From breaking the limits of archery to achieving martial arts godhood

Chapter 95 Golden Bone Pill, Completed

The vine Chen Xun chose was about the thickness of a baby's arm, just enough to support Chen Xun's weight.

He looks thin, but his actual weight is over 300 pounds.

Because his bones and flesh are different from those of ordinary people, and are denser.

He had barely descended ten meters when he was entangled by a venomous snake with a bright green body.

The emerald green venomous snake lunged at Chen Xun's neck.

Then I heard a soft clicking sound.

The venomous snake's fangs were directly broken by Chen Xun's powerful skin defense.

Chen Xun grabbed its head, squeezed it gently, crushed it, and threw it off the cliff.

The price continued to fall.

Now it was Chen Xun's turn to use his eyes.

With the help of his eagle-eye ability, Chen Xun can see more details that ordinary people cannot notice, allowing him to avoid some dangers and find some good things.

For example, when Chen Xun descended about 20 meters, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He quickly drew the long sword from his waist and swiftly swung it at the vines beside him.

In an instant, Chen Xun unleashed three strikes.

With one stroke, he severed the venomous snake clinging to the vine; with another, he cut the vine itself; and with the final stroke, he struck the rock face.

Then vines and poisonous snakes fell off the cliff, and three blue grasses, their roots and rocks, were about to fall as well.

But it was quickly scooped up by a hand.

"That's right, I wasn't mistaken, it's Blue Sword Grass, and it's over thirty years old."

Chen Xun nodded in satisfaction, then cleared away the rocks from the grass roots and put them into a wooden box he had brought.

【Blue Sword Grass】is entirely blue, shaped like a sword, and has a potent medicinal effect. It is an important auxiliary ingredient in the refining of Blood-Activating Pills.

These three Blue Sword Grass plants would be worth at least one hundred taels of silver on the market.

With his gains, Chen Xun couldn't help but smile.

Then, Chen Xun continued to descend.

The further down you go, the more cracks appear in the rock face.

These gaps vary in size; some are so small they can only fit a few fingers, while others are big enough for a person to fit through.

Because there are more gaps, various snakes, insects, and rodents have also increased.

Poisonous insects and snakes kept crawling up Chen Xun's body.

But they were all stunned by Chen Xun.

He controlled his muscles to tremble and vibrate, transmitting the vibrations to his clothes, creating a peculiar vibration frequency that caused these little creatures to lose their footing and fall off the cliff.

Besides these annoying little things, Chen Xun also discovered several rather precious medicinal herbs.

They are all shade-loving plants.

One of the poisonous plants was Chen Xun's greatest gain.

This poisonous herb is called "Blood-Melting Herb". It is purplish-red all over and will gradually dissolve into the blood when soaked in it.

Afterward, the blood will become as clear as water.

However, if someone drinks this water, they will immediately bleed from all seven orifices and die, and their body will quickly dissolve after death.

An ordinary person would die from drinking just one drop, and even a martial artist at the Blood Exchange Realm would likely perish if they drank too much.

Only martial artists at the Core Formation Realm, who begin to strengthen their internal organs and greatly enhance their body's resistance to poison, can escape unscathed.

If this Blood-Melting Grass were sold on the black market, it could fetch several hundred taels of silver.

On the surface, major pharmacies are prohibited from selling any kind of poison, let alone highly poisonous herbs like the Blood-Melting Grass.

"Keep it; you might need it later."

Chen Xun doesn't plan to sell it, since he's not short of money for the time being.

Finally, when Chen Xun descended to a depth of sixty meters, his sharp eyes spotted the target medicinal herb.

"Found it."

Chen Xun's gaze pierced through the curtain woven from layers of vines, and he saw the [Smiling Golden Ginseng] hidden behind them, growing in the crevices of the rocks.

Chen Xun was excited and immediately drew his sword and began to slash.

The next moment, all the vines around him were cleared away, and then Chen Xun swung gently, swinging several meters away.

As he swung, Chen Xun's knife didn't stop either, sweeping across the path, causing countless vines to fall down.

Suddenly, with a "crack," the vine in his hand seemed unable to withstand the movement and finally snapped with a "snap."

Before it broke, Chen Xun's left hand had already formed a claw with its five fingers and plunged fiercely into the rock wall to support him.

Then Chen Xun quickly swung his long sword in his right hand, and he carved a hole in the cliff face that could accommodate both of his feet.

With his feet on the ground, Chen Xun had more leverage.

And so, Chen Xun approached the location where the [Smiling Golden Ginseng] grew, step by step.

That place was more than ten meters away from Chen Xun.

If placed on flat ground, Chen Xun could easily cross those ten-odd meters in one step.

Here, you can only move little by little.

Finally, after several minutes, Chen Xun arrived.

This is a rock crevice about half a person's height, and at its widest point, it is only about two fists wide.

It was pitch black inside; even if an ordinary person were right in front of them, they wouldn't be able to see what was inside.

Only Chen Xun possessed the [Eagle Eye] ability, which allowed him to clearly see that three [Smiling Golden Ginseng] plants were growing inside, and none of them were small.

But Chen Xun didn't rush to pick them.

Because in this crevice, besides the three "Smiling Golden Ginseng" plants, there was also a toad the size of a palm.

Although he couldn't make out the color, Chen Xun sensed a hint of danger emanating from the other party.

Clearly, this is no ordinary toad.

Seemingly noticing Chen Xun's gaze, the toad opened its eyes and met Chen Xun's gaze.

The next moment, a long tongue shot towards Chen Xun's face like a bullet.

Chen Xun's pupils contracted.

The attack, which was originally extremely fast, was slowed down by more than several times in that instant.

Chen Xun tilted his head and dodged the toad's attack.

While he was still dodging, he seized the opportunity to slash out with his sword.

This strike was as swift and precise as lightning, hitting the long tongue accurately.

With the combined power of extreme speed and immense force, the sharp blade easily severed the long tongue.

That wasn't all. Immediately afterward, Chen Xun thrust his curved blade forward, slicing past the Smiling Golden Ginseng and accurately striking the toad hiding behind it.

The toad was instantly split in two.

The blood flowed onto the rock wall, immediately making a "hissing" sound.

Clearly, the toad's blood is highly poisonous and is corroding the rock wall.

Upon seeing this, Chen Xun thought to himself that something was wrong and quickly swung his knife several more times, cutting off the several [Smiling Golden Ginseng] in his line of sight from the root.

Then, with a swift movement, he grabbed all of the Smiling Golden Ginseng in his hand.

Fortunately, Chen Xun intervened in time; otherwise, these [Smiling Golden Ginseng] would have been contaminated by the poisonous blood, turning them from precious medicine into poison.

However, Chen Xun's actions also caused a pale golden sap to flow from the root of the [Smiling Golden Ginseng].

This indicates that the [Smiling Golden Ginseng] has been damaged and needs to be taken or refined into a pill as soon as possible.

Otherwise, the medicinal properties will continue to be lost, greatly reducing its value.

"It seems we need to get back as soon as possible."

Chen Xun thought to himself.

He examined the three "Smiling Golden Ginseng" in his hand.

The oldest and largest one is about fifty years old.

The youngest one has been in use for over thirty years.

They all meet the requirements for refining the Golden Bone Pill.

So Chen Xun didn't delay any longer. He carefully preserved the Smiling Golden Ginseng, then put away the Willow Leaf Knife. His hands turned black with silver, and he began to climb upwards.

Under his claws, the hard rock wall was as easy as tofu, and was easily pierced.

And so, Chen Xun transformed into a gecko and quickly climbed up, returning to the top of the cliff in less than a minute.

After cleaning off the small creatures clinging to his body, Chen Xun headed towards Changfeng County.

It wasn't until sunset that Chen Xun finally returned to Changfeng County.

Back home, Chen Xun took a quick shower, changed his clothes, and went out again.

After visiting several large pharmacies, Chen Xun quickly gathered all the necessary ingredients for refining the Golden Bone Pill.

Compared to the rare "Smiling Golden Ginseng," these side ingredients are much more common; as long as you have money, you can get enough of them.

After gathering all the necessary ingredients, Chen Xun took them home and began refining the Golden Bone Pill.

Chen Xun first used the youngest of the [Smiling Golden Ginseng] plants to practice on.

Furthermore, he did not use it all, but only one-third of the amount.

The refining process of the Golden Bone Pill is extremely complicated. Even with Chen Xun's advanced medicine-making skills, he inevitably failed the first time he tried to refine it.

Immediately afterward, Chen Xun reviewed the reasons for the failure and began his second attempt without delay.

The second attempt also ended in failure.

But Chen Xun revealed a determined smile on his face.

"I know where the problem lies; the third time will definitely succeed."

Sure enough, when Chen Xun began the third refining process and used up the remaining [Smiling Golden Ginseng], he finally succeeded in refining the Golden Bone Pill.

Two and a half pills were formed.

Chen Xun did not rest, but continued to refine pills with renewed vigor.

The medicinal effects of the remaining two *Smiling Golden Ginseng* plants have been waning.

Chen Xun felt sorry for him and didn't dare to rest at all.

And so, working until the fourth watch of the night, Chen Xun finally refined all three [Smiling Golden Ginseng] into Golden Bone Pills.

A total of eighteen pills were formed.

By this point, Chen Xun was exhausted.

He tidied up his alchemy tools quickly, returned to his room, and went straight to sleep.

He slept until the sun was high in the sky.

This was the first time Chen Xun had gotten up this late since he transmigrated.

After getting up, Chen Xun ate something casually and then couldn't wait to take the Golden Bone Pill, wanting to try its effects.

As soon as Chen Xun swallowed the Golden Bone Pill, his eyes widened in shock.

Energy, surging energy, swept over my entire body.

Chen Xun felt as if he were inside a volcano, with waves of heat rolling in.

"That's powerful."

With a sigh of praise, Chen Xun entered a state of cultivation.
