This item was shaped like a ginseng and had fibrous roots all over its body. The fibrous roots were like horned dragons, and the tip of the roots was overflowing with colorful light. One look and one could tell that it was a valuable spirit herb.
Gu Chen picked up the Dragon Ginseng and sniffed it. He immediately felt the vital essence in his body show signs of activity.
His heart stirred as he bit down on a piece of Dragon Ginseng. Immediately, his mouth and tongue salivated as the Tyrant Blood in his body surged and rumbled like thunder.
"This item is not bad." He nodded and swallowed the entire Dragon Ginseng in a few bites. His body instantly felt warm, and the vital essence in his body imperceptibly strengthened a little.
Although 05,555 Dao crystals were good, because his Divine Dao had been snatched, he could not absorb much of the Origin Power in the Dao crystals. On the contrary, this Dragon Ginseng spirit herb could nourish and strengthen the vital essence, which was beneficial to the improvement of his Tyrant Body.
"This item should be at least grade-four or five, right? I'm ignorant and don't know this item. It looks like I have to think of a way to improve my knowledge. "
The environment of the Chaos Sea and the Primordial Dao World were different. Although there were some natural treasures in both realms, most things were not the same.
According to what Gu Chen knew, the Dao World's elixir pills, natural treasures, Dao talismans, and Dao soldiers could be divided into ten grades, which corresponded to the Dao Integration Tenfold Realm.
When he had been strolling in the city, he had come into contact with some spirit herbs in places like medicine shops. However, regardless of their quality or medicinal efficacy, they were obviously incomparable to the Dragon Ginseng that he had just consumed.
Logically speaking, this kind of natural treasure had the best effect after being concocted into elixir pills. However, Gu Chen did not even know what this spirit herb was called. He only confirmed that it was harmless to him, so he ate it directly.
This was a little awkward. Gu Chen realized that he needed to improve his knowledge of the Dao World. Otherwise, if he could not recognize any natural treasure that everyone knew in the future, people would inevitably suspect his identity.
Once he thought of this, he immediately instructed the maidservant of the Tang Residence, who was in charge of serving him, to search for as many ancient books and scrolls as possible.
He did not have a specific target. He asked for the Dao World's history, geography, and customs.
As a distinguished family, the Tang Family naturally had a rich collection of books in their mansion. What Gu Chen wanted was not some cultivation method or secret book, but some miscellaneous books, so there was no reason for him to refuse. Soon, bundles of books were sent to his small courtyard one after another.
In the following days, Gu Chen rarely ventured out. Every day, he would flip through various books, ponder over Genesis techniques, or train. His days were quite fulfilling.
The atmosphere in Peidu grew tenser with each passing day. The effects of the Luo Gate's disappearance were gradually expanding, and the entire country was in turmoil. Even the common people in Peidu could sense the turbulent undercurrents, and they were in a constant state of anxiety.
Gu Chen didn't leave the house, but he could feel the changes, because the number of guards in the Tang Mansion had obviously increased.
Tang Xuance transferred a garrison from the Water Dance Army and stationed them in the residence. There were three layers of defense inside and three layers outside, as if they were guarding against something.
The entire Tang Family looked as if they were facing a great enemy. The only one who didn't seem to be much different from usual was Tang Jianqing. He would run over to Gu Chen's place from time to time, but most of the time, he was rejected outside the door.
Occasionally, Gu Chen would see him and learn a little about the current situation in Peidu from him.
The Mist Kingdom's army had officially arrived, and the borders of Peidu collapsed at the slightest touch. Peidu lost land repeatedly, and its people became destitute and homeless.
Everywhere in Peidu, it was rumored that the king of Peidu was immoral and incompetent, which was why the Luo Gate had abandoned him. Rumors of the country's demise spread everywhere, causing the people's morale to plummet.
Even in Peidu, a large number of assassins suddenly appeared. Several court officials were assassinated one after another, and it was rumored that it was the work of an enemy country.
It was precisely because of this that the Tang Mansion strengthened its security. In fact, it wasn't just the Tang Mansion. More Water Dance Army elites were stationed in the palace where the king of Peidu resided, and the defense was impenetrable!
Hearing that a large number of assassins had suddenly appeared in Peidu, Gu Chen recalled Ye Mi's warning and couldn't help but guess whether the assassins were related to the Pavilion of Innocence.
Another day, after sending Tang Jianqing away, a small hummingbird flew over to Gu Chen's courtyard.
Gu Chen's eyes lit up. After so many days, it seemed that there was finally news from Ye Mi.
The hummingbird landed on Gu Chen's palm, opened its mouth, and spat out a misty green bead. It didn't say anything else.
"What's this?"
Gu Chen looked puzzled as he picked up the bead and sensed it. He sensed a weak wave of mental energy spreading out from the bead, trying to enter his body and establish some kind of connection with him.
After confirming that this mental energy wave couldn't threaten him, Gu Chen simply opened his mind and allowed the bead to establish a mental connection with him.
Swish!
The world around him spun, and Gu Chen found himself in a pavilion. From time to time, illusory figures in black robes, veils, and bamboo hats passed by.
He looked down at himself and found that his body was also illusory, as if he was a projection.
"Divine Travel Bead …" Gu Chen subconsciously muttered a few words, somewhat understanding what that bead was.
He had been reading extensively these days and had gained an understanding of many strange things and monsters in the Dao World.
There was an item in the Dao World called the Divine Travel Bead, which was created by a sect called the Divine Travel Sect. With this bead, one could enter a spiritual world and communicate with others.
This spiritual world was collectively known as the Divine Travel Realm and was said to be composed of countless scattered spiritual worlds. Different Divine Travel Beads would allow one to enter different spiritual worlds.
Because it was widely used, the Divine Travel Bead was very popular among the major powers in the Dao World. However, it was expensive to make, and ordinary powers simply didn't have the financial resources to purchase it.
When Gu Chen learned of the Divine Travel Bead's existence, he was very interested in its principles and origins. He hadn't expected to have the opportunity to enter this so-called Divine Travel Realm.
Honesty Pavilion was a powerful power in the Dacheng Dynasty, so it wasn't unusual for them to have the financial resources to purchase a Divine Travel Realm. However, not every assassin in the pavilion was qualified to obtain this Divine Travel Bead.
Gu Chen was somewhat flattered. Judging from the clothes of the illusory figures around him, this was obviously the Honesty Pavilion's Divine Travel Realm, which was considered an extremely secretive place.
It seemed that Ye Mi had kept her promise to him.
"Don't be too surprised. The Divine Travel Bead I gave you can only be used three times at most. You can't go to every place in this pavilion."
A sweet female voice sounded in his ear. Gu Chen turned his head. Even though the other party's face was covered by a veil, he still recognized that it was Ye Mi.
"It seems that I'm already a member of Honesty Pavilion."
Gu Chen smiled and began to walk around.
This pavilion wasn't very big. There were only three floors in total, and each floor was no more than a few hundred meters wide.
After walking around for a while, he quickly discovered that he couldn't go up to the third floor. It was as if there was an invisible mental barrier blocking him.
As for the area outside the pavilion, there was nothing but a misty blue void.
He tried to extend his consciousness outside, but his illusory soul body quickly became unstable. His consciousness began to float, and he almost left the Divine Travel Realm!
"Look at you. You're like a country bumpkin who hasn't seen the world. I have to remind you that your Divine Travel Bead can only be used three times. If your consciousness leaves, you'll have wasted one, "Ye Mi said, exasperated.
"Can't you just give me an unlimited number of Divine Travel Beads?" Gu Chen said with some dissatisfaction.
"Do you think Divine Travel Beads are cabbages?"
Ye Mi glared at him fiercely. "Divine Travel Beads are expensive to manufacture, and only assassins at the Nation War level can have unlimited Divine Travel Beads in our pavilion. You're just a newcomer, and you don't even know your background. You're already giving me face by being able to get one. "
