Chapter 148: Second Phase Of His Cultivation Journey
The pill sitting atop his hands rubbed Han Xuhan the wrong way for some reason. It was a dark blue, standard capsule-sized object, and it made no sense to him how this pill could actually make his damaged body recover to nearly 80 percent of its original healthy state.
He had read a lot about such pills in cultivation novels. But seeing one in real life, knowing it had those amazing capabilities despite being just a mixture of herbs and chemicals cooked on a glorified frying pan...
In the end, he could only justify the logic with the fact that the world of cultivation was a place of magical wonders, and swallow it down with a gulp of catalytic solution that the healer had handed him.
Out of curiosity, he asked the healer whether there were pills that could directly advance his cultivation base too.
After a meaningful slap on the back of his head, the answer he got was a lengthy, aggressive lecture on how using pills to advance one’s cultivation was an absolute taboo. It went directly against everything orthodox cultivation stood for.
Not just that, such foundations built with artificial forces and external resources were so weak that the practitioner would never even survive the first round of heavenly tribulation, rendering the whole endeavor, as well as the resources piled on him, into utter waste!
It left him feeling rather regretful. Although he personally hated it when Protagonists in cultivation novels skipped realms by chugging pills, not being able to resort to the same method himself was so frustrating!
The process that took place following his consumption of the pill was not as unpleasant as he had thought it would be. The healer used a Mystic Art to keep his sensory nerves dulled down to a minimum and guided the pill’s reactions inside his body. The only thing Han Xuhan could feel during that process was that his internal organs were making some crazy movements, audible to the whole room.
Once the whole ordeal was over, the mirror in the room displayed his old self once more, albeit looking like he had missed a few meals recently. He had probably regained 90% of his weight by now.
