If I can’t even kill a mere bear, how can I grow stronger?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Master has truly grown up. The old master can now rest in peace in the heavens!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Ma reassured him from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uncle Ma, with your vast knowledge, can you identify this spirit medicine?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Ma shook his head: “How would I recognize it? I’ve never encountered a living spirit medicine in my life.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Such things are usually found in the hands of immortals. If we offer it to one, the wealth and honor bestowed upon us would be inexhaustible for a lifetime.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yuan smiled without saying a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his heart, he scoffed at the idea of wealth and honor. Even if it were thousands of pounds of gold, what of it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This world was clearly not ordinary, without strength, so-called wealth and honor were empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With sufficient strength, wealth and honor would be within easy reach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, above the Body Forging Realm, there were other realms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If his guess was correct, breaking through the Body Forging Realm would lead to the existence of immortals, greatly increasing lifespan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under such circumstances, what does wealth amount to!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This path leads to immortality!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the history of his previous life, the word “immortality” led countless emperors into obsession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who in the world could escape the temptation of “immortality”?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Ma suddenly said, “Young Master, how did you know there was a spirit medicine here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Intuition!” Jiang Yuan, lost in thought, answered absently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, he came back to his senses and looked at the spirit plant before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Ma anxiously said, “Young Master, stop daydreaming! Quickly consume and refine this spirit plant, it will surely increase your strength significantly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yuan shook his head: “No rush!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, he bent over and plucked a leaf from the spirit plant placing it in his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Ma watched Jiang Yuan nervously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few moments passed and he noticed no changes in Jiang Yuan’s state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t help but ask, “Young Master, how do you feel? Do you feel anything?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yuan shook his head and closed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he slightly moved his lips and gently bit the surface of the green leaf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, a burst of cool juice gushed out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It spread from his tongue tip into his body, just as refreshing as a timely rain after a drought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cells in his body seemed enlivened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling the various changes within his body, Jiang Yuan was utterly astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recenty, his body seemed to be in a constant state of deficit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the medicinal power of the leaf, he noticed his body’s changes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon reflection, he found it reasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strength of his physical body was increasing every day and his Bone Marrow Cleansing progress was also growing on its own. But everything conserved energy – it couldn’t be created from nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The day his physical body strength got a leapfrogging promotion and he kept depleting his body without replenishing it, a deficit was obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily he realised early. If this continued, longer delay might even harm the roots of his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, he felt relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he swallowed the green leaf completely and opened his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leaf instantly transformed into a surge of pure energy in his stomach, which was immediately absorbed and refined by his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this surge of energy could barely patch up his body’s deficit, instead it fully awakened his dormant physical body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Jiang Yuan could clearly feel a starving signal from within his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Jiang Yuan return to his senses, Old Ma hastily asked, “Young Master, how do you feel? Is it poisonous?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yuan shook his head: “No poison. It’s a true spirit plant.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s great!” Old Ma’s eyes lit up, “Young Master, quickly refine it. A complete spirit plant, this is a huge opportunity!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1374,"2026-06-03T14:01:46.482Z",1,"novelbin.me","97fcbcf56ba26c7dc0f7e5b7f51fd5749357c8ce8cc0813f8fff7136213a3af9","longevity-starting-from-the-qi-tags-chapter-189","longevity-starting-from-the-qi-tags-chapter-188",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flongevity-starting-from-the-qi-tags-cover.jpg"]
