23 Holy Medicine, Immortal Ginseng!
"Immortal Ginseng!"
He really found a heaven and earth treasure in this place!
He saw the golden ginseng-like plant lying on the ground in a battered state. Its leaves were shredded and torn, and its main body was full of cracks. It was obvious that his earlier attack managed to severely injure this creature.
Li Changsheng couldn't hide his excitement as he recognized the holy medicine in front of him.
Immortal Ginseng was one of the best among the top-grade holy medicines.
It had two incredible effects upon consumption: firstly, prolonging lifespan, and secondly, healing any injuries.
By consuming the leaf of this plant, anyone below the Saint realm could instantly increase their lifespan by ten years. If a Saint consumed this Immortal Ginseng, he or she could increase their lifespan by one year!
When one's realm had reached such a terrifying state and was nearly at the end of their life, let alone one year, even one day of lifespan was enough to drive countless powerhouses crazy.
However, for Li Changsheng, who had an infinite lifespan, this effect wasn't as attractive as its second effect: perfect recovery!
The legend said that the healing effect of Immortal Ginseng was on par with the legendary Panacea, or Phoenix's feather, which was rumored to be able to bring dead people back to life.
With just one stalk of this Immortal Ginseng, even if you were dead, as long as your soul hadn't dissipated, you could use it to reshape your flesh and blood and be resurrected to your best state.
In addition, even a drop of Immortal Ginseng liquid could be used to refine an extremely terrifying healing pills—Rebirth Pills!
This legendary pill was rumoured to be able to heal any mortal wounds and restore one condition back to its peak as long as there was still one breath left in one's body. Even severed limbs and broken dantian and meridian could be restored in a blink of an eye!
What's more magical about this medicine was that its effect wouldn't deteriorate with the passing of time!
Owning this pill was equivalent to having a second life and would be a great trump card in a death-and-life situation!
"I make a great fortune this time!" Li Changsheng felt a sense of joy bubbling up in his heart, 'til it surfaced on his handsome face in the form of a massive grin.
It was holy medicine, THE holy medicine!
Holy molly!
Every piece of this stuff was a national treasure.
Even the Great Desolate Kingdom, as the former overlord of the Eastern Desolate Kingdom with more than a thousand years of history, was only in possession of less than ten holy medicines, most of which had been offered as tribute for the slumbering ancestors.
And a medicine of this grade would never come out in an auction unless the Auction House or the organization behind them wanted to invite self-made disasters.
At the very least, no saint would be able to resist the temptation of such medicine. And it could even catch the interest of a Paragon who was in urgent need of resources.
Even if they had a great background, it was impossible for them to resist the joint effort of many Saints and Paragon.
That was how precious holy medicine was.
And this time, Li Changsheng got it for free!
How could he not feel ecstatic in his heart?!
"If I can culture this Immortal Ginseng, I won't have to worry about getting hurt in the future."
Li Changsheng could already imagine that in the future, when he was cornered by his enemy and the enemy had complacently thought that they would be the winner, he would take out one of these ginsengs and then turn around the situation in one fell swoop!
What kind of face would they make?
How much despair would they feel after being sure of their victory only to be trampled on in the next second?
How fun would it be to act like a pig to eat a tiger, giving them a taste of the face-slapping counterattack trope?
Hehehe, it must be satisfying!
Suddenly, he felt a soft tugging on the corner of his clothes. Turning around, his eyes met Chang'e's curious eyes.
"Changsheng, are you thinking something bad?"
"Huh?" Taken aback by Chang'e's question out of nowhere, Li Changsheng accidentally blurted out his thoughts. "How did you know?"
Chang'e tilted her head innocently, her finger pointing out at his lips. "You smile. It somehow makes my heart palpitate."
Li Changsheng said teasingly, grinning, "Maybe, I'm thinking of doing a bad thing to you?"
"Bad thing?"
There's no fear in Chang'e's eyes, only curiosity.
A voice deep in her heart told her that the man in front of her would never hurt her in the slightest. So, what kind of bad thing would he do? She couldn't help but be curious.
Li Changsheng extended his hand and rubbed her smooth cheek, his voice deep and dangerous. "Like what we did before, but next time I might do more… I might even make you cry. So, how do you think?"
Her white skin started to be shrouded in a haze of pink. Although there was a faint trace of shyness in her eyes, she didn't turn away from Li Changsheng's heated gaze.
She muttered softly, "As long as it's Changsheng. It's fine. You saved my life. So, I'm yours. You can do anything you want."
Li Changsheng's gaze softened, and he patted Chang'e's head gently. "Good girl. I'll reward you later." To which she responded with a simple nod, like an obedient little wife.
Then he walked over to the Immortal Ginseng, collected it, and quickly stored it in the spatial ring.
Although the ginseng looked pitiful right now, Li Changsheng knew that it was only temporary.
There was another reason that a holy medicine was called a holy medicine: it's because they had gained spirituality!
A top-grade holy medicine such as Immortal Ginseng might even form self-consciousness and gain human-like intelligence, meaning that they know how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages and could even heal themselves.
If it reached a certain level, they might be able to transform into humanoid form and learn the way of cultivation!
So, it was better to be prudent and act as quickly as possible before it regained its strength and started resisting.
After putting the Immortal Ginseng into his spatial ring, Li Changsheng hummed happily as he counted his harvest today.
Not only did he manage to find the rumored Holy Medicine, but he also made a girl as beautiful and mysterious as Chang'e his own!
He couldn't help but offer his gratitude to Li Tianji, who because of his overly cautious and paranoid nature, imprisoned him in this Eternal Dungeon, in which his disaster turned into a great blessing!
He made a promise to himself to reward his little brother with the cruelest act of revenge he could muster, so as not to let down his great kindness toward him.
See? He, Li Changsheng, was someone who could clearly distinguish between kindness and grudge!
