Chapter 1306: A Key

ter a moment, he looked up at the sky and said calmly: "You may go. I won't kill you today, but I hope we never meet again!"Hai Yi Xue blinked her eyes and said, "Because of my name, you changed your...While Ginger Yun's accomplishments in the medicinal arts are partly due to inheriting the legacy of the Medicine God, the fundamental reason is her grandfather, Ginger Wanli, laying a solid foundation for her.

Since Ginger Cloud was sensible, he was told by his grandfather that he couldn't cultivate, so all his energy was put into learning alchemy.

But the first thing to do when refining medicine is to identify the medicinal herbs!

In the midst of Ten Thousand Rugged Mountains, there are countless types of medicinal herbs. Yet, Ginger Wanli can still produce medicinal herbs that are not found within the mountains.

At that time, Ginger Cloud didn't know, but now naturally understood, those herbs came from Grandpa's other world, so the herbs he identified were extremely complex.

Moreover, in the inheritance of the Divine Physician that Ginger Cloud later received, the Divine Physician also left behind a vast amount of records about medicinal herbs.

Therefore, it's not an exaggeration to say that the number of herbs Gingercloud knows and understands is absolutely no less than any alchemist.

Even when compared to Dan Daozi, it wouldn't be too inferior.

However, at this moment, Ginger Cloud didn't recognize a single one of the twenty-plus herbs laid out before him.

Needless to say, he was greatly astonished.

After staring intently at the herbs for a moment, Jiang Yun finally raised his head to look at Dan Daozi and said: “Senior Dan, can I have a look”

Tan Daozi nodded and said, "You may do as you please!"

Ginger Cloud reached out and picked up a crimson plant that resembled flames. After probing it with his divine sense, his expression changed drastically once more, and he abruptly looked towards Dan Daozi.

"A wry smile appeared on Dan Daozi's face. 'I can guarantee with my personality that I haven't tampered with any of these herbs!'"

Although he received a positive reply from Dan Daozi, Jiang Yun still couldn't quite believe it, muttering, "How is this possible!"

Because, in Ginger Cloud's hand, this red plant contained a full seventeen distinct medicinal properties.

What shocked Jiang Yun even more was that these medicinal properties were like living things. Not only could they actively dodge Jiang Yun's divine sense, but they could also fuse with each other rapidly, transforming into completely different medicinal properties.

Know that a certain herb can indeed possess multiple medicinal properties, but the most fundamental point is that these properties are fixed and unchanging!

This is the standard recognized by all alchemists!

However, the red plant in Gingercloud's hands now completely overturned this rule.

Jiang Yun's gaze turned to the other medicinal herbs. "Are all these medicinal herbs like this"

Dan Daozi nodded and said, "Yes!"

Jiang Yun, unwilling to give up, picked up another nine-petal flower. His divine sense plunged into it, and he couldn't help but gasp in surprise once more.

There are over thirty kinds of medicinal properties inside it!

Now, Jiang Yun finally understood why Dan Daozi had made those changes to the nine medicinal herbs he gave everyone before.

Obviously, the medicinal herbs that Dan Daozi wanted to refine pills from should be these in front of him.

And the properties of these herbs are incredibly complex, and they can also directly undergo even more complex changes. Therefore, it is difficult for any alchemist to fuse them together. That's why Dan Daozi needs help.

This person must first possess powerful spiritual strength so that they can perceive all the medicinal properties contained within each herb.

Moreover, one's skills in medicine cannot be lacking either.

Although Gingercloud didn't know what kind of pill Dan Daozi was trying to refine, judging from these medicinal herbs, it was certain that the grade of the pill would be extremely high.

Finally, the power of fire became secondary.

However, Dan Daozi apparently knew Jiang Yun's thoughts and said the same: "You can try burning these herbs!"

Ginger Cloud's heart skipped a beat, and she commanded the fire to appear directly before her. She wrapped the nine-petaled flower in flames. As she watched the fire blaze, Ginger Cloud's face turned ashen with dread.

Despite being scorched by such a powerful flame, this nine-petaled flower showed no sign of melting whatsoever.

Ginger Yun looked up at Dan Daozi and said, "Colorless fire"

"Not bad!" Dan Daozi nodded and said, "These medicinal herbs can only be burned with colorless fire."

"Now you understand, don't you The amount of medicine contained within them is too much. Even I, alone, cannot guarantee that they can be perfectly fused together."

As you know, the whole process could go awry with even a slight error, resulting in a complete failure.

Therefore, when merging the potions, I need someone to assist me, just as you did last time, separating the various properties so they can complete the fusion.

"Although your spiritual awareness is already powerful enough, since you have cultivated the art of Rebirth by Life Fire and I have sufficient colorless fire here, it should be enough to allow your life fire to undergo another rebirth."

After Nirvana, not only will your spiritual awareness become stronger, but your mastery over the colorless fire will also improve. Perhaps you could even help me burn these herbs.

As soon as his voice fell, Dan Daozi waved his hand again, and a pile of medicinal herbs appeared before Jiang Yun's eyes.

Looking at these sorted piles of herbs, even the smallest pile was about half a person's height tall, Jiang Yun couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Because this kind of herbal medicine has increased several times, I still don't recognize all of them!

These medicinal herbs total ninety-nine kinds, and each requires a vast quantity. Although I could burn them all myself, completing this first step would likely take at least half a year.

"Plus a more complex fusion elixir, even if everything goes smoothly, the final pill would take at least a year!"

Although this time is not actually very long, it's naturally better to finish it as soon as possible. So with your help, it should be able to shorten the time by one-third, or even more!

To this point, Jiang Yun finally understood the purpose of Dan Daozi.

Indeed, if all ninety-nine herbs were piled together, they could form a small hill.

Even with so many herbs, we can only use colorless fire to burn them.

If you were to do this yourself, don't say half a year; it might not even be possible to complete the first step in two or three years.

Although she understood, Ginger Cloud didn't immediately respond. Instead, she fell into deep thought.

To be honest, in his opinion, even with his help, the possibility of successfully refining the elixir was extremely slim. After all, the time frame was too long and the ingredients were too numerous.

Seeing Jiang Yun's silence, Dan Daozi naturally knew he was considering it. After a slight hesitation, he said: "I know that what I say might seem a bit dismissive to you."

But as long as you can lend a hand, then no matter what the outcome is, not only will I give you everything listed in the Book of Recruits, but if you have any other requests, anything within my power, I absolutely won't refuse!

This is an enticement from Dan Daozi!

There was no way; he was simply too anxious to refine the necessary pills. Now that he had finally found a condition that completely met his requirements, and even exceeded it with ginger cloud, he naturally had to do everything in his power to get ginger cloud's agreement.

Jiang Yun pondered for a moment before saying, "Since Elder Dan is being so honest, I'll be just as straightforward. Besides allowing my clan to relocate to your sect, I have no interest in the rest of the compensation you offered.

"Oh"

Dan Daozi couldn't help but be taken aback. He had spared no expense to refine this kind of elixir.

The reward offered, especially the several kinds of elixirs within it, would even cause cultivators at the Heavenly Human Five Tribulations realm to fight tooth and nail. Yet, Jiang Yun showed no interest whatsoever.

"Then, I wonder what Daoist friend needs"

Gingercloud raised her head and looked fixedly at Dan Daozi, saying: "What I need most is a key!"

"Keys"

Dan Daozi was stunned once again, but immediately his expression changed drastically. "How did you know about the key"

First published on the Traditional Chinese Novel Network depths of Yaodao's inner sanctum, Dan Daozi gazed at Mu Shaofeng's dantian within his medicinal pool, now completely healed. He muttered to himself, "Originally, I had no interest in attending the Wu...
