Chapter 560: Exchange Of Knowledge

For starters, he brought Evelynn around the stalls, explaining all her doubts which she posed from time to time, expanding her horizons while clearing his own doubts in the process.

Inadvertently, when she heard the uses of these pills, especially the medicinal pills, she began thinking about how to counter their medicinal effects with her own Poison Laws.

Numerous ideas came to her when but she would have to wait to try her conjectures out.

Seeing her being actively interested in pills, Davis brought her to a building that had a board inscribed with words, explaining that it has numerous antidotes for an array of poisons.

They entered the building and saw a wide variety of antidote pills arranged neatly on the long table and the shelves behind the table. There were also poisonous ingredients being sold.

Evelynn's eyes became bright as she looked at all those pills which she recognized some of them capable of neutralizing her poison from the description. She let go of his hand and moved by herself to the front, looking at the pills with interest and scrutiny.

However, she didn't stop asking her husband of numerous questions about the pills. She also suddenly got the urge to learn about poisonous ingredients and venomous magical beats since there was a wide variety of medicinal pills that countered these myriads of poisons.

When he saw some of the Peak-Level Sky Grade Medicinal Pills which cured some unknown yet powerful poisons he never heard of, he had to admit that he was lesser in terms of knowledge of poisons when compared with the creator of these pills.

He looked at the Peak-Level Sky Grade Alchemist who owned the shop and stated, "Fellow Alchemist, you seem to be extremely knowledgeable in the field of poison antidotes."

The alchemist's lips imperceptibly curved, feeling a little proud of the praise of a peer. He just nodded his head and didn't speak.

Davis saw that the other party's countenance was pale, his eyelids dropping as if it were heavy as well as his lips dry and not without much blood.

'Looks like a person who engages in pleasurable depravity all day long or secludes himself all day long in his garden of poison-attributed herbs... There's also a trace of poison in the whites of his eyes, although imperceptible, meaning that he tests the poison on himself and tries to cure with his own concoctions?'

'A madman! Definitely a madman! But why does he seem like the introverted type?'

Davis mused before his eyes flashed.

'Poisoning his own self...'

Davis instantly opened his mouth, "Fellow Alchemist, are you perhaps interested in exchanging knowledge of poisons?"

He wasn't afraid that the alchemist would refuse since this Alchemy Convention was opened precisely for the exchange of knowledge. However, that depended on whether if the people engaging in the transaction felt if the exchange was worth it.

The alchemist became taken aback before he nodded his head. He twirled around his slightly greyed hair and said, "What can you provide in exchange?"

"Peak-Level Sky Grade Medicinal Pill Recipes, those that deal with poisons..."

The alchemist's eyes became as wide as it could and brightened. He blinked and his face stayed blank for a moment before opening his mouth, "How do you compare the weight of the knowledge then?"

Davis took out a piece of parchment and on the tip of his finger, soul force emerged. He engraved lines of words in the parchment as time passed by, filling it with the necessary ingredients and concocting method.

Once finished, he extended his hand and held the Pill Recipe in his hand, "You can check the authenticity for yourself and grade the weight of the knowledge by your standards."

The alchemist's brows furrowed as he looked at Davis, "Aren't you afraid that I'll deny the value of your Pill Recipe and secretly take it for myself?"

"Then I can only say that you are a short-sighted man..." Davis replied as he glanced at Evelynn who was still immersed in browsing the pills while taking in new knowledge just from the descriptions.

Seeing her become interested in poisons, he rather felt heartened as all that encouragement, trust and reassurance hadn't gone to waste.

The alchemist became astonished before he pulled the Pill Recipe into his hand and read the contents while his eyes roamed on the parchment. The more he read it, the more he felt that the ingredients and the concoction method helped formed a real antidote pill.

He could more or less determine the authenticity of the Pill Recipe but he still had his doubts because the other party said Pill Recipes, meaning that he had more than one, just like the pill recipe he held in his hands.

Pill Recipes weren't roadside flyers that kept flying to a person's feet, only to let them notice and look at what it is!

Pill Recipes paved the way for an Alchemist to broaden their horizons and improve!

Suddenly, a pile of books dropped on the table with a 'thud'.

"These are the books which contain numerous compilation of poisonous ingredients, all at Sky Grade, from the Low to the Peak. If you have more, I can take out more knowledge relating to poison." The alchemist had his lips imperceptibly curve.

Davis wasn't astonished by the other party's words. Sometimes, a poison is used to cure another poison. Without this knowledge about poisons, a person definitely would not be well versed in curing poisons.

Poisonous Ingredients were just like that. Although they were poisonous, their cores, such as roots or stems are also used to cure the poisonous substance they produce, sometimes, even countering other poisons.

Davis took a look at the books and extended his hand, "Let me take a look..."

The alchemist took a certain book and passed it to him.

Davis narrowed his eyes and opened the book. He widened his eyes in surprise.

[Compendium Of Poison Essences]

Davi's lips curled.

Poison Essences! These were similar to his Fallen Extinction Lightning, the Lightning Elemental which he had already completely refined and made it into his own comprehension!

Elementals and Essences were rare entities of concentrated heaven and earth energy that managed to undergo some changes due to the surrounding unique atmosphere, even managing to give birth to a spirit in the process.

Needless to say, the information on Poison Essences available should be only until Peak-Level Sky Grade but to Evelynn, this should help her further comprehend Poison Laws as quickly as possible.

Nevertheless, with the amount of knowledge this alchemist had exhibited about poisons, Davis had basically confirmed it.

"Are you perhaps a Poison Master?"

The alchemist's eyes trembled in alarm! However, he didn't attack not did he do anything strange. He just nodded his head and said, "I am..."

After all, any alchemist who was skilled in counteracting poison could become a Poison Master! All they would have to do is reverse the process through observation and practice!

Davis nodded his head.

Poison Master is a profession, not a title. Those who are Poison Masters basically dabble in the arts of poison and are skilled in it, capable of poisoning people without their knowledge, like assassins. They are feared for the danger they possess and revered for their skill in neutralizing poison.

There was a saying that went, 'If the Apothecaries can't solve your ailment, only the Poison Masters can...'

Davis didn't know about the saying but he knew that a profession like this existed from Old Man Garvin's words.

There was one other matter he knew about Poison Masters, which is, they all basically came into contact with Poison Laws at some point in their lives after absorbing and comprehending all those knowledge in Poison!
