adam slept most peacefully in his both lives yesterday night as he was too satisfied with the events . he successfully cleared the system mission , got the rewards , got a fire lotus , and even found the pill recipie to heal uncle han and uncle chen . both were powerful cultivators in the past but uncle han was only a foundation realm while uncle chen is still a peak foundation realm cultivator but his cultivation had stagnated for more than 30years now after his cultivation foundation was damaged while saving his junior from five elements sect from a powerful beast .
adam could heal both of them simply with his pills regardless of the extent of damage to their foundation now . uncle chen now worked as the mayor of dawn city which was an average sized city under the rule of Atom empire . adam was feeling indebted to her old man as he was the one who saved him for slave traders years ago when old adam was just a small child . adam was not the one to forget to repay a debt so he had decided to cure uncle chen even if the favor has nothing to do with him . but anyway he was the one possessing Adam's body so he felt responsibility to repay the debt .
adam had just finished practicing his mourning martial arts routine and was going to start cultivation and attack the foundation realm when he heard unfamiliar voices from outside . this village rarely had any visitors so adam was curious and decided to see who were the guests who visited despite the well known fact that this was recognized as extremely dangerous area . even though adam had resolved the main problem just yesterday but nobody knew about his silent contribution .
adam saw an odd pair arguing about something near the entrance to his house . one was an old man wearing light blue robes and looked extremely healthy for his age. the young man who seemed to be pleading about something to the old man wore white robes and a badge that adam recognized . it was the identity badge of a disciple of the five elements sect . with his now powerful hearing adam managed to hear the entire conversation and decided to help the two men.
" hello sir , I think I can help you with finding the rainbow herb . my name is adam and my job is herb picking . so I am extremely familiar with the locations of herbs inside the forest of death . " adam respectfully explained to the old man and young disciple as he couldn't see through both of their cultivation with his perception. he used observe function on them and was shocked to find that the two were very powerful people . the old man was one of the grand elders and the young man was his first disciple from the five elements sect .
adam knew that a grand elder was the most powerful position in a sect which was even more powerful than the sect leader . they were like the last trump card of every sect and usually more powerful than the sect leader . as grand elder was a special position which was only given to special people . the young man also wasn't to be underestimated as he was a ninth level foundation realm cultivator and the first personal disciple of the grand elder . both of them were extremely powerful people who could casually ruin Adam's life if angered . adam had seen many types of important people who possessed wealth and power during his work in the company so he knew that both of them were not arrogant people but were disciplined like those from army on earth . he could not provoke them as people from army were scary with their punishments.
" hmm.. I never thought that I would meet a peak qi refinement realm young man here in this small village . I am the 3rd grand elder of the five elements sect and this is my disciple Smith. do you really know where to find rainbow herb ? I need it concote an antidote pill for my second disciple who is poisoned by the swamp frog . " the old man spoke with a smile but adam could feel the pressure he was emitting dont know deliberately or subconsciously when he mentioned the precadement his disciple was in .
in truth adam didnt know the location of the rainbow flower as such a precious spiritual herb could be only found in the inner area of the forest of death . but he was sure that he could find easily with the system map . from the knowledge of basic pill and potion mastery , adam knew that it was a rare herb that was guarded by a illusion snake most of the time . adam silently searched the map and was glad that there were two rainbow herbs inside the inner region of the forest . both were showing a red dot alongside them so adam knew that those must be the snakes .the rainbow herb was a flower that had seven petals which were of different colors, that's why it was called rainbow herb . its pollen was extremely dangerous poison so illusion snakes liked to guard it and absorb its pollen all the time . it was one of the most useful herbs to concote antidote pills in this lower realm . after checking that there were rainbow herbs really available Adam's expression relaxed slightly. he decided to tell the elder about it as he had confirmed that he was a 2nd level ascension realm cultivator which was powerful enough to squash the illusion snake easily.
adam smiled " yes sir ! I know two locations where rainbow herb can be found as I have encountered illusion snakes there before . of course for the grand elder the snakes would be easy targets so I can tell you the rough locations with a peaceful mind . please follow me inside my humble house to discuss further details.."
" I can trust you a little more as I can feel that you want something in exchange from me. okay then smith let's listen to this young man's talk first . " the grand elder said with a smile on his face and smith just followed him inside Adam's house silently without any questions ..
' hehe of course old man I'm really looking for a deal here . I would be an idiot if I dont take advantage of this lucky encounter hehe.. ' adam had his poker face on but inside his mind was filled with these thoughts..
