If they could have prepared everything, they would have done so already.

However, Lin Yifan's response gave them a glimmer of hope; as long as they could prepare all the ingredients for the Marrow Cleansing Pills, they could have the pills. This was far more cost-effective than buying a single Marrow Cleansing Pill for a large sum of money.

So they asked, "Brother Lin, does it mean that as long as we gather all the ingredients for the Marrow Cleansing Pills, you will be able to refine them?"

"Yes!" Lin Yifan nodded in response.

He didn't believe that Lin Yanping and Li Dafeng could assemble all the ingredients needed for the Marrow Cleansing Pills.

"Great! If we manage to gather all the ingredients, we would like Brother Lin to help with the refinement. In terms of compensation, Brother Lin, feel free to name your price," Li Dafeng said with modesty and deference.

He felt that, given the relationship between him and Lin Yifan, Lin Yifan wouldn't ask for too high a price, especially considering the favors accumulated on this journey.

"Alright, it's settled," Lin Yifan replied.

He had made a promise off the cuff and it wouldn't be good to go back on his word now; it would be extremely detrimental to the upcoming search for the millennium Blood Ginseng. So, it was better to agree for the time being and deal with things as they arose.

After discussing the Marrow Cleansing Pills, Lin Yifan began to dig out the Channeling Herb from the flower bed.

This was a precious medicinal herb, and every tiny root was especially important; to ensure the integrity of the herb, he excavated carefully, making sure not to break any single root or leaf.

Thus, it took him a full twenty minutes to completely unearth the Channeling Herb.

During those twenty minutes, Lin Yanping and the others waited patiently; had it been before, they certainly wouldn't have had such patience. It was the interests at stake that mattered; Lin Yifan was important to them, so they patiently waited for him to finish digging up the Channeling Herb.

"Channeling Herb! A nice find," Lin Yifan observed the sickle-shaped Channeling Herb in his hands, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

However, it was precisely his excited words that drew the attention of enemies in the jungle.

At that moment, a group of people flew over to their location.

"Leave the Channeling Herb behind!" A young teenager descended from a tree and stood in front of Lin Yifan, demanding.

Behind him, several middle-aged men with exceptional abilities appeared one after another.

Looking at this group, Lin Yifan's brows furrowed deeply, sensing trouble.

These people were of Yellow race, speaking the language of Shenzhou Country; they must be compatriots from Shenzhou Country like themselves.

"Who the hell are you?" Lin Yifan challenged.

Although the opposing group was numerous and formidable, he was not afraid; their side was extraordinarily strong.

"I'll ask one more time, do you give it up or not?" the young man across from him coldly asked again, showing no courtesy.

"I won't!" Lin Yifan retorted firmly; he wanted to see what abilities this group had, daring to commit robbery in broad daylight in the forest.

"Then I'll send you to hell!" After speaking, the teenager drew a sharp dagger and charged towards Lin Yifan, attempting to kill him.

In an instant, the power of the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm erupted without any reservation.

"Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm! Hmph!" Lin Yifan snorted coldly, with extreme contempt, not taking the young man seriously at all.

However, he wasn't scared, but Li Xiaofeng, standing behind him, became anxious. In his memory, Lin Yifan was merely a cultivator of the Breaking Mortal Fourth Realm, definitely not a match for the teenager; he immediately drew his sword and rushed in front of Lin Yifan to protect him.

"Brother Lin, step back, I will meet him in battle."

Lin Yifan had just prepared to take action when Li Xiaofeng stepped in front, so he had no choice but to step back.

Having someone to fight for him, he was too lazy to waste his energy; and not revealing his strength too early was also a good thing. Why not do it?

The youth who charged over with a sharp knife never expected Lin Yifan to actually have a cultivator as an assistant. It was beyond his expectations; he had thought that these four people from Shenzhou Country were just ordinary people.

At this point, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and join the fight. If all else failed, he still had a highly skilled guard.

"Bang!"

The moment the sharp knife clashed with the sword, the arrogant youth realized he was no match for the young man wielding the sword; because he could sense that the other's power was no less than his own.

The next instant, after another clash, he was shocked.

"Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm Peak!"

This was the level of strength he sensed; the realm of the young man wielding the sword and clashing with him was at least at the peak of the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm or above.

Feeling he was no match, he shouted loudly, "Twin Skinny Generals! Come help!"

"Yes, Young Master!"

After finishing, two thin middle-aged men wielding large knives charged over.

Both these men were at the peak of the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm, so Li Xiaofeng was in danger.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

After a few exchanges, Li Xiaofeng was at a disadvantage; seeing this, Lin Yanping immediately joined the fight with her sword to help.

With Lin Yanping, at the early stage of the Divine Transformation First Realm, entering the battle, the tide turned once more against the arrogant youth.

The arrogant youth never expected that there would be a Divinity Transformation Realm expert on Lin Yifan's side, truly beyond his expectations. However, his side also had an expert of the Divinity Transformation Realm, so he had no fear.

The next moment, he called over his guard who was at the early stage of the Divine Transformation First Realm.

Divine Transformation First Realm Early Stage against Divinity Transformation First Realm Early Stage, Lin Yanping couldn't free her hand to help Li Xiaofeng. Thus, Li Xiaofeng, facing two cultivators of the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm Peak, fell into a disadvantage again.

Seeing this, Li Dafeng finally could not sit still; he immediately drew his sword to help.

"Divine Transformation First Realm Middle Stage!" The arrogant youth was shocked once again, not expecting that there was another expert on Lin Yifan's side who hadn't yet fought.

Now, he felt a bit afraid; because his side did not have any guards at the middle stage of the Divine Transformation First Realm, only one at the early stage and two at the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm.

Two guards at the early stage of the Divine Transformation First Realm could hold off one cultivator of the Divine Transformation First Realm Middle Stage, and two guards at the peak of the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm could hold off one cultivator of the Divine Transformation First Realm Early Stage; it was the same with two guards of the Breaking Mortal realm.

Thus, based on this calculation, their strengths were matched; next, it was up to him to deal with the man who found the Channeling Herb.

Even if that man was a cultivator, his strength must be lower than his; this could be seen from the fact that the man at the peak of the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm stepped in to protect him.

With this plan to defeat the enemy, he should be able to snatch the Channeling Herb; so he immediately called over the remaining three guards to help.

Three more cultivators joining the fight balanced the situation again, as if it had returned to the starting point.

At that moment, the arrogant youth who had freed his hands immediately attacked Lin Yifan.

Seeing this, Li Dafeng, Li Xiaofeng, and Lin Yanping all wanted to help, but they were all tied up by the enemy at that moment, truly unable to lend a hand.

Now, they could only depend on Lin Yifan's fate.
