Chapter 260: Ancient Qi Smoothing Pill
Yes, purely from a technical standpoint, Zheng Tuo indeed is a bit inferior to Chen Changgui. But it cannot be denied that Chen Changgui is naturally blessed with the Samadhi True Fire, something others cannot learn. If he too had the Samadhi True Fire, then the one producing the elixir fragrance right now might not necessarily not be him!
Zheng Tuo still felt that he was stronger than Changgui by a few degrees. After all, this time it was a competition of refining the Qi Smoothing Pill. The one he refined was at least a Qi Smoothing Pill, even if Changgui refined his to perfection, it’s still not a Qi Smoothing Pill. In any case, he still won!
Zheng Tuo gritted his teeth with a sense of crisis welling up in his heart, yet outwardly he remained proud, still looking down upon Chen Changgui from the inside out.
"Although the quality of this refined product is excellent, it’s... hard to say..." someone remarked.
The onlooking classmates, who initially thought Changgui would definitely lose, were gradually becoming uncertain, given the skill on display.
Not to mention, some classmates who paid more attention to details had already recalled the rules Changgui asked the teacher about before all three had started alchemy. With this connection, their expressions of disdain already faded from their faces.
It’s known that the Huo Family is always the most well-informed about elixir-related news, whether from the source or efficacy, having the latest information. Perhaps Liuyun Sect doesn’t have such detailed recollections as the Huo Family does.
So if Changgui’s refining truly possesses all the functions of the Qi Smoothing Pill and is even better than a Qi Smoothing Pill...
The old teacher, with an excited heart and trembling hands, gently cradled the Qi Smoothing Pill. He looked at it over and over, smelled it, and in the end, even gritted his teeth, scraped a bit to taste it. Then he felt fireworks start in his mind.
"It’s true, it’s really the Ancient Qi Smoothing Pill!!" Tears filled the old teacher’s eyes, "The ancients did not deceive me! It really can achieve such efficacy!! What the books wrote, is actually true!!"
His voice couldn’t help but tremble, his hands still cradling the Qi Smoothing Pill, not daring to move, nor dare to directly pinch it, as if it was a priceless fragile item.
Changgui saw his expression and even felt a bit puzzled. Is it necessary to be like this? The manual said, although this Qi Smoothing Pill sells well, the price isn’t high, as cultivation cannot entirely rely on elixirs.
If Chen Muxue were to put it, this kind is like a cultivator’s health supplement, like vitamins.
It’s effective if you’re deficient, like many people who can’t sleep or have poor sleep quality due to lack of vitamin B. But if you’re not deficient, it might just be psychological comfort with a tiny bit of effectiveness, but eating too much might even cause kidney stones—equivalent to the accumulation of elixir toxins!
But that pertains to the past. Now, with the foundation laid by predecessors, present-day cultivators tend to be a bit lacking, like how few sects focus on spiritual power accumulation like the Immortal Sect. Most only look at levels. If your level is high, you’re great, so many rely on elixirs to level up. But now, without the Ancient Qi Smoothing Pill, they’re inexplicably stuck in a loop.
Most Qi Smoothing Pills from the Ancient Qian Ding Sect are sold to those who love fighting and practicing. The Ancient Cultivation World is too competitive, constantly draining spiritual power for cultivation, terrifying!
"Did the teacher say, Ancient Qi Smoothing Pill?" The observing classmates were somewhat baffled but vaguely understood it was something formidable.
Zheng Tuo frowned: "How is this possible?! How could this be a Qi Smoothing Pill?! Teacher, you can’t shield him just because he has connections!"
