Chapter 568 -246: Leisurely

Five days later, Qin Fang returned to the Sect.

He first made a trip back to Linyuan Peak, found some Jade Bottles and Jade Jars, then took out some honey and Bee Meat and packed them away.

After some thought, he also took out the Blood Evil Cloud Fruit, Snake Gall, and tiger penis, sealing them tightly in Jade Jars…

…He had plenty of Jade Bottles and Jade Jars on hand, which were, of course, left over from storing True Essence Pills and various Leaf Technique Auxiliary Medicines.

It had been inconvenient to carry them before, so this time he simply tossed them all into the Void Realm…

‘Having a Personal Space like this really is much more convenient.’

Then, he went to see his master.

But when he arrived, he found that his master was not in his place of quiet cultivation.

Qin Fang blinked. He wasn’t too bothered and headed to Guiyuan Valley first.

Wen Suxin was in the main hall, instructing disciples on their cultivation. Her eyes lit up when she saw Qin Fang, and she gave him a warm smile.

Qin Fang’s spirits lifted at the sight of his senior sister, and he greeted her with a smile.

Xile bounded over from out of nowhere.

It wagged its head and tail joyfully.

One look at that expression, and Qin Fang immediately scolded it, forbidding Xile from licking him.

Xile froze, then sat down and began to whimper aggrievedly, its ears drooping.

Only then did Qin Fang walk over and stroke its enormous head.

“Alright, I’ll give you a treat in a little while…”

The Blood Evil Cloud Fruit was, of course, intended for Xile.

Xile looked at Qin Fang, tilting its head in confusion.

Qin Fang stroked its head for a little longer before telling it to go play on its own.

Only then did he walk over to his senior sister’s side and make some small talk.

Then he gave his senior sister some honey and Bee Meat… prompting the surrounding Inner Sect Disciples to immediately erupt in playful jeers.

Resigned, Qin Fang had no choice but to give her some more, telling his senior sister to share it with the other junior disciples.

Only then did he enter the main hall.

Sure enough, Master Fan was in the middle of handling official business. He put down his scroll and smiled upon seeing Qin Fang.

After paying his respects, Qin Fang also presented some Bee Meat and honey. Fan Zhengchu’s expression was warm as he smiled and nodded.

After they had chatted for a bit, Qin Fang suddenly said, “Master, I encountered two Exotic Species on my trip this time, and I also obtained a Treasure Plant.”

“Oh?”

The Master looked somewhat surprised to hear that Qin Fang had encountered two Exotic Species… After all, Exotic Species were actually quite rare within the territory of Great Yu.

In an entire prefecture, one might only see a few over the course of a year.

“Let me see.”

Since Qin Fang had brought it up, he was clearly asking for an appraisal, so Fan Zhengchu said with a smile.

Qin Fang nodded and took out the Jade Box containing the Blood Evil Cloud Fruit, tiger penis, and Snake Gall.

The Master’s eyes widened in surprise. “Blood Evil Cloud Fruit? …Where did you get this?”

…Clearly, the Master also knew the conditions required for a Blood Evil Cloud Fruit to grow.

Qin Fang then briefly recounted what had happened that day.

He concluded, “I’m also very puzzled about this Blood Evil Cloud Fruit. I looked around the area, but I couldn’t find any so-called ‘land of blood evil’…”

The Master’s brow furrowed. After a moment of thought, he said, “This is a strange business. We can’t afford to be careless… Where did you find it?”

Qin Fang, of course, knew the answer.

Knowing that the Three Religions were planning a major operation, he couldn’t afford to be careless about such matters. So, after leaving the mountain range, Qin Fang had made a special trip to the nearest human county seat… He had already pinpointed the specific location.

“In the deep mountains fifty li east of Pujia County, within Liange County.”

Qin Fang gave the specific name and location.

…He had even spent half a day in Pujia County to confirm that nothing like the ‘Qi Blood Pill’ had appeared there before he left.

The Master nodded, committing it to memory. “Understood. I will notify the Sect and have them send someone to investigate thoroughly.”

Qin Fang nodded slightly and asked, “Then what about these three Cloud Fruits…”

The Master picked one up and examined it carefully. “Hmm, the aura is very pure, and it seems fine… You brought these back for Xile to use, didn’t you?”

Qin Fang nodded.

“Take them to the Hundred Herbs Courtyard. Spend some contribution points to have your Master Wen refine them for you. They can be made into Blood Amber Essence Pills. With three Cloud Fruits, you can get twenty-seven pills if you’re lucky. Give those to Xile… While the Blood Evil Cloud Fruit itself is potent, the Blood Evil Qi within it is a bit too wild. Consuming it directly would be a considerable waste.”

The Master smiled. “Twenty-seven Blood Amber Essence Pills can greatly increase Xile’s Cultivation… possibly to the High Grade of the Extraordinary Realm… While it might not be enough for it to start Condensing Demon Gang, it will definitely be a huge improvement.”

Exotic Species can naturally condense something similar to True Gang.

Though they follow a different path from human Martial Artists, the destination is the same.

Qin Fang’s eyes brightened at his words, and he nodded.

“As for these other two…”

The Master looked at the Snake Gall and tiger penis, then continued, “This Snake Gall is of a decent age. The Demon Essence it contains is yin-cold in nature, effective for calming the mind, clearing one’s vision, and neutralizing trace amounts of fire poison. The tiger penis, on the other hand, is warm and arid. It primarily replenishes Qi Blood and Vitality and is somewhat beneficial to disciples who practice aggressive Leaf Skills.”

He placed the items back in the Jade Box and said with a smile, “These two aren’t particularly rare, and they’re not difficult to refine. The Snake Gall can be combined with some Clear Heart Grass and Ice Dew Flower to make Clear Heart Bright Eyes Pills, which are useful for calming a restless mind and relieving dizziness during cultivation. The tiger penis is best refined with things like old mountain ginseng and astragalus root to create Blood and Qi Strengthening Pills. They’re suitable for recuperating after your True Essence has been depleted and can help speed up your physical recovery…”

“They’re all foundational Elixirs.”

“They’ll be of limited help to you at your current Realm, but they’re still quite practical for ordinary True Essence Realm disciples. If you want them, just take these to the Hundred Herbs Courtyard as well. Pay some contribution points, and have Master Wen refine them for you while he’s at it. You’ll likely get twenty to thirty pills of each, which you can keep for yourself or share with fellow disciples you know well.”
