The Divine Doctor and Stay-at-home Dad - Chapter 854
Chapter 854 A Bonus
Since ancient times, Holy City had undergone many repairs, but its appearance remained the same, which was of that of a strong ancient style.
At the hall of the temple, Qin Haodong introduced all the Pontifex Maximus and Paladins to Kathryn.
When they saw the Holy Force of these new members, both Kathryn and Alex were shocked. Compared with their predecessors of the Divine Court, these new Pontifex Maximus and Paladins were much more powerful.
Looking at this handsome young man from Huaxia, Alex had mixed feelings. Ever since she met him, the entire Divine Court had changed dramatically within a few days.
Kathryn was now the Divine King and since all the four Paladins had been killed, she was the only Pontifex Maximus left.
In other words, Qin Haodong had brought changes to the Divine Court even though he was not the Divine King.
Even the Dark Parliament was under his control. Qin was the actual ruler of the whole western world.
Kathryn said, “Doctor Qin, thank you for doing so much for our Divine Court.”
Qin Haodong said, “You’re welcome. We must work together to fight against the enemy.”
Although he had integrated the eastern forces with the western, he was still worried after seeing the strength of the alien demon generals.
They had a lot of people on their side, but they did not have the upper hand yet. After all, in a duel between the best players, the one with the most people was not always the victor.
He had not met the Alien Demon Emperor yet and Qin Haodong was not sure how powerful he was. So his top priority was to do everything he could to improve his strength so that he could reach the Apotheosis Realm as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, he said to Kathryn, “Where did the bead on the Crown of God come from?”
“Do you mean the Firmament Stone?”
Compared to Kathryn who had just taken control of the Divine Court, Alex was clearer about what had happened. She said, “Ever since we lost the Crown of God of the first Divine King, we had been searching around the world but found nothing.”
“So we made a fake one and used the Firmament Stone to replace the Holy Stone.”
Qin Haodong realized that the Firmament Stone was the top-level Spirit Stones he needed. He asked eagerly, “OK, do you have any more Firmament Stones?”
Alex said, “It’s very precious, but such gems are just decoration for our clergies.”
“The stones are passed down for generations. I don’t know if there is any left. I’ll have to check out the treasure vault of the Divine Court first.”
Qin Haodong said, “The Firmament Stones are very important to me. Could you please take me to have a look?”
But it was beyond Alex’s power to make the final decision. She turned to look at Kathryn, who was the Divine King.
Kathryn nodded, “Of course, if there are any more, Dr. Qin can take them away.”
The reason why she was so generous was that, on the one hand, she had fallen in love with Qin Haodong. On the other hand, as they had discussed before, the Alien Demons were flexing their muscles and the human race was at risk now. She did not care about a few stones.
Then Alex went to the treasury of the Divine Court.
As the most powerful force in the West, the Divine Court had accumulated countless treasures in their huge treasury over the past thousands of years.
The moment he came into the treasure house, Qin Haodong immediately felt the rich Spiritual Qi. There were all kinds of treasures such as antiques, swords, and weapons. Anything here could be sold at a sky-high price.
Qin Haodong just ignored them. What he wanted were the top-level Spirit Stones.
The huge treasure house covered thousands of square meters and was divided into more than a dozen rooms. Qin Haodong checked these rooms one by one but didn’t find any top-level Spirit Stones.
Was that the only top-level Spirit Stone left?
Just when he was feeling disappointed, Alex opened the door to the last treasure room.
After the heavy wooden door was opened, a whiff of Spiritual Qi wafted out.
“Are these top-level Spirit Stones?”
Qin Haodong saw a small wooden box in the corner of the warehouse. There were dozens of top-level Spirit Stones in it.
“Oh my god, there are so many of them.”
Qin Haodong didn’t expect that there would be so many top-level Spirit Stones in the warehouse of the Divine Court, which were even extremely rare in the Cultivation World. They were just piled up here and treated as useless decorations.
He walked over and held the wooden box in his arms. There were 36 of them. With so many top-level Spirit Stones, he was confident he could reach the Apotheosis Realm.
Seeing his excited expression, Kathryn said, “Doctor Qin, they are all yours if you want them.”
“Thank you very much.”
Qin Haodong nodded. It seemed that this trip was worth it. He didn’t expect to find so many top-level Spirit Stones all at once.
But suddenly he had a brainwave. A practitioner couldn’t have too many treasures. Since there were so many top-level Spirit Stones in the vault of the Divine Court, the Dark Parliament must also have similar items.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly said goodbye to Kathryn and the others and headed straight for the Dark Ancient Castle, which was the headquarters of the Dark Parliament.
He received an even warmer welcome here. After all, Khorkina, the new Dark Council President, and Lev, the Wolf King, were his servants.
Qin Haodong didn’t stand on ceremony here. He said to Khorkina directly, “Take me to the treasure house of the Dark Parliament. I’m searching for something.”
Khorkina and Lev took Qin Haodong to the treasure house of the Dark Parliament. It seemed to be a little bigger than the one in the Divine Court, about 2,000 square meters.
This was not surprising. The treasures collected by the Dark World had been stored here for thousands of years.
In addition, what set it apart from the Divine Court was that some of the treasures here had a dark or bloody aura, which was due to them having been obtained by killing and looting.
Qin Haodong walked around and searched the entire treasury. But he was disappointed to find that there were no top-level Spirit Stones.
But after thinking about it, he felt relieved. Treasures like the top-level Spirit Stones were rare even in the Cultivation World. It was already a great blessing for him to get so many inadvertently from the Divine Court. He should not be so greedy.
When he thought about it, he was about to leave. But when he walked to the door, he suddenly saw a leather bag in the corner.
The bag was open and there was a faint fragrance from it.
“What is this?”
Driven by curiosity, Qin Haodong grabbed the leather bag and checked it.
At the sight of the three black balls inside, he almost jumped in excitement. There were patterns of stars and moons on the surface, and they were quite fragrant.
Seeing that Qin Haodong was interested in the bag, Khorkina explained, ” About 300 years ago, a Grand Duke of our Blood Race killed an eastern cultivator. We got this leather bag at that time.”
“Wow, this is a great treasure!”
Qin Haodong didn’t care about where it came from. He reached out and grabbed the three small balls in his hand.
Lev came over to have a look but did not find anything special. He asked curiously, “Master, what is this?”
“This is called Star-Moon Bodhi Fruit. Legend has it that only a ten-thousand-year-old Bodhi Tree can bear this fruit. So it’s ten times more precious than thousand-year-old ginseng.”
Lev knew nothing about traditional Chinese medicine or ginseng, but Qin Haodong was ecstatic.
After reaching the Saint Realm, it was very difficult to improve one’s cultivation, especially in places like Earth where Spiritual Qi was scarce.
The best way to improve one’s cultivation quickly was to take pills and the Cultivation Pill was the most effective for the Saints.
Qin Haodong had the recipe for the Cultivation Pill. Just as its name implied, such a pill could help a Saint reach the next level.
So, with talents and a profound foundation, it would not be too difficult for one to break through to the Divine Realm.
Unfortunately, it was hard to find the Star-Moon Bodhi Fruit, the main ingredient of the Cultivation Pill. Some time ago, he had asked Lin Momo to search through her Chinese medicine company, but they got nothing at all. He didn’t expect to get three here today.
After leaving the treasure vault, Qin Haodong directly flew back to Huaxia. This trip was well worth it. He broke through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, and also got 36 top-level Spirit Stones.
In addition, he also got three Bodhi Fruits this time, which he could use to help his friends make quick improvements.
When he came back to the capital, he immediately started his closed-door training. After three days, he came out and looked the same as before. Only he knew how big the change was.
Then he took the little fellow into the alchemy room to refine the Cultivation Pill together.
To use this pill that could improve a Saint’s cultivation, the Cultivation Pill had extremely high requirements for the flame and refining technique.
After reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, Qin Haodong could also breathe out flames, but it was not as effective as the flames of the Rosefinch.
After having refined so many pills, Tang Tang was very familiar with the procedure. When Qin Haodong set up the Shennong Furnace, she opened her mouth and flames spurted from her mouth.
Her flames were golden in color, with a faint trace of white. It was almost the same as the Samadhi True Fire.
Qin Haodong quickly controlled the furnace and threw the medicinal materials in the Storage Ring into the Shennong Furnace and slowly refined the pills.
Half an hour later, the other herbs had turned into medicinal liquid. Only then did he carefully put a Star-Moon Bodhi Fruit into it.
After more than ten minutes, the whole alchemy room was filled with a strong fragrance. Qin Haodong patted the Shennong Furnace gently. 12 golden pills flew out and fell into the jade bottle that had been prepared.
“That’s great! I can’t believe we’ve got 12 pills!”
Qin Haodong was overjoyed. He had been worried that there would not be enough Cultivation Pills, but now the 12 pills could basically meet his current needs.
Then he made two more batches of pills. When he walked out of the alchemy room, he had a total of 36 Cultivation Pills in the Storage Ring.
He gave one bottle of pills to Lin Momo. After such a long period of practice, nearly all his girlfriends had reached the level of Saints.
Then, he called Xuanyuan Lige and Xi Youmi and sent someone to invite his father, Qin Zongheng, to his home.
All three of them were at the medium stage of the Saint Realm. He wanted to know how much change the Cultivation Pill could bring to them. It would be best if they could reach the Divine Realm in one go.
