Volume 1 The Curtain of the Night Chapter 29 Taking the Elixir
Xia Zuo didn't expect that he would sleep for so long, maybe because his body was really too tired.
By the time Xia Zuo woke up, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
Moonlight poured in through the window, seemingly coating the room with a film of light.
"Hey, I slept so late. Xia Zuo opened his eyelids, which felt slightly heavy, saw the elegant clock hanging on the wall, and saw the starlight of the night outside the window, and was stunned.
"I don't know how Jasmine is doing now, she said she was going to mix an elixir for me, but I fell asleep completely. Natsuzo scratched his head and prepared to get up from the bed.
"Don't move. A voice came.
When Xia Zuo was about to get up, the door suddenly opened, and I saw Jasmine standing quietly at the open door, saying to Xia Zuo, and there seemed to be a little command in her words.
"Ah, okay, Miss Jasmine, whatever you say, it's what you say. Xia Zuo could only hang his hand helplessly, looking like I was an obedient and good child.
"Poof. Jasmine suddenly burst out laughing.
Although Xia Zuo couldn't see Jasmine's face, Xia Zuo could tell that Jasmine should be smiling.
Maybe it was because of the agreement she made with Xia Zuo that Xia Zuo was a wild soul descendant, and Jasmine finally didn't seem so cold in front of Xia Zuo.
"I've already mixed your elixir, but I didn't call you because you were asleep. Jasmine retracted her smile, returned to her previous appearance, and said lightly.
"Now you can take the elixir, right?" Jasmine asked.
"Ah, okay, thank you. Xia Zuo hurriedly replied, as if he wanted to get up from the bed.
Xia Zuo felt that his body seemed to have improved by half at this time, and it was not as heavy as before, and even gave Xia Zuo a feeling that he no longer needed treatment.
Xia Zuo suddenly felt that his left shoulder was pressed by Jasmine, and then fixed Xia Zuo on the bed, Jasmine's strength was unexpectedly great, in fact, the strength of the soul descendant was far superior to ordinary people, Xia Zuo's strength had not fully recovered, and he couldn't break free for a while, and he couldn't get up from the bed.
Is it so hard for me to get out of bed?
Xia Zuo couldn't help but smile bitterly and complained in his heart.
Obviously, I do feel like I've recovered a lot...... Although everyone still doesn't seem to be at ease.
Maybe in their eyes, overdrawing physical strength and overexploiting soul essence often causes serious consequences, so they think I should have a good rest.
But maybe I'm an anomaly, maybe I'll recover faster than the average soul descendant, otherwise my uncle won't think I'm special and won't let me go easily, right?
Xia Zuo suddenly remembered the uncle who claimed to be an old hunter at the time, according to Fred, the uncle should also be a soul descendant, and a powerful soul descendant with an extraordinary status, there should be no need for a soul descendant like him to treat me like this.
Unless there's something in my body that deserves the attention of a soul descendant like Uncle...... But I'm just a soul descendant of colorless blood, so what is there to value my uncle?
If you really want to say it, except for the fact that Xia Zuo feels that his physical recovery ability is relatively strong, and he seems to be quite talented in using soul quality, Xia Zuo doesn't feel that there is anything special about him.
It's weird, why is that?
"Drink it. ”
Just as Xia Zuo was thinking, Jasmine's voice interrupted Xia Zuo's thoughts.
Xia Zuo came back to his senses and saw that Jasmine had an extra potion in his hand at this time, and the potion was stored in a small transparent test tube with a sealed lid, the color of the potion was pale black, and there seemed to be a little bubble beating in the middle.
This is the elixir that Jasmine has concocted.
Elixir, this is a strange potion or medicine that can usually only be made by a soul-descended elixir master.
Sometimes some non-professional soul descendants can also make some simple elixirs on their own, but the effect of the elixir produced is often much worse than that made by a real elixir master.
The ingredients of different elixirs are often varied, and there are various preparation methods and precautions, so there are many formulas that record the production methods of elixirs.
However, this recipe is generally only understood by an elixir master or a soul descendant with a certain talent.
The effects of different elixirs are not exactly the same, but they usually have a common effect, that is, to help the soul descendant stop the erosion of the soul essence in the body, stabilize the soul quality in the soul descendant's body, and temporarily strengthen the immunity of the soul descendant, but the effectiveness is different.
The Elixir is a very flexible Soulborn profession that often tests the minds of the Soulborn.
As an elixir master, the Soul Descendant often needs to choose what kind of elixir to make according to the actual situation.
The Elixir Master also needs to pay attention to how to use the elixir in order to restore the state of the Soul Descendant who took the elixir.
After all, there is a folk saying that medicine is poisonous.
Elixir is no exception.
The Soul Descendant must not overtake the elixir, otherwise it will cause the Soul Descendant's physical state to further decline.
Therefore, it is not that as long as the soul descendant has the elixir with him, there is no need for an elixir master.
Ordinary soul descendants can't accurately judge what kind of elixir they need and how much of it will take.
Taking less elixir can't be cured, and taking too much elixir can't be cured.
As for if you make a mistake in judgment and take the wrong elixir, the consequences will be even more serious.
After all, the ingredients of the elixir usually contain soul essence, and if the soul descendant takes the wrong elixir, it is equivalent to accommodating the unsuitable foreign soul substance.
This will cause the soul in the soul descendant's body to enter a more unstable state, and in severe cases, it may even be on the verge of collapse.
Now let's talk about the approximate classification of elixirs.
The elixirs made by the elixir master can be broadly divided into two types.
The first is the conventional elixir, which is an elixir that all elixir masters can make or learn to make, the ingredients of such elixirs are often relatively simple, so the formulas of many conventional elixirs are not a big secret, and there are often some conventional elixir formulas circulating on the soul descendant market.
Conventional elixirs are characterized by good healing results, but lack of specificity to effectively target injuries caused by a particular ghost.
In addition, depending on the type of conventional elixir, the specific efficacy is also different.
For example, the "Sea Blue" elixir, one of the conventional elixirs, the main effect of this elixir is to amplify the soul descendant's ability to purify and accommodate the soul essence, similar to temporarily increasing the immunity of the soul descendant, in order to fight against the alien soul substance and purify the out-of-control own soul essence.
The second is a special elixir, which is an elixir that can only be made by a good elixir master, and cannot be done by a newcomer or a mediocre elixir master.
There is no standard formula for this type of elixir, unlike conventional elixirs that can be made only according to the recipe and technique, but the elixir master himself needs to improvise and make the elixir according to the actual situation for the injuries caused by a specific ghost.
The elixir that Jasmine is now preparing is a special elixir.
Specialty elixirs are not as versatile as regular elixirs, but they can be miraculous when targeted for a specific injury.
Jasmine made this special elixir in response to Xia Zuo's over-exploitation of the soul essence and the influence of the blood demon seed's soul quality.
Although Xia Zuo was not directly attacked by the Blood Demon Seed Soul Demon, it seemed that there was only a problem with his own soul.
But in fact, Xia Zuo was in the lair of the Blood Demon Seed at the time, and there were many souls left over from the Blood Demon Seed in the lair, which could affect Xia Zuo's body, especially when Xia Zuo's body fell into a defenseless state after he fell into a coma.
Normally, whether the soul descendant is directly or indirectly in contact with the soul spirit, they will be affected by the soul spirit to varying degrees, and most of them are negative.
"Okay, okay. Xia Zuo had no choice but to continue to sit on the bed, and then took the special elixir from Jasmine's hand.
Hey, it turns out that this elixir also expires in quality? It actually needs to be sealed to ensure its quality.
Xia Zuo then noticed the sealing lid on the elixir.
Hawkers, after all, the elixir is not a miracle drug, and it is normal that it needs to be sealed to ensure its effectiveness after it is made.
The elixir is easily affected by external factors, and it needs to be sealed and preserved, which is inconvenient to carry, which is probably why everyone did not carry the elixir when they went out on a mission.
After all, when going out on a mission, the soul descendants often come into direct or indirect contact with other soul qualities, and if they accidentally let the elixir contaminate the soul essence of the outside world, I am afraid that the effect will be greatly reduced or even disappear.
Xia Zuo opened the sealed lid of the elixir and drank the elixir in one gulp.
The taste of this elixir was slightly bitter, but for some reason, Xia Zuo actually felt a hint of sweetness.
The answer is that Xia Zuo secretly glanced at Jasmine again before drinking.
Thinking that it was the elixir made by Jasmine, I suddenly felt inexplicably not bitter.
It even feels quite sweet.
"It feels good. Xia Zuo felt a sense of comfort in his body after taking the elixir and sighed.
"Well, that's good. Jasmine smiled faintly.
"Your body heals itself surprisingly quickly, which is beyond our expectations. ”
"This doesn't match your colorless soul bloodline at all. ”
"If it's another Soulborn of Colorless Bloodline......"
"To develop potential soul essence in this way, to say the least, you have to lie down for ten days and half a month, and there is a high probability that it will leave sequelae that are difficult to cure. ”
"Your words are unexpectedly good at self-healing, coupled with timely treatment. ”
"Maybe it will be basically recovered in three days. ”
Hearing this, Xia Zuo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"It's okay, it's okay, if I lose my body like this, I can't accept it. ”
As a soul hunter who specializes in combat, you must have a healthy and strong body.
"Don't worry. Jasmine took the elixir test tube in Xia Zuo's hand and the sealing lid on the side, then stood up, and walked to the door in Xia Zuo's sight.
Jasmine suddenly stopped at the door and looked at Xia Zuo, as if she had something else to say to Xia Zuo.
"After three days, when you're recovering, it's a new beginning. ”
"You will be a full member of the squad. ”
"Although I have been rude before, please advise. Jasmine suddenly smiled softly.
"Welcome to the Night Veil, Natsuzo. ”
