Chapter 729: Chapter 352 Destined People (Two in One)_2 "I see." Chen Mo now somewhat understood what this so-called "beast calamity" meant. When he first entered this area, The Heavenly Path’s Hint had mentioned that after reaching this area, he would encounter beast-type intelligent life forms. This type of professional belonged to a category that were absolute mortal enemies with humanoid intelligent life forms. Once encountered, a battle to the death was inevitable. "Thank you both for the detailed information. However, I wonder, as a destined person, what kind of help can I receive from you?" "As aboriginal inhabitants, there are many things we cannot do due to the restrictions of the Heavenly Dao. Many matters can only be entrusted to you, the destined people, to help resolve. Coincidentally, our village leader has an important matter recently that requires the help of a destined person. If you have the time, you could go and see him about it." "I am quite free at the moment. If there’s anything needed, feel free to entrust it to me. I just don’t know where your village leader is right now?" "Look, the only white house in the village is the village leader’s home. He rarely goes out on ordinary days; you can go directly to the village leader’s house to find him." Having received directions from the two little blue men, Chen Mo immediately expressed his thanks. After finishing the tea they had poured for him, he stood up and left. It had to be said, different races had vastly different senses of taste. To Chen Mo, this tea from the little blue men was incredibly bitter; after drinking it once, he had no desire to drink it a second time. However, after drinking this tea, he gained a temporary anti-poison characteristic. Chen Mo didn’t pay too much attention to it, not knowing what use it had. Following the little blue men’s directions, he arrived in front of the only white house in the village. There, he saw a very young-looking little blue man playing chess by himself in his own yard. Does this strange race love chess so much? Through the Eye of Origin, Chen Mo identified at a glance that the very young-looking little blue man before him was the village leader of this village. This village leader’s strength was not weak; this fellow’s Divine Power was as high as 1,000 points. He was not to be underestimated. Chen Mo gently knocked on the courtyard gate and said, "Excuse me, sorry to bother you. Might you be the village leader here?" The other party was originally immersed in his own chess game. Only after hearing Chen Mo’s knock did he raise his head. Glancing at the top of Chen Mo’s head, he immediately smiled, stood up, and said, "Destined one, welcome to our Goulan Village. Please, come into the courtyard and have a seat." The village leader brought out a small stool and placed it in front of Chen Mo. After entering the courtyard, Chen Mo said with a smile, "I just met two villagers at the village entrance who mentioned you recently have a matter needing assistance. Since I happened to be free, I came to inquire." "That’s truly wonderful! I was just worrying about how to deal with this matter." "I wonder what the specific matter is?" "Please, sit down, and we can talk slowly." After Chen Mo sat down, the village leader very enthusiastically brought over a cup of tea. Upon seeing this tea, Chen Mo wore a smile on his face, but his heart was filled with bitterness. This tea was truly incomparably bitter; he really didn’t want to drink it a second time. However, under the smiling gaze of the other person, Chen Mo could only politely drink it down in one gulp. Unexpectedly, while he had thought the cup of tea he drank at the village entrance was already bitter enough, the cup the village leader brought out was even more so. It was so bitter Chen Mo nearly spat it out directly. He’s not trying to mess with me, is he? Chen Mo was rather speechless. However, as the second cup of tea went down, the temporary anti-poison characteristic he had just gained immediately transformed into a more advanced anti-poison characteristic. [High-Level Wisteria Tea BUFF]: You have consumed High-Level Wisteria Tea. You will no longer be affected by any of the virulent poisons in The Forest of Toxic Mist. "How is it? How does this tea taste? Isn’t it exceptionally sweet?" Chen Mo gave a wry smile. "Exceedingly sweet." "Another cup?" Seeing the other party pick up the teapot, preparing to refill his cup, Chen Mo quickly moved his teacup aside and said, "No, thank you. I can’t really handle sweet things." "What a shame." After saying that, the other party poured himself a cup and drank it with great enjoyment. Just watching him made Chen Mo feel the bitterness. Only after finishing the tea did the other party begin to discuss the important matter with Chen Mo. "I previously planted a Spirit-Coagulation Poison Flower in The Forest of Toxic Mist. Thinking about it now, it should have reached maturity. However, when I entered The Forest of Toxic Mist to search for it again, I found that the Spirit-Coagulation Poison Flower was already gone..." "Could it have been eaten by a monster in the forest?" "Unlikely. If the Spirit-Coagulation Poison Flower is eaten or plucked, corresponding traces will be left at the root, allowing one to deduce what happened. But this Spirit-Coagulation Poison Flower of mine seems to have vanished as if into thin air." "Vanished into thin air?" "Legend has it that once a Spiritual Medicine’s rank reaches the ninth-rank, it will develop a Medicine Spirit. I previously thought that was merely a legend. However, the Spirit-Coagulation Poison Flower I planted this time was in The Forest of Toxic Mist, a treasure land for the propagation of poisons. Furthermore, the fertilizer I applied after planting it was also a treasure. It’s possible it truly grew into a ninth-rank Poison Flower because of this, developed self-awareness, and left the place where I planted it." "So, Village Leader, your meaning is that you want me to enter this Forest of Toxic Mist to help you find the whereabouts of this Spirit-Coagulation Poison Flower?" "Precisely. The Forest of Toxic Mist is exceptionally dangerous. Even though our village cultivates Wisteria flowers year-round and can brew Wisteria Tea to resist the virulent poisons of The Forest of Toxic Mist, there are too many powerful monsters within it. Our villagers lack the capability to enter. For me to go in alone is truly like searching for a needle in a haystack. I’ve heard that you destined people often possess large-scale detection abilities, so I wanted to request your assistance in entering The Forest of Toxic Mist to search for this item." "I see. In that case, I’ll take on this task." "Good, then I’ll entrust this to you. Observing that your Divine Power Strength is superior to mine, I imagine entering it won’t pose much danger to you. However, just to be on the safe side, you should still take this item. If you encounter danger, using this item directly can save your life." As he spoke, the village leader handed a lustrous green pearl to Chen Mo. [Toxic Mist Pearl - Eternal Divine Object]: When activated, it enhances the toxicity of the surrounding miasma, causing all other units caught within the miasma to enter a weakened state, their divine element reduced by half, and stunning them for 3 seconds. It won’t affect me, and it’s a hard crowd-control for 3 seconds. Not a bad treasure. After accepting the Toxic Mist Pearl, Chen Mo also took the opportunity to ask about the whereabouts of several quest items he needed. "By the way, Village Leader, there are some materials I need that I currently don’t know where to find. With your extensive knowledge, I wonder if you might know something about them?" "Tell me about them?" "Have you heard of items like Eternal Divine Soil, Eternal Divine Water, Eternal Divine Fire, Eternal Divine Lightning, and Eternal Divine Wind?" "Naturally, I’ve heard of them. Our World of Heavenly Element has many places that produce these things. Later, I’ll give you a map and circle the locations of these items on it for you. You can just follow the map to find them." Hearing this, Chen Mo was immediately delighted. "That’s truly excellent! By the way, I also wanted to ask, have you heard of things like ’Complete Divine Character,’ ’Divine Concentration Liquid,’ and ’Divine Transformation Sacred Fruit’?" "Those items are even more common. They are items for advancing in the God Realm. They can be obtained from any shrine. It’s just that if you wish to request these items from a shrine, you will likely need to help the shrine accomplish some tasks. As for the specifics, you can go to a nearby shrine and see for yourself when the time comes." "Oh? Is there a shrine near your village?" "About 300,000 meters west of our village, there is a shrine." "300,000 meters!?" Chen Mo was rather speechless. Such a great distance was actually called ’nearby’? However, when he thought about the travel speed after reaching the God Realm, this distance could indeed be considered ’nearby’. Since he could get information on the whereabouts of the items he needed, Chen Mo was no longer in a hurry. He accepted the village leader’s quest and decided to first head to The Forest of Toxic Mist to search for the so-called ninth-rank Spiritual Medicine. After bidding farewell to the village leader, Chen Mo used a Divine Flicker and arrived at The Forest of Toxic Mist that the village leader had mentioned.
