Chapter 358: Chapter 352: Is it from Xiaofan? (Please Subscribe)
At noon, the sun was still shining brightly, but the wind that blew carried a slight chill.
On the wasteland, a team of more than twenty people was advancing quickly.
This was a team of riders, each of the more than twenty people was riding on a wildebeest over two meters tall.
Each person held various weapons in their hands, such as bows and arrows, long spears, long knives, and even rifles and machine guns.
Some people were also holding ropes, dragging their prey.
All of them had happy smiles on their faces.
"We had a good harvest this time. We got more than ten low-level fierce beasts, and even two mid-level fierce beasts. A pound of mid-level fierce beast meat is worth three to five pounds of low-level fierce beast meat!"
"Really? If we eat mid-level fierce beast meat, wouldn’t our cultivation speed be even faster?"
"Of course, I heard that high-level fierce beast meat is even more valuable! The martial artists over at Song Family Castle eat high-level fierce beast meat regularly."
"Really? That’s so extravagant! The price of one pound of high-level fierce beast meat is ten times that of low-level fierce beast meat? Only the martial artists at Song Family Castle can afford that."
"That’s nothing. I heard that the martial artists in Anshan City not only eat high-level fierce beast meat, but also take elixirs! They are so expensive, several thousand per pill!"
"Several thousand!"
The noisy discussions immediately quieted down.
"A single elixir can be sold for thousands of dollars? Impossible, right?" Someone said while looking around, but everyone around was also confused.
In the end, everyone’s eyes fell on a few people at the front.
"Brother Wei, you have seen a lot and should know if such elixirs exist, right?"
The atmosphere quieted down as soon as the words were spoken.
Everyone looked at those in front with reverence in their eyes.
Those people at the front were not only the elders of the village but also the strongest martial artists, said to be on the verge of breaking through to the Muscle Refining Realm.
They were the ones who had just taken care of the two Gale Wolves they encountered earlier.
Otherwise, with the speed of those two mid-level fierce beasts, they wouldn’t have been able to react in time.
"Yes, such elixirs do exist." Wei Tiangong nodded, looking mature and steady.
In contrast, his brother Wei Tianyuan seemed much more approachable.
With a broad smile, he turned to everyone and said, "The elixir I’m talking about is called a Qi Blood Pill. Even the cheap ones cost several thousand yuan each, while the best ones cost several tens of thousands of yuan each."
"What! Tens of thousands each!"
Everyone was stunned by his words.
"A low-level fierce beast is only worth a few hundred to a thousand, right?"
"Several thousand yuan is equivalent to several low-level fierce beasts. Tens of thousands mean dozens of them?"
"Dozens of low-level fierce beasts could sustain the whole village for one or two months. And yet, it’s only enough to buy one elixir?"
"Expensive, isn’t it?"
Wei Tianyuan smiled, squinting his eyes. "Even at that price, they are hard to come by."
Indeed, the crowd exclaimed again.
"Really? Tens of thousands of yuan each, and they are still in short supply?"
"If someone else said it, I wouldn’t believe it, but since Brother Tianyuan said it, I believe it."
"That’s right. Brother Tianyuan has seen the world, so it must be true. But, what makes these Qi Blood Pills so valuable?"
"Yes, Brother Tianyuan, why is that?"
Everyone looked eager for an answer.
"Why?"
Wei Tianyuan chuckled. "Do you want to know?"
"Brother Tianyuan, don’t keep us in suspense at a time like this."
"Yes, please tell us! If you don’t, I won’t be able to sleep tonight."
"Okay, I’ll tell you then." Wei Tianyuan said openly, "In fact, both Qi Blood Pills and fierce beast meat can enhance the qi and blood in our bodies. However, the boost from Qi Blood Pills is greater and faster than eating fierce beast meat. Let me give you an example. A regular person, practicing diligently, refining their body could take two to three years to break through to the Muscle Refining Realm. The same individual, with the same dedication, if they were taking Qi Blood Pills, might take only a year, or even less if they have a high talent. Half a year would be enough."
"Half a year!"
"Oh my, the time is directly shortened by several times?"
"Is there such a big difference?"
Everyone was astounded.
Two years versus half a year, a fourfold difference!
In the post-apocalyptic world, what is needed most? Time!
"Of course." Wei Tianyuan said with a hum. "If not, why would a single Qi Blood Pill sell for several thousand or even tens of thousands each? Even so, martial artists in Anshan City are eager to buy them."
Everyone took a deep breath.
Again, if anyone else said it, they might not believe it, but if Wei Tianyuan said it, they had to believe.
"I wonder what a Qi Blood Pill looks like? I’m not trying to taste it, but I’d like to see it for my knowledge. Something worth several thousand or tens of thousands per pill, I probably won’t be able to earn that much in my lifetime." Someone lamented.
"You saying that makes me want to see it too. However, such treasures are only found in Anshan City. Even Song Family Castle might not have it."
"Of course. Several thousand or tens of thousands per pill. People in Song Family Castle may not be able to afford it, let alone those in the smaller villages around."
"The price is high, but the effect is worth it."
"Yes, indeed."
Everyone echoed, filled with curiosity about the mysterious Qi Blood Pill.
Seeing this, Wei Tianyuan was about to say something when a familiar cough interrupted.
"Cough." Wei Tiangong turned his head and glanced at him, shaking his head slightly.
Wei Tianyuan instantly realized, giving an embarrassed smile and promptly closing his mouth.
Close call.
He had almost mentioned the Qi Blood Pills he had.
Thankfully, his brother stopped him in time. Though these were fellow villagers, one should always guard against others. The saying goes, "Don’t show your wealth." holds true.
Moreover, the Qi Blood Pills he had were not ordinary, but top-grade Qi Blood Pills worth twenty thousand yuan each!
Yes, top-grade Qi Blood Pills!!!
Recently, after they were exhausted from training in the martial arts field and about to return for a bath and rest, Chen Guodong called them over and led them into a small room.
Zhang Ren was present too, and he smiled at them as they entered.
Then, Chen Guodong took out a small bottle and placed it on the table.
The brothers were stunned, not knowing what he was up to.
Two minutes later, they were shocked, staring at the small bottle on the table, almost terrified.
According to Zhang Ren, each elixir in the bottle was worth twenty thousand yuan, equivalent to dozens of low-level fierce beasts!
The bottle contained ten pills, translating to a total value of 200,000 yuan!
Unbelievable.
But Zhang Ren was an Entry Force Martial Artist, second to none besides Chen Fan in the village. Would he deceive them?
Despite this, they still asked repeatedly, and Zhang Ren just smiled and silently opened the bottle, taking out two pills for them to consume.
The moment they took it, they felt a burning sensation in their abdomen that spread throughout their bodies.
Then, a sound of something breaking inside their minds echoed.
They had just broken through a small realm!
They were dumbfounded, feeling like they were dreaming.
According to Zhang Ren, it was a result of accumulation, with the top-grade Qi Blood Pill triggering their breakthrough.
In their view, it was the Qi Blood Pill that played the decisive role.
Otherwise, why would they suddenly break through right after consuming the pill?
In the following days, they felt an endless supply of energy.
Usually, low-level fierce beast meat would be fully absorbed by the next day. Even mid-level fierce beast meat would last only one or two days.
They were incredibly grateful.
Elixirs worth 200,000 yuan? Chen Guodong just gave them away. If they worked for the village their whole lives, they wouldn’t earn that much.
Chen Guodong waved it off, saying there was more, and it was Chen Fan’s kind gesture, so they should accept it.
Hearing his name gave them a shock.
These elixirs were from Xiaofan? No wonder only he could have something so valuable in the entire village.
They were deeply moved, not knowing what to say.
Chen Guodong smiled, urging them to keep it a secret before sending them off.
"I wonder how Xiaofan is doing in Anshan City." Wei Tianyuan regained his senses, looking in the direction of Anshan City.
A bottle of top-grade Qi Blood Pills worth 200,000 yuan.
How hard must Xiaofan work to earn that much and buy such elixirs?
He must have intended to take care of his family, and Chen Guodong wasn’t stingy in sharing the elixirs with them...
"I hope Xiaofan is safe and sound in Anshan City and nothing bad happens to him." Wei Tianyuan prayed in his heart.
