In life or study, people often encountered this kind of situation: some things looked simple, were simple to use, and even seemed perfectly natural; yet trying to research their underlying logic was enough to make anyone worry themselves bald.
For example, humans got sick. That was common, even perfectly natural.
But why did humans get sick?
That question was genuinely difficult to answer. To answer it, one needed to study the structure of human life, biochemistry, microorganisms and viruses, the environment, lifestyle, thought, Chinese and Western medicine, and many other areas.
The same was true for potion research.
Why could two main ingredients with little toxicity, combined with several auxiliary ingredients that were likewise nearly harmless, produce a poison beyond imagination?
Although Ren Qingyun had proposed the theory that "poison is super nutrition concentrated from a higher dimension," it was only a theory. Moreover, because it involved higher dimensions, it could not yet be verified.
Still, for the time being, it was a direction for research.
After thinking for a moment, Chu Fei took out the formulas for more than a dozen other Eclipse Potions and began studying them.
After continuously comparing the combinations used in more than a dozen Eclipse Potions, Chu Fei nodded thoughtfully. Based on the current research results, the claim that poison was super nutrition did make sense.
The combinations in Eclipse Potions fit this logic well. Multiple ingredients pushed fo-ti's detoxifying effects and nerve-repairing effects to their limits.
No, it was not merely a matter of reaching the limit. It had directly gone "beyond dimensions," to a degree ordinary flesh-and-blood bodies could not endure.
After consuming an Eclipse Potion, the condition of Weakness to Nourishment was directly pushed to its extreme.
Think about it. When an ordinary person ate ginseng, it could cause a nosebleed.
