Mortals: Practice the Three Thousand Great Ways to Gain Eternal Life

Chapter 45 A Thank-You Gift from Nangong Wan
On this day, Nie Ying never expected that Lin Shou, her senior brother who devoted himself to practicing in seclusion, would come to her on his own initiative.

Although he had something to ask for, she was quite happy. It would be best if the two chattering and annoying junior brothers of the Murong brothers could leave.

"I have something important to discuss with your Senior Sister Nie Ying. You can take these two bottles of Yellow Dragon Pills and go practice! Try to break through the tenth level of Qi Refining Stage as soon as possible."

Lin Shou also didn't want the Murong brothers to cause trouble, so he took out the remaining Huanglong Pills from his practice and handed them to the brothers.

Having gotten the benefits, the two Murong brothers naturally left happily and no longer disturbed Lin Shou and Nie Ying's world of two.

As soon as the Murong brothers left, Nie Ying couldn't help but feel nervous, especially after seeing Lin Shou's smile that made people feel like spring breeze, she couldn't help but feel her cheeks getting hot and a charming blush appeared on her face.

"Junior Sister Nie Ying, I heard that you are going to the Blood Forbidden Land to pick the heavenly and earthly medicinal herbs. Don't you have the Foundation Building Pill? Why do you still want to go? One Foundation Building Pill should be enough for you to successfully build your foundation, right?"

Lin Shou was the first to ask the question.

"Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother. I went to the Blood Forbidden Land not just to pick the spiritual herbs of heaven and earth and exchange them with the sect for foundation-building pills. I have another purpose. As for what the purpose is, I hope Senior Brother will forgive me for not being able to say more."

Nie Ying lowered her head and explained softly.

"I see. I won't ask any more questions. But since you are going to the Blood Forbidden Land, can you help me pick some more Heavenly and Earthly Medicines? Don't worry, only seedlings or seeds are needed. Mature Heavenly and Earthly Medicines are not needed, as that would be too dangerous. I want to try and see if I can cultivate them. After all, this time the Blood Forbidden Land is different from the past, so we still need to make more preparations."

Lin Shou nodded and stated his purpose.

"Picking the seedlings and seeds of the heavenly and earthly magical medicine, this..."

After hearing the purpose of Lin Shou's visit, Nie Ying was quite disappointed. At the same time, a look of embarrassment appeared on her face.

"I know this is a bit difficult. As a reward, I will temporarily lend you a talisman and two top-level magic tools for protection, as well as more than ten primary and high-level talismans, which are enough for you to have enough self-protection power in the bloody forbidden land. After the matter is completed, according to the number of heaven and earth spiritual medicine seeds and seedlings you get, this talisman and two top-level magic tools will be given to you. What do you think?"

"Of course, if Junior Sister doesn't want to, I won't force her. After all, if Junior Sister does get into trouble, I won't be able to explain to Master. I will also ask other people to help, so Junior Sister doesn't have to worry about anything."

Lin Shou spoke softly with a smile on his face, which made it easy for people to like him.

"Can you give me a few days to think about this?"

Although Nie Ying had a good impression of his senior brother Lin Shou, he was also aware of the dangers of the Bloody Forbidden Land. Even seedlings and seeds were dangerous.

"Of course, Junior Sister, please consider it. This is not just for Junior Sister, I will also go and ask for help from others."

Lin Shou nodded and smiled.

"Thank you for your understanding, Senior Brother."

Hearing this, Nie Ying breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

"Junior sister, you are too polite. I should be the one to thank you. Well, I came here for this matter. Now that we have finished talking about it, I will take my leave first. After all, I still need to ask other junior nephews for help."

Lin Shou had no intention of staying any longer and just stood up and said goodbye.

Then, Nie Ying naturally did not try to persuade him to stay and stood up to see him off.

……

Wu Feng, a person who is ranked in the top ten in terms of both strength and character in the Yellow Maple Valley, is mainly responsible for teaching other Yellow Maple Valley disciples magic. He has reached the thirteenth level of Qi Refining and is one of Lin Shou's best candidates.

"Uncle Lin, you want your disciples to go to the bloody forbidden land and help you pick the seeds and seedlings of the heavenly and earthly spiritual medicine."

In the training hall of Huangfeng Valley, Wu Feng's face changed slightly after hearing Lin Shou's request, and he repeated it.

"That's right. I know the dangers of the Bloody Forbidden Land. I am willing to lend you two top-level magic tools and dozens of talismans as protective gear. After the matter is done, you can choose any one of these two top-level magic tools. If you pick enough seeds and seedlings of elixir from heaven and earth, it will not be a problem to give you both of these top-level magic tools. What's more, I have other generous gifts for you and will not let you suffer any loss." Lin Shou nodded and promised.

"Uncle Lin, you are joking. I am already very grateful to you for lending me two top-level magic tools and talismans. Moreover, I really want to get another foundation-building pill. Although this blood-colored forbidden land is dangerous, I am still confident with your top-level magic tools and talismans. However, I cannot guarantee how many heavenly and earthly spiritual medicine seeds and seedlings I can pick. I hope you can forgive me."

After listening to Lin Shou's words, Wu Feng nodded and said in a deep voice.

"Of course. No matter how many spiritual medicine seeds and seedlings we can pick, one of the top-level magic tools will be given to my nephew as a thank you gift."

Lin Shou breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, Wu Feng's side was much easier. There was nothing he could do about it. Honest people were easy to bully.

However, if he could pick enough elixirs from heaven and earth to exchange for a foundation-building pill, Wu Feng would almost be able to successfully build his foundation, which would be a good thing.

Lin Shou also admired Wu Feng's character, and naturally had more trust in him.

"Uncle Lin, you are too polite. Although this is a little dangerous for me, it is also a good thing. However, it would be better for you to find a few more disciples for this matter. Also, there is one more thing I would like you to know. It won't be too late to make a decision then."

Wu Feng shook his head and reminded seriously.

"What is it? Just tell me directly, nephew?"

Seeing this, Lin Shou raised his eyebrows and became curious.

"Most of the seedlings and seeds of this heavenly and earthly miraculous medicine cannot be cultivated in the outside world. Only a very small number can survive. Therefore, Master, you'd better think it over carefully, so as not to end up losing more than you gain. I'm worried that Master has been practicing in seclusion and doesn't know about this."

Wu Feng spoke up to remind him.

"Of course I know this, but I believe I am somewhat confident in cultivating medicinal herbs and spiritual medicines. Junior Brother, don't worry."

Lin Shou chuckled.

"Then I won't say much."

Seeing this, Wu Feng naturally wouldn't say anything more.

Afterwards, Lin Shou discussed with Wu Feng his experience in practicing magic. Wu Feng naturally told him everything he knew without any intention of keeping anything to himself.

After half a day, Lin Shou, who was still reluctant to leave, finally left. After returning to the cave, he received a thank-you gift from Nangong Wan.

"I'm sorry to bother you with my affairs. Here are five top-level magic tools and a talisman, as well as some talismans and spirit stones. Consider them as a thank you gift."

These were Nangong Wan's original words, and they also saved Lin Shou a lot of money.
