Chapter 375: Chapter 288: Life-replenishing Elixir, Longevity Pill, Turtle Longevity Pill_2

Recalling the forecast by the sunglasses-wearing girl that his Core Formation would consume 180 years of his lifespan, Chen Mobai decided to further embellish Chen Xinglan’s story.

Yu Rulin appeared slightly surprised upon hearing this.

“There shouldn’t be techniques in the fairy gate that can reduce your lifespan by 30 years. Generally speaking, techniques that cost more than ten years have been classified as forbidden. Only our Life-extension Cultivation Institute has some information about them due to our research needs. Could it be that your esteemed father used several of these techniques?”

“Exactly, the situation my father encountered was very difficult, it was a matter of life and death, so he used several of them.”

Chen Mobai was not aware of these specifics and could only carry on with Yu Rulin’s line of questioning. Luckily, the latter did not probe deeper, assuming that the Chief’s father from the Dance Tool Dao Academy was a True Cultivator who underwent the Foundation Establishment, hence the greater lifespan consumption.

“Above the Life-replenishing Elixir, there is a Rank-2 Longevity Pill. Each pill consumed restores 10 years of your lifespan. True Cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage can take up to 9 pills. After that, they will develop a resistance. Even though you can still take it, the effectiveness will gradually diminish.”

Chen Mobai quickly calculated in his mind. The Life-replenishing Elixir gave 30 years, coupled with the Longevity Pills’s 90 years; altogether, they could restore 120 years of his lifespan. But he was still 60 years short of 180 years predicted by the fortune teller.

However, he could continue taking Longevity Pills as long as he could afford to buy them, so the 60 years shouldn’t be a problem.

“Are there any other Elixirs that could replenish one’s lifespan?”

To be on the safe side, Chen Mobai asked another question.

“That would be the Turtle Longevity Pill, one of the highest achievements of our Life-extension Cultivation Institute. After taking this Rank-3 Spirit Pill, you can regain 60 years of your lifespan.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai’s eyes lit up. With just three pills, he could completely counteract the side effects of the longevity tree fruit.

“How much is this elixir, and how can I buy it?”

Yu Rulin shook his head indicating that such a pill had no price and couldn’t be bought.

“Generally, the Life-replenishing Elixir and Longevity Pill are sufficient for those in the fairy gate. The Turtle Longevity Pill isn’t necessarily made even once in a hundred years. The last time our institute made it was because a Golden Core True Person from the Five Thunder Academy failed to transition to Nascent Soul due to lifespan burning. He collected the ingredients himself, and along with some good fortune, managed to auction off a piece of bark from the Big Toon Tree at Sentence Mang Dao Academy. This enabled him to barely get the ingredients together for a batch.”

After hearing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but give up on the idea, and instead turned his focus to the Life-replenishing Elixir and Longevity Pill.

After asking about the prices, he found out that the Life-replenishing Elixir was relatively cheaper, priced officially by the Life-extension Cultivation Institute at 8,888 Good Deed Points per pill. As a chief, Yu Rulin could get the item at a rounded-off price.

8,800, a very auspicious number.

On the other hand, the Longevity Pill was much more expensive, costing 128,888 Good Deed Points per pill.

After rounding off, it came to 128,800.

Comparing the prices and effects, the Life-replenishing Elixir had a higher cost-performance ratio. However, to counterbalance the side effects of the longevity tree fruit, Chen Mobai had to take the Longevity Pills.

Chen Mobai checked his account balance. Although he was once quite wealthy due to the sale of Foundation Establishment treasures to Shen Juanxiu, had over a million Good Deed Points at one point, after paying back his parents’ loan and the drain of these past few years, he was left with barely tens of thousands.

He barely could afford a single Longevity Pill and three Life-replenishing Elixirs.

Chen Mobai didn’t want to admit he was broke and could only make up the excuse that he wanted to buy one of each for his father to taste the effects.

Yu Rulin didn’t suspect anything. After collecting the money, he made a phone call in front of Chen Mobai. Before long, Le Chengwei from the clinic stall arrived.

He brought along two beautifully packaged elixirs.

After taking them, Chen Mobai looked at the bottom of the boxes. Sure enough, they were labeled with the prescription for the Life-replenishing Elixir and the Longevity Pill, as well as the instructions for use and various notes of caution.

Once he had accepted them to his satisfaction, he expressed his thanks to Yu Rulin.

The two parted on good terms, even becoming friends before parting. Yu Rulin, who had made a good profit, unhesitatingly picked up the bill for the coffee.

Chen Mobai considered his trip to the exchange meeting a great success.

Unfortunately, he was short on funds. Otherwise, he could directly consume the small fruit he obtained from Yan Jinye, ascend to the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment using the Immortality technique.

On his way back, Chen Mobai had an idea and revisited the alley.

Unfortunately, the sunglasses-wearing girl who told fortunes was no longer there.

He stood there for a while before leaving.

Hua Zijing was still petting the cat in front of the True Spiritual Academy’s booth.

The pure white, smooth fur of the cat, contrasted by her black and red robe – Chen Mobai couldn’t help but pause at the sight of her gentle smile.

As he had guessed, she did have a rather attractive smile when she laughed.

“Oh, it’s you.”

Hua Zijing had also noticed Chen Mobai. She stood and placed the white cat into the adjacent kennel before approaching him.

“You can continue playing if you want. I’ve finished what I came here to do.”

Now that Chen Mobai’s difficulties had been resolved, he was in a happy mood. He didn’t want to disturb Hua Zijing’s rare leisure time, seeing how she had spent half of the day accompanying him.

“No, even though I like cats very much, it’s not mine. The more fun you have, the more melancholic the parting is. Now is a good time.”

Hua Zijing’s words left an impression on Chen Mobai.

She seemed to understand quite a lot.

However, seeing her reluctant expression as she looked back at the white cat in the kennel, Chen Mobai had a sudden thought.
