Chapter 214: Chapter 212: Discussion on the Internal Structure of Spiritual Medicine_1

Owen Bertram looked at the "Soldier Blood Vine" in front of him, and touched his chin: This spiritual medicine is indeed special and seems very useful, but its effect is... rather limited.

No wonder it was stored in the Royal Mansion Treasury instead of the Dragon Abyss. It must be because the cultivation conditions were too strict, and Prince Henry didn’t have anyone capable of planting it. Otherwise, after it grew, it could be turned into spiritual pills and given to Bat Taoist’s monster soldiers. Then Prince Henry would have another powerful army on his side.

"Lucky me."

Owen Bertram murmured to himself, not caring about the "strict cultivation conditions" at all, and planted it directly in his backyard. However, as soon as he dug a hole and placed the Soldier Blood Vine into it, Fern’s roots swarmed towards it, and they pushed the Blood Vine back out like tentacles!

"Yo, you’re pretty domineering," Owen Bertram stared at Fern.

Fern still swayed back and forth, and Owen scratched his head, moved a bit farther away, and dug another hole. But the roots came again.

It wasn’t until Owen was about 15 meters away from Fern that he found no more roots coming out.

But now, the effect of the stone tablet might be greatly weakened. Owen thought for a moment, took out the other half of the stone tablet and buried it, then planted the Soldier Blood Vine.

This time Fern didn’t interfere further. It seemed quite satisfied with having half of the stone tablet to itself and didn’t intervene with the other half.

After planting, watering, of course. Owen Bertram was now quite confident in his spiritual spring. It was no big talk, just look at the growth of the Seven Gourd Siblings! They all looked extraordinary.

All the result of their spiritual spring.

He looked around sheepishly, knowing that he was the only one in his backyard, but still feeling guilty about it as he was doing it in his own home.

He untied his belt, quickly injected the spiritual spring into the ground, and then hurriedly pulled up his pants.

It must be said that men are very fast at doing such things, like lightning.

After pulling up his pants: Who did that? It has nothing to do with me!

Owen Bertram observed for a while, saw that the Soldier Blood Vine still seemed droopy, so he didn’t bother with it anymore and went back inside. In the end, it was just a matter of luck, and Owen Bertram didn’t have high expectations.

Over the next few days, Abner Lane continuously delivered top-secret documents, a small part of which were updates on the progress of the Henry Case, and some issues that needed Owen Bertram’s input. More of the documents were reports about various situations in Casterly County.

That night, the lord received the first piece of information from Sophia via the Communication Talisman:

"Within Casterly County, no Element-devouring Beehives can be found. They were allegedly all taken away by the Horizon Bureau."

"Prescott, the Horizon Bureau’s commander, is suspected of being controlled by Puppetry!"

"Multiple high-ranking cultivators with hidden identities have been discovered within Casterly County. It is highly suspected that another powerful force has intervened here, with a possible mastermind from the Fifth Great Realm!"

"The above three pieces of information cost 9000 Spirit Jades in total. First, charge it to my account."

"Lastly: You really took advantage of me with this dead-color embryo! This isn’t as simple as you said. You have to add more money, or I won’t do it anymore!"

Owen Bertram was in shock: Who could be so bold as to control the Horizon Bureau’s commander with Puppetry?!

Could it be that there was actually a rich treasure in Casterly County?The possible existence of another powerful force, taking advantage of the Horizon Bureau’s power, had collected all the Element-devouring Beehives in the county. Later, those who entered Casterly County, including Owen Bertram and Sophia, would not be able to determine the location of the treasure mine from these traces.

Owen Bertram was cautiously excited, "It’s worth taking such a big risk; this treasure mine is extraordinary!"

Although a large-scale treasure mine would need to be reported to the Horizon Bureau, the larger the mine scale, and the more precious the minerals, the more benefits the person in charge could gain.

"We need to speed up."

At this time, Prescott understood the principle of "high investment, high return" very well. He immediately manipulated the old man to reply to Sophia, "I am supported by powerful figures, and money is not an issue. You can safely investigate."

Then the old man’s persona played its part, adding concern, "Be careful and stay safe!"

Owen Bertram analyzed the current clues and hesitated whether to report to Abner Lane or not.

Finally, he decided to keep it to himself for the time being. Firstly, the information was one-sidedly sent by Sophia and hadn’t been verified yet; secondly, Abner Lane was occupied with the Henry Case and had no time to pay attention to Casterly County. Lastly, Owen Bertram had his selfish motives; if the treasure mine in Casterly County was truly astonishing, he wouldn’t want the Horizon Bureau to know too early.

Considering Abner Lane and Adonis Dunn’s performance in the Henry Case, they were both going all out to raise funds for the new policies, and their eyes turned green with greed.

Regarding the possibility mentioned by Sophia that a powerful force might have someone from the Fifth Great Domain guarding — Owen Bertram was not afraid, as David was also from the Fifth Great Domain.

At this stage, Owen Bertram began seriously considering who to take with him.

This time, they would execute the mission for the Horizon Bureau openly and honestly, without hiding anything.

Although Nathan Lane’s strength was not great, he was good at handling cases and had to be taken. As for Matthew and others, it was best to leave them at the outpost to protect their sister.

Sophia had gone ahead, but it was an employment relationship; she might not be reliable at critical moments.

On his side, David seemed to be the only one capable of fighting. The fellow had enough combat power, but his mind didn’t work well, and he tended to cause trouble.

After considering all these factors, Owen Bertram was still scratching his head, realizing that he still didn’t have many available people under his command. He had to think of a way to get some help from the Ghost Zone.

Directly telling the King of Souls that he had a disciple or junior on his side, was an easy way to give himself away.

As a disciple or junior of the "Honored Lord," he couldn’t personally go to communicate with the King of Souls and convey the "Honored Lord’s" order. Firstly, he was too close to the Ghost Zone, and such a "coincidence" would arouse suspicion in the old man’s mind. Secondly, if the "Honored Lord" was really that powerful, why didn’t he take care of his junior personally? There seemed to be many inconsistencies.

Owen Bertram was thinking about ways to deal with this situation when he suddenly sensed a faint movement from the second brother and felt a warm current.

This time, the Jade Seal took the second brother several days to digest, which was the longest time so far!

As a result, Owen Bertram immediately made use of the massive warm current to continue building his "Dao Tower." Last time, he hadn’t even completed the first layer.

The warm current this time was much larger than the previous one, and it seemed to possess an unstoppable momentum.

With one breath, Owen Bertram completed the first layer of the Dao Tower, and without any hesitation, he began building the second layer!

While using the Annotations on the Pre-Heaven Wood Totem Collection to build the Dao Tower, Owen Bertram gained a deeper understanding of the nine Primordial Wood Talismans.

After completing the second layer of the Dao Tower, Owen Bertram already felt that as long as his cultivation was sufficient, he could instantly create these nine Primordial Wood Talismans without any lack of understanding.
