Chapter 199: Chapter 128 Diligent Efforts_4
"A minor Nirvana Pill? What’s that?"
"I’ve never heard of that name."
"Nirvana, huh? Quite an impressive name for it, isn’t it just some kind of mighty pill?"
"Have you guys ever heard of the minor Nirvana Pill?"
"No, we’ve never heard of such a pill." ƒrēenovelkiss.com
"A bunch of ignorant folks." In the hall, an old man with graying hair, wearing a white robe embroidered with a pill furnace, stood up and walked towards this area.
"Elder Dan Chi from Drunken Pill Peak."
Around him, everyone stepped aside to give way when they saw the elder.
Within the Hundred Peaks Sect, Drunken Pill Peak held a very special position. Although its rank wasn’t particularly high—only thirty-fifth—even those from the Top Ten Peaks gave Drunken Pill Peak respect.
Drunken Pill Peak was dedicated solely to the art of alchemy, with its name signifying the intoxication for the Alchemy Dao. Its ranking wasn’t high simply because its disciples were solely focused on alchemy.
But who didn’t need pills for cultivation? Who didn’t find themselves needing Drunken Pill Peak’s help at some point? Everyone showed respect to those from Drunken Pill Peak.
As Elder Dan Chi walked forward, he slowly spoke, "The minor Nirvana Pill is made specifically for cultivators with Immortal Bodies like the Vermilion Bird, the Azure Pheasant, and the Bi Fang.
Even if they are critically injured and on the verge of death—so long as they are not truly dead—a single minor Nirvana Pill would allow them to experience a Nirvana Rebirth.
What’s more important is that after Nirvana, their combat power can at least return to their former peak state.
Even more so, in the brink of death, they might gain enlightenment and ascend to a higher level. This pill, though unknown to you all, should certainly be known to both Chief Tu and Peak Master Chen."
Chen Qingluan’s expression revealed surprise when she heard Cao Zhen mention possessing the minor Nirvana Pill, yet she nodded and acknowledged, "That’s right, I do indeed know of this pill."
"There really is such a pill!"
The crowd around them exclaimed in shock upon hearing this.
"It can recover from a near-death state?"
"And return to their peak condition—that’s just too defying!"
"People can recover from serious injuries through taking medicinal pills, but often they might leave behind hidden issues, impeding any further progress for life, whereas this pill apparently can restore one completely."
"You can recover even from near death? It is said that one can achieve insights on the verge of death, gaining enlightenment over things that you couldn’t understand before. By that logic, if you kept taking this pill..."
"There’s actually such a pill in the world!"
Shi Xiaolou’s face soured as he listened to the crowd. That Cao Zhen—he did whatever Xiaolou did, matching his every move. And now he offered a pill that far surpassed Xiaolou’s own!
The pill Xiaolou had offered, the Jade Clear Return to Origin Pill—there was no guarantee it could bring someone back from a near-death state, and even if it could, the person was likely to be left with internal injuries. In contrast, the minor Nirvana Pill was a guaranteed revival and even ensured the restoration of one’s peak state. Compared to his, Xiaolou’s pill was utterly overshadowed!
Was Cao Zhen deliberately making Xiaolou look bad?
As Chen Qingluan listened to the murmurs around her, she spoke again, "Not only am I aware of this pill, but we also have a few minor Nirvana Pills on my peak. However, it’s not like what you all might think, because the minor Nirvana Pill can only be taken once. The second time it’s taken, it won’t have any effect at all."
With that, she looked towards Tu Zhuque and said, "Not just my peak has the minor Nirvana Pill, Vermilion Bird Peak has it too."
"So that’s how it is."
"Indeed, if such a pill could be taken endlessly, it would be too heaven-defying."
"So Vermilion Bird Peak also has the minor Nirvana Pill."
"The pill that Peak Master Cao offered is something they already possess."
Upon hearing this, the crowd burst into chatter again. Cao Zhen’s generosity was undeniable, and they couldn’t criticize the pill’s quality any longer. Instead, they focused on him giving a pill that the recipient already had.
Shi Xiaolou’s expression eased slightly. In this way, he wasn’t as embarrassed, but it still wasn’t enough.
Suddenly, he had an idea and secretly communicated to Qu Qingqing, "It seems the Immortal Li Ke from the Hundred Peaks Sect is very caring towards her Dao partner."
"What do you mean?" As Qu Qingqing communicated back secretly, she looked bewilderedly at her own Dao partner.
Shi Xiaolou explained secretly, "The minor Nirvana Pill exists on Azure Pheasant Peak and on Vermilion Bird Peak. And anyone could get their hands on that ordinary-looking jade bottle."
"I understand now." Qu Qingqing suddenly realized, "Li Ke must have given the pill to Cao Zhen in advance; their Vermilion Bird Peak is really interesting."
Qu Qingqing, who had been silent since entering Vermilion Bird Peak, sneered inwardly and feigned confusion as she said, "Actually, I also know that we have the minor Nirvana Pill on Azure Pheasant Peak, and to my knowledge, within the entire Hundred Peaks Sect, only our Azure Pheasant Peak and Vermilion Bird Peak possess it. I wonder, from which eminent figure did Peak Master Cao obtain this minor Nirvana Pill?"
"Only Azure Pheasant Peak and Vermilion Bird Peak have it?"
The people around began to put two and two together after hearing this.
"This... Could it be that Immortal Li Ke gave one of the minor Nirvana Pills to Cao Zhen ahead of time, and then he turned around and offered it?"
"What do you mean ’could it be’? It surely is so. Otherwise, how could Four Treasures Peak get their hands on such a pill?"
"He’s not just claiming to own the minor Nirvana Pill—he probably hadn’t even heard of it before Immortal Li Ke gave it to him."
"It makes sense now why such a pill was in such an ordinary jade bottle. If it’s indeed from Immortal Li Ke, everything makes sense now."
