Ever since ancient martial arts had appeared, it had developed to the present day and could be said to be very prosperous. Since ancient martial arts had appeared, there were naturally all kinds of medicinal pills. Zhou Ping himself had eaten countless medicinal pills, and the effects were all different. Moreover, with the advancement of science and technology, all kinds of nutrition agents and medicines made using scientific methods also had very powerful effects.
However, whether it was the pills that Zhou Ping had eaten or the potions that were made using technological means, in the end, they were only refined and processed using various medicinal herbs. The legendary pills that could prolong life or bring the dead back to life and flesh and bones had never been produced.
However, just because it could not be produced did not mean that it did not exist!
In some ancient ruins, they had indeed discovered pills with incredible abilities. Although it wasn't as powerful as immortality, he had found pills that could extend one's lifespan, improve one's aptitude, and increase one's cultivation.
One pill could extend one's lifespan by ten years or more.
One pill could save sixty years of hard work.
A single pill could make a severely injured person on the verge of death come back to life in the blink of an eye.
The various incredible abilities of the medicinal pill made countless people dumbfounded and rush over like ducks. This kind of pill with incredible power was called an "immortal pill".
How were immortal pills concocted? No one knew. Even with the best technology and the best researchers, they could not solve the mystery of the immortal pill.
Until... the secret record of medicinal pills appeared.
The Secret Records of Medicinal Pills did not refer to a book, but a general term for a type of book. This kind of book did not record any cultivation techniques. There was only one thing on it-how to refine pills and the pill formula.
So far, only two secret records of medicinal pills had appeared. Unfortunately, these two secret records of medicinal pills were unfortunately completely destroyed when several large factions were fighting over them. Even the possessors of the pill secret records were all killed. After investigation, the ancestors of the owners of these secret records of medicinal pills had mysteriously disappeared for a period of time. Thus, everyone guessed that this should be an extremely secretive inheritance.
"You have a secret record of pills? He actually dared to take it out? Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?" Zhou Ping looked at the bald man in surprise.
"I'm scared! So I'm planning to offer it up?”The bald man smiled bitterly.
Zhou Ping shook his head and didn't say anything.
Some things, even if you gave them up, you still wouldn't be able to avoid disaster. For example, if you offered up the secret pill manual, who knew if you had learned it yourself? Did you make a backup? When the news was leaked, countless people would come to harass and force them, and they would even use all sorts of methods.
Not only that, would the person who obtained the pill secret record kill him to keep the secret? Would he exterminate the entire family in order to make the secret pill record in his hands unique?
Everything was filled with the unknown. Taking out this thing was equivalent to gambling with his life.
"I also know that taking out this thing must be very dangerous, but I have no choice. If I don't take this out, I'm afraid I won't even be able to live for a month. I might as well take a gamble. Moreover…Young Master would know once he saw this pill secret record.”
The bald man fumbled around his waist and took out a book.
Zhou Ping reached out to take the book. The feeling of holding it stunned Zhou Ping.
It wasn't paper or leather. It felt like jade, but it was very soft, light, and thin.
Zhou Ping did not stand on ceremony. He flipped open the secret record of medicinal pills on the spot.
What entered his eyes was a series of strange symbols. He could not understand what they were at all. When Zhou Ping closed his eyes, he realized that he couldn't remember any of the symbols.
It was too strange!
One had to know that with Zhou Ping's current ability, having a photographic memory was just an ordinary thing. Zhou Ping could recite a book with hundreds of thousands of words without missing a single word after flipping through it once. But with such an amazing memory, he couldn't even remember a single symbol on the secret record of medicinal pills. This was simply unbelievable.
"Young Master, do you understand? I couldn't understand what it was, and I couldn't remember it at all. These symbols were forgotten in the blink of an eye, and he couldn't even copy them.”
The bald man stared at Zhou Ping and said carefully.
Zhou Ping couldn't understand these symbols either, but he wasn't disappointed. He still had the system. Perhaps he could rely on the system to learn this secret pill manual.
Zhou Ping didn't care if he could remember it or not. He quickly flipped through the secret record of medicinal pills.
"Ding…Detected that the host has a purple cultivation method,'Basic Alchemy Technique'.”
Sure enough, it worked. Moreover, it was a purple cultivation technique!
Zhou Ping was stunned, and his heart began to beat wildly.
Purple cultivation technique! A purple cultivation technique that had not been optimized! Moreover, he could bypass the symbols that he could not understand and learn it directly!
This was simply a pie smashing into his head!
Zhou Ping took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. Then, he ordered with a trembling voice.
"Deduction and optimization."
" Deduction optimization begins…Deduction optimization completed…"
Unlike the previous instant-based optimization, the system took more than ten seconds to complete the optimization.
Zhou Ping was shocked. Even if it was to derive a purple cultivation technique, the system would complete it in an instant. This time, it actually took more than ten seconds. How powerful was the secret manual deduced?
Could it be a golden cultivation technique?
Zhou Ping started to check with a perturbed heart.
A stream of consciousness surged into Zhou Ping's mind. This stream of consciousness actually carried a faint golden light.
" It really is a golden cultivation technique!" Zhou Ping was excited.
It took Zhou Ping a full ten minutes to wake up. The excitement on his face disappeared, and his expression became strange.
"The result of the deduction is that the purple cultivation method,'Initial Alchemy Comprehension', has been optimized to the pseudo-gold cultivation method,' True Alchemy Comprehension'.”
The pseudo-gold cultivation technique surpassed the purple cultivation technique, but it could not compare to the true gold cultivation technique.
Zhou Ping was a little disappointed. He had thought that a golden cultivation technique would appear. But in the blink of an eye, Zhou Ping laughed at himself for being too greedy.
"When did I become so unsatisfied? It was already extremely lucky to be able to refine a pale golden pseudo-golden cultivation technique. As expected, he had expected too much.”
Ever since he had the system, everything had been smooth sailing. Unknowingly, Zhou Ping had actually developed the mentality of looking down on everything. Sensing the change in his mentality, Zhou Ping smiled bitterly. If one's temperament wasn't good enough, they would sooner or later encounter all kinds of difficulties. Fortunately, he noticed the change in his mentality in time and made adjustments accordingly. Otherwise, there would be problems in the future.
"Ding…host, do you wish to use the upgrade points to learn the cultivation technique?”
The system's voice interrupted Zhou Ping's thoughts.
"Upgrade the cultivation technique." Zhou Ping nodded secretly.
"The pseudo-gold cultivation technique,[True Understanding of Medicinal Pills], has three levels. [Upgrade required: 1000 points, 2000 points, 3000 points.] Confirm upgrade?"
" Hiss…" Zhou Ping gasped.
