Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 875: Chapter 875: The Grade of Spiritual Medicine

”A first-grade Spiritual Medicine? Could it be...”

Ye Luo’s Clairvoyant Eye once again swept over the herb with three leaves.

”Sir, what’s wrong?”

Ning Lu, seeing Ye Luo somewhat lost in thought, couldn’t help but ask.

”Miss Ning, do you have a three-leafed, all-golden herb here?”

Ye Luo hastily asked.

”Eh, how do you know? My family indeed has such an herb, which my grandfather dug up on a mountain before, initially planning to sell it!”

Ning Lu said as she walked to a cabinet, opened it, took out a wooden box, opened the box, and a rich Spiritual Energy released, making one feel refreshed and clear-headed.

This herb was golden all over, with three leaves, and emitted a rich energy aura, clearly not a common medicine.

”It’s actually a first-grade Spiritual Medicine, the Three-Leafed Golden Lotus! I didn’t expect such a world could still give birth to a first-grade Spiritual Medicine!”

Ao Long said with some admiration.

”Senior Ao Long, what is this first-grade Spiritual Medicine?”

Ye Luo asked with some curiosity in his heart.

”Actually, those precious medicines containing Spiritual Energy in your world cannot be called true Spiritual Medicines, as a real Spiritual Medicine needs at least a few thousand years to mature.”

”In the Martial Realm, Spiritual Medicines are ranked from first grade to ninth grade, with first grade being the lowest and ninth grade the highest. Above that, there are even more powerful medicines, but those can no longer be called Spiritual Medicines; they are divine elixirs that can defy fate and change destiny.”

”Even a ninth-grade Spiritual Medicine has not appeared in the Martial Realm for a very, very long time. The appearance of one would definitely lead to great chaos in the Martial Realm. Moreover, these graded Spiritual Medicines are not just important resources for Martial Artists to cultivate and enhance their strength, but also materials for Alchemists to create powerful Elixirs.”

”As for the Three-Leafed Golden Lotus, it is a first-grade Spiritual Medicine, but even a first-grade requires at least five thousand years to be born, containing the essence of heaven and earth. As long as one consumes it, it can rapidly increase a person’s strength.”

”If a person at the first layer of the Saint Realm were to consume this first-grade Spiritual Medicine, they could immediately become a master of the Hua Yuan Realm, or even more powerful!”

Ao Long said calmly.

”Really?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Luo’s face was filled with excitement, his eyes fiercely fixed on the Spiritual Medicine.

”Of course, that’s for others. For you, it’s naturally impossible to have such an effect, but it can still raise your power by one or two realms,”

Ao Long added, which cooled Ye Luo’s enthusiasm by half.

”Why?”

Ye Luo asked incredulously. Others could advance a major realm upon consumption, but he could only advance one or two minor realms—the gap was just too big.

”You are now a Nine Yang Sacred Body, and the energy required to advance one realm is at least dozens of times more than what others need to advance one realm. That’s also why your Nine Yang Energy is so powerful. So, this first-grade Spiritual Medicine could at most help you enhance your strength by two realms.”

Ao Long explained.

Hearing Ao Long’s words, Ye Luo, recalling what Xiao Ling had said, felt quite helpless. It seemed that improving his strength was not going to be easy.

However, being able to advance two realms was still a good thing. Ye Luo’s gaze turned to Ning Lu and said, ”Miss Ning, could you sell me this herb? Name your price.”

”Young man, you saved my life; consider this herb a gift from me to you, as a token of my gratitude for saving my life,”

The old man said to Ye Luo.

”That’s right, you saved my grandfather. If you need this medicine, just take it,”

Ning Lu spoke.

”No, I must give you money!”

Ye Luo shook his head. He was well aware of the preciousness of the Three-Leaf Golden Lotus. If sold, it would fetch at least a few million, if not tens to hundreds of millions. Taking it for free didn’t sit right with him.

”If you insist on paying, it’s like you’re looking down on us, grandfather and grandson. In that case, we won’t offer you the medicinal herb!”

The old master said earnestly.

Seeing Ning Lu’s grandfather say so, Ye Luo did not persist. However, he pretended to reach into his pocket but actually took out an elixir from the Lingyun Ring and handed it to the old man.

”Old master, take this elixir. It can eradicate all the diseases in your body and ensure you live a long and healthy life!”

Ye Luo said, looking at the old man.

”This... this is too precious!”

The old master’s expression was one of shock, and he quickly spoke up. Having seen Ye Luo save him in just a few moments, the old master could tell that Ye Luo was no ordinary man, and what he had offered must be genuine.

”Yes, it’s too valuable,” Ning Lu also chimed in anxiously.

”This elixir is nothing compared to that medicinal herb. Please accept it!”

Ye Luo said with a smile.

”Alright then!” said the old master, nodding and accepting the elixir.

”By the way, sir, I haven’t had the pleasure of learning your name. I’m Ning Lu!”

At that moment, Ning Lu extended her hand towards Ye Luo.

”My name is Ye Luo!”

Ye Luo replied, reaching out his hand to grasp her small, soft, and smooth hand, which felt slightly slippery—a sign of good hands.

Ning Lu’s cheeks flushed slightly red; this was her first physical contact with a man other than her grandfather.

”Old master, do you have another room here? I’d like to stay for one night,” Ye Luo suddenly said. The reason he wanted to stay was, first, to quickly absorb the energy from the spiritual medicine and make a breakthrough in strength. He was on his way to Snow Mountain, and should he encounter anyone from Snow Palace, it would be troublesome. Any increase in strength was valuable.

Secondly, it was to protect Ning Lu and her family. Even though he didn’t know much about the Qian Family, he was sure they wouldn’t let the matter rest. Once he left, they would definitely come for them, putting Ning Lu and her grandfather in danger.

Naturally, Ye Luo couldn’t just walk away. He planned to stay and wait for the Qian Family’s arrival to deal with them thoroughly.

”We have a room, but are you sure you don’t want to leave, Xiao Ye? Once the Qian Family comes after you, you’ll be in danger. I’ve heard that the Qian Family has many exceptional masters with immense strength. You should leave Heijiang City as soon as possible!”

Old Master Ning looked at Ye Luo and couldn’t help but say.

Ye Luo smiled at the two of them, ”If I leave, would the Qian Family spare you?”

Hearing Ye Luo’s words, Ning Lu and Old Master Ning fell silent. They knew full well the methods of the Qian Family. With Qian Lei injured because of Ning Lu, neither he nor the Qian Family itself would let them go.

”But...” Ning Lu wanted to say something but was interrupted by Ye Luo.

”Having helped you once, I must see it through to the end. I’ve injured that fellow, and leaving now would put you both in jeopardy. So, I’ll stay for the time being until I’ve completely dealt with the Qian Family. Then, I will leave.”

Ye Luo said calmly.
