Chapter 62 Immediate Effects of the Medicine
After the potions were made, Chu Qiuchi carefully put them away. Then, the three of them went to the living room together. Chu Yichen and Nalan Xingyao had already woken up from their cultivation and were discussing the problems they had encountered while refining the weapon with great interest.
Upon seeing the three appear, Chu Yichen's eyes lit up, and he asked eagerly, "Sister, has the potion been successfully developed?"
Chu Qiuchi nodded proudly: "Absolutely, it's a success. I researched for a long time before finally developing the formula. However, some unexpected things happened during the process, and we ended up developing two kinds of medicine, one non-toxic and the other toxic." Then, she explained in detail the differences and usage restrictions of the two medicines. After listening, Chu Yichen and Nalan Xingyao both chose to take the toxic one without hesitation.
After distributing the prepared potions, Chu Qiuchi hesitated and said, "However, this potion requires the blood of beastmen. The higher the bloodline level of the beastmen's blood, the better the effect. I don't have much blood left, and I can only make three more potions at most. Tomorrow we need to go to the material exchange room to see if there is any other high-level beast blood."
Puyang Minghui had a sudden inspiration and said with a smile, "That's easy. Xingyao's family has the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce. Xingyao, you can ask your family to keep an eye out for high-level beast blood for us. We can buy it directly from them when the time comes."
Nalan Xingyao nodded: "Okay, I can help with that. I'll ask my family to keep an eye out for us."
Ji Moyu added, "I can also ask my grandfather to keep an eye out for us. It should be easier to collect beast blood in the war zone."
Hearing her teammates' suggestion, Chu Qiuchi's worries lessened considerably. She smiled and said, "That's great! With your support, I believe our need for beast blood will be resolved soon." She paused, then continued with a hint of amusement, "However, if we reveal the potion's formula, high-level beast blood will likely become a hot commodity."
Puyang Minghui chuckled and added, "Even if the potion recipe is published, the purity requirements for this potion are so high that not just any alchemist can easily refine such a high-purity potion. Aren't only a few of our classmates able to occasionally refine 100% pure potion essence? Therefore, there aren't many alchemists who can make this potion! It won't be so easy to popularize it."
Chu Qiuchi nodded in agreement: "That's right! In any case, let's make sure we have enough for ourselves first, and then we can consider releasing the formula. After all, we definitely need to meet our own needs first."
Ji Moyu pondered for a moment, then said, "The army will definitely have a huge demand for this medicine."
Puyang Minghui continued, "We don't know if our empire can supply enough. There are tens of millions of soldiers in the four war zones!"
After listening, Chu Qiuchi thought carefully and said, "The shortage is too big. The beast blood isn't the biggest problem; the alchemists are. We simply can't produce that many potions! No wonder so many potions became special supplies for the war zone before. Maybe many soldiers there don't even have access to them, let alone ordinary people!"
Listening to everyone's discussion, Chu Yichen suddenly offered his own idea: "Sister, can this potion be optimized further? If the purification requirements are lowered, can this potion still be made? With this potion, casualties on the battlefield should be reduced significantly. The physical improvement brought about by physical training is difficult to see results in a short time, but this potion should be able to help many people quickly improve their physical condition."
Chu Qiuchi nodded seriously after hearing his younger brother's words: "Brother, I didn't expect you to be so farsighted. You are truly a patriotic young man who cares about the country and its people! I will give it a try. Let's use this one ourselves for now, and I'll research whether I can make a lower-spec version. Let's try this effect first. It should be quite refreshing. After drinking it, we probably won't be able to go to the gravity training room for the next two days."
Chu Yichen smiled easily and said, "It's alright, it won't cause any trouble!"
After speaking, the group sat on the living room sofa and took out the potion to drink. As the potion went down, slowly, everyone felt as if they were burning with fire, but their limbs were completely immobile. The people who were originally sitting began to sway and stagger around. Chu Qiuchi, who was sitting not far from Ji Moyu, collapsed onto Ji Moyu's lap after the drug took effect. Ji Moyu also slumped to the other side of the sofa, feeling the weight on her lap, and tried to move her body uncomfortably, but she couldn't move at all.
Chu Qiuchi said awkwardly, "Little Fish, I didn't mean it. I didn't expect the effect to be so immediate!"
Chu Yichen wailed, "Sis, are we really going to have to go on like this for 48 hours?"
Chu Qiuchi coughed twice and said, "Probably, maybe, possibly!"
Chu Yichen and Nalan Xingyao had just been discussing something together, so they were standing very close. At that moment, Nalan Xingyao was leaning against Chu Yichen's chest, and she could clearly hear the rapid pounding of his heart. Her face involuntarily began to flush. Although they were teammates before, they had never been so close, and both of them felt a little awkward.
Puyang Minghui lay alone to one side, her eyes darting around as she looked at everyone's crooked and twisted positions. She couldn't help but laugh: "If we lie like this for two days, we'll be ruined! Next time we must find a bed to lie on! Is there anything we can do now? I just tried to circulate the magic orb, but it didn't work at all. My body seems to be disobeying me."
Upon hearing Puyang Minghui's words, the others hurriedly tried to activate their own magic orbs, only to find that it was indeed as she had said, and the atmosphere suddenly became somewhat awkward. Chu Qiuchi, slightly embarrassed, suggested, "Well, perhaps we could try mental energy cultivation." As she spoke, she tried to retrieve a mental energy training device from her mental space, and surprisingly, she succeeded. Seeing Chu Qiuchi successfully retrieve her mental energy training device, the others followed suit, retrieving their own devices.
The Mental Power Training Device, with its exquisite spherical shape and built-in multi-level difficulty training programs, has become an ideal choice for mages below the Divine Palace Realm in terms of mental power, used to hone their mental strength and improve their control skills. This training device is a masterpiece jointly developed by Chu Qiuchi, Chu Yichen, and Nalan Xingyao. It also realizes Chu Qiuchi's original vision, providing mages with a more convenient and safer method for mental power training, making it highly efficient and practical.
In the mage's mental power level system, from lowest to highest, they are: Divine Origin Realm, Divine Stream Realm, Divine Sea Realm, Divine Palace Realm, Divine Domain Realm, and finally, Divine King Realm. Among them, mages below the Divine Palace Realm account for more than 90% of the entire human race. Therefore, this training device quickly became popular throughout the empire upon its release, becoming an essential tool for the vast majority of mages.
They selflessly passed on the method of creating this meticulously developed mental power training device to the royal family. This generous act not only greatly promoted the overall leap in the strength of the magicians in the Aurora Empire, but also established their lofty prestige among the empire's magicians. The name of the "Six Sixes Blessing" team has become a legend and role model in the hearts of a new generation of magicians.
As mental energy was injected, the mental energy training device slowly rose into the air and then activated. Each person's body was gradually covered by a faint halo—an isolation array meticulously constructed for each user. This array not only could withstand an attack from a mage-level attacker, protecting the user from harm, but also served as a warning system, reminding the user to remain focused and alert during training.
Everyone was completely absorbed in the mental training, which became the perfect pastime for them to pass the next awkward 48 hours. Without this training, they really didn't know how they would have gotten through this difficult time.
