From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Chapter 23: Chapter 23: Calf Recovery (Revised)_1



Mu Huanqing looked at Fang Ren's smiling face and pondered for a moment, then said with a smile, "I believe."

Fang Ren's smile became even more pronounced, "Why do you believe? Tell me your reasons."

Mu Huanqing turned around, opened the drawer behind her, took out an iron box, and said, "If these things were all refined by Ah Ran himself, then Ah Ran must also have the ability to refine three-level pills."

Fang Ren watched her take out his treasured little iron box, reached out to rub her head of white hair, and said with a smile, "How did you find it?"

"I saw it by chance yesterday," Mu Huanqing said, pointing to the several brown pills inside the small iron box. "I have never seen these before, but they seem to have a very rich color and aroma, so they should be very good pills."

"These things are called Blood Activation Pills, not part of the standard range of pills, usually used to activate blood circulation and dissipate blood stasis," Fang Ren explained.

"Mother and Shang Han said that Ah Ran's academic performance is very poor, always ranking at the bottom in theoretical exams, but I always feel that Ah Ran cannot be that bad," Mu Huanqing said as she looked at him.

"Don't tell Uncle Han about the pill stuff; he never knew I messed around with these things," Fang Ren said as he took out another White Elixer. "I still don't know the effects of this thing. If the theory I've come up with holds true, then it might be able to cure Sister Hui Qing's legs."

"You don't know the effects?" Mu Huanqing blinked, "Just refined?"

"Right, I'll test the effects first. If it's useful, Sister Hui Qing can take it."

After speaking, Fang Ren was about to throw the White Elixer in his hands into his mouth.

Mu Huanqing immediately grabbed his hand to stop him and frowned slightly, "Is it refined from these medicinal materials?"

So saying, Mu Huanqing picked up a piece of white paper from the table. This paper was what Fang Ren had used to record the medicinal materials that night, all the necessary items for this three-level pill.

"Yeah," Fang Ren replied.

"Having these medicinal ingredients together, wouldn't the cold nature be very strong? A normal person would have problems after consuming it," Mu Huanqing said.

"But Chi Lianjing has the effect of absorbing cold nature, plus I added Yang Shoot which is usually used to enhance True Qi, but most people overlook that its cold resistance is very strong..." Fang Ren eloquently talked about a lot of things regarding the pill, not caring whether Mu Huanqing on the other side understood or not; as long as he convinced her the pill was safe.

Fang Ren was also very confident about the safety of the pill.

Mu Huanqing, who didn't have much deep research in this area, just knew a little about the function of medicinal herbs.

"But Ah Ran doesn't have True Qi in his body, eating this thing would be too much for his body to bear," Mu Huanqing said.

"No problem, the pill's potency was refined by Cold Fire, it won't cause any harm to a normal body," Fang Ren asserted as he directly tossed the White Elixer in his hand into his mouth.

"I go... so bitter!"

The moment the pill entered his mouth, Fang Ren struggled with the expression on his face and then sat on the bed beside him, waiting for the medicine to take effect.

"How do you feel?" Mu Huanqing asked.

"A bit numb," Fang Ren frowned and said.

"How about now?"

"My insides feel warm," he replied.

"Isn't the pill supposed to be cold? Why would it be warm?"

"Some cold things when put together can actually turn warm..." Fang Ren began to explain.

Before he could finish his sentence, Fang Ren immediately lay down on the bed; he felt a sudden restlessness within him.

Seeing him like this, Mu Huanqing immediately rolled her wheelchair to the bedside to see what was going on with him.

"It's nothing, just feeling a bit annoyed," Fang Ren said, frowning.

Mu Huanqing didn't say anything more, just quietly observing his physical condition.

As time gradually passed, the sensation of heat within Fang Ren's body began to converge toward his lower abdomen. Then, he started to feel an itchiness there, as if something was growing inside.

This feeling was incredibly strange. He could perceive the growth in his lower abdomen with his consciousness, yet his lower abdomen did not physically come into contact with whatever was growing.

It was as if that thing had no physical form.

This sensation... Fang Ren thought for a moment. It was just like the Spiritual Root that only Cultivators possessed within their bodies—existing within the body, untouchable by flesh, yet perceivable by the mind.

"No way, did I actually develop a pill that can turn ordinary people into Cultivators!" Fang Ren's mind was a tumult of shock, "Wouldn't that be defying the heavens!?"

Slap—

Next, he felt all the energy within his body suddenly disperse, spreading throughout every energy meridian in his body, followed by an extremely comfortable sensation stimulating all his nerves.

"Ah..."

He couldn't help but cry out, looking as blissful as could be. If someone who didn't know any better saw him, they might even think he was gay...

"Ah Ran, are you alright?"

Mu Huanqing looked at him with a face full of concern.

After shouting, Fang Ren immediately sat up in bed, slightly moved his body and found himself feeling much lighter. Moreover, all the energy meridians in his body were very active and even showed signs of vigorous growth!

He could even make any energy meridian in his body pulsate with a single thought, just like... the unique energy meridians inside a Cultivator's body.

"This thing... is too miraculous," Fang Ren said, staring blankly at his own hands.

"Is there any change?" Mu Huanqing watched him as he blinked blankly.

Fang Ren reached out and touched the anklet on his leg. With this touch, he was stunned; the energy meridians in his body were indeed different from ordinary people. Although they did not pulsate with True Qi like a Cultivator's, there was a very fine line of True Qi flow on them.

But... he didn't have any True Qi inside him, so this was useless.

"It seems like the energy meridians inside my body are starting to grow," Fang Ren said, turning to look at Mu Huanqing.

"Energy meridians growing?" Mu Huanqing was slightly startled. To this day, there was still no method known on Earth that could revive energy meridians, let alone a pill that could promote their growth.

"Sister Hui Qing, try taking the pill. Even if it can't restore your legs' ability to walk, it could still greatly improve your health, and there are no side effects," Fang Ren suggested.

Mu Huanqing nodded and put the White Elixer that Fang Ren had given her earlier into her mouth.

As expected, it was quite bitter. Her two fine eyebrows involuntarily furrowed together, but not long after, a look of astonishment appeared on her face.

Initially, she felt a numbness all over her body, followed by an irritating feeling that wandered within, eventually spreading through all her energy meridians and amassing greatly at her severed meridians.

In comparison to Fang Ren, her Spiritual Root was unharmed. Hence, the energy from the pill did not gather in her lower abdomen but instead chose to heal her broken energy meridians.

"It's okay, it will pass in a moment.

The effects of the pill lasted rather long on her, well over ten minutes. Just when the feeling of irritability in her heart was about to cease, Mu Huanqing suddenly felt a change in her body.

Fang Ren's gaze had not left her legs for the entire duration of over ten minutes; his expression had shifted from concern to calm, then from calm to surprise, and eventually from surprise to ecstatic joy.

"My legs... have sensation," Mu Huanqing said, dazed.
