"Starlight Lotus?" Chen Ku quickly flipped through the information in his mind about this 'Treasure Herb' but found nothing.

"Starlight Lotus, it is not only a Treasure Herb but also a mother plant capable of nurturing 'Starlight Divine Water', as it grows not by other nutrients but primarily by absorbing starlight."

Shan Lingguan also showed a delighted expression:

"Once it absorbs enough nutrients, it will condense one or two drops of Starlight Divine Water on its lotus leaf, and this Starlight Divine Water is part of the legendary Three Light Divine Water. The so-called Three Light Divine Water is refined from Sunlight Divine Water, Moonlight Divine Water, and Starlight Divine Water combined. It is said to neutralize all poisons in the Three Realms and Six Paths, and cure all so-called 'incurable' poisons; it can also heal all wounds and diseases and even revive dead wood and bones."

"This defies heaven, doesn't it?!" Chen Ku exclaimed.

He then looked at the Starlight Lotus in the medicine garden pond, his eyes filled with heat.

"Stand here, and I'll go harvest it for you."

Shan Lingguan said solemnly:

"After all, this is the real medicine garden within the Hero King Palace, there could be danger."

"I'll provide cover for Master Uncle." Qin Yuxian said.

"Master, be careful." Chen Ku quickly reminded.

Shan Lingguan walked slowly to the pond's edge, seeming to sense something, frowned slightly, then probed the pond with a small lightning bolt.

Sizzle~~

Yet, before the lightning hit the pond, a golden three-tailed carp suddenly flipped out of the water, jumping up and shaking its three tails, sending three water columns as thick as barrels towards Shan Lingguan!

Boom~~~

Before the water columns approached Shan Lingguan, a frightening storm of water vapor brewed in the air, as if dark clouds were pressing down.

"Eighth Realm Demon—Eight-tailed Dragon Fish!" Qin Yuxian blurted out, his face changed, quickly blocking Chen Ku.

"Eighth Realm?" Chen Ku's heart raced; such a small pond harbored an Eighth Realm Dragon Fish guarding the Treasure Herb, he quickly said: "Master, if you can't take it, just let it go, safety first!"

He did not wish the old man to crash trying to gather a Water Element Spiritual Object for him.

"Underestimating your master?"

Shan Lingguan rolled his eyes at Chen Ku and, facing the water vapor sent by the Eight-tailed Dragon Fish, clenched his five fingers and activated the 'Weak Water Technique' within his Huntian Overlord Body, making the incoming water vapor as light as a feather, losing all its weight.

When the water vapor fell on him, he flipped his palm sharply, sending the vapor back, turning the once gentle flow into a weighty thousand-ton strike aimed at the Eight-tailed Dragon Fish!

Clatter~

The Eight-tailed Dragon Fish, seeing this, its eyes flared with fury, a golden scale shining on its forehead, wing membranes sprouted under its ribs and tail, and as its two wings flapped, the pond's vapor transformed into countless water knives and spears, charging at Shan Lingguan like an army.

Yet it failed to notice a black wind stealthily sweeping over the pond, transforming into a large black wind hand, uprooting the Starlight Lotus swaying in the pond completely!

Boom!

Accompanied by the picking of the Starlight Lotus, Shan Lingguan's Weak Water Technique and the Eight-tailed Dragon Fish's water spears collided.

Having picked this Treasure Herb, Shan Lingguan retreated without hesitation, heading in a certain direction.

"Let's go!!"

Qin Yuxian was prepared, grabbing Chen Ku, the three of them instantly vanishing from the pond's range, appearing a hundred feet away!

With an impact of water waves, like waterfalls soaring into the sky, transforming into torrential rain scattering in all directions.

The Eight-tailed Dragon Fish, though falling back into the pond, was unscathed. Seeing the vanished Starlight Lotus from the pond, it immediately let out a roar resembling a dragon's howl.

Roar!!!

Sound waves layered outwards.

However, standing a hundred feet away, holding a crisp lotus leaf and Starlight Lotus like mutton-fat jade, Shan Lingguan exhaled and said:

"Hero King Pei Dongliu even relocated the 'Dragon Fish' once nurtured in the Great Hong Imperial Palace pond to this Underground Palace. This Dragon Fish, originally nourished by the Great Hong Dynasty's Dragon Energy, is indestructible all over. It has grown eight tails and refined a 'Dragon Scale'; even for me to subdue it is not easy, fortunately, our goal was the Starlight Lotus and Starlight Divine Water."

While speaking, he lifted the Starlight Lotus in his hand, carefully inspecting the lotus leaf's center, discovering a droplet resembling a pearl, like dewdrops, or a fruit growing on the lotus leaf.

Pop~

With a gentle dig of his finger, Shan Lingguan promptly retrieved this pearl-like silver droplet, smiling at Chen Ku:

"Disciple, you and I shall have great fortune. This Starlight Divine Water is perfect for you to use in condensing your Five Elements Skill, and the Star Lotus will serve as the material for me to refine the 'Shenxiao Pill', enhancing the power of my Five Thunders Decision."

"Thank you, Master!"

Chen Ku received the precious 'Starlight Divine Water' with both hands, grateful for his master's kindness but also glancing at the pool, observing the raging Eight-tailed Dragon Fish seemingly bound to the pond, quietly thinking:

"Eight-tailed Dragon Fish formed by Hongjing City's Dragon Energy nourishment? That means if defeated, it also has Dragon Energy? Moreover, it's Eighth Realm Dragon Energy?"

Thinking of it made his heart pound.

What kind of dragon could Eighth Realm Dragon Energy transform into?

Surely something classier than a Flood Dragon, perhaps a Golden Dragon?

However, even Master Shan Lingguan acknowledges difficulty in dealing with the Eighth Realm Dragon Fish, Chen Ku could only momentarily stifle his thoughts.

"Ultimately, the Dragon Fish is confined by its roots, a fish cannot leave water. Now we've taken the Starlight Lotus, let's maneuver around it. Let's see what other Treasured Medicines the medicine garden holds?" Shan Lingguan said, also imparting the Huntian Overlord Body's 'Weak Water Technique' incantations to Chen Ku, and continued: "You can now consume the Starlight Divine Water, good fortune we are here with Qin to assist in refining it, accomplishing the fifth level cultivation body, tremendously aiding your upcoming breakthrough to the Sixth Realm Array Veins."

Achieving five levels in Huntian Overlord Body signifies a qualitative transformation, as once Five Elements Endless Life cycle forms within, any large arrays embedded within the body will be on solid footing, unafraid of the array's pressure.

Chen Ku, without hesitation, consumed the Three Light Divine Water, adhering to the incantation given by his master, began refining within as they walked.

Meanwhile, Qin Yuxian and Shan Lingguan both infused two streams of True Qi into his body, aiding his refinement.

The three circled the pond, entering deeper into the medicine garden.

And thus, discovered many rare Treasured Medicines.
