Chapter 268 The Road Ahead

Chapter 268: The Road Ahead

An Xian Yao (Immortal Medicine) that could grant infinite Lifespan and change one's destiny was actually eaten by a dog. It truly deserved to be struck by lightning.

Lin Fan stared at it resentfully, suddenly craving dog meat, revealing a mouthful of pearly white teeth.

At the same time, even Yue Chan, who was always peaceful and serene, felt that this dog was squandering a rare treasure.

"Woof, this King once suffered a calamity, and now that I've been dug out, if I don't eat the Elixir of Life, I won't have much time left to live. There's nothing I can do about it."

The Little Dog explained, blaming the two of them for interrupting its transformation and causing it to emerge prematurely.

"Besides, the root of this medicine is still here, and it will eventually bear new celestial seeds. And you two have plenty of Lifespan now, so you have plenty of time to wait."

At this, Lin Fan and Yue Chan's expressions softened as they looked at the trembling Xian Yao (Immortal Medicine).

"Don't eat me! Every once in a while, I can provide you with an endless supply of Elixir of Life…"

The Xian Yao (Immortal Medicine) immediately pleaded for mercy, explaining to them that a living version of itself would bring even more benefits.

If it were planted in one place, it could transform ordinary land into Immortal Soil, gather Purple Mansion liquid, Earth Marrow, and also help in treasure hunting.

The two were astonished. As expected of a medicine of this level, aside from being unable to Cultivate and having no combat power, its intelligence was no different from a living being, possessing various wondrous uses.

Furthermore, the aura of the Dao of Immortals around it was rich, divine light surged, and hazy immortal mist and light rain scattered.

"Hmm, this is…" Lin Fan was startled. The Immortal Qi within his body was nourished by this Qi, instantly becoming crystalline.

"How comfortable! No wonder ancient texts record that simply having Xian Yao (Immortal Medicine) by one's side is a great fortune!"

Lin Fan's heart trembled. Absorbing the aura of the Dao of Immortals from it could stabilize the Foundation of the Immortal Qi he had just Cultivated.

Before long, his Immortal Qi thickened somewhat, becoming even more substantial and imbued with the Qi of the Great Dao, as if undergoing a baptism.

"I can spare you, but you must follow me from now on."

Lin Fan took out an ancient cauldron containing Ten Thousand Things Soil, which was colorful and could nourish all things, making it most suitable for plants.

Moreover, his sacred medicines, divine medicines, and others had long been planted within it, greatly accelerating their growth and maturation.

"Swoosh!"

The next moment, the Xian Yao (Immortal Medicine) transformed into a small green mysterious turtle and very sensibly rooted itself inside, beginning to conceive new celestial seeds.

Of course, this process would not be short; it would be difficult to produce fruits that make one nearly immortal for at least several millennia.

Fortunately, Lin Fan could afford to wait. Compared to a Cultivator, his life had just begun and was in its infancy.

"That… shouldn't I also get a share of the Elixir of Life? After all, if I hadn't put in so much effort, it wouldn't have been caught."

The Little Dog was reluctant, staring at the Xian Yao (Immortal Medicine) with drool almost flowing out.

Lin Fan was speechless. This dead dog was truly insatiable, having obtained the most precious immortal fruit, yet still coveting other things.

However, he ignored it, certainly not allowing this dog to cause any more trouble. Then he put away the bone cauldron and the Chaos Magical Artifact, turned, and left with Yue Chan.

"Let's go! There's still a pool of liquid under the cliff that the Elixir of Life was soaked in. We can't waste it!"

Finally, they Cultivated directly under the cliff, soaking in the pool, which had the effect of purifying the Primordial Spirit and clarifying the Physical Body.

As for the Little Dog, it originally wanted to join in, but Lin Fan disliked it, filled a cauldron for it, and sent it to another place.

Because he and Yue Chan were taking a mandarin duck bath, what would it look like if a dog joined in?

"Boy, this is racial discrimination!" The Little Dog grumbled, indignantly searching for another spot to enter seclusion and refine the Xian Yao (Immortal Medicine) it had eaten.

To prevent prying eyes and to stop the essence from leaking, Lin Fan specifically set up a magical formation, clearly guarding against a certain dog's intentions.

Next, the two began to Cultivate, taking out the Elixir of Life, soaking their entire bodies in the precious liquid, and absorbing the aura of the Dao of Immortals from it, achieving twice the results with half the effort.

"Oh, I can go one step further and reach Perfection." Lin Fan was surprised.

He had not expected that Cultivating with the Xian Yao (Immortal Medicine) would allow the Immortal Qi coiling around his body to thicken again, making it incredibly sacred.

At this moment, endless light rain fell, constantly being absorbed into his body, nourishing his flesh, bones, and internal organs.

It was only many days later that Lin Fan was certain the immortal mist emitted by the Elixir of Life was useless, and his own Immortal Qi had been nourished to its limit, unable to strengthen any further.

"If I want to gain more, I can only Cultivate a second Immortal Qi." Lin Fan opened his eyes and pondered seriously.

Achieving an alternative form of godhood and Cultivating Immortal Qi, at its core, is planting one's own Dao, but only one Dao can be Cultivated from one path. A second path requires a different approach.

And this "different approach" can refer to a further sublimation on the original Dao, or an extension to broaden it.

For example, Shi Hao ignited Three Thousand Dao Fires to become a god, and then used the Myriad Daos of the Heavens as fire to Cultivate a second Immortal Qi.

"So what should I do?" Lin Fan murmured to himself.

His true body would not borrow any external objects for Fusion; everything had to be Cultivated by himself, so as not to be restrained.

At this time, he looked at the celestial seed he had obtained a few years ago. It not only contained the power of Reincarnation but also exuded the Law of Time.

"I haven't taken that step and Cultivated an Immortal Qi yet. It seems I can't absorb the aura of the Dao of Immortals." Yue Chan also woke up, sighing softly.

She Cultivated here, constantly drawing immortal mist into her body. Although it could nourish her Physical Body and Primordial Spirit, it could not be retained and would eventually dissipate.

"I also need to work hard, enter seclusion to comprehend the Dao, and take another step forward."

She was very serene, but she also understood that taking that step was too difficult. From ancient times until now, successful individuals were one in a million, like a Phoenix feather or a unicorn horn.

However, Yue Chan's confidence was still strong. The Qing Yue Flame illuminated her path ahead, making it increasingly clear.

"No rush. With your husband protecting you, take your time." Lin Fan teased.

Yue Chan rolled her eyes at him. She was not an accessory, nor did she want to be a little woman who only hid behind him.

"Perhaps I should undergo Fusion with Qingyi. The chances of Cultivating Immortal Qi would be higher, and I might even soar directly?" She pondered, her true body at Perfection.

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan quickly advised, "It's too early. You're only in the Divine Fire Realm now. Wait until you reach the Master Level before Fusion; your achievements will be even greater."

"Is that so? But why do I feel like you don't mean that, as if you're strongly against my Fusion with my secondary body?"

A woman's intuition is usually very strong, which made Yue Chan suspect that this guy had ulterior motives.

Moreover, Qingyi had left the Lower Realm without reason earlier, her whereabouts unknown, which was likely related to Lin Fan.

"Yue Yue, I'm doing this all for your own good. Think about it, if both you and Qingyi Cultivate Immortal Qi, and each of you has three, how strong would you be when you fuse then!" Lin Fan said righteously.

"That seems true. Then I'll wait a bit longer and let Qingyi participate in the future Three Thousand Provinces great war to contend for the ultimate fortune."

Yue Chan was moved, and there was a hint of anticipation on her beautiful face.

Furthermore, although she couldn't retain the aura of the Dao of Immortals, soaking in the pool also brought her immense benefits; her Physical Body was like a baptism.

At this moment, her snow-white skin was flawless, as delicate as mutton-fat jade, every inch becoming more translucent.

As she moved, there was an unparalleled allure that drew Lin Fan's attention, making him restless, his divine fire growing increasingly vibrant.

"Ah…"
