Chapter 140: Thanks to Ye Fan's Divine Medicine

"You actually went to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land again, and even picked the fruit…"

Fang Yu looked at the fruit before him. These few fruits gleamed with a golden radiance, each about the size of a longan, crystalline and translucent, as if cast from gold — truly extraordinary.

Before he even placed it in his mouth, Fang Yu felt a sudden clarity and refreshment, as if a fragrance were rushing into his five viscera and six bowels to reshape his physical body.

"Yes, we went to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land again."

Pang Bo's face showed a touch of emotion. "After Brother Fang gave us the Dao Scripture, we understood the path of cultivation that lay ahead. But reaching the Life Spring Realm is hardly easy — without resources, how could we cultivate? And Ye Fan especially needs far more resources than the rest of us."

"The two of us discussed it and decided to go to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land once more. We had already eaten the divine medicines of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land and drunk from its divine spring, so we figured we could withstand its curse."

Ye Fan picked up where Pang Bo left off. "Along the way we did see quite a few fierce birds and beasts, but we advanced carefully and finally reached the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land. That terrifying curse power aged us, but before we died of old age we managed to pluck the divine medicines and gather a good amount of the divine spring."

Ye Fan and Pang Bo exchanged a glance; both could feel how heart-stopping it had been.

Even now, recalling it, they were still shaken — it had been utterly terrifying.

Fortunately, they ultimately succeeded, and they had all stepped into the Life Spring Realm.

"Brother Fang's great kindness and virtue, we keep engraved in our hearts. Without that complete Dao Scripture, we wouldn't have known how to cultivate at all. And comparing it with the version from the Spiritual Ruins Grotto-Heaven, we discovered that the Dao Scripture they taught had some errors."

As Ye Fan spoke, he handed over three divine medicines. "These are the divine medicines we harvested this time — we're giving them to Brother Fang. If they can help Brother Fang's strength advance further, we'd be very glad."

"In that case, I won't refuse such kindness."

Fang Yu didn't hesitate. With a wave of his hand, he drew the three divine medicines over.

He felt a touch of emotion.

Ye Fan was indeed Ye Fan — to actually enter the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land again and pluck the divine medicines. Anyone else would long since have been beaten to death by the Desolate Slaves.

A place like the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land — if everyone thought they could just stroll in whenever they pleased, they'd die beyond any hope of death.

After all, it was the domain of a Great Emperor. So long as that Great Emperor was unwilling, even a Quasi-Emperor would perish.

She was no Green Emperor, letting things slide so easily.

Amid these thoughts, Fang Yu swallowed one of the golden fruits. An instant feeling of exquisite delight washed over him — the sweet pulp transformed into an incomparably powerful golden energy that surged through every part of his body, and at once a golden sheen flickered across his skin.

Fang Yu felt his physical strength rapidly increasing. Within his body, the essence of life boiled, rolling like great waves, surging and billowing. His five viscera and six bowels radiated with divine light, flawless and untainted, and his bones shone resplendently.

His skin too flowed with radiant light, dazzling beyond compare — it no longer looked like flesh and blood, but rather like a deity devoutly worshipped by mortals.

With just one divine medicine swallowed, Fang Yu felt his physical strength increase by dozens of Xuanhuang Stallions of force.

This was the body's own strength, different from magic power.

At this moment, as the first golden fruit was swallowed into his belly, his own strength surged rapidly.

And when Fang Yu swallowed the second divine fruit as well, the same transformation occurred within his body — and at the same time, Fang Yu felt his spiritual power continuously being born.

That's right — this divine fruit also contained another effect: it increased spiritual power and enhanced a cultivator's spiritual sense.

More precisely, the forging effect of this divine medicine was to increase spiritual power and enhance divine thought.

Originally his spiritual sense could cover a radius of several dozen li, but after devouring this divine medicine, his divine thought could cover a radius of a hundred li.

Every blade of grass, every leaf, every ant — he could perceive them all with perfect clarity.

"My magic power has risen again — I really must thank you."

Fang Yu opened his eyes and looked toward Ye Fan and Pang Bo, and saw that between the brows of these two youths there seemed to be a small golden lake — the change that had occurred in them after they devoured this divine medicine.

Upon the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land there are nine kinds of divine medicines in total. Each kind has entirely different effects; the only common thread is that they can revive the dead, regrow flesh on bone, nourish the physical shell, temper the body, and transform one's very constitution.
