Chapter 268: Chapter 268 Heavenly and Earthly Treasures_1

In these two books, in addition to most common herbs and spirit beasts, there were also many mystical items that Ling Xiao had never seen or even heard of.

For example, Master Baiyun once said that a person’s potential is not fixed and can be enhanced through external items, such as certain spiritual medicines, but these medicines are extremely difficult to obtain.

One such herb mentioned in the books is called "Treasure Fruit," which, despite its unremarkable name, can slowly enhance a martial artist’s potential all the way up to a Godly Treasure Body!

There are other rare herbs, objects, and spirit beasts as well.

Take, for instance, a spiritual medicine called "Phoenix Grass," which, after ingestion by a martial artist, can actually grant a chance for rebirth in fire.

Then there’s the blood of certain ancient ferocious beasts, which when ingested or absorbed, can cause a certain special change in the body’s blood, granting terrifying abilities of ancient ferocious beasts.

This reminded Ling Xiao of the Golden Dragon Bloodline in his own body, which he had always guessed to be the blood of some ancient divine dragon, but had never been able to confirm.

But today, he finally received confirmation from the Spirit Beast Guide, and the worries in his heart were alleviated.

Moreover, it also detailed which herbs could assist in awakening the Golden Dragon Bloodline, which was of even greater help to Ling Xiao.

Besides herbs and spirit beasts, there were also certain objects, such as preserved blood of ancient warriors, and items containing the broken souls of ancient warriors.

By using these items in alchemy, and consuming the resulting pills, it was possible to obtain the martial souls or divine abilities of the ancient warriors.

Such as "Moon Blossom Pagoda," "Blood Transformation Divine Saber," "Golden Buddha," "Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror," and the like for martial souls.

And there were divine abilities such as "Three-headed Six-armed," "Call the Wind and Summon the Rain," and "Heavenly and Earthly Change."

Ling Xiao had never imagined that a martial artist could become so powerful, possessing the strength to contend with heaven and earth – it was indeed awe-inspiring.

These two books had truly opened up a new world for him, cementing his determination to study earnestly with Elder Master Yang.

Previously, he had merely harbored the intentions of getting by, thinking that the work here was relatively easy and that he wouldn’t be oppressed.

But now, his mindset had completely changed.

Alchemy and martial arts practice should progress side by side, without prioritizing one over the other.

After all, with his exceptional talent and strong comprehension, coupled with the "Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique," he could handle many things separately.

Speaking of the "Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique," it was now somewhat unable to keep up with his cultivation level.

After all, the "Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique" was just a quasi-golden-grade martial arts auxiliary, at most helping him reach the Ninth Layer Pinnacle of Martial Veins. Once he entered the Transcendent Realm, he would need a better supplementary secret method.

"Sister Lan, I truly thank you for today. Without you letting me read these two books, I wouldn’t have known how wondrous the Mysterious World is and that there are so many exciting things to look forward to."

Ling Xiao was sincerely grateful.

Although he knew Lan Yu’er intended to make things difficult for him, he did indeed benefit from it, and not just a little.

Therefore, there was no need for him to bear a grudge.

"Have you finished reading the content in there?"

Lan Yu’er was somewhat astonished. She hadn’t even considered that Ling Xiao would remember the content of the two books; just finishing reading them seemed improbable at that speed.

"I’ve finished."

Ling Xiao nodded affirmatively.

A hint of disdain flashed through Lan Yu’er’s eyes.

She detested dishonest people.

However, she didn’t say anything, after all, Ling Xiao wasn’t a disciple she valued. If he liked to lie and boast, then let him be.

Ling Xiao saw the disdain in Lan Yu’er’s eyes, but he didn’t explain himself – after all, he had no improper thoughts about Lan Yu’er, and he wasn’t her disciple. Lan Yu’er’s opinion of him, he simply didn’t care about.

In the time that followed, Ling Xiao didn’t stay in the Medicine Hall Library, instead, he went to Medicine Mountain and Beast Mountain.

From noon that day until the next evening, he almost always stayed on Medicine Mountain and Beast Mountain.

He spent the first half of the time on Medicine Mountain, and the second half on Beast Mountain.

After all, the knowledge in books is nothing but texts and images; nowhere near as fascinating as reality.

He compared the materials from his memory with the actual medicinal herbs, and in doing so, his understanding became much clearer.

It must be said that the accuracy of these two books was very high, but still, there were some oversights.

Of course, this might not be due to oversights, perhaps it was just that the alchemist’s abilities were limited and they failed to notice them.

However, Ling Xiao’s special ability "Analysis and Practice," obtained from the Mountain and River Martial Soul, could fully identify these oversights and find ways to address them.

He believed that if he were to refine pills, the pills he produced would undoubtedly be more perfect than those refined by others of the same level.

With an understanding of medicinal herbs and spiritual beasts, learning "Fire Control Technique" became very straightforward.

As for "Pharmacology Fundamentals," "Basic Pill Refining Technique," and "Basic Medicine Refining Technique," they were even less worth mentioning.

Of course, there were some things he still needed to ask Lan Yu’er about.

He didn’t care whether Lan Yu’er showed him a friendly face or not; what mattered was the learning he acquired.

Lan Yu’er initially responded perfunctorily.

But later, she took the initiative to discuss topics with Ling Xiao.

Because to her amazement, she discovered that in some areas, Ling Xiao’s understanding of medicinal herbs and spiritual beasts was even more thorough and comprehensive than hers.

This discovery made her proud heart completely relent.

People who knew Lan Yu’er understood that although the girl was indeed prideful, she was quite obsessive when it came to learning.

In this aspect, she somewhat resembled Ling Xiao.

That night, Ling Xiao didn’t sleep at all; he was eager to consolidate everything he had learned.

Learning it didn’t mean it would always stick; he needed to thoroughly comprehend and reinforce the knowledge, otherwise a half-baked understanding could prove fatal.

Early the next morning, he stood up, rubbing his legs; today was the day he would openly spar with Yang Cheng and Li Anle.

Because of his excessive diligence the night before, he had almost forgotten about it.

Normally, one should rest well before a challenge, but now he had been busy the entire night.

Since Elder Master Yang was not around, Ling Xiao went to ask Sister Lan for leave. This senior sister was strict and impartial, so without asking for leave before departing, who knew what kind of trouble he might return to.

"You are not allowed to go!"

Lan Yu’er decisively refused Ling Xiao’s request.

"Why not?"

Ling Xiao asked, puzzled.

"First, you haven’t completed the tasks assigned by Elder Master Yang. Second, as your senior sister, I really don’t think it’s a good idea for you to challenge those two,"

Lan Yu’er’s answer was just as succinct.

Ling Xiao laughed and said, "Firstly, the requirements set by Elder Master Yang have been met by me; secondly, I never regarded those two guys as threats. The challenge is simply to acquire more resources, and beside, it serves to deter others from constantly troubling me."

Ling Xiao’s response was resolute and without a trace of hesitation.
