At the next moment, a fierce tiger suddenly attacked from behind Li Xiaofeng; it lunged forward with its sharp claws and gaping maw, aiming for Li Xiaofeng's neck.

Seeing this, Li Dafeng immediately raised his fist and charged forward with force.

At the same time, another fierce tiger rushed toward Lin Yanping from behind her.

Sitting across from Lin Yanping, Lin Yifan instantly pulled out a handgun, aimed at the tiger behind Lin Yanping, and then squeezed the trigger, firing a swift shot.

"Bang!"

The bullet flew out of the muzzle at high speed, headed straight for the head of the oncoming tiger.

"Shhh!"

The next second, the bullet pierced the tiger's brain, ending its life.

On the other side, Li Dafeng also took down that tiger with a single punch.

However, the situation was far from over; at the next moment, tigers from all directions lunged at them, clearly intending to corner the four of them into a deadly trap.

Faced with this situation, Lin Yifan and the others had no choice but to draw their weapons and fight.

"Slash, slash, slash!"

"Bang, bang, bang!"

With every sword a strike, with every gun a kill, it didn't take long for Lin Yifan and his team to deal with the group of ferocious tigers.

"Damn it! Can't even rest for a bit without them seeking death, then I guess I'll have to kill you all," Li Xiaofeng spat out fiercely.

The situation just now was extremely dangerous; he hadn't even had time to deploy his cultivation power to protect his body. Had he actually been attacked, he would have been either dead or severely injured. Therefore, he was extremely angry.

"All right! The trouble is dealt with. Let's rest a bit, then continue on our way," Li Dafeng said.

Half an hour later, after their rest, they started on their journey again.

After two hours of searching, Lin Yifan finally made a new discovery.

He found a type of precious medicinal herb; this herb was an important ingredient for the refinement of Meridian-Clearing Pills; without it, the pills could not be produced.

It was rumored that this kind of herb only grew on cliffs and precipices, so to find it on flat ground was a complete surprise.

Since Li Dafeng and the others were not alchemists and had not conducted much research on medicinal herbs, they did not understand why Lin Yifan was so excited.

Thus, they asked, "Brother Lin! Why are you so excited? Did you find a treasure?"

"Of course!"

"Where?" Li Dafeng and the others asked curiously.

"Right here!" Lin Yifan answered, pointing at the small grass in front of him that had leaves shaped like sickles amidst the flowers.

"A plant? What's so valuable about a plant?" Li Xiaofeng asked, puzzled.

"Brother Xiaofeng, this is where you're short-sighted despite your long hair; this is no ordinary grass, this is the Channeling Herb, capable of unblocking human meridians and also an important ingredient for the Meridian-Clearing Pills. As for how famous the Meridian-Clearing Pill is, I don't need to explain that, do I?" Lin Yifan answered.

Of course, every Cultivator has a certain understanding of the Meridian-Clearing Pill because it can help you make a qualitative leap on the path of cultivation.

However, not every Cultivator can enjoy such a miraculous Elixir. The reason lies in the scarcity of its composite medicinal herbs; even if an Alchemist wanted to refine them in large quantities, they would be helpless.

For novice Cultivators, the Meridian-Clearing Pill is incredibly beneficial, but beyond the Breaking Mortal Realm, it's not very useful. At that point, a Cultivator's meridians are already mature and don't need clearing anymore.

It's like a person's height; once you reach a certain height, you can't grow any taller. But if you supplement growth during puberty, your height can increase rapidly. That's the advantage of the Meridian-Clearing Pill; it helps you rapidly improve your realm, staying ahead of your peers.

A Cultivator who reaches the Divinity Transformation Realm at thirty is not on the same level as one who does so at twenty. At least, people will regard the twenty-year-old as a young prodigy, while the thirty-year-old won't receive any special title.

Therefore, the Meridian-Clearing Pill is extremely precious; each major Sect reserves their Meridian-Clearing Pills for those young Cultivators who have exceptional perception and rapid cultivation progress.

The Sect that Li Dafeng and his companions belong to is a smaller one, and hence, they do not have the chance to enjoy Meridian-Clearing Pills.

Now, Li Dafeng and Lin Yanping have already reached the Divinity Transformation Realm, so the Meridian-Clearing Pills are useless to them, and Li Xiaofeng is only a step away from entering the Divinity Transformation Realm, so it isn't of much use to him either. Only Lin Yifan, a Breaking Mortal Fourth Realm Cultivator, might find it a bit useful.

Yet, the Cultivation Power within his body is not his own; swallowing the Meridian-Clearing Pills would actually be pointless for him. However, he could refine the pills and make a handsome profit or save them for his own people to use.

"So this is the Channeling Herb! What an eye-opener," Li Xiaofeng responded, "It's just a pity that it's of no use to me anymore."

"It may not be useful to you, but it's useful to me," Lin Yifan said with a smile plastered across his face, feeling very happy.

After stifling for so long, he had finally found something of value, making his mood exceptionally buoyant.

"Brother Lin, you can refine Meridian-Clearing Pills?" Li Xiaofeng was surprised once again.

Meridian-Clearing Pills are a high-grade Elixir, not something an average Alchemist can successfully refine. It requires either an Alchemist with an incredibly high talent in Alchemy or one with vast experience.

Considering Lin Yifan's young age, he doesn't look like an Alchemist with much experience; that leaves only one possibility—he must be a genius Alchemist with extremely high talent in Alchemy.

Having a genius Alchemist right by his side was truly a surprise to him.

"I am a disciple of Medicinal Saint Valley, of course I can refine it," Lin Yifan replied.

Truth be told, he hadn't actually refined it before and was unsure if he could succeed; he said this just to show off a bit.

This explanation was understandable; every disciple from Medicinal Saint Valley was known for their exceptional talent, a fact that was acknowledged across the entire Cultivation World.

"Can Brother Lin refine Marrow Cleansing Pills then?" Li Dafeng asked curiously.

He was in urgent need of Marrow Cleansing Pills, so he was very curious whether Lin Yifan could refine them.

Lin Yanping also wanted to know, as she too needed such a life-altering Elixir.

"That will depend on whether you have prepared all the necessary medicinal herbs for refining Marrow Cleansing Pills," Lin Yifan replied.

He felt he might have promised too much; feeling somewhat panicky with the attention on him, he remembered he was just an Alchemist with some achievements in Alchemy and not a prodigious genius.

His answer also cleverly avoided making a promise to Li Dafeng and Lin Yanping; Marrow Cleansing Pills, being of a higher grade than Meridian-Clearing Pills, required even rarer medicinal herbs. Thus, if they wanted him to help them refine Marrow Cleansing Pills, they would need to gather all the necessary herbs first.

This was almost an impossible task for an ordinary Cultivator, and he believed this would let him safely avoid trouble.

Lin Yifan's response left Li Dafeng and Lin Yanping feeling profoundly hopeless.
