Even if it's Queen Medusa, it seems not bad?

After introducing the effects of the two types of pills, Yao Lao looked at Lin Yan before him with a beaming smile and said, "Little friend, do you now understand why I didn't let you rush into your cultivation?"

Lin Yan's eyes naturally lit up, unable to contain his excitement.

He realized once again the immense benefit of having Yao Lao by his side.

It wasn't just about the assistance in cultivation or the safety and protection provided.

He could even keep his body in peak, robust condition.

It could be said that with Yao Lao around, there was no need to worry about any hidden dangers lurking within his body.

Because Yao Lao had always been extremely steady, adept at nipping such hazards in the bud.

Therefore, at this moment, there was only one word in Lin Yan's heart.

Awesome!

"Senior Yao Lao, do you know what phrase just came to my mind?"

Thinking of this, Lin Yan quickly cast his gaze toward Yao Lao.

Yao Lao asked with some curiosity, "Please, little friend, do tell."

Lin Yan replied with a smile, "Having an elder in the house is like having a treasure!"

"With Senior Yao Lao by my side, I don't know how many dangers you've helped me avoid!"

Hearing this, Yao Lao burst into laughter. "Little friend, your tongue! I think that's the real treasure! You've got this old man feeling quite happy!"

Lin Yan soon headed to the Medicine Hall in Green Sun Town to gather herbs.

Along the way, he unexpectedly ran into Wu Yun from the Mad Blade Martial Hall.

This time, upon seeing him, Wu Yun was even more respectful than before.

After all, having witnessed the strength Lin Yan displayed, even the usually arrogant Wu Yun couldn't help but feel genuinely convinced and impressed.

Therefore, it wasn't just Luo Cheng, the master of the Mad Blade Martial Hall, who had instructed Wu Yun to befriend Lin Yan; Wu Yun himself had the same intention.

"Brother Lin Yan, here to gather medicine?"

Wu Yun cupped his hands toward Lin Yan.

"What a coincidence, Brother Wu Yun, you're here too?"

Lin Yan replied to Wu Yun with a smile.

Wu Yun waved his hand. "Actually, this Medicine Hall is a property of our Mad Blade Martial Hall. I'm just here to check on things today."

Lin Yan nodded in surprise; he had been here many times before but was unaware of this until now.

He quickly prepared to gather his herbs. As for Wu Yun, when he saw the shopkeeper hand the packaged herbs to Lin Yan and noticed Lin Yan preparing to pay, he immediately refused.

"What are you doing, Brother Lin Yan?"

"If you need any medicinal materials in the future, just come and take them! No need to be so formal."

Lin Yan said, "Wouldn't that be inappropriate?"

Wu Yun pushed the money back. "What's inappropriate about it, Brother Lin Yan!"

"Not to mention that our Mad Blade Martial Hall has always been on good terms with your Lin Clan!"

"Even during the last Hunting War, we received support from the Lin Clan."

"So, what does this little bit of stuff matter?"

"Brother Lin Yan, just accept it!"

Saying this, Wu Yun feigned anger. "Or is it that Brother Lin Yan doesn't want to acknowledge me as a friend?"

With the matter put this way, Lin Yan had no choice but to agree. "Then many thanks for your kind intentions, Brother Wu Yun."

He soon returned to the backyard.

Afterward, he began the refinement of the second-grade pills.

Now, Lin Yan had become very proficient in refining second-grade pills.

Therefore, by following the prescriptions, Lin Yan easily refined both types of pills.

Entering his room, Lin Yan quickly began practicing the Green Origin Technique.

As a third-rate cultivation technique, the Green Origin Technique could only open up four meridians.

But for Lin Yan, the greater significance of the Green Origin Technique lay in verifying a new cultivation method he had hypothesized earlier.

So, at this moment, Lin Yan did not mind the low grade of the technique.

Inside the room, Lin Yan first swallowed the Sensing Pill.

As the pill entered his stomach, Lin Yan immediately felt his perception of his own body become much clearer.

He began searching for the special meridians described in the Green Origin Technique, and soon, he located the first one within his body!

Lin Yan controlled the soul power within him, aimed it at the slightly obstructed meridian, and thrust it in forcefully!

The meridian was instantly flooded with soul power, and the formidable force squeezed inward continuously, as if trying to force out all of Lin Yan's origin energy, which caused him to feel a wave of intense pain.

However, this pain had long been within Lin Yan's expectations.

After swallowing the Vein-Nourishing Pill he had prepared in advance, Lin Yan once again manipulated the Origin Energy within his body, driving it inward in wave after wave, continuously and unceasingly.

Under this constant development, the meridians that had previously been somewhat blocked gradually began to clear.

For the period that followed, Lin Yan remained focused on developing the special meridians within his body.

Through this process, Lin Yan realized just how important the assistance of medicinal pills truly was.

If not for the aid of the pills, every attempt to develop his meridians would have left him in agonizing pain.

Fortunately, with the help of the pills, Lin Yan not only found the correct meridians on the first try every time, but he could also use the pills to nourish his body while he developed them.

Thus, after a month of development, Lin Yan finally finished opening all four meridians within his body.

Lin Yan circulated his Origin Energy once more and felt that the speed of its flow was several times faster than before!

This meant that when Lin Yan was in actual combat, he would be able to unleash even more formidable explosive power!

"Good, good, good!"

"To have such an effect, it was not a waste of my hard cultivation over this past month."

Lin Yan was quite satisfied with this. Feeling the Origin Energy circulating with greater speed, a smile appeared on his face.

"Indeed, not bad."

"I never expected that cultivation techniques from two different worlds could actually complement each other. Little friend, this ingenious idea of yours has opened up a whole new world."

Seeing this, Yao Lao could not help but offer his praise.

Although the cultivation process was quite troublesome, the results were extremely significant.

Even Yao Lao was quite moved after seeing these results.

Therefore, if he were to truly reshape his physical body in the future, it was very likely that he would adopt this cultivation method to perfect his own cultivation system.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss~"

At this moment, the Na Ring flashed with a spiritual light. Following this, a small nine-colored snake suddenly darted out, flicking its tongue and affectionately rubbing against Lin Yan's hand.

"So it's you, little one."

"Are you hungry?"

Seeing this, Lin Yan stroked the head of the Nine-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python, his gaze quite gentle.

The small snake before him was naturally the Nine-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python that Lin Yan had obtained from checking in at the Hunting Grounds that day.

Come to think of it, this little snake's growth was truly rapid.

In just over a month, it had grown from the original twenty centimeters to its current size of about sixty centimeters.

Moreover, her strength had also grown quickly. Previously, when Lin Yan took her to the Back Mountain to fish, she had encountered a few demonic beasts with strength comparable to the seventh or eighth level of Body Tempering and had simply whipped them to death with her tail. Lin Yan felt her strength was nearly on par with the Earth Origin Realm.

The only drawback was that her appetite was too large. If it weren't for the fact that Lin Yan now had the support of the Lin Clan and the pills he refined were more effective than raw medicinal herbs, Lin Yan felt he might not truly be able to afford to raise this little one.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss~"

The little snake continued to blink its eyes at Lin Yan.

"Alright, alright, I'll feed you."

Lin Yan felt a mix of amusement and helplessness at this.

He hurriedly took out specially made fire-attribute and wood-attribute pills for her to enjoy.

Watching the little snake quickly finish her meal and rub against his hand in a fawning manner, Lin Yan felt that her charming appearance was becoming more and more like Queen Medusa.

This made Lin Yan unable to help but sigh with emotion.

"Sigh, could it really be Queen Medusa?"

"It really does feel a bit like her."

"However..."

"Judging by how close she is to me now, even if she is Queen Medusa, it seems... that wouldn't be so bad, would it?"

Thinking of this, the image of Medusa's fiery figure could not help but surface in Lin Yan's mind.

Even he could not help but feel his gaze grow heated.

There was no helping it; she was just too top-tier.
