Su Fan did not need to know how to identify Immortal Herbs.

He only needed to name the Immortal Herbs he wanted, and Aromatic Silk Beauty would point them out for him.

The first was the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew he had requested.

Aromatic Silk Beauty directly pointed him toward an Immortal Herb bearing several crystal-clear drops of dew.

"That one. You drink the dew. Once you finish it, the leaves will wither and die immediately. Don't worry about it."

When Su Fan went to pick the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, his expression was rather surprised.

Because what Aromatic Silk Beauty had said was exactly the correct way to use the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew. There had been no deception whatsoever.

What he did not know was that Aromatic Silk Beauty truly had no idea how much Su Fan knew about Immortal Herbs. Following the principle of making fewer mistakes by doing less, it had not tried to be clever.

Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, normal Immortal Herbs, plus the Ice and Fire Golden Body Refinement—this was already theoretically the best plan for absorbing multiple Immortal Herbs at once. Since Su Fan could name it, Aromatic Silk Beauty also knew that he had a thorough understanding of Immortal Herbs.

"The second Immortal Herb I want is—"

The effects of one Immortal Herb after another flashed through Su Fan's mind.

"Aromatic Silk Beauty!"

In truth, there were many Immortal Herbs Su Fan could absorb.

His martial soul was Apertures, which he cultivated as a Body Martial Soul. Now, he was also planning to attempt a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Ring for his third ring, placing considerable pressure on his physical constitution. Immortal Herbs such as the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum and Earth Dragon Golden Melon were both suitable for him.

However, improvements to physical constitution could ultimately be temporarily replaced with other medicinal ingredients.

The improvement to talent and aptitude provided by Aromatic Silk Beauty was something the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum and the others could not compare to.

It could transform the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Pagoda, turning the impossible into possible.

It had forcibly extended the cultivation path of the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda.

Aromatic Silk Beauty was elegant and noble. Consuming it allowed one to absorb the essence of heaven and earth, as well as the radiance of the sun and moon.

This was exceptionally crucial to Su Fan's path of controlling heaven and earth.

Hearing that Su Fan wanted Aromatic Silk Beauty, Aromatic Silk Beauty did not hesitate and pointed it out to him.

"Um, I'll only take these two Immortal Herbs. Can I take some of the ordinary medicinal herbs outside?"

"What do you want?" Aromatic Silk Beauty was becoming somewhat impatient.

It could only give him one Immortal Herb, yet he had insisted on adding the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew.

Now, it had given him two Immortal Herbs.

And he was asking for more again?

Still, Su Fan had only said he wanted ordinary medicinal herbs, which Youyou found acceptable.

The ordinary medicinal herbs throughout the valley had already grown everywhere. Letting Su Fan take a batch would not affect anything.

"Um, I don't know much about ordinary medicinal herbs. Could you recommend some for me? Ones that can strengthen physical constitution, help recover from injuries after intense training, and consolidate one's foundation and nourish one's vitality."

A question mark slowly appeared above Aromatic Silk Beauty's head.

Here he went again!

"Human, you're pushing your luck!"

Infernal Delicate Apricot could no longer stand watching from the side.

He had insisted on asking for another Immortal Herb.

Then he wanted ordinary medicinal herbs.

And they even had to use their brains to recommend them to him?

Su Fan pursed his lips and ignored Infernal Delicate Apricot.

"That one, that one, and that one..."

Youyou glanced at the level-six Fixed Soul Guidance Shell Su Fan was clutching tightly in his arms and endured it.

They had already given him two Immortal Herbs. They could not let it all go to waste at this point, could they?

The sunk cost was too high.

It merely pointed out the herbs to Su Fan.

It did not tell Su Fan how to use them.

"Get lost already."

Youyou's tone was also somewhat impatient now.

Su Fan had gotten everything he wanted, so he did not care about Youyou's unfriendly tone.

"I'm leaving. Thanks. Don't worry, I won't reveal this place to the outside world."

He had originally wanted to leave his name, but after thinking it over, Su Fan ultimately said nothing.

The Soul Tool on his back expelled a large amount of gas, propelling him toward the outside of the valley.

The Green Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flowers outside did not stop him. Su Fan traveled without obstruction and quickly left the Sunset Forest.

After landing, Su Fan let out a breath of relief.

His spiritual power entered his storage bracelet, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled upward.

He quickly took out the numerous medicinal herbs and stored them in specially prepared jade boxes.

It had not been convenient for him to do that inside the valley earlier.

Now that he had stored away the many ten-thousand-year spiritual medicines, he finally relaxed.

These ten-thousand-year spiritual medicines could make up, to a certain extent, for his failure to absorb the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum.

Without lingering outside for long, Su Fan returned to the Dou Ling Empire.

Rather than going to Lingdou City, he returned to the Su Family in Eastsea City.

Only after returning home did Su Fan truly relax.

He was not completely unfamiliar with ten-thousand-year spiritual medicines.

After all, he had already set his requirements for the spiritual medicines. Before setting out, he had been able to consult relevant materials and see which spiritual medicines could consolidate one's foundation, nourish one's vitality, and strengthen one's physique.

Among the herbs Aromatic Silk Beauty had pointed out were several he had researched.

"Brother, could you find someone to refine these herbs for me?"

Su Fan did not tell Su Tian about the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, but he did not hide the fact that he had obtained a batch of ten-thousand-year spiritual medicines.

Su Tian did not ask any questions either, secretly finding someone to refine the medicinal herbs into pills for him.

As for Su Fan, he began absorbing the Immortal Herbs.

First came Aromatic Silk Beauty, which he consumed.

The level-thirty bottleneck was broken almost in an instant.

Su Fan did not know how much he improved afterward.

The Apertures within his body also rapidly reached 108.

After finishing the absorption, he had no time to feel out his improvement. He took out the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, brought it to his mouth, and the droplets melted into his mouth.

In the next instant, the herb itself rapidly withered.

A cool current circulated through his body once before swiftly surging upward, shooting straight toward the crown of his head.

The current circulated through his eyes once, and Su Fan felt a noticeable improvement in his vision.

While the cool energy circulated through his eyes, it also followed an unseen guidance and nourished his spirit.

At that moment, he activated every Aperture in his body.

The 108 Apertures, along with his manifested martial soul, made a total of 360 Apertures that exerted their strength together.

The Heavenly Circuit Apertures covered his entire body.

The strengthening of his body gradually fed back into his soul.

Combined with the power of the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, Su Fan only felt his perspective rising.

Boom!

An explosive sound like the creation of heaven and earth echoed through Su Fan's mind.

A stretch of space appeared within his perception.

That was the Sea of Consciousness.

As the Sea of Consciousness opened, the cool current no longer continued circulating through his eyes. Instead, Su Fan guided it into the Sea of Consciousness.

The Sea of Consciousness.

Having condensed a spiritual body, Su Fan had no intention of wasting any time.

A phantom Aperture condensed directly above the Sea of Consciousness.

The cool current merged into it and solidified it in the blink of an eye.

Unfortunately, Su Fan had yet to determine the rules for condensing Soul Apertures. He could only condense one Aperture in this central position first.

He continued using the remaining power to strengthen this Soul Aperture.

He also guided his spiritual power into it.

After being tempered by the Soul Aperture, his spiritual power clearly became more solid.

After a long while, the power of the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew was finally exhausted.

Su Fan opened his eyes as well.

His ears and eyes were clear.

His spirit was full.

His body was fulfilled.

These sensations corresponded to his improvements in different areas.
