Searching for Medicinal Herbs

Even after the beautiful Xiao Yi Xian appeared before him, Xiao Yan was still questioning his life.

"You've been Fire Toxin?"

Seeing the fiery red light in Xiao Yan's eyes, Xiao Yi Xian instantly understood Xiao Yan's physical condition, immediately embraced Xiao Yan, and kissed him.

In an instant, Xiao Yan Yixian completely drained the Fire Toxin from Xiao Yi Xian Yan's body, just like a whale sucking up a river.

"Hmm, you're still better."

Xiao Yan hugged Xiao Yi Xian, who wanted to leave after absorbing the Fire Toxin, and took out the Green Fire Crystal Card and tossed it to Qing Lin: "Go out and buy something to eat."

Qing Lin, who had been secretly watching with wide eyes, blushed immediately, took the Green Fire Crystal Card, and fled the room...

The next day, Xiao Yi Xian finally had a chance to talk to Xiao Yan about serious matters.

Zi Yan came to see Xiao Yan once during this period, but Xiao Yan was in seclusion at the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower at the time.

However, Zi Yan noticed that Xiao Yi Xian Yixian was at the Peak Dou Wang, so she dragged Xiao Yi Xian to find the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk.

The two women gave the Snow Demon Sky Ape a good beating. In the end, Zi Yan felt sorry for the Snow Demon Sky Ape and let it go. She and Xiao Yi Xian went underground to dig up the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk.

Xiao Yi Xian suggested giving the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk to Xiao Yan to refine Pills, Zi Yan agreed after thinking about it. Now the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk is with Xiao Yi Xian.

"The Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk... there is a Sixth Grade Pill called 'Bone Strengthening Powder' that uses the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk as its main ingredient. If Dou Wang takes it, he can cultivate smoothly all the way to the Dou Huang Realm, and will also have a slightly higher success rate when breaking through to the Dou Zong realm in the future."

"However, besides the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk, we also need a few other Medicinal Herbs. Let's go and look for them in the Medicinal Herb Repository. If we can't find them, we'll just have to go live in the mountains like wild men."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian rolled her eyes. After she and Xiao Yan finished dressing, they both summoned their Dou Qi Wings and flew towards the Medicinal Herb Repository.

Aside from some stored in the Library Pavilion, most of the Jia Nan Academy's precious Medicinal Herbs are probably kept in this Medicinal Herb Repository.

Therefore, the Medicinal Herb Repository was also surrounded by Spatial Barrier, with a Dou Wang- level elder guarding it and a group of mentors patrolling it.

However, in Xiao Yan's eyes, Elder Hao's role was limited to guarding against Zi Yan. After all, with the existence of the Spatial Barrier, only High-Level Dou Zong besides Zi Yan would have the ability to take away the Medicinal Herbs.

After Xiao Yan explained his purpose, Elder Hao generously handed over two snow-white Jade Token and accepted the Dou Ling Pill that Xiao Yan offered.

The difficulty of refining the Bone Strengthening Powder is comparable to that of the Imperial Pill. Xiao Yan's success rate is probably only 40% to 50%, but he needs to refine at least two pills for Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan respectively. Therefore, Xiao Yan needs to prepare five or even six portions of Medicinal Herbs.

Pushing open the wooden door and walking into the medicine storehouse, the two discovered that the entire interior was made of white jade, with both the floor and the ceiling radiating a faint, luxurious glow.

The room was very large, with several corridors, each lined with tall counters made entirely of white jade.

Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian split up and each entered a corridor to search for Medicinal Herbs.

The Medicinal Herbs needed for the Bone Strengthening Powder are not many. In addition to the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk, there are three Medicinal Herbs: Vajra Bodhi, Purple Spirit Body Sculpting Flower, and Dragon Blood Ganoderma.

The Medicinal Herb Repository was indeed well-stocked; Xiao Yan had already collected two Purple Spirit Body Sculpting Flower after walking down just one corridor.

However, Xiao Yan also discovered that it was unlikely to gather four or five sets of Medicinal Herbs here. Many Medicinal Herbs only had two or three sets, and some rare Medicinal Herbs only had one set.

"Perhaps Jia Nan Academy has other places to store Medicinal Herbs, such as the Library Pavilion?"

After searching through another corridor, Xiao Yan obtained a Vajra Bodhi.

When Xiao Yan entered the third corridor, he immediately saw a little girl in white with purple hair stealing Medicinal Herbs.

"Hey, eating?" Xiao Yan greeted him and continued searching for Dragon Blood Ganoderma in the corridor.

"Xiao Yan?" Zi Yan ran over excitedly, looked at the Spirit Gathering Fruit in her hand, then broke it in half and reluctantly handed the smaller half to Xiao Yan: "Please eat this!"

Seeing Zi Yan's reluctant expression, Xiao Yan couldn't help but chuckle, "You can eat it, I'm here to find Medicinal Herbs."

"Hmm?" Zi Yan stuffed both halves of the fruit into her mouth in one gulp, swallowed them whole, and then said, "Isn't it said that hiring Alchemist to make medicine always comes at a great cost?"

"If you want to spend money, I won't stop you, but let me warn you in advance that I'm going to refine Sixth Grade Pill!" Xiao Yan said with a smile, ruffling Zi Yan's hair.

"A Sixth Grade Pill!" Zi Yan had never eaten anything so good before. The best she had ever eaten was the Dou Ling Pill that Xiao Yan gave her.

"Hmm..." Zi Yan scratched her hair in distress, feeling somewhat at a loss due to Xiao Yan's kindness.

"Then, then I'll definitely share anything good I find with you in the future!" Zi Yan originally wanted to say "I'll protect you from now on," but her sister, who was covered in poison, was more powerful than her, and Xiao Yan's aura was no weaker than hers.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

"Hmph, I have a very strong sense for rare and precious medicinal herbs. As long as I'm willing to spend the time, I can find all these Medicinal Herbs in the mountains outside!"

"Yes, Zi Yan is amazing."

Zi Yan was in high spirits, chatting with Xiao Yan while picking up Medicinal Herbs from the white jade counter to eat.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan simply helped refine the Medicinal Herbs into a medicinal liquid, removed the impurities, and then condensed them into Pills, which he then handed to Zi Yan.

With Xiao Yan's help, Zi Yan was able to take her medicine much faster.

A dozen minutes later, Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian met up. Xiao Yi Xian had only found one Dragon Blood Ganoderma, while Xiao Yan had found two Purple Spirit Body Sculpting Flower and one Vajra Bodhi, which was only enough for one serving of Medicinal Herbs.

"Do you need Dragon Blood Ganoderma?" Zi Yan touched her stomach a little embarrassedly, and then said, "I ate two Dragon Blood Ganoderma."

"Let's go tell Elder Hao, and then we'll go with Zi Yan to the mountains to find Medicinal Herbs." Xiao Yan didn't mind.

"Leave it to me!" Zi Yan immediately perked up when she heard that her help was needed.

The three left the Medicinal Herb Repository to return the Jade Token. Elder Hao's originally smiling face instantly turned into a worried expression upon seeing Zi Yan: "Oh dear, my little darling, what brings you here again!"

"Put it on my head!" Xiao Yan said, holding Zi Yan down. "I'm going to refine a few Sixth Grade Pill soon. Elder Hao heard about this and secured an opportunity for the Alchemy Department to observe."

Alchemy cannot be disturbed, so a quiet environment is generally required. In addition, the methods of alchemy are often "secret techniques," making it virtually impossible for others to observe.

Similarly, watching the refining process of High-Grade Pill is extremely beneficial for ordinary Alchemist, and if possible, they would definitely be willing to pay a huge price to watch.

Elder Hao, who "fought for their opportunities," naturally gained a lot of favors.

"Hehe, it's just some Medicinal Herbs. It's nothing. Even if you didn't eat them, those people from the Alchemy Department would have tricked you out of them sooner or later anyway." Elder Hao understood the situation and instantly became amiable, which made Zi Yan very disgusted.
