Chapter 393: Beginner Package
Chapter 393: Beginner Package
“What’s wrong? Open it,” Yan Nie said.
Gan Xuehua stared at him strangely. “Why are you so curious? Didn’t you get one?”
Yan Nie rolled his eyes. “By the time I got a Xiyi Talisman, I was already a seamless immortal. Why would I need a beginner package? Actually, you’re pretty lucky. If I had a beginner package, I wouldn’t have had to suffer so much in the beginning.”
Gan Xuehua blinked. Right, she had forgotten that Yan Nie was an old monster over four hundred years old. However, compared to those old timers, Yan Nie was practically a baby. For Gan Xuehua, four hundred years was already very old. After all, she had only lived a little more than fifty years, adding together both her lifetimes.
She didn’t think about it anymore and opened the beginner package.
[You have opened the Beginner Package. You have received:]
[3x Concealed Vitality Pills: A pill able to restore almost all injuries below the Immortal Realm as long as the user is not instantly killed. You can swallow the pill ahead of time and it will activate when the user receives serious injuries. PS The pill can only delay the effect of poisons, not detoxify the user.]
[1x Soul Restoration Pill: Is able to heal the user’s soul as long as seventy percent or more of it remains.]
[1x Instant Use Immortal Blocking Barrier: Can block a full-powered attack at the true immortal level once. The user will also be teleported to a random location on the Trinity Continent not controlled by a third-rate force or higher.]
[1x Invisibility Hairpin: Can be used three times. Will make the user invisible for one day and shield them from immortal sense. PS Not guaranteed to evade detection from a true immortal.]
[1x Acupoint Magnification Pill: One time use. Has a chance of increasing the number of acupoints of the martial body. Take it immediately before the Acupoint Opening Heavenly Tribulation. PS Will increase the difficulty of the Heavenly Tribulation.]
[1x Spiritual Core Upgrade Pill: One time use. Guarantees the chances of upgrading a mixed color, red, orange, or yellow spiritual cores. If used on a core formation master with a gold or violet-gold grade spiritual core, the chance dramatically decreases. PS The pill will still increase the power of the spiritual core even if it fails.]
[1x Void Shuttle: A saint-rank artifact. It can traverse through space and teleport the user almost anywhere within ten thousand kilometers. However, its true power is currently sealed. PS After binding it, a core formation master can use it to flee once. A nascent soul grandmaster can use it five times. A unity venerable will unseal the restrictions.]
[1x Soul Preservation Talisman: Immediate use. If the user dies, their soul will be teleported to the creator of the talisman. However, success depends on the strength of who killed the user. PS Must be attached to the user’s body to be able to activate.]
[2x Cultivation Method Vouchers: Do you really need to be told what this is? PS If you do, you are a dumbass and return everything.]
[1x Master-Rank Artifact Voucher: Read above.]
Gan Xuehua’s eyes twitched when she read the last two notifications. She had an urge to throw the Xiyi Talisman on the ground, but prudence prevented her from doing so.
Gan Xuehua started looking at the martial cultivation methods. Compared to the spiritual methods, she placed much more emphasis on martial methods. She hadn’t formed her martial body yet, so she had more options and many of the martial cultivation methods rivaled or exceeded the Gan Imperial Family’s cultivation method.
After scrolling through all of them, only three caught her eye: the Hundred Medicine Collection, Nine Serenity Venom Tome, and the Medicine-Poison Classic. All three didn’t directly increase the cultivator’s power, but each one had auxiliary effects that no one would take lightly.
The Hundred Medicine Collection required the user to form the Medicine Martial Body. At its base, it was a weak martial body, but ingesting all types of herbs, the Medicine Martial Body would become the Hundred Medicine Martial Body. The cultivator’s body becomes a medicine that could cure hundreds of diseases, poisons, and ailments. However, its combat power was pitiful.
In the apocalypse, Gan Xuehua’s medicinal skills made many people seek her out. However, she couldn’t protect herself and had to rely on others. In this life, Gan Xuehua wanted the power to determine her own fate, and not a tool used by others.
The Nine Serenity Venom Tome was more to her taste. It was almost the complete opposite of the Hundred Medicine Collection. The cultivator would form the Serenity Venom Martial Body. They would ingest as many poisonous substances as possible, upgrading their body to become the Nine Serenity Venom Martial Body. At the highest level, even the breath becomes a dangerous poison.
However, it was a perilous process. If Gan Xuehua was not careful, the poison would kill her instead, and she needed to maintain a fine line between what she can withstand and the intensity of the poison. The martial body would increase the difficulty of healing any injuries because the medicine needed to heal the body had to fight against the poison in her body.
Of the three, the Medicine-Poison Classic was like a mixture of the previous two methods. Once cultivated, the martial body can become either a medicine or a poison, depending on the user’s will. It was risky to cultivate since the user had to ingest poisonous substances, but not as much as the Nine Serenity Venom Tome. However, the resources needed to cultivate exceeded both methods.
Gan Xuehua didn’t need much time to consider and chose the Medicine-Poison Classic. She used a voucher, and waited, not knowing how the method would be delivered to her. She expected the method to be given to her as text on screen, but that was not the case. Instead, a white light shot out of the Xiyi Talisman and entered her forehead.
Her eyes glazed over for three hours before she regained clarity. The light only gave her the method relating to the Body Transformation Realm to Acupoint Opening Realm. As a core formation master, Gan Xuehua took hours to digest the information because it contained information on a large amount of herbs, medicine, and poison. If she wanted the Soul Nourishing Realm and World Merging Realm portions, she needed to enter the late Acupoint Opening Realm first.
Still, Gan Xuehua couldn’t help but stare at the Xiyi Talisman with suspicion. Forget cellphones. This thing was far more horrifying. Anyone controlling them likely could attack the Xiyi Talisman users as they liked. The horror of the Immortal Court increased several folds in her mind, and she swore not to stand on the other side of the Immortal Court.
Gan Xuehua shook her head. She wanted to start cultivating the Medicine-Poison Classic, but she wanted to extract the items from the beginner package first. She opened the spatial storage app of the Xiyi Talisman and selected the Concealed Vitality Pill.
She almost threw away the Xiyi Talisman when the space in front of the screen rippled. Luckily, she clamped down on her gut reaction. A bottle emerged out of the ripple and into her hand.
Gan Xuehua put away the Xiyi Talisman and opened the bottle, allowing the Concealed Vitality Pill to roll into her palm. Just smelling the dense medicinal fragrance soothed her fatigue. She played around it and wondered if she should swallow it.
Although it didn’t seem like her fellow reincarnator meant any harm to her, she couldn’t ignore the possibility of them tampering with the pill. After some hesitation, she decided to swallow it. Even if they tampered with it, she was helpless to resist. Not to mention that they wouldn’t need to spend so much effort on someone as weak as herself.
It was better to swallow it now in case of any accidents.
The Concealed Vitality Pill traveled down her throat and into her stomach. Once there, it released a burst of qi and dissolved, merging into every cell on her body. Before Gan Xuehua could enjoy the sensation for long, the lock that she kept on her martial cultivation loosened.
Her eyes widened as she snapped her head up. She had never undergone a heavenly tribulation, but she knew that tribulation clouds were gathered above her right now!
