The hidden room that Maiko found was right under the room where the president of Hygieia Valley
lived. It was very well hidden as the entrance was right under a bed. They had to move the bed away
and flip over the floorboards to be able to enter.
If it werenât for Maikoâs ability to pass through objects, no average human would be able to find it.
As soon as they entered the room, Alex could make out the scent of quite a few rare medicinal herbs.
Extremely overjoyed by this, his eyes lit up.
âThis is a black reishi!â
âThatâs goblin weed!â
âOh my god, this is unreal⦠I think this is the nine-tailed dragon flowerâ¦â
Alex started describing each rare herb that was in the room. He then opened the purse in a hurry and
stuffed the herbs into it He would be restless until he managed to get each and every one of them.
Luna walked into the room, barefooted like a model. She paced around the room since she wasnât
familiar with herbs, nor was she interested in them. After noticing a bookshelf in the corner filled with
hundreds of books, she walked over.
Alex, on the other hand, was getting more and more excited as he continued to collect the herbs.
âThis is what we call a treasury!â
He currently lacked such large amounts of rare herbs to make pills. For example, he hadnât been able
to find the materials to make the healing pill that he promised Holly for months, yet all of them could be
found here. He planned on making the pill as soon as he got home, figuring that the little girl would be
overjoyed if he did so.
Some of the herbs were even more precious than most. They were of higher quality, after all. He didnât
have any use for them for now, so he had to wait till he was of a higher cultivation rank.
Despite this, he still couldnât seem to find any Dragon Blood Vines.
âThe storage purse really came just in time, else, I wouldnât have been able to take this many things
with just my hands!â Alex mumbled under his breath after collecting almost all the herbs.
He left the common ones in the room since he was too lazy to collect anymore. His purse didnât have
enough space for them as well.
His eyes were now filled with warmth and gentleness as he turned to look at Luna.
âWhat are you looking at?â He approached her and asked.
Luna replied, âThese books are related to alchemy. Do you want them?â
Alex took one and flipped through the pages. There was nothing special about them.
Compared to the Ultimate Book of Medicine stored in his mind, these books didnât matter to him.
However, he didnât know if such information was included in the legacies of the Immortal Doctor, hence
he picked out a few valuable books for Cheryl and stuffed them into the purse as well.
âHuh, whatâs this? Itâs so heavy.â
At the corner of the bookshelf was a small log, seemingly being used as paperweight instead. It was
charcoal black, and it looked like a rock that was the size of a fist. It felt quite heavy as well,
approximately thirty kilograms, which was considered heavier than most metal.
âWhat log is this?â
âI donât know, donât ask me. â
Alex used his spiritual conscience and tested it on this log, yet he realized that he couldnât enter it at all.
It didnât seem to be spiritual either.
Just as Alex was about to throw it aside, the Chaos Bead within his mind palace started to rumble.
Following that, it started to shake hysterically, bumping all over the place.
âWhatâs happening?â Ales was stunned.
The Chaos Bead seemed like it would kill him as soon as he put the log down. It felt like it was trying to
shatter his soul.
âThe Chaos Bead wants this log. But why?â
No matter what the reason was, Alex figured that he had to keep this in his possession for now. The
bead stopped making a ruckus after he placed it into the purse as well.
He made his own assumptions.
âThis must be an extraordinary log.â
After quite a while, the two left after confirming that they didnât miss any other valuable items.
Just then, Alex realized that Alcina had brought some people along with her and was waiting outside
the door.
âMiss Bela, is there anything I can help you with?â Alex asked.
Alcina smiled awkwardly. âMaster Rockefeller, Iâll be frank with you. We, the members of Floral Valley
are here for the Spiritual Valley Token. The Spiritual Valley Dungeon opens once every three years.
Weâve been there a few times in the past, so we know that quite a few herbs are in there. We urgently
need some right now. So could you please spare us a few?â
Alex asked, âOh? What herbs?â
