AST 1993 - The advantage of being a nobody. Be content with what you have (2/2)
The Tiger Vitality Pills now were no longer like those from the past. The earliest Tiger Vitality Pills had only helped increase one’s strength by about 1000 Jin while the current pills could increase it by 3000 Jin. If it weren’t for the young men’s bodies not being able to handle the effects of the medicine, Qing Shui would have immediately given them the Quintuple Portion Medicines instead.
Unfortunately, he could only take it slow for the time being. One mere Tiger Vitality Pill was already enough for them to digest for a period of time. After two hours, each of them started standing up with the spirits and energies of a tiger, their eyes full of surprises. To them, 3000 Jin was an amount that was multiple folds higher than their strength.
After taking the Tiger Vitality Pill, it could be said that they had already surpassed the average person. After all, normal people would have halted their progress once their strength reached about 500 Jin. For ordinary men, the maximum strength which they were able to unleash would range from 10 to 500 Jin. 500 Jin was basically as far as what a normal person could achieve.
In their case, their strength was already around 3500 Jin. This was their first time experiencing such a significant boost in strength.
Before this, when Qing Shui had helped them train their basics through the use of Bone Strengthening Pills and Impurities Cleansing Pills, it was all for the purpose that they could have significant improvements in their strength. Apart from that, it was also to ensure that they would have a good foundation. It was very important for someone to build their foundation while cultivating. Luckily, this was Qing Shui’s forte. Particularly for people without any cultivations, once they began training, they would be able to achieve twice the results with half the efforts. A good example would be when a house was being built. Between a house which only began building its foundation after it was half-built and another one with a foundation that was already built before it even began its constructions, it was very obvious which path would be easier.
This was just the beginning. It would take a long time to nurture these young men. The things which he had accomplished today was very important. It helped them become more confident. They knew that Qing Shui was an alchemist. Across the continent, alchemist was a very precious existence. Even one of the worst alchemists would still be one of the most highly-regarded existence in his circle.
After a week, Lan Lingfeng and the others came along with the Thirteenth Prince. By following Qing Shui, they could at least improve their strength a lot faster. As of now, they could already take part in battles alongside Qing Shui. Even in Great Shang City, they were standing on the highest class circle.
In just a moment, Qing Shui already had a few people who had entered the circles with that level of strength. It wouldn’t be long before the entire Great Shang City learned about the presence of the mysterious Imperial Cuisine Hall. It didn’t seem to be inferior even to both Shang Clan and Lang Clan, which were the peak existence across Great Shang City.
This was still far away from what Qing Shui wanted. Because of his formidable medical expertise, he wanted Imperial Cuisine Hall to become an extraordinary existence. Even if the Imperial Cuisine Hall only had normal people looking after it, he wanted to make sure that it would still become an existence which even the most peak clans wouldn’t dare to look down on.
For the time being, the people in charge of collecting medicines in the Imperial Cuisine Hall had gotten themselves a few apprentices. There were five in total. They were all those with the least talents among the 45 people. Basically, they wouldn’t make a living taking the path of cultivations. Hence, Qing Shui immediately let them took the Xiantian Golden Pellet so that they could help Qing Ci in the Imperial Cuisine Hall.
By achieving Xiantian Realm, the apprentices managed to surpass those with good talents immediately. However, they were also made aware that for the rest of their lifetime, it would be hard to see any more improvements in their strength. Nevertheless, they were contented for now. They already had three times as much life force as an ordinary man. Xiantian warriors… It was not only something which they wouldn’t have dreamt about, but they also might not even be able to do so much as meet one. Yet now, they have all turned in to one, and this was all given by Qing Shui.
“Thank you, master!” They started kneeling down and shown gratitude to him.
Qing Shui didn’t try to stop them. It was a miracle for them, being able to show respect a person like him. Truthfully speaking, they weren’t supposed to even be qualified as his disciples. Nevertheless, they were thankful for this opportunity. Being nobodies also had its own good points. They get satisfied very easily.
Qing Ci was now able to use her Meridians Knocking Soul Pulling. Though she was still a bit unfamiliar with it, it could already be put to use. Even though it hadn’t been too long, Qing Ci was completely different to how she was before. A part of it had to do with the fact that she had studied a bit of medicine before. Still, it was thanks to her innate talent that she had managed to learn it in such a short time.
Furthermore, she was also being nurtured by Qing Shui. By meeting Qing Shui, she was able to realize her potential and work to the best of her abilities. This was the most important event.
