Chapter 139 The Deal with the Old Man of Medicine
"Alright, you can cultivate normally now. But you really need to change your arrogant temper that gets ignited at the slightest provocation. Don't act like a hot-blooded youth all the time. If I were like you, I would have been dead a hundred times over. You should always remember that a gentleman takes revenge even after ten years. It's foolish to act like a hero before you have enough strength. You can settle things with those who bullied you when you become stronger."

After putting the jade box containing the sealed medicine master into his storage bag, Qin Sheng said to Xiao Yan.

"Thank you very much, Brother Qin. Xiao Yan will remember this."

Now that he could cultivate again, Xiao Yan felt exceptionally relaxed. Even the air he breathed seemed sweeter than before.

"Alright, then you should focus on your cultivation here. Here's a bottle of Qi-Nourishing Pills, which should help you recover your cultivation faster. However, I suggest you wait until you reach a cultivation bottleneck before taking them. After all, the cultivation of battle qi is more suited to warriors, while cultivators are more like mages, and there are fundamental differences between the two. Battle qi is for building a foundation, and it's related to your future achievements, so don't rush things."

"learn."

After giving Xiao Yan some instructions, Qin Sheng turned around and transformed into a golden streak of light, soaring into the sky and disappearing into the horizon in an instant.

Looking at the spot where Qin Sheng disappeared, Xiao Yan couldn't hide his envy.

A Nascent Soul expert! This is a Nascent Soul expert!

It is an existence capable of easily destroying a city.

I just don't know when I'll be able to reach that level.

On the other side, after leaving, Qin Sheng went deep into the Monster Mountain Range and captured a fifth-tier monster, forcibly extracting the beast fire from its body.

Then they went to the Jia Lie family outside the Xiao family in Wutan City and captured several Dou Shi and Da Dou Shi who cultivated fire attribute Dou Qi for experimentation.

After using the otherworldly god to control these people, he made them switch to the Burning Technique one by one and devour the beast fire.

The first to try were those few Battle Masters, but they died before they could even subdue the beast fire. Let alone use the Burning Technique to devour it.

That only fire-attribute Grand Master successfully subdued the Beast Fire.

However, when it devoured the beast fire, it could not withstand the explosive force of the beast fire and burned itself to death.

Left with no other choice, Qin Sheng turned to the Obama family to arrest people.

Having learned from the previous tests, Qin Sheng was much more cautious this time.

They immediately used their magic to protect their meridians and then subdued the beast fire.

After three trials, it was finally successful on a Grand Master of the Obama family.

He successfully upgraded the Burning Technique from the low-level Yellow Rank to the mid-level Yellow Rank.

However, because the Burning Technique was of a much lower grade than the original cultivation method he practiced, his cultivation level decreased instead of increased after absorbing the beast fire. Even though he successfully absorbed the beast fire, he still dropped from a Great Dou Master to a Dou Master.

"It seems that there is nothing wrong with this Burning Technique, but the process of devouring beast fire is too demanding. If you are not careful, you will play with fire and get burned."

Qin Sheng murmured to himself, then gently raised his right hand. Golden light emanated from his palm, enveloping the Oba family's Grand Dou Master who had just mastered the Burning Technique.

With a scream of agony, his body turned to ashes in an instant.

Then, Qin Sheng released Yao Lao.

"See? I didn't lie to you, did I?" the old medicine master said irritably.

"Indeed, you didn't lie to me. In that case, I, Qin, will naturally fulfill my promise to revive you." Qin Sheng stroked his chin and said without hesitation. "Speak, what are your conditions? You don't seem like the type to be helpful, and I don't believe you would help me for nothing."

The old doctor seemed to still be holding a grudge against Qin Sheng for his offense.

Qin Sheng smiled and said, "Of course, that comes with conditions. Now, besides your Bone Spirit Cold Flame and my Golden Light Divine Flame, I know of another kind of strange fire, as well as a cold flame that is no weaker than a strange fire. I think it should be able to replace one of the strange fires and perform the resurrection method for you."

The old doctor said with some surprise, "I see that the cultivation method you are practicing is quite extraordinary. Are you willing to give up your life's cultivation and switch to the Burning Technique? Don't blame me for not reminding you that the Burning Technique is only a Yellow-rank cultivation method when you first start practicing it. If you rashly switch to it, your cultivation will definitely drop greatly."

“I have already verified this. However, my cultivation system is different from that of your Dou Qi Continent. I cultivate my magical power by absorbing spiritual energy, not Dou Qi, and thus I can cultivate multiple techniques,” Qin Sheng said.

"Spiritual energy." Upon hearing this, Yao Lao couldn't help but ponder Qin Sheng's origins. He had previously felt that this person's aura was indeed rather strange.

Later, from Qin Sheng and Xiao Yan's conversation, they heard unfamiliar terms such as "ascension", "soul search", and "resurrection technique".

It seems this person is not from their Dou Qi Continent.

But what does this have to do with him, a destitute man who has lost his body?

The old doctor asked in a deep voice, "Then what do you need me to do?"

"I observe that the alchemy techniques of this world are fundamentally different from those of our world. Before resurrecting you, I would like to learn the alchemy techniques of your world. As for the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, consider it my reward for resurrecting you," Qin Sheng said.

"It seems you know who I am," Yao Laoxu said, narrowing his eyes.

"And your answer?" Qin Sheng remained noncommittal.

"Do I have any other choice?"

The old apothecary rolled his eyes. He was certain that if he refused, he would face the loss of the Bone Spirit Cold Flame and the search of his soul. He would then become one of the wronged spirits and evil ghosts within that blood banner.

"In that case, please take some time to guide my little brother's cultivation during this period. Consider it compensation for absorbing his battle qi for three years."

Qin Sheng said calmly.

“Teaching him is no problem, but I was really worn out by you before. My soul is now extremely weak, and I'm afraid I'll fall into a deep sleep again soon.”

Medicine Taoist.

Qin Sheng said, “That’s easy to solve. Aren’t you the Medicine Venerable? I just inquired and heard that you are the number one alchemist on this continent. You must know how to refine pills that restore soul power. With my divine sense and cultivation, I should be able to refine them in no time. At the very least, it shouldn’t be difficult for me to find you a medicinal herb that restores soul power.”

"As for your resurrection, it should be possible to revive you within ten years. After all, while the strange fire is relatively easy to find, the Soul Fusion Blood Pill, the body of a Dou Zun, and the essence blood of a seventh-tier demon beast are not so easy to obtain. Of course, you can make do if you wish. Alternatively, you can choose the Resurrection Technique, which only requires me to capture a Core Formation cultivator and perform it on you."

Hearing Qin Sheng's words of utter disregard for human life, Yao Lao's lips twitched violently before he said irritably, "I am not as heartless as you."

"It's because you don't know the wickedness of people's hearts that you've ended up in this situation. If I were as naive as you, I would have died a thousand or eight hundred times over." Qin Sheng waved his hand dismissively.

The old apothecary, trapped inside the ring, fell silent, recalling the past. He instinctively wanted to speak in rebuttal, but didn't know what to say.

In the end, all that could be left was a helpless sigh.
