Let you simulate life, but you change fate every time?!

Chapter 901: Chapter 479: Eighth Life: Are You Crazy? You Treat Poison Like Food?

"This is..."

Seeing the lingzhi mushroom with its red cap and white stem, with vivid colors.

Lu Yuan’s eyelid twitched, and he couldn’t help but recall a widely circulated saying from his previous life.

Red cap and white stem,

Eat it and you’ll lie down.

If he’s not mistaken, this should be a poisonous mushroom?

"Elder, could this be... the Illusion Spirit Mushroom?"

Unlike Lu Yuan, who felt a shiver in his heart.

The other outer disciples, upon seeing this lingzhi mushroom, had eyes that sparkled, as if they had seen some rare treasure.

"That’s right, this is indeed the Illusion Spirit Mushroom, which our Cyan Cloud Sect has cultivated at great expense."

"Although it has some side effects, the medicinal power is extremely potent, able to help you quickly enter the way."

"Back in the day, Elder Sun Xiao advanced rapidly in cultivation by consuming an Illusion Spirit Mushroom daily, and within just thirty years, became a Soul Palace Realm expert."

The black-robed elder explained in detail to everyone, with great patience.

"And this top-grade Illusion Spirit Mushroom is a new product recently developed by the Alchemy Hall, with medicinal power forty percent stronger than ordinary Illusion Spirit Mushrooms."

"And the price is quite fair, just three low-grade spirit stones per mushroom. If any of you are interested, you can purchase it directly from me."

The black-robed elder smiled gently, enticing the disciples.

Upon hearing this, the other outer disciples were somewhat moved.

Because the usual price for an ordinary Illusion Spirit Mushroom is two spirit stones.

But the medicinal power of a top-grade Illusion Spirit Mushroom is 1.4 times that of the ordinary ones.

Calculating it this way.

Purchasing a top-grade Illusion Spirit Mushroom is actually more cost-effective.

"Elder, how long does the medicinal power of this Illusion Spirit Mushroom last?"

A seasoned outer disciple immediately asked.

"Seeing is believing, you’ll know its potency by trying it yourselves."

The black-robed elder smiled slightly, then looked at the coarse-clothed disciple: "Today, I’ll form a good bond with you, this Illusion Spirit Mushroom will be two spirit stones for you."

"But Elder, I am short of funds..."

The coarse-clothed disciple stared closely at the Illusion Spirit Mushroom in his hand, with a deep yearning in his eyes.

Though he was of humble origin, having been in the Cyan Cloud Sect for so long, he had naturally heard of the effects of the Illusion Spirit Mushroom.

Unfortunately, his family was dirt poor, and he couldn’t afford such a spiritual object on the small allowance as an outer disciple.

"Never mind, you can owe it for now."

"If you really can’t repay, don’t worry, our Alchemy Hall develops various new elixirs every year; you can help me test the medicines a few times, and the debt will be cleared."

The black-robed elder laughed heartily, handing over the Illusion Spirit Mushroom while speaking.

"Test the medicine?"

The coarse-clothed disciple hesitated upon hearing these words.

As the black-robed elder had said.

There’s no fixed law or shape in the world.

The Alchemy Dao of this world is also fanciful, no fixed formula, completely dependent on personal creativity and mood at the time.

Thus the new medicines that pill masters refine often have various side effects, and people dying from them is not uncommon.

"To hear the Dao in the morning, one could die in the evening, us cultivators seek the Dao single-mindedly, and have long disregarded life and death."

"Is your life more important than your long-held Martial Dao belief?"

The black-robed elder’s face sank, reprimanding without politeness.

Upon hearing this, the coarse-clothed disciple hesitated for a long time, looked at the brocade-clothed disciple, and finally gritted his teeth, taking the Illusion Spirit Mushroom over.

"A promising student indeed."

The black-robed elder nodded slightly, showing a trace of gratification.

Under the gaze of all the disciples.

The coarse-clothed disciple stuffed the Illusion Spirit Mushroom into his mouth and began chewing vigorously.

A few strands of crimson juice oozed from the corner of his mouth, together with his crazy yet resilient expression, looked rather ghastly.

Not long after.

The entire Illusion Spirit Mushroom was swallowed, and its medicinal power took effect.

"Hic~"

The coarse-clothed disciple hiccupped, then his body began to sway, staggering, like someone drunk.

His whole body quickly turned a shade of red, resembling a cooked shrimp, frighteningly red.

Yet his expression was extremely excited, as if encountering something exceedingly delightful.

At times he burst into laughter, sometimes shouted angrily, at times cried loudly, cursing as if complaining about the injustice of Heaven.

"Would kings and nobles really have a certain lineage?"

"When the scores are not settled, we are all dark horses!"

"You are just a bit more handsome than me, slightly more advanced in cultivation, with some family wealth, what’s so great about that."

"Why should I live unseen, like a rat in the gutter!"

"When Heaven confers a grand task upon a person, it must first tax their will, and weary their muscles, I am the true Child of Destiny!"

"Hee hee, I’ve already won too much from you!"

The coarse-clothed disciple laughed and cried, punching and kicking the air, saliva dribbling, with an abnormal smile, looking as if being possessed.

But as he delved deeper into the illusion, his aura surged, breaking through to the Eighth Layer of Body Refining within mere breaths!

"This is the top-grade Illusion Spirit Mushroom? Its medicinal power is indeed potent!"

Other disciples, seeing this, couldn’t help but gasp.

But Lu Yuan’s scalp tingled.

This world is indeed frightfully mad, actually using poisonous mushrooms as spirit medicine.

And judging by the black-robed elder and the outer disciples’ reactions, they seemed well accustomed to it, treating various hallucinogenic elixirs as necessities for cultivation.

"All medicine has a degree of poison, let alone taking poison as a meal, no wonder they grow mad over time."
