Battle Through the Heavens: Soul Palace, Gu Yan!

Chapter 10 Gift of Treasure

"Little Fairy Doctor?"

"medical?"

"Are you an alchemist?"

Gu Yan asked, feigning curiosity.

Upon hearing this, Little Fairy Doctor's eyes dimmed slightly, and she said softly, "I am a physician from the Ten Thousand Medicines Hall, not an alchemist."

Gu Yan was taken aback and asked in confusion, "I heard that physicians are also a type of alchemist."

Little Fairy Doctor nodded gently and said, "Doctors can indeed be considered a type of alchemist, but their status is much lower than that of alchemists. After all, we cannot actually refine pills; we can only use ordinary flames to mix medicinal herbs together to achieve the effect of treating people."

After a pause, Little Fairy Doctor continued, "However, this is far inferior to the pills made by alchemists."

Gu Yan nodded and asked, "Then can you become an alchemist?"

Little Fairy Doctor pursed her red lips and said helplessly, "If it were that easy to become an alchemist, then this profession wouldn't be so special."

She let out a soft breath and continued, "Because of my innate attributes, I cannot become an alchemist, so I have no choice but to become a physician."

As she spoke, a hint of sadness appeared on Little Fairy Doctor's pretty face. Clearly, what she hoped for most was to become an alchemist, rather than an ordinary doctor.

Seeing Little Fairy Doctor's expression, Gu Yan nodded thoughtfully.

"I happen to have something here that might suit you; at least it can improve your ability to protect yourself."

Gu Yan took out the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture and handed it to Little Fairy Doctor.

"What is this?" Little Fairy Doctor blinked and asked.

"You can see for yourself," Gu Yan said with a slight smile.

"A book on poisons that records how to concoct poisons?!" After flipping through it a few times, Little Fairy Doctor raised her eyebrows in surprise.

In the Dou Qi Continent, generally only physicians would prepare poisons for self-defense.

People generally refer to this type of person as a poison master.

However, the status of poison masters is much lower than that of alchemists.

"Are you a poison master?" Little Fairy Doctor frowned slightly.

Gu Yan smiled and shook his head, saying, "I only recently found it in a cave left by someone before. This thing is indeed good, but it takes a lot of effort to master it. I don't plan to touch it. Now, I feel it's more suitable for you."

"You're going to give me something so valuable?" Little Fairy Doctor was somewhat incredulous.

After all, this was the first time she had met the person in front of her.

Gu Yan nodded and smiled, "I have a good eye for people. I believe you are a kind doctor and a kind girl, and you will definitely use this Seven-Colored Poison Scripture for the right purpose."

"Thank you." Hearing Gu Yan say this, Little Fairy Doctor's heart was quietly stirred. After a few breaths of silence, she nodded gratefully to him.

"No need to thank me. It's fate that we met here... By the way, shouldn't you put away what you have in your hand now?" Gu Yan smiled slightly as he looked at Little Fairy Doctor putting away the seven-colored scroll, but then suddenly said indifferently.

The Fairy Doctor's pretty face froze slightly, then a hint of embarrassment appeared on her face.

She opened her jade-like hand, revealing a small bag of green powder, which she held in her hand.

"I..." Little Fairy Doctor blushed slightly after Gu Yan exposed her little thoughts, and stammered, unable to speak.

"Don't feel embarrassed. After all, you're a woman, and I seem rather mysterious. It's no big deal to be a little wary." Gu Yan shrugged and smiled nonchalantly.

"Thank you." After thanking her again, Little Fairy Doctor quickly put away the green powder in her hand.

At this moment, Xiao Lin emerged from the dense forest, a yellowish-brown magic core dangling from his mouth.

The little fairy doctor's beautiful eyes widened instantly.

At this moment, Gu Yan casually asked, "What's the purpose of your green powder?"

After asking the question, Gu Yan took out a bucket of water from his storage ring and asked Xiao Lin to go in and take a bath first.

Seeing this strange scene, Little Fairy Doctor was slightly taken aback, and then quickly explained, "That is made by mixing Drunken Dragon Grass with several other herbs that have hypnotic effects. Once inhaled, it can make a person sleep for half a day. However, anyone with a slightly stronger strength can use their battle qi to suppress the poison or even force it out of their body."

Little Fairy Doctor still felt a little embarrassed.

Gu Yan nodded and didn't say anything more.

Soon, Xiao Lin washed herself clean and jumped back onto Gu Yan's shoulder.

After hesitating for a moment, Little Fairy Doctor still asked, "I don't know your name yet, can you tell me?"

Gu Yan raised an eyebrow, remained silent for a moment, and then forced a smile before saying, "Gu Yan."

It seems the person in front of me wasn't paying attention at all when I gave my name...

"Thank you," Little Fairy Doctor said again.

"You don't seem to be from Qingshan Town."

Gu Yan nodded and said, "That's right, I'm here to train."

"Experience, perhaps..."

After a moment of contemplation, Little Fairy Doctor looked up into Gu Yan's eyes and said, "I want to take you to a place that might be very suitable for your cultivation."

"Of course, if you don't trust me and are afraid I'll harm you..."

"Then let's set off." Gu Yan interrupted Little Fairy Doctor with a smile.

He seemed to have guessed where Little Fairy Doctor was going.

Perfect timing, it's about time he broke through.

Looking at Gu Yan, who agreed to her suggestion without the slightest hesitation, the smile on Xiao Yixian's pretty face softened imperceptibly.

This trust touched Little Fairy Doctor's heart.

Soon, Gu Yan spotted Little Fairy Doctor's blue eagle.

Fifteen minutes later, they arrived at a place where energy was extremely abundant.

Gu Yan had anticipated this place.

In the original novel, Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian lived here for a period of time.

Xiao Lan flew directly from high altitude into the depths of the basin.

It slowly descended deep into the basin.

The dense energy filling the valley was extremely pure; Gu Yan only needed to take a deep breath to feel his spirits lifted.

"How is it? Is this place good?"

"This small valley is completely isolated from the outside world, and it is shrouded in thick fog, making it extremely secluded."

"If Xiao Lan hadn't accidentally wandered in, I probably wouldn't have discovered this wondrous place." Looking at Gu Yan's amazed expression, Little Fairy Doctor smiled smugly.

"It's really great."

Nodding in admiration, Gu Yan's gaze swept across the valley filled with a faint mist of energy, and he immediately spotted various rare medicinal herbs.

The aroma of herbs mingled with the mist, creating a refreshing and pleasant atmosphere.

"This is a perfect place to identify medicinal herbs; it's an excellent setting for hands-on lessons."

"I plan to stay here for a while. You can also cultivate here. Whenever you want to leave, I will have Xiao Lan send you out."

"No problem." Upon hearing this, Gu Yan readily agreed without hesitation.

To be honest, such a good place for cultivation is not something you can come across easily.

In truth, he knew that the reason Little Fairy Doctor was willing to bring him here was mainly because he had given her the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture.

Little Fairy Doctor didn't want to owe anyone a favor.

Although the valley is isolated from the world and can only be reached by Little Fairy Doctor's blue eagle, Gu Yan is not worried because he can fly now.

What's more, he also has a spatial teleportation talisman.

Seeing that Gu Yan agreed, Little Fairy Doctor nodded with a smile.

She blew a bamboo whistle at the blue eagle, letting it fly freely, and then led Gu Yan on foot to a corner of the small valley.

Pointing to a thatched hut, Little Fairy Doctor smiled and said, "This is what I built this year. Let's live in it."

"It's a nice place, but unfortunately I can only stay for three days at most," Gu Yan said with some regret.

Little Fairy Doctor's eyes flickered slightly, but she did not ask any further questions.
