Xu Chuan knew nothing of what was happening outside.
At this moment, he had already entered the treasure vault.
Inside, it was a world of its own, completely different from the exterior.
Despite being called a treasure vault, the environment here resembled a cultivated medicinal garden!
The heaven and earth origin energy within was also extremely abundant. A single breath brought a sense of clarity and refreshment, even accelerating the speed of his cultivation techniques.
After a scan with his divine sense, Xu Chuan found no danger within.
He finally relaxed his tense heart.
In truth, Xu Chuan’s worry was entirely unnecessary.
Who would set up dangers within their own treasure vault? It would be a fool's errand.
Having confirmed its safety, Xu Chuan leisurely explored every inch of the treasure vault.
Here, spiritual herbs rarely seen in the outside world were scattered everywhere. Some were even beyond Xu Chuan's recognition.
However, judging by their appearance and the medicinal power they emitted, Xu Chuan knew they were no ordinary plants.
Moreover, every spiritual herb here possessed a terrifying age.
Even a single, common spiritual herb had a medicinal age of no less than ten thousand years!
One could imagine the potency of their effects.
"Amazing, I've struck it rich!" Even Xu Chuan couldn't help but let out a coarse exclamation.
The discoveries within the treasure vault were simply astonishing!
Each of these spiritual herbs could fetch an astronomical price if taken outside!
It could be said that if he collected them all, Xu Chuan would have no shortage of resources even if he cultivated to the Emperor Venerable realm!
Having suffered from a lack of resources, Xu Chuan couldn't resist and immediately began to gather them.
With his Ancient Hall world, Xu Chuan was fully capable of collecting the entire treasure vault dimension!
To not take advantage of such a windfall would be idiotic.
First, he carved out a space within his Ancient Hall world, and then Xu Chuan began to transfer the spiritual herbs.
To prevent these spiritual herbs from being unaccustomed to their new environment, Xu Chuan didn't even leave the soil behind.
The soil here had long since become medicinal soil, imbued with terrifying heaven and earth origin energy, making it the best soil for cultivating spiritual herbs.
"Ten thousand-year Blood Ganoderma, it's mine!"
"Twenty thousand-year Purple Sun Fruit, top-tier!"
"Damn, spiritual herbs with thirty thousand years of age, I'm taking them!"
Xu Chuan's face was filled with excitement.
This trip was absolutely worth it!
Coupled with the World Tree Seed from the treasure vault, Xu Chuan had indeed reaped immense rewards!
"Indeed, seizing opportunities is the most satisfying!"
Xu Chuan sighed with emotion.
Soon, the entire treasure vault dimension was ransacked by Xu Chuan.
Where Xu Chuan went, he dug three feet deep!
After collecting all the spiritual herbs in the treasure vault dimension, Xu Chuan's gaze fell upon the thatched hut at the center of the dimension.
From the moment he entered the treasure vault dimension, the fate script he had just drawn began to frantically alert him that there was something very important inside.
This made Xu Chuan certain that the World Tree Seed he was looking for was within.
It was just that the abundance of spiritual herbs had prevented him from reaching it.
Now that the spiritual herbs were all collected, it was time to retrieve his World Tree Seed and avoid any unforeseen complications!
Xu Chuan knew very well that the appearance of the treasure vault would cause a huge sensation in the Southern Region.
A large number of martial artists would soon flock here.
Even if they didn't have the key to the treasure vault's door, their sheer numbers would eventually open it!
The treasure vault door would soon be breached!
If Xu Chuan hadn't obtained the World Tree Seed by then, he might truly have missed this chance of a lifetime!
Therefore, he had to hurry!
"World Tree Seed, here I come!"
Suppressing his excitement, Xu Chuan headed straight for the thatched hut.
There was a formation on the thatched hut, but Xu Chuan easily passed through it and entered the vicinity of the hut.
This was likely because Xu Chuan had entered the place using the key.
Pushing open the door of the thatched hut, Xu Chuan stepped inside.
It went dark, and Xu Chuan instinctively closed his eyes.
When he opened them again, the environment before him had changed.
This was no dilapidated thatched hut as it appeared from the outside; it was clearly a place for cultivation!
The surrounding walls were constructed from a material called Heavenly Gold, making it appear exceptionally luxurious.
The floor of the room was covered with numerous formations, which absorbed the origin energy from chaos and converted it into heaven and earth origin energy.
On the left side of the room, a row of wooden shelves held many bottles and jars.
In the center of the room stood a large cauldron, and within it, a verdant green seed floated in liquid condensed from heaven and earth origin energy.
Xu Chuan could feel a strong vitality emanating from this seed.
This indicated that the seed was still alive!
"Is this the World Tree Seed?" Xu Chuan stared at the seed in the cauldron, captivated.
With this item, he could embark on the path of an Emperor Venerable realm expert ahead of time!
He could even use it to quickly become an Emperor Venerable realm expert, leave the Xuanyuan World, and venture into the chaos!
Xu Chuan eagerly anticipated this day!
Only by venturing into the chaos and cultivating to become the strongest martial artist could he fulfill the few aspirations in his heart!
However, Xu Chuan did not act rashly to retrieve the seed from the cauldron.
He was unsure if Divine Medicine Emperor Venerable had left behind any contingency plans to protect the World Tree Seed.
He examined the wooden shelves. The bottles on them contained elixirs refined by Divine Medicine Emperor Venerable.
However, with the passage of time, the elixirs within had turned to dust.
No elixir could withstand the ravages of tens of thousands of years.
Xu Chuan found no danger on the wooden shelves.
He then checked the formations on the floor and found no danger.
They were simply formations designed to extract chaotic origin energy and convert it into heaven and earth origin energy.
After inspecting everything within the room, Xu Chuan found no danger.
It seemed that the World Tree Seed was indeed left behind by Divine Medicine Emperor Venerable for someone destined.
And that destined person was Jin Ao.
But now, it belonged to Xu Chuan!
He reached out with confidence to grasp the seed.
Without any incident, the seed was held firmly in Xu Chuan's hand.
Simultaneously, Xu Chuan used his divine ability, Insight into All Phenomena, and instantly, all the information about the seed appeared before him.
[Plump and round World Tree Seed: Abundant vitality, can sprout at any time, the best treasure for opening up an inner world!]
With this definitive information, Xu Chuan's heart was put at ease.
This was a genuine World Tree Seed, with no issues!
Just as Xu Chuan was rejoicing, the large cauldron in the room shattered, and a golden light shot into Xu Chuan's mind.
Xu Chuan was greatly alarmed, thinking it was a ploy by Divine Medicine Emperor Venerable, and prepared to resist.
But then, a vast amount of information appeared in his mind.
Xu Chuan immediately understood that the golden light was a legacy!
The legacy of Divine Medicine Emperor Venerable!
Thus, Xu Chuan relaxed and began to accept the information.
After a brief silence, Xu Chuan had already processed the information.
Unlike before, Xu Chuan did not need to spend a large amount of time digesting it.
Furthermore, Divine Medicine Emperor Venerable's legacy was not like the previous legacies Xu Chuan had obtained, which consisted solely of cultivation techniques and martial skills.
Divine Medicine Emperor Venerable's legacy was about identifying, discerning, and cultivating spiritual herbs, as well as refining elixirs and a small amount of formation knowledge.
These were all subsidiary skills on the path of martial arts.
