Chapter Index

Following Yu, they went deeper into the palace. It was not until an hour later that they came to a tall great wizard with a powerful aura. The great wizard didn’t know what kind of witchcraft he was practicing. His whole body’s aura was as awe-inspiring as thunder, and his gaze was sharp, making Yang Kai feel extremely uncomfortable all over.

“Master Che, this is Wu Niu!” Yu respectfully performed a barbarian shaman ceremony, not even daring to raise his eyelids, introducing Yang Kai who was standing beside him to Che.

Yang Kai also followed the local customs, reached out and touched his chest, bent over and said, “Wu Niu, greets Master Che!”

Che nodded slightly, and when he opened his mouth, his voice was like a muffled thunder, rumbling: “You are the shaman who prepared the healing medicine?”

“Exactly!” Yang Kai raised his head and met Che’s gaze.

Che said with great interest, “It’s very rare to see a barbarian like you. Are you from the Floating Tribe?”

Yang Kai shook his head and said, “Southern Barbarian Tribe. I’m just born relatively weak.”

No Wu or barbarian would deny their origin. That would be a contempt for themselves. So although Yang Kai looked frail and seemed very much like a member of the Floating Tribe, since he said so, Che didn’t question it.

The corner of his mouth twitched, revealing a smile uglier than crying, and said, “Pharmacists don’t need too strong a physique. The healing potions you configured are sought after by my tribesmen, so there’s no need to be self-abased.”

“Thank you for your praise, sir!”

Yang Kai’s neither humble nor pushy appearance made Che look at him with some new eyes. There were not many top-grade Wu warriors who could act so freely and easily in the face of himself.

Wait a minute… Didn’t Yu say that he was just a low-grade Wu warrior? How could he be a top-grade Wu warrior?

There was a difference of two grades in between. He believed that Yu would not make a mistake in this intelligence.

Although he was suspicious in his heart, Che didn’t ask too much, but just said, “I believe Yu has told you the purpose of inviting you here.”

Yang Kai said, “Yu indeed said it, and I, Wu Niu, am also willing to contribute my own strength to the Frost Snow Tribe.”

The light in Che’s eyes flickered, and he smiled and said, “Very good. In that case, Yu… take Wu Niu in. If there are any medicinal materials needed, just report them.”

“Yes!” Yu responded and then led Yang Kai in.

Not long after, the two entered a wing room. To Yang Kai’s surprise, there were already two people here, and they were old. The auras on their bodies were much stronger than his own. Obviously, they were both at the level of Wu Shi.

One of the two old men had white hair, and the other had grizzled hair. After seeing Yu and Yang Kai come in, they both showed inquiring eyes to Yu.

Yu nodded slightly, and then the two old men stepped forward and said in unison, “Greetings to Lord Niu!”

Yang Kai was Stunned and said, “These two are…”

Yu’s expression was a bit unnatural as he said, “They are the helpers arranged for you by Lord Che. If you need any help, just tell them.”

“Is that so…” Yang Kai smiled slightly. Although he had some guesses in his heart, he didn’t expose it. After all, this wasn’t a big deal for him. Seeing Yang Kai’s meaningful smile, Yu’s expression became even more unnatural, and there was even a hint of guilt faintly.

Fortunately, Yang Kai didn’t question much and just said, “I need some medicinal materials. Please help me get them.”

“Oh, okay. What are all the things needed?” Yu quickly asked.

Yang Kai immediately reported the names of those medicinal materials, and Yu memorized them one by one in his heart. At this moment, the two old men also pricked up their ears, listened intently, and refused to miss even the slightest bit.

A moment later, after Yang Kai finished reporting the names of various medicinal materials and the required amounts, Yu immediately turned around and went out to prepare.

In the room, there were only Yang Kai and the two old men left. Yang Kai turned his head and said, “What are the names of the two seniors?”

The two looked at each other, both shook their heads and waved their hands with embarrassed expressions, looking like they didn’t want to reveal their names.

Yang Kai found it funny. He thought that the ancient barbarians were really the ancient barbarians. They were simple and simple. Although what they did to steal learning skills was a bit inappropriate, their own consciences were probably condemned, so they didn’t want to reveal their names.

Yang Kai didn’t force them either. Instead, he found a place on his own, took out a handful of Demon Insect Inner Cores from the baggage he carried with him and stuffed them directly into his mouth and swallowed them in one gulp.

These Demon Insect Inner Cores were like grains of rice, not only small in size but also low in the energy they contained. Yang Kai could eat dozens of them in one go. Strange noises came from his abdomen, which left the two old men who came to steal the art dumbfounded. However, the two of them didn’t know exactly what Yang Kai had eaten. They only knew that he should be cultivating, so although they were surprised, they also remained silent and did not disturb him.

But in just the time it took to burn a stick of incense, Yang Kai had already refined the Inner Cores he had swallowed, and his aura suddenly became a little stronger.

When he repeated the process again, the two old men finally saw clearly what he was eating.

The white-haired old man was shocked and quickly stopped him, saying, “Lord Niu, these are Barbarian Beast Inner Cores. How can you swallow them?

The flowery-haired old man also stopped him, saying, “You can’t eat them, you can’t eat them!”

They had never seen anyone dare to swallow Barbarian Beast Inner Cores like this. Wasn’t he afraid of being?

“I’ve always eaten them like this,” Yang Kai said as he kept putting one Inner Core after another into his mouth. The sound of crunching could be heard in his mouth, which made the two old men’s hair stand on end and they looked at him like he was a monster.

Do the two of you want some? The taste of monster insects, crunchy! Yang Kai reached out his hand with a smile and spread out his palm.

The two old men shook their heads like rattles, extremely horrified.

Fortunately, at this time, a large number of barbarians from the Frost and Snow Tribe suddenly poured in from the outside. Each of them brought a large amount of medicinal materials. Yu led the team and directed those tribesmen to classify and place the medicinal materials aside.

After all the medicinal materials were placed properly, Yu said, “Wu Niu, all the things you want are here. I will guard outside. If you need anything else, just call me.”

“Thank you!” Yang Kai nodded slightly at her.

Yu turned around and left, closing the door.

Yang Kai closed his eyes and adjusted his breath, refining the inner elixirs swallowed into his abdomen. Then he opened his eyes and said to the two old men, “Then let’s start.”

The expressions of the two old men became solemn, and they stood up together.

“Two Huayu branches, one Dipi fruit, three Gufei grasses…” Yang Kai continuously reported the names and quantities of the medicinal materials. After being stunned for a moment, the two old men immediately entered the state and accurately found the things Yang Kai needed from the countless medicinal herbs. Whether it was the type or the quantity, there was not the slightest difference.

Soon, a pile of medicinal materials was piled up in front of Yang Kai.

Yang Kai smiled and said, “You two watch carefully…”

As he finished speaking, he casually picked up several medicinal herbs, and a ball of fire suddenly appeared in his other hand, flickering and swaying, with the temperature rising and falling up and down.

The expressions of the two old men immediately turned solemn. Ignoring their shame and guilt, their eyes stared fixedly at the movements of Yang Kai’s hands, without moving for a moment.

They were both the most outstanding pharmacists in the Frost and Snow Tribe and also highly respected existences. This time, they were arranged by Wu Che to learn from others secretly, and they felt really ashamed in their hearts. But they also knew that they simply couldn’t configure that miraculous healing medicine. Although they knew the ingredients of the medicinal herbs in it, they still felt powerless.

However, the medicines mastered by a pharmacist were often the secrets of a tribe and would not be easily leaked. If they wanted to know the configuration method of this healing medicine, they could only cooperate with Wu Che and assist this Wu Niu in the name of assistants, and then secretly learn from it.

Who would have known that the other party had already seen through their intentions and didn’t mean to hide anything at all. Not only did he openly configure the medicine, but he even had the intention of deliberately teaching them.

This kind of mind and sentiment, compared with their own despicable practices, was simply worlds apart, making the two highly respected pharmacists even more condemned by their consciences.

Although they felt guilty, when it came to the art of refining medicine, the two pharmacists were extremely focused and persistent. So at this moment, they both held their breaths and watched intently, preparing to thank and apologize to this Wu Niu properly later.

With Yang Kai, a great alchemist of the Emperor level, personally demonstrating and teaching, the secret of refining that healing medicine was quickly understood by the two old men.

They were originally quite good pharmacists. The configuration of Yang Kai’s healing medicine was not too difficult, but some of the refining techniques seemed rather peculiar. The two old men only needed to think about it a little to understand it thoroughly. After all, they also had a profound foundation in refining medicine.

So in less than a day, the two pharmacists basically mastered the configuration method of that healing medicine and began to test it themselves with Yang Kai’s encouragement.

Yang Kai ignored them and refined his inner core to improve his cultivation. He just waited for them to finish refining and then check it, put forward his opinions, and point out their mistakes in the refining process.

The quality of the healing medicine made by the two pharmacists was also becoming increasingly perfect.

Time passed quietly. In the palace, the two old men and the young man almost forgot the passage of time.

Although the two pharmacists of the Frost Snow Tribe were old, they were excited every day during these days. Because the more they contacted this Wu Niu, the more they discovered the horror of the pharmaceutical knowledge mastered by this young pharmacist. Often, a casual instruction from the other party could make them have a sense of sudden enlightenment and benefit infinitely.

The healing medicine made by them was no different from that refined by Yang Kai himself. In other words, this healing medicine could be used as a common medicine for the Frost Snow Tribe people in the future. There was no need to worry about ordinary external injuries at all.

This was a major event that benefited the entire tribe, making the two old men grateful to Yang Kai.

Ten days passed in a flash, and the large number of medicinal materials delivered by Yu were all refined into healing medicine by the two old men. With such a quantity of healing medicine, the tribe did not have to worry about external injuries for at least twenty years. They could even sell it to other tribes in exchange for other precious cultivation and living materials.

When the two old men were concentrating on refining medicine, they did not notice that at a certain moment, the aura on Yang Kai suddenly increased a lot. At the same time, the inner elixirs of those demonic insects he had harvested were also completely exhausted.

Feeling his own situation with joy on his face, Yang Kai opened his eyes slightly and the light in his eyes was like a bolt of lightning, frighteningly bright.

The difficulties in the early stage have passed, and the cultivation in the future will be a smooth journey, and what awaits oneself will definitely be a situation of rapid progress.
