Chapter 1852 - 1448: Searching for Medicine and Refining Pills! (Part 2)
But this one in his hand was his own, and seeing Qin Fang's nonchalant demeanor, it seemed like it was merely trash.
"Don't make too much of a fuss about this thing. If you're injured, just take the elixir, and ask me for more later..."
Qin Fang's following words almost made Monk Wukong's heart leap out of his chest.
"When did the Life-saving Golden Pill become so worthless?"
Monk Wukong's face was a mix of indescribable grief and excitement. After all, the Life-saving Golden Pill was now in his hands.
"Wait, this is the Life-saving Golden Pill! Then what are you planning to refine is..."
Soon enough, Monk Wukong realized, listening to Qin Fang's words, that these Life-saving Golden Pills were as common as candies to Qin Fang, at least Qin Fang had plenty of them.
But Qin Fang was still leaving behind materials from the Xuan Shui Python to refine elixirs, clearly to create another type... not for saving lives, but then...
At this thought, Monk Wukong's breath quickened with excitement, and his eyes became more eager, causing Qin Fang to feel uneasy, like he got goosebumps all over.
Luckily, Qin Fang knew Monk Wukong practiced virginity arts and couldn't break his celibacy, otherwise, he'd really be worried about preserving his purity.
"To improve one's martial prowess..."
Seeing Monk Wukong's reaction, Qin Fang didn't hide it and said with a smile.
Many herbs picked from this mystical land could be used for concoction, and the materials obtained from the Xuan Shui Python were crucial for preparing the Cultivating Yuan Pill, which was one reason Qin Fang desperately needed to kill this Xuan Shui Python.
Of course, another main reason was to save Ji Xiang's life!
"Hiss~~"
Even after suspecting beforehand, Monk Wukong couldn't help but gasp when he got Qin Fang's confirmation.
Ji Xiang and Song Qingshan were not much better off, each showing shock on their faces.
In the Martial World, apart from divine weapons, some rare items with special purposes were most precious, like the Qianji Ring in Qin Fang's hand.
The reason these items were valuable is that their effects last long and are not one-time, they can be passed down generations, and as long as the treasure is undamaged, it's still powerful.
Apart from these, elixirs hold the most value, cherished by nearly all martial arts experts, with each one being extremely precious!
During certain periods, the value of these elixirs even surpasses divine weapons or other rare items...
Elixirs are categorized: life-saving, like the Life-saving Golden Pill, those that enhance power, and those elixirs with special uses, like Trance Elixirs, Detoxification Pills, etc...
Besides a few exceptions, elixirs with special uses are mostly trivial, with or without making little difference.
The ones truly priceless are the other two types, the Blood Replenishing Pill Qin Fang gave naturally belongs to the Life-saving Golden Pill category, priceless as they grant martial artists an extra chance at life...
Elixirs that enhance power, though not as direct as the Life-saving Golden Pill, have even greater value.
In the Martial World, everyone hopes to reach a higher level, but due to reasons like talent, age, resources, etc., they can't break through.
This is where the value of these power-enhancing elixirs comes into play...
Perhaps such elixirs can't directly elevate a martial artist by one or several levels, but when stuck at a bottleneck, they have a high chance of helping the martial artist break through!
Once past that hurdle, achieving a higher level is more important to martial artists than another chance at living.
For critical hurdles, the value of such elixirs becomes even more priceless...
For instance, people like Qin Fang, who are stuck at the Master Level Peak, can become Grandmaster-level Experts with just one step, making elixirs that aid this breakthrough invaluable, not easily measured in money.
If such elixirs were for sale, they would go to any lengths to acquire them...
Of course, such elixirs are generally not available for sale.
If they are truly for sale, it's often in barter form, needing something special in exchange.
Faced with this, Monk Wukong, although from a prestigious sect, never thought he could obtain this, otherwise he wouldn't opt for worldly practice to overcome this barrier.
To his surprise, since befriending Qin Fang, his skills advanced while having access to many treasures.
Qin Fang explicitly told him that he would provide a few drops of Golden Dragon Saliva when he breaks through, which deeply moved Monk Wukong.
Unexpectedly, now Qin Fang came up with such good stuff, even refining power-enhancing elixirs...
"Don't be so surprised! It's too early to talk about this now, still need to gather the materials first."
