Chapter 415: Chapter 320: Green Pupil and Black Blood Fruit (Part 2)
The text of the Fetal Concealment Scripture only mentions the name of this herb, describing the quantity as a single unit, but does not specify what Green Pupil actually is.
A few days ago, Duan Rong lingered in the medicine room for quite a while, trying to find out if this thing called Green Pupil was listed in the exchange catalog.
But he couldn’t find it after searching through the entire catalog. At that time, leaving the Medicine Pavilion, he felt quite frustrated.
Now, as Duan Rong looked at the Star Disc in Yin Cong’s hand, he suddenly thought that since the Fetal Concealment Scripture is the core cultivation technique of the Taiyi Sect, and the medicinal materials for assisting the cultivation of the Fourth Layer must be available in the Medicine Pavilion.
The exchange catalog he saw didn’t include it, which is likely because as a Registered Disciple he doesn’t have the exchange permissions.
If he doesn’t have the permissions, Shang Xiangyu certainly does.
Shang Xiangyu is an Inner Sect Disciple and also the Sect’s Pharmacist, surely he has exchange permissions.
Duan Rong suddenly felt thankful that Yin Cong called him over today.
At the entrance of the Medicine Pavilion, they showed the Sect Cloud Scroll, and then walked in.
Yin Cong led Duan Rong, and indeed did not go to the low building in the corner as before, but walked straight along the central line, stopping in front of a tall pavilion.
The pavilion had three stories, gray walls and black tiles, simple and substantial, without any frills.
After entering the first floor of the pavilion, Yin Cong first displayed the master Shang’s Star Disc at a curved counter, receiving a yellow booklet.
The yellow booklet was half an inch thick, filled with densely packed tiny script upon opening.
Yin Cong handed the booklet directly to Duan Rong, saying, "Originally, this job was done by me and that guy Chen Hu. He would find, and I would just follow behind and install. Now it’s just the two of us working, from now on the job of finding is handed over to you."
Duan Rong looked at Yin Cong in disbelief, saying, "Brother, you’re really carefree as a Shopkeeper!"
Yin Cong chuckled, saying, "I’m just destined for the leisurely life of wealth."
Actually, having Duan Rong find things suited him perfectly, but he still pretended to complain, saying, "Brother, at least teach me before you become your idle self..."
At that moment, Yin Cong leaned directly against a large pillar, sitting on the ground, yawning, saying, "There’s nothing to teach about this. You’re so smart, you’ll figure it out just by looking at it."
Duan Rong grinned, saying, "Then... this... what does Er Geng Shen Ba San mean?"
Duan Rong was already flipping through the booklet, noticing that every herb had a string of codes following it.
Yin Cong lazily leaned against the pillar, saying, "Isn’t this simple? The first Er indicates it’s on the second layer of this pavilion. The middle Geng Shen is the rack number. Each rack is divided into eight parts. The final Ba San refers to the third row of the eighth section."
With Yin Cong’s explanation, Duan Rong understood everything.
His eyes gleamed, scanning through the booklet with great speed.
Soon, at the bottom of the fifth page of the booklet, he saw the herb called "Green Pupil."
In the booklet, each item has a simple annotation under its name.
It was written:
Green Pupil: The third eye of the juvenile Primordial Beast White Wolf.
"Juvenile Primordial Beast? Third eye?"
Duan Rong stood there, his eyes flickering, thoughts swirling.
That day, when Pan Yong took him to the Guanglu Institute to receive the Star Disc, he told him that Registered Disciples could take on tasks in the plaza of the Guanglu Institute to earn Contribution Points.
At the time, Duan Rong noticed a task on the notice board about assisting in capturing juvenile Primordial Beasts, and the offered Contribution Points were quite high.
At the time, as the trio was heading from the Guanglu Institute to the Medicine Pavilion, Duan Rong asked Pan Yong about the matter of juvenile Primordial Beasts.
Then, Pan Yong paused only briefly before explaining to Duan Rong.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi in this world suddenly dried up.
Only within the Divine Demon Ruins retained in this world, due to the differing Heavenly Dao Laws compared to the outside world, the Primordial Qi within the ruins remained abundant.
Most Divine Demon Ruins are discovered deep underground.
And on the periphery of the Divine Demon Ruins, due to the collision and erosion of the two types of Heavenly Dao Laws, a distorted space several hundred miles in diameter formed underground.
The species within this distorted space in the Underworld undergo various transformations, distinct from creatures outside.
Among them is a type of beast, whose flesh and blood are rich in Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, lingering long without dispersing, thus named Primordial Beast.
Deep underground in Changling Mountain lies a rather ancient Divine Demon Ruin.
This is the true reason it became the sect’s mountain gate location.
As Pan Yong finished explaining, Yin Cong chimed in, saying, "Brother Duan Rong, actually, you can spend a Contribution Point to stroll through the Scripture Repository for an afternoon to learn all of this. It’s rare that Brother Pan Yong has such patience to explain to you bit by bit. But this information must not be spread in the Mortal World."
"Do you know why it can’t be spread in the Mortal World?" At that time, Yin Cong looked at Duan Rong with feigned cleverness.
Duan Rong said, "Why?"
Yin Cong, in a deep tone, said, "It’s also a way for the sect to control the Mortal World; the sect must remain mysterious. Mystery often breeds fear."
Duan Rong gave Yin Cong a look; he disliked that kind of feigned intelligence pretentiousness from Yin Cong, but he had to admit, Yin Cong made a valid point.
At this moment, Duan Rong suddenly discovered that "Green Pupil" is actually the third eye of a juvenile Primordial Beast.
This means it comes from the distorted space in the Underworld.
With brief contemplation, Duan Rong immediately looked at the next line, noticing the exchange points for one Green Pupil are eighty.
