The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

475: Chapter 471 Foundation Establishment (Fourth Update!) 475: Chapter 471 Foundation Establishment (Fourth Update!) The secluded valley behind the waterfall, compared to the mountain valleys outside, was even more hidden and narrow, with steeper terrain.

Surrounding it were towering peaks piercing the clouds, making the discovery of treasures here no easy task.

Only within a valley the size of a classroom did various spiritual medicines grow, emanating bursts of fragrant aroma.

Unfortunately, most of them were used for crafting Qi Refining Pills.

Stuff like Silky Spirit Grass, Heavenly Qilin Fruit, Fragrant Orchid, Dead Wood Ginseng, and such could all be used to refine Qi Refining Pills, and they were most effective for cultivators in the late stages of the Qi Refinement Realm.

But among them, three types of spiritual grass excited even Wu Dongbin.

“Mixed Element Fruit, Azure Dragon Ginseng, Dragon Cloud Grass…

These are all spiritual medicines for refining Xuan Spirit Pills!”

Wu Dongbin’s gaze fell on the spot in the middle of these medicines, his face showing excitement as he whispered in a low voice, “Xuan Spirit Pills are of no use to me, but for those in the early stages of Foundation Establishment, they’re top-grade elixirs!

They even have a certain chance of helping cultivators break through from the initial stage to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment!

Even for cultivators in the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, consuming a Xuan Spirit Pill could significantly advance their cultivation, reaching the mid-stage peak…”

Muu Xirou and the others lit up at the mention.

Their gazes turned scorching hot as they looked at the three spiritual herbs.

“Cough cough…”

But Wu Dongbin coughed, then turned to Lin Tian and asked, “Senior Lin, how did you find this place?”

This place was too well-hidden!

If Lin Tian hadn’t brought them here, even after defeating the Nine Bone Corpse Soul, they might not have discovered this treasure trove.

As Wu Dongbin asked, the expressions on the faces of Muu Xirou and the others darkened as they withdrew their gazes.

This place was discovered by Lin Tian, which meant all the spiritual medicines here belonged to him, and they could only watch greedily.

To steal?

Such a thought flashed by, and they exchanged glances, suppressing the idea.

Having seen Lin Tian’s terrifying strength, deep down, they truly felt a mix of respect and fear.

“I have my own methods to sense this place!”

Lin Tian took a tour around the valley, then smiled and pointed to a spot in the middle, “These spiritual medicines here, I’ll leave them to you, deal with them as you please!”

Having said that, Lin Tian turned to look towards the darkest patch of weeds at the very back of the valley.

This treasure spot was something he had inadvertently discovered when he released his Divine Sense to scan the surroundings.

The spiritual energy was dense here, and despite the horrific Corpse Qi from the Nine Bone Corpse Soul, it hadn’t withered, which had something to do with the patch of dark weeds at the back.

The cluster of dark weeds looked inconspicuous.

Even upon inspection, there was not the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy, which would make it hard for the average person to spot anything unusual.

Wu Dongbin and the others were initially shocked, then puzzled as they watched Lin Tian staring vacantly at a clump of weeds.

Muu Xirou took a few steps forward and asked again, “Senior Lin, are you saying you are giving us all these spiritual medicines?”

“Of course!

Just don’t disturb me now!”

Lin Tian nodded earnestly in response.

After saying this, he turned his gaze back to the patch of weeds and stood there silently.

Upon hearing this, Muu Xirou and the others showed looks of surprise and joy.

“Brother Wu, you are now a Second-level Alchemist, which is barely a Dark-level Alchemist.

Let’s start refining the Xuan Spirit Pills now!”

Muu Xirou’s face was full of surprise as she said, “Among them, the Mixed Element Fruit will spoil in no more than two hours without a Jade Box to preserve it.

We have no way of taking it with us now, so we can only refine the pills on the spot!”

“Luckily, I always carry an Alchemy Furnace with me!”

Wu Jianian nodded, took out a pale cyan Alchemy Furnace from his backpack, and sat down on the spot.

Wu Dongbin and the others sat down nearby.

“Based on their current changes, it will take another three hours!”

Lin Tian watched the weeds for a while, then looked up at the sky before turning back to Wu Dongbin and his group.

“Is this Alchemy?”

Watching Wu Jianian setting up the Alchemy Furnace and preparing to start the fire for elixir crafting, Lin Tian couldn’t help asking with interest.

“Hehe, Senior Lin, Wu Jianian is a rare Alchemy genius in our Southern Continent Branch Hall!

At such a young age, he is already a Dark-level Alchemist!

Even I am far from his match, I can only refine the most basic Basic Elixirs…”

Wu Dongbin praised Wu Jianian, then shook his head and replied.

Upon hearing this, Wu Jianian’s face showed a hint of pride.

“Elder Wu, no need to call me a senior, I really am just a Qi Refinement Realm cultivator!”

Lin Tian said to Wu Dongbin with a light chuckle.

“You are really just in the Qi Refinement Realm?

How are you so powerful?

Hmph, you couldn’t be deceiving us, could you!”

For Lin Tian, Guan Huixin didn’t have the kind of awe that people like Elder Witch and Muu Xirou did—she was the youngest, staring at Lin Tian with her beautiful eyes and asking.

“What would be the point of lying to you?

My cultivation technique is just a bit special and powerful, that’s all!”

Lin Tian replied with a slight smile.

Lin Tian had already gained some understanding of the character of the few cultivators.

They were rather proud, but with good natures.

The fact that they risked their lives to capture David for the sake of ordinary people spoke volumes.

Therefore, Lin Tian decided not to hide his true cultivation level from them.

“Wow, so you’re not like one of those old monsters who’s hundreds of years old?

Good to hear—you’re almost our age!

Hmph, but don’t use your great strength as an excuse to bully others!”

Guan Huixin showed a look of surprise but soon pursed her lips and glared.

Meanwhile, Muu Xirou and the others remained silent, smiling.

As they found Lin Tian approachable, their reverence for him gradually diminished.

Wu Jianian was immersed in alchemy at this time.

The task of concocting the Xuan Spirit Pill was still quite difficult for him.

As the process neared the late stage, beads of sweat began pouring down his forehead.

Bang~~

Just ten minutes later, a crisp sound came from the alchemy furnace.

The furnace exploded!

The Xuan Spirit Pill concoction failed!

“Elder Witch, Junior Sister Muu, this is my first time trying to concoct a Xuan Spirit Pill.

I’ve concocted other Xuan-rank elixirs, but this one is really not easy…”

Wu Jianian showed a look of disappointment and sighed wearily.

Muu Xirou and the others also looked slightly disheartened.

“Don’t panic, Brother Wu, we still have five or six spiritual herbs left—at least six more chances!

You can definitely do it!”

Guan Huixin said, encouragingly.

Just one successful concoction would give them a chance to raise their cultivation by a level.

However, the following three attempts at concoction all ended in failure for Wu Jianian.

“You’re doing it wrong!”

Lin Tian, who had been watching, couldn’t stand it any longer.

He shook his head, walked over, and pointed to the Mixed Element Fruit next to the pill furnace, “This thing has a mix of spiritual energies that, when combined with two other spiritual medicines, easily causes the furnace to explode.

That’s why you need to add Night Grass first!

Uh, I mean the kind that only blooms at night…

look, there’s one over there…

This spiritual medicine usually grows alongside the Mixed Element Fruit.

It’s just that most alchemists overlook its use…”

Hearing Lin Tian’s explanation, Elder Witch, Wu Jianian, and the others were all stunned.

“You know about alchemy?”

Elder Witch asked with a surprised expression.

“I know a bit!”

Lin Tian said with a faint smile.

Elder Witch’s eyes lit up and he quickly instructed, “Jianian, try it the way Senior Lin said!”

Wu Jianian, skeptical, picked up the Night Grass and started the process again.

Bang~

Yet, within minutes, the alchemy furnace exploded once more.

Wu Jianian’s face suddenly looked a bit ugly.

He dared not reproach Lin Tian aloud but could only shake his head in silence.

“Hey, hey…

you weren’t just making it up, right?

Ah, another chance gone.

We only have enough spiritual herbs for two more tries!”

Guan Huixin’s face was filled with dismay as she spoke out hotly.

Elder Witch’s eyes widened in rebuke, but Lin Tian merely smiled and said, “Stand up.

I’ll concoct it for you this time.

Watch closely!”

After he sat down, Lin Tian summoned the Samadhi True Fire and expertly tossed the Night Grass and the other herbs into it.

Hum~~

In just five minutes, accompanied by a waft of medicine fragrance, Lin Tian forcefully opened the pill furnace, revealing five crystal-clear Xuan Spirit Pills in the palm of his hand.

“Is this…

really alchemy, not some kind of magic trick?”

Wu Jianian, Muu Xirou, and the others stared with their eyes wide in shock.

The way they looked at Lin Tian was filled with reverence and deep admiration.

Such alchemy techniques were surely something only top-grade alchemists from the legends could accomplish!

Lin Tian, however, ignored the others.

He stood up and turned back to the dark weeds.

There, amidst the withered leaves, emerged five small grasses shimmering in blue, gold, green, red, and yellow.

Seeing this, Lin Tian’s face broke into a smile: “It’s true that fortune is unpredictable—to encounter such a heaven-defying spiritual medicine here is divine assistance indeed!

Today, I shall establish my foundation!”
