"Twenty days," Xiao Fang answered.

"Twenty days? There are just over twenty days left until the deadline. I wonder how An Qi is doing now," Lin Yifan said anxiously.

The deadline given to him by the old landlady was five months, and in just over twenty days, it would be five months; if he could not bring back the thousand-year-old Blood Ginseng within these next twenty days, An Qi's life would be in danger.

However, if Li Dafeng and the others had brought back the hundred-year Lingzhi, it might extend An Qi's life for a few more months; but it was uncertain if Li Dafeng and the others had brought back the hundred-year Lingzhi; therefore, he could not stay long in Peach Blossom Valley.

Thus, he decided to advance to the next realm in Peach Blossom Valley first, then leave Peach Blossom Valley.

Peach Blossom Valley was definitely within Feizhou, and now that he had learned the "Peerless Under Heaven" Qinggong, as long as there was sufficient Cultivation Power, he would be able to fly long distances, so he should be able to quickly find a country with an airport.

As long as there was an airport, everything would be easy to handle.

"Senior sister! Does Peach Blossom Valley have Spirit Stones? Where are they?" Lin Yifan inquired.

These days, he was either in closed-door cultivation or practicing, and had not properly wandered around Peach Blossom Valley, so he was unfamiliar with many places.

"Why do you ask that?" Xiao Fang replied.

"I want to elevate my realm," Lin Yifan responded.

Upon understanding Lin Yifan's purpose, Xiao Fang let down her guard and said, "There are Spirit Stones, but I think Yuan Force Pills are better, do you need any?"

Spirit Stones are the accumulation of Spiritual Energy. Cultivators absorb Spiritual Energy and then need to transform it to become Cultivation Power stored within their bodies. Yuan Force Pills, on the other hand, contain Cultivation Power, and Cultivators can directly absorb and retain it without the need for transformation after ingestion.

However, Yuan Force Pills have a risk: one cannot consume too many at once; otherwise, if absorption is not timely, it could lead to a bodily explosion.

"I need them! I really need them!" Lin Yifan replied.

He was well aware that Yuan Force Pills were more important than Spirit Stones, but since high-grade Elixirs like Yuan Force Pills were hard to find, he had not asked about them earlier.

"How many bottles do you need?" Xiao Fang inquired.

"Senior sister, how many pills are there in one bottle of Yuan Force Pill?" Lin Yifan curiously asked.

"Five!" Xiao Fang honestly answered.

"Then two bottles would be good for me," Lin Yifan responded.

Having too many would be of no use to him, and two bottles of Yuan Force Pills would be enough to elevate his realm; hence, he only asked for two.

"Okay! Wait here for a moment. I'll go get them for you right now!" After saying this, Xiao Fang hurriedly left.

Soon after, she came out of the house holding two bottles of the elixirs.

"Junior brother! Here! These are the Yuan Force Pills refined by your senior sister. If there are any other imperfections, please forgive me," Xiao Fang said, offering the Elixirs with both hands and full of affection.

"Uh... this..." Lin Yifan was somewhat speechless.

He had thought that Xiao Fang had gotten Elixirs refined by Bright True Master, but it turned out they were her own, which made him somewhat embarrassed to accept them, especially since Xiao Fang was a Cultivator who also needed Yuan Force Pills to elevate her realm.

"Senior sister! You give me the Yuan Force Pills, but what about you?" Lin Yifan inquired.

"I can still refine them, and besides, there are many more in the Elixir Vault. You are pressed for time, so just take them quickly," Xiao Fang urged.

She knew Lin Yifan was short on time, so she wanted to help wherever she could without minding anything else.

"Then I won't be polite, Junior Brother." Lin Yifan didn't waste any words and immediately took the two bottles of Yuan Force Pills.

After obtaining the Yuan Force Pills, he went to look for a place to cultivate; An Qi also went about her own tasks.

After searching here and there, he still felt that the riverside was the most tranquil, so he settled there to cultivate.

Upon opening the bottle cap and smelling the fragrance of the elixir wafting from the bottle, Lin Yifan couldn't help but nod in approval.

An Qi's Yuan Force Pills belonged to the superior grade — not too flawed and acceptable. Besides, this also proved that An Qi was a high-level alchemist.

"Dual cultivation of martial arts and medicine, are all disciples from Medicinal Saint Valley like this?"

Lin Yifan didn't ponder further, as obviously, in the Cultivation World, life would be truly uninteresting without cultivation.

He poured out a pill and swallowed it immediately; then he began to absorb the wildly sprinting Cultivation Power within his body.

With the black bead present, Lin Yifan's absorption speed was much faster than that of ordinary cultivators.

Where ordinary cultivators took an hour or even several hours to absorb the cultivation power of a Yuan Force Pill, he only needed a few short minutes, very quick indeed.

After absorbing the cultivation power of one Yuan Force Pill, Lin Yifan continued with the second one.

Just like that, it wasn't until the seventh pill that he started to experience a hint of pain.

At that time, the black bead gradually began to swell and expand, seemingly on the verge of advancing to the next realm.

Seizing this opportunity, he quickly swallowed two Yuan Force Pills, hoping to break through the realm in one go.

Once the two Yuan Force Pills entered his stomach, it swelled instantly, and he was in excruciating pain.

"Ah!!!"

Lin Yifan bore the pain and continuously waited for the black bead to absorb the wild cultivation power in his stomach.

The black bead, despite its increased size, did not slow down its absorption rate. Not only did it not slow down, but it even sped up, obviously it too wished to break through quickly.

His stomach's condition was relieved, but his heart started to suffer even more; at this moment his heart was twice its normal size, and if not for the black bead employing cultivation power to reinforce his heart, it would have "exploded" and killed him by now.

The cultivation power provided by the two Yuan Force Pills was extremely violent, and the black bead took a long time to absorb it all.

An Qi's Yuan Force Pills contained much more cultivation power than ordinary people's because she was a power from the Divinity Transformation Realm, naturally refining according to her own realm. Meanwhile, Lin Yifan was just a cultivator from the Breaking Mortal Realm, definitely taking a long time to digest and fully store all this cultivation power.

As time passed, and as the stomach's power gradually dissipated, the black bead finally reached a bottleneck, about to burst forth soon.

Just then, Lin Yifan felt the cultivation power in his stomach was insufficient, so he immediately swallowed the last Yuan Force Pill.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the black bead received a massive surge of cultivation power, breaking through the bottleneck and advancing to another great realm.

The cultivation power from the Breaking Mortal Fourth Realm bottle all flooded into this great realm, filling it up. Simultaneously, the residual cultivation power in the stomach also rapidly flowed into this new realm, solidifying and being stored.

This was the internal manifestation within the body, but externally, a force swept outwards, destroying all objects in its path.

In an instant, the river not far in front of Lin Yifan erupted with a loud noise, shooting up several water columns that pierced the sky. Simultaneously, the flowers and grass within a few meters around him were utterly destroyed.
