"What's wrong, Qiu Qian? What happened?" Ling Zhenfei asked with concern in his heart.
"Divine Doctor Brother, can I et with you?" Qiu Qian's voice was low and carried a hint of pleading.
Ling Zhenfei said with a smile, "Of course, we're friends, aren't we?"
"It's just that now you're a celebrity. eting with won't cause you any trouble, will it? I'm really worried," Qiu Qian said with so concern.
"Xiao Qian, what's going on? No matter who I've beco, I am still your Divine Doctor Brother. Whatever your issue is, just tell . Whether you're facing any troubles or there's sothing making you unhappy, you can talk to . I will be there for you." Ling Zhenfei's words ca straight from the heart.
Qiu Qian was very happy to hear Ling Zhenfei's words, "Thank you, Divine Doctor Brother. Actually, it's nothing major, just so things happening at ho."
"Tell about it. We don't need to stand on ceremony with each other."
"My dad has already divorced He Yun," Qiu Qian said in a low voice.
Ling Zhenfei was taken aback when he heard this, but quickly understood. There had long been no marital affection between He Yun and Qiu Qing, and with the poisoning incident last ti, it was clear that the person behind it was He Yun. It made sense for the two of them to get a divorce.
Qiu Qian then continued, "My dad wants to go to another place to learn how to manage our family's enterprise. I will take over only once his health is fully recovered."
"Learning to manage the family enterprise is a good thing. Why don't you seem happy about it?" Ling Zhenfei asked, puzzled.
Qiu Qian stuttered for a long ti before saying, "I'm afraid that once I'm gone, I'll never see Divine Doctor Brother again."
Ling Zhenfei was stunned for a mont, not expecting that his own issue was involved, nor that Qiu Qian would have such feelings for him.
"That won't happen, I'm right here. How could you not see ? If you miss , you can always co back to see . And if I have ti, I will go see you too."
"Really, Divine Doctor Brother? Will you really co to see ?" Qiu Qian asked with joy filling her heart.
"Of course. I promise," Ling Zhenfei said with utmost seriousness.
"That's wonderful! Now that you've said so, Divine Doctor Brother, I can go with peace of mind." Qiu Qian sounded overjoyed.
"When are you leaving? I'll co to see you before you go."
Ever since he cured Qiu Qing's illness, Ling Zhenfei hadn't visited the Qiu Family again. With Qiu Qian leaving, he planned to see her off before she left.
"My flight is tomorrow afternoon. Do you have ti to co by tomorrow morning?" Qiu Qian asked tentatively.
"Okay, I'll co over tomorrow morning. I should be free tomorrow morning."
"Then it's settled. Divine Doctor Brother, I'll wait for you at the gate tomorrow morning."
The two agreed to et at the Qiu Family residence early the next morning, then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Ling Zhenfei's thoughts once again turned to the items in his Heaven-Dropping Essence Marrow. Inside the Essence Marrow, there still remained the mysterious dagger of unknown material, and the ancient Pill Furnace.
He placed both items on the table. Both were very ancient items, clearly weathered by the years, especially the Pill Furnace, which bore a more pronounced sense of age. When he gently opened the lid, he could still catch the faint scent of elixirs.
It was impossible to know how many brothers had used this furnace to concoct miraculous elixirs, and after many such exchanges, it had co into his possession. There were very few alchemists left in society nowadays, and only he could fully utilize the Pill Furnace's capabilities.
The dical Classic Section of Ling Zhenfei's "Immortal Herbs Farming and dical Classic" included a section dedicated to the introduction of elixirs, as well as many thods for crafting Spirit Pills. He hadn't paid much attention to elixir crafting before, but now that he had the Pill Furnace, he planned to make elixirs regularly.
Elixirs ca in many categories, such as those for healing, for maintaining health, and then there were Spirit Pills, like the Breakthrough Pill that Snake Head and Hu Tou were desperately trying to obtain, which belonged to the category of Spirit Pills.
Apart from the Breakthrough Pill, there were many other elixirs like the Qi Training Pill, Spirit Qi Pill, Ascension Pill, and Nine Turns Pill, each with different functions but powerful effects. So could even revive the dead and nd broken bones.
Regrettably, crafting these elixir required rare herbs that were almost extinct in today's society. It was impossible for ordinary people to concoct these elixirs.
Ling Zhenfei was no ordinary man. Inside his Heaven-Dropping Essence Marrow lay countless rare and precious treasures, including many Immortal Herbs. Ling Zhenfei had already planned to cultivate these herbs on Xianling Mountain and nearby areas, transplanting Immortal Herbs from his Essence Marrow to the mountain.
Once he began cultivating on a large scale, he would be able to produce Spirit Qi Pills and other power-enhancing elixirs en masse. Daily consumption of Immortal Herbs would surely boost his powers to an unmatched level in the shortest ti possible.
The thought of crafting elixirs put Ling Zhenfei in high spirits. He decided he would definitely spend ti crafting various elixirs in the future to test his skills.
As for the Phoenix Essence sealed within the Pill Furnace, Ling Zhenfei had no intention of trifling with it just yet. With his current strength, he was no match for the Phoenix Essence, so for the ti being, he resolved to use the Pill Furnace as a normal furnace.
Setting aside the Pill Furnace, Ling Zhenfei's attention turned to the mysterious dagger. It was as smooth and translucent as jade, almost transparent, but it was definitely not jade—rather, it resembled the bone of so creature.
While it seed to be made of bone, Ling Zhenfei couldn't be certain. What kind of bone could possess the smoothness of jade, the tactile feel of jade, yet be incredibly hard, appearing blunt—yet extraordinarily sharp?
He gently drew the dagger across the iron leg of a table, and to his surprise, it left a scratch on the iron—an indication of the dagger's sharpness.
Ling Zhenfei gripped the dagger in his hand and injected a trace of Northern Spiritual Energy. To his astonishnt, he discovered that the unique dagger also had a special function.
The dagger could absorb Northern Spiritual Energy, concentrating the absorbed energy within itself. It seed to have a space specifically for storing Northern Spiritual Energy, endlessly deep no matter how much energy was put into it.
Amazed, Ling Zhenfei wondered why that was the case and what purpose the absorbed Northern Spiritual Energy served in the dagger, for once absorbed, it seed to disappear.
After pondering for a while, Ling Zhenfei suddenly jumped up excitedly. He realized the powerful potential of the dagger.
Since the dagger could absorb Northern Spiritual Energy, ordinary people might not appreciate its value, but to a cultivator like Ling Zhenfei, it was exceedingly precious—its strength beca more evident the more powerful the owner was.
The stronger the cultivator, the rarer it was for them to engage in physical combat. If they did fight, they used Northern Spiritual Energy attacks.
