the top of the list within the sixth-rank magical beasts.
Ever since he had obtained the Nine-Level Wings of the Heavenly Goose, he had always wanted to get a wing from a high-ranked flying magical beast.
Unfortunately, all the flying magical beasts he was interested in were fast and stronger than him, so he never got one.
It was an unexpected pleasure to meet the Silver Emperor Heavenly Falcon this time!
"Hehehe, Master Xiao Ming is being insensitive, just now Yao Ye said that Master could choose whatever you wanted, and this Silver Emperor Heavenly Falcon is naturally included." Yao Ye laughed and said.
"However, I would like to remind Master that there is no magic core in the remains of this Silver Emperor Heavenly Falcon."
"In that case, I will accept it, the lack of a magic core is not a problem, I just need its wings." Xiao Ming waved his hand and said.
...
Other than the Silver Emperor's Heavenly Falcon, Xiao Ming never took anything else.
When Xiao Ming and the others reappeared outside the Royal Treasure Vault, they saw Jia Xing Tian waiting at the entrance.
Seeing Xiao Ming, Jia Xing Tian smilingly asked, "Master Xiao Ming, is the harvest from this trip still satisfactory?"
"It was not a wasted journey."
"It is good that Master is satisfied."
Looking at the smiling Jia Xing Tian, looking up at the sky, and thinking of the reward he had just received, Xiao Ming said, "It turns out that this place is not far from the place where the Divine Protecting Beast is, so why don't we go treat his wounds now?"
Jia Xing Tian was a little surprised by his words.
"Well then, I'll be troubling you, Master Xiao Ming."
