Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

Hearing Yao Lao's interested tone, Qin Yi didn't dare to delay and hurriedly replied, "To be honest, Senior, the reason I can recognize these medicinal herbs is because I happened to obtain a copy of 'Compendium of Materia Medica' in my early years, which listed these precious herbs in Senior's herb garden."

"Compendium of Materia Medica?" Hearing Qin Yi say this name, Yao Lao's voice suddenly rose, as if extremely excited, and he asked again, "Then, is this 'Compendium of Materia Medica' still on you? Could you lend it to this old man for a look?"

"Of course!" Seeing Yao Lao's excited expression, Qin Yi became even more curious. However, she didn't think much about it. With a flip of her hand, she took out a somewhat tattered ancient book, with the two characters 'Qian Cao' written on it in crooked handwriting.

"Senior, this is the 'Compendium of Materia Medica' that I obtained. Please take a look," Qin Yi said, holding the ancient book in both hands, towards the direction of the waterfall.

Just as she finished speaking, the silken golden thread from before shot out again, rolled up the ancient book in Qin Yi's hand, and flew back into the cave hidden behind the waterfall.

Not long after, Yao Lao's excited laughter echoed again: "Haha... It really is the 'Compendium of Materia Medica'! Little girl, you've done this old man a great favor this time."

"Ah? What do you mean, Senior?" Hearing Yao Lao's strange words, Qin Yi was obviously confused and asked in puzzlement.

"Haha, look at me, I'm too excited. Let me put it this way, besides medical skills, this old man has another great hobby, which is collecting various medical classics. In the past ten thousand years, this old man's collection can be said to be comprehensive, but the only thing missing is this volume of 'Compendium of Materia Medica'. Therefore, this old man once swore that whoever can find this book for me, then this old man will fulfill any one of their wishes. And now it seems that this destined person is none other than you."

Facing Qin Yi's confusion, Yao Lao first laughed loudly, and then explained in this way. At the same time, after pausing for a while, he added: "How about it? As long as you are willing to give this 'Compendium of Materia Medica' to this old man, then this old man will fulfill one of your wishes. Are you willing?"

"Willing, willing! If this ancient book can help Senior, it would be my honor. If Senior likes it, please just take it," Qin Yi said with great excitement after hearing Yao Lao's words, nodding immediately.

Although this book had been with Qin Yi since she could remember, if it could be exchanged for a promise from Yao Lao, then it would be more than worth it. Qin Yi would naturally not let go of such a great opportunity, so she immediately agreed.

Yao Lao seemed to have expected Qin Yi's decision, and nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, then I will accept this book. Feel free to speak, what do you want this old man to do for you?"

"This…"

Happiness came too suddenly, making Qin Yi's mind unable to turn around. Subconsciously, she looked in Chen Tian's direction.

As if sensing Qin Yi's gaze, Chen Tian immediately smiled at her, giving her some courage.

Seeing Chen Tian's smile, Qin Yi felt even more confident. After taking a deep breath, she took a step forward and said with a serious expression: "Senior, it's like this, some strange changes have happened to me, making me unable to condense spiritual energy anymore. So, if possible, I hope Senior can help me diagnose it. I wonder if Senior can grant this request?"

After speaking, Qin Yi looked up in the direction of the waterfall, anxiously waiting for the other party's answer.

At the thought of being able to cultivate again, Qin Yi's heart was immediately filled with intense joy, because in this way, she could be with Chen Tian forever.

"Chen-dage, this is really great, isn't it?" Qin Yi looked at Chen Tian, smiling like a flower.

"Yes, it's really great." Although Chen Tian also replied with a smile, that smile seemed somewhat weak.

However, Qin Yi, who was in a state of excitement, seemed to be completely unaware. At this time, she was unfolding beautiful fantasies about her future life.

"By the way, little girl, seeing that you are very familiar with medicinal herbs, coincidentally, this old man has a peculiar medicinal herb here. I wonder if you recognize it?" Just as Qin Yi fell into fantasy, Yao Lao's voice came again faintly.

Qin Yi was in high spirits, so she said somewhat excitedly: "Alright, Senior, please take it out. I want to see what kind of peculiar medicinal herb it is."

"Okay, then catch it!"

Yao Lao smiled strangely, and then a light blue flower, wrapped in a ball of spiritual light, flew out from behind the waterfall, floating towards Qin Yi's side.

When this flower had just landed in Qin Yi's hand, the spiritual light protecting it disappeared quickly with a "poof" sound. Then, a strange fragrance drifted out, drilling straight into Qin Yi's nose.

"What a fragrance!"

Smelling this refreshing fragrance, Qin Yi's mood seemed to be even better. Then, she raised the flower in her hand and carefully examined it.

She saw that this flower was about three inches long, with three faint blue petals blooming on it, and a vermilion stamen hidden in the middle of the petals. The strange fragrance emanated from this stamen.

However, what made Qin Yi feel strange was that the more she stared at this flower, the more dizzy she felt, and even her body began to sway.

At this time, Qin Yi only felt that her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and she wanted to sleep more and more. Her consciousness also began to gradually dissipate.

But at this moment, Qin Yi seemed to have thought of something and suddenly panicked: "You're plotting against me! This is a Beau…"

However, before she could finish speaking, an irresistible drowsiness surged up, making Qin Yi unable to support herself any longer. In the end, she lost all consciousness, and her body tilted to the side.

At this critical moment, Chen Tian rushed over as if he had predicted it, hugged the falling Qin Yi in his arms, and let her head rest on his lap, so that Qin Yi would feel more comfortable.

But what was strange was that with Chen Tian's personality, if anyone was detrimental to Qin Yi, then he would be like a mad bull, vowing to tear this person apart.

But at this time, Chen Tian, seeing that Qin Yi had fallen for Yao Lao's plot, not only did not show any anger, but his face was very calm, as if he had expected all of this.

After taking a deep breath, Chen Tian took the blue flower from Qin Yi's hand, sniffed it lightly, and said calmly towards the direction of the waterfall: "If I'm not mistaken, this flower should be a Beauty Flower, right?"
