Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor-Chapter 1009: It’s Not a Dream!

With the eighteen Iceheart Fruits, Fang Bai leapt down from the last Ice Peak with satisfaction, then roamed between the Ice Peaks and, unexpectedly, harvested dozens of Tears of Crystal.

Tears of Crystal are the main ingredient for concocting Water Element Pills. Although the dozens of Tears of Crystal Fang Bai had gathered were only about five hundred years old—far less valuable than the eighteen Iceheart Fruits—their sheer quantity was enough to quite surprise him.

"With these cultivation resources to assist, it won’t be long before my strength advances further!"

Fang Bai’s Divine Sense seeped into his Spatial Ring, sweeping over the limbs of two middle-grade Spirit Beasts and dozens of mid-grade Spiritual Medicines, a hint of a smile playing on his lips.

For people like Huang Miao, obtaining a mid-grade Spiritual Medicine or a Spirit Core from a middle-grade Spirit Beast would make their mountain trek a very successful endeavor.

But for Fang Bai, it was the treasures within the Spatial Ring that made this journey worthwhile.

Unknowingly, half a day had slipped by, and Fang Bai, with his bountiful harvest, returned from the Ice Peak area to meet the patiently waiting Huang Miao and others.

Seeing Fang Bai return safe and sound, Huang Miao and the others who had been filled with worry all breathed sighs of relief.

The area around the Ice Peak was regarded as one of the Forbidden Zones of Life by disciples of the Bitao Martial Academy. For nearly ten thousand years, including past deans, no one had dared venture into it.

This time, not only had Fang Bai entered the Ice Peak, but he also returned unscathed, which both shocked and delighted Huang Miao and his companions, and they held him in even higher esteem.

Huang Miao and others knew that Fang Bai must have many hidden secrets unknown to others; otherwise, he couldn’t possibly have safely navigated the Ice Peak, reputed to be a Forbidden Zone of Life.

In the True Martial Realm, almost every Martial Artist has some secrets, some of which are even crucial to preserving their lives.

Thus, Huang Miao and the others consciously refrained from asking Fang Bai how he had traveled in and out of the Ice Peak unscathed. Instead, they kept reminding themselves to befriend Fang Bai and not to antagonize him.

"The trip to the Ice Peak yielded some mid-grade Spiritual Medicines, not a wasted journey,"

Fang Bai said with a smile under the expectant gazes of Huang Miao and the others.

He pulled out dozens of Tears of Crystal from the Spatial Ring for Huang Miao and others to see, but he did not reveal the eighteen Iceheart Fruits.

Fang Bai concealed the matter of the Iceheart Fruits not out of selfish intent or unwillingness to share with Huang Miao and the others, but because the Iceheart Fruits were of a higher grade and contained rich Essence Energy. With the current realm of Huang Miao and the others, they could only absorb part of the Essence Energy, essentially wasting these precious resources.

Fang Bai’s Cultivation Level was much higher than that of Huang Miao and the others, and his unique physique enabled him to fully absorb the Essence Energy contained in the Iceheart Fruits without wasting any.

Therefore, Fang Bai simply kept the matter of the Iceheart Fruits to himself without informing Huang Miao and the others.

In the True Martial Realm, some Martial Artists valued cultivation resources more than life itself, so by sharing the dozens of Tears of Crystal he had gathered, Fang Bai was already displaying tremendous generosity.

As Fang Bai had anticipated, when he displayed the dozens of Tears of Crystal before Huang Miao and the others, they were all stunned and showed faces of disbelief.

Before entering the mountains for their training, Huang Miao and the others dreamt of picking a single piece of mid-grade Spiritual Medicine. However, after entering the core area of Bitao Mountain Range under Fang Bai’s guidance, they obtained two pieces of mid-grade Spiritual Medicine, which left them overjoyed and ecstatic.

Now, Fang Bai took out dozens of mid-grade Spiritual Medicines at once and laid them in front of them. The shock it brought them is easily imaginable; each person felt like they were in a dream.

"Ah..."

Liu Zhuhu pinched himself hard, unable to withhold a scream as tears almost burst forth. Then he shouted wildly with joy, "It’s real! I’m not dreaming!"

Then, Liu Liehu squatted down and casually picked up a Tears of Crystal to examine closely.

However, what Liu Liehu did not expect was that as soon as his palm grasped the Tears of Crystal, a bone-chilling cold seeped into his palm, freezing his blood instantly and halting its flow.

Simultaneously, a thin layer of ice quickly formed on the surface of Liu Liehu’s palm.

The layer of ice spread up from his fingers as the chill invaded Liu Liehu’s body; by the time Liu Liehu realized what was happening, his entire right arm had been encased in ice, losing all sensation, and he couldn’t even drop the Tears of Crystal.

"How... How could this happen?"

Liu Liehu was shocked and tried to stand up but found that the blood in his body seemed to have partially solidified, rendering him unable to move.

"This guy..."

Fang Bai knew that Liu Liehu would suffer as soon as he picked up the Tears of Crystal. It was too late to stop him, and seeing him in pain, he shook his head with a wry smile, stood beside him, placed his palm on Liu Liehu’s frozen right shoulder, and transferred a strand of Fire Primordial Qi into the meridians and blood vessels of his arm.

This strand of Fire Primordial Qi from Fang Bai was much stronger than the cold from the Tears of Crystal that had seeped into Liu Liehu’s body. It immediately expelled the cold from Liu Liehu’s arm. The layer of ice covering Liu Liehu’s arm also instantly melted away, evaporating into vapor.

Feeling his right arm regain mobility, Liu Liehu immediately threw the Tears of Crystal onto the ground and stood as far away from it as if it were a venomous snake, not daring to come close again.

The others, including Huang Miao, who had seen Tears of Crystal for the first time, initially wanted to touch it like Liu Liehu, but seeing his plight, they hurriedly withdrew their extending arms.

"These Tears of Crystal grow in the extremely low temperatures between Ice Peaks, absorbing hundreds of years of extremely cold Water Element Qi. Ordinary Martial Artists cannot withstand that kind of extreme cold Water Element Qi..."

Fang Bai said this and glared at Liu Liehu, saying irritably, "You, you’re too impulsive! You didn’t even bother to find out what kind of Spiritual Medicine it was before recklessly reaching for it. I’ll tell you, if I weren’t here, you would have been dead!"

Realizing that he had almost made a grave mistake, Liu Liehu scratched his head with some fear and, his face flushed, said, "Brother Fang, it was my mistake. I won’t be reckless again."

Fang Bai nodded, "It’s good to change if you know your mistakes."

He continued, addressing Huang Miao and the others, "These dozens of Tears of Crystal will also be temporarily stored in my Spatial Ring. When we exchange them for Cultivation Resources later on, we will still share them."

The dozens of Tears of Crystal, all mid-grade Spiritual Medicines, could be exchanged at the Martial Artists Trading Market for a hefty amount of Cultivation Resources in the future, enough to greatly enhance each of their powers.

Huang Miao and the others, upon hearing Fang Bai’s words, looked at each other with uncontrollable joy on their faces.
