149: Chapter 149 The Inheritance of the Path of Medicine

On the west side of the courtyard stood a semi-dried stone well.

The stone well was surrounded by countless poisonous plants and thorns, concealing it completely.

If not for the probing of Divine Thought, it would have been impossible to discover easily.

With a thought, Lin Feng quickly took out the spirit-slaying sword!

With a few slashes, he hacked the surrounding poisonous plants and thorns into pieces!

Then he leaped forward and arrived in front of the stone well.

The mouth of the well was covered in thick moss, and very little water remained inside.

Lin Feng lowered his head and looked into the stone well!

At a single glance, he couldn't help but shudder and gasp!

Waves of extremely pure Spiritual Qi rose from the bottom of the well; inhaling it into his lungs gave him an incomparably comfortable feeling!

Even the energy within his body grew slightly stronger.

“Is this stone well actually filled with Spirit Spring Water?” Lin Feng was ecstatic.

With a stir of his Divine Thought, he quickly probed toward the bottom of the well!

Upon investigation, he finally discovered the truth.

It turned out that at the bottom of this stone well, there existed a natural underground Spiritual Vein!

However, with the passage of time, the Spiritual Vein was now nearing exhaustion!

The Spiritual Qi contained within the Spiritual Vein had been entirely absorbed by the well water!

Thus, ordinary well water had transformed into Spirit Spring Water.

Swish...

Without hesitation, Lin Feng leaped and jumped into the stone well!

The Spirit Spring Water inside could not be wasted!

This was a resource for his future Cultivation and advancement.

Soon, Lin Feng's feet landed steadily on a protrusion inside the well.

Standing here, he could lean over and collect the Spirit Spring Water from the bottom.

With a thought, Lin Feng quickly took out several large Jade Vessels from his Storage Pouch.

Whoosh...

Lin Feng aimed a Jade Vessel at the Spirit Spring Water below, then waved his sleeve as if sweeping away clouds!

The Spirit Spring Water at the bottom immediately transformed into several water Dragons and merged into the Jade Vessels.

After filling several large Jade Vessels, he finally finished collecting all the Spirit Spring Water.

Lin Feng was just about to leave the Dry Well!

But at that moment, from the corner of his eye, he suddenly glimpsed a broken stone tablet.

The greater part of that stone tablet was buried in the mud at the bottom of the well!

A small portion was still exposed.

Countless strange runes were carved upon the stone tablet, emitting waves of a peculiar Dao charm.

Lin Feng quickly jumped down and landed gently beside the stone tablet.

Then, grabbing the stone tablet with both hands, he pulled it upward with great force.

Rumble...

The ground shook violently as the entire stone tablet was uprooted by Lin Feng!

As Lin Feng's gaze fell upon the damaged part of the stone tablet, his pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly!

From that damaged position, half a volume of a yellowed, ancient scroll was revealed.

The material of the scroll was very special, neither silk nor paper.

Lin Feng wasn't sure what material it was made of.

But he knew that this ancient scroll must be extraordinary!

Because despite the passage of countless years, this scroll still didn't have the slightest scent of decay.

On the contrary, it even emitted waves of a peculiar medicinal fragrance.

Lin Feng directly pried open the stone tablet and took out the ancient scroll inside.

The scroll felt warm in his hand. Opening the first page, four ancient seal characters quickly caught his eye—"ancient medicine classic."

“Hiss!” Seeing this, Lin Feng couldn't help but shudder and gasp, unable to stop himself from crying out in shock, “It’s actually an Alchemic Dao classic left behind from the ancient era?”

Swish!

Just as Lin Feng opened his mouth in shock!

The void ripples distorted.

A faint white light suddenly shot out from the "ancient medicine classic" in his hand!

Finally, it transformed into a semi-illusory small figure!

That small figure had white hair and a kind face.

He had the appearance of an immortal sage!

“Who are you?” Lin Feng's gaze narrowed as he stared intently at the white-haired figure.

“Hoho, fated one, do not be afraid. I am but a wisp of a remnant soul. I have no offensive power and cannot harm you!” the white-haired figure replied with a smile.

Seeing that Lin Feng did not speak, the white-haired figure continued, “I am the third-generation Old Ancestor of the Ji Family, Ancestor Ji Yao!

This "ancient medicine classic" was personally authored by me in years past!

I left it here to wait for a fated person.

Unfortunately, after countless years, still no one has entered!

You are the first.

And this remnant soul of mine has remained for too long; it is already about to dissipate into nothingness.

Therefore, I wish to pass all of my Legacy of the Alchemic Dao to you!

I wonder if you are willing to accept my Legacy?”

“I am willing!” Lin Feng replied without hesitation.

Needless to say, this remnant soul was left here by the Ji Family's third-generation Old Ancestor, Ancestor Ji Yao!

The purpose was to wait for a descendant of the Ji Family to arrive and inherit his mantle.

Unfortunately, for so many years, no one had been able to find it.

Lin Feng had stumbled into this place by sheer accident.

It had allowed him to score a huge bargain.

Only a fool would be unwilling!

“Very well, open your mind and accept my Legacy!”

As the voice fell, the white-haired figure once again ducked into the "ancient medicine classic" in Lin Feng's hand and disappeared!

Immediately afterward, the "ancient medicine classic" trembled slightly!

It transformed into a dazzling white light and shot into Lin Feng's glabella like lightning!

It was like a divine empowerment!

With a boom!

Countless unfamiliar memories and information suddenly appeared in Lin Feng's mind.

This information was all knowledge regarding the Alchemic Dao.

It was vast, complex, and all-encompassing!

Things like identifying Spiritual Plants, the basics of medicine refining, the cultivation of spiritual soil...

Insights and understandings of Alchemy...

Innumerable profound realizations instantly filled Lin Feng's entire Sea of Consciousness.

“Ah!” Lin Feng couldn't help but clutch his head and let out a sharp scream!

Because the amount of information was too large, it all flooded into his mind at once!

It almost caused his Sea of Consciousness to explode!

Lin Feng quickly sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes!

Holding his breath and concentrating, he began to slowly organize and absorb that massive and boundless memory information.

Time passed quietly!

In the blink of an eye, the time it takes for an incense stick to burn had passed!

Phew...

At that moment, Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes.

A sharp light burst from within them, filled with auspicious colors.

Through this period of organization and absorption,

he had finally mastered the "ancient medicine classic" obtained from the Legacy.

Current him, in terms of Alchemic Dao knowledge, could definitely be called an ancient powerhouse!

Furthermore, he had also mastered countless Alchemy experiences and techniques.

It was just that he lacked the opportunity to practice them.

“Junior, I have already passed all of my Legacy to you.

I can be considered half a master to you!

I hope that in the future, you can carry forward the Alchemic Dao and not tarnish your master's reputation!

Your master's remnant soul is about to vanish, so I shall depart now!”

Ancestor Ji Yao's voice echoed directly in Lin Feng's mind.

After these words were spoken, there was no longer any sound.

Lin Feng understood that his remnant soul had completely perished!

“Thank you, Master!” Lin Feng cupped his hands and bowed respectfully toward the Void Realm, saying, “Rest assured, in the future, I will definitely carry forward the Medicinal Pills you left behind!”

On the continent, the status of an Alchemist was incomparably lofty!

Current Lin Feng, although not yet a true Alchemist,

could rely on his deep Alchemic Dao knowledge and the Alchemy experience inherited from Ancestor Ji Yao.

As long as he began Alchemy in the future, he could quickly become a high-level Alchemist.

What he lacked now was merely practice.

Having done all this, Lin Feng's Divine Thought stirred, and he began to probe the bottom of the well again!

He wanted to see if there were any other treasures!

The result was nothing.

It seemed that the greatest treasure at the bottom of this well was Ancestor Ji Yao's Legacy!

Additionally, that Spirit Spring Water was also a great harvest.

Lin Feng leaped and quickly left the stone well.

He landed steadily in the courtyard outside!

Clatter...

At that moment, a large group of people rushed in aggressively!

“Damn it, you shameless little thief, I finally caught you!”

“You bastard who eats alone, you deserve to die!”
