Something Terrible Has Happened

The Clear Wind Bright Moon Pill, a Seventh-Rank Pill, had the effect of nourishing the soul. I had once obtained one during the Four Directions Pavilion Tournament and later gave it to Han Xue.

The Self-Preservation Pill, a Seventh-Rank Pill, had the effect of healing physical injuries.

The Six Meridians Harmonizing Pill, a Seventh-Rank Pill, could nourish and repair damaged meridians.

These three pills were the "Three Seventh-Rank Pills" that Little Fairy Doctor had ultimately chosen for me after careful consideration.

Individually, these three Seventh-Rank Pills were certainly not the most potent Seventh-Rank Pills, but they offered the best value for their cost.

Moreover, their medicinal properties did not conflict with one another. Instead, they complemented each other, and taking all three together could further enhance their effects.

I frowned slightly, somewhat worried. "The ingredients needed to refine three Seventh-Rank Pills definitely won't be cheap. I wonder if we have enough money... Sigh, things were too urgent back in Xian Wei City. We never got the chance to raid the Tong Family's treasury. What a pity!"

"You have quite a lot of things on you. It'll definitely be enough to refine three Seventh-Rank Pills."

Little Fairy Doctor shot me a sidelong glance and smiled sweetly. "Besides, we're both Seventh-Rank Alchemists. How could a little money possibly stump us?"

"That's true. Those alchemists are the best at squeezing money out of people. They can sell a lousy pill for such an outrageous price. They're far too greedy!"

I smiled. With the pills decided, all that remained was to purchase the ingredients. Our group of five began wandering through the city, entering every shop that dealt in medicinal herbs to inquire whenever we passed one.

After making the rounds, we had bought nearly all the supplementary ingredients for the Three Seventh-Rank Pills.
