Chapter 520: Noble Imperial Fragrance Pill (1/2)

Chapter 520: n.o.ble Imperial Fragrance Pill

Three days later, Xiao Chen, who was lying on the ground, finally woke up.

“Cough…! Cough…!”

Xiao Chen opened his eyes weakly and coughed heavily. He struggled to sit up from the ground.

When Xiao Chen checked his body with his consciousness, he could not help a bitter smile on his pale face.

Although he had released the huge Spiritual Energy through his twenty-four acupoints, the vast remnant Spiritual Energy still caused a lot of damage in his body.

Xiao Chen’s heart, liver, spleen, kidney, large colon, small colon, stomach, and gallbladder…all his internal organs were severely damaged. Every single movement caused him intense pain.

Fortunately, Xiao Chen’s meridians were not severely injured. They had been tempered twice before, by the Dragon and Tiger Body Sculpting Art and the Firmament Body Tempering Art.

Xiao Chen’s meridians were already as resilient as Frost Iron, as hard as Heavenly Mountain Stones, and at the same time, as gentle as autumn water, and very flexible. This combination meant that it was hard for them to receive any true damage.

However, the most disappointing thing was that the Essence in Xiao Chen’s body dried up completely. It had completely drained with nothing remaining. He could not even circulate some Essence to ease the pain.

No matter how intense a battle was, cultivators would always reserve some Essence. This was because they could only cultivate if there was Essence. They needed it to complete the cycles in the meridians to quickly replenish the Essence.

If a cultivator’s Essence ran dry completely, it would be very difficult to recover. Even the most incredible Medicinal Pill would be useless. They could only wait for the dantian to naturally generate a strand of Essence before anything could work.

This time, Xiao Chen had ruined himself. He sighed silently to himself. In the end, he could not be too reckless when cultivating.

Xiao Chen glanced at Leng Yue at the side. She was currently watching the sky calmly, as if she had not noticed Xiao Chen waking up.

“Is the sky nice to look at? I am awake already and you don’t even bother to look at me.”

Leng Yue withdrew her gaze and smiled charmingly, “How could it be? I just did not notice.”

After that, Leng Yue ran over to help Xiao Chen up. He could not stand up by himself; she could clearly feel this when she supported him. She could also see the pained expression on his face.

“Now that you are so severely injured, this experiential training will probably come to an end.”

Xiao Chen smiled when he heard this. He let go of Leng Yue’s hand and said, “End? You underestimate me. I can still afford the expenditure for this small bit of internal injuries. Don’t bother thinking of any tricks.”

Leng Yue grumbled in her heart. She was only showing concern for Xiao Chen, but he did not understand anything.

After half a day, Xiao Chen recovered his basic ability to move about. Then, Leng Yue finally understood what Xiao Chen meant by being able to afford the expenditure.

Xiao Chen spent 300,000 Medial Grade Spirit Stones to buy a bottle of Rank 9 treatment medication—the n.o.ble Imperial Fragrance Pill. It dealt specially with internal injuries and had the best effect for his condition.

The shop was operated by the Divine Dragon Palace’s subordinate merchant a.s.sociation. Cultivators were bound to get injured during experiential training. Hence, their business was booming and they had all sorts of herbs and medicines.

Buying the treatment medication was insufficient. Xiao Chen spent another 400,000 Medial Grade Spirit Stones to buy a two-thousand-year-old Life Blood Mushroom for replenis.h.i.+ng blood essence.

That day, Xiao Chen had vomited several mouthfuls of blood. Furthermore, it was not ordinary blood he vomited but blood essence.

When blood essence flourished, a person would be strong and energetic. They would also be in high spirits and feel like they could do anything. When blood essence was insufficient, their aura would be weak, their skin would be yellow, and they would become dispirited and feel lethargic.

Thus, Xiao Chen had to replenish his blood essence. Furthermore, he had to replenish a lot of it; he had to replenish it all within a short period of time. So, he was willing to spend the Spirit Stones.

After the Life Blood Mushroom, Xiao Chen spent another 300,000 Medial Grade Spirit Stones to buy a few more two-thousand-year-old Spirit Herbs with similar effects.

Even so, Xiao Chen felt his supplies were still insufficient. So he bought a few thousand-year-old Sea Cuc.u.mbers. This was a special produce of the Boundless Sea that worked very well for supporting the recovery of internal injuries. It would also enhance the effect of the n.o.ble Imperial Fragrance Pill when consumed together.

When Xiao Chen left the shop, the owner of the shop escorted him out with smiles on his face. He looked very excited.

The owner could not help his excitement. Xiao Chen spent a total of one million Medial Grade Spirit Stones in one go. That was equal to one month’s worth of sales.

Originally, with Xiao Chen’s strong physical body, he would only need some supplemental Spirit Herbs. Although his injuries were severe, he would be able to recover in a month.

However, Xiao Chen lacked time. One month meant thirty days; he could not afford to waste that time. Furthermore, he had the feeling that something big was going to happen in a few days.

Thus, Xiao Chen had to heal all his injuries in three days. So, he could only use Spirit Stones to buy time. No matter how great the price was, he had to spend it.

Leng Yue, who was beside him, wore a pink dress and a loose black-and-white robe, which hid her tail, as well as a face veil.

This way, no one would be able to figure out her ident.i.ty as an Eros Demon. This was an idea Leng Yue thought of in the past few days. This meant that she would not need to hide in the Spirit Blood Jade.

When the two returned to a newly rented courtyard, Leng Yue clicked her tongue as she said, “Young Master Xiao, I could not tell that you were this rich. No wonder you said that this was a little injury. Though I wonder, how many times can you do this? The Spirit Gathering Pearl is not that easy to absorb.”
