On the paper, there was a lifelike drawing of a red blade of grass.
The shape of the grass was unique. It grew in a triangular shape and was completely blood-red. It was very different from ordinary flowers and plants.
Hao Dong looked at it carefully for a while, then closed his eyes and pondered. Finally, he slowly shook his head. He had never seen such a strange herb in his memory.
He Yiming was quite disappointed. He could tell from Hao Dong's expression that his inquiry this time would not yield any results.
Sure enough, Hao Dong pondered for a moment and said, "Elder He, please forgive me for my poor eyesight. I don't recognize what herb this is."
He Yiming nodded slightly. He could not hide the trace of regret in his eyes. The herb drawn on the paper was the only supplementary herb that he did not recognize in the alchemy technique recorded on the mysterious small token.
It was also because he wanted to inquire about the origin of this herb that he had traveled thousands of miles to the Grand Divine Wind Palace to ask Hao Dong, one of the top alchemists in the world, for advice. However, it was clear that he was going to return disappointed this time.
He let out a long sigh of helplessness. The time he needed to refine that pill was going to be delayed indefinitely.
Hao Dong glanced at him and suddenly said carefully, "Elder He, in fact, in terms of alchemy, there is someone in the world who is better than me. Why don't you ask him? Perhaps you will gain something."
He Yiming subconsciously asked, "Who is it?"
"Great Venerable Fan Shuo from the Blessed Enclave." Hao Dong said seriously, "When he was young, he traveled the world. He left his footprints even in the Western Continent and various inland seas. Moreover, the Five Elements Sect has been passed down for thousands of years. There are countless ancient books passed down in the sect. Perhaps there is an introduction to this item in these ancient books. "
He Yiming responded softly. In fact, he also knew that Fan Shuo's attainments in alchemy were known as the best in the world. He was indeed better than Hao Dong.
However, he still had some reservations about visiting the Five Elements Sect.
After all, this small token and the elixir were all obtained from the Crystal Palace. He Yiming absolutely avoided the Five Elements Sect, so how could he take the initiative to approach them?
Seeing that He Yiming was silent, Xu Xinghe suddenly said, "Elder He, this old man seems to have seen this before."
He Yiming and Hao Dong looked at him at the same time, but their gazes were completely different.
"Brother Xu, what is the name of this thing, and where did you see it?" He Yiming asked joyfully.
Since Xu Xinghe had spoken, it meant that he definitely had some confidence. Otherwise, he would not have spoken so easily.
Xu Xinghe smiled humbly and said, "Elder He, this old man doesn't know what this thing is called. I don't even know if it's a medicinal ingredient. It's just that when this old man was traveling the world, he happened to come across it once. The environment there was rather peculiar, so this old man has a deeper impression of it. "
He Yiming came to a realization and nodded. No wonder Xu Xinghe could recognize a medicinal ingredient that even Hao Dong did not know about. It turned out that he had only come across it by chance.
At this moment, He Yiming deeply felt that every expert's experience of traveling the world was an incomparably precious treasure. Some things were even more useful than what was recorded in books.
"Junior brother Xu, where have you seen this before?" Hao Dong asked before he could.
Xu Xinghe narrowed his eyes and said, "I've seen this in the central region of the Fire Mountains." When he said that, his eyes actually became slightly misty and absent-minded. Clearly, this matter had definitely happened many years ago and had even been buried in the depths of his memories. If it were not for the painting that brought back memories, he probably would not have remembered it for the rest of his life.
"The four-hundred-kilometer-wide Fire Mountains?" He Yiming was slightly stunned. He also sighed inside. How could he forget that place?
"It's the four-hundred-kilometer-wide Fire Mountains." Xu Xinghe answered in a deep voice, "In the past, I entered there for some matters and saw these red flowers and plants in the central region. Back then, I found it rather strange as to how such plants could grow in the Fire Mountains' high temperature. But later on, I got busy, so I put the matter aside. "
Hao Dong sighed and said, "The world is vast, and there are countless rare and exotic items. I still know too little."
He Yiming could not help but laugh. Just as Hao Dong had said, there were so many rare and exotic items in the world that it was impossible for someone to know all of them.
In fact, it was not even known if the unknown red grass was a medicinal herb. If Xu Xinghe had not seen it in the image and happened to come across it, he might not have been able to find the item's trace and origin even if he searched through ancient books in the world.
"Brother Xu, this item is quite important to He," He Yiming said after some thought, "Brother Xu, please tell me the details. He will go and pick it now."
Xu Xinghe laughed heartily and said, "Elder He, if you don't mind my slow speed, let me lead the way. Let's go to the Fire Mountains."
He Yiming smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate to trouble Brother Xu."
Xu Xinghe hurriedly said, "It's the honor of all the disciples of the Grand Divine Wind Palace to be of service to Elder He." He turned his head and said, "Senior Brother Hao, I'll be back soon."
Hao Dong nodded and said, "Junior Brother, it's more important to do business. You don't have to rush back."
He Yiming smiled bitterly in his heart. In fact, as long as he knew the approximate location, he would definitely be able to find the item. But Hao Dong and Xu Xinghe's enthusiasm was somewhat unbearable.
However, he did not know that He Yiming was of great help to the Grand Divine Wind Palace. In order to be on good terms with He Yiming, the Grand Divine Wind Palace was willing to pay any price.
Like now, He Yiming had something to ask of them, and this matter could be solved with a little effort. The elders of the Grand Divine Wind Palace certainly had to do him a favor.
After resting for an hour, He Yiming and Xu Xinghe hurriedly left.
Although he had not been here for long this time, the commotion caused was not small. The news of He Yiming, an expert of the Supreme Dao, returning to the mainland after traveling for three years in the outer sea, instantly spread throughout the city.
And in a corner of the city, a Hu merchant who had come from the far west to do business quickly ended this transaction. After leaving the city, he took out a flying eagle and threw it high up.
The eagle circled around his head and then flew off into the distance.

Three days later, He Yiming and the others came to the sky above the Fire Mountains.
Because of Xu Xinghe's presence, their flying speed was reduced by a lot. Moreover, unlike the experts of the Supreme Dao, the Five Qi Great Venerables could not fly continuously for a long time. So every few hours, they had to rest for a while.
However, He Yiming was not anxious. Although he wanted to refine that kind of elixir and see what it could do, he was not anxious. He definitely would not show that he could not wait.
After all, it was just an interest. It would be good if he could refine it, but if he could not, there was no loss.
So these days, he was the one who suggested to rest more often, which made Xu Xinghe secretly grateful.
The Fire Mountains were located in an endless mountain range in the central and western part of the mainland.
The whole mountain range was six to seven hundred miles long. The widest part of the mountain range was nearly a hundred miles, but the narrowest part was only about a mile or so.
Such a strange terrain was unique even in the entire world. There was no other place like it.
When they came to the sky above the Fire Mountains, they could immediately feel a huge heatwave soaring to the sky.
When He Yiming was still an expert of the Primordial Realm, he had been embarrassed by the heatwave here. However, now that he was here again, the heatwave here was no longer a threat to him.
After Xu Xinghe arrived, his eyes immediately shone brightly as if he had a pair of fiery golden eyes as he searched around.
He Yiming knew that he was definitely looking for the mountain in his memory.
Such strange flowers and herbs would definitely not grow all over the mountains. If Xu Xinghe could not remember where he had seen them before, it would definitely take a lot of effort to find them.
After flying in the sky for another day or so, Xu Xinghe finally showed a hint of surprise on his face. He was surrounded by light as he flew straight down to a mountain peak.
He Yiming's eyes lit up as he followed him to the mountain peak.
This was indeed the middle section of the Fire Mountains. Moreover, it was the area with the widest width. One could imagine the difficulty of finding a unique mountain peak that seemed to be the same everywhere.
Xu Xinghe did not know how many years ago he had been here. It was difficult for him to be able to find it after so many years.
After flying down, Xu Xinghe did not land on the ground. Instead, he turned into a valley at the side of the mountain that was hidden by another peak.
He Yiming finally understood why Xu Xinghe insisted on leading the way.
If he only relied on Xu Xinghe's description of such a hidden place, He Yiming might not be able to find it even after 10 days and nights.
After entering the valley, Xu Xinghe began to look around again. However, before he could recall the memory that had almost faded from his mind, No.108 had already flown directly to a place.
A hint of joy flashed across He Yiming's eyes as he said, "Many thanks, Brother Xu."
Xu Xinghe was stunned for a moment. He saw that Hundred and Eight had stopped somewhere and dug out a red triangular grass from there.
Only then did he put down a huge rock in his heart.
If he remembered wrongly, or if the strange herbs here had withered, he really did not know how to explain it to He Yiming.
After searching around, He Yiming found quite a number of such herbs. However, what was shocking was that in this large area, only this valley covered by two mountain peaks, where almost no life would enter, had this kind of medicinal herb.
Other than that, there was nothing else within a radius of tens of miles.
Xu Xinghe saw the gratified expression on He Yiming's face. His heart moved slightly as he said, "Elder He, if these medicinal herbs are useful to you, then how about I gather some back and ask Senior Brother Hao to cultivate them?"
He Yiming only pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement. However, he did not have much hope.
These herbs could only grow in this valley, which meant that their growth conditions were quite harsh. The chances of successfully cultivating them outside were not high.
