The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 4799

“Phoenixica?”

Charlie frowned slightly when he heard this word.

There was indeed a medicinal herb called ‘Phoenixica’ in the Apocalyptic Book. This medicinal herb was also extremely rare in the records of the Apocalyptic Book and was described as a rare heavenly treasure that could be sought but not found.

The reason why it was said to be a heavenly treasure was because this medicinal herb was not only extremely rare but also died very easily during the growth process.

The germination-to-death process for a vast majority of Phoenixica would only last from three to five years, and very few could last for more than ten years. This kind of plant must grow for more than fifty years before its vines would begin to woodify, which was also referred to as lignification in botany.

However, the process for Phoenixica to woodify was extremely slow, and it would take at least more than a hundred years at least for it to completely woodify from the inside to the outside.

What was rarest about this medicinal herb was that only Phoenixica which had lignified completely had medicinal value.

Alas, these herbs were rare, and most of them could not live to the age to start lignification. Even if they lived to that age, very few could complete the entire lignification process. So, this herb was much rarer compared to a thousand-year-old ginseng, a thousand-year-old reishi mushroom, and even a ten-thousand-year-old Tridacna.

In the real sense, looking for a Phoenixica which had real value was equivalent to finding someone who had lived a hundred and twenty years or even a hundred and fifty years and was not paralyzed, blind, or deaf.

Its rarity could be imagined.
