Martial Arts Immortal Saint: Starting from Feeding Horses and Escorting Goods

Lu Chuan asked with some doubt, "Young lady, is Alchemist Zhang Heling here?"

"Master has been too busy lately."

The woman at the table looked up at Lu Chuan.

"Other alchemists also have their own things to do. If you want to see a doctor, then sit down and I will take care of you."

She had delicate features and a friendly, approachable demeanor, her bright eyes fixed on Lu Chuan.

"I see," Lu Chuan said, suddenly realizing.

He thought for a moment, then walked over to the chair in front of the desk and sat down.

"May I ask your surname, young lady?"

My name is Yu Xiaoshui.

"Miss Yu."

Lu Chuan raised his hand, rolled up the sleeve of his right arm, and draped it over the table.

Yu Xiaoshui's eyebrows furrowed instantly.

"Your injuries..."

"I was injured by the evil spirits, and there is resentment left in my meridians, which has blocked the flow of my internal energy and prevented me from recovering," Lu Chuan said truthfully.

"You were injured by the evil spirit, yet you didn't die?" Yu Xiaoshui asked in surprise.

Lu Chuan's lips twitched slightly as he said, "There were strong people among our companions; we were lucky to escape unscathed."

Yu Xiaoshui nodded, then raised her hand and placed her fingers on Lu Chuan's arm to briefly check his pulse and sense the lingering resentment.

After about fifteen minutes, she withdrew her hand.

"It can be removed. Wait a moment, I'll go get you the medicine."

"Thank you." Lu Chuan took a deep breath. As expected, he still needed professional help.

After waiting for a while, Lu Chuan withdrew his hand and looked around the room idly.

He saw a stack of what appeared to be discarded prescriptions and other materials in a bamboo basket not far away.

One of them had two characters written on the top: "Forging Bones".

"Bone forging?"

Lu Chuan was curious, so he got up, went forward, picked it up, and took a look.

He has now mastered the art of skin refining and will soon reach perfection. It is time for him to learn more about bone forging.

"Bone-Forging Elixir Formula"

Before Lu Chuan had even finished reading, a line of text appeared in his mind.

[Bone Tempering Pill Recipe, Mid-grade Mortal Realm, Efficacy: Assists martial artists in breaking through the Bone Tempering Realm and tempers their bones]

[Several herbs are missing]

"This is a good thing," Lu Chuan thought to himself.

This is something he will need soon.

Because it is very difficult for martial artists to break through to a higher realm, it would be much easier if they had elixirs to help them.

"Can it be completed?" Lu Chuan pondered for a moment.

He currently only has 1 martial arts skill point and hasn't decided which technique to deduce yet. For now, he carefully studies the pill formula, memorizes it, and then puts it back in its original place.

A while later, Yu Xiaoshui finally came out of the inner room.

She placed the three prescriptions on the table and posted the instructions on how to decoct them.

"The resentment is extremely difficult to deal with. It needs to be removed with the Cleansing Powder. After taking it, you will also need to use your internal energy to help remove it."

"Okay, I've got it. Thank you." Lu Chuan put the Cleansing Powder into his bag and put it away.

He then tentatively asked, "Do you sell Bone Forging Pills here?"

Yu Xiaoshui replied, "Yes, but they are very rare and expensive."

"The recipe for this Bone Forging Pill is not of high grade, but for some reason, it is almost impossible to find in Canglan Prefecture. It is probably only found in the Heavenly Sword Sect, and the recipe is not easily passed on."

"My master is a great alchemist, but even the Hundred Herbs Hall only has incomplete formulas, so he can't refine them. He has to buy them from outside, and only occasionally does he have a few pills."

As she spoke, she glanced at the bamboo basket and said, "There are at least four or five incomplete formulas for Bone Forging Pills in there. Master copied them down before, intending to distribute them to see if he could find an opportunity to complete them."

"But it's a pity that I haven't received any after so long, so I was going to throw them all away, keeping only one copy of the formula."

Lu Chuan pondered for a moment and said, "My father was also a doctor who sought out remedies back then. Perhaps his records contain the formula for the Bone Forging Pill."

"I'll go back and look for it, see if I can find it."

Yu Xiaoshui's eyes lit up immediately: "If it can be completed, its value will be considerable. If it can be completed, I can give you a Bone Forging Pill for free."

"Even if you have any problems in the future, you can come to Baicaotang to find me."

Lu Chuan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back and take a look, and we'll talk about it another day."

After leaving Baicaotang, Lu Chuan did not linger and returned to Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

Without delay, he directly prepared the first dose of Jingmai Powder according to the decoction method on the prescription.

The bowl of medicinal soup was yellowish-green and had a slightly spicy aroma.

Lu Chuan drank it all in one gulp.

A bitter and spicy taste filled my mouth, and after the medicine entered my abdomen, my dantian felt slightly warm, and a special medicinal power spread out.

"Give it a try!"

Lu Chuan sat cross-legged on the bed, circulating his Everlasting Spring Technique, using his internal energy to propel the medicinal power he had just drunk along his meridians to his arm.

"Squeak..."

In just a few breaths, the resentment that had remained in the meridians and flesh of the arm was peeled off bit by bit, like a smog particle board.

However, it was not directly eliminated, but instead remained suspended in the meridians, like fine sand in water.

Lu Chuan was secretly pleased. This Cleansing Powder could indeed remove resentment. At this rate, he wouldn't even need three doses.

He immediately activated his Everlasting Spring Skill, his internal energy gradually surging upwards, wanting to force all these resentments out of his body and completely eliminate them.

But at that moment, a line of small print appeared in his mind.

[Enlightenment Perfection: Triggers comprehension, evolving the characteristics of the Everlasting Spring Technique: Refinement.]

[Refining: Internal energy can be gradually decomposed, stripping away absorbed energy from outside the body and transforming it into pure internal energy for absorption, which then nourishes the body.]

【Host】

Name: Lu Chuan

Realm: Body Tempering: Skin Refinement (Mastery)

[Technique]

Changchun Gong (High-grade Mortal Rank: 60% Entry Level) Iron Wire Fist (Mid-grade Mortal Rank: 30% Entry Level) Wind-Stepping Technique (Low-grade Spirit Rank: 5% Entry Level)

Enlightenment progress: 0%

[Martial Arts Value: 1]

Talent Trait: Refining

"Um?"

Lu Chuan was taken aback, slightly surprised.

"Has your enlightenment progress reached its limit?"

He has been continuously practicing the Changchun Gong for the past few days, trying to dispel his resentment, and has not paid attention to the control panel.

It seems that the high-intensity and continuous practice of the Everlasting Spring Technique is what allowed him to progress in enlightenment so quickly.

"Refining properties, refining energy bodies other than oneself?"

His heart began to beat faster.

Doesn't this mean he can refine the energy within this resentment for his own use?

He immediately decided to try it, using Changchun Gong as a foundation, and began to refine these resentful energies by enveloping them.

In his perception, these resentments were indeed like a special energy, being stripped away and assimilated little by little.

In less than a quarter of an hour, it became pure internal energy that resonated with his body. Then, through the circulation of the Changchun Gong, it nourished his physical body and was finally poured into his dantian.

In an instant, his aura suddenly surged, and the internal energy stored within his body became much more abundant than before.

"this……"

A glint of light flashed in Lu Chuan's eyes.

"I never expected to turn misfortune into a blessing, with this unexpected joy!"

The strange and monstrous are products born from absorbing the essence of heaven and earth and combining it with one's own resentment and thoughts.

Once the resentment is removed and the energy is refined, only the purest energy remains. This energy can actually help Lu Chuan greatly improve his cultivation level!

Without any hesitation, he took this opportunity to prepare the second dose of medicine, and then administered it directly into his abdomen that evening.

This time, under the influence of Changchun Gong and Jingmai San, all the resentment remaining in the meridians was stripped away and suspended in the meridians.

"Refine!"

Without hesitation, Lu Chuan directly refined all the resentment.

This time, Lu Chuan was more composed and did not rush. He spent about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to refine and absorb all of it and pour it into his dantian.

"Buzz!"

It seemed as if a soft sound came from within his body, and at that moment, his entire being underwent a qualitative change.

Skin refining complete!
