Chapter 93: Five-Way Spirit Contract Altar materials!
“Qi and Blood Pills?” Song Shuhang’s eyes lit up, it was really an unexpected surprise! He hadn’t thought that he would be able to get the Qi and Blood Pills so early, before he took on the mission of ‘receiving White True Monarch’. Song Shuhang had even thought that it was an extravagant hope for him to get Qi and Blood Pills at this stage.
“Your luck is pretty good.” Said Medicine Master.
Come to think of it, North River’s Loose Pract.i.tioner had used Qi and Blood Pills and cultivation techniques to entice Song Shuhang into accepting the mission of receiving White True Monarch. Yet, in the blink of an eye, Song Shuhang had already obtained Qi and Blood Pills, though their quant.i.ty was still too low……
It was the legendary ‘you reap what you sow’… After acc.u.mulating so much good karma over the years, perhaps it had finally paid off for Song Shuhang?
However, upon thinking back, it was within reason.
The dead Altar Master was a 2nd Stage cultivator.
Altar Master had no need for Body Tempering Liquid, that was just something he used to reward his subordinates.
Although Qi and Blood Pills were mainly used by 1st Stage cultivators, they could also be used to recover a 2nd Stage cultivator’s true qi. That Altar Master was likely one of the poorer cultivators. He couldn’t attain the more precious Qi Amalgamation Pill, so he could only make do with Qi and Blood Pills.
Moreover, Altar Master had a cautious character. The things that were considered precious to him would all be carried with him everywhere he went.
In the end, they all fell into Song Shuhang’s hands.
“Qi and Blood Pills. A single pill can help me recover all my qi and blood. With two bottles, I should be able to use it for some time, right?” Song Shuhang asked.
Medicine Master nodded and said, “As long as you don’t cultivate all day and night, it should last for a while. Furthermore, the quality of these Qi and Blood Pills isn’t bad, you can use a single pill several times.”
“So I won’t lack Qi and Blood Pills in the near future?!” Song Shuhang’s eyes lit up again, “Senior Medicine Master, do you think I can go and back out of receiving White True Monarch now?”
“Heh heh.” Medicine Master didn’t answer him, and just made a kind yet weird laugh.
Wasn’t there’s a sentence that goes like this: Fellow daoist, you’re walking to your death, I’m not joining you?
Yep, this was the sentence!
……
……
“Alright, I was just kidding.” Song Shuhang shrugged—— two bottles of Qi and Blood Pills weren’t enough. There were only 26 pills in total. The question was whether they would last until White True Monarch came out of cultivation. This amount was merely enough to have a taste of the effects of the Qi and Blood Pills.
In the end, he took out the metal box which was as big as an A5 sized book.
Something that could be placed alongside the Body Tempering Liquid and Qi and Blood Pill can’t be inferior, right?
When picking up the box, Shuhang felt that the box was quite heavy, as if he was holding onto a dense iron plate.
“What is this?” Song Shuhang curiously opened the metal box.
Inside, there were two charred-looking wood; ten pieces of gold, green, red, blue, brown crystals; a folded piece of cloth; two bottles of strange liquid…… And all kinds of different things. Other than the piece of cloth, everything else came in pairs.
“Is this the Altar Master’s collection? I had no idea that his hobbies were so diverse. He collected a bit of anything and everything.” Song Shuhang picked through the box, but couldn’t really understand what they were for.
“Lightning-Struck Wood, Five-Way Stone, a ceremonial gown with arrays inscribed over it, Ghost Dragon Saliva… these aren’t just some oddities, they’re all treasures in the eyes of certain cultivators.” Medicine Master smiled as he explained.
“Treasures! Can they be exchanged for Qi and Blood Pills?” Song Shuhang was gleeful.
Qi and Blood Pills weren’t just able to speed up foundation building, it was also helpful in replenis.h.i.+ng qi and blood in all the main acupoints during the 1st Stage, and could even aid cultivation speed during the 1st Stage. It was one of those things that the more you have, the better. Having some in reserve is never wrong!
