Chapter 397: Chapter 391: Water Absorption
Translator: 549690339
Following the conclusion of the Pharmacy Conference, a somewhat exhausted David Jones, accompanied by the Guildmaster and other elite pharmacists, headed towards the Pharmacist Guild building.
In the lounge, Lilith Hoyle looked at David’s pale face and teased, “Howdoes it feel to overload your innate talent?”
“Teacher, I feel like my head is about to explode!” David grimaced.
At first, it was tolerable, but as time went on, his brain ached like it was being punctured by needles.
“It’s good you know it hurts. Overloading can cause the Arcane Star to lose levels. Next time, don’t be so stubborn. The outcome of a single Pharmacy Conference has little impact.”
LilithHoyle shook her head slightly and handed him an elixir that emitted faint starlight.
“This is the Source-Cultivating Elixir, which can effectively replenish psychic power and reduce the burden on the Arcane Star.”
“Thank you, Master.”
David’s eyes lit up as he immediately swallowed the elixir.
The rare and expensive Source-Cultivating Elixir, which could replenish psychic power and prevent Arcane Star damage, was a rare Class IV S-tier elixir. With just this elixir alone, it could have sparked fierce competition among many elite Trainers.
It seemed his excellent performance in winning the Pharmacy Conference made his teacher very happy, as she casually handed out the rare elixir.
Feeling the surge of the elixir’s pure medicinal power within him, David, who was still forcing himself to keep going, couldn’t help but massage his brow and let out a sigh of relief.
“I have to say, you really know how to surprise people. This Soul-Consolidating Elixir is now yours!”
Seeing David’s condition improving, Lilith Hoyle drew a jade bottle from her Star Ring, which appeared spotlessly clean and white in an instant.
Watching Miss Hoyle, who looked like a Lolita, display such an incongruous expression, Helen Cloud, who was sitting beside herpeteer, did not seem surprised. Instead, envy towards David showed on her face.
The Soul-Consolidating Elixir, which could establish a Yellow Ranked Spiritual Realm and set the Path of Monarchs, was a treasure that required 100,000 Points to be exchanged in the sect’s treasury, and there was a limit on the number of exchanges.
Even if she managed to collect 100,000 Points with her family’s help, she still wouldn’t be able to exchange for the Soul-Consolidating Elixir she longed for in the treasury.
At this moment, seeing David excitedly accepting the Soul-Consolidating
Elixir, Helen Cloud couldn’ t help but approach with a hint of hope.
“Brother David, are you selling the Soul-Consolidating Elixir? I can buy it with 150,000 sect Points.”
Hearing the delicate fragrance by his ear, David firmly shook his head, “Sorry, I need this elixir for myself. You should seek someone else to buy it from.” Upon hearing this, Wen Yan’s teeth clenched lightly, and disappointment showed on her face.
Glancing at her failed purchase, Lilith Hoyle reminded, “The Soul- Consolidating Elixir has immense power and should not be taken unless one possesses unwavering willpower and an Arcane Star Cultivation of Class V. However, with your psychic cultivation, trying it at the apex of Class IV Arcane Star should be possible. But there’s one thing you should note: before taking the Soul-Consolidating Elixir, you must maintain a perfect psychic state, otherwise, the efficacy may be affected.”
“Understood.” David nodded.
Having issued the reminders, Lilith Huan briefly spoke to Hudson Harvey, and a mysterious, ancient, and dark-surfaced World Cauldron appeared in the hall with a flicker of light from his Star Ring.
“A good horse deserves a good saddle, and this World Cauldron can increase your pharmacy skill by three levels.”
David reached out to gently touch the elixir cauldron in front of him, feeling the faint aura flowing on its surface before it emitted a series of brilliant lights.
Noticing the doubt in David’s eyes, Hudson Harvey laughed.
“Arcane implements have spirits, and this reaction shows the World Cauldron likes you!”
“Does it like me? Maybe, one day, I will have the chance to turn the World Cauldron into a tool-type pet.” David thought to himself.
“We have more matters to deal with now. Once you have claimed your rewards, you may leave.” Hudson Harvey began issuing orders for his guests to leave. Watching David and the others disappear, Hudson Harvey and Lilith Hoyle exchanged looks, then proceeded to the secret chamber at the bottom of the pharmacy building, which was the cultivation place of the Elixir Emperor of Nine-turns.
Meanwhile, as David Jones and the other contestants were receiving their awards at the Pharmacy Conference, the outside world was in an uproar.
The keywords: [Pharmacist of All Time], [Pharmacy Conference Champion], [Perfect Elixir], and [Who is David Jones]shot straight to the top of the Pharmacist Guild’s official website and other news platforms.
“David Jones, at nineteen, has produced a Class V A-tier Perfect Elixir – Energy-increasing Elixir!” This shocking news spread rapidly across the country.
As a result, David Jones’ social media followers soared from tens of millions to a hundred million in an instant.
Countless people commented on his account, including many newcomers seeking exposure.
As the protagonist of the event, David Jones leisurely embarked on his journey home.
“I’m back!”
As soon as he pushed open the door of the villa, David Jones saw an innocentlooking Lolo, holding shiny and familiar fish scales in her hand.
David Jones widened his eyes and swallowed, “Lolo, you didn’t eat Goldy, did you?!”
Lolo blinked and quickly shook her head.
“Chirp!”(Ofld;) (I didn’t! It’s not me!)
Looking at Lolo who leaped to explain crazily, David Jones rubbed his chin and wondered, “Then how do you explain the fish scales in your hand?” “Chirp!”(—.—) (It’s payment!)
Realizing that she couldn’t explain, Lolo waved her little hand, and Goldy appeared on the floor with a golden glow. The pair of dumbfounded eyes looked even more curious than before.
[Pet Name]: Goldy (Red-tailed Goldfish)
[Pet Type]: Dragon
[Species Skill]: Water Jump, Water Absorption
[Grade]: Level VII Fresh
“Well, your power may have increased by one level, but you even learned a new skill! Goldy could be the top genius among the Red-tailed Goldfish species!” David Jones’s face changed slightly as he focused on Goldy’s newskill.
[Skill]: Water Absorption
[Level]: Class II Water Type Skill
[Profile]: In lakes, rivers, streams, and other water-rich areas, it can create a high-speed rotating water column and gather all around moisture together. While it has low power, it can be used to absorb water.
Well, after reading the skill introduction, David Jones felt he had overestimated Goldy. This garbage Water Absorption skill could probably only be used to sprinkle water and grow plants!
Using this skill in battle? That would just get Goldy beaten up!
Disappointed, David Jones grabbed Goldy and asked Lolo, “Did you teach her this Water Absorption skill?”
“Chirp.”(—)~*(Yes, she traded me fish scales for it.)
Lolo proudly nodded, then lifted a large pile of fish scales in her hand.
“Chirp!” (I want crispy fish scales and fish scale jelly!)
Hearing Lolo shout out the names of two dishes, David Jones fell silent.
With such specific dish names, Lolo clearly had this planned all along.
