Chapter 2560: Ice Flame Continent 17
Editor: Henyee Translations
Initially, there was no noticeable response to the pills for a day or two. Some even harbored doubts, suspecting that Gao Zhuo had deceived them. However, after using the pills and dedicating three to four days to cultivation, they began to experience the pill’s effects. For many individuals whose progress in cultivation had been painstakingly slow, with months pa.s.sing by without a breakthrough to the first level, the pills catalyzed breakthroughs for almost everyone.
This extraordinary effect drove them to a state of excitement.
Being a race deeply devoted to cultivation, the Anicca Race’s members possessed a fervent desire for progress. The remarkable benefits of the pills fueled their enthusiasm, creating a rush to purchase with Spirit Stones for fear of the pills running out.
Gao Zhuo, occupied with tending to the spirit herbs, addressed the influx of people, stating bluntly, “I’m busy. If you want pills, go find Kang s.h.i.+. The pills are his, and he has various types available. Approach him for anything you need.”
Gao Zhuo conveyed this information during their conversation.
Kang s.h.i.+?
The crowd questioned whether they had misheard.
The pills were Kang s.h.i.+’s?
And there were multiple types?
Kang s.h.i.+ had long been incapacitated; this was common knowledge.
How could he possess such potent pills?
Despite harboring suspicions about Kang s.h.i.+, the effectiveness of the pills prompted them to seek him out.
Their att.i.tude towards Kang s.h.i.+ differed from that towards Gao Zhuo.
“Kang s.h.i.+, come out. Do you have pills? We brought Spirit Stones. Show us what you’ve got,” someone shouted.
Upon hearing the commotion, Gu Chaoyan refrained from emerging and continued her pill refinement.
Despite the continued clamor, when the crowd realized their efforts were in vain, they eventually took the initiative to enter.
Upon entering, one of them accused, “Kang s.h.i.+, what’s the matter? Why didn’t you come out?”
Gu Chaoyan, engrossed in her elixir-making, glanced up from the furnace. “What is it? I’m busy.”
Her demeanor exuded a coolness, indicating she was not particularly welcoming to these visitors. It seemed as though her routine had been disrupted.
This stark contrast surprised those who came to purchase the pills. After all, it was Kang s.h.i.+. Considering his stagnant cultivation, many were reluctant to acknowledge him. Therefore, they had expected him to appear, but he did not.
Gradually, their initially arrogant att.i.tudes wavered.
One of them questioned, “Gao Zhuo claimed those pills are yours, and we still need them. Produce the pills. We’ve already brought the Spirit Stones.”
Despite a slight improvement, their tone towards Kang s.h.i.+ lacked politeness and carried an air of ent.i.tlement.
Gu Chaoyan, still focused on her pill-making, looked up and stated emotionlessly, “Those pills are gone. I’m not making them anymore.”
“What!” The group grew agitated. Many had hoped to swiftly elevate their cultivation levels, but now they faced disappointment.
“When will they be available?”
“When I have the time,” Gu Chaoyan coldly replied.
Displeasure etched their faces.
How could those pills belong to Kang s.h.i.+? It was truly infuriating.
Turning around, they planned to leave.
“But there are a few other types of pills here.”
