A Great Haul

Wei Yang reached into the White Jade Box, his fingers lightly touching the Mutton-Fat Jade Bottle.

The instant his fingers touched the jade bottle, his brows rose.

An icy chill seeped into his hand. In the blink of an eye, a thin layer of frost had covered his entire palm, and judging by its momentum, it was rapidly spreading toward his arm.

Wei Yang jerked his hand back as though shocked. With a thought, the Dou Qi within him began circulating swiftly, coursing through his meridians before surging into his palm.

Dark Red Flame immediately rose from Wei Yang's palm, blazing fiercely. After contending with the frigid chill for a moment, it quickly melted it away.

He shook his hand, flinging off the moisture, while also withdrawing the Dark Red Flame.

"As expected of Ice Spirit Cold Spring. Cold enough!"

Wei Yang nodded in satisfaction, carefully replaced the lid of the White Jade Box, and put it away.

His senses swept through the Storage Ring, and he took out the remaining four items.

Two of them were scrolls. Upon opening them, he found that both were pill recipes.

One was the recipe for the Dou Spirit Pill, a Fifth-Grade Pill Recipe.

The Dou Spirit Pill was a medicinal pill that could raise a Dou Wang's strength by one to two stars without any side effects. One could imagine just how precious such a pill was.

There was not a single Dou Wang who would not covet it.

As for why it was called the Dou Spirit Pill, that was anyone's guess.

The other was the recipe for the Emperor Extreme Pill, a Sixth-Grade Pill Recipe.

This pill was even more precious. It could raise a Dou Emperor's strength by one to two stars without any side effects.

However, it seemed that both of these pills could only be taken once at each realm.

Still, there was no doubt that these two pill recipes were extremely valuable and precious.

Wei Yang glanced over the recipes before putting them away.

His gaze fell upon the remaining two items.

They were two jade bottles.

"Could they be pills?" Wei Yang was intrigued.

For Gute to deliberately store them in a Storage Ring and hide them so... ahem, they surely could not be anything ordinary.

He opened one of the jade bottles, and a rich azure pill fragrance instantly spilled out, rapidly filling the entire room.

Even Xian'er, who was diligently sorting the precious medicinal ingredients nearby, turned to look.

Wei Yang lowered his head and looked inside the jade bottle.

A round pill the size of a longan lay quietly within.

It was an azure pill, its surface marked with three mysterious rings of Pill Markings encircling it.

"This is... a Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill!" Wei Yang recognized the pill after only a brief pause.

Moreover, this was no ordinary Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill.

The Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill was a Fourth-Grade Pill.

An ordinary Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill could help a Dou Shi break through into the Da Dou Shi Realm.

If a Da Dou Shi consumed it, there was a small chance of raising their strength by one star, with no backlash from the medicinal effect.

The Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill came in three grades.

Each grade would form one ring of Pill Markings on the pill's surface.

Three rings meant it was a Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill of the highest grade, just like the one currently in Wei Yang's hand.

Those below the Da Dou Shi Realm should use this pill with caution.

If a Da Dou Shi consumed it, there was a chance of raising their strength by three stars. At the same time, there was also a certain chance of suffering backlash. Those afflicted by the backlash might lose around one to two stars of strength, though their lives would not be in danger.

To raise a Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill to the highest, three-pattern grade required three different flames and skilled control over them.

This Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill could be taken once in the Da Dou Shi Realm and once in the Dou Ling Realm.

Taking it during the Da Dou Shi stage gave one a chance to gain three stars of strength.

Taking it again during the Dou Ling stage gave one a chance to gain two stars of strength.

The thought flashed through his mind. Wei Yang capped the jade bottle and put away this highest-grade Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill.

There was no question that it was a precious pill.

It was the sort of pill that would drive countless Da Dou Shi and Dou Ling experts mad with envy.

A pill that gave a Da Dou Shi a chance to rise by three stars.

A pill that gave a Dou Ling a chance to rise by two stars.

If it were put up for auction, people would probably fight over it to the death.

According to the original work, the recipe for the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill alone would likely make quite a few people willing to trade a Profound Tier High-Grade Cultivation Technique, or even an Earth Tier Dou Technique, if it appeared on the market.

A highest-grade Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill was certainly not as valuable as its recipe, but it probably would not be worth much less. To someone in desperate need of it, perhaps it could barely compare?

Wei Yang considered his current Seven-star Dou Ling Realm. This Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill, uh, seemed to have arrived at exactly the right time!

Perhaps after taking it, he could directly rise to the Nine-star Dou Spirit level.

There was a strong chance of that happening!

Not to mention Wei Yang's own talent and powerful Soul Power, which already greatly increased his odds of success.

The fact that he had never taken any medicinal pills before might also improve his chances considerably.

Then he remembered how he had climbed from a One-Star Dou Spirit to the Seven-star Dou Ling Realm in just three months, and he temporarily suppressed the thought.

Better slow down for now and consolidate his foundation first.

He then opened the final jade bottle.

A flash of purple light immediately appeared, and a rich purple pill fragrance slowly rose, forming a cloud of purple mist at the mouth of the bottle.

"What a rich colored pill fragrance. Another high-grade pill!" By then, Xian'er had finished sorting the precious medicinal ingredients. She walked over with a satisfied expression and curiously peered at the jade bottle.

Wei Yang looked down into the jade bottle. A purple pill the size of a longan lay quietly within.

"Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill!"

Wei Yang narrowed his eyes slightly, a violet gleam reflected in his pupils as he softly spoke the pill's name.

"This is a pill comparable to a Fifth-Grade Pill."

"A Fifth-Grade Pill?!" Xian'er's eyes widened. She took the jade bottle with her small hand and curiously poked her head forward to look at the purple pill inside.

"It is only comparable in value. It is still a Peak Fourth-Grade Pill," Wei Yang explained.

The Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill was a Peak Fourth-Grade Pill. Like the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill, it was a precious medicinal pill that could directly raise one's strength.

However, its effects only applied to those at the Da Dou Shi level and were useless to Dou Ling experts.

If someone at the Da Dou Shi level consumed a Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill, their strength would rise by one star without fail.

It would basically never fail, nor would it cause backlash.

Most importantly, at the Da Dou Shi level, one could consume two Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pills in succession without developing excessive resistance to the medicine.

In other words, as long as one could obtain two Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pills, they could almost certainly and steadily raise their strength by two stars.

Its value was no lower than that highest-grade Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill from before—perhaps even greater.

Although the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill had a chance of raising a Da Dou Shi's strength by three stars, it was only a chance. Moreover, its potential backlash was enough to scare many people away.

At the Da Dou Shi level, if given a choice, many people would probably choose to take two Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pills with no side effects rather than one Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill.

Of course, as for their exact value and relative importance, that was a matter of personal opinion.

Wei Yang capped the jade bottle and put it away.

In his eyes, they were all valuable goods.

Thanks to Fragrance Hidden in Darkness, One Mu Fish Pond, and Guo Datai for the rewards!

Thanks for the support, brothers~
