The white monkey led Sima Yong to a corner of the valley that had small caves. Inside the cave that looks like a melted form of white crystal. The white crystal seemed as if it had not fallen to the ground, but it had become frozen and formed a pointed angle. Among the pointed crystals, there was a liquid dripping into a niche in the rocks on the ground that had a large hole filled with liquid like milk.
“Is this milk a stalactite?” Sima Yong's face turned extremely happy. He carefully dipped his finger and tasted the thick white liquid.
“Truely so.. we are really lucky. This liquid is the milk stalactite” he shouted to four friends who still look to admire the view in the valley
The other four practitioners followed up to Sima Yong who was seen while pouring the stalactite milk into an empty container in the form of a jug. Curiously Hattaudha asked,
“Brother Yong, what liquid is that you're holding??”
Sima Yong patiently explained to his four friends who seemed to be clueless with what he called stalactite milk.
“This white milk is the result of the buildup of natural objects that occur thousands or even tens of thousands of years and form crystals like you see above this cave. However, there are some parts that do not become crystals and then drip to form milk. This is referred to as milk stalactite which serves to help a practitioner to clean the blood and form bone”.
“Even if this milk is used well and cultivated properly, the effect When consuming stalactite milk will help practitioners in the cultivation realm under the Boundless Realm to penetrate its current cultivation. The use of stalactite milk is only allowed once in a lifetime, namely when it is cultivating for breaking”
The faces of the four Sima Yong friends turned radiant. With a face full of hope they looked at the stalactite milk that Sima Yong was harvesting.
“The four of you just be patient. I'm not the kind of person who doesn't appreciate comrades-in-arms. I will divide each of you one bottle of this milk, even if there are many, I will give more to you” Sima Yong said as he continued to harvest Stalactite Milk into jugs for the sake of the shelter.
The four friends were also patiently and aware that, their advantage this time was Sima Yong's big hand. He had managed to kill the Monkey King, so the white ape who was a follower of the ape king, now considered Sima Yong to be their king because the Monkey King's Monster Core was in the hands of Sima Yong. Therefore they patiently waited for Sima Yong to divide the harvest of stalactite milk.
After Sima Yong finally finished harvesting the milk, he divided each team member into 2 jugs of stalactite milk. Sima Yong himself stored seven jugs of stalactite milk into his spatial ring. He still left about two jugs in the shelter hole, because the principle of an alchemist is to harvest enough and still leave the part that belongs to nature itself.
“At the highest I can only consume two jugs of this milk and the rest I will give to Yu Long and Lin Hong later”
After everyone was satisfied with the division of the stalactite milk, Sima Yong said…
“Let's do more exploration in this little valley. I believe this valley is an important part that is the secret of the Forbidden Forest. Perhaps there is still something else that we can harvest” Sima Yong said that and was greeted with enthusiastic smiles of his four friends.
The white ape came back and then bowed and worshipped Sima Yong. The animal then pulls Sima Yong's hand to move to somewhere in the valley that Sima Yong named “White Monkey Valley”.
They walked for about fifteen minutes until they finally arrived at a building shaped more or less like a giant barn. It seemed like the barn was made by the demon Ape army, because its shape was far from the aesthetic form of a building worked by humans or Elves. The White Ape allowed Sima Yong to open a barn that could accommodate up to 5000 humans inside.
When Sima Yong opened the barn, the fragrant aroma of herbs and medicinal plants was sticking out very strongly from within the granary. Sima Yong became very excited and was right. When he entered the barn, he found various piles of herbs and medicines that were the result of drying spirit plants.
Even a lot of dried leaves when used in the real world, is a rare tea that is very expensive. The like was generally only consumed by the emperors of the enormous kingdoms. The average ingredients in the barn are the result of spirit plant plantations whose age has exceeded thousands of years.
“It is expected that we harvest this resource sufficiently. Remember that something too much is not good. And always to leave the part that belongs to nature itself” all his friends understand what Sima Yong meant. Indeed, the average practitioner generally always leaves some things to return to belong to nature itself.
“Verily the Giant Ape is a very rich demon animal. He has so many thousands of years old spirit plants and herbs that are very expensive and needed in the world out there” Sima Yong looks to be entering hundreds of roses aged two thousand years and also thousands the leaves of the 7-thousand-year-old dried Water Dragon Plant into the spatial ring.
Then Sima Yong said to Hattaudha,
“Brother Hattaudha.. don't you want your weapon fitted with the Petrify Inscription Symbol??”
Hattaudha with a surprised and longing gaze looked at Sima Yong from a distance as he said,
“It's true sudara Yong. You know full well that I'm dreaming of having. But you know, don't you? 5 strands of Medussa Hair and ancient Dragon scales is a very rare and impossible thing I have”
“Hahaha…. Know you??? These things in my hand can replace the function of medussa hair and
those ancient dragon scales??? Well although not as strong as a spell if using the original material, but this is very adequate” Sima Yong mocked Hattaudha while laughing mockingly. He showed the stems of a thousand year old blue rose plant and the leaves of a 5 thousand year old water dragon. Inside the ring was a similar material that was even older than the thing in his hand.
“Really???”
Judade jumped from the place where she was busy gathering resources, and ran towards Sima Yong. Niryadi was also seen looking away curiously. While Ye Bing Qing and Tang Yuwen looked at Sima Yong with curiosity. They don't understand what symbols are and what petrify is. The God Filtration Continent did not recognize the existence of the Symbol Master profession as in the Silver Continent so the conversation about it was very new to them.
Nevertheless they approached Sima Yong to listen to what the symbol meant and what petrify meant. When you hear that Symbol is a technique of planting magic inscriptions in weapons that ultimately cause a petrifying effect (rigid) for seven to ten seconds in a battle… unabashedly the two volunteered to be written the Inscription Symbol on their Weapon.
Of course Niryadi had already expressed his desire to make the Inscription Symbol in his Pair of Short Swords. Sima Yong proposed certain conditions as compensation for his work writing symbols later, because after all it is a high profession that must be compensated after the expert made a masterpiece such as the Petrify Symbol.
Each of them charged 2500 medium Blue Manna (venti) after they later obtained a Monster Core Demon King rank demon. The Forbidden Forest itself was a fertile land where demon beasts of various classes gathered. They would hunt the Monstrous King Realm-ranked core monsters to write down the Petrify Inscription Symbol.

“Come Back we explore the whole valley. There are still many other secret things waiting for us to harvest” Sima Yong laughed happily after finishing harvesting the resources in the granary, then he closed the granary. The white ape was still pulling his hand towards somewhere else within the valley.
Sima Yong said to the white ape,
“Tell to your friends. From now on I am the ruler of this valley.the activity of gathering resources is still done and always to be collected in the granary. I made you a kind of elder who governs and takes care of this valley”
The white ape spoke in a strange language, yet he seemed to understand while nodding his head. Sima Yong was satisfied.
“And this is.....?” a small milky-white pond that spewed water vapors appeared before his eyes when Sima Yong finally arrived at the far side of the pond that the white ape pointed to…..
