Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 1339: Chapter 1339: Mu Hanyan’s Grand Gesture

Although they knew Han Yan was the princess, they also understood she was merely a Changsun from one of the Eight Great Families in Anyun. In terms of family wealth, how could the Mu Family compare with the majesty of a royal family? Her elixirs certainly couldn’t surpass the Imperial Elixirs from the palace, could they? As for Mu Hanyan studying alchemy for a few days at Long Yan Academy, they directly overlooked that.

Never mind that she only studied alchemy for a few days at Long Yan Academy; even if she had studied medicine and alchemy since childhood, it would still be no more than a decade or so. How could she compare with these Dan Dao Saints who dedicated their lives to medicine and elixir arts? Moreover, judging from Han Yan’s cultivation, she couldn’t possibly have spent all her time on such strange and mysterious arts.

Upon hearing their words, Han Yan’s hands paused involuntarily, but after a moment’s thought, she still unscrewed the cap.

Soon, a refreshing elixir fragrance wafted into the air, causing every pore in her body to relax, and she felt as light as if she were floating amongst the clouds, indescribably at ease.

The few Imperial Physicians were simultaneously taken aback. When they saw the elixir Han Yan took out, their hands, which were initially scrambling to retrieve their elixirs, stopped simultaneously.

”This... this is the Dragon Blood Revival Pill!” An Imperial Physician pointed at the elixir in Han Yan’s hand with a trembling finger, his voice trembling as well.

The elixir before them appeared blood-red throughout, yet gleamed like jade. Ripples flowed over it, full of vitality, looking exactly like the legendary Dragon Blood Revival Pill.

The Dragon Blood Revival Pill isn’t actually refined from dragon blood; in reality, the Holy Court Continent doesn’t even have dragons, those mythical Divine Beasts. This elixir is crafted from hundreds of rare medicinal herbs and refined with the Beast Bone Relics of powerful exotic beasts, known for its ability to restore flesh and revitalize the dead. This might be a bit of an exaggeration, but it undeniably can heal any injury as long as there is a breath remaining.

The few Imperial Physicians chosen by the palace naturally came from generations of medical practice; each is a renowned physician and Dan Dao Saint of their time. Yet today marked the first time they had seen the Dragon Blood Revival Pill.

The medicinal ingredients required for the Dragon Blood Revival Pill are extraordinarily rare, with strict age requirements for each herb. The refining technique demands utmost precision, allowing no room for error, making the success rate less than one percent.

By calculation, merely the materials to refine one Dragon Blood Revival Pill would cost millions of silver taels, and given its dauntingly low success rate, even with some luck, refining a single pill could cost tens of millions of silver taels.

Based on their respective family wealth, they could never afford such expenses. Even the Shangyue Royal Family couldn’t spare so much silver to allow such extravagance.

”Indeed.” Han Yan replied calmly, as she gently placed the Dragon Blood Revival Pill into Tang Bufan’s mouth.

The few Imperial Physicians exchanged glances, nearly exclaiming a word of pity. The entire Holy Court Continent is vastly hierarchical, even more so within the royal court. Seeing Han Yan calmly and serenely feed such a precious elixir to a follower, as if it were merely a low-level elixir bought from a market stall, they simply couldn’t comprehend.

How would they understand the enduring bond across two lives between Han Yan and Tang Bufan? Or know that in Han Yan’s heart, Tang Bufan was far more than just a follower, but a friend to entrust one’s life to, even akin to family.

The elixir dissolved instantaneously upon entry, with Tang Bufan’s deep and bloody injuries visibly healing at an impressive speed, and his pallid face began regaining color. If one were to probe his body with Divine Sense at this moment, they would find his damaged meridians also healing swiftly.

Witnessing the miraculous effects of the Dragon Blood Revival Pill firsthand, the Imperial Physicians were both astonished and ecstatic, while simultaneously reaching into their bosoms.

Being both doctors and Sword Cultivators, they naturally knew that Tang Bufan had exhausted his last bit of Qi earlier. If it wasn’t replenished timely, his meridians might shrink, adversely affecting future cultivation. Taking the opportunity while the injuries healed swiftly, consuming the Dragon Blood Revival Pill was indeed the optimal moment to restore Qi.

With luck, it might not only avoid hindering future cultivation but also harness the medicine’s potency for a breakthrough in cultivation.

The few were hurriedly grabbing their Qi Replenishing and Essence Nourishing Pills, only to see Han Yan open another bottle of elixir.

Unlike the previously blood-red Dragon Blood Revival Pill, this elixir was entirely white, shimmering with a crystalline luster, and several bursts of strange light alternately flashing like rainbows after rain. However, instead of the usual seven colors of a rainbow, this elixir displayed nine.

”Nine-Turned Saint Qi Pill!” The Imperial Physicians exclaimed simultaneously, yet couldn’t bring themselves to take their elixir bottles out. It wasn’t reluctance but unwillingness to embarrass themselves.

If the Dragon Blood Revival Pill is the sacred treasure among healing elixirs, then the Nine-Turned Saint Qi is the crowning jewel among Qi Replenishing Pills. It not only aids Great Sword Masters in breaking through to Sword Saints but even enhances a Sword Saint’s strength significantly. More importantly, its Dan Power is exceptionally gentle, allowing consumption by anyone at the Sword Master Realm, where, if timed correctly, it could directly elevate one rank, possibly even two.

Do not underestimate the advancement by one or two ranks; the cultivation of Sword Masters is far more arduous than that of Swordsmen. If not for Tang Bufan following Han Yan and having the strong financial backing of Nanyan Commerce to chew the best elixirs like snacks, with his talent, diligent practice for three to five years might not guarantee a single rank advancement. This assumes his current Second-level Sword Master cultivation; advancement to Fifth or Sixth Rank would be even slower.

Considering the difficulty of obtaining this elixir, the Nine-Turned Saint Qi Pill is in no way inferior to the Dragon Blood Revival Pill in terms of ingredients, refining difficulty, and cost. Its immense assistance in cultivation makes countless cultivators covet it, rendering it incredibly rare.

In the face of such a Holy Pill, the Imperial Physicians finally withdrew their hands; they could no longer bring themselves to embarrass themselves.

Seeing the Imperial Physicians’ slightly embarrassed expressions due to their astonishment, Lu Nianxin’s face showed some pride as she felt deeply proud of her precious granddaughter’s grand gesture.

Han Yan was about to feed Tang Bufan the Nine-Turned Saint Qi Pill when he opened his eyes and raised his hand to stop her.

”Han Yan, refining these two elixirs wasn’t easy; don’t waste them thoughtlessly—save them for when you break through to Sword Saint.” Tang Bufan advised.

Upon hearing this, the Imperial Physicians were even more astounded; at first, they thought the elixir was bought with Han Yan’s wealth or gifted by her elders. But never in their wildest dreams did they imagine it was refined by Han Yan herself.
