System Break the Limit - Qing Shandian' Journey
Ch.07 - First Adventure, Harvesting Spiritual Potions

A gentle breeze blew over the endless sea of trees causing the branches to sway. The sea of trees was scattered with bursts of green waves that spread towards the edge of one's sight.

Inside the sea of trees, three people jumped from one branch to another. Two of them were adults, while the last one was a small boy. They were Qing Shandian, along with his parents, Qing Yuan and Lin Lianhua.

"Wush.. Wush.. Wush.."

From the way they traveled, they did not seem to be in a hurry. Every now and then, there was the sound of the loud roars of the Spiritual Beast twitching together. They were currently within the Spiritual Beast Mountain Range, but most cultivators called it the 'Lingshan Mountain'. Various Spiritual Beasts would be encountered here with various classes and levels. Even so, it was very abundant in spiritual herbs stored behind the ferocity of these mountains. For those who are lucky, it is not uncommon to come out of the Lingshan Mountains by pocketing extraordinary wealth, due to getting a bountiful harvest. However, it was not uncommon for one to have to die due to the attack of a High Level Spiritual Beast.

...-------------------------...

An hour after the Qing Shandian group had traveled by jumping and jumping, they had now reached the eastern part of the Lingshan Mountains. They are currently walking down the mountainside.

"Dad, have you been to the Lingshan Mountains often?" Qing Shandian asked curiously.

Qing Yuan turned his head towards his son, then he said, "Yes. Father was quite often here to hunt the Spiritual Beast Core, the Spiritual Potion, as well as the Spiritual Beast itself."

Shut up for a moment, Qing Yuan continued, "Why? Are you curious about the contents of the Lingshan Mountains?"

"Yes. Being in a place like this, it feels so much fun. An'er can also train, gaining combat experience. Who knows An'er got lucky with a thing or two. An'er also wanted to look for the Spiritual Potion. Although now An'er only limited to knowing the name, characteristics, age, aroma and how to harvest potions, at least for moments like this An'er taste it is enough." Qing Shandian replied in an excited tone.

"Haihihah... An'er, aren't you overzealous? Many High-class Spiritual Beasts of the Lingshan Mountains." While giggling, Lin Lianhua replied.

Qing Shandian who heard that only rolled his eyes lazily, then said, "Oh.. Come on, mom, aren't there any moms and dads now? Who knows An'er's luck is very high. Who is not excited about their adventures. Moreover, this was the first time An'er had seen the outside world."

Pausing for a moment, then he continued, "Not only does being a cultivator, An'er also wants to become an alchemist someday. Therefore, An'er would gather as many spiritual herbs as An'er could find."

The three of them talked while walking. Hearing his son's words, Qing Yuan grumbled, "Alchemist? What to be an alchemist. Little Bocal, the requirement of being an alchemist is not easy. If being an alchemist was as easy as people talked about, then they would be like abundant potatoes in the market."

"No, no, no..." Qing Shandian's steps came to a halt. He ignored what his father said. A moment later, Qing Shandian closed his eyes, turning his head in all directions while sniffing around like a wolf, before then he ran off in some direction.

Qing Yuan and Lin Lianhua who were looking at Qing Shandian's mannerisms were stunned for a moment, shaking their heads, before starting to chase after his son. "Little boy, what's up? Didn't your mother tell you, here's a lot...."

"Dad just shut up and follow An'er. We'll harvest soon." Qing Shandian interrupted, even before his father finished speaking.

Qing Yuan and Lin Lianhua looked at each other. The two of them could only shake their heads in ignorance and helplessness.

Five minutes later, after passing through the thick foggy area, they finally reached a valley. Trees are not as big as forest areas. Here, it can be said to be rare, but the view is good. There is a stream, a waterfall, also a small lake. If one did not try to pass through the fog, they would never know, that in fact behind such a thick fog was stored somewhere amazing. The valley is quite wide, with a variety of plants thriving.

Qing Yuan and Lin Lianhua were still in a confused state, also feeling strange. Is this what his son showed?

Qing Shandian looked back, looked at his father and mother, then he said in an excited voice and there was a ray of happiness in the look in his eyes.

"Dad, mother, welcome to the treasure valley... Haha... We will harvest as many spiritual herbs as possible in this valley."

"Spiritual Banquet? The harvest? The treasure valley?... Little boy, don't joke! Isn't this just a beautiful valley?" Qing Yuan said in confusion, he felt strange and unsure of his son's words.

"You guys suck. Why don't you even believe it... Well, since we're here, An'er will show you the treasure." Qing Shandian said with a grunt as he stepped towards a plant.

Swiping his storage ring, Qing Shandian took out a small shovel, then he dug the ground around the plants that were in front of him. After digging, he lifted the plant and cleaned the roots from the soil that was still attached. The plant is seven-leaved, with each strand having a different color, and gives off an intoxicating fragrant aroma.

With a wide smile, Qing Shandian said to his father and mother, "Come closer, father, mother. Ehemm.. This is one of his treasures. This plant is called 'Seven Color Leaf Flower' or it can also be called 'Rainbow Leaf Flower'. Included in the group of High Grade 6 Spiritual Potions, it was used as the main ingredient of the 'Spiritual Perception Enhancement Pill'. That was a High Level 6 Grade Pill, which was useful for improving the spiritual perception of a cultivator."

"What did you say? Increase spiritual perception?" Said Qing Yuan in a shocked tone while holding his son's shoulder tightly after hearing his son's explanation.

"Ah... Dad, do you want to kill me?!" Qing Shandian said as he grimaced in pain due to his father's grip.

"Ohh.. Forgive dad. Dad was too shocked and excited. Speaking of that, little brat, how do you know if it includes the main ingredient of the 'Spiritual Perception Enhancement Pill'? Father had never heard of the pill in the Tianxia Continent."

Turning his eyes bored, Qing Shandian replied, "Of course father will never find this pill in Tianxia Continent. Wasn't the Qing Clan not from this continent? After all, the collection of books in the Klan library was quite a lot. Incidentally, An'er had already read, memorized, and recalled many types of Spiritual Potions from the Spiritual Potion Recognition Book. Now, how's that? Do you and mom believe that this is a treasure valley?"

Lin Lianhua was still shocked as she closed her lips. He was speechless with his son's knowledge. After a long period of silence, Lin Lianhua said seriously, "If it's true what you say, then we will truly be rich with so many Spiritual Herbs here. But I was curious about one thing. If here so many Spiritual Herbs thrive, does that mean...."

"Spiritual Heart!" said Qing Yuan and Lin Lianhua simultaneously.

Hearing their words, Qing Shandian laughed out loud with sparkling eyes, saying, "Hahahaha... How's it? If there really is, isn't this our name for the moon?"

Qing Yuan and Lin Lianhua did not reply, but they closed their eyes and sensed the Spiritual Qi around them. How shocked they were to feel so much a high level of Spiritual Qi density, higher than many places they had ever explored. They looked at each other, then Qing Yuan said in a deep and solemn voice, "Indeed, the flow of Spiritual Qi here is ten times denser than most places I have ever known. It is certain that in this valley there is a High Level Spiritual Urat. It is not impossible also if we are going to find a pile of Spiritual Stones. We better start the harvest soon."

Pausing for a moment, then Qing Yuan continued, "An'er, you will show us which one we will harvest, and how to harvest it. The sooner the better. After that, we will look for the location of the Spiritual Urat. It will be useful for the development of the Clan."

"Alright, follow An'er. An'er would be a great driver... Hehe.." Qing Shandian said like an alchemy senior while chuckling, to the point of making his mother giggle. Qing Yuan who saw his son's behavior only shook his head.

The three of them then walked along. Qing Shandian asked his father, "By the way, did you bring a special box for the storage of spiritual herbs?"

"Yes. Dad always took her. Because before I got to know your mother, I loved adventure, exploring many places." While answering, Qing Yuan's spiritual perception swept out in the storage ring. Then he continued, "After I count, there's still quite a lot in the storage ring. More than 1700 special boxes. If the spiritual herbs we are going to harvest are not of much kind, I guess that will be enough. We can group them with five plants per box. Because the special box that you brought was pretty big on every unit."

Qing Shandian who heard that nodded. He thought, maybe that amount is more than enough. If not enough, come back again.

Moments later, they saw several groups of plants. Qing Shandian pointed to each of the plants and explained, "We'll start from here. Starting from the left of our gaze to the right, the first, it's a type of middle-tier 4th grade spiritual herb, 'Ganoderma Water Cloud Ring', the main ingredient of the 'Wound Healing Pill'. Second, the 'Seven-star Lotus Petal', a high level 5-grade spiritual herb, the main ingredient of the 'Emperor Stage Breaker Pill'. Thirdly, the 'Grey Cloud Moon Flower', a low level 4th grade spiritual herb, the main ingredient of the 'Wound Healing Pill' as well. Fourth, 'Flower Ink Star Petals', low level 3rd grade spiritual herbs, 'Wound Healing Pill' supporting ingredients'. Lastly, this is the most valuable, it just so happens that the number is also very much. 'The Jade Fruit of the Sky Cloud', a high grade 6 spiritual herb, included the main ingredient of the 'Spiritual Qi Gathering Pill', but it could also be directly eaten for Emperor Level cultivators and above.

Qing Shandian paused for a moment then continued with twinkling and excited eyes, "For Ganoderma, father and mother can instantly uproot and clean it. For Ink Flowers, remove the roots. Star Lotus, separate between the petals and the roots, keep them separately. Moon flowers, should be dug up, taken complete with the roots and then cleaned. For the Jade Cloud Sky Fruit, we simply pluck the ripe fruit. Harvest over 500 years old only and do not forget to name each box. I'll go around and harvest the others. Oh.. One more... Dad, give me some of the boxes in particular."

Qing Yuan and Lin Lianhua gawked in surprise. How could a boy of Qing Shandian's age memorize and remember something an adult should be capable of? Shaking helplessly, Qing Yuan took out 500 boxes, giving them to his son. Then he said seriously, "Bring up. Remember, don't go too far. Father was afraid that there was a Spiritual Beast that was good at hiding its aura."

Qing Shandian nodded, storing all the special boxes on his storage ring while saying, "Well, An'er won't go too far." After saying so, he walked away from his parents.
