1244 The Shock Brought by the Longevity Pills
Everyone was in an uproar. Each of these Longevity Pills could extend one’s life by twenty years.
Every word caused a sensation!
Martial arts lived long lives, but they were not immortal. Even the strongest of the generation could not escape the erosion of time and would turn to dust eventually. There was no exception to this.
Everyone had different levels of power, status, and life span, but death was fair to everyone.
!!
For martial arts experts, time was incomparably precious. The stronger the martial artist, the longer they could survive. And one of these pills could extend one’s lifespan by twenty years.
These twenty years could very likely bring about a huge breakthrough and extend one’s lifespan even more. Even if they didn’t, who would want twenty extra years for nothing?
Any one of these pills was worth far more than the three million low-grade spirit stones that Chang Shenghong had given the matriarch.
Whether it was Situ Ye or Marquis Anguo, no one would be indifferent to an extra twenty years of life. Let alone three million low-grade spirit stones, they were willing to pay even if it was twice as much. Twenty years was enough for them to do too many things.
“Longevity Pills? How could there be such a thing?!” Chang Shenghong roared, “I don’t believe it. Other than some heavenly materials and earthly treasures, how could there exist any medicine that can prolong one’s life? I’ve never heard of such things.”
“You haven’t heard of it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist!” Kong Buyi unexpectedly stood up and said at this moment. “I’ve heard that there was indeed something called Longevity Pills during ancient times. However, the pill recipe was lost to the ages.”
Unlike the others, Kong Buyi was the president of the Alchemist a.s.sociation, so he knew more about these secrets than the others. He knew that Longevity Pills had existed in ancient times, but the pill recipe was lost later on.
Of course, that did not mean there was no Longevity Pill recipe. In fact, the later generations were no fools. As far as he knew, there were several recipes in the Alchemist a.s.sociation. However, without exception, all these recipes required extremely precious herbs.
These precious herbs often had the function of prolonging life. And after being made into pills, the medicinal effect would increase. However, these natural treasure was extremely difficult to find. Its value was simply immeasurable. There was no possibility of it being popularized on a large scale.
In ancient times, there were many Longevity Pills. Although the price was not cheap, it was not unacceptable.
During that era, martial arts flourished and shook the many worlds. One of the most important factors was the birth of the Longevity Pill. The lifespan of various experts continued to extend, and they had enough time to cultivate to the peak.
Kong Buyi’s words were undoubtedly to support Chu Yunfan and confirm the existence of the Longevity Pill.
The people present were all prominent figures of the Great Wei Kingdom and were well-informed. Naturally, they had heard of the existence of Longevity Pills. However, they were made from extremely precious natural treasures and were basically national treasures. Only alchemy experts had the opportunity to make them. And once they were made, they would most likely be purchased by the Great Wei Kingdom’s imperial court.
They had only heard of the pill’s name and had never seen it before.
Moreover, the Great Wei Kingdom attracted many experts to work for them. These Longevity Pills were a huge bargaining chip, especially for those experts who were nearing the end of their lives. They had to rely on the Great Wei Kingdom to obtain Longevity Pills.
The real problem was not in the Longevity Pill itself, but in the ancient pill recipe that could not be popularized. That was the recipe that seized the fortune of heaven and earth. The Longevity Pill now was just a slight use of the natural treasures that had the function of prolonging life.
“I thought it was just a legend. I didn’t expect to actually see it in my life” Kong Buyi looked at Chu Yunfan in shock as he muttered to himself.
No matter what it was, the value of the Longevity Pill was immeasurable. It could even be pa.s.sed down as a family heirloom.
Even Marquis Anguo and Situ Ye, who knew Chu Yunfan’s ident.i.ty, looked at the scene in front of them with envy. Five Longevity Pills meant a hundred years, which was equivalent to nearly half of their lives.
“Yunfan, this is too expensive!” the matriarch hesitated for a moment before saying.
Although she was old, she was not senile. Of course, she understood how shocking this was.
“It’s nothing. I accidentally discovered these pills. They’re of no use to me. Giving them to you would be the best choice, Martriach,” Chu Yunfan said.
He didn’t say that he was the one who made them because if he did, he would become the target of public criticism. No one could resist the temptation of prolonging life. At that time, all the experts in the Great Wei Kingdom would come to seek him out.
That would be the beginning of countless troubles. However, he knew that there were still some people who wanted to know if he had the recipe or if he had other Longevity Pills. However, as long as he did not make an enemy of the world, Chu Yunfan was not afraid.
Whoever dared to show themselves would be crushed to death.
Seeing Chu Yunfan’s firm att.i.tude, the old madam could only say, “In that case, I’ll accept them.”
Today, the surprises were getting bigger and bigger.
“I don’t believe it. I don’t know where he found these pills to fake all this!”
Chang Shenghong saw that everyone was shocked by the Longevity Pill that Chu Yunfan had brought, so he immediately shouted in contempt.
“Chang Shenghong, haven’t you had enough?” Chu Yaowei said angrily.
Did Chang Shenghong really want his mother’s birthday banquet to become a joke in everyone’s eyes?
“Get out!”
Chu Yaowei was completely enraged by Chang Shenghong. However, Chang Shenghong was still unwilling to give up. There was a crazed look on his face.
“Chu Yunfan, do you dare put these pills to the test right here and right now?!”
Everyone shook their heads. Chang Shenghong had lost his mind. He was like a drowning man clutching at straws.
Chang Shenghong firmly believed that this poor Chu Yunfan would not be able to get his hands on Longevity Pill. That was why he wanted to test them even if he had to die. He was not afraid even if he had offended everyone in Marquis Zhongxin’s household.
In other words, he had already offended everyone in the household. If he could not expose Chu Yunfan’s scam, he would not be willing to drop the matter.
His eyes were bloodshot like a gambler’s eyes. He stared at Chu Yunfan, wishing he could tear him into pieces.
“Since you’re still unwilling, I’ll make you give up.” Chu Yunfan sneered.
