27 Alchemy Pills

After leaving, Shadow immediately went to a secluded area where she hid everything the monkey king gave her.

Ignoring a lot of the items, she focussed on the three storage bags.

Her eyes fell upon a small metal needle which she picked up between her teeth. 'I think this should work nicely!'

Applying a little pressure she slowly stabbed the needle into her front leg, small droplets of blood began to leak from her wound.

She began to drop the blood onto the storage bags one by one, emptying a bag and then removing her connection before moving to the next until she reached the final bag.

After searching through the final bag she emptied everything so she could look at all of the spoils of her deal.

She changed her spirit energy to light attribute for a short time as she sent her energy through her body until it reached her injured leg.

A white glow appeared on the tiny wound and the blood stopped leaking followed by the wound healing up completely, not even leaving a scar.

'Hmm… A couple of herbs, beast cores of a higher rank and a few pills are what stand out the most. These bags must of belonged to a noble from the nearby country.' She began to grow excited as her eyes rested on the pills and began identifying them.

'Hmm… Three low grade injury pills, useful for light internal injuries, perhaps I could give one to the monkey as thanks. It won't be enough to completely cure his injury but it should be helpful" She smiled as she glanced at the other pills.

'2 meridian tempering pills, useful for widening the meridians channels and strengthening them. I will use one while I will give the other to Korah, although the effect is minor it should improve our spirit energy circulation and control.' She passed a pill towards the white rabbit and warned. "Only consume small amounts at a time, this pills medicinal effects are very strong and you have a smaller body so you may not be able to handle its full effects."

"Thank you! I will do as you asked." Korah replied very excited as he took a small bite of the pill, his little body began to heat up as he began to cultivate.

'Hmm… This pill is a low grade spirit gathering pill, useful for increasing spirit energy in the body at spirit gathering stage. Although it loses its effects at the later stages of cultivation, it is helpful in the early stages. I am close to a break through so consuming this should guarantee a smooth increase in strength, but not until I use the meridian tempering pill.' She finished looking around before storing everything into her storage bag which she fastened around her neck.

Besides those pills she also noticed a few energy pills to help restore depleted energy during combat and a few blood clot pills to help close up light flesh wounds.

After sitting down in a comfortable position she swallowed the pill, a wave of heat spread through her body as she circulated her energy according to her cultivation manual.

As the medicinal effects began to take effect the energy constantly expanded violently forcing the meridian channels to widen, each time damaging them but as it was happening the pills effects took effect quickly restoring any small injuries to normal.

After a long process of cultivation, Shadow inspected her bodies condition as she noticed no problems she sighed with relief.

As she noticed her changes after cultivating for a short time she smiled. "After repeated damage and healing my meridian channels have toughened up quite a bit, my cultivation seemed a lot smoother too after they had widened."

"Hmm.. such a waste to leave such useful pills." She smirked as she began to laugh at the persons misfortune, what would of been of great assistance to some stranger had assisted her instead.

She looked over to see the little rabbit still determined to persist through the pain as he cultivated diligently.

Upon seeing this her heart softened, she was once again reminded that it was not just her who had been working hard.

Close to a break through, she consumed the spirit gathering pill and began to cultivate.

She sat in silence, her body relaxed as she felt she had become one with her environment.

Entering a completely serene state of mind, as she only focussed on her cultivation which had also increased in speed a little.

Perhaps her worries were restricting her somewhat, but as she noticed her friend her frame of mind changed for the better as she felt as though she was a lot lighter and broke free from the shackles holding her back.
