I Have Medicine

Chapter 537 - (Heaven Lord’s Private Vault) … It’s better to take a good look and choose carefully.

Blue Gemstone Crystal, Sky Crevice, Golden Child Immortal Fruit, Flying Cloud Sand, Dragon Heart Fruit, and spirit armors and weapons with eighty percent spiritual resonance…

Gu Zuo looked around, realizing that the treasures in the private vault of a Cosmic Realm expert far surpassed anything that a Royal Realm martial artist could possess. Many of the items were completely unfamiliar to him—like shards of stone, roots of plants, and withered branches—yet he could sense the powerful energy contained within, suggesting that these items held unique value. Even if the Blood Transformation Heaven Lord didn’t fully understand them, he still deemed them significant enough to store here.

The Blood Transformation Palace Master had visited this vault many times, but he always felt a renewed sense of awe. His father had only this one son after thousands of years, and by then, his father had already reached the Cosmic Realm for over two thousand years. At that time, the younger generation of Blood Transformation Palace was not exceptional enough to assume leadership, while others of his father’s generation had long since become elders, fully focused on breaking through the Cosmic Realm. So, the Blood Transformation Heaven Lord temporarily took on the role of Palace Master. Aside from overseeing the palace, the Blood Transformation Heaven Lord often journeyed across lands, earning the palace its formidable reputation through his own prowess, amassing an incredible variety of treasures along the way.

It was also because of this that the Blood Transformation Palace Master felt that as long as his father opened the private vault and allowed his apprentice to enter and choose, he would not lose face as the master.…

Seeing the expressions of surprise on Gu Zuo’s and Gongyi Tianheng’s faces, the Blood Transformation Palace Master was pleased. “Choose for yourselves; I won’t interfere.”

Gongyi Tianheng and Gu Zuo both said:

“Yes, Master.”

“Thank you, Palace Master.”

Then, the two of them walked forward.

Gongyi Tianheng walked alongside Gu Zuo and gently asked, “Have you found anything you like, Ah Zuo?”

Gu Zuo lightly coughed and replied, “I plan to take a closer look.”

Gongyi Tianheng smiled and said, “Then make sure to choose carefully.”

Gu Zuo rubbed his face with his hand.

To be honest, he had initially been curious, just wanting to see what was available. Now, however, he was dazzled by the options, realizing that he definitely shouldn’t miss this opportunity.

He then nudged Gongyi Tianheng. “Big Brother, you should hurry and pick something too.”

Gongyi Tianheng raised an eyebrow, then pinched Gu Zuo’s cheek before heading off in a different direction.

Gu Zuo felt a slight warmth on his face and turned away.

He knew that if his big brother stayed by his side, his big brother would be overly concerned about helping him choose, so it was better to separate for now.

Next, Gu Zuo began examining the items one by one.

As a pharmacist, he was primarily focused on the medicinal materials. At this moment, the highest spiritual resonance wasn’t as important; what mattered was rarity.

The Blood Transformation Heaven Lord had spent many years killing and accumulating a vast collection! Among all those he had slain, how many didn’t possess some fortunate encounters? And among those with such encounters, who could say they couldn’t find something that others didn’t have?

Before long, Gu Zuo indeed found a spiritual herb he had only seen in pharmacy formulas but had never encountered either in the Ten Ultimates Sect or while purchasing materials outside. It was called “Thunder Seed.”

At that moment, he spotted it in the private vault of the Blood Transformation Heaven Lord.

The primary function of Thunder Seed was to greatly nourish and refine a warrior’s physical body. Once refined into Thunder Spirit Pills, it could even double a warrior’s ability to endure the lightning tribulation when breaking through from the Royal Realm to the Cosmic Realm.

That’s right—it’s important to understand that the reason there are many warriors in the Royal Realm but very few in the Cosmic Realm is that, during the transition, warriors must face a test of heavenly tribulation, as they are encountering powers on another level.

Heavenly tribulation refers to the lightning tribulation, the tribulations sent down by the heavens, which are not easy to pass. Even warriors who inherently possess attributes related to thunder face immense pressure during this challenge, let alone ordinary warriors.

Gu Zuo wanted to obtain Thunder Seed primarily for his big brother—who knows if the Tiandu Body would suffer any unforeseen mishaps during a tribulation! Secondly, there was the Blood Transformation Palace Master… In reality, it was the needs of the Palace Master that were most pressing. It was rare for his big brother to have such a protective and understanding master. Even though the Palace Master himself was extraordinarily talented, it would be a tremendous loss if he were to fall during the lightning tribulation. Of course, Gu Zuo wasn’t implying that the Blood Transformation Palace Master couldn’t overcome the tribulation on his own, but having an extra assurance would be even better.

Initially, Gu Zuo was anxious, thinking he needed to increase his search efforts, but unexpectedly, he found it directly in the private vault of the Blood Transformation Heaven Lord, which felt like fate.

Without hesitation, Gu Zuo took down the Thunder Seed.

Thunder Seed was extremely rare; when it appeared, it typically had about sixty percent spirituality. It was roughly the size of a fist and incredibly solid. To use it, one would need a special spiritual dagger to gradually peel off the powder, which would then be refined together with other herbs. This process required precise control; even a small amount wasted would be a significant loss.

Gu Zuo shook his head, storing away the Thunder Seed, and went to look for the second item.

For the second item, he intended to find a type of ore that could be refined into a innate spiritual weapon. His big brother had already nurtured his incarnation, so it was time to refine a innate spiritual weapon. This would inevitably enhance his strength further.

The Heaven Lord was indeed worthy of the title; Gu Zuo completed this task smoothly.

On the second shelf ahead, he found a Sunstone, which was composed of the purest essence of the sun. It was perfectly suited to his big brother’s celestial energy sea.

Delighted, Gu Zuo collected the Sunstone and leisurely walked toward the other shelves.

Having obtained the two items he most desired, he now focused on finding something that truly appealed to him or caught his eye. He would take whatever he found most appealing.

Before long, Gu Zuo came across a poisonous herb that he found particularly delightful, and he made it his third selected item.

After finishing his selections, Gu Zuo felt refreshed and went to find his big brother.

Gongyi Tianheng wasn’t slow either and was already waiting ahead by the many shelves.

Gu Zuo jogged over and barely came to a stop in front of Gongyi Tianheng. “Big Brother, I’ve made my selections. What did you pick?”

Gongyi Tianheng smiled slightly. “What did Ah Zuo choose?”

Gu Zuo grinned. “You tell me first.”

Gongyi Tianheng ruffled his hair and took out a few items: “Spirit Mud, Dragon Heart Flowing Cloud Root, and Life-Replacing Puppet.”

Gu Zuo blinked.

It was clear that the Spirit Mud was for refining a innate spiritual weapon, the Dragon Heart Flowing Cloud Root was for him, and the Life-Replacing Puppet… this item could perfectly replace the life of a martial artist from the Atomic Realm to the Celestial Realm without any side effects, far superior to the Life-Replacing Desolate Pearl.

Both he and his big brother could use this item, but Gu Zuo knew it was still a swap for him since, as a pharmacist, he was indeed at greater risk of dying.

Suddenly, Gu Zuo felt a bit defeated.

He quietly pressed the Sunstone into his big brother’s hand. “I only picked this one.”

Seeing that he couldn’t help but be distracted by the medicinal herbs… Ah, his big brother should understand. The reason he had wanted to separate earlier was to allow his big brother to focus on his own choices instead of always thinking about him…

Gongyi Tianheng found his demeanor amusing. “Could it be that Ah Zuo thinks I don’t know the purpose of the Thunder Seed?”

Hearing this, Gu Zuo silently bumped his forehead against his big brother’s shoulder.
