1011 Terrifying Effect of the Essence Pool!

The Awakened with varying potential would experience a significant difference in their strength after undergoing the same cultivation process.

Hence, the earlier he unlocked the essence pool, the quicker he could boost the strength of all Origin Territory members. Simultaneously, an earlier activation of the essence pool would enhance the origin and potential of all members, leading to a more substantial increase in overall strength.

The conditions to construct the essence pool had been fulfilled by the Origin Territory following the completion of the S-rank mission.

[The materials required for the essence pool’s construction were: primordial grass (S-grade), blood flame stone (S-grade), bewitching orchid (S-grade), celestial gold (S-grade), essence stone (SS-grade)]

Among them, Liu Yan already possessed the S-grade primordial grass from the Withered Tree Spirit King.

However, Liu Yan lacked the other materials.

Liu Yan turned to Lu Dajiang and the others, informing them of the situation. Finally, he inquired, “Do any of you possess the remaining four materials?”

Lu Dajiang and the rest had brought a considerable portion of items from Lighthouse Territory’s warehouse upon joining the Origin Territory.

Originally, the Lighthouse Territory was a level-5 territory. Having developed on the sixth floor of the tower’s Wind Barrier for over two years, its warehouse was naturally stocked abundantly. It was plausible to have these high-level rare materials.

After learning about the situation of the rare building essence pool, Lu Dajiang and the others had complicated expressions.

Wei Feng let out a sigh. “As expected of an S-grade mission. The rewards for its completion are unexpectedly generous. It even grants access to a special rare building!”

Huang Yuan nodded in agreement. “Indeed. Special buildings possess significant power, and the same goes for rare buildings. The effects of special and rare buildings can only be described as remarkable.”

Lu Dajiang chimed in, “A new territory being able to construct a special and rare building is something I wouldn’t have even dared to imagine. Typically, special and rare buildings are within the realm of consideration for level-7 territories. As for the concept of special and rare buildings at our level, it’s entirely unheard of.”

Ning Shanshan was excited as she said, “If we can successfully erect this special and rare building, the essence pool, the prospects of our Origin Territory are beyond comprehension.”

They all looked at Liu Qingrou.

After all, Liu Qingrou was previously in charge of warehouse management in the Lighthouse Territory. She naturally knew more about this aspect.

Liu Qingrou knew the importance of this matter, so she did not dare to be careless. She quickly opened her storage rings and searched.

While searching, Liu Qingrou said, “As long as these high-level rare materials exist in the Lighthouse Territory’s warehouse, I will retrieve them. I won’t overlook them. The materials we lack are mainly lower-grade.”

Liu Yan and the others patiently awaited the outcome.

Before long, Liu Qingrou concluded her search. She looked up with a mixed expression and conveyed, “It appears that we do possess several of these high-grade rare materials. I’ve found S-grade blood flame stone, S-grade celestial gold, and SS-grade essence stone. However, the only missing item is the S-grade bewitching orchid!”

Upon hearing this news, the group experienced a mix of delight and disappointment.

It was a pleasant surprise to discover that these several high-level special materials indeed existed, and there was more than one of them.

Such high-level rare materials were incredibly hard to come by. Even the former level-5 Lighthouse Territory had only a few in stock.

Collecting high-level rare materials was a notably challenging endeavor.

Liu Qingrou’s fortunate discovery of some high-level rare materials there was already quite a stroke of luck.

However, frustratingly, one high-level rare material was still missing.

While it was just one missing item, finding specific high-level rare materials was typically an exceedingly difficult task.

In many territories, even with extensive efforts spanning months or even a year or two, locating such materials might not be successful.

Although it appeared to be only a single step away, that step might prove to be exceptionally formidable!

Lu Dajiang couldn’t help but express some vexation, saying, “Out of the five high-level rare materials required, we’ve managed to gather four, yet we’re only missing one. It’s truly disheartening.”

Ning Shanshan also nodded in agreement, remarking, “Indeed, this is quite bothersome.”

Liu Qingrou’s expression was helpless as she explained, “I’ve conducted a thorough search, but I couldn’t find an S-grade bewitching orchid. I’ve never even heard of it.”

Wei Feng furrowed his brow slightly, adding, “This bewitching orchid does sound familiar to me. I recall hearing it somewhere before, though I’m currently unable to pinpoint its source.”

Beside them, Huang Yuan had a complex expression as he commented, “I have indeed heard of the bewitching orchid before. It seems to be linked to the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower in the Hallucinatory Forest, but I’m uncertain about its precise location. I only know that it lies deep within the Hallucinatory Forest.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Yan’s expression took on an unusual quality. It was unexpectedly related to the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower.

In truth, Liu Yan had previously developed quite a grievance with the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower. It was likely that dozens of them had met their end at the hands of Liu Yan and his companions.

Furthermore, Liu Yan and the group had even driven the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower from the outer areas deeper into the Hallucinatory Forest, signifying a profound enmity.

Previously, Liu Yan had considered those Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers to be suspicious and a latent threat, making their complete eradication seem like the best course of action.

However, the subsequent battles at the Flaming Mountain and the conflict with the Lighthouse Territory diverted their attention. Currently, evading the investigation by the Lakon Territory had occupied them, rendering them quite busy and leaving them with no time to focus on the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower.

Yet, fate had an unexpected twist in store. The missing high-level rare material required for constructing the special and rare building essence pool was unexpectedly related to the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower. This serendipitous connection added an intriguing layer of complexity.

Liu Yan’s expression took on a peculiar cast. It seemed he was destined to once again encounter the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower deep within the Hallucinatory Forest.

Liu Yan inquired with the Withered Tree Spirit King.

Although the Withered Tree Spirit King hadn’t been summoned, the mental link Liu Yan had established allowed for direct communication.

Having lived for centuries within the depths of the Hallucinatory Forest, the Withered Tree Spirit King possessed an intimate familiarity with the area.

After inquiring, Liu Yan gleaned a rough idea of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower’s whereabouts in the depths of the forest. This also increased the likelihood of locating the elusive bewitching orchid.

According to the Withered Tree Spirit King, the bewitching orchid, though merely a high-level rare material, shared a profound connection with the birth and dominance of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower

Therefore, as long as they headed to the core of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower, not only would they have a high chance of finding the bewitching orchid, but they would also have a chance of obtaining other benefits.

After all, to be able to make so many Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers grow and become powerful, such an essence must be extremely powerful.

While other Awakened might not yet harness such essence, Liu Yan’s possession of the SSS-grade divine talent of Divine Extraction enabled him to effortlessly extract its benefits.

Liu Yan found himself pondering these prospects.

Then, turning his gaze to the assembled group, Liu Yan proposed, “I know the location of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower and am confident in locating the bewitching orchid. What do you think about me going to search for it?”

Lu Dajiang immediately expressed concern, saying, “Is this a safe approach? We’re currently evading detection from the Lakon Territory. We can’t afford to be discovered. Leaving the Origin Territory now carries the risk of exposure. And if you’re exposed, it won’t only affect you, the entire Origin Territory and every member of Team Origin could be compromised.”

Wei Feng concurred. “Our Origin Territory’s strength is still insufficient, making a confrontation with the Lakon Territory unwise. At this time, we can’t expose ourselves.”

Ning Shanshan wore a wistful expression as she added, “While I do wish to find the bewitching orchid and construct the essence pool to enhance the origin and strength of all members in the Origin Territory, venturing out now does pose significant risks.”

Liu Qingrou nodded in agreement, saying, “I also believe that it’s better not to take unnecessary risks and proceed cautiously.”

Liu Yan wasn’t surprised by their concerns, fully understanding the complexity of the situation.

But since Liu Yan had proposed it, he had naturally thought about it.

Liu Yan couldn’t help but look at the remaining three who didn’t speak. Chu Long, Luo Qingcheng, and Huang Yuan.

“What are your opinions?” Liu Yan inquired.

Chu Long didn’t hesitate in her response, stating firmly, “I trust Brother Liu Yan. If he’s making this choice, he must have good reasons for it.”

In reality, Chu Long was far from naive. She was quite astute. She was well aware of the underlying intricacies of the matter.

Yet, Chu Long also possessed a deep understanding of Liu Yan’s character and had faith in him. Thus, despite recognizing the potential pitfalls, she continued to place her trust in him.

Chu Long had grown accustomed to this stance, her unwavering belief in Liu Yan causing her to stand by his side without hesitation.

On the other hand, Luo Qingcheng appeared somewhat contemplative. Confronted by the collective gaze of the group, she eventually conceded, “I also find it somewhat inappropriate, but I trust Liu Yan to have considered his decision thoroughly. I’ll take some more time to think about it.”

All eyes then turned to Huang Yuan, awaiting his response.

Liu Yan also directed his gaze at Huang Yuan. mong the people present, Liu Yan was the one who knew Huang Yuan the latest and knew the least about him. At this moment, he also wanted to see what Huang Yuan, who had been silent and deep in thought, had to say.

Huang Yuan ignored everyone’s gazes and looked straight at Liu Yan. Slowly and firmly, he said, “I agree with Captain’s suggestion. Captain will go into the depths of the Hallucinatory Forest alone to search for the S-rank rare material bewitching orchid!”
