Chapter 2269 - 2261: Smash Him to Pieces with a Hammer

The spiritual liquid that can rapidly promote the hatching of a Holy Beast Egg requires all sorts of precious spiritual medicines from the Holy Land. The price is not low, and Huang Xiaolong spent nearly two hundred million Holy Currency in total.

The robbers who were secretly eyeing Huang Xiaolong saw that not only was he not a small fat sheep, but he was actually a super fat sheep. This made their hearts burn with excitement, and they would have made a move long ago if not for the many people in the trade market.

"Still missing a root of the Nine Dragon Vine!" After spending nearly two hundred million Holy Currency, Huang Xiaolong checked his spiritual medicine materials and found that he was only missing the last main ingredient, the Nine Dragon Vine Root.

This Nine Dragon Vine Root is a Fifth Grade Heavenly Earth Spiritual Medicine, but it is rarer than many Fifth Grade Heavenly Earth Spiritual Medicines.

Huang Xiaolong visited over a dozen large trade markets in succession, yet did not find this Nine Dragon Vine Root. Just when he was about to give up and head back, he suddenly stopped in front of the entrance of a Chamber of Commerce named "True Treasure Pavilion."

Inside the great hall of this True Treasure Pavilion, in a central position, there was a spiritual medicine shaped like an octopus, with nine roots entirely pale jade white.

Nine Dragon Vine Root!

Huang Xiaolong’s face brightened, and he immediately stepped into the great hall of the True Treasure Pavilion, coming right in front of the Nine Dragon Vine Root.

This Nine Dragon Vine Root was as tall as two people, each root as thick as a person’s thigh, with blood-red spiritual energy flowing throughout its body, resembling blood vessels. This blood-red spiritual energy was a type of Holy Spirit Energy.

Spiritual medicines of Fourth Grade are Middle Grade. Some Heavenly Earth Spiritual Medicines above Middle Grade possess Holy Spirit Energy, and those that do are even rarer. Naturally, the prices are more astonishing as well.

"Young Master, this Fifth Grade Nine Dragon Vine Root just arrived at our Vast Sea Sub Pavilion of the True Treasure Pavilion a couple of days ago." At this moment, a middle-aged man looking like a steward from the Chamber of Commerce approached Huang Xiaolong and explained with a smile, "After our appraiser’s evaluation, this Fifth Grade Nine Dragon Vine Root has been forming for over a hundred billion years, and the Holy Spirit Energy contained within it is extremely dense."

The other party was about to continue explaining when Huang Xiaolong interrupted, "How much?"

The other person was taken aback, then smiled, "Due to the rarity of this Fifth Grade Nine Dragon Vine Root, the price is a bit high, five hundred million Holy Currency. Moreover, this price was personally set by the sub-pavilion master, and we cannot change it. However, if Young Master intends to purchase it, we can gift you a bottle of Third Grade Heavenly Earth Elixir for free."

Huang Xiaolong nodded secretly.

Although five hundred million is a bit much, a Fifth Grade Nine Dragon Vine Root possessing Holy Spirit Energy is indeed worth this price.

As for the Third Grade Heavenly Earth Elixir being gifted for free, Huang Xiaolong didn’t mind, as he couldn’t even finish using his Fifth Grade Heavenly Earth Elixirs right now.

"Please pack up this Fifth Grade Nine Dragon Vine Root for me," Huang Xiaolong said, handing a Space Ring to the other party as he finished speaking, "Here’s the five hundred million Holy Currency."

The Chamber of Commerce steward stared blankly at the mountain of five hundred million Holy Currency inside the Space Ring.

"Very well, please wait a moment, Young Master!" The steward quickly came to his senses, enthusiastically smiling broadly, "I will package this Fifth Grade Nine Dragon Vine Root for you right now!"

After finishing, he personally packaged the Fifth Grade Nine Dragon Vine Root for Huang Xiaolong. When packaging a Heavenly Earth Spiritual Medicine that possesses Holy Spirit Energy, a special method must generally be used; otherwise, losing even a wisp of Holy Spirit Energy would be a great loss.

Under the steward’s skilled packaging, the Nine Dragon Vine Root was soon placed inside a specially made large jade box.

This large jade box, made from Warm Yang Jade, alone is quite valuable.

The Chamber of Commerce steward personally handed the Nine Dragon Vine Root to Huang Xiaolong, then with a smile, invited Huang Xiaolong to freely choose a bottle of Third Grade Heavenly Earth Elixir from the great hall.

After securing the Nine Dragon Vine Root and selecting a Third Grade Heavenly Earth Elixir, Huang Xiaolong did not linger any longer at the True Treasure Pavilion. He left, retracing his path back, planning to depart from Spirit Fire Island and return to the Holy Sect Headquarters.

However, Huang Xiaolong had just left the True Treasure Pavilion when a group of people entered the pavilion.

Seeing the attire of this group of people, the True Treasure Pavilion steward and all the powerful individuals within the great hall turned pale.

"Central Sacred Dynasty!"

"Jiang Family!"

The newcomers were unexpectedly imperial descendants of the Central Sacred Dynasty and disciples of the Jiang Family.

The Central Sacred Dynasty is the foremost dynasty of the Central Sacred Continent and the top dynasty of the Zhuoyuan Sacred Land, unrivaled. The strength and influence of the Central Sacred Dynasty are far beyond that of the Biluo Dynasty, where Huang Xiaolong stayed, or the Supreme Sect like the Nine Heavens Sect.

The Central Sacred Dynasty is like a giant tree and a giant elephant, while the Biluo Dynasty and Nine Heavens Sect are like ants.

Although the Central Sacred Dynasty is a dynasty under the jurisdiction of the Zhuoyuan Saint Sect, there are times when even the Zhuoyuan Saint Sect must respect and rely on the Central Sacred Dynasty.

This shows the immense power of the Central Sacred Dynasty.

And the Jiang Family is the number one family of the Central Sacred Dynasty! It is also the top family in the entire Holy Land, without exception!

The head Saint Heir of the Holy Sect, Jiang Tian, comes from this Jiang Family!

The Jiang Family is full of talent and consistently produces genius disciples. In the Holy Land, having even one Holy Sect Disciple is an incredible honor for some Supreme Sects or families. However, the Jiang Family has had hundreds of disciples join the Holy Sect over the years, with some even becoming high-level deacons of major halls or hall masters of side halls within the Holy Sect.

This illustrates the influence of the Jiang Family.

Jiang Tian’s support from the Jiang Family is also the reason why the Holy Alliance is so powerful within the Holy Sect.

"Who’s in charge here?" After entering, a Jiang Family disciple spoke arrogantly, clearly the leader of this group of Jiang Family disciples.

"I, I am." The steward who had previously sold the Nine Dragon Vine Root to Huang Xiaolong quickly came over, respectfully and fearfully saying, "I don’t know what orders the Young Master of the Jiang Family has?"

The Jiang Family disciple said, "I heard that your True Treasure Pavilion recently acquired a Fifth Grade Nine Dragon Vine Root, which possesses Holy Spirit Energy. Is that correct?"

This made the steward’s heart tighten, and he hesitated for a moment but eventually answered truthfully, "Young Master of the Jiang Family, our True Treasure Pavilion did indeed recently receive a Fifth Grade Nine Dragon Vine Root with Holy Spirit Energy, but it was just purchased by someone!"

"What?!" The disciples of the Central Sacred Dynasty and the Jiang Family were surprised.

The Jiang Family disciple frowned, "Just purchased?"

He had come to Spirit Fire City specifically for this Nine Dragon Vine Root. In a few days, it would be the five hundred billionth birthday celebration of the Jiang Family’s Old Master. He was planning to purchase this Nine Dragon Vine Root as a tribute, but unexpectedly, it was already sold!

This Nine Dragon Vine Root is extremely rare and difficult to find. He has been inquiring about it for several years.

"Yes, just now." The steward nodded.

"Tell me, who bought that Fifth Grade Nine Dragon Vine Root?!" Another hot-tempered Jiang Family disciple angrily demanded, "Damn it, we’ve been searching for this Nine Dragon Vine Root for years. As soon as we heard you have it, someone else snatched it up, and now I’m going to chase that person down and smash them to bits!"
