"Elder Shilian, you wait for me outside the city," Zhirui said, for the sake of not drawing the attention of those mortals, he parked the Spirit Boat two miles outside the city and prepared to enter alone.
Elder Li nodded, as there was nothing in Baishan County that could harm Li Zhirui anymore; it was alright for him to go alone.
Guided by Zhirui, he and the hunter flew into the city from an unoccupied corner and into an old courtyard in the north of the city.
"Who do you want to save?"
The hunter quickly replied, "My wife."
"Dad!" A lively little boy ran out, his eyes full of curiosity as he looked at Zhirui, "Dad, is this big brother the doctor you found? Can he cure mom?"
"This is the Immortal Master!"
"The omnipotent Immortal Master from the storybooks who slays demons and dispels monsters?" The child's eyes lit up with anticipation, and he asked earnestly, "Immortal Master, you're so powerful, you can definitely cure my mom, right?"
Zhirui looked at the boy with interest and replied with a faint smile, "You'll have to take me to see your mother first."
Upon stepping through the doorway, a strong medicinal scent hit them, and in the room, apart from the young woman lying on the sickbed, there was also a girl of about ten years old, spoon-feeding her medicine.
At first glance, Zhirui felt something was off about the woman, and upon scanning her with his Divine Sense, he discovered that she was a cultivator!
However, the Spiritual Energy within her was so pitifully scarce that Zhirui hadn't realized her true identity right away.
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to expend your energy in vain. My meridians are severed, beyond the help of medicine or stones, and my life will not last much longer," the woman said.
"I am willing to offer all my possessions in exchange for you taking them away from Baishan County, ensuring they live out their days without disaster or difficulty."
Zhirui hesitated; it would not be much trouble to take ordinary mortals back to Da Rong Island, but the presence of the female cultivator made him unsure.
"Inside my storage bag, there is a Pill Scripture and information about my identity. After you have looked it over, you can decide whether or not to take them with you," the woman said, as if she had exhausted all her strength, her breathing becoming rapid.
"Mom, don't talk anymore..."
This Hundred Herbs Pill, similar to the Consolidating Yuan Pill, was also used to aid cultivators in their practice. But this pill was quite unique, with a lineage of formulas across three grades.
If refined with ten kinds of first-grade Spiritual Medicine, it would result in a first-grade Spirit Pill. However, if refined with fifty kinds of first-grade Spiritual Medicine, the result would be a second-grade Spirit Pill!
And if one used ninety-nine kinds of first-grade Spiritual Medicine, along with one kind of third-grade Spiritual Medicine, they could create a third-grade Spirit Pill, although she did not know the specific third-grade recipe. It was only mentioned briefly at the end.
As for the second volume, with her status back in Medicine King Valley, she wasn't qualified to inherit it, as her talent for alchemy was average.

Even if she had acquired it, it would have been sealed, preventing her from copying it.
She had only heard her Golden Core father mention once that the first volume was merely the art of alchemy, while the second volume represented the Tao of Alchemy!
Li Zhirui vaguely understood this, meaning that the first volume was just the formula to follow by the book, while the second volume taught one how to fundamentally learn alchemy.
"Right now, I can only give you some first-grade Spirit Pills to nourish you and extend your life for a bit longer. You and your family should all come with me to Da Rong Island," Li Zhirui agreed to the woman's request, considering the Jade Slip.
Since she had been able to stay safe and sound in Yunping State for so many years, it was likely that Medicine King Valley hadn't found her whereabouts, so taking her family to Da Rong Island shouldn't cause any trouble.
"I will take you to the Spirit Boat first, and come back for the rest later," he said. The woman's body was fragile like a jade artifact full of cracks and on the verge of shattering, so for safety, Li Zhirui could only take her alone, while the other three could be brought in one trip.
"Thank you, fellow daoist!" The woman smiled gratefully and said to the hunter, radiating despair and sadness, "Hulang, please wait at home with Wan'er and Hao'er for a moment."
Seeing this, Li Zhirui used his mana to lift the woman and slowly headed out of the city.
About a quarter of an hour later, he managed to get her onto the Spirit Boat and placed her in an empty room in the cabin.
"Zhirui, what is this?" Li Shilian was taken aback, asking without understanding.
"I'll explain later," Li Zhirui said, and then he jumped down from the Spirit Boat and sped back to Baishan County.
This time he moved much quicker, and in just half a quarter of an hour, he had brought the hunter and his two sons onto the Spirit Boat.
"Your wife is in the cabin. You go in and take care of her," Li Zhirui paused and added, "If you have any needs, you can speak to the people on the boat."
