The Strongest Qi Refiner

The mountainous area in northwestern China is like a primitive area, with no roads, no cars, and few people.

Surrounded by mountains, there is a solitary thatched cottage. There are many herbs planted in the open space outside the thatched cottage, and the fragrance of medicine is overflowing.

There is not much space in the thatched hut, only a bed and a desk, and the desk is full of books and various grass papers.

At this time, an old man with white hair and beard was lying on the bed, his eyes were closed, and his face was peaceful.

A boy who looked only seventeen or eighteen was sitting beside the bed.

"Xiao Xia, I really envy you, you have only lived for eighty-one years, and you can pass away peacefully." Fang Yu said to himself with a smile, looking at the old man who had just passed away on the bed.

"Oh, I'm miserable, I don't know how many years I have to live." Fang Yu sighed, there was pain in his eyes, but more helplessness.

It has been nearly five thousand years since he stepped into the path of cultivation.

During this long period of time, Fang Yu could not die, and his realm could never move forward.

After cultivating for nearly five thousand years, he is still in the qi refining stage!

That's right, Qi refining period! The most basic realm of the road of cultivation!

According to strict standards, the Qi refining period cannot even be regarded as a realm, it can only be regarded as a body refining period.

Only after the foundation is established can one truly step into the path of immortality.

But Fang Yu had been stuck at the stage of Qi Refining, unable to move forward.

For thousands of years, he has swallowed tens of thousands of Foundation Establishment Pills, but it has no effect at all.

A thousand years ago, Fang Yu's master even comforted him, saying that because his spiritual roots were stronger than anyone else's, he had to wait a little longer in qi refining.

But a thousand years later, Fang Yu was still unable to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

At this time, his master also thought that he had made a mistake. Fang Yu was actually just a mortal without spiritual roots?

But how could a mortal live for a thousand years without even showing signs of aging?

Later, Fang Yu's master succeeded in transcending the calamity, ascended to immortality, and left the earth.

After that, no one cared about Fang Yu's realm.

With the passage of time, the aura resources on the earth are getting thinner and thinner.

Today's earth, even if Fang Yu can break through the realm, it is destined to be unable to transcend tribulation and become immortal.

But Fang Yu never thought about transcending the calamity and becoming an immortal, he just wanted to break through this damn qi refining period!

This is his obsession.

To this day, he has cultivated to the 9832nd floor of the Qi Refining Stage. As for ordinary cultivators, as long as they reach the 12th floor, they can break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

When he thought about cultivation, Fang Yu felt a little depressed.

He took a deep breath, stood up, and looked at the straw papers on the desk that were filled with various prescriptions.

"If I had known you would become such a drug idiot, I shouldn't have taught you medical skills back then!" Fang Yu shook his head gently, helplessly.

According to Xiao Xia's last wish, he will organize these prescriptions and take them away.

Not long after he started tidying up, he heard some noisy footsteps, immediately raised his head and looked in a direction outside the window of the thatched cottage.

Xiao Xia has built a thatched cottage in such a place, how can someone still find it?

Fang Yu frowned slightly.

After ten minutes, a group of people came to the thatched cottage.

There were seven people in total, including two young men and women, an old man in a wheelchair, and four strong men in suits and leather shoes, who looked like bodyguards.

Seeing the deadly old man in the wheelchair, Fang Yu knew that this group of people must have come to seek medical treatment.

"Xia Yaoshen, hello, my name is Tang Feng, we are from the Tang family in Jiangnan, we would like to ask you to give me..." The handsome young man stepped forward and said loudly.

Fang Yu opened the door and interrupted him.

"You are late, Xia Xiuzhi just passed away."

what! ?

The expressions of everyone present changed.

Xia Xiuzhi, the god of medicine they had been searching for... actually died! ?

"Why, how could it be..." Tang Feng turned pale and stared blankly at Fang Yu.

In order to cure the serious illness on the old man Tang, they used the resources of the entire family and spent a lot of manpower and material resources to find out the location of Xia Xiuzhi, the god of medicine who had been in hiding for nearly 20 years.

After untold hardships, they finally found the thatched hut where Xia Xiuzhi lived, but what they got was this news!

"How could it be so coincidental? We just found it... No, Xia Yaoshen definitely didn't die, he just avoided the world and didn't want to see us!" The delicate-looking young girl said excitedly with her beautiful eyes flushed.

"Yes! The God of Medicine is definitely still in the thatched hut!" Tang Feng's eyes glowed with hope, and he stepped directly into the thatched hut.

Then, he saw Xia Xiuzhi lying on the bed with his eyes closed.

Tang Feng observed carefully and found that the old man on the bed was indeed not breathing.

"Why, how could this be..." Tang Feng only felt that his hope was dashed, and he lost all his strength.

"I said, Xia Xiuzhi has passed away, you can go back." Fang Yu frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied with Tang Feng's move into the thatched hut.

Tang Feng suddenly thought of something, turned his head to look at Fang Yu, and asked, "Are you a disciple of the God of Medicine? You must have inherited the medical skills of God of Medicine. You can treat our grandfather, as long as it can be cured, no matter how much. We are willing to pay for it!"

Fang Yu shook his head and said, "I'm not his apprentice... I'm just an old friend of his."

In fact, strictly speaking, Fang Yu was Xia Xiuzhi's master.

Xia Xiuzhi, who was only fifteen years old at the time, embarked on the path of medicine only under the guidance of Fang Yu. Of course, there is no need to say these words, and no one will believe them.

However, even the old friend's statement seems strange.

Fang Yu looked less than 20 years old, and Xia Xiuzhi was in his 80s. The two were not in the same age group at all. How could they be called old friends?

However, no one thought about it at this time, and the whole group was immersed in despair of shattered hope.

After hearing the news of Xia Xiuzhi's death, Mr. Tang, who was in a wheelchair, completely lost his anger and his eyes were gray.

God's will! His fate has come! No need to struggle any more!

The young girl was so sad when she saw her grandfather like this, her tears couldn't stop falling.

Fang Yu frowned slightly, looked at Mr. Tang, and suddenly said, "You have lived for seventy-three years, you should have lived enough, why do you still want to live?"

Hearing this sentence, everyone was stunned, wondering how Fang Yu knew the age of Old Man Tang.

But when they heard Fang Yu's words behind them, their expressions changed.

Enough?

Where in the world would anyone have enough to live?

What does it mean! ?

provocative? ridicule?

"You bastard, what do you mean!?" Tang Feng's face was ashen, and he punched Fang Yu's chest.

Fang Yu's eyes moved slightly, but his body did not move.

"boom!"

Before Tang Feng's fist touched Fang Yu, he was hit by a huge force, and he flew backwards and fell to the ground.

The expressions of other people present changed greatly, and they were shocked.

Obviously it was Tang Feng who punched, but the boy didn't even move. Why did Tang Feng fall to the ground instead?

"Brother!" the pretty girl screamed.

The four bodyguards reacted and immediately took a few steps forward and walked to Fang Yu.

"Don't do it!" Mr. Tang, who was in a wheelchair, ordered in a hoarse voice.

The four bodyguards stopped immediately.

Tang Feng covered his chest, got up from the ground, and looked at Fang Yu with horrified eyes.

"Little brother, we're rude, what's your name?" Old Man Tang asked.

"Fang Yu." Fang Yu replied.

The old man Tang nodded slightly and said, "Just now, little brother, you asked me why I still want to live, and I can answer."

"Because, I want to continue to accompany my family, I want to watch my grandchildren grow up, watch them start a family, watch them give birth to offspring... Isn't that what everyone is like? Watching from generation to generation." Old Man Tang smiled said.

"Grandpa..." Hearing the words of the old man Tang, the girl next to him cried even more sadly.

family……

Fang Yu's eyes moved slightly.

For him, family is a long time ago, but for mortals, family has always existed, generation after generation.

And the vast majority of mortals, who wouldn't want to live longer?

"You have advanced lung cancer, and you have less than three months to live. Enjoy the last period of your life." Fang Yu said, turned back to the thatched hut, and closed the door.

The Tang family and the others were stunned.

How did Fang Yu see at a glance that Mr. Tang had lung cancer? And as those doctors said, Mr. Tang has less than three months to live?

He is indeed the apprentice of the God of Medicine!

After reacting, Tang Feng knocked on the door of the thatched cottage again and shouted, "Mr. Fang, you are definitely the apprentice of the God of Medicine, right? Please treat my grandfather, we..."

"Life and death are yours. Leave here immediately, otherwise don't blame me for being rude." Fang Yu's calm voice came from the thatched cottage.

"The doctor is benevolent, how can you die without saving..." Tang Feng said with anger.

"Feng'er, come back." Mr. Tang said.

"Grandpa!" Tang Feng's eyes were red, and he turned to look at Mr. Tang.

"Little brother is right, life and death have fate, God wants me to die, how can I not die? Let's go." Old Man Tang said.

"Little brother, I have great respect for Mr. Xia. I didn't expect Mr. Xia to have passed away... Today, our arrival has disturbed Mr. Xia. I am very sorry. I hope Mr. Xia will not blame him in the spirit of heaven." Mr. Tang sincerely said again. said.

After he finished speaking, he greeted the group and turned to leave.

Although Tang Feng was not reconciled, since Mr. Tang ordered him, he had no choice but to leave.

On the way back, no one said a word, and the atmosphere was gloomy.

Tang Feng noticed the thoughtfulness of his sister beside him, and asked with a frown, "Xiaorou, what are you thinking about?"

Tang Xiaorou frowned slightly and murmured, "I always feel... this Fang Yu is a little familiar, seems to have seen him somewhere."

"How is this possible? This is the first time we have come to the Northwest Region. How could you have met this Fang Yu?" Tang Feng said.

"That's right... But, I really feel a little familiar." Tang Xiaorou rubbed her temples and said.

Tang Feng was in a bad mood, so she ignored Tang Xiaorou and thought she was the wrong person.

However, after walking a few more steps, Tang Xiaorou suddenly stopped.

"I, I remember, I saw him at school!"
