Although Taoist Duobao was not a disciple of Saint Taiqing, he was a disciple of Master Tongtian after all, and his achievements in alchemy were not low.

But compared with Shennong, there is obviously a certain gap. Shennong discovered the help of elixirs without even the deliberate guidance of Duobao Taoist.

The human race has been refining elixirs on a large scale, but these elixirs have always been provided to practitioners for the purpose of cultivating the strength of human masters.

Dihuang Shennong innovated on this basis, significantly improving the quality and effectiveness of these elixirs.

But in the process, Shennong also discovered a problem. Ordinary people among the human race were very fragile. If they encountered any disease, there was no other way to treat it.

Although advanced Taoist methods can save these ordinary humans, the number of ordinary people is too large and they are already spread all over the wild world. Using Taoist methods is like a drop in the bucket.

It was also because of this that the Emperor of Earth Shennong somehow found his own path and wanted to use alchemy to find a way to help ordinary humans fight diseases.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find the method, and he didn't even have a direction at all.

With a lot of questions in his mind, Emperor Di Shennong could only find his master Duobao Taoist and ask him his questions.

In his opinion, his master is the eldest disciple of the Jiejiao Sect, who studied under the master Tongtian, and can answer his questions.

"This is a question that I cannot answer!" Taoist Duobao shook his head.

If it comes to saving the human race, there are actually many ways, such as using Taoism, he can instantly make countless ordinary people free from illness and disaster.

It is also possible to differentiate powerful elixirs to cure countless sick humans.

We can find a way for ordinary people to fight the disease, but even he has no emotions.

The art of making elixirs was not his forte, and there were too many restrictions, so he naturally could not answer Shennong's question.

"Is there really no way? Teacher, the human race is suffering from diseases, and I have vowed to save ordinary humans from illness!" Shennong said.

He has already made clear his own path, but unfortunately his abilities are limited and he has no other methods.

He thought his teacher would have a way, so he placed his hopes on his teacher.

But he also didn't expect that his teacher, who was a Daluo Jinxian and a disciple personally taught by a saint, was also helpless.

Hearing Shennong's words, Xuandu's heart moved. He understood very well that this matter was related to Shennong's enlightenment.

Almost instantly, he thought of someone who could guide Shennong.

“Although I don’t have a solution, it doesn’t mean that others don’t have one. You can go find the first leader Yang An!” said Master Xuandu.

He really had no way, but he believed that Yang An must have a way. That's why Yang An was only a Golden Immortal, but it was Yang An who guided Shennong in making elixirs.

Moreover, since they came to the human race, all matters were arranged by Yang An, and letting Shennong come into contact with elixirs obviously had a deep meaning.

He understood that the questions Shennong asked were actually related to the path to enlightenment.

What's more, Yang An once helped Fuxi to prove his truth, so this leader of the human race must be prepared for Shennong.

"If it's the leader, there might really be a way!" Shennong's eyes lit up.

Naturally, he was no stranger to the first leader of the human race and had great respect for him.

Moreover, among the human race, Yang An’s contributions have been constantly praised.

Although he took over as the new leader of the human race, he knew that Yang An's status among the human race was higher than his.

But he still had some doubts. Even a Daluo Jinxian like his master had no solution. Could the leader really solve it? With a skeptical attitude, Duobao Taoist and Dihuang Shennong went to Yang An's residence again to visit Yang An.

"This matter is difficult, but it is very simple as long as you change your mindset!" Yang An explained.

The question of Emperor Di Shennong is indeed related to achieving enlightenment. In the eyes of many powerful people, such a question is almost unsolvable.

Not to mention Taoist Duobao, even if you ask the great magician Xuandu who is good at making elixirs, I'm afraid he won't have any suggestions.

The reason for this is that the higher the level of cultivation, the more one thinks about problems from the perspective of a cultivator.

However, creatures with advanced cultivation have already gone beyond the concept of ordinary creatures, but ordinary humans still make up the majority of the human race, and humans with advanced cultivation are only a minority.

In any case, the refining of elixirs requires a certain threshold, and the herbs that ordinary people can use are no longer of any use to practitioners, let alone those powerful people above the Golden Immortal level.

Only by truly thinking from the perspective of ordinary people can we develop methods that are suitable for ordinary people.

"Leader, what you mean is that we are standing too high?" Shennong said.

When he met Yang An this time, he just wanted to give it a try and didn't have too high expectations.

However, he had sensed another meaning from the leader's words.

He understood that the leader must know the answer to his question.

“In the universe, there is the interaction of yin and yang, and the rotation of the five elements, but there is also the opposition of yin and yang, and the mutual restraint of the five elements.

Mutual promotion and mutual restraint are also the foundation of the great way of heaven and earth. The answer you want lies in it. "Yang An explained.

The principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint of all things in the universe is the core of medicine.

Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs to actually utilize the principle of mutual promotion and mutual restraint to understand the characteristics of various medicines, so as to achieve the purpose of curing diseases and saving lives.

In his opinion, Shennong, the Emperor of Earth, should also use the principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint to find his own way to enlightenment.

"All things are interdependent and mutually exclusive? Please give me some advice, leader!" Shennong looked serious.

After hearing the leader's words, he seemed to have grasped something, and countless thoughts emerged in his mind.

He even wanted to try it out immediately, but he knew that if he tried rashly, he would still take some detours.

Although the leader was only a Golden Immortal, just two sentences made him understand a lot of truths and even almost found his own way.

How could he miss such a rare opportunity? Naturally, he wanted to ask more.

"Knowing the characteristics of all things is the key to studying their mutual promotion and mutual restraint." Yang An said.

If Shennong wanted to achieve enlightenment, he would be halfway successful as long as he understood the characteristics of all things.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

This is also the significance of Shennong tasting hundreds of herbs. Only by understanding it first can we go further on this basis.

While speaking, he had already sent the guest away. Shennong's guidance was enough, and the future still depended on Shennong himself.

"Thank you for your guidance, leader. I will try to understand everything in the world!" Shennong expressed his gratitude sincerely.

At this moment, he finally grasped the core of Yang An's words.

With just a few words, he had already realized what his future path should be. "All things are interdependent and mutually exclusive. You are truly extraordinary!" Taoist Duobao exclaimed.

As a disciple of a saint, he often received guidance from the saint. What Yang An just said had already pointed directly to the core of the great way.

This human leader was truly extraordinary. Facing Shennong's questions, he was well prepared and helped Shennong answer his questions and resolve his doubts.

Next, with the guidance of this human leader, he doesn't need to worry too much about Shennong's affairs.

This is indeed the case. The Emperor of Earth Shennong was originally extraordinary. After Yang An's guidance, he has understood everything.

After leaving Yang An's residence, he closed his own cultivation and walked on the primitive land.

He began to understand everything in the world, from the various precious natural treasures to the weeds that can be seen everywhere on the roadside.

It would take a long time to record the characteristics of all things, but he never tired of doing it.

The more he understood, the more he realized how important the leader's guidance was.

The years passed silently and slowly. Compared with the smooth enlightenment of Emperor Fuxi, the path of Emperor Shennong had some twists and turns but not too many ups and downs.

As Shennong continued to understand everything in the universe, his own path continued to improve. Even when he closed his cultivation, his own cultivation was constantly improving.

After years of exploration, Shennong has already traveled most of the way in the prehistoric land, and his cultivation has reached the peak of the Golden Immortal, and he is only one step away from becoming a Daluo Golden Immortal.

"The Earth Emperor Shennong's attainment of enlightenment is just around the corner, and he is not far from completing his mission!" Taoist Duobao exclaimed.

He has always been following Shennong and accompanying him on his journeys across the vast land.

Along the way, he admired the human leader Yang An more and more. With just a few words, Yang An pointed out the path to enlightenment for Shennong.

Moreover, even he could not underestimate such a path. Shennong was different from Fuxi. Shennong was not the reincarnation of some powerful person.

As a powerful man at the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm and a disciple of a saint, he naturally knew how precious the road that led directly to the quasi-saint realm was.

In addition, the path that Yang An showed Zhao Gongming not long ago, these are already two quasi-saint paths.

The ancient world has gone through countless years, but there are only a few quasi-saints after all. This is enough to show how extraordinary Yang An is.

Such a person, even if he is only a Golden Immortal now, will definitely grow to an extremely high level in the future.

Moreover, since Yang An was able to guide others on the path to becoming a quasi-saint, how could he not prepare a path to becoming a quasi-saint for himself?

Today, he finally understood why his master, Master Tongtian, valued Yang An so much, this leader of the human race.

He also understood why his master had specifically instructed him to follow Yang An's arrangements before leaving.

Time passed again, and tens of thousands of years had passed since Shennong traveled across the wild land. Under the protection of Taoist Duobao, Shennong finally traveled across the wild land.

After traveling all over the ancient land, Shennong compiled all the recorded characteristics of all things into a book. After returning to the human race, he began to study the true meaning of mutual generation and mutual restraint.

Shennong then began to conduct experiments himself to study the mutual restraint between these herbs and diseases.

Duobao Taoist, who accompanied Shennong, knew that it was only a matter of time before Shennong achieved enlightenment.

On this day, Shennong finally sorted out everything and became a Taoist. The human race also had a new profession of doctor who could save the dying and heal the wounded. (End of this chapter)
