Chapter 224: Chapter 224: Divine Medicine Blood Bodhi_1
Although most of the people in the hall were ordinary folks, there was still someone with a keen eye. After hearing the surrounding chaos of voices calling out “little tomatoes, little tomatoes,” this person finally couldn’t restrain themselves anymore and loudly said to the crowd, “Stop your noise, this isn’t some little tomato, this is the legendary Divine Medicine Blood Bodhi from Yan Country!”
“What?”
“Damn!”
“No way?”
A stir went through the hall. Although they didn’t know what Blood Bodhi was, the title of a legendary divine medicine was quite impressive indeed.
Wang Fangtong on the stage, upon hearing this person’s words, revealed a knowing smile. She picked up the microphone and said to the audience below, “Our distinguished guests do indeed have broad knowledge. This gentleman is correct, the final treasure in the box is indeed the Divine Medicine, Blood Bodhi, a legacy of our Yan Country that is said to be produced only once every thousand years!”
“This Blood Bodhi is no ordinary item. It can only grow in uninhabited primeval forests, and in these forests, there are many ferocious beasts roaming, such as crocodiles, cheetahs, tigers, and even the mythical pythons that are said to be tens of meters long.”
“This Blood Bodhi was found by an exploration team of fifty people. When they entered the forest, they were equipped with the world’s most advanced weapons and various scientific instruments, but when they emerged, only three were left.”
“So, Blood Bodhi truly is cultivated with fresh blood. The lives of dozens of people were lost just to obtain this single divine medicine. Now tell me, do you still think this little tomato is ordinary?” Elder Lin swept his gaze around with a serious look and asked the audience below.
“That’s terrifying, all that just for gathering this medicine?”
“Indeed, it is the highlight treasure, its value can’t be measured by money alone.”
“Once every thousand years? Is this darn thing the Queen Mother’s peach or what?”
Though startled by the origin of the Blood Bodhi, people still had many questions about this item.
What exactly are the effects of this small red fruit that make people risk their lives to harvest it?
Inside Box No.8, upon hearing Elder Wang’s introduction of the Blood Bodhi, Zhao Dong also showed an incredulous expression. A bit curiously, he asked Xu Fan, “Young Master, what sort of magic does this Blood Bodhi possess that so many would risk their lives to find it?”
“This Blood Bodhi is essentially a type of medicinal ingredient. Just as Elder Wang mentioned, this isn’t just any ordinary ingredient anymore, but a Spiritual Medicine that can only be nurtured in places where nature’s spiritual energy is most abundant. That’s why such medicinal ingredients can only be found in uninhabited primeval forests. However, these places, rich in nature’s spiritual energy, not only nurture medicinal ingredients but also ferocious beasts. So even if the exploration team had the most advanced weapons, they would still be doomed to fail in these forests.”
“However, the fact that someone could bring back this Blood Bodhi alive is already quite an impressive feat. This medicine transcends ordinary herbal gathering; though it cannot truly bring the dead back to life or mend bones from flesh, any mortal who has but a breath left in them, after consuming this Blood Bodhi, would gain a significant extension of their lifespan.”
“To say it cures all diseases is a modest claim. But the Blood Bodhi’s greater effect is not in healing, but in enhancing the realms of martial artists. For any martial artist on Sea Blue Star, no matter their rank, as long as they are below the Grandmaster, consuming this Blood Bodhi would instantly elevate their Martial Dao Cultivation by one level. If they are in the Strong Body Realm, they would directly enter the Qi Drawing Realm; if in the Qi Drawing Realm, upon consumption, they would be directly promoted to a Martial Arts Grandmaster!”
As soon as Xu Fan’s voice faded, Mo Luo Dan in the private room revealed a fanatical gleam. To advance directly from the Qi Drawing Realm to the Grandmaster Realm, this medicine was just too powerful. Mo Luo Dan knew all too well the struggle; after ten years of arduous cultivation within the Spirit Attracting Formation on Yulong Mountain, he had barely reached the threshold from the Qi Drawing Realm to becoming a Martial Arts Grandmaster. He never imagined that such a small fruit could equate to his ten years of hard training.
Moreover, in this world, many martial artists do not possess the roots and talent to reach the Grandmaster Realm.
Since childhood, Mo Luo Dan had been the personally taught disciple of the Moro Sect’s leader, which signified his excellent aptitude and roots; only thus had he found the threshold to the Grandmaster Realm after ten years of hardship. But in this world, ninety-five percent of martial artists are simply not blessed with the roots for the Grandmaster Realm from birth. The Qi Drawing Realm is the pinnacle of martial cultivation they could hope to reach in their lifetime. Their martial prowess can no longer advance an inch by their own abilities.
Only this Blood Bodhi could elevate their martial prowess to the peak of the Grandmaster Realm.
A true martial artist yearns to reach the Grandmaster Realm, so Mo Luo Dan’s gaze at the Blood Bodhi was the same as a wild beast eyeing its prey, flashing with naked desire to possess.
“Mo Luo Dan, what’s the fuss about? Just focus on practicing your Dragon King Kong Zen. In less than a month, you will enter the Grandmaster Realm. If the Blood Bodhi is given to you, wouldn’t it be like giving a ginseng fruit to Zhu Bajie?” Seeing Mo Luo Dan’s excitement, Xu Fan slowly said to him.
“The young master is right, I got a bit carried away!” Mo Luo Dan bowed slightly to Xu Fan, thinking that he was indeed not someone used to seeing the world. The young master had already paved his path to the Grandmaster Realm, so why should he covet this elixir? Besides, he was nothing more than a mountain-born ‘Tai Shan’, with no money in his pocket to participate in the auction.
Xu Fan slowly observed the Blood Bodhi on Elder Wang’s table, having been the Five-Direction Heavenly Emperor in his past life; he had already seen countless top-tier spiritual medicines, so he was extremely familiar with the Blood Bodhi.
This Blood Bodhi could not only be consumed directly to advance a martial artist’s cultivation by one level but could also be used to refine a potent elixir— the Blood Qilin Pill.
However, apart from the Blood Bodhi as the primary ingredient, there was another essential component required for this elixir, and that was Qilin Blood.
In his previous life, Xu Fan had one of the Five Great Holy Beasts, the Qilin, under his command, so he used Qilin Blood as if it were tap water that cost nothing, having as much as he needed.
In this life, having come to this spiritual energy-depleted planet, he originally thought it impossible to refine the Blood Qilin Pill. But a few days ago, Tongtong’s new companion, Ben Ben, whom Xu Fan found, was a Spirit Beast with Qilin Bloodline. Using special methods, Xu Fan could extract the Qilin Blood from it.
With the addition of the Blood Bodhi from today’s auction, the Blood Qilin Pill, which generally only appears within the Cultivation World, had its two primary ingredients presented right before Xu Fan.
Thus, Xu Fan firmly resolved to secure this Blood Bodhi at all costs.
