142: Ginseng Baby

The energy fluctuations on Chu Qinhui's body rose and fell. Whenever his energy reached its Peak, a dark gray Aura would always emerge around his body, suppressing his Aura back down again.

Seeing this, Chu Jingyu's expression was extremely dark. If he were fortunate enough to become Domain Rank in this lifetime, he would definitely seek revenge against those few in the Chu Family.

This entanglement of energies lasted for nearly an hour before the green specks of light hovering around the "Ginseng Baby" all returned into its body at a certain moment.

In a brief instant, the Aura around it soared, then slowly settled back into a stable state.

Chu Jingyu's eyes lit up; the "Ginseng Baby" had successfully achieved a Breakthrough.

In terms of appearance, the "Ginseng Baby" hadn't changed much, only growing from its original size of less than a palm to a height of about twenty centimeters.

Along with this, the vibrant green leaves on its head had increased by several, and the green leaves also formed a pair of little shorts worn around its waist.

It opened its eyes and first looked curiously at its own hands, then immediately cast its gaze onto Chu Qinhui. Finding that the energy fluctuations on Chu Qinhui's body remained unchanged, the little person's brow furrowed.

The "Ginseng Baby" rubbed its hands together, and green specks of light emerged in the air around it, then continued to multiply, following a point of its finger.

Those specks of light orderly approached Chu Qinhui, then surged into his body from all parts of him.

The influx of these green specks seemed to stimulate the Aura on Chu Qinhui. In just a moment, it broke through the shackles of the dark, gloomy energy, and his Aura surged fiercely.

A Different-rank Contract Master was born.

After a few more minutes, the energy on Chu Qinhui's body returned to stability. He opened his eyes, the sharp light slowly submerging into the depths of his pupils, and he said with a tone of relief:

"Finally, a Breakthrough."

Chu Jingyu clapped his hands and laughed, "Quickly, let the Ginseng Baby check your physical condition again."

Chu Qinhui nodded, looked at the "Ginseng Baby," and said with a smile, "Father, it should be called a Ginseng Doll now."

"Race: Ginseng Doll; Rank: Lower Stage of Exotic; Aptitude: Perfect; Status: Dissatisfied, excited for growth; Attribute Affinity: Medicine, Wood, Earth, Life; Skills: 1. Ginseng Medicine: The ginseng leaves on top of the Ginseng Doll's head can be used as medicine. Consuming them directly has excellent effects in repairing Qi and blood, enhancing Mental Energy, and maintaining vitality. 2. Wood Spirit Aura: The Ginseng Doll likes places with many plants. It can absorb Wood Spirit Aura to grow, and it can nourish the plants around it, accelerating their growth speed and lushness, with a probability of allowing them to break through the size limitations of their own species. 3. Earth Ginseng: When the Ginseng Doll touches Earth-attribute spiritual objects, it can hide itself within them and travel through Earth-attribute spiritual objects at an extremely fast speed. 4. Detoxification: The Ginseng Doll can detect stubborn poisons within a target's body and draw them out from the body, crafting them into poison pills that can cause the same effect. 5. Life Spirit Brilliance: The Ginseng Doll consumes a large amount of energy to condense light spots containing life energy. These light spots merge into the target's body, causing the target to temporarily return to their Peak physical state. Evolution Route: 1. Ginseng Doll → Millennium Spirit Ginseng (Follows natural growth, can be promoted upon breaking through rank) 2. Ginseng Doll → Embracing Ginseng Child (Consumes 1,000 Source Spirit Stone to unlock)"

"Oh? The race has changed? Good, good. Check first, then talk." Chu Jingyu responded casually, yet still urged the "Ginseng Doll" to check on Chu Qinhui.

The "Ginseng Doll" nimbly jumped onto Chu Qinhui's shoulder, placed its little hand on a spot slightly below his shoulder, and green radiance burst forth from its palm.

After a moment, many dark gray Auras became mixed into the green radiance.

During this time, Chu Qinhui gritted his teeth, and a few drops of cold sweat dripped from his forehead onto the gray stone floor.

After a few more minutes, a Medicinal Pill with black and gray patterns, about the size of a little finger, appeared in the "Ginseng Doll's" hand.

Chu Qinhui's face suddenly relaxed, as if a long-shrouded shackle had been removed. He let out a long sigh of relief. In these decades of his life, there had never been a moment like this where he felt the scenery of heaven and earth, and the freedom of all things.

The "Ginseng Doll" slapped Chu Qinhui's cheek in dissatisfaction, pulling him out of the state of spreading his arms to feel the freedom of heaven and earth.

Sensing something through the emotions transmitted by the "Ginseng Doll," he hurriedly took out a small porcelain bottle from his jade pendant and placed the poison pill, which had just been condensed and was still emitting a faint black Aura, inside.

Chu Jingyu was extremely anxious. Seeing this commotion, he couldn't help but ask, "How do you feel now? Has all the poison been removed?"

Chu Qinhui raised a relieved smile, "Don't worry, Father. The curse poison in my body has been completely resolved. All of the curse poison is inside this small Medicinal Pill."

As he spoke, Chu Qinhui shook the porcelain bottle in his hand toward his father. As the Medicinal Pill moved, a 'clinking' sound came from within the bottle.

Chu Jingyu's fingers, hidden under his sleeves, trembled slightly. He closed his eyes for a moment, then suddenly turned and walked toward the direction of the offering table.

He took out three sticks of incense, lit them, and bowed three times.

He hadn't spoken a word, yet it was as if everything had been said.

With surging emotions, Chu Jingyu seemed to have grown a few years younger.

... Early the next morning, Chu Shengfan went out and arrived at "Wanmin Pharmacy."

First, he treated Doctor Cheng, Pharmacy Curator Cheng Xun's son, Cheng Yu, and received a reward of twenty Source Spirit Stone.

Although Cheng Yu was still in a coma and had not yet woken up, both his complexion and the Aura lingering on his body were a few points stronger than yesterday.

This was enough to show that the treatment of the "Myriad Flower Butterfly Spirit" had obvious effects.

After the treatment was finished, Chu Shengfan went to the front hall to begin his first day of consultations.

Pharmacy Curator Cheng Xun had prepared very thoroughly; a brand-new consultation desk was already waiting for him.

Before starting to see patients, Chu Shengfan gave a heads-up in advance, "Physician Cheng, I only see patients with external injuries and mental damage. If it is poisoning or internal injuries, I may not be able to treat them."

Yesterday, Chu Shengfan had already mentioned what the "Myriad Flower Butterfly Spirit" was good at treating, so Pharmacy Curator Cheng Xun agreed, called over two guiding apprentices, whispered a few instructions, and sent them to the door to triage the patients.

The first guest Chu Shengfan saw was not a human, but a spirit cat about the length of an adult's forearm.

On its side, there was a long scar deep enough to see the bone. It could be seen that it had undergone some simple treatment before, and scattered medicinal powder could still be seen within the exposed red flesh.

The person who brought the spirit cat for consultation was a teenager of sixteen or seventeen. Judging solely by his attire, the boy was filthy all over and also had some minor lacerations on his body, as if he had just experienced a fierce battle and had only just arrived here.

The spirit cat's Realm was at Mortal Rank Upper Stage. Although the wound was terrifying, since it was merely an external injury, it was still very easy for the "Myriad Flower Butterfly Spirit" to heal.

However, in order to show his professionalism, Chu Shengfan asked, "What Source Beast injured it? What medicine has been used?"

The teenager then looked up at Chu Shengfan, discovering his overly young face, and surprise flashed in his eyes. However, saving the "Snow Shadow Cat" was more urgent, so he didn't think too much.

"It was injured by a Blade-Winged Dog. I've used Healing spirit liquid and Wound Spirit Powder, but the effect doesn't seem very good."

Chu Shengfan had never heard of the names of these two types of Spirit Medicine, so he nodded vaguely. The "Myriad Flower Butterfly Spirit" appeared beside him, then flew to the side of the "Snow Shadow Cat" and began to sprinkle medicinal powder to start the treatment.
