Chapter 2559 Erysipelas
Zhang Xuezhou is not a stingy person. He is never stingy with others unless they need it urgently.

But he was really afraid that something might happen to Dong Zhongshu.

"This medicine has problems. Most people will get sick if they take it," Zhang Xuezhou said cautiously, "Don't think I'm being stingy and won't give it to you!"

"This medicine is a problem for you, but it's fine for me!"

Dong Zhongshu pointed at Zhang Xuezhou, whose face was ruddy as if he had swallowed a tonic, and looked carefully at the irrepressible magical aura on Zhang Xuezhou's body. He felt that Zhang Xuezhou's state was what he had always dreamed of.

For Dong Zhongshu, who practiced both civil and military arts, it was difficult to balance the situation in the body and guide it upward at the same time.

There are no two identical pills in the world, let alone blood and qi pills and mana pills of the same quality and quantity. It is also a hassle to adapt them to his physical condition.

Dong Zhongshu struggled for a long time on how to simultaneously promote his cultivation, not to mention entering the realm of seeking his true self.

"Don't worry, try it first!"

Before storing the Eight-Step Immortality Pill, Zhang Xuezhou tested the efficacy of the medicine. He was quite satisfied with its toxicity and thought that he could practice the poison avoidance technique when he had free time, striving to keep pace with his real self and even achieve reverse feedback.

As for the Eight-Step Immortality Pill to assist in cultivation, that was another matter. After all, Zhang Xuezhou's cultivation had fallen into an awkward situation.

If he cannot change the way of cultivation, he will either rely on swallowing human pills to cultivate, or use the method of imitating human pills to promote it, so as to guide the realm technique upward.

Excluding the benefits of practicing, only the poisonous effect allowed Zhang Xuezhou to gain some benefits.

But Zhang Xuezhou did not expect that Dong Zhongshu had a strong desire for the Eight-Step Immortality Pill.

"Try a little bit first," Zhang Xuezhou advised, "as long as you still feel good after trying it, you can take it in any amount you want!"

Zhang Xuezhou did not underestimate Dong Zhongshu. He had made some progress in physical skills and poison avoidance techniques, and in terms of his risk-taking, he was second only to the fearless Li Shaojun.

He and Li Shaojun can try taking it at appropriate times, but others may not be able to do so.

While there might be a chance to make Eight-Step Immortality Pills in the future, Li Shaojun had no interest in these smelly Eight-Step Immortality Pills, and Zhang Xuezhou only used them to practice the Poison Avoidance Technique.

He looked at Dong Zhongshu who was eager to try, and suggested that Dong Zhongshu try the powder of these external elixirs first.

“I’m sure I’ll feel good!”

Dong Zhongshu felt that he was very steady. He came to this conclusion after seeing Zhang Xuezhou taking the elixir with his own eyes.

It is impossible that Zhang Xuezhou would have one effect when taking it, and another effect when taking it myself.

He picked up some powder with his fingernails and swallowed it like Zhang Xuezhou.

The body's qi, blood and magic power were all activated as expected. Dong Zhongshu's face just showed a slight joy, but he suddenly felt his vision go dark, and two drops of nosebleed fell on the table in the study.

"What a strong corrosive force!"

Dong Zhongshu touched his nose and shook his head vigorously.

The energy and blood in his body were flowing throughout his body, and his magic power was constantly washing over his body. The stimulating effect brought by the medicine had greatly subsided, but the erosion he suffered was real.

A small amount of powder can cause his nose to bleed, and swallowing a large dose may cause bleeding from all five or even seven orifices and lead to death.

Li Shaojun's disdain is not unreasonable, and Zhang Xuezhou's caution is also normal.

"This medicine is very potent," Dong Zhongshu said in a deep voice, "If you don't have a large dose of elixir to offset it, taking this medicine rashly could very well kill you!"

"This medicine was originally a primer," Zhang Xuezhou nodded and said, "Under normal circumstances, it should be taken with the Good Fortune Pill. This can guide the Good Fortune Pill to achieve a stronger effect, whether it is to improve cultivation or to impact realms, it has a certain effect!"

"I'll try the combination of medicines again!" The Good Fortune Pill is not an easily available pill. Even when Tian Fen wanted to restore his own magic power, he chose to swallow three Soul Forging Pills instead of the Good Fortune Pill.

This kind of elixir can be used in life-and-death battles, or to reach the threshold of spiritual practice.

Zhang Xuezhou has only sent three to Hong Ku over the years.

Seeing Dong Zhongshu take out two Creation Pills of different colors and swallow them in one gulp in order to test the Eight-Step Immortality Pill, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but marvel at it, thinking that Dong Zhongshu was really testing his belongings.

But that was Dong Zhongshu's personality. He would not be stingy with anything he needed, even if it meant spending all of it.

After swallowing two fortune pills, Dong Zhongshu's face turned slightly red, and the magic power that had accumulated too much in his body began to dissipate.

He glanced at the two drops of blood on the table, then took a small piece of the Eight-Step Immortality Pill and swallowed it.

The blood and magic power surged throughout his body in a short moment. Dong Zhongshu's eyes widened. He tried to suppress the urge in his body, so as to check the side effects of the elixir. He suddenly felt a black screen in front of his eyes, as if he had been hit by a club.

When Dong Zhongshu came to his senses, he saw a pool of blood on the table and his vision became blurred.

"If you need this kind of medicine, please wait a little longer. We are refining the second batch. This medicine has been stained with the blood of the Nine Spirits Saint. It should have produced poison. The properties of the medicine may also have changed!"

When Zhang Xuezhou's voice came, Dong Zhongshu shook his head vigorously to make himself a little more sober.

Crackling sounds continued to explode in the acupoints throughout his body, and Dong Zhongshu felt that the sky bridge above his head seemed to have become more solid.

The state of true self will guide the two bridges of heaven and earth to solidify, thereby guiding the internal circulation of the body.

Just as the moon revolves around the world, this circulation also means that the monk becomes a truly independent individual.

When in this state, the cultivator will be in a sealed state, the body's strength will circulate continuously and no longer dissipate and consume, and the constantly derived power in the body will accumulate the cultivation to a true self limit, thus possessing extraordinary top-level power.

Any absorption and consumption of elixirs will bring endless power, making the cultivators at this level extremely difficult to deal with.

If they didn't have top-level killing skills, the fight between the True Self Realm monks would take a long time.

This sealed and closed state of circulation also has many functions such as avoiding the erosion of magic, cutting off evil curses, and reducing the attacks of ordinary magic.

The distance between the state of ego and the state of true self is just one step away, which is also the distance between a master and a super master.

This is the state of mind that Dong Zhongshu was thinking about.

At this time, the elixir had taken effect on him, and he felt a feeling he had never experienced before. Dong Zhongshu no longer cared about the poison from the elixir.

If this medicine has erysipelas, Dong Zhongshu also believes that it is a kind of erysipelas that has a good effect.

As he listened to Zhang Xuezhou's explanation of the Eight-Step Immortality Pill, Dong Zhongshu felt that the normal Eight-Step Immortality Pill might not have such an effect.

"Perhaps the real use is erysipelas!"

Dong Zhongshu carefully wiped the blood that was oozing from all over his head with his sleeves.

The Good Fortune Pill he had swallowed was still emitting medicinal properties, and was even slightly stronger than when taken normally, causing his body to continuously overflow with magical energy, and also causing his blood and qi to surge violently.

But perhaps what really benefited Dong Zhongshu was the moment when his eyes went dark and he almost lost control of his body.

Perhaps it was the effect of the Nine-Spirited Sage's blood essence, or perhaps it was the Nine-Spirited Sage's blood essence combined with the Eight-Step Immortality Pill that produced a subtle effect.

Dong Zhongshu felt that the two bridges between heaven and earth had become hardened without his knowledge, and he had come one step closer to the hard conditions of the true self realm in a short period of time.
