Royal Capital.
Marquis Mansion.
Returning to his residence, Jiang Ning went straight to his courtyard.
At this moment, the sun was near its zenith, and the scorching sunlight poured down on the earth, as if summer had arrived, with a frightfully high temperature.
Jiang Ning returned to the courtyard and hung the Ten Domains Patrol Angel token from his waist on the corner of the pavilion’s eaves, allowing it to be illuminated by the Great Sun.
Afterward, he came under the evergreen ancient pine, not to check the four boxes of recovered resources first, but to close his eyes and concentrate, feeling the incessant flow of Qi-Blood within.
As well as the quietly floating Dao embryo in the Spirit Platform, with Yin Yang Mysterious Light flowing around it.
Though the battle with the Dragon Head of the Eighteen Dragon Heads was merely a test of physical strength, it made him truly feel what a genuine Martial Arts First Grade was.
Even though this Dragon Head had not been in the First Grade for long, it still brought him immense pressure.
The strength, as overwhelming as a mountain tumble or ocean surge, far surpassed any formidable opponent he had encountered before.
This battle made him much more modest about underestimating the heroes of the world.
The Dragon Head had not been in the First Grade for long, yet had such power and foundation, what about other strong ones?
Though he knew that the Dragon Head’s strength couldn’t be measured by normal circumstances, given the Dragon Head’s fortune.
But those who rise from millions of lifelings to Martial Arts First Grade, who doesn’t possess some fortune?
He pondered for a moment, then opened his eyes, raising his hand.
A flash of brilliance ensued.
Four large ironwood boxes, a brocade box, and a jade bottle appeared on the green stone ground in the courtyard.
He first picked up the brocade box.
Made from hundred-year-old sandalwood, the brocade box felt warm, with a faint woody fragrance.
Opening the lid, a fist-sized, red-orangey, lustrous Mystic Heart Fruit lay quietly on the velvet cushion.
The fruit’s skin was smooth as the finest glaze, with a swirling misty red light inside, emanating a refreshing, unique aroma.
Inhaling just a trace, he felt a clear heart and mind, and a refreshing sensation throughout his body.
"A five-hundred-year Mystic Heart Fruit, a rare treasure that strengthens the foundation, washes the meridians, and enhances the Qi-Blood base. For my current body, the benefit may not be earth-shattering. But it is gentle and mellow, solidifying the foundation," Jiang Ning mused silently.
Then, he didn’t consume it immediately but placed the brocade box aside and picked up the seemingly ordinary blue-white jade bottle.
At the moment the stopper was pulled.
Buzz!
An indescribably pure and dense Spiritual Energy burst forth, instantly filling the small space.
He observed faint mists quickly condensing around, and as the mist dispersed, the surrounding flowers and plants spread their leaves visibly, shaking gently.
The vigorous ancient pine behind wavered slightly, making a joyful rustling sound, greedily absorbing this unexpected nourishment.
Jiang Ning took a deep breath, feeling the Spiritual Energy surge through the nasal cavity, rushing to his limbs, with his pores opening up naturally, and the originally flowing Qi-Blood expressing a longing roar.
That was a yearning from the body’s instincts.
It was a vital supplement the body needed.
Inside the jade bottle, three thumb-sized, milk-white, semi-transparent, slightly rippling droplets rolled on the bottom.
This was the three thousand-year Spiritual Marrow!
Each drop condensed the purest essence of the Spirit Veins deep within the earth.
After three thousand years of sedimentation, they contained abundant vitality and fundamental energy, true top-tier Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
At this moment, he recalled the Dragon Head’s words.
Refining muscles and bones, enhancing physique, strengthening Qi-Blood, nurturing Dantian, nourishing Divine Soul, increasing Divine Power.
Among these effects, the last four words particularly attracted him.
Because reaching this point, the increase in Divine Power had always been a hindrance.
He had never heard of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that increased Divine Power.
Nor was there any documentation in the books.
But he did not doubt the words of the Dragon Head.
Because the strength of the Dragon Head was extraordinary.
Despite not being in First Grade long, the Dragon Head was exceptionally strong.
There must be some fortune involved.
And this three-thousand-year Spiritual Marrow was likely the fortune the Dragon Head obtained.
These three drops of Spiritual Marrow were what the Dragon Head left.
Regarding the lack of records of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures for increasing Divine Power, he understood.
Divine Power is a force accessible only at the Martial Arts First Grade Unity Realm.
It is unknown to the public.
The prosperity of Martial Arts is merely about a thousand years old, lacking a long-lasting heritage, so it’s normal that the books lack such records.
Past Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, whether they could increase Divine Power, required trial by Unity Realm experts.
The experience from such trials is hard to pass down.
[Divine Power]: 3911/8788
He glanced at the panel, his gaze slightly focused.
Since his power had increased consecutively, the growth speed of Divine Power had long surpassed the ordinary Unity Realm.
Currently, the daily increase in Divine Power has exceeded a hundred paths.
"With the current efficiency calculation, it only takes over a month to step into Unity Realm Great Success."
"But it’s still too slow! Ji Xuan and Yellow Heaven Taoist might make a move at any time!!"
Thoughts flashed through his mind.
Then, he looked at the three drops of Spiritual Marrow in the jade bottle.
According to the Dragon Head’s words, these three drops of three-thousand-year Spiritual Marrow can increase Divine Power.
The reason the Dragon Head was so powerful was undoubtedly related to this.
Then, he glanced at the Mystic Heart Fruit.
"The Mystic Heart Fruit is gentle in medicine, and the Spiritual Marrow is domineering; the two complement each other perfectly!" he mused to himself and took the reddish-orange Mystic Heart Fruit, consuming it in a few bites.
