The herb garden outside the village was very big and all the spirit herbs that Apothecary had found in Great Ruins were planted inside. This had long made the villagers envious but Apothecary had raised numerous dangerous little bugs in the herb garden so no one dared to steal the herbs.
There were very few people in Great Ruins so there were a lot of spirit herbs and precious items. Apothecary had plucked countless rare herbs and transplanted them into the herb garden. He rarely used these spirit herbs and now he had finally decided to use them on Qin Mu!
One had to know that his horizons were very high and the spirit herbs he had plucked were all precious items. Any one of them could cause a commotion so Apothecary had definitely put in a lot of effort!
The bonfire gradually extinguished and the villagers returned to their houses to rest. Qin Mu also returned to his room and slept in the outer room. Not long later, he fell into a deep sleep. Madam Si lifted the blanket for him and looked at the youth who was sleeping soundly. She gave a caring smile.
"My Mu'er … No matter if you're the Overlord Body or not, you're still a child that I raised. I won't let anyone or anything hurt you!"
She was still intelligent and could see many things from the expressions of Village Chief and Apothecary during the bonfire celebration but she didn't expose them.
She tiptoed into the inner room to sleep.
The next day, Blind rushed into the house excitedly with his bamboo cane and shouted, "Mu'er, wake up quickly, it's daybreak, Apothecary …"
"I'm not awake yet, how dare you peep at me, Blind!"
With a loud boom, Qin Mu opened his sleepy eyes and saw Blind flying out of Madam Si's room. He drew an arc in the sky and flew out of the village, landing somewhere unknown.
"Grandpa Blind is truly remarkable!"
Qin Mu exclaimed in admiration. Blind was still holding onto his bamboo cane and sitting cross-legged in mid-air with an innocent look yet he was kicked away just like that.
Qin Mu got out of bed and washed up before making breakfast. He then ate breakfast with Madam Si and washed the pots, bowls and ladles. He then saw Blind running back excitedly from outside the village and shouting, "Damned old woman, your kick was so ruthless that I almost didn't get it back! Mu 'er, come over quickly, Apothecary has made some medicine for you! "
Madam Si had an unfriendly expression as she glared fiercely at Blind. She stood up and staggered away, "I'm going to Border Dragon City to do some business. Blind, I'll leave Mu'er to you for the next few days. If he loses a single strand of hair when he returns, I will hold you responsible! Old Ma, Old Ma, is the ox cart ready? Cripple, is the raft fixed? "
Qin Mu hurriedly followed Blind to the apothecary's shop. Before he even walked in, he smelled a strong medicinal fragrance. He then saw a huge vat floating in the air with several vermillion birds flying around it. The flames between the birds' feathers burned fiercely, burning the exterior of the vat scarlet red. Gurgling sounds came from inside.
"Mu 'er, this is your medicine."
When Apothecary saw Qin Mu had arrived, he took out the last medicine which was a piece of green leaf and threw it into the huge vat. Just as this piece of green leaf fell into the medicinal water, the boiling medicinal water instantly became incomparably viscous.
Apothecary casually flicked his wrist and the huge vat spun rapidly. Clanking sounds then came from the vat and the vat that was filled with medicine actually turned into half a vat of white pills. As the vat rolled, the pills collided with each other, giving off a crisp metallic sound.
Apothecary waved his hand and the few vermillion birds flew out of the window and disappeared.
When the huge vat landed on the ground, Qin Mu was speechless, "Grandpa Apothecary, do I have to eat so many pills today?"
"If you eat all of them, you'll die."
Apothecary said unhurriedly, "My cauldron of medicine is made with the best quality spirit herbs. Even though it's the lowest grade Vitality Reinforcement Pill, one pill is better than a hundred pills from other apothecaries. You can only eat one or two pills at a time, no more. "
Qin Mu was skeptical. In the past, Apothecary had also fed him some weird medicine and every time, it would fill up a big bowl. However, he was only eating one pill now, how could the medicinal power be so strong?
Blind also didn't believe it and said, "Even the swindlers of the martial arts world say one pill is better than a hundred pills. Is your medicine really that strong? However, this medicine is quite fragrant. "
Apothecary gave a sinister smile, "Why don't you try eating this whole vat of medicine?"
"Mu 'er, why don't you grab a handful and try it?" Blind tempted him.
Qin Mu wouldn't be tempted by him and only pinched one pill and put it into his mouth.
When this spirit pill entered his stomach, he immediately felt that something was wrong. It was as if there were hundreds and thousands of fire dragons, water dragons, gold dragons, and wood dragons overturning rivers and seas in his stomach, causing his body to be tall, short, fat, and skinny for a while. Sometimes, a layer of ice would form on the surface of his body. Sometimes, even his clothes would sprout and the fur on his beast skin would grow crazily. Sometimes, his clothes would be dyed with a layer of metallic color and even his skin would become hard. His entire body seemed to be cast from metal!
What was even more terrifying was that sometimes, all kinds of symptoms would erupt together, causing Qin Mu to suffer unspeakably.
He gave a grunt and immediately executed 'Overlord Body Three Elixir Technique', using his vital qi to dissolve the medicinal energy!
Blind's expression changed drastically and cried out, "Apothecary, this Vitality Reinforcement Pill of yours doesn't seem to be an ordinary Vitality Reinforcement Pill!"
"That's right. Ordinary Vitality Reinforcement Pills are divided into four types, Fire Vitality Pill, Water Vitality Pill, Gold Vitality Pill, and Wood Vitality Pill. "
Apothecary gave a sinister smile, "Vitality Reinforcement Pill targets the four attributes of the vital qi of the four great spirit bodies and nourishes the vital qi of the spirit bodies. However, Mu 'er's Overlord Body's vital qi doesn't have any attributes so I used a compromise method to refine spirit herbs of the four attributes into this Vitality Reinforcement Pill which contains four attributes. Who knows, it might be able to activate the power of the Overlord Body's vital qi. This kind of spirit pill can only be absorbed and dissolved by Mu 'er's Overlord Body's vital qi. If you had eaten this vat of Vitality Reinforcement Pills, hehe … "
Blind shuddered. The vital qi of the four attributes clashed with each other. If he had eaten it, he was afraid that his power would have been dissolved by twenty to thirty percent. Of course, this was the consequence of eating an entire vat of Vitality Reinforcement Pills. If it was only one pill, it wouldn't be a big deal to him.
"Apothecary, are you refining a tonic or a poison?" Blind muttered.
