2023-09-28 04:57:19Chapter #16: Realm of the Early Fighter
Days passed quickly, and seven days had already gone by. Sun Li had fully recovered and was just a step away from reaching the Mid Earth Realm. Xi Shi, too, had regained her mobility, and her injuries were healing, with Tian Fan's care and treatment significantly aiding her recovery.
Meanwhile, Elder Liubei spent his days practicing pill purification using Tian Fan's methods. In seven days, Elder Liubei successfully created Sky-level purification pills. Elder Liubei and Tian Fan exchanged knowledge about pill-making, even attempting to purify Tian Fan's dirty pills. Although far from perfect, Tian Fan's creations were more effective than the pills available in the market.
Furthermore, Tian Fan's elemental qi-filling pills were his own creations, designed to strengthen a cultivator's qi while enhancing their elemental affinity. These pills made it much easier for cultivators to reinforce their elemental attributes.
For example, in the case of alchemists, with an elemental qi-filling pill, they could easily manipulate their qi and strengthen the elemental attribute used for pill purification. Essentially, they could achieve the same results with only half the effort compared to normal conditions.
Elder Liubei made the most of this opportunity, even instructing Sun Li and Xi Shi to take notes on everything they learned from Tian Fan. Tian Fan had no objections because he believed that the growth of alchemists would automatically improve the abilities of cultivators in the Eastern Continent.
Tian Fan, in return, received numerous pill recipes from Elder Liubei, along with many manuals on alchemy. This allowed Tian Fan to learn many new things.
Tian Fan also took this opportunity to create numerous pills, as he had a surplus of ingredients. He made dozens of Sky-level qi-filling pills, and half of them even reached the Heavenly level.
Additionally, Tian Fan crafted dantian cleansing pills, antidote pills, bone-forming pills, and many others listed in Elder Liubei's pill book. Of course, Tian Fan did all of this without Elder Liubei's knowledge because he didn't want to undermine Elder Liubei's confidence in his own abilities.
Moreover, Tian Fan didn't want to waste any more time. He was determined to start his adventure and gain more experience.
The awaited day finally arrived. Today, Tian Fan had decided to begin his adventure since Xi Shi and Sun Li were fully recovered.
Elder Liubei, who had become quite skilled in Tian Fan's alchemical techniques, was now proficient in creating pills with Sky-level effectiveness. Among the Level 1 alchemists in the Sun Sect, he was possibly the only one capable of achieving such results.
"Sister Tian, are you sure you don't want to come with us to the Sun Sect now?" Elder Liubei urged, still reluctant to part ways with Tian Fan.
"Indeed, Alchemist Tian, please join us right away," Sun Li added.
"Elder Liubei, Senior Li, Senior Shi, please stop using those titles," Tian Fan protested. He felt uncomfortable with the new titles. "I am not yet worthy of such titles. Please, just call me as you always have."
"Junior, you will definitely join the Sun Sect someday, but for now, I wish to gain more experiences out there. I hope Elder and both Seniors can understand," Tian Fan responded firmly.
The three of them sighed at Tian Fan's response.
"Very well, we will await your arrival at the Sun Sect. Take this Sun Sect token with you; it may come in handy," Elder Liubei offered.
"And on your journey, consider this a token of my respect, please accept it without refusal," Tian Fan accepted it to avoid further argument.
Finally, Elder Liubei, Sun Li, and Xi Shi headed back to the Sun Sect, while Tian Fan chose to depart alone, eager to continue practicing his skills. Tian Fan hadn't practiced his martial arts for nearly a month due to his intense focus on alchemy.
Tian Fan approached Rain, Shandian, and the ten silver wolves. He found it difficult to leave them behind, as they were his first companions.
Tian Fan signaled to them that he was leaving, and the pack of silver wolves seemed equally reluctant.
"Take care of yourselves, be strong, and become the strongest in the Red Forest. Here are some gifts from me, my friends," Tian Fan said as he hugged each of them and gave them two pills each.
Tian Fan walked away from them, and not far from where he left the silver wolf pack, their distinctive howling echoed through the forest. All twelve silver wolves experienced a realm and level increase.
"I hope we meet again, my friends," Tian Fan murmured.
Tian Fan stood on a mountaintop in the deepest part of the area, holding a bloodstained sword in his right hand and the core of a Flame Bison, a final-stage fighter, in his left.
The 3-meter-tall Flame Bison's lifeless body lay beneath him.
Tian Fan promptly absorbed the Flame Bison's core, and soon, a black cloud formed above his head, with two lightning bolts striking his body.
A burst of red qi emanated from his body, which then condensed and stabilized.
"Realm of the Early Fighter," Tian Fan declared.
Tian Fan took a dantian cleansing pill and immediately resumed his cultivation to strengthen his foundation.
Half a month passed, and Tian Fan finally left the Red Forest. Following Elder Liubei's previous instructions, he headed north from his current location. Approximately half a day's journey away was the nearest city to the Red Forest, called Greenleaf City.
From there, Tian Fan planned to begin his adventure. The rest of his journey would be dictated by the direction of the wind, taking him towards the Sun Sect and his mentor.
After half a day, Tian Fan arrived at Greenleaf City. He waited in line and eventually entered the city.
Tian Fan headed straight to the Lotus Flower Shop. According to the information he received from Elder Liubei, the Lotus Flower Shop was a specialized place for buying and selling pills and other necessities for cultivators. These shops were present in all cities within the Sun Kingdom's territory.
From the beginning, Tian Fan intended to earn money by selling some beast cores and his own pills.
However, upon arriving at the shop, Tian Fan felt a bit lost since it was his first time there. None of the shop attendants approached him, as they judged him by his shabby appearance and assumed he was just there to browse. Even if he did make a purchase, it would likely be a small one that wouldn't earn them a bonus.
(Turns out, most people judge and appreciate others based on their appearance, status, and wealth.)
Seeing Tian Fan's confusion, a young attendant, feeling sympathy for him, approached Tian Fan, despite receiving criticism from her colleagues.
"Young master, welcome to the Lotus Flower Shop. How may Mei Mei assist you?" she asked politely.
"Miss Mei Mei, I apologize for bothering you. I have some items I'd like to sell. Could you help me with that?" Tian Fan inquired.
"Young master, please don't call me 'Miss.' Mei Mei is just a shop attendant here. You can address me by my name directly."

Very well, may Mei Mei see the pills and beast cores you wish to sell so that our appraiser can assess and examine them first."Tian Fan took out a bottle of Qi-filling pills and a fighter realm beast core while whispering to the attendant, "Miss, I will be selling 10 bottles of Sky-level Qi-filling pills and 30 fighter realm beast cores."Mei Mei was surprised by what she heard and immediately asked Tian Fan to wait for a moment. She rushed to the second floor to meet the manager."Mr. Tang... Mr. Tang!" Mei Mei impatiently called out while knocking on the manager's office door.Tang Zun, the manager of the Lotus Flower Shop branch in Greenleaf City, was annoyed because his conversation with Mu Rong, a Level 2 Alchemist from the main pavilion of the Lotus Flower, was being disrupted."Come in...

Chapter #18: The Influence of Gold Coins Tian Fan now possessed gold coins, and it was the first time in his life. He couldn't help but wonder how different his life might have been if he had these gold coins earlier. Perhaps his mother wouldn't have died of starvation. Tian Fan made a promise to himself that he would help others facing hardships, just as he once did. Not wanting to dwell in sadness, Tian Fan began to stroll around Greenleaf City, visiting various places and observing how people interacted. He eventually stopped at a clothing store, recalling the events at the Lotus Flower Shop. While walking around, he remembered the incident and decided to buy some clothes, spending just a few dozen silver coins (1 gold coin = 100 silver coins). After changing into his new clothes, Tian Fan's appearance changed, and many people greeted him with respect, especially considering his handsome face. Tian Fan remained composed and continued to explore the city. At the outskirts, he f

Tian Fan inquired."We have a few, but they are only at the Fighter Realm level," Manager Zun replied.Tian Fan nodded."I would like to try making a pill to strengthen the water element. Can Manager Zun provide me with one?""A strengthening element pill?" Mu Rong said with surprise, as he had never heard of such a pill before."Young Master Fan, I've never heard of a pill like that. Wouldn't it be better to use existing pills?" Mu Rong offered his opinion."In that case, Master Mu Rong, could you recommend a pill that would be suitable for Miss Zhui?" Tian Fan inquired."Well..." Mu Rong hesitated, unable to provide an answer."What about a meridian-cleansing pill? With that, Miss Xin Zhui's qi and aura have already returned to normal. By giving her this pill again, there's a chance she could awaken more quickly," Zhaojun suggested."Please go ahead and

Chapter #20: Beginning the AdventureTian Fan prepared to leave the Green Leaf Town, dressed in ordinary peasant clothing with a woven rattan bag on his back and a bamboo hat on his head. He walked out of the inn.After passing through the town's gate, Tian Fan headed east. He intended to visit every village and town in the Sun Kingdom, believing that his experiences would sharpen his skills as a physician."It's time to begin the adventure," Tian Fan said enthusiastically.Elsewhere...Mu Rong, Zhaojun, Zhang Wei, and Manager Tang Zun observed Xin Zhui, who was still in the lotus position. Her aura had stabilized significantly after she had taken the second element-strengthening pill.Xin Zhui opened her eyes and immediately leaped out of the window and into the open field. The four of them followed her.In the middle of the open field, Xin Zhui assumed the lotus position once again, and her aura, which had reached the Earth Realm initial stage, began to thicken."Don't get too close

She felt her skin had become incredibly smooth, and the aura of the Earth Realm final stage radiated from her body.At just 17 years old, reaching the Earth Realm final stage was a remarkable achievement, and Xin Zhui was likely the only one in the entire Eastern Continent to have accomplished it."Tian Fan's pills are truly incredible. Without his help, I could never have come this far. I need to thank him and become friends with Young Master Fan," she muttered.Xin Zhui emerged from her room, wearing her finest clothes. Her face lit up with joy, and a touch of makeup enhanced her beauty.She approached Mu Rong, Zhaojun, Zhang Wei, and Manager Tang Zun, who were waiting in the central room."Aunt Zhaojun, how do I look? Is there anything missing? Zhui'er wants to look perfect in front of Young Master Fan," she exclaimed.The four of them looked at their young miss with a hint of surprise since t

They shared their findings with him.They all presented their findings to Tian Fan, who took a moment to think while connecting the examination results, food-related information, and the recent environmental conditions."It's becoming clear now. It's highly likely that the villagers are suffering from poisoning, possibly from drinking water and consuming fish from the river," Tian Fan stated firmly."Brother Zhao, please take a few people and inspect the riverbanks upstream. Check if there's anything unusual around the river. If you find anything, report back immediately.""Understood," replied Meng Zhao promptly.Tian Fan then prepared a mild antidote and some other herbal remedies to alleviate the symptoms experienced by the sick villagers.Thanks t

Chapter #23: The AttackTian Fan took out a variety of medicinal herbs and began manually crafting remedies. First, Tian Fan prepared the lead poison antidote by cooking it in his own medicine furnace.Due to the large number of ailing villagers, it would have been a considerable waste of time to cook the medicine in small pots, so Tian Fan chose to use his pill furnace.Within the span of three incense sticks burning, the lead poison antidote was successfully prepared, and the process of administering the medicine continued until late in the evening.Treating hundreds of people at once was truly cumbersome when done alone.Fortunately, the village chief called back the healthy villagers to assist in the initial stage of administering the herbal remedy.Tian Fan and the village chief gathered the villagers in the courtyard of the village chief's house to inform each group of their tasks.Just as Tian Fan had finished giving instructions to the gathered villagers, his instincts suddenl

He then carried her back to the village.Tian Fan sensed the old man following him from a distance, but he paid him no mind. His top priority was the people of Awan Village.He worried about the condition of the villagers. The lead poisoning issue wasn't resolved yet, and now there were also villagers wounded due to the city's attack.With the young woman on his back, Tian Fan entered the village. The village chief and the villagers gathered in the center of the village, and his heart ached as he saw dozens of dead bodies with arrows piercing through them.Seeing Tian Fan's arrival, the villagers who were gathered made way for him. Tian Fan gently lowered the unconscious young woman from his back and placed her in front of the village chief."Master Meng Zi, do you know this woman?" asked the vil

Fortunately, they had good groups during the exam, which allowed them to pass up to this stage.""Unfortunately, their arrogance and pride clouded their hearts, limiting the potential and abilities they possess," Bao Xin remarked flatly as she watched them leave.Bao Xin then turned his gaze toward Tian Fan. "How did you manage to answer all the questions correctly in the first test? And the second and third tests those are not easy for a beginner like you to pass.

Chapter #1127. Three ThingsTian Fan took a deep breath, his face glowing as he stared at the device that was part of the class advancement exam."I didn't expect to get a perfect score. All that effort in practicing the knowledge Dian Ning taught me and applying it to injured beasts wasn't in vain," he thought to himself.His mind wandered back to Dian Ning. He was slightly curious why she hadn't woken up yet, especially now that he had Qi energy in his dantian that she could absorb as well.Not wanting to waste time pondering a question with no clear answer, Tian Fan snapped out of his thoughts, turned around, and walked toward Bao Xin.As he approached, he stopped abruptly, his brows furrowing at the scene before him. One of the ten students was pinned against the wall, while Xi La and the others looked anxious, their faces pale. Only Master Bao Xin appeared relaxed and pleased as he gazed at Tian Fan."I never expected you to complete the entire exam with a perfect score. You're t

You’re the ones displaying arrogance and conceit here... You have ears, yet it seems Master Bao Xin’s words have been completely disregarded by you. Or perhaps you're simply deaf, unable to listen properly?" he said, his tone dripping with sarcasm.Xi La and the others faces turned red with fury, the veins on their necks and faces bulging as they clenched their fists tightly, their emotions boiling over."What’s wrong? You don’t like what I said? Are you mad at me? Then what will you do about it? Beat me up? Come on, then!" Tian Fan taunted with a relaxed grin.All the young men hesitated, rema

The rest are at the second level, possessing knowledge of surgery, and only you are still at the first level, where you only master medical knowledge," she stated, pointing first at the only girl in the group and then at Tian Fan.Immediately, the other nine turned their gazes toward Tian Fan with disdain and mockery. Tian Fan, however, paid them no mind, remaining indifferent to their reactions."But... that is only based on the records you submitted upon registration. These are self assessments of your abilities or recommendations from your previous institutions, not my evaluation!""Don't get too comfortable or proud j

However, the sound of echoing footsteps entering the hall put the confrontation on hold.Everyone’s attention turned toward the left side of the hall, where a corridor was located.From there, five figures emerged.Two elderly men who had earlier announced the test results walked in front, followed closely by two men and a woman.They ascended the podium and took their positions in an orderly manner.Noticing the robes they wore and the flame symbols on their belts, Tian Fan immediately understood their status. As a former student of Star Academy, he recognized the significance of the symbols."So those two old men are actually the headmaster and vice

Lu Bu asked Wei Lan and Tian Fan, who stood in front of him.Wei Lan turned around and gave Lu Bu a sharp glare, finding him too talkative."I don’t know. If you’re asking me, then who am I supposed to ask?" she retorted.Lu Bu scratched his head awkwardly and simply flashed Wei Lan a broad smile as a silent apology.Meanwhile, Tian Fan remained silent, his gaze fixed forward. He carefully observed the hall’s atmosphere without glancing elsewhere.His demeanor wasn’t without reason several pairs of sharp, competitive eyes were fixed on him.Amidst the tension, a voice suddenly emerged from the group standing to his right."Hey, you. You’ve been standing there without looking anywhere else. Are you

There is no room for cheating, all these results are purely the result of your hard work, and your every activity is clearly recorded there, so the results are indisputable." He explained emphatically.The man then stared in several directions where groups of prospective students were staying, their tokens still attached to their group members."Those of you whose tokens are not within this magic diagram have failed the test, please take your leave." He said while pointing to a large magic diagram located on a wall of the academy.The young cultivators seemed displeased with the results but saw the flying light balls hovering in t

"I don't know if it's just me but I feel like everyone is watching us," Wei Lan said nervously."It doesn't seem like a feeling, but a reality!"

"Your attitude shows that you are not afraid of us, you are acting mysterious! Do you think I will fall for your cheap tricks!" He exclaimed angrily.Tian Fan only showed a cynical smile, he then walked slowly while dragging his sword where the tip touched the surface of the floor which created a ring above him.No words were spoken, only the sharp gaze coupled with the cold face he showed at Zu Mong and his two colleagues made the three of them stunned and felt pressured by it. Every step that was taken made a bad feeling fill Zu Mong's heart, with
