Volume 1 Chapter 25: Medicine

After a few hours, Randall returned with a big bag of medicinal bottles in his hands.

After he left, Claude turned his attention to the medicinal bottles that he brought back and inspected them carefully.

​​

Ten bottles of Cultivation Booster Powder, Five bottles of Protein pills, and Two Agary Root Tonics.

Claude picked up the bottles in order to examine it carefully. Aside from the Cultivation Booster Powder, which he had already used once, he inspected the other two medicines; Protein Pills and Agary Root Tonics. One protein pill would remove the need to eat or drink for one whole week after its consumption. These were usually taken by martial artists who wished to cultivate for a long period of time without taking any breaks. The dosages are to be strictly followed however, as it can be lethal if you consume it too much.

Next was the Agary Root Tonic, a tonic made from the root of the Agary tree, which helps to increase the speed at which your spiritual energy expands. It helped to gain insights into one’s spiritual energy and meridians.

Both of these medicines were extremely strict about following their dosage.

He opened the bottles and ingested all three of them in accordance with the dosages, as he sat cross legged and closed his eyes, cultivating.

All of a sudden, he felt a stream of energy traveling to his meridians, circulating inside his sea of consciousness, as it extended everywhere. This time, Claude gained a deeper understanding of his spiritual energy. Was this the effect of the Agary Root?

Gathering his thoughts, Claude circulated the Pure Iron Technique once again, while condensing the spiritual energy formed. Sweat continuously trickled down from Claude’s forehead, but he continued persisting.

Each time the body strengthening cultivation technique made one complete circulation, Claude felt the reserve of spiritual energy in his body increase bit by bit. The cultivation technique, instead of depleting his spiritual energy, was helping him reach a better understanding, as it expanded along with the technique. This was the effect of the Agary Root Tonic!

Usually, high level cultivation techniques were akin to a hungry beast, madly devouring the spiritual energy. But now that the Agary root tonic was absorbed into his body, it helps the cultivator in obtaining enlightenment and a deeper understanding of the spiritual energy, in order to aid him in his cultivation. This results in a temporary growth spurt of spiritual energy, which enables the expansion of spiritual energy to keep up with its consumption by the cultivation techniques, thereby helping the cultivator stay in a seemingly infinite loop of cultivation.

However, although the end result would be permanent, with the cultivator gaining an improved spiritual energy reserve and a deeper understanding, the phenomenon that he was currently experiencing was only temporary, until the effects of the tonic wears off, after which the spiritual energy begins to drop.

But still, this was an extremely useful medicine, and combined with the Cultivation Booster Powder, his cultivation would only improve over time.

With his attention fully honed in on his cultivation, Claude’s eyebrows were tightly knit. This would only happen in a situation where someone was concentrating extremely hard. The sweat glistened on his forehead as it incessantly poured down his face, trickling downwards. He did not dare to relent in his focus. If he made even a slightest mistake during this process, then the effects of the medicine would be extinguished, and all will be for naught. There was no room for mistakes.

If he could perfectly complete the process, then it would be ideal. Claude’s eyes seemed to burn with excitement, but his heart remained extremely calm.

The process lasted for about six days, and Claude felt that time had passed rapidly as he had abandoned thoughts of anything other than cultivating in a frenzy.

After he completely exhausted the effects of the tonic, he had stepped into the middle stages of the seventh rank.

“The effects of these medicines are fantastic!” Claude was extremely surprised. Back when he was just an outer disciple, he couldn’t afford to buy most of these high-end medicine bottles without spending all his savings on it. But now that he had earned the title of inner disciple, he felt as if it was all too easy.

“Young master! The Second Elder had come by a few days ago when you were in the middle of cultivating!”

Right at this moment, the voice of Randall was heard coming from the outside.

“Come in!” Claude said, and Randall gently pushed the door open as he entered the room.

“Young master, the Second Elder has asked you to head to his residence as soon as possible, after completing your cultivation training,” Randall said.

“Did he say what it was for?” Claude inquired, to which Randall shook his head. “No he did not, young master. My apologies.”

“No matter,” Claude revealed a trace of a relaxed expression, as he stood up from his cross legged position. “I’ll ask him myself.”
