Free Web NovelChapter 648: Chapter 358: Refining the Heart Demon
After Su Que conceived this idea, he returned to the mansion.
He entered the stone chamber, closed the door securely, and took out two Enchanting Immortal Pills from the storage bag.
One was given by Xiahou Lu to every household after the neighbors, Lin Dong, had just refined the Enchanting Immortal Pill.
The other was delivered by a waiter in the restaurant.
Su Que consumed these two Enchanting Immortal Pills.
After the stomach acid digested the Enchanting Immortal Pills, a peculiar sensation quickly surged into his heart.
However, it wasn’t as frenzied as Su Que imagined.
’It seems that my physique can resist the effects of this Enchanting Immortal Pill.’
’I just don’t know if it is like other cultivators who take the Enchanting Immortal Pill say, that if you stop this elixir during cultivation, you will have a Qigong Deviation.’
After taking the Enchanting Immortal Pill, Su Que didn’t feel anything after a while.
’I guess my physique is too strong; for other cultivators, the effect of this elixir would have already made them addicted, causing harm to their body and spirit.’
After about an hour, feeling nothing, Su Que decided to increase the dosage of the Enchanting Immortal Pill.
He left the mansion again, used the Celestial Gate Gold from the storage bag, and went to an inn said to be controlled by Xiahou Lu, asking the waiter if there were any Enchanting Immortal Pills for sale.
After asking, the waiter indeed said there were, and asked how many Su Que wanted to buy.
Su Que directly said, "However many you have here, I’ll buy them all."
Currently, his storage bag contained quite a bit of Celestial Gate Gold, so he was rather affluent.
Hearing this, the waiter immediately went to find the shopkeeper.
After the shopkeeper nodded to the waiter, the waiter approached Su Que and reported a number in Celestial Gate Gold.
He was afraid that Su Que had taken too many Enchanting Immortal Pills, which made him speak so rashly.
The number reported by the waiter was completely acceptable to Su Que.
Thus, Su Que bought all fifty Enchanting Immortal Pills stored in this inn.
In fact, most cultivators in Xianming City would crush the Enchanting Immortal Pill and consume it bit by bit.
But no one, like Su Que, would swallow a whole pill at once.
Swallowing a whole pill undoubtedly would harm both the body and spirit.
But Su Que was different; his body and spirit were so formidable that such damage had no effect on him.
After buying the Enchanting Immortal Pills, Su Que returned once again.
This time, he took ten Enchanting Immortal Pills at once.
Soon, that peculiar feeling rose within his body once more.
Su Que sensed it for a while, and soon, the feeling gradually faded away.
Su Que introspected his own body and could see some residual medicinal power of the Enchanting Immortal Pill in his meridians.
This medicinal power was akin to poison.
Su Que could completely invoke the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons to transform it into Myriad Poison True Qi.
However, this toxicity was slow, not intense.
Although it could transform into Myriad Poison True Qi, not much could be converted.
’Let’s leave this medicinal power in the meridians and see if it can cause me any harm.’
Su Que thought, and began to operate the Demon Blade Heart Method.
The Demon Blade Heart Method was one of the cultivation techniques prone to Qigong Deviation that he had studied.
So, he started to operate it at this time.
As the Demon Blade Heart Method operated, the demon nature in his body spread slowly, like ink in clear water.
Soon, this inky demonic qi rose around him.
While the Demon Blade Heart Method was in operation, as Su Que introspected his body, he saw the medicinal power residual from taking the Enchanting Immortal Pill became lively under the influence of the demon nature, heading towards his heart meridian.
With the aid of the Enchanting Immortal Pill’s medicinal power, it was easier to undergo Qigong Deviation while practicing the Demon Blade Heart Method.
That is to say, the side effects Su Que had to endure while cultivating now were stronger.
Qigong Deviation damages the mind.
With the reversal of side effects, Su Que’s mind became increasingly clear, and his spirit increasingly powerful.
He felt a cool sensation between his brows, and his spirit grew ever more robust.
’The progress of the Demon Blade’s cultivation is also improving.’
Su Que did not expect that after consuming the Enchanting Immortal Pill, the speed of practicing a method prone to Qigong Deviation would be quicker.
His original goal was merely to use the Enchanting Immortal Pill to induce Qigong Deviation, to enhance his spirit and physique.
He never thought it would also enhance the mastery of the Demon Blade.
Su Que paused slightly, and took out three bottles of elixirs and two celestial medicines from the storage bag and chewed them up.
With the elixir and celestial medicine in his stomach, Su Que felt a warm sensation in his belly.
Soon, a vast medicinal power surged like a tidal wave, spreading to all parts of his body.
Instantly, the Qi blood within Su Que’s body flowed even faster.
The speed of cultivation accelerated.
’I wonder what the limit is for taking the Enchanting Immortal Pill?’
After all, the Enchanting Immortal Pill is not some elixir; it’s merely an elixir used to stimulate a certain feeling.
Its preciousness actually does not surpass some items in Su Que’s storage bag used for enhancing cultivation speed or healing.
The celestial medicine and elixirs Su Que consumed were exactly the medicinal power he could absorb in a short time.
However, after taking ten Enchanting Immortal Pills, he felt he hadn’t reached his limit.
Thus, Su Que consumed ten more Enchanting Immortal Pills.
However, compared to taking the Enchanting Immortal Pill for speeding up cultivation, Su Que still wished the Enchanting Immortal Pill could make the state of Qigong Deviation stronger.
In this way, the side effects of cultivating cultivation techniques like the Demon Blade Heart Method, which are prone to Qigong Deviation, would be more considerable.
