Chapter 41 - Pure Spirit Pill
"The Warrior Association is divided into four major sections. In addition to the registration office for new warriors we just visited, there are also sections for elixirs, weapons, and tasks. Where would you like to go first?"
Yun Wei asked as she led Nangong Ya and Yang Xie.
Yang Xie thought back to the dangerous plants they had encountered in the wild—the man-eating plant, the blood-sucking vine... These plants were not only hazardous but also poisonous.
What worried Yang Xie even more was that they had been drugged by the pig-headed masked man without realizing it.
If it weren't for the shadow soldier who had woken him up, this situation could have been much worse.
"We should go to the elixir section first," Yang Xie suggested.
"Alright."
"There are many types of elixirs in the elixir section. The Warrior Association mainly sells elixirs ranging from level one to level three. These can be roughly divided into three categories:
Elixirs that enhance cultivation, such as the Naling Pill and Juling Pill;
Elixirs that specialize in healing and detoxification, such as Zhixue San and Baidujie;
Elixirs for breaking through realms, like the Pojing Pill.
I'm not sure what you need, but I can recommend a few for you," Yun Wei explained.
Yang Xie didn't need elixirs for cultivation. With the 1001 shadow soldiers helping him with his cultivation, he was already satisfied with his progress.
As for medicinal herbs, Yang Xie knew they could be dangerous. He didn't want to take any chances with unknown side effects. Furthermore, he didn't need any breakthrough elixirs at this time.
"Can you focus on the elixirs for healing and detoxification? And please also give me an idea of their prices," Yang Xie asked.
Yun Wei nodded and began her explanation.
"Many warriors buy healing and detoxification elixirs because they often encounter injuries or poisons while hunting exotic animals or completing tasks. The prices vary depending on the grade of the pill.
First-grade pills usually cost between 1,000 and 10,000 Da Zhou coins, while second-grade pills range from 10,000 to 50,000 Da Zhou coins.
For first-grade healing pills, I recommend the medium-grade Yangjing Pill. It's effective for both internal and external injuries, and it's priced at 5,000 Da Zhou coins. For detoxification, I suggest the first-grade medium-grade Lingqing Pill, which can clear out less toxic poisons and costs 6,000 Da Zhou coins.
For second-grade healing pills, there's the top-grade Hemostatic Powder, which costs 10,000 Da Zhou coins and is useful for large wounds and severe bleeding. As for detoxification, I recommend the second-grade medium-grade Baidujie, which can neutralize most wild poisons. It's a bit pricier, costing 30,000 Da Zhou coins.
These pills are quite popular among warriors and are frequently purchased."
Yang Xie and Nangong Ya followed Yun Wei through the pill section. Upon seeing the vast array of pills, Yang Xie's phobia kicked in. Fortunately, Yun Wei was there to guide him.
"Sister Yun Wei, just get one bottle of Baidujie and one bottle of Zhixuesan. There are too many choices, and I don't feel like picking myself," Yang Xie said, giving up on choosing the pills.
"Xiao Li, please bring one bottle of Baidujie and one bottle of Zhixuesan!" Yun Wei called to a girl in the pill section.
The staff in the elixir section all wore uniforms with a "Dan" character on their chests, indicating they worked in the alchemy area.
Yun Wei seemed to be quite familiar with Xiao Li, as she quickly made the request.
"Sister Yun Wei, here are the Baidujie and Zhixuesan you asked for!" Xiao Li replied efficiently, taking out two bottles from the counter and handing them to Yun Wei.
"Thank you, Xiao Li!" Yun Wei smiled, accepting the bottles and handing them to Yang Xie.
"These are the Baidujie and Zhixuesan pills. The Baidujie bottle contains ten pills, while the Zhixuesan is for external use."
Yang Xie carefully examined the two bottles and then had a thought.
"Sister Yun Wei, can Baidujie work against strong poisons?" he asked.
"Poisons? It works on ordinary ones, but special ones are beyond its ability," Yun Wei responded before Xiao Li chimed in.
"Does it work on something like Dream of Bauhinia Tears?" Yang Xie pressed further.
"Dream of Bauhinia Tears? That's a very special poison. It can only be countered by the juice from Bauhinia vines. Ordinary antidotes, including Baidujie, are ineffective," Xiao Li explained.
A middle-aged man emerged from behind Xiao Li and spoke up with surprise when he heard Yang Xie mention Dream of Bauhinia Tears.
"Supervisor!" Xiao Li called out to the man.
Yang Xie turned to the middle-aged man, who had appeared suddenly. He assumed the man was the supervisor of the elixir section.
"Ordinary antidotes won't help, but there is a special antidote," the supervisor, Wang Siliu, explained.
"Special antidote? What is it?" Yang Xie asked, intrigued.
"The Pure Spirit Pill—a third-grade middle-grade pill. It's effective against powerful poisons like Dream of Bauhinia Tears," Wang Siliu said.
"How much does it cost?" Yang Xie inquired.
"One hundred thousand Da Zhou coins," Wang Siliu replied.
"..." Yang Xie couldn't help but feel like a pauper.
"How did you learn about Dream of Bauhinia Tears?" Wang Siliu suddenly asked.
Yang Xie hesitated. It wasn't something he could just tell anyone.
"I heard about it from my elders at home," he said casually.
"Ah, from your elders? I see. May I ask your name?" Wang Siliu pressed further.
Yang Xie, feeling a bit uncomfortable with the questioning, gestured toward Nangong Ya.
"Do you see this beautiful lady? Her last name is Nangong."
"Ah, the Nangong family!" Wang Siliu seemed to understand. "No wonder you know about the Dream of Bauhinia Tears. It is a poison commonly used by the evil followers of the Alien God
