The Genius Wife of the Pampered King of Hell
Chapter 139 – New Harvest
Follow before you read, guys!!! 😠👊
“The Xumi Palace, also known as the Shen Mantuo House, was created by a Taoist Xumi using a myriad of spiritual objects of the world. Refined over the years, it has now become a divine artifact. From the very beginning, when the continents of Mi Luo and Xian Luo were formed, there were rumors circulating. This rumor says that whoever owns Xumi Palace acquires the heavenly law, and whoever acquires the heavenly law, will rule the entire land under the heavens. Therefore, the person who inherits this divine artifact must be a descendant of the god bloodline. They must have good thoughts and generosity towards the general public, otherwise, they will be swallowed up entirely by the heavenly law itself.”
“Xumi Palace is divided into nine palaces and eighty-one doors, the nine palaces are; Spirit Horizon, Black Horizon, Green Horizon, Blue Horizon, Red Horizon, Jade Horizon, Sky Horizon, The Highest Horizon, and the Divine Horizon. Each palace has nine doors, and each of the nine doors has a specific location. But if nine doors open simultaneously, a formation will be activated and those nine doors will disappear, and turn into castles.”
Hexi continued reading, discovering that other than storing treasures in the Firmament Spirit Palace, the greatest feature here was the stagnation of time. Of course the stagnation of time like this is only useful for storing food because it cannot be used to grow crops, so its function is only to maintain the freshness of food.
When Hexi went to look at the information detailing the other palaces, he found that the text was covered by a layer of white mist, causing it to be unreadable. It seemed that the information could only be read after the palace was opened.
Moreover, when viewed from the meaning of this guide, it turns out that each palace has a different purpose. Within each palace there might be more treasures hidden, so after all the palaces were opened, there would be a large sum of money, enough to make one extremely rich.
Unsatisfied with the lack of information, Hexi put down the guide and took out the rest of the jade.
In these four jade slips, three contained the same type of content; it was an ancient record of the Taoist Xumi, called the Note of All Living Beings. The Records of All Living Beings are divided into sections documenting spiritual herbs, spiritual beasts, and spiritual equipment. Everything that the Taoists of Xumi have seen throughout their lives is described in rather than vague details, each characteristic, as well as the location where they can be found, he said, documented very carefully. It included information on all kinds of rare treasures, rare birds, and unusual ferocious beasts, there was even a clear picture of every single thing accompanying the jade slip.
Isn't the Record of All Living Beings like the Summary version of Materia Medica[1]? Hexi was afraid that because she herself was a beginner in this different world, she would not be able to recognize or understand anything and be considered a hick. Now he doesn't have to worry!
[1] Materia Medica \= Latin for Medical Materials. This refers to a collection of medical books. For more info
Noted on the final jade slip was the knowledge of how to refine pills, written by Old Man Xumi himself. Called the Overflowing Cauldron Pill Sacred Scripture, that listed the recipe for each type of precious pill.
In his previous life, Hexi was known as an accomplished doctor with excellent medical skills, so when he arrived at this strange cultivation world, he naturally wanted to learn how to cultivate pills. But unfortunately in the Mi Luo continent, becoming a doctor was a rare profession. The art of pill refining was secretly passed down between family members, or between teachers and disciples. If you could find a book on pill refining in the market, which explained its basic foundation, it would be worth it.
Yet here was found a jade slip regarding pill refining, which listed in detail all kinds of medicinal ingredients and prescription combinations. A combination detailing the selection and use, how to pair them, conflicting drugs, and even how to fine-tune the fire and temperature-regulating attributes. So as soon as Hexi saw this, she exclaimed in excitement.
“Mother, I'm hungry. How about you bake this egg for me to eat?”
Hexi, who was immersed in the Overflowing Cauldron Pill Sacred Scripture, released herself reluctantly as Dandan's excited voice reached her ears.
Hexi turned her head in surprise, and seeing Dandan holding something round, she could not stop the formation of a black line on her forehead. Isn't that the nameless egg from one of the jade boxes?
“You are not allowed to eat it! I'm going out now looking for food for you, so be nice and take good care of that egg for me. If you dare to eat the eggs, never think of eating anything again later!”
