A Mortalâs Medicinal Elixirs
Chapter 82 The Spiritual Herb of ThreeâTreasure and the Secret Method of Nourishing
Brandon did not know if someone was backing William, but he had to help hype William up for the moment, so he pointed upward with his hand.
Tristan trembled all over. âCould it beâ¦â
Brandon said nonchalantly, âItâs enough that you understand. I canât say too much.â
Tristan hurriedly said, âYes. Thank you so much for your hint, Master Cromwell. I know what to do from
now on!â
After finishing his task, Brandon went to find Gerald as well. At that moment, William was checking the color of the medicinal soup in the big vat. He glanced at it and said, âThe toxins have been neutralized.â Gerald was in an excellent mood now and spoke with a smile, âDr. Barrett, thank you for your hard work.â William replied, âDonât mention it, Mr. White. Youâre the worldâfamous sword deity. Itâs my honor to be able to cure your injury.â
Gerald laughed. âIâm no sword deity. Itâs all just rumors. At most, I know a few sword techniques.â
William asked him, âWhy did you kill that poisonous snake before this?â
Gerald gave a bitter smile and said, âItâs a coincidence. I like to travel in the wild, and a few days ago, I arrived at a primitive forest in Symphonia. I wanted to collect some wild mountain herbs to take home. Not long after I set out, I saw a plant with three flowers blooming on it. They were blue, red, and white respectively. It also had a bunch of purple fruit, which emitted a strange fragrance. I took a look and knew it wasnât ordinary, so I wanted to take it away. But then, a big snake suddenly sprang out. In a moment of desperation, I slashed it with my sword.â
âBut that snake was too powerful. It swept me away with its tail and sent me flying. Then, it spewed out rainbowâcolored gas after it landed on the ground. I only took a breath of that gas and nearly fainted. Fortunately, I relied on my cultivation base to force out a sword radiance and cut off the snakeâs head. Although I slayed it, I was also injured. The poison entered my blood, and I couldnât move at the time. Later, I was carried back home, thanks to Jaxson and his men.â
Williamâs thoughts were all on that triâcolored flower. As soon as he heard its description, his heart skipped a beat. Isnât that the Spiritual Herb of ThreeâTreasure? The fruit it bears is called the ThreeâTreasure Pill. Itâs even more precious than the blood fungus!
He remained calm and asked, âMr. White, did you collect that mysterious herb?â
Gerald nodded. âI ordered someone to collect it and put it in a jade box. Then, he told Jaxson, âJaxson, bring the box here.â
Jaxson quickly rummaged through his luggage and found the jade box. After opening it, a plant about. twenty centimeters long, with three flowers on top, was revealed. In the middle of the plant, a string of purple fruit, each about the size of a soybean, hung with about twenty to thirty of them.
Gerald observed William and asked, âDo you recognize this medicine, Dr. Barrett?â
William nodded. âThis is the Spiritual Herb of ThreeâTreasure. It can be used as medicine. If Iâd known

about it earlier, I wouldâve used it to detoxify you instead of using the blood fungus. The effect wouldâve been far better.â
Gerald thought this was indeed a person of extraordinary knowledge, so he continued to ask, âWhat is the use of this plant?â
William replied. âThe fruit it bears is called the ThreeâTreasure Pill; itâs to refine elixirs.â
Geraldâs heart skipped a beat. âItâs part of alchemy? Dr. Barrett, do you practice alchemy?â
In Igneus, some ancient inheritances possessed profound alchemical knowledge. However, such individuals were extremely rare, and he had never encountered one in his entire life.
William shook his head. âMy cultivation base is too low. If I want to practice alchemy, I need to at least reach the Innate Realm.â
Geraldâs heart jumped with joy. âSo, you mean to say once you reached the Innate Realm, you can practice alchemy?â
William could practice alchemy since the medical knowledge he learned included a whole section on alchemy, but he had not studied it in depth. He did not deny it and simply said, âI know a little bit.â
Everyone present was shocked and looked at William differently. If someone could practice alchemy, their status in the underworld would be like that of an immortal!
Geraldâs gaze swept over to Jaxson. I canât believe this fool offended Dr. Barrett!
Jaxson was not stupid. He immediately came to Williamâs side and clasped his hands together, pleading, âDr. Barrett, you cured my father. My family is very grateful. I was wrong before. I didnât know right from wrong, and I terrorized you. I shouldnât have done that! I hope you can forgive me.â
William responded calmly, âItâs all right. The past is past. Mr. Jesse, I hope you think twice before acting in the future.â
âYes, Dr. Barrett. Iâve learned my lesson.â Jaxson smiled. âYouâve worked hard today. Hereâs a little something as a token of appreciation. Please accept it. He handed over a check worth a staggering 3 million without hesitation.
William did not refuse and accepted the check. Thank you.â
After seeing him accept the check, Jaxson breathed a sigh of relief. He was terrified that William would refuse it. However, Gerald said, âMoney is just a worldly possession. Dr. Barrett, Iâll gift this Spiritual Herb of ThreeâTreasure to you!â
William was surprised. âA gift to me?â
Gerald nodded and said, âI canât fully realize the value of this divine herb if itâs in my hands, but itâs different in yours. You can maximize its value and benefit people.â
William hesitated a bit. The proper effect of the Spiritual Herb of ThreeâTreasure was indeed astonishing! However, he did not mention the full potential of the herb. If used well, this medicine could easily help someone reach the Innate Realm!
After a moment of silence, William suddenly asked, âHow long have you been in the Innate Realm, Mr.
White?

The Innate Realm was the final stage of the Yellow Realm, also known as the Foundation Realm. It was a crucial stage; without a stable foundation in this realm, it was impossible to advance to higher levels of the Profound Realm.
Gerald smiled and said, âItâs been seven years.â
William thought for a second and continued, âThe Innate Realm, also known as the Foundation Realm. requires the cultivation of Innate Prenatal Breathing. Your breathing technique is very advanced, but you donât know the proper way to nourish yourself, which has led to a gradual weakening of your Innate Prenatal Breathing. If nothing unexpected happens, your cultivation base will deteriorate to the previous Realm within two years.â
Geraldâs face changed dramatically as he looked at William in shock before waving his hand. âAll of you, leave!â
Everyone left, leaving only William and Gerald, who forced a smile. âDr. Barrett, youâre truly a divine being! Yes. My cultivation base has been regressing for the past three years!â
William replied calmly. âThis is the consequence of not knowing how to nourish yourself. Only by doing so can you stabilize your cultivation base and ultimately build a solid foundation for advancing to the Kings Realm.â
Gerald bowed submissively, and his face was earnest as he said, âPlease teach me!â
William replied indifferently, âInitially, I was unwilling to say much because everyone has their own fortunes. However, since youâve presented me with the Spiritual Herb of ThreeâTreasure, I cannot refuse to repay this favor.â
He immediately approached and imparted to Gerald the method of nourishing the body while leaving three prescriptions for Gerald to take at different times. The medicinal ingredients listed on the prescriptions were all precious, and only a large clan like the White Family could afford to consume them.
After receiving Williamâs guidance, Gerald was flushed with excitement. He even jumped out of the vat
mustnât!â
and kneeled before William, who quickly stepped aside and expressed, âven jumped out of the vat
However, Gerald still kneeled and stated in a deep voice, âIn exchange for saving my life and granting me a new beginning, please accept my respectful bow!â
The cultivation techniques William imparted were untrivial. With his guidance, Gerald felt as if he had been given a new lease on life. His gratitude could only be expressed through such a bow of respect!
