Chapter 6: Refining Dan Medicine

Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

Jiang Yuan had just sat down and hadn't even had a sip of tea yet.

Old Ma couldn't contain his impatience and asked, "Young Master, how did it go? What did the county lord say?"

After Jiang Yuan took a sip of tea.

"Don't worry, he agreed."

"That's great! That's great!"

Old Ma let out a sigh of relief, and his tense expression relaxed completely.

Then he lamented, "It's just a pity for the hard work of the Master over the years! After decades of hard work, it's like going back to the past in an instant."

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "This trip was not in vain. The county lord was generous and gave me a Viscera Refining Pill before leaving."

"What kind of pill?" Old Ma asked in surprise.

"Viscera Refining Pill."

After speaking, Jiang Yuan took out a jade bottle from his pocket.

In an instant, Old Ma and Gu Mo's eyes were instantly drawn to this small jade bottle.

"Viscera Refining Pill? Isn't it the rumored pill that has reached the highest grade?"

Old Ma was extremely shocked.

"That's right!" Jiang Yuan nodded slightly.

"Then Young Master, you should take it quickly. This kind of pill is worth a fortune. Even if there is a way to exchange it for something valuable, a Viscera Refining Pill would cost several thousand taels of silver at the very least."

Jiang Yuan calmly said, "No need to rush, there is something more important."

"What is it?"

Old Ma's face was filled with confusion.

"It's about Gu Mo!"

After speaking, Jiang Yuan said to Gu Mo who was standing aside, "Come here."

"Yes, Young Master!"

Gu Mo respectfully responded and came to Jiang Yuan's side.

Jiang Yuan leaned down and took Gu Mo's horse-cutting knife from his waist.

The two of them looked at Jiang Yuan with confusion.

Jiang Yuan held the horse-cutting knife in his hand and lightly flicked the blade with his finger.

Clang!

A crisp sound of vibration echoed.

"The knife is good, but unfortunately, it doesn't suit you."

Jiang Yuan said in a plain tone.

Then he exerted force with his wrist, and the horse-cutting knife shot out like a thunderbolt, instantly piercing into a weapon rack not far away.

"Young Master, what does this mean?"

Gu Mo was a little confused.

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Do you know what weapon you are truly good at?"

"A knife!"

Gu Mo said firmly.

Old Ma chimed in, "That's right! Gu Mo's knife is famous in Lin'an County. His talent in using a knife far surpasses ordinary people. Otherwise, how could he earn the title of a fast knife?"

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, "Uncle Ma's words are not wrong. Gu Mo does have some talent in knife skills. But his true talent lies in using a sword. His talent in swordsmanship is extraordinary, like a sword god in the world."

"Sword?"

Gu Mo's eyes flickered with a hint of emotion.

He couldn't help but recall his past.

In his childhood, he had a special love for wooden swords. With a slender tree branch in his hand, he could cut down oilseed rape flowers for miles.

He had a special fondness for swords, and that period of time was the happiest days of his life.

After his family encountered a great change, if it weren't for Jiang Yuan's assistance, he would have died on that stormy night.

To seek revenge, he officially embarked on the path of cultivation and diligently practiced his family's knife technique.

After a few years, he achieved some success, avenged his enemies, and settled his grievances.

Now, so many years have passed, and he hasn't touched a sword since then.

On one hand, it was because his family's Body Tempering secret technique was only effective when combined with knife techniques. Without the secret technique's tempering, his talent in swordsmanship would be nothing but an empty shell.

On the other hand, he found that his talent in knife skills was not bad. With the help of the family's Body Tempering secret technique, not only were his knife skills outstanding, but his cultivation speed was much faster than ordinary people.

With all these factors, he had never considered learning the sword.

But now, hearing Jiang Yuan's words, Gu Mo couldn't help but feel a little moved.

At this moment, Old Ma still had an unbelieving expression on his face.

"Young Master, your words are too exaggerated! A sword god in the world, what kind of evaluation is that? Does Gu Mo really have such talent? And how can you determine someone's talent at a glance?"

Jiang Yuan smiled and didn't explain anything.

He came to the weapon rack on the side and took down his heavy sword that he used for daily practice.

"Catch!"

Then he swung his right hand, and the heavy sword, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, shot towards Gu Mo.

Facing the thunderous heavy sword, Gu Mo's eyes remained calm.

He reached out and grabbed it, and the heavy sword, weighing thousands of catties, fell into his hand.

Gu Mo held the heavy sword, effortlessly waving it twice.

He felt as if he had merged with the sword in his hand.

Even though he hadn't used a sword for many years, at this moment, he didn't feel any unfamiliarity.

Instead, he felt an incredible familiarity, as if he were an expert who had used a sword for many years.

A feeling of harmony and unity emerged.

At this moment, the sword in his hand was like an extension of his body, easily controlled.

"But, Young Master, although Gu Mo has a sword now, he doesn't have the Body Tempering technique. How can he abandon the knife and cultivate the sword?" Old Ma said.

"Train him in our family's secret technique, the Wind and Thunder Sword Art," Jiang Yuan said in a calm tone.

"How can this be? This is our family's secret technique, how can we pass it on to an outsider!"

Old Ma's eyes widened instantly.

Jiang Yuan said lightly, "Why not? Now that only I am left in the Jiang family, as the head of the family, I have the final say on who the Wind and Thunder Sword Art is passed on to."

"Moreover, considering Gu Mo's actions over the years, he can hardly be considered an outsider."

After speaking, Jiang Yuan took out a slightly yellowed ancient book and handed it to Gu Mo.

"You can directly comprehend it here. With your current level, it should be easy to get started."

Gu Mo's expression changed instantly.

He stared at Jiang Yuan for a long time before nodding heavily.

Then he took the Body Tempering technique from Jiang Yuan's hand, focused his gaze, and instantly entered a state of concentration.

Seeing this, the two of them quietly left the place.

Outside the courtyard, Old Ma looked at Gu Mo, who was extremely focused in the distance.

His tone still filled with doubt, he said, "Young Master, is his talent in swordsmanship really as amazing as you say?"

"Only high, not low!" Jiang Yuan said in a calm tone.

After watching Gu Mo for a while, he turned and left.

At this moment, Old Ma muttered to himself.

"How is this possible? Could it be that the Young Master is a reincarnated immortal, able to see at a glance that Gu Mo's talent in swordsmanship is extraordinary?"

"I will wait here and see if Gu Mo is truly as talented as the Young Master claims, if he has the potential to become a Sword God!"

On the other side, Jiang Yuan returned to his residence.

He closed the door and sat cross-legged.

He took out the bottle of pills given to him by County Lord from his bag.

Then he opened the bottle and poured the pill into his palm.

In an instant, a strong medicinal fragrance filled the air.

Jiang Yuan felt that the qi and blood in his body seemed to become more active, slightly boiling.

There was a clear visible pattern on the Viscera Refining pill the size of a pigeon egg.

Jiang Yuan's heart was filled with joy.

The presence of the pattern indicated that this Viscera Refining pill was indeed of the highest quality.

It seems that I have a chance to break through, Jiang Yuan thought to himself.

Then he swallowed the pill in one gulp.

As soon as the pill entered his throat, it felt like a falling sun, emitting a scorching heat.

Until it fell into his stomach.

The majestic medicinal power instantly spread out in countless threads, merging into every organ in his body.

In an instant, Jiang Yuan's whole body turned red, emitting a red light.

It was an imaginary scene caused by the boiling of qi and blood in his body.

Such a strong medicinal power! It truly deserves to be a top-grade pill!

Feeling the various changes in his body, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Next moment.

He calmed his mind and quickly refined the medicinal power in his body.

As each strand of medicinal power was refined, Jiang Yuan felt that the beating of his heart became stronger and stronger.

Like a drum being struck, each beat stronger than the last.

A continuous stream of blood flowed from the heart chamber, flowing to every part of his body.

At this moment, his internal organs also became stronger.
