Ultimate Village Doctor

Chapter Two Hundred and Two

"The tournament is set for tomorrow night at the Kowloon Mountain Clubhouse."

"I understand!"

Long Xiaoshan nodded.

After eating with Wang Sihai for a while, Long Xiaoshan got up to take his leave.

Walking on the road, Long Xiaoshan pondered deeply.

Wang Sihai's words had raised his vigilance.

In prison, he had learned a lesson: if you don't remove the roots, the weeds will grow back with the spring breeze.

So even now, whether dealing with Zhao Jun or Wang Sihai, he kept control in his hands.

Therefore, Wei Zhentian posed a potential threat.

If he let Wei Zhentian unify Hechuan's business world after crippling his Dantian, would Wei really let him off?

Realizing this, Long Xiaoshan already had an idea. He went to the city to get his car and returned to the village overnight.

After returning to the farm, Long Xiaoshan went to the pharmacy.

Then, he took out the Hundred Ghosts Banner and called out. Boom! A cloud of black smoke billowed out, and a chilling presence spread, causing a sharp drop in temperature that would have frozen an ordinary person solid.

A ghost appeared.

It was Yue Ling.

Long Xiaoshan glanced at him and said, "Brother Yue, your strength has improved again." Experience exclusive tales on empire

Yue Ling replied with satisfaction, "I must thank you for your elixir pills; otherwise, my improvement wouldn't have been so rapid."

The Yin Yuan Pill that Long Xiaoshan had given him last time had been of great help.

It had more than doubled his strength compared to when he had first met Long Xiaoshan.

After some small talk, Long Xiaoshan began to inquire.

"Brother Yue, what level of strength does a person have if they can flatten a car with their bare hands?"

Know thyself, know thy enemy, and you shall win a hundred battles without loss.

Hence, Long Xiaoshan wanted to gauge Yu Cheng's approximate strength from Yue Ling.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

After hearing the question, Yue Ling pondered for a moment before saying, "Flattening a car with bare hands, that strength is probably at the Profound Level. Of course, there's also a possibility that the person's hand-to-hand combat skills are extremely formidable. So, even a Huang Level cultivation might be able to manage it, though it would definitely have to be in the Late Yellow Stage at the very least."

Profound Level, or Late Yellow Stage?

Long Xiaoshan nodded silently and then asked, "Brother Yue, in terms of my Martial Dao strength, how close am I to that level?"

"I need to see it to be sure, because you are a Spirit Practitioner, which is somewhat different from a Martial Artist," Yue Ling said.

Without wasting words, Long Xiaoshan stood up and started to demonstrate.

He brought out his full strength, and the sound of his fist cutting through the air soon filled the room, eventually accompanied by the faint sound of a wolf howling reverberating continuously.

Yue Ling watched, excitement gradually flickering in his ghostly eyes.

He had been cultivating in the Ghost Banner these days.

He hadn't paid attention to Long Xiaoshan's cultivation. But now, he realized that Long Xiaoshan's strength had improved so rapidly that he had even grasped the concept of Fist Intent.

Mysterious Rank Warriors, also known as Martial Dao Tongxuan Practitioners.

Only upon reaching Martial Dao Tongxuan can one comprehend the notion of intent.

Although Long Xiaoshan's physical strength had not reached the level of a Mysterious Rank Warrior, his understanding of intent, the understanding of reaching the Tongxuan stage, signified a complete and thorough comprehension.

Genius, no, even the term genius fails to describe him; he is a prodigy, a monster!

If previously Yue Ling had only engaged with Long Xiaoshan in mutual benefit, calling upon martial skills in exchange for Long Xiaoshan's elixir pills.

Now, he genuinely had taken a liking to Long Xiaoshan's talents.

After Long Xiaoshan finished his demonstration, Yue Ling said, "Xiaoshan, with your strength, aside from lacking in power, you can completely contend with a Mysterious Rank Warrior."

"So you mean winning against a Mysterious Rank Warrior is still difficult for me?" Long Xiaoshan realized after a moment.

"Indeed, your strength is lacking, Mysterious Rank Warrior. Having such a title means you are already a member of those who have entered the hall within the Ancient Martial World. Even among various sects, you would be a core member. Every Mysterious Rank Warrior has fought through countless life-and-death battles, it's not so simple. Of course, you also have other capabilities, Spirit Practitioner spells. Once you maintain some distance, even warriors find them troublesome. Plus, you have me. Although I no longer possess the Grandmaster strength I had in life, killing a Mysterious Rank Warrior is not difficult for me," Yue Ling said indifferently, her tone filled with sky-soaring pride.

She truly is a descendant of a great general.

Long Xiaoshan lowered his gaze slightly.

He was well aware of Yue Ling's formidability.

But he was even more aware that relying on others would only weaken him. His experience in prison, while cruel, had matured him. Only one's own strength was absolute.

He turned his head to look at the Hundred-Year-Old Medicine.

A faint smile appeared on his face.

What of Mysterious Rank Warriors?

He had the Jade Purifying Bottle, a miraculous treasure that could nurture old medicine and even Spiritual Medicine. Who else in this world could so nonchalantly consume Hundred-Year-Old Medicine like it was nothing?

Originally, he had planned to use the Hundred-Year-Old Medicine to concoct Lesser Qi Nurturing Pills.

But then it dawned on him.

Even without crafting Lesser Qi Nurturing Pills, these Hundred-Year-Old Medicines were precious cultivation resources in themselves.

Even though the effect wasn't as potent as that of the Lesser Qi Nurturing Pills, and taking them directly was wasteful, he wasn't lacking in medicinal ingredients at all. Besides, his current level of cultivation wasn't that profound—it was just at the Qi-Refining First Layer.

Using Hundred-Year-Old Medicine was enough for now.

Long Xiaoshan picked a stalk of Hundred-Year He Shou Wu.

He had Yue Ling protect him as he directly started ingesting the He Shou Wu.

The old medicine nurtured by the Spiritual Liquid was incredibly potent, equivalent to medicine that had matured for two hundred years on the market, and was exceptionally pure. After swallowing it, it felt like a flame rolling inside his abdomen.

Such potency was something ordinary individuals couldn't sustain.

An average person would boil and ingest it slowly. It might take several months for someone to fully consume a Hundred-Year He Shou Wu.

But Long Xiaoshan took only a few minutes.

To consume one stalk of Hundred-Year He Shou Wu.

The rolling potency made his abdomen bloat like a balloon, an intimidating sight, but Long Xiaoshan was not alarmed, instead, he felt delighted. With a low roar, he began circulating the Longevity Art cultivation technique.

Under the guidance of the Longevity Art, the raging potency struck furiously against Long Xiaoshan's meridians, bones, and flesh, cleansing his body. At the same time, a great amount of that potency transformed into True Qi, which was eagerly absorbed by his Dantian.

True Qi quickly filled Long Xiaoshan's Dantian. He progressed from the middle stage of the Qi-Refining First Layer to the late stage, charging towards the Qi-Refining Second Layer.

About half a Chinese hour later.

Boom!

It felt as if something within him broke, releasing a great amount of black impurities out of his body.

The Longevity Art, at each layer, had the function of Sinew-Transforming Marrow-Washing.

Under the powerful assault of the medicine from the Hundred-Year He Shou Wu,

Long Xiaoshan's cultivation advanced from the Qi-Refining First Layer to the Qi-Refining Second Layer.

By this time, only about half of the medicine's potency had been expended. The remaining potency continued to turn into True Qi, elevating Long Xiaoshan's cultivation to the middle stage of the Qi-Refining Second Layer before stopping.

He slowly opened his eyes.

His gaze was restrained.

Feeling the surging Longevity Art True Qi inside his body.

The middle stage of the Qi-Refining Second Layer was several times more powerful than the Qi-Refining First Layer.

What was even more potent was the body's Sinew-Transforming Marrow-Washing.

It made his bones, flesh, and meridians much stronger than before. This fundamental change in his body increased Long Xiaoshan's strength, speed, and reflexes across the board, even making his mind clearer.

"With my current strength, I should be able to contend with a Mysterious Rank Warrior."

Long Xiaoshan thought to himself.

However, this was still not enough.

How could Long Xiaoshan be content with just the Qi-Refining Second Layer? He picked another stalk of Hundred-Year-Old Medicine and placed it into his mouth…
