The original owner's body had exhausted its potential due to a martial soul mutation, causing his meridians to atrophy. His Innate Soul Power had been a pitiful Rank One.
As a transmigrator, Huo Yuhao naturally knew all this.
The reason Qian Duoduo had so generously given Huo Yuhao ten Mystic Water Pills without caring about the expense was also because he wanted to help Huo Yuhao improve his Innate Talent as much as possible.
The Mystic Water Pill's effects were to cleanse the meridians and marrow, widen the meridians, and remove impurities from the body.
Furthermore, like the system's Marrow Cleansing Pill, the Mystic Water Pill was most effective the first time it was taken. The younger one was when taking it, the greater its benefits for a soul master.
It would not cause some ridiculous effect like diarrhea from taking too much, but its efficacy would still be greatly reduced, yielding half the results for twice the effort.
If Qian Duoduo had not finally encountered such a heaven-defying disciple as Huo Yuhao, whose "ten-year Spirit Ring" had actually produced two top-tier Spirit Skills, he probably would not have been willing to spend ten Mystic Water Pills just to improve this disciple's Innate Talent!
After all, these things were not cheap. Their market price was Ten Thousand Gold Soul Coins each, and they were even Priceless but Unavailable!
Even an Academy High-level like Qian Duoduo could not simply take them out whenever he pleased.
Originally, Huo Yuhao had wondered whether he could buy a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring or even a Million-Year Soul Ring from the Drunken Intent Store, but the result showed that he had been thinking too much.
The items in this store were indeed heaven-defying, but not to such an absurd extent.
If he wanted high-year Spirit Rings, he could only honestly level up and fight monsters, relying on Tian Meng's cheat!
Therefore, for the sake of his future, Huo Yuhao could only eat all ten Mystic Water Pills.
Because Huo Yuhao knew that Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had arranged a four-hundred-thousand-year Wisdom Soul Ring for him. If his physique was not strong enough, it would be difficult for him to absorb it across ranks.
One careless mistake could cost him his life.
Moreover, Huo Yuhao had an even crazier idea.
If he wanted to realize that idea, Huo Yuhao had to strive for the very best when it came to tempering his body!
What he had not expected, however, was that while the Drunken Intent Store did not have Spirit Rings, it did have Marrow Cleansing Pills!
Although the Mystic Water Pills were incredibly effective, based on Huo Yuhao's estimation, they still could not compare to products made by the system.
Since the system had Marrow Cleansing Pills, they were definitely what he needed to exchange for first.
As for the Mystic Water Pills, he could treat them as ordinary pills for increasing Soul Power. Eating just one would be enough.
He would sell the remaining nine for money to buy alcohol!
One pill was worth Ten Thousand Gold Soul Coins, but he refused to sell them individually. He would bundle them together and sell them for One Hundred Thousand Gold Soul Coins—take it or leave it!
For something Priceless but Unavailable like this, even if he marked it up just a tiny bit, would he really fail to find a buyer?
Heh, if I remembered correctly, Ning Tian, the little princess of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School, which was said to be the richest sect on the continent, seemed to be in Freshman Class Nine, right?
Hehehe~
A pure smile appeared on Huo Yuhao's face. He had already decided how to deal with the remaining Mystic Water Pills.
With a plan already in mind, Huo Yuhao was about to exit the system when he suddenly noticed another section on the far right of the Drunken Intent Store.
"Limited Purchase Items?"
Huo Yuhao looked at it in confusion, and his curiosity was immediately piqued.
What kind of rare thing was this? It even had purchase limits?
As he thought, Huo Yuhao opened the Limited Purchase Item section.
Peerless Sword Skills, containing the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, wielding unfathomable divine and ghostly power! (Note: Limited to ten purchases. Please choose carefully. No refunds after purchase!) Learning requirement: Must rely on Spirit Rings and can only be activated by a Drunken Sword Immortal! Note: Each use requires fine wine as a catalyst and consumes 100 points of Drunken Intent! Item List: Peerless Sword Skill: A single sword strike, frost chills fourteen states! Peerless Sword Skill: Sword-Controlling Art: Myriad Swords Return to One! Peerless Sword Skill: Divine Sword Controlling Thunder True Art! Peerless Sword Skill: Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!
Huo Yuhao's eyes instantly widened, and he could not help blurting out, "Holy shit!"
"There's actually something this good!?"
Huo Yuhao was immediately stunned.
Judging from the description, this thing did not seem to take up a Spirit Skill slot?
It was limited to ten purchases, could only be activated by a Drunken Sword Immortal, and relied on Spirit Rings.
In other words, these sword skills matched Spirit Rings one-to-one. It was equivalent to gaining an extra powerful finishing move for every additional Spirit Ring?
And this finishing move did not even consume Soul Power. It only required alcohol and Drunken Intent!?
Huo Yuhao sucked in a cold breath.
The original Huo Gua had already been famous among freaks for having too many Spirit Skills. If he added powerful finishing moves on top of that, he was headed straight for invincibility!
Then he looked toward the lower-right corner. Exchange requirement: 1,000 points of Drunken Intent!
"Not bad, not bad."
The price was not outrageous. Even if he only drank the lowest-grade cheap liquor, ten days would be enough to exchange for one Peerless Sword Skill.
Moreover, the requirement stated that they had to be used with Spirit Rings. One Spirit Ring could learn one sword skill, so the exchange frequency probably would not be high.
Still, he needed to save up more Drunken Intent for using the sword skills. It would be too embarrassing if he could not cast a skill because he had no "mana"!
Only after carefully reviewing the sword skills did Huo Yuhao finally suppress his restless heart, close the Drunken Intent Store, and exit the Drunken Sword Immortal System.
His second martial soul, the Drunken Sword Immortal, was still unactivated. Without Spirit Rings as a foundation, these Peerless Sword Skills were temporarily useless.
He took a deep breath and calmed his emotions.
Although he had just drunk a full ten jars of different types of alcohol in succession, perhaps because of the Drunken Sword Immortal System, he did not feel even the slightest bit drunk.
Instead, he felt refreshed and invigorated. Every pore on his body seemed to have opened, and his whole body felt so comfortable that he seemed about to ascend to immortality. He was in exceptionally good condition.
As the saying went, strike while the iron was hot. Since he had nothing better to do and had already reached his drinking limit for the day, it was time to pop some pills!
Thinking this, Huo Yuhao took a Jade Box from the Space Ring Qian Duoduo had given him.
When he opened the Jade Box, there was a dark-blue pill inside—it was precisely a Mystic Water Pill.
Under the moonlight, a faint layer of watery mist surrounded the Mystic Water Pill, as though it were enveloped in moonlight. A fresh fragrance slowly drifted out from it, delightfully soothing to the senses.
Looking at the Mystic Water Pill, Huo Yuhao exclaimed, "As expected of a pill worth Ten Thousand Gold Soul Coins. It certainly looks good. Heh, since I don't have cephalosporin to drink with my alcohol, a Mystic Water Pill will do nicely."
With that, Huo Yuhao boldly tossed the pill into his mouth.
The pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth, like drinking a cup of mountain spring water on a scorching summer day.
Intense Soul Power fluctuations began to radiate from Huo Yuhao's body.
At the same time, a hazy layer of blue light spread across his body. It resembled a thin veil of mist, and within that mist lingered a certain fragrant scent.
Slowly closing his eyes, Huo Yuhao felt as if he were soaking in a clear pool atop a mountain. The refreshing, unobstructed sensation nearly made him moan aloud.
He suddenly recalled a phrase: cool to the core, spirits soaring!
