Chapter 40

As Ah Mao spoke, it took out a yellow medicinal plant that was emitting a dense fog. The moment it took it out, a fragrance filled the surroundings.

“A yellow medicinal plant, how strange.”

Jiang Tie took the medicinal plant. His eyes flickered. The medicinal plant in his hand was yellow but not because it lacked vitality.

He could feel the vigorous vitality of the medicinal plant. This was unusual for a plant that was about to age. That vitality was mixed with a great amount of energy, which was even denser than the spiritual fruit. It was on a higher level!

Even though Jiang Tie had not taken it yet, he had a premonition in his heart that this medicinal plant would be of great help to his future cultivation!

“Ah Mao, you’re not using it?”

He was very surprised. Such a medicinal plant would have a miraculous effect on any animal, but Ah Mao had given it to him just like that.

“Boss, you use it. As long as Boss’s strength increases and you snatch that rainforest over, there will be plenty of medicinal plants in the future.”

Actually, Ah Mao felt that its ability to conceal itself was already heaven-defying. If it advanced one step further, no one would ever notice it. This kind of feeling was too sullen.

“After we occupy the treasure land, the first medicinal plant will be rewarded to you. In addition, I’ll think of ways to help you cultivate your other abilities.”

Jiang Tie could see that Ah Mao was not very satisfied with its own abilities. It only had the means to conceal itself and escape. It did not have the ability to attack and protect itself at all.

“There’s one more thing. Regarding the treasure land of the tropical rainforest, you mustn’t tell any of the other animals, not even the White Tiger.”

Before he increased his strength, he could not alert the enemy to prevent other accidents from happening.

Jiang Tie was now trying to buy himself some time to increase his strength as soon as possible!

Ah Mao nodded half-understandingly.

Jiang Tie was worried, so he repeatedly reminded Ah Mao. Finally, he let Ah Mao return to the rainforest to secretly investigate more about the rainforest.

“This medicinal plant hasn’t been refined by the pill furnace yet, but the energy it contains is already so strong. It’ll be terrible if it’s successfully refined.”

After making sure that there were no animals around, he took out the pill furnace from his sea of consciousness and skillfully threw the medicinal plant into it.

The fire spread in an instant, filling the entire pill furnace. It was boiling and clamoring, and it was about to pounce out of the pill furnace.

“Eh, the refinement this time’s very intense.”

When the fire pounced, Jiang Tie hurriedly retreated to avoid being burned by the fire. The fire from the furnace was very powerful. If it was touched slightly, that piece of skin and flesh would instantly melt.

Because the flames were tightly wrapped around the medicinal plant, Jiang Tie could not see the situation inside clearly. Just as he was about to move forward, the flames instantly spread over, seemingly carrying a bit of spirituality.

“This is too strange. This has never happened before. What’s going on now?” Jiang Tie could not help but mutter to himself. The spirituality of the pill furnace had already been refined by the system, so there should not be any problems.

There was only one reason that could explain it, and that was the medicinal plant.

The medicinal plant itself had spirituality, and it would only appear like this when it was being refined.

Buzz Buzz Buzz Buzz.

There was actually a sizzling sound coming from within the pill furnace. For a moment, Jiang Tie saw that the flames had actually formed an indescribable picture. It was very much like a picture scroll, and it was filled with animals, plants, and so on.

“A picture created by the medicinal plants?”

Jiang Tie did not understand. If the medicinal plants had transformed into animals, he could still understand it. Instead, it was a picture scroll, which made him a little puzzled.

Time flew by, and the pill furnace finally stopped refining it. The flames gradually extinguished, revealing the appearance of the medicinal plant after the refining process.

Jiang Tie’s first reaction when he saw the medicinal plants was surprise followed by relief. He stretched out his paw and took the medicinal plant that had been refined into the shape of a pill.

The green medicinal pill rolled around in his palm, leaving behind a trail of warmth.

“No wonder that group of animals in the rainforest were willing to go against the Lion King for the treasure land. If it were me, I wouldn’t be willing to give away such a precious treasure land either.”

Jiang Tie sized up the medicinal plant that had been refined into the shape of a medicinal pill. He could not help but sigh.

He sat cross-legged and only slightly adjusted his breathing rate to slowly absorb the spiritual energy.

After a while, he swallowed the pill in one gulp.

“Eh?”

Jiang Tie was already prepared to be attacked by the pill, but after swallowing the pill for a while, there was nothing strange in his body.

All of this was incredible.

Just as he was in a daze, the pill was already dissolving. Green energy was constantly being emitted, which was even denser than the spiritual Qi in his body.

This process took 10 minutes before the medicinal pill was completely dissolved.

It was only now that he could feel the uniqueness of that energy. His body was nourished by this energy, and even the spiritual Qi was no exception.

Suddenly, in the next moment, an astonishing change occurred in his body.

Jiang Tie’s flesh, bones, meridians, and even his internal organs were all covered with a layer of green luster. It was not just a simple luster, but something new was born from it.

He saw with his own eyes that the green light merged into his body and the luster came out from within, making it even more mysterious.

“What exactly is this?”

Jiang Tie could not understand it because there was a lack of resistance to the integration of energy in his body. On the contrary, it was very welcoming, and it could not wait to absorb it.

He did not feel anything in his body, not even warmth. However, after absorbing all the energy, his whole body was full of energy and the trace of fatigue in his body was instantly swept away!

Jiang Tie’s eyes were full of confusion. During this process, he did not feel anything, nor did he see any strange phenomenon. Even a little bit of luster was hidden in his internal organs.

“Those very powerful medicinal plants and pills, after eating them for a long time, wouldn’t they produce multicolored light thousands of feet high?

“Why isn’t there any feeling at all after eating this special medicinal plant?”

Jiang Tie was a bit disappointed. Judging from the strange appearance of the pill furnace when he was refining the medicinal plant earlier, it should have been extraordinary.

After all, a medicinal plant with spirituality would not be that bad.

He did not believe it and forced out the spiritual Qi in his body. It was a faint green color and fused with a faint green light, but it was very weak.

If he was not standing under the sun, he would not have noticed this wisp of green light.

Just like last time, Jiang Tie circulated his spiritual Qi and touched the plants in front of him. Just like last time, the plants that were touched by the spiritual Qi were instantly destroyed.

“There’s no difference.”

He gave up completely

He withdrew his paw in frustration. A trace of spiritual Qi was still jumping on his fingertip, but he did not pay attention to it.

Jiang Tie sat down with his paw propped on the ground. It was an empty space. The plants on it had disappeared because of his previous practice, so he did not feel anything else.

He lowered his head and thought about the practice just now. He wondered why the medicinal plants did not play any role. It was too strange.

“Eh, why is it itchy?”

While Jiang Tie was thinking, he suddenly felt a little itch in his palm. He lowered his head and found that there were some tender shoots growing underneath his palm.

The barren land had just sprouted tender shoots!

He noticed the flashing green light and was puzzled. A thought flashed through his mind. He tried to make the green spiritual energy jump without any distracting thoughts. He touched the ground.

Sure enough!

Green sprouts appeared on the empty ground at a speed visible to the naked eye!

“What kind of ability is this?!”

Jiang Tie was overjoyed and kept staring at the green spiritual essence. He was surprised and excited at the same time. This ability was beyond his imagination..
