On the path to immortality, I can see destiny.

The old man spoke calmly, but to Zhang Tie'er it was like a thunderclap.

"A Nascent Soul cultivator from a thousand years ago!"

"So, this is the inheritance of a Nascent Soul cultivator!"

Zhang Tie was extremely excited. Although he still had some doubts, the inheritance of a Nascent Soul cultivator was right in front of him. Who wouldn't be tempted?

After much hesitation, Zhang Tie couldn't resist and stepped inside.

The moment he entered, he clearly felt a strange sensation, as if something was spying on him.

He immediately stepped back and observed carefully, but found nothing.

Then, when Zhang Tie stepped inside again, the eerie feeling of being watched disappeared.

He breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to pick up the box.

Inside the box was a beautifully designed storage bag. Even without opening it, just one glance was enough to tell that this storage bag was no ordinary item.

After putting away the storage bag, Zhang Tie carefully checked the room again to make sure there was nothing else before turning to leave.

As Zhang Tie left, the stone door slammed shut, plunging the room back into darkness.

"Old man, this is your last chance."

A strange female voice echoed in the empty room, carrying a hint of mockery and hatred.

……

In the morning, under the bright sunshine, the roars of wild beasts echoed from a mountain cave.

A short while later, Zhao Fan, dressed in new clothes, came out from among them, dragging a dead wolf in his hand.

Looking at the sun in the sky, Zhao Fan let out a long breath, finally feeling truly alive again.

The treasure of a Nascent Soul cultivator is indeed very useful. He didn't know what that strange airflow was, but as long as he wore the ring, he could feel a cool aura emanating from it.

If you look closely, you can see the subtle flow of air.

The flow of this airflow was also quite magical. Inside the cave, he followed the airflow and actually found the teleportation array that led him out.

As for the inheritance of the Nascent Soul cultivator mentioned earlier, he did not obtain it either.

This ring should be a kind of spatial artifact, but it has a restriction on it.

He had no knowledge of restrictions, but after a quick glance, he felt that the restrictions were extremely complex and probably could not be opened in a short time.

Zhao Fan had never been to this place before and didn't know how far it was from his cave.

He looked at the sun in the sky, confirmed the approximate location, then threw the wolf carcass into his storage bag and started walking eastward.

This small teleportation array shouldn't be able to teleport too far. If you're starting from Fallen Spirit Mountain, you'd have to head east. So even without a precise location, heading east is always the right thing to do.

Heading east, the road was very quiet, and there was nothing unusual.

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name 1110 ...

However, Zhao Fan was very vigilant throughout the journey. He had been ambushed by that cultivator surnamed Lu, and if it weren't for the tortoise shell, he would have died on the spot.

Now that the tortoise shell had been left in the cave, Zhao Fan became even more cautious, for this time nothing could save his life.

After walking for about ten miles, the air that had been flowing smoothly in Zhao Fan's eyes suddenly became turbulent.

He saw a stream of air swirling among waist-high weeds.

This piqued Zhao Fan's interest, and he walked over following the direction of the airflow.

Where the air currents converged, Zhao Fan parted the weeds and discovered a small green blade of grass growing underneath.

At the top of the grass, two branches sprouted, each bearing a small white flower with five petals.

This herb is also one of the spiritual herbs needed to make the Pure Spirit Pill, the Bright Spirit Flower.

The Mingling Flower blooms once every five years. Only after it blooms can it be used as medicine. For each additional flower that blooms, the medicinal effect increases by 30%.

Zhao Fan was pleasantly surprised and reached out to pluck the Mingling Flower.

As Zhao Fan moved, the airflow that was originally swirling around the Mingling Flower quickly dispersed, and a wisp of airflow belonging to Zhao Fan began to swirl around it.

Zhao Fan didn't understand what this meant, but he hadn't expected that this special ability could help him find medicine.

It seems that the magical ability he gained through the ring is more useful than he imagined.

He casually opened his storage bag, took out an empty medicine box, carefully stored the Bright Spirit Flower, and put it back in his storage bag.

Only then did he realize that he hadn't yet checked what was in the storage bag of the cultivator surnamed Lu.

This storage bag is still hanging on my waist.

Upon discovering this, Zhao Fan immediately threw the Lu surname cultivator's storage bag into his own.

This act of hanging two storage bags for no reason feels like saying to others, "Look, I'm so rich that I can't even fit all my good stuff in one storage bag."

After getting ready, Zhao Fan continued on his way.

Along the way, Zhao Fan discovered those mysterious airflow vortexes several times.

In every area surrounded by air current vortexes, something can always be found.

Some were medicinal herbs, some were materials, and he even found a spirit stone that someone had left behind.

In just one afternoon, the things he picked up were worth about ten spirit stones, based on the prices in the market at the time.

The feeling of walking along the road and picking up money as you go is just so awesome.

If I could collect like this for a day, I feel like I could earn twenty or thirty spirit stones.

As Zhao Fan was happily daydreaming, a flying boat flew directly towards him from the sky.

Two people stood on the flying boat; they were the Su uncle and nephew.

"Third Uncle, are you saying that he's actually just a humanoid spiritual herb cultivated by the Thousand Cliffs Taoist?"

The young man could hardly believe his ears when he heard what his third uncle had just said.

"Yes, I've heard that Daoist Qianyan has a magical secret technique that can refine a person with cultivation into a powerful medicinal herb. After swallowing it, the person can break through the bottleneck of a minor realm."

The young man was somewhat skeptical.

"That doesn't make sense. If such a secret technique truly existed, how could a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining possibly defend against it?"

The middle-aged cultivator nodded slightly, very satisfied with the young man's question. The fact that he could think of this proved that his nephew was quite intelligent.

"Of course it's not that simple. There are two requirements for alchemy. First, to break through the bottleneck of the current realm, the target needs to have the cultivation level of the current realm. In other words, to break through the sixth level of Qi Refining, the cultivator used for alchemy must have at least the cultivation level of the fourth level of Qi Refining."

"Secondly, the person being refined needs to actively cooperate for the process to succeed."

"In other words, for Daoist Qianyan to break through using this method, firstly, he needs a cultivator at the fourth level of Qi Refining, and secondly, this cultivator must be someone he trusts very much."

"Therefore, the best and most successful method is to find a child with spiritual roots and nurture them to the fourth level of Qi Refining."

At this point, the young people understood.

"So, he's the humanoid elixir that Daoist Qianyan cultivated to help him break through his cultivation bottleneck?"
