Unrivaled Medicine God c1-2204

by Feng Yise

  The way he saw it, with the assistance of medicinal pills, as long as talent was not too poor, breaking through to the Soul Sea Realm was something that was easy to accomplish.

  Nanfeng Zhirou's talent was not considered bad. But compared to genuine geniuses, there was still quite a disparity.

  Hence, Ye Yuan saying ten years was actually already a broader time frame.

  But these words totally did not sound like that from how Nanfeng Zhirou heard it. It was simply like bragging to the skies.

  "Will you die if you don't brag? Ten years to breakthrough to the Soul Sea Realm, then you can be the Tranquil Cloud Sect's Sect Leader already!" Nanfeng Zhirou said with a face full of disdain.

  Only now did Ye Yuan react as he seemed to realize that what he just said was a little over the top. With Nanfeng Zhirou's horizons, she simply could not understand it.

  "Haha, this was also found out by you. We'd better hurry up. Otherwise, it wouldn't be worth it if we will get killed by that old freak."

  "I know that you were bragging! But can't you just think first before saying all that?" Nanfeng Zhirou rolled her eyes at Ye Yuan.

  Chapter 167 - Essence Fire Born!

  "Roar!"

  Right then, a colossal cry sounded out.

  A large bird howled through the air and stopped in front of the bunch of demonic beasts, facing off with Black Crow Old Man across a distance.

  After that large bird demonic beast appeared, the demonic beasts' side also retreated far away.

  "Hey hey, what demonic beast is that? Seems to be very amazing!"

  "What rubbish! To think that you're a demonic beast hunter, to actually not even recognize the Golden Sword Condor! That's a Tier 4 demonic beast! I heard that this Golden Sword Condor is the lord of the Lotus Moon Gorge! Before this, it was lurking god knows where. Now that it saw the Black Crow Old Man appear, it also could not resist coming out."

  "Look at what you're saying. While I may be a demonic beast hunter, do you feel that I have the ability to hunt a Tier 4 demonic beast? It would be pretty good if he doesn't come to kill me."

  "Uh . . ."

  The appearance of the Golden Sword Condor also caused a commotion over at the human martial artists' side.

  Initially, they all felt that the treasure this time was most likely the Black Crow Old Man's already. But now, a Tier 4 demonic beast actually appeared. There was a good show to watch now.

  While the Sea Transformation Realm was not a major realm, the power of Sea Transformation Realm martial artists could already match the power of early-stage Tier 4 demonic beasts.

  Like human martial artists, Tier 4 demonic beasts, at this level, the span of power is exceptionally huge.

  The vast majority of demonic beasts would all stop at Tier 4 in the end. Because the advancement from Tier 4 to Tier 5 is too tough.

  From Tier 4 to Tier 5, they would experience the most important phase for demonic beasts that is Taking Form!

  Demonic beasts who successfully took form would be like a fish leaping over the Dragon Gate; becoming an extremely powerful existence.

  Demonic beasts who failed to take form would become ashes under the Heavenly Tribulation!

  Hence, the entire stage for Tier 4 demonic beasts was virtually all for the sake of preparing for this Heavenly Tribulation!

  This also resulted in the differences in strength being extremely huge for Tier 4 demonic beasts.

  Normally speaking, Early Stage and Middle Stage Tier 4 was equivalent to human Sea Transformation Realm. But Late Stage Tier 4 demonic beasts was equivalent to human Soul Sea Realm!

  This Golden Sword Condor should have just broken through to Tier 4 not long ago. In terms of power, it was probably the same as the Black Crow Old Man.

  Therefore, the current situation became quite subtle.

  Seeing a Tier 4 demonic beast appearing, the human martial artists were close to losing all hope.

  A Black Crow Old Man already made them lose all chances of snatching the treasure. With the addition of a Tier 4 demonic beast, wouldn't that be deadly?

  Ye Yuan was not surprised to see this Tier 4 demonic beast.

  This place was the Endless Forest; it was the territory of demonic beasts right from the start. It would be even weirder if no high-level demonic beasts came over!

  Moreover, Ye Yuan was currently secretly delighted. These two fellows would surely battle it out to seize the treasure. At that time, he could just sit down and reap the spoils without lifting a finger.

  The Black Crow Old Man shot a glance at the Golden Sword Condor not far away, gave a cold snort, and simply sat down to meditate.

  Tier 4 demonic beasts had extremely high intellect. It clearly did not wish to strike at this moment, so it similarly landed on the ground to conserve strength and build up energy.

  "Senior Apprentice Sister, I reckon that the treasure will be born today. To be able to attract a Sea Transformation Realm and Tier 4 demonic beast over, this treasure most likely isn't simple. In a while, you'd better enter the spatial artifact. This way, I can search for the treasure with full force. I have a feeling that this treasure is very important to me so Senior Apprentice Sister will have to put up with this a little," Ye Yuan advised very earnestly.

  Nanfeng Zhirou clenched her jaw tightly, and her face changed a few times.

  Was she still going to be of no help at all in the end? A fierce unwillingness was born in her heart!

  But she also knew that with Sea Transformation Realm experts here, she really could not help Ye Yuan with anything. Not dragging him down was already pretty good.

  Even though Ye Yuan's strength was not great, he had endless streams of means and methods. Searching for the treasure alone might be somewhat safer instead.

  "Fi-Fine then." Nanfeng Zhirou finally relented.

  Ye Yuan was overjoyed. He brought Nanfeng Zhirou to a place with nobody around and put her away inside the spatial artifact.

  Right at this time, an extremely powerful heatwave spread out from the depths of the gorge, making all the martial artists feel like they were being cooked.

  But everyone perked up because they all knew that the treasure came into being!

  Ye Yuan saw the situation and his expression was also one of joy.

  "Is it possible that an essence fire came into being? Such a powerful essence fire, I'm afraid that it's at least Tier 4! This trip was indeed the right call!"

  Ye Yuan's experience was far beyond what these people could compare to. He could guess from this wave the general situation of the treasure born this time.

  The so-called essence fire referred to the fire-seed born from the heaven and earth. Its might was extremely powerful!

  The moment a martial artist owned an essence fire, their combat power would shoot straight up. Of course, the prerequisite was that they could subdue the essence fire.

  Many martial artists wanted to obtain essence fires but were finally burnt until not even cinders were left.

  However, there was another application of essence fire, and that was to aid alchemists in refining pills!

  Tier 1 and 2 medicinal pills did not have a high requirement towards the flame. Ordinary earth fire could satisfy the requirement.

  But using earth fire for Tier 3 and above medicinal pills would be very forced. As for Tier 4 medicinal pills, earth fire would be completely insufficient.

  Hence, what an alchemist dreamed for the most was to be able to own essence fire!

  Even for Alchemy Apprentices and Alchemy Masters, if they could own a Tier 1 or 2 essence fire, the success rate and quality of their pill refinement would increase tremendously.

  It was just that compared to the number of alchemists, there were too few, too few essence fires. So scarce to the degree it made people despair. Hence, the vast majority of alchemists did not have essence fires.

  Ye Yuan's previous life was an Alchemy Emperor. Tier 9 essence fire was the standard. It was just that after the death of his flesh body, the
essence fire was unable to be brought over for rebirth.

  If it turned out as expected, that essence fire was obviously taken away by Ji Canglan.

  The essence fire in Ye Yuan's previous life was named Cangli True Fire. It was prepared for Ye Yuan personally by Ji Zhengyang.

  In reality, Ji Qingyun could be considered to have grown up in a honey jar. Since the beginning when he came into contact with alchemy, from Tier 1 to Tier 9, Ji Zhengyang would help him prepare the essence fire nicely.

  What he had to do was to refine those essence fires!

  Ji Qingyun did that very well.

  . . . . . .

  After the heatwave passed, the Black Crow Old Man and the Golden Sword Condor exchanged glances and swept towards the depths of the Lotus Moon Gorge at virtually the same time.

  Other people and demonic beasts only dared to flood inside by following the footsteps of others after those two major powers left.

  Of course, there were some people who saw this sort of situation and sensibly retreated.

  However, they normally did not even dare to come to Lotus Moon Gorge this sort of place. With such a fine chance this time, why would they let that pass by?

  Apart from that treasure which was born, there were a lot of good stuff in the Lotus Moon Gorge!

  However, Ye Yuan saw that it might be an essence fire which came into being. How would he have the thought to bother with those things? His figure moved, and he swept over to the depths of the gorge.

  "Hey, you guys saw that? Just now, a First Level Spirit Condensation Realm brat rushed inside."

  "Forget it, don't bother about him. He's in a rush to reincarnate, what has it got to do with us? We'd better hurry and source for some precious herbs. There are quite a few Tier 3 herbs here!"

  "Ah ah ah! You're despicable! I saw that Dragon Serpentine Grass first!"

  The deeper Ye Yuan went inside, the more he sensed that there were several powerful auras ahead. They were definitely the few human Crystal Formation Realm martial artists and those Tier 3 demonic beasts.

  Ye Yuan was just pondering what should he do when White Light who had been following by his side all along suddenly moved away, following a small path, and darted in.

  Ye Yuan was about to stop him when he suddenly thought of something. A smile crept into the corner of his mouth, and he also hurried after it.

  Chapter 168 - Earth Flame Lizard

  Where White Light passed by were all deserted and precipitous places. Ye Yuan followed the whole way but hardly bumped into anybody.

  "Could this little thing really have the ability to search for treasure?" Ye Yuan became more and more certain about this view.

  If that was really the case, then the white tiger back then should have been led by White Light to search for the Blood Bodhi but did not expect to encounter the Seven Colored Flowing Cloud Python occupying that place.

  After the two parties fought a great battle, the white tiger lost.

  This way, everything could be explained.

  "Do Flowing Light White Tigers have such abilities? This little fellow is really extraordinarily talented!" Ye Yuan sighed in admiration.

  Ye Yuan had researched very thoroughly into demonic beasts and had never heard of the Flowing Light White Tigers having this treasure seeking skill. Looks like it was this little fellow's own attribute.

  He really picked up a treasure.

  Thinking back then when he found White Light to be a hindrance, Ye Yuan could not help sweating heavily.

  The further into the gorge they went, the hotter Ye Yuan felt. It looked like nine out of ten it was essence fire. It was just he did not know what rank it was.

  Following White Light, Ye Yuan's terrain grew increasingly higher, but that treasure was obviously at the bottom of the gorge.

  "This little fellow isn't blindly leading the way, right? Or is he just finding food to eat?" Ye Yuan could not help criticizing.

  Although it felt like they were getting progressively closer to that treasure, this route did not seem too right.

  Right at that instant, Ye Yuan suddenly heard intense fighting sounds from the bottom of the gorge.

  "Wicked beast! Are you trying to fight to the bitter end with me?!"

  His answer was several bird cries with extremely powerful penetrative force.

  They were precisely the Black Crow Old Man and that Tier 4 Golden Sword Condor!

  Ye Yuan withdrew his aura and poked his head out to see. Indeed, he saw a human and a bird in a fierce battle at the bottom of the gorge.

  A Sea Transformation Realm powerhouse and a Tier 4 demonic beast's battle, that aura indeed could not be mentioned in the same breath. Those hair-raising clashing sounds, even if one was thousands of meters away, they would also feel waves of palpitation.

  If it was close up, just the aftershocks of the battle would probably be enough for him to suffer, right?

  Ye Yuan looked at the place the pair were fighting, and his heart inevitably felt a chill. The place the Black Crow Old Man and the Golden Sword Condor was fighting was precisely the entrance of a cave.

  Very clearly, that cave was precisely the passage leading to the whereabouts of the essence flame.

  With these two major powers guarding the cave entrance, who could enter? And them fighting so intensely was clearly also to snatch the initiative of entering the cave.

  Truly dangerous!

  Could it be that this time, he would really have to enter the treasure mountain but return empty-handed?

  "No way! If it was some other treasure, then forget it. But to the current me, essence fire is very important! I must get this essence fire!"

  Right then, White Light suddenly bit the corner of Ye Yuan's sleeve wanting to pull him away.

  "You're saying to make me follow you still? But the entrance is over that side! You heading this way, isn't that reversed?" Ye Yuan also criticized another bout in his heart.

  The direction White Light pulled him towards was the back of the mountain. It was simply far apart from that cave!

  White Light ignored Ye Yuan, left him behind and ran down the mountain.

  Ye Yuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "En? Could it be that there's another entrance?"

  Once this thought popped up, Ye Yuan quickly displayed his movement technique and tagged along.

  Before long, a small cave that could allow a person to pass through really appeared in front of Ye Yuan! White Light wagged his tail in front of the cave with a cute face as if he was claiming credit.

  Ye Yuan was elated when he saw that. Rubbing White Light's tiger head, he said in a lowered voice, "Well done, Little Fellow! There will be rewards for you after we return!"

  White Light seemed to understand Ye Yuan's words as he jumped twice on the spot, appearing to be ecstatic.

  Ye Yuan arrived at the cave entrance. An extremely gargantuan heatwave came from face-on and nearly pushed him directly down the mountain.

  Ye Yuan was not alarmed when he saw this, but became thrilled instead! This signified that this tiny cave entrance should really connect to the bottom of the gorge!

  "White Light, you also go inside the spatial artifact. The temperature here is exceedingly high, so you probably can't withstand it," Ye Yuan said and then directly put away White Light inside the spatial artifact.

  Then, a strand of faint essence energy poured out and completely enveloped Ye Yuan's body. He entered this small cave without any hesitation.

  This cave was extremely narrow. But Ye Yuan could sense that it really linked to the direction of the gorge floor.

  And the further in he went, the more scorching the air in the cave became. Ye Yuan had no choice but to strengthen the essence energy shroud to withstand this heat.

  Without knowing how much time passed, the front suddenly brightened up. But the scenery in front of his eyes exceeded Ye Yuan's expectations.

  As far as the eye could see, the surroundings were actually all lava! This cave actually linked directly
to the gorge floor!

  Just what kind of essence fire actually came into being here?

  "Forget about it. I'll g inside to retrieve the essence fire first before anything else. Any later, after those two fellows determine a victor and loser, it would probably not be so easy to want to subdue the essence fire anymore!"

  Thinking up to here, Ye Yuan no longer hesitated. He swept directly towards the depths of the cave.

  Just having walked several dozen steps, Ye Yuan suddenly felt his scalp tingle and instinctively sensed that things were not good.

  Whoosh!

  A green colored shadow abruptly appeared in front of Ye Yuan and directly confront him head-on!

  Ye Yuan wielded the Canghua Sword without any hesitation. A sword beam flashed past. That green figure seemed to know its power and actually jumped aside in midair!

  "Sss . . . Earth Flame Lizard!" Ye Yuan instantly recognized this green silhouette.

  The Earth Flame Lizard is just a Tier 2 demonic beast, but it was just like the Long-arm Stone Apes; both were social demonic beasts. One Earth Flame Lizard appeared in this place, so there was definitely a large group following behind.

  Indeed, at the back of the underground rocks, dense green figures suddenly appeared, making Ye Yuan's scalp tingle when he saw it.

  This number simply stretched to infinity!

  Immediately after, the Earth Flame Lizard automatically opened up a path. An enormous Earth Flame Lizard appeared in Ye Yuan's sights!

  Tier 3 demonic beast, Earth Flame Lizard King!

  The Earth Flame Lizard King's colossal eyes stared at Ye Yuan and its mouth emitted the sound "Chi chi." It was unmistakably giving a warning to Ye Yuan!

  Ye Yuan tried using the universal beast language to communicate with the Earth Flame Lizard King, but to his dismay, it had not awakened its inherited memories from the start.

  Ye Yuan's furrowed his brows. He did not have time to waste here, so he directly made his move.

  Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

  In a blink, countless Long-arm Stone Apes appeared and formed a face-off with the Earth Flame Lizards.
