Soon, Jiang Shinian also told Shaodian Shi and Nü Deng about his plan to travel through the prehistoric Primordial Wilderness and complete the "Compendium of the Classic of Herbal Medicine ".
Despite their deep concern for Jiang Shinian, Shaodian Shi and Nü Deng did not try to stop him when they heard this.
She simply held Jiang Shinian 'Jiang Shinian hand with teary eyes, urging him to take good care of himself.
Jiang Shinian readily agreed, not wanting to worry his parents.
After spending some time with his parents, Jiang Shinian soon bid farewell to the rest of the tribe.
He then left the Lieshan Tribe with the basket on his back.
Before leaving, Jiang Shinian also imparted some knowledge to the tribe members.
Those were some things he had discovered by chance while trying various Spiritual Plant over the years.
He discovered that certain combinations of Spiritual Plant seemed to have some additional benefits.
For example, taking Qingjing Zhencao (清静真草) and Hongguanggen (虹光根) together can temporarily strengthen the mind and spirit.
For example, the Tengshe Bao, when combined with Danyang Rui, can increase a person's cultivation speed by ten thousand years.
Furthermore, taking Dragon Eye Grass and Flowing Sun Flower together for a period of time can make one's genitals as firm as refined gold, lasting for a long time without fatigue, and may even allow for a second development!
Jiang Shinian may not know this, but at least in the Lieshan Tribe at that time, many people heard about the wonderful uses of Longqingcao and Liuyanghua.
Their eyes lit up.
Especially those tribespeople who have wives.
Without saying a word, he hurriedly ran towards the mountains and forests.
Some of them were even excitedly discussing how much they wanted to pick while running.
Tonight, a burst of virility or something.
After Jiang Shinian left the Lieshan Tribe, Fuxi quietly followed in his footsteps.
The human emperor maintained a proper distance throughout, silently observing Jiang Shinian's every move.
They were observing whether this young man possessed the character to succeed the next Human Emperor.
To Fuxi's surprise, Jiang Shinian's movements were completely unlike those of others, who seemed to have no clear purpose.
He was like a true herb gatherer, going wherever he pleased and finding peace in whatever came his way.
His footprints can be seen on the mountain peaks, and his figure can be seen exploring the deep valleys. Even dangerous swamps and dense forests cannot stop his dedication to plants.
Sometimes, he would linger for days over a single, inconspicuous weed.
Sometimes, he would wait for ten thousand years for an unripe wild fruit, just to record its entire growth cycle.
His basket was always filled with all sorts of flowers, fruits, and Spiritual Plant, each labeled with detailed descriptions of its characteristics.
What moved Fuxi even more was Jiang Shinian's benevolence.
Whenever he encounters an injured creature, whether human, earth spirit, or Demon Race, he will not hesitate to take out his treasured elixirs and give them to it.
After healing the wounded, he would patiently teach them his healing methods, never holding anything back.
"This medicine is warm in nature and is best taken with morning dew..."
"The wound needs to be cleaned with Qingling Grass juice first..."
"Remember, Moonflower can only be harvested during a full moon..."
Even before Jiang Shinian left, he would pass on some of his notes to them.
Gradually, rumors of a mysterious Daoist began to circulate throughout the Primordial Wilderness.
Although no one knows his name, his figure, carrying a bamboo basket and exuding the fragrance of medicine, has become a symbol of hope in the hearts of many.
The creatures he healed affectionately called him " Shennong ".
Fuxi followed behind Jiang Shinian, the look of satisfaction in his eyes growing ever stronger.
Humanity is now powerful, so there is no need to worry about other races opposing us.
Therefore, it's not bad to have such a kind-hearted Human Emperor.
In this way, the human race wouldn't be too ostentatious.
Time flies.
I don't know how much time has passed.
On this day, when Jiang Shinian finished recording the characteristics of the last Spiritual Plant, his hands trembled slightly as he closed the Classic of Herbal Medicine formed from Dao Rhyme.
This book, the culmination of his life's work, the " The Classic of Herbal Medicine," is finally complete!
While I wouldn't claim to have included all the Spiritual Plant of the Primordial Wilderness, I have recorded the characteristics of over 99% of the plants.
From the most common wild grass to rare and precious plants, he personally experienced and meticulously recorded each one.
Today, Jiang Shinian is no longer the spirited man he once was.
The frost and snow had etched deep lines on his face, and the spots on his skin gave it an unhealthy bluish-purple hue.
But those eyes remained as bright as ever, even more profound and expressive than when they were young.
"Finally... it's finished..."
Jiang Shinian stroked the seemingly thin yet incredibly weighty the Classic of Herbal Medicine before him, tears of relief welled in his eyes.
At that very moment, a sudden storm arose in the heavens, and a vast golden cloud of merit condensed in the void.
The dazzling golden light cascaded down like a waterfall, illuminating the surrounding area for miles around.
This sudden celestial phenomenon drew the attention of countless creatures in the surrounding area.
Some greedy people thought it was the birth of Innate Spiritual Treasure and rushed toward the source of the golden light with bloodshot eyes.
However, when they realized that the one who caused the strange phenomenon was actually Shennong, who had traveled through the Primordial Wilderness for many years, the greed in their eyes instantly turned into respect.
"So it was Shennong here..."
"No wonder he has accumulated such immense merit..."
"Is that the Classic of Herbal Medicine he compiled?! Has he finally finished it?!"
The crowd murmured amongst themselves, but no one dared to step forward and disturb them.
Because everyone knows just how extraordinary and great this seemingly ordinary Daoist, who is only at the early stage of Mystic Immortal cultivation, truly is.
Jiang Shinian always exuded a reassuring and peaceful aura, which he had cultivated through his experience with various herbs and his travels through the vast Primordial Wilderness.
This is also related to his temperament.
Bathed in the golden light of merit, he resembled an ancient pine tree that had weathered many storms yet remained ever more upright.
The creatures around looked at this sky full of merit, their eyes filled with only heartfelt admiration.
Over the years, countless lives have benefited from Jiang Shinian's kindness.
He not only treated the sick and saved lives, but also generously shared his knowledge of medicine.
Therefore, these people showed no sign of envy whatsoever.
In the hearts of many, Shennong undoubtedly deserved this merit.
The golden light of merit gradually merged into the body.
Jiang Shinian's cultivation level also broke through from the early stage of Mystic Immortal to the early stage of Primordial Origin Golden Immortal.
Even the Hundred Herbs Scripture in his hand shone with dazzling light, transforming from an ordinary acquired object into Postnatal Merit Supreme Treasure.
After Jiang Shinian broke through, Fuxi, who had been hiding behind Jiang Shinian, finally stopped hiding at this moment.
Instead, it appeared in front of Jiang Shinian.
Some highly skilled beings in the vicinity gasped in shock the moment they saw Fuxi.
With their level of cultivation, they naturally knew the person before them.
But what they didn't expect was that Jiang Shinian would attract this person to descend.
But on second thought, it makes sense.
After all, Jiang Shinian has now been promoted to Primordial Origin Golden Immortal thanks to the blessing of his merits.
Even without such cultivation.
The name ' Shennong ' is sufficient!
This name was given to Jiang Shinian by the beings of the Primordial Wilderness era.
After all, Jiang Shinian's actions are truly admirable.
In order to compile a list of the world's most precious herbs, he tasted all kinds of herbs.
Everyone was convinced.
What Fuxi said to Shennong the next second was like a thunderclap from the heavens, landing heavily in the minds of all living beings around them.
The surrounding area became completely silent!
" Jiang Shinian, are you willing to become the Human Emperor of my race?!"
