Chapter 5, Body Forging Level 5, Boiling Blood Pellet_1

A month had passed since the last consolidation.

Now, it was time for another one.

Returning to his room, Ye Fan informed Su Yan and then shut the door.

"System, consolidate."

Invisible power surfaced once more, beginning to remodel Ye Fan's physical body.

In Ye Fan's mind, a cultivation technique appeared: the Jiu Niu Body Refining Technique.

The experiences of the two people converged, insights about the Jiu Niu Body Refining Technique appeared in Ye Fan's mind, and then they integrated.

Both people's understanding of the Jiu Niu Body Refining Technique was merely at the beginner's level, still some distance away from the small success stage.

However, after the integration, Ye Fan's understanding of the Jiu Niu Body Refining Technique directly reached the small success stage.

In addition, Ye Fan's skin was constantly being toughened.

Once, twice.

After two times, Ye Fan's realm reached the second level of body forging.

The difference between the first three levels of body forging is not large, so after the consolidation, Ye Fan's cultivation level can reach the second level of body forging.

If the cultivation level is high in the future, and the number of people doesn't increase, it will not be easy to continue to increase the cultivation level like this.

Having completed the upgrade, Ye Fan exhaled a short puff of smoke, feeling somewhat accomplished.

The second level of body forging, and small success with the Jiu Niu Body Refining Technique.

In just an hour, Ye Fan had transformed from an ordinary person into the top expert of the Ye family.

The feeling was truly exhilarating.

The hard work he had put in during this period had now completely paid off, with returns greater than what money could offer.

However, this level of cultivation was still far from sufficient.

He must continue to enhance his strength to face future dangers.

After all, according to Ye Fan's estimate, the transmigration, the system, and the death of his parents all point to him being the protagonist.

Smooth development is practically impossible.

If he had a choice, Ye Fan would want to play a low-profile protagonist, waiting to develop his family to invincibility before venturing out.

If he wants to continue to grow in the short term, besides Ye Jintian and Ye Jinhai, it is time to develop other points.

Right, he could let Su Yan practice martial arts too.

Just as Ye Fan entered the room, he saw Su Yan feeling nauseous and hurried over to her.

"Honey, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, just suddenly felt a bit sick!" Su Yan said, rubbing her temples.

"Nauseated, did you get food poisoning?"

Ye Fan reached out, taking Su Yan's pulse.

After feeling the changes in her pulse, Ye Fan was firstly shocked, then ecstatic.

This wasn't Su Yan having food poisoning, this was her being pregnant!

I'm really awesome. This happened just in a month!

This is the kind of efficiency family development needs.

"Honey, you are going to be a mother and I am about to be a father."

Hahaha!

Ye Fan was overjoyed. Although he was already the father of two children, this feeling was somewhat different.

This ecstasy should have been influenced by Ye Fan of that world who was still single.

"What, I'm going to be a mother?"

Su Yan was a bit too shocked to react at first.

After recovering, Su Yan cautiously touched her stomach, a maternal glow on her face.

For a woman, having a child is definitely a major event in life.

Now that Su Yan was pregnant, the matter of martial arts training had to be put aside for the time being.

In addition, Ye Fan found a maid for Su Yan at the price of half a silver a month.

In the recent period, as the efficacy of the drugs formulated by Ye Fan slowly spread, the income for this month should be slightly higher than last month.

If used sparingly, it would be enough for the family to use.

In the days that followed, the Ye family's life became more regular.

The two children were very happy to hear that they would soon have a younger brother or sister, and spent a lot of time with Su Yan when they were not practicing martial arts.

For a big family, unity is the most important thing.

Ye Fan was very satisfied with the harmonious atmosphere of the family, and the speed of formulating the drugs increased quite a bit.

Just like that, in the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.

In the last six months, with Ye Fan's full provision of potions, Ye Jintian and Ye Jinhai both successfully broke through to the third level of Body Refining.

Apart from the effect of the Body Building Powder, their near-perfect practice of Jiu Niu Body Refining Technique also played a significant role.

Others at the third level of Body Refining would have just barely mastered the Jiu Niu Body Refining Technique.

Their training was fast but they encountered a bottleneck.

Their aptitude was just too low. The leap from the third to fourth level of Body Refining was like a giant door, blocking their path to further advancement.

If they wanted to continue to rapidly advance, they either had to improve their aptitude or use a more powerful potion.

Naturally, Ye Fan could continue to concoct more powerful potions. For example, the Bone Tempering Powder would be very suitable for their current use.

But a single dose of Bone Tempering Powder required nearly ten silvers just for the ingredients.

For these two guys to take one dose every seven days, along with their other expenses, they would need around a hundred silvers in a month.

This kind of money was beyond what Ye Fan could currently afford.

In the last six months, the quantity of potions sold at Five Blessings Hall had increased.

But earning an additional five to ten silvers a month was already the limit for Ye Fan.

After all, how many martial artists in a town would need Hemostatic Powder or Detoxifying Powder?

Now, he either needed to find new channels for sales, or concoct more useful potions to sell.

Ye Fan was somewhat hesitant the whole day.

He definitely couldn't sell the Body Building Powder now. So, what kind of potion could he sell that would have a better turnover, and help him make a large amount of money in a short period?

Mind-awakening Powder, Boiling Blood Pellet...

That's right! Boiling Blood Pellet would be perfect.

After using Boiling Blood Pellet, one's blood would boil, increasing the combat power by thirty percent for quarter of an hour.

However, after this short period, they would fall into a weakened state.

Although it had side effects, at critical moments, it could really work wonders.

For martial artists, it really was an essential good for home and travel.

Based on the ingredients available in Five Blessings Hall, Ye Fan made quick calculations and soon settled on an improved version of Boiling Blood Pellet.

However, before starting the concoction, Ye Fan decided to use this month's opportunity for seeking harmony first, to further enhance his own abilities a bit.

Seek Harmony!

Half an hour later, Ye Fan's cultivation level reached the fifth level of Body Refining, and his Jiu Niu Body Refining Technique reached the realm of Great Success.

The blessing of the Great Success Technique made Ye Fan stronger than the average martial artist at the fifth level of Body Refining.

Even when facing a martial artist at the sixth level of Body Refining, he would still have a fighting chance.

Next, it was time to make some money.

Hopefully, nothing major would happen!

Soon, Ye Fan arrived at Five Blessing Hall, presented a prescription, and let Wang Fu get the ingredients.

After receiving the ingredients, Ye Fan started the concoction process.

Drying, grinding, boiling the medicine, forming pellets.

He was extremely careful at every step.

For medicines like Hemostatic Powder and Detoxifying Powder, even non-pharmacists could concoct them if they had the prescription. The only difference would be in the effect.

But the Boiling Blood Pellet was a completely different level of challenge.

A slight error could lead to a huge mistake.

Even if another pharmacist were watching Ye Fan, he wouldn't worry about them copying him.

Without the necessary experience, you simply can't concoct it.

Soon, a black pellet-like Boiling Blood Pellet was made by Ye Fan, packed in a lead cloth, and handed over to Wang Fu.

Despite looking like an elixir, it still was considered as a powder.

After hearing the effects described by Ye Fan, Wang Fu's eyes widened, and then he was ecstatic.

With this kind of elixir, it was a huge boon for both Wang Fu and Five Blessings Hall.

Finally, Ye Fan sold the Boiling Blood Elixir, which Wang Fu insisted on renaming, to Five Blessings Hall at a price of eight silvers per pellet.

He laid down a rule for Wang Fu to declare that the Boiling Blood Elixir was merchandise he had purchased to sell himself.

As for how much Wang Fu wanted to sell it for, it was none of Ye Fan's business.

The ingredients were provided by Five Blessings Hall, and Ye Fan was only responsible for concocting.

Of course, Ye Fan knew it wouldn't be long before the truth came out.

But for now, he'd keep it a secret as long as he could!

At least it gave Ye Fan some ability to protect himself, so he wouldn't be afraid when the truth was revealed.
