Chapter 56 Fang Han: Sister Qingxue, you still don't understand me!
In the secular world, food, after being digested by the five internal organs, is transformed into nutrients that nourish the body, as well as vital energy that drives the body's functions, and some indigestible impurities, which are eventually excreted.
Of these three parts, the vital energy that can directly drive the body's operation is also known as "Qi and Blood," which is a dynamic and active energy within the body and is also known as "Physical Strength."
The body's nutrients are used to maintain the integrity of the physical body, including bones, muscles, blood, and liver. Nutrients can also be broken down and transformed into qi and blood, but the body's nutrient reserves are generally not large. Transformation into qi and blood is only done under extreme circumstances, and even then, the amount is not very high. However, excessive depletion of nutrients can lead to various diseases, and in severe cases, death.
Impurities are not absorbed by the human body and are naturally excreted. Of course, some will remain in the body.
Therefore, ordinary food is generally composed of three components: nutrients, qi and blood, and impurities.
Pills are different; some pills contain a large amount of nutrients that can directly replenish the nutrients that the human body lacks.
Some elixirs contain a large amount of qi and blood, which can directly replenish the qi and blood lost by the body.
Some elixirs can directly replenish a person's spirit.
Furthermore, some elixirs not only contain abundant nutrients but also the essence of qi and blood.
Of course, there are also pills that contain nutrients, blood and energy, and spirit, which can replenish all three at the same time!
These kinds of pills are human-grade pills, which can be eaten directly as food to replenish the nutrients or qi and blood lost in the body.
It's worth mentioning that the elixirs in the world of immortality contain no impurities, so there won't be any instances of defecation due to consuming too many elixirs.
However, some powerful demon cultivators use the blood and souls of living beings to refine pills that contain residual spiritual imprints. Consuming too many of these pills may cause these residual spiritual imprints to invade the mind, potentially leading to mental confusion or demonic possession.
After watching Princess Hongyi leave, Fang Han closed the door, lay down on a chair in the pavilion in the courtyard, and began to check the messages in the "All Heavens Trading Group".
During these three days, he was busy with sect training and many other things, so he didn't chat much in the group.
Now that the training is over, I have secured a spot in the inner disciple trial. In just three days, I can go to the Sky Academy to enter the "Heavenly Demon Battlefield" and undergo the inner disciple assessment.
"Phew! I can finally relax a bit."
Fang Han downgraded his "innate talent" to "some talent" in order to reduce the consumption of his mental energy.
Although he possessed great innate talent, his mental strength was not much different from that of an ordinary disciple at the peak of the Divine Transformation stage.
When a person's spirit is depleted by more than half, their Qi and blood will automatically rise to the brain and undergo subtle transformations through numerous acupoints, becoming spiritual energy to replenish the deficiency. This process also consumes Qi and blood.
After three consecutive days of fighting, even he, whose mental strength far surpassed that of ordinary Divine Transformation disciples, had lost almost half of his strength. Although his mental strength had recovered to some extent, he still felt a strong sense of weakness. He even felt lightheaded and weak when walking, which was a sign of insufficient nutrition and excessive depletion of qi and blood in his body.
"Right now, my qi and blood are severely depleted, and I need to eat fifteen cows to barely replenish the nutrients I've lost and to restore one-third of my qi and blood. In other words, once my qi and blood are completely depleted, I'll need to eat ninety cow heads to regain them!"
Fang Han shook his head while reclining on the chair.
How many impurities are contained in ninety cows?
Even his poop could fill a whole truck!
In this situation, taking elixirs is the best course of action.
The food in the "Jade Dining Hall" of the outer disciples of the Feathered Ascension Sect, although free of impurities and nutritious and delicious, cannot directly replenish the depleted qi and blood or spirit in the body, and cannot increase cultivation.
To increase one's cultivation level, one can only consume elixirs.
Therefore, ordinary mortals who have undergone divine transformations typically only reach the strength of five horses at their peak, precisely because their food is so poor. They waste most of their time eating, drinking, and relieving themselves, so how can they have much time for cultivation? Moreover, their poor diet results in many impurities in their bodies, making them far inferior to immortal disciples who cultivate using elixirs.
Disciples of immortal sects have various pills to replenish their qi and blood and provide nutrition. They do not need to spend time obtaining food, nor do they need to eat, drink, or relieve themselves. They only need a few pills to meet their needs, which not only saves a lot of cultivation time, but also results in very few impurities in their bodies, thus making their qi and blood abundant.
At the peak of the Divine Transformation realm, one's strength can even reach the strength of ten horses, far exceeding the strength of five horses for a mortal Divine Transformation realm.
Thinking of this, he took out the two bottles of pills given to him by the mission elder in the Inner Immortal Hall.
One bottle contains a "Grain-Breaking Pill" (low-grade human level); the other bottle contains a "Essence Pill" (mid-grade human level).
One Bigu Pill can satisfy the nutritional needs of an ordinary Divine Transformation disciple for five days;
One Essence Pill can also satisfy the mental energy consumption of an ordinary Divine Transformation disciple for five days.
Because Fang Han's spirit and physique are extraordinary, these two pills will probably only last him for three days.
Both pills were the size of longan, with smooth, round surfaces and a radiant sheen.
After swallowing the two pills, Fang Han felt his hunger greatly reduced and eventually disappeared. His spirit became more complete, and he regained his energy.
However, the degree of physical weakness did not decrease much.
"Let's try the effects of this White Yang Pill!"
Fang Han took out the white jade gourd given to him by Fang Qingxue and poured out a pill the size of a longan, like a white rice pearl, emitting a rich fragrance.
This is the "White Sun Pill," a high-grade human-level elixir.
In the Great Xuan Empire under the Taiyi Sect, a type of rice called "Baiyang Rice" is cultivated. It absorbs the essence of the earth best, and the yield per mu can reach 30,000 to 50,000 jin. The Baiyang Rice produced is extremely nourishing.
A single Baiyang Pill requires five thousand catties of Baiyang Rice, along with numerous medicinal herbs, and undergoes multiple refining processes to extract its essence and remove its dross before it can be finally refined.
It can be said that this Baiyang Pill is a combination of the essence of five thousand catties of Baiyang Rice and many medicinal herbs.
The White Yang Pill also has the effect of replenishing qi, blood, spirit, and nutrition. It is the most suitable pill for all martial arts practitioners, and even masters in the Divine Transformation Realm are happy to use it as food. A disciple in the Divine Transformation Realm with good aptitude, if he practices superior techniques day and night and takes the White Yang Pill every day, has a 50% chance of reaching the Divine Transformation Realm in 20 or 30 years.
"As expected of a top-grade elixir, its restorative effect on the physical body is truly extraordinary!"
The pill tasted sweet and refreshing. After swallowing one White Yang Pill, Fang Han felt his blood and qi gradually becoming abundant, and his overall condition reached its peak.
"The reason Sister Qingxue gave me so many White Yang Pills is probably so that I wouldn't have to worry about food and drink, and so that I could break through to the Divine Power Realm as soon as possible!"
Fang Han naturally understood Fang Qingxue's intention.
However, with so many Baiyang Pills, does he really think Fang Han is a good-for-nothing?
"Sister Qingxue, you still don't understand me!"
Fang Han looked somewhat inexplicably melancholy.
