Chapter 737: Chapter 737: Are There Any Pharmacists in the Hidden Sect World?

Mu Xiantian’s figure flew backwards, and while in mid-air, he felt blood surge violently in his chest followed by an uncontrollable spurt of fresh blood.

Not only had the True Essence Force that Mu Xiantian had just unleashed failed to cause any damage to Fang Bai, but he himself was sent flying backwards and injured as a result, something he had never anticipated before making his move.

After landing, Mu Xiantian’s figure swayed several times before he managed to steady himself.

"Sect Master!"

The four Elders behind Mu Xiantian hurried forward, intending to support him.

"I’m fine!"

Mu Xiantian waved his hand, feeling himself over, and found that he had sustained only minor injuries, not as severe as he had thought.

"Bold and insolent rogue, how dare you injure our Sect Master!"

One of the Elders from the Spirit Crane Sect, known for his fiery temper, saw the trace of blood at the corner of Mu Xiantian’s mouth and flew into a rage, turning to glare at Fang Bai with fury. His Essence Energy surged around him, his fighting spirit rising, readying himself as if to fight Fang Bai to the death.

"Elder Han, stop! Do not disrespect Senior Fang!"

Mu Xiantian had only exchanged a single move with Fang Bai, but this move had profoundly impressed him, making him realize that Fang Bai’s strength was far beyond his own. Seeing Elder Han about to recklessly challenge Fang Bai, he hurriedly called out to stop him.

To Elder Han’s surprise, the Sect Master referred to Fang Bai as "Senior Fang." Realizing that the Sect Master had good reason for addressing Fang Bai in such a manner, who was he to dare make a move? The Essence Energy around him rapidly dissipated, his fighting spirit vanished without a trace, and he stepped back sheepishly behind Mu Xiantian.

"Senior Fang’s strength is formidable, and I am far from your match! If there has been any offense to Senior Fang, I hope for your magnanimous forgiveness!"

Walking up to Fang Bai with a look of reverence, Mu Xiantian clasped his fists and bowed deeply.

Seeing the Sect Master paying such respects to such a young man as Fang Bai, disciples of the Spirit Crane Sect like Wu Caiyun, Zhao Yuhe, and others found it unbelievable and stood stunned, unable to recover their senses for a long time.

Knowing that he had won Mu Xiantian’s admiration by showcasing his strength, Fang Bai said with a smile, "My name is Fang Bai, just call me by my name! ’Senior’ is not necessary."

"How could that be?"

Mu Xiantian shook his head hastily, speaking seriously, "Within the Hidden Sect World, strength is revered. Your strength far exceeds that of my junior self, and you truly deserve the title ’Senior!’

Fang Bai, not wanting to bicker, said, "Call me whatever you like! Have you made a decision about the matter I mentioned just now?"

"Yes, yes!"

Mu Xiantian straightened up and spoke loud and clear, "This junior is willing to mobilize the full power of our sect to assist Senior in eradicating Ghost Doctor Valley!"

Fang Bai nodded and said, "Good, let’s go up the mountain first. I’ll treat your injuries, and then we can discuss the details of taking down Ghost Doctor Valley!"

Mu Xiantian replied, "It’s just a minor wound, I dare not bother Senior to take action!"

As he spoke, he took a jade bottle from his bosom, tipped out an elixir from it, and swallowed it.

Fang Bai’s gaze swept over the elixir that Mu Xiantian had tipped out, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly, revealing a smile of slight disdain, clearly unimpressed by the elixir.

In Fang Bai’s eyes, the elixir Mu Xiantian had taken was not worthy of being called an elixir at all, but was merely a mixture of spiritual medicines fashioned into a medicine pellet.

True elixirs require the manipulation of water and fire Primordial Qi to melt spiritual medicines into a medicinal liquid, from which the dregs are removed and the essence is extracted. They are then infused with corresponding Pill Techniques and refined into form, providing a substantial aid to the cultivation of martial artists.

However, the ability to freely manipulate water and fire Primordial Qi to refine elixirs is something most martial artists cannot achieve, and even Fang Bai at the present is not yet capable.

The "elixir" that Mu Xiantian had consumed, in Fang Bai’s previous life in the Cultivation World, wouldn’t even compare to the lowest grade of inferior elixirs and would not receive a glance from martial artists.

Yet for martial artists from the secular world or Hidden Sects, such an "elixir" is considered invaluable. Using it to treat his injuries, Mu Xiantian had more than enough.

"Are there any pharmacists in the Hidden Sect World?"

On the way up the mountain, Fang Bai casually inquired of Mu Xiantian, who was walking half a step behind him.

After asking the question, Fang Bai laughed at himself, feeling the question was somewhat superfluous.

Pharmacists are extremely rare in both the Cultivation World and the Immortal Realm, so how could there be any in the Hidden Sect World?

"Of course there are pharmacists!"

Mu Xiantian replied, "Elder Zhou himself is a pharmacist. The Healing Pills I just took were refined by Elder Sun."

Fang Bai was taken aback and looked over at Elder Zhou, whom Mu Xiantian had mentioned.

Elder Zhou, an Earth Level Perfection martial artist with white beard and eyebrows and a ruddy complexion, constantly smelled of medicinal herbs, which could attest to his frequent dealings with spiritual medicines.

Yet linking Elder Zhou with "pharmacist" left Fang Bai somewhat speechless.

On the path towards the peak of "Spirit Crane Peak," there were multiple medicine gardens of various sizes on either side of the mountain path, with some spiritual medicines planted within. However, the age of these medicines was generally around a hundred years, which did not catch Fang Bai’s attention.

At the summit of "Spirit Crane Peak," there stood several grand halls. The Sect Master Hall, where Mu Xiantian resided, faced south from the north. The Elders Hall, where several elders resided, was built on the west side.

To the east of the peak, where it welcomed the sunrise, lay a vast platform where the Sect Master and elders of the "Spirit Crane Sect" usually taught disciples martial arts techniques.

Fang Bai and Long Jingtian, accompanied by Mu Xiantian and four elders of the "Spirit Crane Sect," entered the Sect Master Hall in single file and took their seats. After several disciples served tea and left, the hall became quiet.

Wu Caiyun and Zhao Yuhe, both women who had made the acquaintance of Fang Bai and Long Jingtian and had brought them to the "Spirit Crane Sect," were also granted permission to enter the Sect Master Hall and listen in, an extremely honorable occasion for both of them, their hearts filled with excitement.

Once everyone was seated, they discussed the matter of eliminating Ghost Doctor Valley.

Mu Xiantian introduced some information about Ghost Doctor Valley to Fang Bai and Long Jingtian, as well as some sect forces that the "Spirit Crane Sect" could contact. Fang Bai and Long Jingtian nodded to each other after the briefing, believing there would be no issues in wiping out Ghost Doctor Valley.

Ghost Doctor Valley occupied "Myriad Medicines Mountain," which was rich in spiritual medicines. As for how to distribute those spiritual medicines after annihilating Ghost Doctor Valley, Fang Bai and others, including Mu Xiantian, decided to summon those contactable sect forces the next day to discuss further.

However, it was certain that Fang Bai would take the lion’s share.

Fang Bai was not too concerned about the spiritual medicines on "Myriad Medicines Mountain"; what interested him more was the possibility of Essence Stones being located inside the mountain.

After a long and secret discussion in the Sect Master Hall, Mu Xiantian dispatched several trusted disciples to visit the friendly sect forces, inviting them to come to "Spirit Crane Sect" the next day to discuss the campaign against Ghost Doctor Valley.

That afternoon, the two to three hundred disciples of the "Spirit Crane Sect" received the Sect Master’s command to start conserving their strength in preparation for heading to "Myriad Medicines Mountain" the next day to confront Ghost Doctor Valley.
