183: Collecting herbs

Leaving aside everything else, just the entry-level Rejuvenation Pill alone had an effect that would make any man's imagination run wild.

There were also various other pills like Detoxification Pills, Dust-Proof Pills, Body Strengthening Pills, Rejuvenation Pills, Little Return Pills, and so on; any one of them, any single pill, would be worth a fortune.

Higher-grade pills included Marrow Cleansing Pills, Foundation Establishment Pills, and Spirit Restoring Pills, all with astonishing effects.

Any one of them could transform an ordinary person, turning them into a terrestrial immortal!

High-grade pills had extremely strict requirements for medicinal ingredients, needing spiritual energy for cultivation, and also had stringent demands on the cultivator's skill and technique.

However, entry-level pills were relatively much simpler.

As long as the ingredients were complete and the pill refining technique was proficient, they could be successfully refined.

And the cost was not high.

Su Can thought that after he had finished developing Qixia Mountain, he would open up a medicinal field specifically for refining pills.

He even considered feeding the pills to his pets like Dahuang, Tiger Da, and the monkeys.

“The formula for this Body Strengthening Pill is simple, and the required herbs are relatively common, so I’ll start with this one,” he mused.

“However, the pill refining techniques and various incantations in the Xuan Qing Pill Scripture are all performed and controlled with true qi, so if I use mental power, there might be some discrepancies.”

“It seems I need to cultivate true qi first. This Yuhua Flying Ascension Sutra happens to be a powerful and domineering cultivation method, so I should try practicing it!”

“Anyway, with my current physical foundation and ability to absorb the essence of the sun and moon, with all these advantages, my progress will surely be rapid, and I’ll quickly cultivate true qi!”

Once he cultivated true qi, Su Can would be able to start refining the Body Strengthening Pill.

Thinking of this, Su Can put away the pill scripture scroll, memorized the herbs needed for various basic pills, and directly released his divine sense, activating his 'God's-eye view'.

He planned to gather as many medicinal ingredients as possible along the way, like a wild goose plucking feathers, and then, during his rest, he would begin cultivating the Yuhua Flying Ascension Sutra and attempt to refine the Body Strengthening Pill.

With his divine sense and 'God's-eye view' activated, Su Can was practically cheating; nothing within a radius of seventy to eighty meters could escape his sight.

Even objects ten meters underground could not evade his powerful divine sense scan.

“Tendons-Connecting Grass! One of the main ingredients for refining the Body Strengthening Pill!”

Not long after, Su Can's face lit up with joy as he discovered the medicinal herb he needed.

He quickly walked over, drew his xiuchun blade, and dug up the Tendons-Connecting Grass.

Not far from the Tendons-Connecting Grass, there was also a patch of fresh oyster mushrooms.

While no one was paying attention, Su Can took out a large bag from his Jade Cicada Space and picked all the mushrooms, putting them into the bag.

These oyster mushrooms were very fresh and large. When they rested later, they would be perfect as food to fill their stomachs.

Whether they were used for continued grilling or making soup, they were rare and delicious ingredients.

The key was their pure, natural, original mountain flavor, which was much better than cultivated mushrooms.

“Oh? There’s wild yam nearby too, excellent, excellent~!”

Su Can felt that this area was simply a treasure trove; not only did it have the medicinal herb Tendons-Connecting Grass and mushrooms, but wild yam was also growing underground.

wild yam was a good thing.

The two roots he had dug up before, Liu Qianqian had offered him two thousand yuan per root.

“Great! When we rest next time, this wild yam will be perfect for grilling. Not only is it super nutritious, but it’s also very filling!”

Su Can's eyes lit up with surprise as he saw a wild yam buried in the soil not far from his feet.

However, his continuous actions could not be hidden from everyone.

Wei Dandan watched him running around, constantly leaving the group, and couldn't help but frown, saying:

“What’s wrong with Su Can? The most taboo thing during a mountain expedition is to leave the team without permission and act independently. He, on the other hand, has no awareness of this at all.”

“Exactly, if he acts like this and something happens, won’t he just drag everyone down?”

“Zhao Hao, can’t you restrain him? What kind of behavior is this?”

Zhang Chao naturally stood by his girlfriend and loudly voiced his opinion.

With such an undisguised shout, Zhao Hao could no longer pretend not to hear. He could only sigh, stop walking, and turn around.
