Chapter 195: Three New Pills!

Yang Hao sat at the head, with an air of superiority.

In his eyes, these mortals were nothing but ants.

His gaze swept over the faces of the nobles—some tense, some conflicted, some excited—a myriad of expressions, which gave him a feeling of looking down on all living beings.

Finally, his eyes landed on Ye Yuan across from him, and his expression froze.

The good mood he had just had vanished instantly.

This guy was truly detestable! But he probably wouldn't live through today!

Thinking of this, Yang Hao felt a secret thrill.

A core disciple who hadn't even formally entered the sect, killed in a mortal conflict, with his master and Elder Ouyang covering up—it would just be brushed aside.

Just then, Wan Donghai spoke again: "I think everyone has heard about the content of today's Pill Appreciation Gathering before coming. That's right, today our Drunken Star Pavilion will launch three new pills never seen on the market. The release of these three new pills will be a revolution for our Qin Kingdom's pill industry! Now, we will unveil the mystery of these three new pills one by one!"

It had to be said, aside from alchemy, Wan Donghai's ability to stir people's emotions was far beyond Ye Hang's.

Compared to Wan Donghai, Ye Hang lacked worldliness but had more personal charisma.

Yes, the reason the Medicine Fragrance Pavilion had managed to hold on under such heavy pressure from Drunken Star Pavilion was precisely because of Ye Hang's personal charm!

From the day Ye Hang went into seclusion until today, not a single employee had left the Medicine Fragrance Pavilion!

If their positions were swapped, Drunken Star Pavilion would have long since fallen apart.

However, the more cunning the opponent, the more schemes Wan Donghai had, which was why Drunken Star Pavilion could keep the upper hand over Medicine Fragrance Pavilion.

But today, Wan Donghai's inflammatory speech was undoubtedly lethal!

Wan Donghai walked to the table set up in the center of the hall. On the table were three exquisite jade plates, each covered with red cloth, obscuring their contents.

But everyone knew that on these three jade plates lay the three new pills!

These three pills held everyone's attention!

Wan Donghai lifted the jade plate on his left, gently removed the red cloth covering it, revealing three gray pills.

"I believe everyone is familiar with Qi Recovery Pills. For martial artists, Qi Recovery Pills are essential! The pills in my hand are an improved version, called True Qi Recovery Pills! The speed at which True Qi Recovery Pills restore primal energy is fifty percent higher than that of ordinary Qi Recovery Pills!"

As soon as Wan Donghai finished speaking, the venue erupted.

"My god! Fifty percent! If these True Qi Recovery Pills are launched, won't all the Qi Recovery Pills in my shop become unsellable?"

"Alas, after today, we'll all become vassals of Drunken Star Pavilion!"

"If just one type, True Qi Recovery Pills, has such an effect, I can't imagine what the other two pills are."

Undoubtedly, improving pills was extremely difficult. Increasing the efficacy of Qi Recovery Pills by fifty percent—as long as the price wasn't too outrageous—True Qi Recovery Pills would surely monopolize the market once launched!

With the addition of Gathering Yuan Pills, Drunken Star Pavilion could just sit back and count money from then on, leaving little room for other forces.

Thus, for these merchants to survive, they had no choice but to become vassals of Drunken Star Pavilion, acting as their distributors!

In that case, their shops would essentially become branches of Drunken Star Pavilion.

Wan Donghai smiled faintly, set down the True Qi Recovery Pills, and picked up the middle jade plate to introduce again.

"The pills in this jade plate are not an improved version, but a newly developed pill called Yuan Transformation Pills!" Saying this, Wan Donghai deliberately paused.

Sure enough, upon hearing it was a newly developed pill, someone immediately couldn't hold back.

"Pavilion Master Wan, don't keep us in suspense! Tell us the effects of the Yuan Transformation Pills!"

"Yes, Pavilion Master Wan, what exactly are the Yuan Transformation Pills for?"

...

Wan Donghai, seeing the time was right, smiled and said: "The effect of the Yuan Transformation Pills is to unconditionally raise a Qi Yuan Realm martial artist by one realm! However, a martial artist can only use it once in a lifetime; taking it again will have no effect."

"No way? Unconditionally raise a Qi Yuan Realm martial artist by one realm? That's too exaggerated!"

"Pavilion Master Wan, you're not fooling us, are you?"

"Are you kidding? Martial artists have always accumulated primal energy through cultivation. I've never heard of such a pill. It's too ridiculous!"

No one believed what Wan Donghai said.

That's how people are—when something exceeds their understanding, they instinctively choose not to believe it.

Wan Donghai smiled and said: "I know everyone doubts the efficacy of the Yuan Transformation Pills, so now, in front of you all, I will test this pill!"

Just then, a martial artist at the seventh level of Qi Yuan stepped forward, took a Yuan Transformation Pill from Wan Donghai, and swallowed it directly.

At that moment, the entire hall was unusually quiet, with everyone's eyes fixed on that martial artist!

Only Ye Yuan yawned lazily, indifferent to it all.

"Yuan'er, why don't you seem worried at all? If these Yuan Transformation Pills really have this effect, it would be very disadvantageous for us!" Ye Hang transmitted his voice.

Although Ye Hang had great confidence in his son, hearing Wan Donghai's introduction still made his heart pound.

This was only the second pill, and the third hadn't even been revealed yet, but it had already stunned almost all the forces in Qin Kingdom.

This was not a situation he wanted to see.

Although he had Explosive Yuan Pills, Wan Donghai had four types of pills! Even if he could monopolize the Explosive Yuan Pill market in the future, he would be at an absolute disadvantage in terms of True Qi Recovery Pills and Yuan Transformation Pills.

Ye Yuan smiled and said: "Hehe, Father, don't worry. Only these ignorant people would treat such defective products as treasures."

"Defective products?" Ye Hang said in surprise.

"Yes, these Yuan Transformation Pills do have the effect of raising one's realm, but the side effects are not small. Wan Donghai bringing out this stuff is simply harming people!" Ye Yuan said.

"These Yuan Transformation Pills have side effects?" Ye Hang was even more astonished.

"That's right. After taking these Yuan Transformation Pills, a martial artist's meridians will be damaged to a certain extent, affecting their future cultivation speed. However, this damage is not obvious, and ordinary people cannot detect it. But when they try to break through to the Liquid Essence Realm, their success rate will be greatly reduced, making them much slower than those who cultivated normally!" Ye Yuan explained.

Ye Yuan had once spent immense effort studying pills below the third rank, and among pills, first-rank pills were the most numerous and widely used.

These Yuan Transformation Pills were nothing but leftovers from Ye Yuan's past experiments, so he naturally knew their effects very well.
