Chapter 90: The Effect of the Bone Blood Pill
Looking at the Bone Blood Pill in his hand, Zhou Yu gave a bitter smile, then placed it into a small vial. It had given him hope, but now that hope was taken back.
Previously, he thought he had almost grasped some patterns of the Radio, but now it seemed he still hadn’t studied the Radio thoroughly enough.
From today’s situation, it appeared he had to wait until Elder Zheng handed both the Bone Blood Pill and the secret technique into the hands of the cultivation-rich second-generation heir Zheng Hao before he could use the Radio to think inwardly about obtaining them.
Otherwise, like now, only getting the Bone Blood Pill without even a trace of the secret technique was just too awkward.
Zhou Yu capped the small medicine bottle and placed it in a drawer, planning to study tomorrow whether the Bone Blood Pill could be consumed.
Turning back, he looked at the Radio on the table, shook his head with a smile, picked it up, and turned it off.
At this moment, the lightning outside the window had already stopped, disappearing along with his hope. Zhou Yu lay down on the bed, tossed and turned in thought for a while, and quietly fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Zhou Yu woke up. He first opened the drawer to look at the small medicine bottle, feeling filled with frustration inside. He closed the drawer, planning to finish his morning tasks first before studying it further.
As soon as he opened the living room door and stepped into the yard, Huzi, Dabao, Xiaobao, Gan Gan and Cui Cui, and the Golden Eagle all surrounded him. Their desire to eat Wind Eagle Meat was clearly written on their faces.
Although Huzi the three dogs, Gan Gan and Cui Cui the two raccoons, and the Golden Eagle looked different, their eager eyes were exactly the same, making Zhou Yu chuckle. “Have you never eaten meat before? Go do what you need to do now. We’ll eat after I finish exercising.” Saying this, he waved his hand, shooing all the animals to the side.
Facing the rising sun, Zhou Yu exercised for a while. When he turned to go back, he found Xiaobai had already arrived and was playing with Gan Gan and Cui Cui alongside Xiaobao.
Zhou Yu felt a bit speechless. When external enemies arrived, previous enemies would indeed unite.
When Xiaobai first came, he played with Huzi. When Dabao and Xiaobao arrived, Huzi and Xiaobai played with them. Now that Gan Gan and Cui Cui were here, Xiaobao, Xiaobai, and the others started playing with these two raccoons.
However, there was one exception: the Golden Eagle. So far, Huzi and Xiaobai had never played with this Golden Eagle.
This Golden Eagle didn’t stay in the yard all the time. It would fly out for a while at certain intervals and then fly back, as if it truly considered this place home.
As for Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao, the three dogs, after the joint operation to catch the raccoons the night before last, they also dropped their previous hostile stance toward the Golden Eagle and no longer barked beneath the tree.
Probably they also knew barking was useless; the Golden Eagle wasn’t even interested in looking at them.
Zhou Yu clapped his hands lightly. Immediately, the animals in the yard all perked up and came rushing over, running and jumping. As for the Golden Eagle, it flapped its wings from the tree and flew straight down.
“Everyone get your food bowls ready. I’m going to cut the meat.” Zhou Yu looked at this crowd waiting for their meal and said with a smile.
Back in the room, he opened the fridge and took out several pieces of meat from the cooler. Every night, he would move some meat from the freezer to the cooler.
Out in the yard, the two raccoons, Gan Gan and Cui Cui, stood there looking completely confused, still unsure what to do. Zhou Yu burst out laughing, fetched two small bowls from the kitchen, and gave them as their food bowls.
During feeding, these two still took their meat to the nearby water basin to wash it, which was truly both funny and exasperating.
Zhou Yu then took out the barbecue grill and started grilling the meat. While grilling the Wind Eagle Meat, he brushed on some honey from the Immortal World, so delicious he almost wanted to eat his own fingers.
Eating honey-grilled Wind Eagle Meat, drinking honey tea, eating grapes, and watching the group of animals in the yard, he felt extremely relaxed and content.
After the meal, it was time to feed the Spirit Beast Pills. He thought for a moment, took out one Spirit Beast Pill, split it in half, and fed it to Gangan and Cuicui. After all, these two little ones were now part of the family.
After finishing his morning tasks, Zhou Yu took out the small vial containing the Bone Blood Pill from the room. He poured out one aromatic pill. This pill was slightly larger than the Spirit Beast Pill.
According to Elder Zheng’s introduction from the Radio, its effect was much greater than the Spirit Beast Pill’s. After consuming all twenty pills, one’s physical body could withstand attacks from a Foundation Building Realm cultivator with thirty percent of their power. Although not explained in detail, he believed this referred to pure physical defense without using any cultivation.
In the Immortal World, this might not be too astonishing, but in the Earth World, with such a robust physique, taking on dozens of people probably wouldn’t be a problem.
Looking at this pill, Zhou Yu really wanted to put it in his mouth and try it. But after careful consideration, he still felt he should be cautious. Although the pill, blended with Spirit Grass, became gentle enough for ordinary people below the Foundation Building Realm to consume, it likely required the training secret technique of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect to control it properly.
However, he couldn’t just stare at these body-enhancing pills and give up for nothing. Who knew how long it would take to obtain the training secret technique? Unable to communicate with the Immortal World, he could only passively receive things randomly for now.
Zhou Yu looked at the pill and came up with an idea. Since he didn’t know if the pill’s potency would be too much for his body to bear, he could only use the simplest method: dilution.
He took the pill to the kitchen and tried to cut it with a knife. It took a great effort to split the Bone Blood Pill in half. Cutting the Spirit Beast Pill before hadn’t been this difficult.
Looking at the halved pill, Zhou Yu wondered if this thing would even digest if eaten.
He put away the other half, took a bowl to the well, filled it with water, and then placed his halved pill into it. Previously, he had done an experiment by putting a Spirit Beast Pill in water; it dissolved upon contact. He didn’t know if this Bone Blood Pill, which was so hard to cut, would do the same.
Sure enough, just as he guessed, less than five seconds after dropping the half Bone Blood Pill into the water, it fused with the water.
Originally a bowl of clear water, after half a Bone Blood Pill dissolved into it, it became a brown medicinal soup, emitting a rich fragrance.
Zhou Yu first tried sipping a little with his mouth. After the medicinal soup entered his mouth, it turned into a stream of warmth that rushed to all parts of his body.
This stream of warmth seemed a bit stronger than what the Wind Eagle Meat brought. He felt his body gradually grow warm but experienced no discomfort; it was still bearable.
Next, he opened his mouth and took a gulp. A stream of warmth, stronger than before, rushed throughout his body again.
The appearance of this warmth made Zhou Yu’s whole body feel hot. He couldn’t help but stand up and practice some martial arts for a while. After finishing, he felt refreshed and clear-headed all over.
This probably meant the medicinal power was expended. He felt some regret inside. If he had obtained the training secret technique of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, this medicinal power might have already transformed into energy within his body.
Without the training secret technique, he didn’t know how much medicinal power his body could absorb. But this was still much better than leaving the Bone Blood Pill unused and worthless.
After testing his body’s capacity, Zhou Yu looked at the medicinal soup in the bowl, then drank half the bowl in one go.
After drinking this half-bowl of medicinal soup, a massive stream of warmth entered his body, making his face start to turn red.
Zhou Yu practiced some martial arts in the yard but felt his body growing hotter and hotter, as if reaching an uncontrollable level. He quickly told Huzi to watch over the medicinal soup, then directly rushed from the yard to the sea and jumped straight in from above.
In the sea, he swam around like crazy, paying no attention to his direction or speed, only wanting to release the heat inside his body.
