Chapter 23: Initiation Stage Hopes, Pill Fully Equipped

23  Chapter 23: Initiation Stage Hopes, Pill Fully Equipped

Another early morning.

The rooster crows, fog ascends, and a long line had started to form at the street corner's pancake shop owned by an old lady.

"It's another beautiful morning!"

Zhao Huai got up from the bed, yawned, and stretched lazily.

Then he glanced at the snow-white jade-like back next to him, accompanied by a faint sound of breathing.

He couldn't help but chuckle lightly, they must've had an intensive discussion late into the night, she must be so exhausted.

Zhao Huai got dressed, freshened up, opened the door of the pawnshop, flipped the sign to "Open for Business", bought breakfast at the street corner—two meat buns and one egg—and prepared one portion for the madam as well.

Then he left home.

There were quite a few things that needed to be done today.

First, he went to a medical hall at the neighboring east alley, before entering, he shouted:

"Brother Yan, I'm here to visit you!"

Yan Jing, known as Sai Yanwang, came out of the dispensary with a smile holding a piece of medicinal herb.

"Oh, it's Brother Zhao. It's pretty rare for a married man to take a trip like this, what brings you here?"

"Stop it with the banter! Our relationship is not like that." Zhao Huai, showing a disdain expression, refuted.

"Speak up, what favor do you need this time? You're always up to no good unless you're up to no good, don't you think I already know you well?"

Yan Jing laughed and scolded, he understood Zhao Huai very well.

"Help me look at this, what kind of medicine is in this porcelain bottle."

Zhao Huai took out a porcelain bottle from black ring.

It was one of the items produced at the same time as the parchment roll and the unidentified treasured sword.

After cultivating the parchment roll, they found out it was the Three Thousand Thunderbolt Technique.

Only after using the unidentified sword, did they realize it was a magical weapon.

So, he had a feeling that the medicine in the bottle wouldn't be simple.

So, very early in the morning, he brought it over for evaluation.

While Jinzhou indeed has many varied pill shops, he didn't fully trust them.

There are too many scandals now about unethical alchemists practicing fake medicine, shortchanging on the amount, and withholding medicinal herbs.

As for Yan Jing, besides being a doctor, he was also a genuine professional alchemist, leading a group of eight, holding multiple positions.

Even if he couldn't concoct any precious pills, he still recognized most of them.

23:12

A professional is always better than an amateur. To Zhao Huai, pills all look similar, just like a brown mud ball.

Yan Jing took the porcelain bottle, opened the plug, gently waved it in his hand, took a sniff, and immediately furrowed his brows.

"Please wait a moment."

Then he went into the dispensary and researched in silence.

While waiting, Zhao Huai wasn't idle either.

He took out a glittering jade slip from the black ring and started to study it.

This was the Insanity Technique that he competed for in yesterday's auction with the four masked men.

Although in the end he didn't figure out where the four demons had gone, the cultivation technique was in his hands. Why should he care about a few little demons who dare not blatantly cause trouble in the human world?

Inputting True Qi into the jade slip, line after line of tadpole-like small characters appeared. Firstly, the densely packed text was very discouraging.

Then there was the content, which was very obscure and difficult for ordinary people to understand.

But Zhao Huai was different, the destiny of the [Heavenly Heart Wisdom Eyes] quietly activated, as if a gleam of light appeared in his eyes.

Letting him see through the obscure text in front of him.

Instead of saying it's Heavenly Heart Wisdom Eyes, it's more like speed reading with quantum efficiency.

In just a while of reading, Zhao Huai had already got a rough idea of the theory and function of the Insanity Technique.

This Insanity Technique is a spiritual power cultivation technique that integrates attack and defense.

Beginners can form a self-protecting barrier in the mind, and experienced practitioners can intimidate all external enemies from outside with spiritual power. When practiced to a great level, it can form terrifying coercion.

Using the word "insanity" to describe it, it can be said to be very apt.

As for why this cultivation technique attracted the attention of the demons, Zhao Huai was unsure.

In an instant, Zhao Huai began to attempt to construct a reliable spiritual barrier in his mind.

This can prevent enemies from directly invading the brain and attack his mind.

It wasn't as difficult as imagined, and Zhao Huai accomplished the first step very quickly.

The second step is to release his powerful spiritual power outward, forming a big net to attack, but Zhao Huai was still laking in terms of spiritual power strength.

He estimated that if he could breakthrough to the Initiation Stage, it would be very easy to accomplish.

"Brother Zhao, be honest, where did you get this medicine from?"After some time, Yan Jing's voice finally rang out from the pharmacy.

However, Yan Jing's expression seemed somewhat unusual, extremely solemn.

"Bought from the pawnshop, just trying my luck, what's wrong?"

Seeing his expression, Zhao Huai's heart skipped a beat, thinking, it's not some nasty poison, is it?

"You've hit the jackpot!"

Yan Jing finally revealed a brilliant smile.

"Don't scare me like that."

Zhao Huai finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked, "What kind of medicine is inside?"

Yan Jing smiled slightly: "All good stuff, this porcelain bottle is filled with various kinds of pills, come have a look."

He poured out the pills and began to explain one by one.

"This fragrant, large pill is called a vigor-gathering pill. It can improve the True Vigor in the body of a cultivator in the Initiation Stage, greatly enhancing magic power."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Huai frowned, saying, "But I haven't initiated yet, so it's of little use to me for now."

"Don't be hasty." Yan Jing chuckled, pouring out the second golden pill, which was crystal clear and translucent.

It seemed to be wrapped in a layer of fog, appearing quite extraordinary.

"What is this?"

Zhao Huai couldn't resist asking.

Yan Jing's eyes sparkled, he said word by word:

"Initiation Pill."

"Initiation Pill?"

Zhao Huai suddenly brightened up.

He then directly grasped the golden pill in front of him, held it in his palm, and examined it closely.

As everyone knows, once you have an Initiation Pill, you can break through to the Initiation Realm smoothly.

However, the Initiation Pill is priceless, regardless of how much money you have, you can't buy it.

Initiation Pill, made from thirty-one precious spiritual grass and medicinal herbs like jade marrow mushroom, purple monkey flower, and heavenly spirit fruit.

Only some official Great Immortal Cultivation Sects and senior alchemists can refine it.

But there is an iron law within the Immortal Cultivation Sects, which is to absolutely not interfere in Mortal World matters, so the Initiation Pill is hard to circulate.

Every time one came out, it would be madly snatched by the world!

After all, having a powerful cultivator in the Initiation Stage is a quantum leap for any aristocratic family.

"It's actually Initiation Pill, this trade is indeed worth it."

Zhao Huai said with a smile all over his face.

He felt that just one Initiation Pill alone was worth more than all the others combined.

"It's not over yet."

Yan Jing faintly laughed, and then he took out other pills one after another.

"The big rejuvenation pill, a panacea that works wonders for both internal and external injuries. No matter how serious the internal and external injuries are, if you take this pill, it can greatly ease the injuries and save lives, even if it can't bring the dead back to life and fully recover instantly."

"Qi and blood pill can replenish a large amount of Qi and blood force. It is usually taken immediately after a blood essence fighting battle."

"Detoxifying Pill can neutralize hundreds of poisons. Regular poison, just a sip of water mixed with the pill, can cure the disease. Taking it directly, any strong poison can be neutralized."

"Mind-pacified Pill, after taking it, it can get rid of the distractions in your mind and achieve unity of mind and spirit. It is usually taken before retreating."

After introducing them all, Yan Jing put all the pills back into the porcelain bottle, threw it to Zhao Huai, and said leisurely: "There are roughly these many kinds, there is also a scarlet pill I can't identify. You can research it slowly in the future."

Zhao Huai, holding the pills, couldn't stop smiling.

This was a real fortune, full of pills. In the short term, there was basically no need to worry about the problem of pills.

Seeing Zhao Huai's expression, Yan Jing curled his lips and teased:

"How many Initiation Stage cultivators did you rob? No normal person would sell you so many precious pills unless they were a fool."

"Well, isn't it a fool after all?"

Zhao Huai smiled slightly and didn't say more.

"Clear the way! Clear the way!"

"Don't block the way!"

At this time, a shouting voice from outside the clinic as well as the squeaky sound of wheel rolling attracted the attention of both of them.

Zhao Huai looked closely, it was a full caravan passing by, the wooden cart was packed tightly, not allowing any gaps.

Around the caravan, there were many bodyguards protecting it, judging from their eyes, each of them was stern and their weapons and equipment were very sophisticated, obviously not ordinary people.

Zhao Huai wondered: "This caravan looks quite odd. What are they escorting that can't be seen by people?"
