31 Potion of Life (1/2)
The potion of life in the Interstellar Era's cultivation world was a kind of extremely famous but very common genetic potion. There were various kinds of nutritious substances within, including rare energy ions. Within it, all vital elements needed for human's body could be found. It was a mystical product created by humanity's study of genetics.
If a sickly person was to consume it, that person would be able to swiftly recover and become someone with a strong and muscular body. Of course, the prerequisite was that one had to be able to endure the powerful medicinal strength of the potion of life.
For common mortals that had not awakened their mythological genes, their life had not undergone any evolution yet. If they drank this, the powerful medicinal strength of the potion would instantly cause them to explode due to being too overwhelmingly packed with energy.
They would really explode…
This was not a joke. Something like this had happened before and there had been quite a few cases.
There would always be people who were completely ignorant about cultivation, yet they wanted to ascend to the sky with a single step, choosing to drink the potion of life. However, they had no idea that their bodies weren't able to endure this, and all of them had extremely dire endings.
Only cultivators were qualified to drink the potion of life. Also, the so-called nutrient fluids were none other than an extremely simplified version of the potion of life, a liquid food that was mass-produced for ordinary humans to replenish their nutrients.
”Where can I buy potions of life?” Feng Lin asked the virtual beauty sales assistant.
”Potions of life? This item is easily found. At the west-southern corner of the 256th level, the potions of life can be found in the automatic shop there!” The virtual beauty smiled, instantly providing him with the answer, giving him an exact location.
”Alright, let's go over there.” Feng Lin nodded. He didn't delay and moved towards the elevator with the virtual assistant and arrived at the 256th level.
At the west-southern corner, a fully automatic and intelligent shop appeared before his eyes. Everything here was controlled by the A.I., and there were no salespersons around. The customers could pay directly by scanning their identity microchip. It was extremely convenient.
The door opened silently and Feng Lin entered, sweeping his gaze around. He discovered that various types of potions of life were stacked here neatly in rows, so many that it caused his eyes to be dazzled.
Red, green, blue, purple...there were all sorts of colored potion of life that had different flavors. The prices were different too, ranging from 1,000 to 10,000 star coins.
Feng Lin thought about it. He then asked again, ”Why are the prices different although they are all potions of life?”
The virtual beauty had an intelligence level not lower than humans. She instantly distinguished that Feng Lin was someone who came to the Thousand Gold Building for the first time.
She was an A.I. and had no emotions. A polite smile appeared on her face as she spoke gently and explained meticulously, ”The potions of life are only a general term for gene potions. According to their medicinal effect and their taste, they can be classified into various types. The disparity in their prices would naturally reflect the different kinds and grades. These potions here are one of the few gene potions that can be artificially synthesized by humans but they can be separated into different grades based on the synthesizing methods as well!”
”Oh?” Feng Lin was interested.
He had always assumed that there would only be a single method to create these gene potions, and he didn't expect that they had different grades. This was the first time he heard of such a thing and he patiently continued to listen.
All these were common knowledge about cultivation resources. He knew nothing about them in the past. Hence, he wanted to use this chance to increase his understanding.
