Professionals of the Starry Skies - Chapter 16

[16. Chapter 16 Jade Skin (Please collect)]

The night in the other world is exceptionally quiet, and the starry sky is exceptionally bright.

Inside the temporary camp.

Fang Xing drank a full pot of fish soup and began to practice the Dalong Posture.

Under the dual effects of the mysterious environment of the other world and the nourishing fish soup, his progress in body training increased rapidly.

An unknown amount of time had passed before the flashing computer screen suddenly froze and a mechanical sound came out:

[Ding, mission accomplished! ]

“Sure enough, after adding books as samples, the decryption progress is very fast…”

Fang Xing came to the computer, clicked on the file, and saw the text from another world, with the corresponding federal text and pronunciation notation next to it.

It can be said that he obtained a dictionary of another world, and it was an audio version.

“In addition, I can also learn about the daily conversations of farmers and gain some insights that can help me better understand the world…”

His eyes lit up and he began to learn foreign languages.

For Fang Xing, learning a foreign language is a very happy thing, especially since it also represents huge benefits!
“First of all, this is the Great Wilderness, and there is a being called ‘Cultivator’!”

“Immortal cultivators! They can refine talismans, elixirs, and magical instruments, and cast spells… and even when they have reached a high level, they can prolong their lifespan, even move mountains and fill the sea, and enjoy immortality?”

“Even if they are just cultivators in the Qi training stage, they are stronger than Xiantian warriors… Well, the Jade Realm warriors in this world are called Xiantian in the localized way…”

“A hundred miles away, there is a market for immortal cultivators called ‘Qinglin Market’. There are tens of thousands of immortal cultivators and countless ordinary people…”

“It is said that Qinglinfang was built not long ago. It was forcibly established by a powerful immortal cultivation force in order to open up the wilderness and relocate a large number of cultivators and mortals… Therefore, the surrounding environment is very dangerous. If you are not a warrior, you have almost no ability to survive.”

“The martial arts of this world are also very simple, just acquired and innate…”

“But no matter how strong a congenital warrior is, he will only die if he faces a well-prepared Qi training cultivator…”

“I’m speechless. When will Wu Dao be able to stand up?”

This is the approximate information that could be obtained from the surveillance during this period of time, which made Fang Xing speechless.

After understanding the background, he immediately looked at the ancient book.

According to the deciphering, the words “Alchemy Evaluation” are inscribed on the cover, and the content describes the appearance and medicinal properties of some common elixirs in Qinglinfang, as well as some simple identification techniques.

Fang Xing took out the three jade bottles, compared them one by one, and found that one bottle contained medicine for wounds and the other contained detoxification pills.

As for the last bottle that had not been opened, it was the ‘Qi and Blood Pill’!
“According to the book, if a post-natal warrior swallows the ‘Qi and Blood Pill’, he can strengthen his Qi and blood, and temper his skin, muscles and bones… and make rapid progress…”

“I still don’t believe it. Let me try it with drug test strips and mice later…”

Fang Xing turned the page and his breathing suddenly became rapid.

He saw the description of a brand new elixir: “Xiantian elixir! White in color, fragrant in taste… Taking it can strengthen the qi of the five internal organs and help acquired warriors break through the innate realm?”

“This kind of ‘Xiantian Pill’ can actually help break through the Jade Realm?”

Fang Xing’s eyes lit up.

The Blue Star Federation’s martial arts realm, the first realm is flesh and skin, the second realm is tendons and bones… It is almost equivalent to the acquired realm in another world.

After the perfection of the tendons and bones, the warrior must temper his internal organs, strengthen his internal breath, and polish it to perfection inside and out, like a rough jade, so it is called the “Raw Jade Realm”!
But this step is very difficult!
Is it so difficult that Xia Long even thinks it is difficult for a college student to come out of the class now!

“But now, only one pill is enough…”

“The Blue Star Federation must have medicines and other equipment that can help second-level warriors break through to the third level… but I can’t get them! The resources required are too great, and the cost is not worth it…”

“But in this different world, that’s not necessarily the case.”

Fang Xing’s eyes suddenly ignited with some kind of flame, and he looked at the ‘Qi and Blood Pill’: “First… we need to verify the medicinal properties of this world’s pills, as well as the toxicity reaction…”

He thought about it, put on the mask, and uncorked the bottle.

In the jade bottle, there are a total of ten blood-red pills.

“Qi and Blood Pills. A warrior only needs to swallow one pill each time he practices, and the effect can last for several days!”

“I always feel that the medicinal pills in this world are very potent. This is not because of advanced technology, but because they are not afraid of waste and use resources to pile them up…”

Fang Xing first took out a Qi and Blood Pill and identified it according to the method of “Dan Dao Ping Jian”.

“According to the book, many cultivators and warriors dare not take elixirs of unknown origin, so the bottom of the bottle of real good elixir has a mark, and there are magic symbols and wax seals on the bottle… Once opened, there will be traces left as a simple anti-counterfeiting mark.”

He looked at the bottom of the jade bottle and indeed found a green leaf mark.

“This should be the mark of a famous merchant in the market, representing credibility…but I don’t believe it!”

Especially since this book “Dandao Pingjian” came from that unlucky guy, we cannot rule out the possibility that he made a fake one.

A bottle of poison pill was forged to be a Qi and Blood Pill, and an instruction manual was also included!

If that’s true, then the female warrior is really a talent!
‘Even if she is investigated by the big forces who forged the mark afterwards, she is dead…’

Fang Xing thought about it, took out the toxin test paper, tested each Qi and Blood Pill first, and found that everything was normal.

I went back to the Eagle Star and bought a cage of mice online.

The logistics arrived quickly. Fang Xing looked at the lively and cute little white mice, leisurely scraped out some crumbs from the pills, and then determined the dosage by comparing the weight of the human with that of the little white mice.

This step is critical!

Otherwise, in terms of the dosage for humans, even a life-saving medicine could poison the mouse to death!

…

The next day.

Fang Xing got up and looked at the little white mice, and found that they were all lively and energetic.

squeak!

squeak!

The little white mice ran around, hitting and biting the iron cage, as if they had a lot of energy in their bodies that they were unable to release.

“Yeah, you all look very energetic… I’ll take you over there to eat berries someday!”

He nodded, carefully put away the ‘Qi and Blood Pill’, and went straight to school.

Although both tests did not find any problems.

But just in case, Fang Xing decided to take the medicine next to the infirmary, so that even if something happened, he could be rescued.

“I seem to have…thought too much of the dark side of human nature.”

“But even so, my life is more important than anything else…”

If Fang Xing had not seen the news about the Xiantian Pill and was prepared to verify the effects of the pill from another world, he would not have been so radical.

He came to Yucai Middle School and skipped Lan Fei’s cultural classes.

Now, this female projection teacher could no longer shake his mood in the slightest.

Outside the infirmary.

Fang Xing found an open space, stretched out his hand and yawned.

Silently, he covered a Qi and Blood Pill with his palm and put it directly into his mouth.

“It’s hot. It’s so hot!”

As the pill entered his stomach, Fang Xing first felt a stream of heat flowing from his lower abdomen to his limbs and bones.

The constant generation of qi and blood made his face flush, his skin tense, and the veins underneath wriggled like earthworms.

His entire body seemed to have turned into a melting pot of blood and energy, and he urgently needed to find a way to vent it.

The next moment, Fang Xing immediately deployed the “Big Dragon Posture”!
The skilled Big Dragon Posture performed with a charm like flowing clouds and water.

As the most suitable stance for refining the skin and flesh developed with great effort by the Blue Star Federation, Fang Xing felt the difference instantly.

The vigorous energy and blood in his body seemed like a mountain torrent that had found an outlet and immediately began to erupt violently.

The skin began to crack and even bleed…

On the attribute panel, the state column (Skin Refining: 99/100) flickered and immediately changed to (Skin Refining: 100/100)!
“Skin Refining is complete!”

Fang Xing’s heart moved, and his skin tensed up, as if it had become strong in an instant, like cowhide, and exuding a brass color.

The next moment, a large amount of Qi and blood was consumed, but the brass color gradually faded away, turning into a ‘white as jade’ feeling.

“Is this… jade skin? My standing power hasn’t been broken through yet?”

“No, this is equivalent to using a large amount of resources to force a breakthrough. It doesn’t matter if the pile power can’t keep up… The resources consumed by this Qi and Blood Pill may be more than ten or a hundred bottles of ‘D3 Level Nutrient Solution’!”

“The resources in this other world are truly rich…”

The jade-like light covering Fang Xing’s skin flashed slightly, and then disappeared without a trace.

As a ‘Jade Skin’ that has been perfectly refined, the only outward appearance is that the skin is whiter, but in fact Fang Xing feels as if he is wearing a layer of armor, and it can even actively dissipate force.

“It’s just a Qi and Blood Pill… but it actually allowed me to make such great progress in my physical training?”

Fang Xing stared at the attribute column:

[Name: Fang Xing]

Age: 16

[Occupation: Warrior]

[First level: Skin and flesh (refining flesh: 9/100)]

[12 Military Boxing Styles: 10/100 (Proficient)]

[Big Dragon Posture: 35/100 (Proficient)]

【Gate of the Heavens (Charging)】

…

“The Great Dragon Pillar has also made rapid progress, but the key is the progress of the Flesh Refining. How could it suddenly jump to 9%?”

Fang Xing pondered for a moment: “This may be because when I trained the membrane before, I must have also trained my muscles. The more important thing is naturally the effect of the ‘Qi and Blood Pill’.”

“Each pill is like this. After taking this bottle, I should be close to perfecting my flesh refining… After all, Qi and Blood Pills are originally for acquired martial artists to practice, and the so-called acquired martial artists in the other world actually encompass the two realms of ‘flesh’ and ‘tendons and bones’ of the Blue Star Federation!”

“That is to say, the Qi and Blood Pill is very effective for the second-level muscle and bone warriors. It would be a bit of a waste for me to take it at my current level…”

After a little exercise, Fang Xing felt like he had been reborn.

At least, when the membrane is fully grown and turns into jade skin, the foundation is quite solid.

“Well, to be on the safe side, let’s go for a physical examination first…”

Fang Xing made a decision and walked towards the infirmary.

Just as I reached the door, another classmate came towards me.

He took a closer look and immediately raised his hand to greet him: “Ah Wei?”

“Ah…Axing?”

When Liu Wei saw Fang Xing, he was immediately shocked.

“Are you coming to the infirmary too?”

Fang Xing nodded: “I’ll do a physical examination, how about you?”

“I…my stomach hurts!”

Liu Wei suddenly hugged his stomach: “No, you go first, I’m going to the toilet first…”

“Well……”

Looking at the other person’s back, Fang Xing shook his head and walked into the infirmary calmly.

He was already a “genius” certified by Xia Long, and just completing the skin refining was nothing.

As for the ‘jade skin’? As long as he didn’t do any relevant tests, the ordinary doctors in the infirmary would naturally not be able to see any clues.
