“ xuán tiān wáng yuè shì bù fán ， tā de mò míng shī zōng jiù yuè xiǎn de lìng rén jīng sǒng 。”
“玄天王越是不凡，他的莫名失踪就越显的令人惊悚。”
"The more extraordinary the Heavenly King Xuan is, the more shocking his mysterious disappearance becomes."
“ zhè yī shì mò rú bīn xún zhǎo xuán tiān wáng de jì huà yīng gāi néng chéng gōng ……”
“这一世墨儒斌寻找玄天王的计划应该能成功……”
"Perhaps this life, Mo Rujun's search for the Heavenly King Xuan will succeed..."
“ xī wàng tā jǐn jǐn shì shēn shòu zhòng shāng 、 yǐn nì le qǐ lái 。 ér bú shì zhēn xiàng wǒ cāi cè de nà yàng ， yǔn luò 、 zhuǎn shēng le 。” lǐ fán sī xù yǒng dòng 。
“希望他仅仅是身受重伤、隐匿了起来。而不是真像我猜测的那样，陨落、转生了。”李凡思绪涌动。
"I hope he merely suffered severe injuries and hid himself away. Rather than truly perishing or reincarnating as I suspected," Li Fan thought.
jí qí le 【 xuán jī 、 wàn líng guī shù 】，【 huāng luò 、 xū shì shēng huā 】 liǎng zhǒng xiān jí zhèn fǎ ， tōng guò zhōng mò jiě lí dié de jiě xī ， lǐ fán yě yǐn yǐn cāi cè dào le zhè yī tào wán zhěng zhèn fǎ kě néng de yòng tú 。
集齐了【璇玑、万灵归数】，【荒落、虚室生花】两种仙级阵法，通过终末解离碟的解析，李凡也隐隐猜测到了这一套完整阵法可能的用途。
With the completion of [Xuanji, Ten Thousand Spirits Returning to Numeracy] and [Wasteland Desolation, Flowering in Vacuity], two Immortal-grade array formations, Li Fan had a vague idea of what this complete set might be used for after analyzing it through the Endgame Disintegration Disc.
“ chuàng shì jiè ……”
“创世界……”
"Creating worlds..."
“ wú lùn shì chóng xiàn jì yì zhōng céng jīng jīng lì guò de 、 hái shì quán xīn de shì jiè 。 háo wú yí wèn ， zhè tào xiān jí dà zhèn dōu néng zuò dào 。”
“无论是重现记忆中曾经经历过的、还是全新的世界。毫无疑问，这套仙级大阵都能做到。”
"Whether it's recreating memories or a brand new world, there’s no doubt that this Immortal-grade grand array can do so."
zhǐ kě xī rú cǐ jìng jiè lí lǐ fán tài yuǎn ， mù qián yě zhǐ néng zài jiě lí dié de tuī yǎn zhōng dé yǐ kuī jiàn yī èr le 。
只可惜如此境界离李凡太远，目前也只能在解离碟的推衍中得以窥见一二了。
Unfortunately, such a realm was too far from Li Fan. Currently, he could only glimpse its workings through the disc's analysis.
suí zhe zhèn fǎ de wán quán jiě xī ， lǐ fán yě bù yòng zài quán bù shēn xīn tóu rù 。 zhǐ xū yào fēn chū yī lǚ yì shí ， jiān dū jiě lí dié de yùn zhuàn jiù xíng 。
随着阵法的完全解析，李凡也不用再全部身心投入。只需要分出一缕意识，监督解离碟的运转就行。
With the complete dissection of the array, Li Fan didn't need to fully immerse himself anymore. He just needed to focus a portion of his consciousness on overseeing the disc’s operation.
lǐ fán suí hòu zhào jí le yào wáng zōng liǔ rú chén děng rén 。
李凡随后召集了药王宗柳如尘等人。
Li Fan then gathered several members of the Medicine King Sect, including Liu Ruchen.
“ zhè duàn shí jiān ， wǒ sī lái xiǎng qù ， hái shì jué de liǔ yī háng tā men yì zhí chén shuì tài guò kě xī 。 rú jīn zhèng shì yòng rén zhī jì ， zài jiā shàng nǐ men yào wáng zōng zuì jìn de biǎo xiàn ……”
“这段时间，我思来想去，还是觉得柳一航他们一直沉睡太过可惜。如今正是用人之际，再加上你们药王宗最近的表现……”
"Over this period, after much consideration, I feel that it's a pity for Mo Yihang and others to remain in deep slumber. It is currently an opportune time to use them, plus your recent performance at the Medicine King Sect..."
“ zōng hé kǎo lǜ zhī xià ， wǒ jué dìng ràng tā men gǎi xiū xīn fǎ 、 jǐn kuài huī fù tā men de zhàn lì 。”
“综合考虑之下，我决定让他们改修新法、尽快恢复他们的战力。”
"After considering all factors, I have decided to have them learn new techniques and quickly restore their combat capabilities."
yī biān shuō zhe ， lǐ fán yī biān jiāng liǔ rú chén jǐ rén dài lǐng dào líng mù jiè yī chù jiàn zhù nèi 。
一边说着，李凡一边将柳如尘几人带领到灵木界一处建筑内。
As he spoke, Li Fan led Liu Ruchen and the others into a building within the Spirit Wood Realm.
tà bù jìn qù ， jiù kàn dào yī yǎn kàn bú dào tóu de shū jià 。
踏步进去，就看到一眼看不到头的书架。
Stepping inside, they saw endless bookshelves stretching out before them.
shū jià shàng bǎi mǎn le yù jiǎn 。
书架上摆满了玉简。
The shelves were filled with jade slips.
lǐ fán suí shǒu shè guò sān shí méi ， jiāng qí jiāo gěi liǔ rú chén 。
李凡随手摄过三十枚，将其交给柳如尘。
Li Fan casually plucked thirty of them and handed them to Liu Ruchen.
“ jìng rán dōu shì huà shén jiē gōng fǎ ？” liǔ rú chén yī sǎo zhī xià ， wàn fēn jīng xǐ dào 。
“竟然都是化神阶功法？”柳如尘一扫之下，万分惊喜道。
"Are these all Core Formation techniques?" Liu Ruchen was overjoyed as he swept his gaze across the slips.
bié shuō zài rú jīn zhè ge fǎ bù kě tóng xiū de xiū xiān jiè 。 jiù suàn zài shàng gǔ xiū xiān jiè zuì wèi dǐng shèng zhī shí ， yī xià zi ná chū sān shí mén huà shén gōng fǎ yě jué duì suàn dé shàng shì cái dà qì cū le 。
别说在如今这个法不可同修的修仙界。就算在上古修仙界最为鼎盛之时，一下子拿出三十门化神功法也绝对算得上是财大气粗了。
It would be a remarkable feat even in the current world where simultaneous practice of different techniques is forbidden. Thirty Core Formation techniques at once would certainly be considered a vast fortune, even during the golden age of ancient cultivation realms.
yào wáng zōng zhòng rén lián shēng xiè guò shàng shǐ ， ér hòu yòu bù yuē ér tóng de qiāo qiāo cháo zhe lǐ fán shēn hòu de wú jìn shū hǎi wàng qù 。
药王宗众人连声谢过上使，而后又不约而同的悄悄朝着李凡身后的无尽书海望去。
The Medicine King Sect members thanked the envoy and then secretly turned their attention to the endless sea of books behind Li Fan.
zài chǎng zhòng rén zhǐ yǒu lǐ fán zhī dào ， zhè kàn shàng hào hàn wú biān de cáng gōng gé ， qí shí zhǐ yǒu yì bǎi mén gāng gāng cóng mò rú bīn nà lǐ hāo lái de gōng fǎ 、 yǐ jí wǔ shí duō mén lǐ fán zài guò wǎng lún huí zhōng sōu jí de wú zhǔ gōng fǎ 。
在场众人只有李凡知道，这看上浩瀚无边的藏功阁，其实只有一百门刚刚从墨儒斌那里薅来的功法、以及五十多门李凡在过往轮回中搜集的无主功法。
Only Li Fan knew that this seemingly boundless library contained only one hundred techniques recently obtained from Mo Rujun, with fifty more collected by him in past lifetimes. The rest were just illusions created using array formations.
zhì yú qí tā ， quán dōu zhǐ shì lǐ fán yòng zhèn fǎ chuàng zào de huàn jǐng bà le 。
至于其他，全都只是李凡用阵法创造的幻景罢了。
However, Li Fan's trick was quite convincing.
bù guò lǐ fán zhè yī shǒu dí què hěn néng hù nòng rén 。
不过李凡这一手的确很能糊弄人。
The varying auras emanating from the几位药王宗合道者 could tell how effective it was.
kàn yǎn qián zhè jǐ wèi yào wáng zōng hé dào ， shēn shàng bù tóng chéng dù de qì xī bō dòng jiù zhī dào xiào guǒ le 。
看眼前这几位药王宗合道，身上不同程度的气息波动就知道效果了。
Li Fan smiled and performed a show of power, summoning a row of bookshelves emitting faint golden light from the depths of the sea.
lǐ fán wēi wēi yī xiào ， zhuāng mú zuò yàng de shī fǎ ， cóng shū hǎi shēn chù diào chū yī pái sàn fà zhe dàn dàn jīn guāng de shū jià 。
李凡微微一笑，装模作样的施法，从书海深处调出一排散发着淡淡金光的书架。
All the jade slips on these shelves were enveloped in white-light orbs, clearly not ordinary items.
shàng miàn bǎi fàng zhe de yù jiǎn ， quán dōu bèi bāo guǒ zài bái yù bān de guāng tuán zhōng ， yī kàn jiù zhī bú shì fán pǐn 。
上面摆放着的玉简，全都被包裹在白玉般的光团中，一看就知不是凡品。
Li Fan carefully took one out and first closed the [Library of Techniques].
lǐ fán pǒ wèi zhèng zhòng de cóng shàng qǔ chū yī méi ， xiān jiāng 【 cáng gōng gé 】 guān bì 。
李凡颇为郑重的从上取出一枚，先将【藏功阁】关闭。
Then he handed it to Liu Ruchen.
ér hòu cái jiāng yù jiǎn zhuǎn jiāo gěi liǔ rú chén 。
而后才将玉简转交给柳如尘。
Seeing Li Fan's solemn actions, Liu Ruchen grew tense.
jiàn lǐ fán rú cǐ shà yǒu jiè shì ， liǔ rú chén yě bù miǎn yǒu xiē jǐn zhāng le qǐ lái 。
见李凡如此煞有介事，柳如尘也不免有些紧张了起来。
"What is this..."
“ zhè shì ……”
“这是……”
After a thorough examination, his face changed: "So many elixir formulas?"
tā jiē guò zhī hòu yī fān chá tàn ， ér hòu liǎn sè wēi biàn ：“ zhè me duō dān fāng ？”
他接过之后一番查探，而后脸色微变：“这么多丹方？”
"Most of them are ones I've never seen before?"
“ jū rán jué dà duō shù dōu shì wǒ cóng wèi jiàn guò de ？”
“居然绝大多数都是我从未见过的？”
This statement caused a stir among the several co-formation elders from the Medicine King Sect.
cǐ yán yī chū ， yě shì zài yào wáng zōng jǐ wèi hé dào zhǎng lǎo zhī jiān yǐn qǐ le sāo dòng 。
此言一出，也是在药王宗几位合道长老之间引起了骚动。
Their eyes fixed on the jade slip in Liu Ruchen's hand as if it were a divine treasure.
tā men de mù guāng quán dōu sǐ sǐ dīng zhe liǔ rú chén shǒu zhōng de yù jiǎn ， fǎng fú kàn zhe shén me tiān dì zhì bǎo yì bān 。
他们的目光全都死死盯着柳如尘手中的玉简，仿佛看着什么天地至宝一般。
In truth, these elixir formulas were indeed unimaginably precious to them. They contained all the main elixirs currently used by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance’s Alchemy Hall, along with detailed alchemical techniques and analyses of various situations during the process.
qí shí zhēn yào shuō qǐ lái de huà ， zhè yù jiǎn zhōng de dān fāng duì tā men ér yán ， hái zhēn de shì nán yǐ xiǎng xiàng de zhēn bǎo 。 yīn wèi zhè shì wàn xiān méng dān táng rú jīn zhǔ liú shǐ yòng de dān yào de quán bù dān fāng 。 shèn zhì hái bāo kuò le xiáng xì de liàn dān shǒu fǎ ， yǐ jí liàn dān guò chéng zhōng gè zhǒng kě néng de qíng kuàng fēn xī 。
其实真要说起来的话，这玉简中的丹方对他们而言，还真的是难以想象的珍宝。因为这是万仙盟丹堂如今主流使用的丹药的全部丹方。甚至还包括了详细的炼丹手法，以及炼丹过程中各种可能的情况分析。
These too had been obtained from Mo Rujun.
zì rán réng shì cóng mò rú bīn chù qǔ dé de 。
自然仍是从墨儒斌处取得的。
With fewer secret elixir formulas, obtaining these was a simple matter. But for the Medicine King Sect members, it was a massive fortune that would allow them to quickly catch up in alchemy skills.
shǎo le xiē jué mì dān fāng ， huò qǔ qǐ lái yě shì shùn shǒu zhī shì 。 dàn duì yú rú jīn de yào wáng zōng zhòng rén lái jiǎng ， què shì yī bǐ jù dà de cái fù 。
少了些绝密丹方，获取起来也是顺手之事。但对于如今的药王宗众人来讲，却是一笔巨大的财富。
"Thank you, Envoy," Liu Ruchen and others sincerely said.
zú yǐ ràng tā men zài duǎn shí jiān nèi ， zhuī shàng wàn xiān méng de liàn dān shuǐ zhǔn 。
足以让他们在短时间内，追上万仙盟的炼丹水准。
Li Fan's surprises didn't end there.
“ duō xiè shàng shǐ ēn cì 。” liǔ rú chén děng rén zhè cì shì zhēn xīn shí yì de shuō dào 。
“多谢上使恩赐。”柳如尘等人这次是真心实意的说道。
"Do not resist."
ér lǐ fán gěi tā men zhǔn bèi de jīng xǐ yuǎn bù zhǐ rú cǐ 。
而李凡给他们准备的惊喜远不止如此。
Hearing Li Fan’s voice, they felt a force descend upon them. Without hesitation, they allowed it.
“ bú yào fǎn kàng 。”
“不要反抗。”
In an instant, they appeared in a strange world.
tīng dào lǐ fán de shēng yīn ， gǎn yìng dào yī gǔ lì liàng jiàng lín zài zì jǐ shēn shàng 。 tā men méi yǒu yóu yù ， rèn qí shī wéi 。
听到李凡的声音，感应到一股力量降临在自己身上。他们没有犹豫，任其施为。
This world was even more expansive than the Spirit Wood Realm.
zhǎ yǎn jiān ， tā men jiù chū xiàn zài le yī chù mò shēng de shì jiè zhī zhōng 。
眨眼间，他们就出现在了一处陌生的世界之中。
More astonishingly, the land was covered with freely growing spirit plants and herbs. The dense aura was almost tangible.
cǐ chǔ shì jiè ， bǐ qǐ líng mù jiè hái yào guǎng kuò 。
此处世界，比起灵木界还要广阔。
Above, a piece of floating land hung in the air.
gèng kuā zhāng de shì ， shì jiè zhōng biàn dì dōu shì sì yì shēng zhǎng de líng zhí 、 cǎo yào 。 nóng yù de líng qì ， jī hū yào níng chéng shí zhì 。
更夸张的是，世界中遍地都是肆意生长的灵植、草药。浓郁的灵气，几乎要凝成实质。
After a glance around, everyone gasped: "How did our Medicine King Sect's restrictions appear here?"
ér zài kōng zhōng ， hái xuán fú zhe yī kuài lù dì 。
而在空中，还悬浮着一块陆地。
"Wait, this place seems familiar. Isn't it the Immortal Valley?"
zhòng rén sǎo shì guò hòu ， quán dōu shī shēng jīng hū ：“ zhè shàng miàn ， zěn me yǒu wǒ men yào wáng zōng jìn zhì de hén jì ？”
众人扫视过后，全都失声惊呼：“这上面，怎么有我们药王宗禁制的痕迹？”
Instantly, they recognized the origin of this land.
“ děng děng ， zhè ge dì fāng kàn shàng qù sì hū yǒu xiē yǎn shú 。 bú shì cháng shēng gǔ ma ？”
“等等，这个地方看上去似乎有些眼熟。不是长生谷嘛？”
They turned to look at Li Fan.
shùn jiān ， tā men rèn chū le zhè kuài lù dì de lái lì 。
瞬间，他们认出了这块陆地的来历。
Li Fan was equally surprised: "So, this secret realm belongs to your Medicine King Sect?"
fēn fēn zhuǎn tóu kàn xiàng lǐ fán 。
纷纷转头看向李凡。
He then explained: "When our Interdimensional Alliance was gathering backup forces, we stumbled upon... the Immortal Valley. We thought it was unowned and moved it into this cave."
lǐ fán yě shì yī liǎn de chà yì ：“ zěn me ， yuán lái zhè chù mì jìng shì nǐ men yào wáng zōng de ？”
李凡也是一脸的诧异：“怎么，原来这处秘境是你们药王宗的？”
Li Fan remained calm as he spoke.
suí hòu jiě shì qǐ lái ：“ wǒ men wàn jiè lián hé huì zài sōu jí hòu bèi lì liàng de shí hòu ， qià hǎo fā xiàn le zhè …… cháng shēng gǔ 。 hái yǐ wéi shì wú zhǔ zhī wù ， yú shì jiù shùn biàn bān dào le zhè dòng tiān nèi 。”
随后解释起来：“我们万界联合会在搜集后备力量的时候，恰好发现了这……长生谷。还以为是无主之物，于是就顺便搬到了这洞天内。”
The Medicine King Sect members had various reactions.
lǐ fán miàn bù gǎi sè dào 。
李凡面不改色道。
Liu Ruchen sighed: "It seems destiny has already determined this."
yào wáng zōng zhòng rén liǎn sè gè yì 。
药王宗众人脸色各异。
Li Fan smiled but didn't elaborate further: "Just like what you see, the Interdimensional Alliance is a coalition of forces from various realms. Naturally, it includes some relics from other worlds."
liǔ rú chén zé shì tàn xī dào ：“ yuán lái yuán fēn zǎo jiù zhù dìng 。”
柳如尘则是叹息道：“原来缘分早就注定。”
"You don’t need to worry about resources. Even if all of you work tirelessly on alchemy, your consumption rate might not match the regeneration speed."
lǐ fán xiào le xiào ， bù zài jiě shì ：“ jiù xiàng nǐ men suǒ jiàn dào de zhè yàng ， wàn jiè lián hé huì 、 nǎi shì lián hé zhū jiè cán cún xiū shì lì liàng de lián hé 。 zì rán yǒu xiē lái zì qí tā shì jiè de yí bǎo 。”
李凡笑了笑，不再解释：“就像你们所见到的这样，万界联合会、乃是联合诸界残存修士力量的联合。自然有些来自其他世界的遗宝。”
"Friend Hundred Flowers!" Li Fan called out here.
“ zī yuán fāng miàn ， nǐ men bù yòng de dān xīn 。 jiù suàn nǐ men quán tǐ mǎo zú lì jìn liàn dān ， kǒng pà xiāo hào de sù dù yě wèi bì néng gǎn de shàng zài shēng de sù dù 。”
“资源方面，你们不用的担心。就算你们全体铆足力劲炼丹，恐怕消耗的速度也未必能赶得上再生的速度。”
Hundred Flowers Daoist appeared slowly before them.
“ bǎi huā dào yǒu ！” shuō dào zhè lǐ ， lǐ fán hǎn le yī shēng 。
“百花道友！”说到这里，李凡喊了一声。
"This is..."
bǎi huā dào rén zhè shí shān shān lái chí ， xiàn yú zhòng rén miàn qián 。
百花道人这时姗姗来迟，现于众人面前。
"Immortal Realm?" Liu Ruchen and others changed their expressions.
“ zhè shì ……”
“这是……”
"I'll introduce you to Hundred Flowers Daoist. She comes from a distant realm, Wan Sheng Yi Jie. It's thanks to her that the spirit plants thrive so vibrantly. If any of you are skilled in this area, feel free to discuss with Friend Hundred Flowers," Li Fan said with a smile.
“ cháng shēng jìng ？” liǔ rú chén děng rén miàn sè yī biàn 。
“长生境？”柳如尘等人面色一变。
The Medicine King Sect members bowed to Hundred Flowers Daoist.
“ wǒ lái jiè shào xià ， bǎi huā dào rén ， lái zì yáo yuǎn de wàn shèng yī jiè 。 zhèng shì yǒu tā zhào liào cǐ dì líng zhí ， cái huì rú shēng jī àng rán 。 nǐ men dāng zhōng ruò shì yě yǒu shàn cháng cǐ dào zhě ， kě gēn bǎi huā dào yǒu jiāo liú yī fān 。” lǐ fán xiào zhe shuō dào 。
“我来介绍下，百花道人，来自遥远的万盛一界。正是有她照料此地灵植，才会如生机盎然。你们当中若是也有擅长此道者，可跟百花道友交流一番。”李凡笑着说道。
Though Hundred Flowers was weaker in Li Fan’s eyes,
yào wáng zōng jǐ rén jù shì duì bǎi huā dào rén xíng le yī lǐ 。
药王宗几人俱是对百花道人行了一礼。
she was still a genuine Immortal Realm cultivator. The Medicine King Sect members, out of instinctive respect for long-lived cultivators, treated her with great deference.
suī rán bǎi huā zài lǐ fán yǎn zhōng shì ruò le yì diǎn 。
虽然百花在李凡眼中是弱了一点。
Hundred Flowers Daoist hadn’t experienced such attention for a long time and felt somewhat elated.
dàn què shì huò zhēn jià shí de cháng shēng jìng xiū shì ， yào wáng zōng jǐ rén chū yú duì cháng shēng xiū shì de běn néng jìng wèi ， yīn ér duì bǎi huā de tài dù shí fēn gōng jìng 。
但却是货真价实的长生境修士，药王宗几人出于对长生修士的本能敬畏，因而对百花的态度十分恭敬。
She proactively introduced the distribution and quantity of spirit plants in the Wood Attribute Cave Realm, eliciting rounds of admiration.
bǎi huā dào rén yě xǔ jiǔ méi yǒu xiǎng shòu guò zhè zhǒng mù guāng le ， bù jīn yǒu xiē piāo piāo rán 。
百花道人也许久没有享受过这种目光了，不禁有些飘飘然。
Finally, Li Fan revealed his request: "I need an elixir that can directly increase cultivation upon consumption. Ignore any side effects; just seek maximum efficiency for increasing cultivation. The more, the better."
zhǔ dòng wèi liǔ rú chén tā men jiè shào qǐ mù shǔ xìng dòng tiān dāng zhōng de líng zhí fēn bù yǐ jí shù liàng ， yǐn dé zhèn zhèn zàn tàn 。
主动为柳如尘他们介绍起木属性洞天当中的灵植分布以及数量，引得阵阵赞叹。
Li Fan's words drew everyone’s attention.
ér zhè shí ， lǐ fán yě zhōng yú tú qióng bǐ xiàn ， shuō chū le zì jǐ de yāo qiú 。
而这时，李凡也终于图穷匕见，说出了自己的要求。
However, they quickly realized this wasn’t something he would consume himself.
“ wǒ xū yào yī zhǒng ， tūn fú zhī hòu kě yǐ zhí jiē zēng jiā xiū wèi de dān yào 。 bú yào kǎo lǜ shén me fù zuò yòng ， zhǐ qiú zuì dà xiào lǜ de zēng jiā xiū wèi 。 duō duō yì shàn 。”
“我需要一种，吞服之后可以直接增加修为的丹药。不要考虑什么副作用，只求最大效率的增加修为。多多益善。”
This was Li Fan’s first task, and the Medicine King Sect members immediately agreed to it.
lǐ fán cǐ yán ， yǐn dé zhòng rén cè mù 。
李凡此言，引得众人侧目。
(End of Chapter)
"The more extraordinary the Heavenly King Xuan is, the more shocking his mysterious disappearance becomes."
"Perhaps this life, Mo Rujun's search for the Heavenly King Xuan will succeed..."
"I hope he merely suffered severe injuries and hid himself away. Rather than truly perishing or reincarnating as I suspected," Li Fan thought.

"I'll introduce you to Hundred Flowers Daoist. She comes from a distant realm, Wan Sheng Yi Jie. It's thanks to her that the spirit plants thrive so vibrantly. If any of you are skilled in this area, feel free to discuss with Friend Hundred Flowers," Li Fan said with a smile.
The Medicine King Sect members bowed to Hundred Flowers Daoist.
Though Hundred Flowers was weaker in Li Fan’s eyes,
she was still a genuine Immortal Realm cultivator. The Medicine King Sect members, out of instinctive respect for long-lived cultivators, treated her with great deference.
Hundred Flowers Daoist hadn’t experienced such attention for a long time and felt somewhat elated.
She proactively introduced the distribution and quantity of spirit plants in the Wood Attribute Cave Realm, eliciting rounds of admiration.
Finally, Li Fan revealed his request: "I need an elixir that can directly increase cultivation upon consumption. Ignore any side effects; just seek maximum efficiency for increasing cultivation. The more, the better."
Li Fan's words drew everyone’s attention.
However, they quickly realized this wasn’t something he would consume himself.
This was Li Fan’s first task, and the Medicine King Sect members immediately agreed to it.
