Chapter 28 – Spiritual Spring

Chapter 28 Spiritual Spring

Zhao Aiguo stopped thinking about it and swallowed the glass piece.

All of a sudden, he felt as if he was soaking in a hot spring. It was warm and comfortable, and the feeling it gave him was worlds apart from the Starflower Pill from before.

When he walked out of his comfort zone, the internal injuries he suffered had already been completely healed. He was pleasantly surprised to discover that not only had this glass bead healed his internal injuries, but it had also healed the hidden injuries in his body.

He was in a very energetic state as if he had become ten years younger.

“The effect is really good.” Wang Yuande smacked his lips.

Naturally, he could tell that Zhao Aiguo was completely fine. In fact, it was a blessing in disguise and he had completely stabilized his cultivation at the Connate Realm. This Liu Li’zi was truly a divine medicine.

Wang Yuande hesitated for a moment and was just about to say something when Zhang Gu interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

“The rats have been beaten back. We should strike while the iron is hot and rush up to prevent any mishaps.”

Wang Yuande and Zhao Aiguo looked in front of them. As expected, the waves of rats were either dead or fleeing. Not a single rat dared to charge in their direction anymore.

At this distance from the mountain peak to the base, the ground was filled with the corpses of ferocious rats. They were badly mutilated and the stench was overwhelming.

Fortunately, none of them were normal people, so they could still endure such a foul-smelling scene. Under Zhang Gu’s orders, everyone quickly moved forward and rushed into the mountains.

There were still a few ferocious rats in the mountains that didn’t flee. Perhaps they were hoping for a fluke, or perhaps there was something in the mountains that made them reluctant to leave.

With such a small number of rats, they didn’t pose any threat to the team and were eliminated very quickly. Even if some of them used sneak attacks from the caves, they would be discovered by the martial artists guarding the soldiers and killed immediately.

The cultivation levels of this batch of martial artists from the Supernatural Supervision Bureau was either peak Innate martial artists or close to the peak. Moreover, their strength wasn’t ordinary. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to seize such a good opportunity.

After cleaning up the rats, he began to search the forest.

Very soon, Zhang Gu and the others discovered their target.

In the depths of the forest, there was a clear pool that was surrounded by spiritual plants. These spiritual plants belonged to the same species. “Body Refining Grass!”

Zhang Gu exclaimed when he saw this spiritual plant.

There were so many Body Refining Grasses that his eyes almost popped out.

This kind of spiritual plant could greatly increase the strength of one’s body, saving them a long time of tempering their bodies. It was very valuable. However, after carefully observing the growth of the Body Refining Grass, Zhang Gu’s heart ached so much that he almost suffocated.

“These b*stards!”

For the vast majority of Body Refining Grass, regardless of whether they had matured or not, there were dense and fine teeth marks on them. Other than some Body Refining Grasses in the center that had been perfectly preserved, the rest were basically just roots.

In some places, there was only a small hole left. Clearly, even the roots had been eaten.

“No wonder these rats became fierce beasts.”

When Wang Yuande saw this scene, he also sighed regretfully.

Body Refining Grass was extremely valuable to fierce beasts that cultivated the physique. An ordinary rat could transform into a fierce beast with a casual bite.

There were many animal bones near the well-preserved Body Refining Grass. There was also a piece of yellow tiger skin that was covered in faint golden rat fur. The rat king must have been sitting here for a long time.

These intact Body Refining Grass were probably saved for him by the rat king.

“Battalion Commander, we’ve struck it rich.”

While Zhang Gu’s lips twitched as he scolded the rats, a soldier walked to his side and spoke excitedly.

“Send? Send my ass. So many Body Refining Grass have been harmed to such a state. How can this be considered sending them?” Zhang Gu couldn’t help but curse.

“Battalion Commander, I’m not talking about Body Refining Grass. This spring water, this spring water is spiritual spring water!”

“Spiritual Spring?!”

Hearing this word, Zhang Gu’s eyes turned green. He grabbed the soldier’s collar. “Spiritual spring? Is it really a spiritual spring? Kid, you didn’t trick me?”

“I just tested it. It really is.”

Zhang Gu let go of the soldier and rushed to the spring.

The spring water was so clear that one could see the bottom. Several strands of rat fur floated on the water, and there were no living creatures underwater. One could clearly see the dense amount of rat feces and stones underwater.

There was a gentle mist floating above the spring water. When Zhang Gu first saw it, he thought that it was an ordinary mist. However, after hearing what his subordinate said, he realized that this was a small amount of spiritual energy that was dissipating above the spring water. “I’m rich, rich, really rich.”

Zhang Gu looked at the test report in his hand and muttered to himself.

This time around, they had brought along a simple spiritual energy detection device that could detect the amount of spiritual energy in an item. In this stretch of spring water in front of them, any drop contained a certain amount of spiritual energy.

Zhang Gu suddenly turned his head and looked at Wang Yuande, who was also dumbfounded. “Our Baishan City is going to soar.”

“To extremely high heights!”

“Quick, clean up the scene and report immediately.” Wang Yuande urged, reacting immediately.

“Right, right, right. I’ll report it immediately.” Zhang Gu calmed down from his ecstasy and quickly reported it to his superior.

“Chief, what is a spiritual spring? Is it very important?”

Zhao Aiguo was a little puzzled. He seemed to have never seen any information or introduction regarding the spiritual spring.

However, when the director and Battalion Commander Zhang saw how flustered they were after seeing the spirit spring, even if they didn’t say it explicitly, he could already guess the importance of the spiritual spring.

UTIC

Wang Yuande looked at Zhao Aiguo and then at the surrounding martial artists from the Supernatural Supervision Bureau who were watching the show. He didn’t answer directly but gathered everyone together.

“This place will be taken over by the military and the provincial research institute later. You will be rewarded accordingly, but everything you see on the mountain must be kept a secret. Once it is violated, the consequences will be very serious.” “Yes.” The martial artists nodded. From the reactions of the two leaders, they could tell the importance of this matter.

In any case, he would get all the benefits he needed, so there was no harm in keeping some secrets.

“All of you can come to my place to sign a confidentiality agreement.” After Zhang Gu finished his report, he borrowed some simple equipment to make some paper documents.

In modern warfare, the logistics department really had everything.

Everyone went forward to sign. Zhao Aiguo also went up to sign a copy. After signing, he was called to the side by Wang Yuande.

“The spiritual spring is a state secret and a strategic resource. It’s normal that you didn’t know it before.”

Strategic resources! Zhao Aiguo’s heart stirred. No wonder Battalion Commander Zhang took this matter so seriously. “Since it’s a secret, I won’t blindly ask around.”

“It’s fine.” Wang Yuande smiled and shook his head. “I can’t tell the others, but it’s fine if I tell you.”

“Because…” Zhao Aiguo was just about to ask the reason when he suddenly recalled that he was indeed different from the others now.

He was a Connate Realm martial artist!

They were the only two Connate Realm martial artists in Baishan City!

“That’s right, your guess is very correct. The spiritual spring is a strategic resource, and Connate martial artists are also strategic talents in our country. You will slowly come into contact with these things in the future. I’m just telling you in advance.”
