The Golden Silkworm Gu rolled over on the ground. "These ground ginseng are discarded like trash. Their inherent essence is almost depleted. Even if I don't eat them, they're useless to you."
"I don't believe a word you say!" Lin Fan rolled his eyes.
He then gathered a few Silver Heart Grass nearby and picked two Dragon Fruits from a tree not far away before leaving the Sumeru space.
He also summoned the broken pot from his dantian.
"You want to refine Silver Dragon Pills?" the Golden Silkworm Gu asked in surprise.
Lin Fan nodded. "You're so smart."
The Witchcraft sect's medicinal preparations were similar to ancient elixirs, only with different ingredients and refining methods.
Elixirs required a cauldron and refinement with true fire.
This could take anywhere from ten days to half a month, or even years to centuries.
Witchcraft preparations were much simpler, requiring only a pottery jar.
No true fire was needed; one simply heated the herbs and water in the clay pot.
Silver Dragon Pills were the most common type of Witchcraft preparation, used to improve the physique of ordinary people.
"Silver Heart Grass and Dragon Fruits are both valuable. You're actually using them to refine such trash pills. If that important figure knew, they'd probably spit blood in anger," the Golden Silkworm Gu said, drooling.
"Get lost!"
Lin Fan channeled his spiritual energy, his hands glowing with a faint purple light as he covered the broken pot.
The water inside immediately began to boil like hot water.
A faint medicinal fragrance permeated the mountain forest.
Under the bright moon and stars, wild beasts, drawn by the scent, approached.
Sensing the powerful aura emanating from Lin Fan, they reluctantly retreated.
Silver Heart Grass was a spiritual herb, containing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
While the quantity was not large and offered little benefit to cultivators, it was incredibly effective for ordinary people.
As for Dragon Fruits, they resembled longans in appearance and contained a small amount of spiritual energy. They were also considered low-grade medicinal ingredients.
Lin Fan had kept all the truly valuable items for his own cultivation and breakthroughs.
"Damn, it smells so good, I can't stand it!"
As the medicinal aroma grew stronger, the Golden Silkworm Gu's eyes widened with greed, wishing it could jump in and feast.
Lin Fan deemed it ready and removed his hands.
A golden pill poured out from the pot.
It was the size of a grape, emitting a faint golden glow.
"It's a shame. It's my first time refining a pill, and I only managed a semi-finished product."
Lin Fan felt a pang of regret.
The golden color of the Silver Dragon Pill was too faint, and it was mixed with impurities.
It looked mottled and unappealing.
The medicinal aroma was also much weaker than expected.
"I don't mind, give it to me!"
The Golden Silkworm Gu hopped forward to swallow it, but Lin Fan slapped it into the dirt.
"Get lost!"
Although this semi-finished product had flaws, it could still fetch a good price from wealthy individuals. How could he give it to the Gu so easily?
At this point, only a quarter of an hour remained until dawn.
Lin Fan put away the Silver Dragon Pill and sat on the ground to cultivate.
By dawn, the spiritual energy he had consumed was replenished.
Upon returning home, Xia Xue had already prepared breakfast.
Lin Fan ate a few bites and then created a group chat on his phone.
"Old Wang, why do I have a new group chat? You're in it too."
"Huh? Elder Luo seems to be in it as well."
"Don't talk, everyone who's seen Physician Lin is here."
"The group owner seems to be Physician Lin himself."
"Huh? Who is this old man practicing Tai Chi? He looks so sleazy."
"Holy crap! You better retract that, that's Elder Liu Qinghui!"
"...It's over, I accidentally pressed delete instead of retract."
The group chat had just been established, and the conversation was already lively.
Lin Fan took a photo of the Silver Dragon Pill and posted it in the group.
"One 'Mighty Pill' for sale, priced at one million."
The entire group erupted.
"One million? What kind of 'Mighty Pill' is this expensive? How many Liuwei Dihuang Pills could that buy!"
"This pill looks like a golden spotted dog, it's too ugly!"
"Physician Lin, what is this medicine? Can you explain it?"
These tycoons, with combined assets exceeding trillions, had completely lost their imposing demeanor and were chattering incessantly.
Lin Fan disliked typing and sent a voice message instead. "I'm not entirely sure of its specific effects, as it's an experimental product. However, I can guarantee it won't kill anyone."
"???"
Everyone's minds were filled with question marks. Selling an experimental product for a million?
Only Physician Lin in this world would dare to do such a thing.
"Old Wang, you've been complaining about your back pain lately, can't satisfy your tiger wife? Why don't you buy it and try it?"
"Forget it, Old Zhang, you take it. After all, you have so many internet celebrity models in your company, you need it more."
"Who has a young model? Send her to Villa No. 2, Jinhu Island. Her looks are secondary, but her voice needs to be pleasant!"
"Okay, Elder Liu."
In the end, the Silver Dragon Pill was purchased by Liu Qinghui.
Mainly because he was not short of money, and when he spoke, others dared not compete.
Lin Fan didn't care who bought it, as long as the one million arrived.
"Physician Lin, I'll come to see you tomorrow to get my medicine."
Liu Qinghui posted a photo of himself practicing Tai Chi and then left.
Lin Fan did not linger to chat with the others, as he had important matters to attend to.
Today was the last day of Luo Qiqi's medicinal bath.
The toxins in her body had been mostly cleared.
This last session was primarily for insurance and to inject her with antibodies.
Lin Fan could confidently guarantee that once she had antibodies, she would be immune to all poisons in the mortal world.
Xiao Fan Medical Clinic.
Luo Qiqi obediently stripped naked and sat quietly in the wooden tub.
The tub was filled with a large pile of medicinal herbs sprinkled by Chu Zi according to the prescription.
Rose petals covered the surface of the tub.
This was Luo Qiqi's way of preventing Lin Fan from peeking, a method she had come up with.
"Is it that serious?"
Lin Fan felt a dull ache, this girl always covered herself so thoroughly that he couldn't take advantage of her.
"Preventing fire, preventing theft, preventing Lin Fan. One cannot be careless about such matters!"
Seeing Lin Fan's displeased expression, Luo Qiqi smiled happily.
She released faint purple spiritual energy from her palm, and the water in the tub began to churn.
Lin Fan's control over spiritual energy had reached a masterful level, so unlike the first time, he didn't scald Luo Qiqi to the point of jumping out of the tub.
But today was the final medicinal bath.
Half an hour later, the treatment was completely finished.
The toxins in Luo Qiqi's body were all cleared, and she had developed an immunity to all poisons.
Lin Fan, however, chuckled. "Qiqi, the final step is crucial. I need to enter the tub as well to completely cure you."
"You pervert! You're not trying to take advantage of me during this opportunity, are you?" Luo Qiqi asked, half-believing.
Lin Fan gave an awkward smile. "Do I look like that kind of person?"
Without hesitation, Luo Qiqi shook her head. "No, because you already are!"
She crossed her arms resolutely. "I'd rather be poisoned to death than stay in the same tub with you!"
