I've already ascended to immortality, and only now is spiritual energy reviving?

After bringing the water to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer.

Bai Sheng tilted the pot lid up to the side, leaving a small gap.

Let the steam slowly escape.

The medicinal soup gradually changed from clear to dark brown.

The smell in the kitchen

From the initial sweet aroma of licorice,

It turned into a richer, more complex bitterness...

"Yes, good medicine tastes bitter, bitter medicine is good..."

Bai Sheng would occasionally lift the pot lid.

Stir it with a spoon to prevent the herbs from sticking to the pot.

……

The medicinal soup was simmering over a low flame.

It rolled around for almost an hour and a half.

Finally, it was collected into a small bowl of thick, dark brown liquid.

Bai Sheng picked it up and blew on it.

It swayed slightly, emitting a very strong medicinal smell.

"Good medicine tastes bitter!"

"I'm never afraid of drinking bitter medicine!"

"Another bowl, please!"

Bai Sheng mentally prepared himself and took the first sip.

moment,

He was so distressed that his whole face scrunched up in pain.

Revealing a mask of pain.

But after the bitterness...

A lingering sweetness of licorice remains on the tip of the tongue.

"It doesn't taste that bad... Hmm, maybe I'm just used to it."

He gulped down the entire bowl of medicinal soup in one go.

A warm sensation slowly spread from my stomach.

It seeps along the Ren meridian towards the Dantian.

Enveloped in this layer of warmth, my icy hands and feet felt a little better.

"Alas, to master unparalleled martial arts, one must endure pain that ordinary people cannot bear..."

Bai Sheng clenched his fists.

With gritted teeth,

He drank the entire pot of medicinal soup.

……

"Kouqu!"

Bai Sheng leaned over the sink, covering his mouth.

It turned out to be a dry heave.

It tastes awful.

It tastes absolutely awful!

Bai Sheng inwardly groaned.

I originally thought that Huoxiang Zhengqi Water was already unpleasant to drink,

But did not expect,

There are actually drugs that are even more potent than this!

"If I want to control my internal energy freely and solidify my dantian foundation in the future, I wonder how much more of this stuff I'll have to drink..."

As Bai Sheng was thinking this, he suddenly slapped his forehead.

"How could I have forgotten about that!"

Chapter 28 Anomaly

Bai Sheng stared longingly.

The second bowl of dark brown medicinal soup in the casserole dish...

The bitterness can be smelled from a great distance.

but,

He now possesses second-order perception.

We're not just passively enduring the fumes anymore!

It can completely suppress olfactory and gustatory signals.

Bai Sheng picked up the bowl and tried it.

Focus your attention on the sensory nerves in the nasal cavity and on the surface of the tongue.

Forcibly suppressing the sensitivity of perception downwards.

It's probably impossible to achieve that 100%.

But there's still a 70-80% chance.

The medicine was brought to his lips.

That pungent bitterness was compressed to a mere trace.

He gulped it down, and the warm medicine flowed down his throat into his stomach.

There was no bitterness, only a warm feeling spreading from my stomach throughout my body.

Like soaking in a constant-temperature hot water,

From the stomach to three inches below the navel, and then slowly spreading from the lower abdomen to the extremities.

The coldness in my hands and feet was gradually dispelled by this warmth.

Comfortable……

Bai Sheng leaned back in his chair, closing his eyes to feel the spread of the medicine throughout his body.

Before bed,

He took out the small wooden figure made of locust wood.

The little man has been secretly nurturing himself for a day.

The blood-red color on the surface of the locust wood has faded somewhat.

It changed from dark red to light brown.

He pricked his finger again with a sewing needle.

A poke, and a drop of blood seeped out and dripped onto it.

Then put the little figure back into the cardboard box and cover it up.

Lie back in bed,

The calico cat was crumpled up in a cardboard box in his bedroom.

As usual, Fat Orange was lying behind the door.

Bai Sheng closed his eyes.

He almost hit the pillow with the back of his head.

Then I entered the deep sleep.

……

When I woke up again,

Bai Sheng took out his phone and glanced at it.

12:43 PM!

He stared at the numbers on the screen for a full three seconds.

I slept from the night before until noon the next day.
