Unrivaled Medicine God

by <unknown>

  Xiong Tie hurriedly said, “As long as it can treat Clan Head’s fire poison, don’t talk about 50 pieces, even 80 pieces are fine too!”

  Ye Yuan glanced at Xiong Tie and said with a nod, “Alright, deal! However . . . 50 pieces of Firesource Crystals must be given to me first!”

  . . . . . .

  Ye Yuan followed Xiong Tie to the bear clan’s main camp. Before long, Xiong Tie placed 50 pieces of bright yellow crystal stones in front of Ye Yuan.

  Looking at these Firesource Crystals, Xiong Tie felt his flesh hurt too.

  These Firesource Crystals’ mining was not easy. Close to one year’s time, their bear clan also just extracted two to three hundred pieces.

  Clan Head alone used a hundred over pieces already. What was left in the clan right now was also just seventy to eighty pieces.

  The 80 pieces he told Ye Yuan previously was already all of the existing stock in the clan.

  “Brother Ye, the 50 pieces of Firesource Crystals, I’ve already handed to you. I wonder when can Brother Ye help Clan Head remove the poison?” Xiong Tie said.

  Actually, he was still very dubious about Ye Yuan. After all, Ye Yuan only had Tier 4 cultivation. If not for Xiong Hui saying that Ye Yuan’s combat strength was astonishing; far surpassing ordinary Tier 5 experts, moreover, even possessing dragon race bloodline, Xiong Tie would not take this risk either.

  Even so, Xiong Tie was still guarded against Ye Yuan and already laid down a tight encirclement in the clan. If Ye Yuan only came to swindle Firesource Crystals, he would kill Ye Yuan mercilessly!

  Xiong Tie could not think of any ways at all right now, and only chose to trust Ye Yuan in his helplessness. The shamans in the clan have already convened together for many days and examined many records. But no one could remove the fire poison at all.

  Ye Yuan took up a piece of Firesource Crystal and said smilingly, “No hurry, no hurry. Wait until after I refine all of these Firesource Crystals, then I can take action.”

  Xiong Tie’s expression darkened slightly as he said, “Brother Ye don’t joke around. How long would it take to wait until you refine all of these Firesource Crystals? By that time, wouldn’t Clan Head be tormented to death by this fire poison? Furthermore, the Purple Flood Dragon Clan is glaring like a ravening tiger and wouldn’t give us such a long time at all!”

  Xiong Tie could not be blamed for turning hostile. Xiong Zhan refining these Firesource Crystals, it was basically a piece every three days. By the time Ye Yuan finished refining all of these 50 pieces of Firesource Crystals, wouldn’t it need several month’s time?

  Moreover, refining these Firesource Crystals had fire poison! With Ye Yuan’s strength, 50 pieces were enough to claim his life!

  At that time, it would be too late!

  Ye Yuan did not answer Xiong Tie. Lightly supporting the Firesource Crystal in his palm, a lotus flower crept out from his palm.

  This lotus flower was precisely the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus!

  The Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus seeing the Firesource Crystal was immediately like being injected with stimulants, directly entangling over.

  Under Xiong Tie’s astonished gaze, the bright yellow Firesource Crystal faded at a speed visible to the naked eye! All the way until it became a piece of plain old stone!

  “Turns out that Brother Ye wanting these Firesource Crystals was actually in order to nurture essence fire! It’s just that this sort of absorbing process, can Brother Ye endure it?” Xiong Tie said in surprise.

  The firesource power in Firesource Crystals was extremely tyrannical. Even if a Tier 6 expert was refining, he needed to be very cautious too. A moment of carelessness and one would damage their meridians.

  But Ye Yuan did not take this to heart at all. Using less than 15 minutes to refine an entire piece of Firesource Crystal, was this any different from courting death?

  Ye Yuan said smilingly, “Young Lord Xiong Tie rest assured. This Ye naturally won’t treat his own life as a joke. I want these Firesource Crystals precisely for the sake of letting the essence fire advance. And removing the clan head’s fire poison also requires borrowing the power of a Tier 5 essence fire. With this, has Young Lord’s mind been put at ease?”

  Chapter 649. Essence Fire Abnormal Change |

  Xiong Tie naturally did not have anything to feel worried about. He exited Ye Yuan’s room fully satisfied and contented and instructed that no one was allowed to come and disturb Ye Yuan.

  Of course, the tight encirclement laid down previously, he did not recall it.

  As the young lord, Xiong Tie’s intellect was much better compared to Xiong Hui’s.

  Without seeing the hare, why would he release the falcon?

  After Xiong Tie left, Ye Yuan started to let the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame absorb the firesource power.

  Ye Yuan was an expert in playing with fire. The speed of him absorbing the firesource power was completely not what Xiong Zhang could compare to.

  Basically, he could finish absorbing a piece of Firesource Crystal roughly every 15 minutes or so.

  At the rate of this absorbing speed, logically speaking, the fire poison would flare up very quickly. But to Ye Yuan, this was not an issue at all.

  Ye Yuan had refined the Origin Magnetism Spirit Wood and was already impervious to a hundred poisons. Even if he did not have the Origin Magnetism Spirit Wood, refining the fire poison was also just something which expended a little effort.

  If Ye Yuan could be corroded by some puny little fire poison, then he, an Alchemy Emperor, would also be a waste.

  The Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus greedily absorbed the firesource power. Its aura became increasingly stronger.

  Originally, there were only four petals on the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus. But at this time, the fifth petal was currently faintly discernible. This was precisely the hallmark of it evolving to become Tier 5.

  In the entire secret chamber, a pale-yellow light halo dispersed. Furthermore, there was a trend of getting increasingly flourishing.

  All of a sudden, an extremely blinding light filled the entire secret chamber, shining until people could not open their eyes at all.

  When the light faded away, Ye Yuan knew that the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus finally advanced ranks!

  After advancing ranks, the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus came onto Ye Yuan’s palm with a slight flash. Only to see it bowed its body slightly at Ye Yuan. That manner actually seemed like thanking Ye Yuan.

  Ye Yuan had heart-to-heart telepathy with the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus long ago and naturally knew what meaning it was expressing.

  “Don’t need to be like this. You and I have long become one already. I naturally won’t abandon you and leave. Helping you advance ranks was also the promise that I gave you back then. Now, it can also be considered as fulfilling the promise. In the future, if there is the chance, I’ll naturally help you to go even further!” Ye Yuan said with a smile.

  The Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus was a psychic object. Back then, when the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus was subdued with Ye Yuan, Ye Yuan only had Spirit Condensation Realm cultivation.

  And now, several years had passed. The Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus actually could not quite keep up with Ye Yuan’s footsteps. It invariably worried a little that Ye Yuan would forsake it.

  Although it did not have human intelligence, following Ye Yuan for so long, its instincts told it that following Ye Yuan would have different encounters.

  In reality, the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus’s evolution speed these few years was far more rapid than it cultivating itself.

  A short two to three years time and it evolved from a Tier 4 essence fire to become a Tier 5 essence fire.

  If the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus slowly evolved itself, it also might not even be able to finish evolving in several decades to a hundred years.

  Therefore, its dependent relationship with Ye Yuan had already completely switched positions; becoming it clinging completely onto Ye Yuan.<

  The current Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus already could not do without Ye Yuan.

  Hearing Ye Yuan’s words, the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus startled trembling slightly, as if it was restraining itself from jumping with joy. If not for it having a lotus flower form, Ye Yuan would even feel that this was a small child.

  This discovery involuntarily startled Ye Yuan. Could it be . . .

  “Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus, release the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame!” Ye Yuan said to the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus.

  “Huuuu . . .”

  The Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus immediately puffed out a bundle of flames, scaring Ye Yuan until he stepped back promptly, almost burning his eyebrows to a char.

  “Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus, fly one round around the secret chamber!” Ye Yuan said again.

  Indeed, the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus started flying around the secret chamber very obediently.

  Following that, Ye Yuan tried out several commands again. The Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus actually completed them without exception!

  This discovery made Ye Yuan pleasantly surprised!

  The Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus after advancing ranks actually unlocked intellect!

  Although the intellect right now was still very weak, without any doubt, it really gave birth to intelligence!

  In the past, although Ye Yuan could control the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus, that was because he refined the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus and the flame lotus was like his servant that must do things according to his commands.

  But just now, Ye Yuan did not deploy the flame lotus. He only used words to communicate with the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus, and the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus completely understood his commands!

  This indicated that the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus already had its own consciousness!

  Ye Yuan naturally knew that essence fires could give birth to intellect under coincidental lucky chances. But it required an extremely heaven-defying fortuitous encounter.

  The vast majority of Tier 9 essence fire, though the power was heaven-defying, was just a killing or pill refining machine too. They were without intellect.

  Ye Yuan did not think that him helping the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus evolve actually let it to have an intellect!

  Essence fires with intellect and essence fires without intellect were two entirely different concepts.

  Essence fires with intellect would cultivate consciously, just like humans, and not rely entirely on instincts.

  This way, the cultivation speed would increase tremendously, and the evolution speed would also get faster.

  The Divine Realm and hundreds of millions of small worlds, the number of essence fires they had were too many to count. But only an extremely few numbers of essence fires could evolve successfully. And the vast majority of essence fires would all dissipate between heaven and earth in the end.

  Although the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus was an existence that stood out above the masses among Tier 4 essence fires, without Ye Yuan’s diligent nurturing these few years, its final outcome would also just be returning to nature.

  The Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus giving birth to intellect made Ye Yuan very surprised.

  He only felt that with the current conditions, chances of obtaining a new essence fire again was very low. Hence, he focused on nurturing all along, hoping to nurture the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus to become Tier 5.

  He did not expect that with an unintentional sowing, the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus actually unlocked intelligence on its own.

  “Heh heh, since you’ve already unlocked intelligence, then you’ll be my vital essence fire in the future. From today onwards, you’ll be called Fiery. I hope that you’ll give birth to a primordial spirit soon and achieve a primordial spirit body!” Ye Yuan said smilingly.

  The Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus’s petals opened and closed. Clearly, it was very happy with Ye Yuan’s words.

  When essence fires unlocked intelligence, after it evolved to a certain stage, it would give birth to a primordial spirit. This primordial spirit was similar to a human’s divine soul, while the flame lotus’s main body would be equivalent to the physical body.

  At that time, the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus would be roughly the same as a human. Furthermore, it also had the chance to assault the Deity Realm!

  In the Divine Dao Era, although instances of essence fires becoming deities were few, it was also not without.

  Moreover, once essence fires became deities, the might of their strength was unimaginable.

  To Ye Yuan, the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus becoming his vital essence fire was undoubtedly the best option.

  The Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame’s powerful purifying power was an alchemist’s greatest assistance. Once it evolved to become a Tier 9 essence fire, that might would be inconceivable; absolutely the essence fire that all alchemists yearned for even in their sleep!

  “Come. Since you’ve already advanced, let’s go and remove poison for that bear clan’s clan head! There is nothing more suitable than using your purifying power to treat fire poison!” Ye Yuan said smilingly.

  Regarding Xiong Zhan’s fire poison, if not because he had an existence like the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus, Ye Yuan would really be at a loss on what to do.

  No matter how powerful Ye Yuan was, he could not possibly refine Tier 6 medicinal pills too. But with the formidable purifying power of the Cleansing Sandal Flame Lotus, that was why Ye Yuan dared to guarantee this.

  When Ye Yuan came out, Xiong Tie had already waited for a long time outside. Seeing Ye Yuan come out so quickly, Xiong Tie was also slightly surprised.

  This was only less than a day’s time, and he already completed refining that many Firesource Crystals?

  Chapter 650. No Other Choice |

  “Brother Ye, we . . . Can we start?”

  Seeing Ye Yuan, Xiong Tie was thinking whether or not he was being funny, to actually place such stake on this brat who had not even reached Tier 5.

  Ye Yuan nodded and said, “En. We can begin at any time.”

  “This . . . Brother Ye has just absorbed the Firesource Crystals. Are you not going to . . . rest for a bit?”

  Xiong Tie was somewhat suspicious now whether Ye Yuan really refined those Firesource Crystals, or he kept it himself.

  Refining 80 pieces of Firesource Crystals within a day, was this sheer nonsense?

  Even if Ye Yuan’s speed was really that fast, could it be that he did not care about the fire poison? Could it be that he did not care about the tyrannical firesource power?

  Ye Yuan was just about to speak when Xiong Hui ran over flusteredly and said, “Young Lord, things are bad! The Purple Flood Dragon Clan seems to have discovered something! Zi Feng has already brought the Purple Flood Dragon Clan and moved out in full force, heading for our territory!”

  Xiong Tie’s expression changed drastically when he heard that and hurriedly said to Ye Yuan, “Brother Ye, I’ll bring you to see Clan Head right away! Our Firesource True Dipper Bear Clan’s hope is all on you! I hope that you won’t deceive me!”

  Ye Yuan did not show much surprise when he heard this news. Even though Xiong Tie’s mind was sharper than Xiong Hui’s, he was still a big dumb bear in the end. This point, inklings could be seen from his arrangements after Xiong Zhan got poisoned.

  The flood dragon clan was innately insidious and skeptical. The bear clan having so many suspicious movements, how could they not have any happenings at all?

  At this time, Xiong Tie already had no time to hesitate. He could only stake all hope on Ye Yuan.

  Even if Ye Yuan was really a great swindler, he had to pinch his nose and to acknowledge what had to be done. And the price if it failed was the lives of all of their bear clan!

  Zi Feng was the Purple Flood Dragon Clan’s Clan Head, whose strength was on par with Xiong Zhan. If Xiong Zhan was unable to recover his strength, then the bear clan only had the path of collapse they could walk
.

  “Young Lord Xiong Tie rest assured. Leave the clan head to me,” Ye Yuan said coolly.

  Xiong Tie nodded his head and said, “Xiong Hui, go and invite First Elder over! After I bring Brother Ye to see Clan Head, we’ll go and stop Zi Feng together with you guys!”

  The bear clan’s strength was much stronger than the Jade Faced Fairy Fox Clan’s. Not only did they have a peak initial-stage Tier 6 clan head, they even had an initial-stage Tier 6 First Elder. Except, that First Elder did not meddle with worldly affairs. The matters in the clan were basically all passed to Xiong Tie to manage.

  Seeing Xiong Tie instructed this, Ye Yuan hurriedly said, “Young Lord Xiong Tie, you mustn’t!”

  “En? What do Brother Ye’s words mean?” Xiong Tie said in surprise.

  Ye Yuan said, “Young Lord mustn’t assume an appearance like facing a great enemy, and also don’t invite your First Elder to come out of retirement. As long as you let him pay attention to the development of the situation at all times will do. When Young Lord comes across that Zi Feng, just say that Clan Head Xiong Zhan is currently in closed-seclusion and will be ready to leave seclusion in a few days. Make sure not to reveal nervousness. The Purple Flood Dragon Clan are definitely still unable to verify the news right now. That’s why they would put on such a great fanfare. It’s in order to demonstrate their might to cow the tiger. You guys reacting too intensely will fit right in with their wishes. When the situation is detrimental, pretend to be very powerful to deter the enemy. When you’re very powerful, put on a weak appearance to bait the enemy. Understood?”

  Xiong Tie seemed to have understood, but he also seemed to not understand. But he felt that what Ye Yuan said was very reasonable.

  But at this time, Xiong Tie could not think too much. He nodded his head and brought Ye Yuan to go see Xiong Zhan.

  When Ye Yuan saw this scene, he could not help sighing in his heart too. This big dumb bear clan was really enough to choke on.
