Back in the room.
Mu Jinyu saw that Gu Xiyan had not left, and Wen Rou and Su Zijin were also accompanying Lin Qiaoxia and the others.
As soon as he opened the door, all the women sitting in the living room turned their gaze towards him in unison.
"Back so early? Everything okay?"
Gu Xiyan asked curiously.
"Everything's fine." Mu Jinyu shook his head with a smile, holding a hemp sack.
He naturally wouldn't idle away his time, and to tell them that he had already made a trip to the True Martial Hall to settle yesterday's account, and even killed a Ye Chen, possibly attracting a powerful enemy, would only cause concern.
"What's that in your hand?"
Su Zijin noticed the hemp sack in Mu Jinyu's hand and asked curiously.
"Something good." Mu Jinyu said with a smile, as he kicked off his shoes and walked over to them.
Su Zijin and Gu Xiyan moved aside to make space for Mu Jinyu.
Mu Jinyu plopped down between them and then opened the hemp sack to reveal a dazzling array of spiritual medicines within.
Lin Qiaoxia, Yu Linglong, and Xu Qingya, who had not yet begun cultivation, did not sense anything from these medicinal herbs. They only felt a faint fragrance emanating from the opened sack, refreshing both mind and spirit.
However, those like Gu Xiyan, who had started on the path of cultivation, were invigorated as they felt a strong spiritual energy emanating from these somewhat peculiar herbs.
"These herbs are..."
As the daughter of the Old Dragon King, Su Zijin had seen much and was not as puzzled as the others. After a brief hesitation, her eyes lit up as she realized something and exclaimed in surprise, "Spiritual medicine?"
"Yes, that's right, they are spiritual medicines." Mu Jinyu replied with a smile.
Then, he took out six stalks of Rushing Spirit Grass, giving one to each of the six women present, and explained, "This is called Rushing Spirit Grass. Taking it can improve one's cultivation aptitude. You should all have one."
Wen Rou, realizing the value of these spiritual medicines from Su Zijin's reaction, waved her hand, "I don't need it. Isn't my cultivation talent good enough? It would be a waste to use these spiritual medicines..."
Mu Jinyu forcefully placed it in her hand, saying, "Who ever complains of having enough talent? Don't worry, with the revival of nature's spiritual energy, these types of spiritual medicines should be gradually growing everywhere. There won't be a shortage."
Mu Jinyu also knew what Wen Rou was concerned about. She was worried that he planned to distribute these spiritual medicines to other family members or subordinates of the Dragon King Hall to enhance their strength. Since her own aptitude was quite good, she did not want to take their share.
But Mu Jinyu had plenty more Rushing Spirit Grass in his possession, enough to share with Mu Hongchen and the others. And even if he could never find Rushing Spirit Grass again, he would not consider giving such rare spiritual medicine to the parents of Gu Xiyan or Xu Qingya. It would be a waste.
Only if they were as common as weeds by the roadside would he consider giving them for the elderly to take.
Otherwise, it was not necessary to trouble the elders, and uneven distribution could easily lead to conflicts.
Wen Rou, hearing Mu Jinyu's words and seeing his determined gaze, had no choice but to take the Rushing Spirit Grass along with Gu Xiyan and the others, and consume it.
As they took the Rushing Spirit Grass, they immediately felt a warm current flowing through various parts of their bodies, at times warm and at times cold, which was somewhat uncomfortable.
But as time passed slowly.
When all the women had endured it, setting aside those like Gu Xiyan, who were just starting on cultivation, even ordinary people like Lin Qiaoxia and Yu Linglong felt significant changes in their bodies.
All the minor health issues they had were gone, and their eyesight and hearing had greatly improved.
Lin Qiaoxia, who had been somewhat nearsighted, could now clearly see the size and exact shape of a gnat five meters away.
This made them exclaim in surprise one after another.
As for Gu Xiyan and her companions, they felt the effect even more deeply; they clearly sensed that the speed at which their bodies absorbed spiritual energy had increased significantly.
The cultivation technique taught by Mu Jinyu required at least two hours to complete a cycle of Zhou Tian, but now they felt that it would take only an hour to achieve the same.
Wen Rou even felt that half an hour would be sufficient for her.
Mu Jinyu also let out a sigh of relief, opening his eyes; the Rushing Spirit Grass had not significantly improved him, but it was better than nothing.
Getting to his feet, Mu Jinyu looked towards Lin Qiaoxia and the other two women, saying, "Next, I will start teaching you a scroll of cultivation technique so you can practice with Xiyan, Wenrou and the others in the future."
"Mhm, mhm," Lin Qiaoxia and Yu Linglong nodded repeatedly.
Mu Jinyu then imparted the cultivation technique to them, and once they had learned it well enough to avoid mistakes, he left them to be mentored by Gu Xiyan and Su Zijin.
"Alright, that's enough for now. I'm going to find Aunt Mu; you all can try to cultivate," said Mu Jinyu as he picked up the hemp sack and rose to his feet.
"Yes, go ahead," said Gu Xiyan and the others with smiles.
Mu Jinyu then left the suite to find Mu Hongchen.
"Dragon Master, you're back so soon?" asked Mu Hongchen, looking up at Mu Jinyu with surprise.
Mu Jinyu nodded, saying, "Yeah, what's there at True Martial Hall that could waste my time since it doesn't even have a single God Realm expert?"p>
As he spoke, he took a Rushing Spirit Grass from the hemp sack and tossed it to Mu Hongchen, saying, "Aunt Mu, here, this is for you."
Mu Hongchen took it and asked curiously, "What is this?"
Mu Jinyu explained, "This is Rushing Spirit Grass. Consuming it can improve the consumer's aptitude for cultivation. This is also why True Martial Hall has produced so many Energy Transformation Warriors in such a short time."
"Is that so?" Mu Hongchen's eyes lit up as she heard this, but then she hurriedly said, "Then this must be very precious. You should keep it for others to use."
Mu Jinyu felt resigned yet somewhat gratified, persuading Mu Hongchen until she finally accepted it and consumed it on the spot.
Once Mu Hongchen awoke, she too was surprised by the changes in her body.
After Mu Hongchen had calmed down, Mu Jinyu smiled and asked, "By the way, Aunt Mu, I want to take a good look at the information about the people from the Divine Rankings you got for me."
"Huh? Dragon Master, what's this about?"
Hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Mu Hongchen furrowed her brow, sensing that something must have happened.
Without saying much, Mu Jinyu chuckled, "I just want to understand these people better. After all, with the revival of nature's spiritual energy, I expect they will also make rapid progress and could become formidable enemies of Dragon King Hall. It's better to be prepared."
Knowing that Mu Jinyu was holding something back—likely having provoked someone from the Divine Rankings and hence the need for preparation—Mu Hongchen wasted no more words, quickly gathering the detailed profiles of the thirty-six strong individuals from the Divine Rankings.
Shortly, Mu Hongchen had compiled the information and sent it to Mu Jinyu's phone.
"Beep beep."
Mu Hongchen shifted her gaze from the display and looked up at Mu Jinyu, saying, "Dragon Master, I've sent you their information. Which God Realm expert are you particularly interested in? You can tell me more about them and I'll dig deeper into their details..."
Mu Jinyu casually replied, "Check the top ten for me. Once you find more detailed information, send it to me. I'm leaving now."
