"Not a chance." Saachi gave him a sidelong glance.
The Acme Herbs were extremely rare and precious.
Moreover, Saachi had spent a huge effort transferring most of these herbs in the herb
garden from the Aeternus District before they had fled from there. They could not afford to
give away the herbs carelessly, especially to a relatively unknown man.
"Fine. Forget what I just said.”
James thought, 'I don't really need these high-grade herbs yet since I haven't begun
developing my new bloodline power. Also, it'll take quite some time for me to train and
improve the new bloodline power in the beginning. I won't need herbs of the Acme grade
for that stage.’
As James walked away in a carefree manner, Saachi stood there and stared at the man's
receding figure.

A few seconds later, Leif materialized beside her.
Saachi instructed, "Keep a close watch on James. He's eyeing the herbs in this garden.
Also, reinforce the formation around the herb garden."
"Understood." Leif nodded and left to carry out her orders.
Meanwhile, James visited several major cities located in the universe.
After going through a series of fierce battles with those
back in the Aeternus District, their apothecaries were almost out of medicine and elixirs
since there was a huge demand for those items to treat countless wounded civilians and
fighters.
Furthermore, the universe sustained severe damage due to the war to the point where it
had not been able to recover the energies of heaven and earth. People could hardly find
any rare, high-grade herbs in the wild. Even low-grade herbs were very scarce.
To his disappointment, James could only find low-grade herbs or elixirs at the apothecaries

he visited. Eventually, he decided to visit other nearby planets to look for the herbs he
needed.
Unfortunately, James realized the situation was quite similar on those planets. People had
harvested most of the useful herbs, and it would require a long time for new herbs to grow
and mature.
In the end, James managed to collect a batch of herbs from several primeval forests. Some
of them were Sage-ranked herbs whereas the rest of them were below that grade.
After James had returned to the spiritual mountain where he was staying, he headed out
to the backyard and placed all the herbs on the ground. The man had a gloomy expression
on his face.
"We had so many herbs of these grades back in the Human Universe. If I knew that this
was going to happen, I would have collected a bunch of them or even stocked up rarer
herbs beforehand," James muttered dejectedly.
Then, he shook his head.

"Well, these herbs will do for now. Once I've created a new bloodline power, I can try to
search for herbs of higher grades outside this region. I need to focus on improving this
new bloodline power so that I can remove the seal as soon as possible."
A short while later, James conjured a huge earthen pot. It was large enough to fit a grown
man. He transferred the herbs into the pot, filled the pot up with water, and started boiling
the mixture.
Soon enough, James was done making the herbal concoction.
He drew a long breath.
'This is the start of my new bloodline power!"
Upon saying that, James stepped into the pot and immersed himself in the concoction.
"James? What on earth are you doing?"
Leif had a puzzled look on his face as he slowly approached the huge pot. He could see
the peculiar swirls of colors in the pot's contents. He could also detect a weak aura from
that mixture.
