Battle Through the Heavens: Inward Cultivation, Crying Xiao Yan

But who knows when we might be able to keep it?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang nodded and prepared to leave.

Now that the engagement has been called off, there's nothing for him to do here.

So he planned to buy some herbs for a medicinal bath and then return to his courtyard to continue his practice.

"Go ahead, I'm getting ready to go back too."

Xiao Yan nodded and headed towards the back of the mountain.

Xiao Yang, on the other hand, headed towards the family's pharmacy.

Along the way, many people greeted Xiao Yang when they met him.

Because of his good looks and talent, he is very popular in the family.

He arrived at the pharmacy very soon.

Upon entering the pharmacy, he saw a middle-aged man lying in a rocking chair.

Upon seeing Xiao Yang enter, a hint of surprise flashed in the other person's eyes.

"Xiao Yang, didn't you just come to collect this month's medicinal herbs yesterday?"

"Why are you here again today?"

"Was there something wrong with those medicinal herbs from yesterday?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang quickly shook his head.

"No, Uncle Hai, I'm here today to buy some more medicinal herbs."

"Let me see if I can improve further in this year."

This middle-aged man is named Xiao Hai, and he is also a member of the Xiao family.

He possesses the strength of a Fighter and is specifically in charge of the pharmacy.

"Okay, what kind of medicinal herbs do you want to buy today?"

Xiao Yang was already prepared and spoke directly.

"Give me one hundred doses of herbs for a complex medicinal bath first."

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Hai's eyes.

"This will cost five hundred gold coins!"

Are you sure you want this much?

The purpose of the pharmacy is not to make a profit, but mainly to provide convenience for family members.

Therefore, the medicinal materials purchased by the pharmacy are all at cost price.

However, even so, one hundred servings of medicinal bath ingredients would cost five hundred gold coins.

This is not a small amount for Xiao Yang, who only has thirty gold coins for pocket money each month.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang nodded firmly.

"I'm sure."

As he spoke, he took out the small money pouch that Xiao Zhan had given him yesterday and took out the five hundred gold coins that he had prepared beforehand.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hai gave Xiao Yang a deep look but said nothing.

After counting the gold coins and confirming that there were no errors, he put the five hundred gold coins away.

Next, he went into the back of the pharmacy to retrieve the medicinal herbs that Xiao Yang needed.

The medicinal herbs for the bath had already been packaged into individual bags.

Although each portion is not very large.

However, a hundred portions added together are not a small amount.

Seeing Xiao Hai walk out carrying a large cloth bag, Xiao Yang suddenly had a flash of inspiration and began to try to create a mission.

[Task: Obtain 100 portions of Rejuvenating Bath Ingredients; Reward: One Portion of Rejuvenating Elixir]

Seeing the mission successfully completed, Xiao Yang was overjoyed.

However, he did not show it directly, but calmly accepted the medicinal herbs from Xiao Hai's hand.

The moment he received the medicinal herbs, a voice from the system echoed in his mind.

[Quest: Obtain 100 portions of Rejuvenating Bath Ingredients; Reward: One Portion of Rejuvenating Elixir. Completed. Claim now?]

Xiao Yang did not receive it immediately. Instead, after saying goodbye to Xiao Hai, he headed towards his own courtyard.

Along the way, he quickened his pace considerably.

He was eager to go back to the courtyard and see what the Rejuvenating Elixir was.

Soon, Xiao Yang, carrying the medicinal herbs, jogged all the way back to his small courtyard.

After closing the door, he tossed the precious medicinal herbs he was holding aside.

"System, claim your reward!"

The next moment, two pieces of information appeared in Xiao Yang's mind.

The first step is to open the system space, and the Rejuvenating Elixir has already been placed inside.

The second message concerned the Rejuvenating Elixir.

Upon seeing the information about the Rejuvenating Elixir, Xiao Yang was overjoyed.

This Rejuvenating Elixir is actually a Grade One pill!

The function is very simple: add a drop of the Rejuvenating Elixir to water and soak for five minutes to restore a fighter's stamina. It can also be used during the Battle Aura stage!

Not only that, it can also slightly enhance one's physical condition.

Of course, if you have a strong constitution, one drop won't be enough.

Moreover, it cannot improve physical fitness.

However, for Xiao Yang, it was not a problem at all.

In fact, his current physical condition is not as good as those fighters.

One drop could restore his stamina twice!

As for the system space, it can be used to store items that are rewards from the system.

Xiao Yang can access the database at any time.

He eagerly retrieved the Rejuvenating Elixir from the system space.

With a thought, Xiao Yang produced a small glass bottle in his hand.

The glass bottle is small, only about the size of an adult man's thumb.

There was some pale blue liquid inside.

There wasn't much liquid; it didn't even fill the small glass bottle.

There are only about ten to fifteen drops of spiritual liquid inside.

Xiao Yang carefully opened the glass cover.

The moment he opened it, he immediately smelled a pleasant fragrance.

After glancing at it, he quickly put the lid back on.

I've heard that the efficacy of some pills may gradually diminish once the lid is opened.

Xiao Yang was also unaware of these things.

However, it's still better to turn it off.

He directly stored the Rejuvenating Elixir in the system space.

It's safer to keep such treasures in the system space.

A first-grade elixir, although it can only restore physical strength.

It is already very precious that it can only be used by people at the Dou Qi stage.

After casually placing the medicinal herbs he had brought earlier, Xiao Yang instructed his servants to fill the bathtub with water.

Then, he began to practice the Mountain-Opening Fist.

He had already set up the task yesterday.

Practicing the Mountain-Opening Fist until you've exhausted all your physical strength and fighting spirit before starting again is also beneficial for cultivating your fighting spirit.

This way, you can cultivate both fighting spirit and fighting skills, achieving two goals at once.

Soon, Xiao Yang practiced the Mountain-Opening Fist a hundred times again, and this time it only took him less than five hours.

It's about ten minutes faster than yesterday.

This is because Xiao Yang's proficiency in the Mountain-Opening Fist has increased, so his training speed has increased considerably.

When he finished practicing for the hundredth time, a familiar voice echoed in his mind.

[Task: Practice the Mountain-Opening Fist 100 times. Reward: Mountain-Opening Fist Proficiency +1. Completed. Claim reward?]

Xiao Yang did not hesitate and immediately accepted the reward.

The next moment, his insights into the Mountain-Opening Fist flowed into his mind once again.

He could clearly feel that his mastery of the Mountain-Opening Fist had become much deeper.

After receiving the system's insights, Xiao Yang did not rush to create more tasks.

He went to the bathtub that had been prepared beforehand, took out the Rejuvenation Elixir from the system space, and carefully dripped a drop of the elixir.

The moment the elixir entered the water, the water in the entire bathtub instantly turned pale blue.

Chapter 5 Beast Essence Blood

Xiao Yang, disregarding the sweat on his body, quickly took off his soaked clothes and eagerly entered the bathtub.

The water, which was originally warm, had cooled down completely after being left for several hours.

However, the weather has been quite hot lately, but Xiao Yang doesn't care.

As soon as he entered the bathtub, he felt a cool sensation.

When his whole body was submerged in the water, he immediately felt a stinging sensation.

This feeling is not uncomfortable.

On the contrary, this feeling made Xiao Yang feel a tingling sensation.

Add cool water.

Xiao Yang actually felt somewhat comfortable.

"Ah~"

He could clearly feel an energy flowing into his body from all directions.

My muscles, which were initially tired and sore, felt a wave of relaxation.

Xiao Yang subconsciously began to absorb the energy in the air and transform it into his own fighting spirit.

Soon, he made a somewhat surprising discovery.

I don't know if it's because the Rejuvenating Elixir spreads energy throughout the water.

He soaked in the bathtub, absorbing the fighting spirit, and recovered a little faster than before.

Although there aren't many, there are indeed differences.

Soon, a few minutes later, Xiao Yang felt that his strength had been restored.

He stood up and dried himself off.

After changing into another set of clothes, he glanced at the bathtub.

The water, which was originally light blue, became much lighter in color again.
