Elixir of Major Mana

  Early in the morning, everything is full of life and vitality.

  Xia Ming carried a backpack with bread and milk, and came again to the Green Caterpillar Forest.

  Since it would take three more days to obtain the other four herbs needed for the "Source of Magic Potion", these three days couldn't be wasted, so Xiaoming took on many adventure tasks and once again ventured into the Green Caterpillar Forest alone.

  The previous adventure gave Xiaoming a great stimulus, in this world where fists speak louder than words, strength is the only truth. Among his peers, Tang Ge and Su Weiwei were both level 5 or 6 professionals, and Xiaoming had no reason to fall behind. Of course, Xiaoming had only been practicing magic for over a month.

  However, Xia Ming had no such realization. Having just escaped being a rookie, he still didn't know how terrifying his current cultivation speed was.

  Xia Ming was not satisfied with his own cultivation speed. The pressure of life and death could stimulate potential, so Xia Ming came to the Green Caterpillar Forest again, but he was alone, and Xia Ming could only adventure on the periphery.

  With the Flame Staff in hand, Xiaoming ventured into the forest, scouting out the terrain.

  At last, Xiaoming found a region where demons were scarce and began his new adventure with caution.

  This area is mainly inhabited by 【Lion Scorpions】, a third-level magical beast that Xia Ming can barely handle alone.

  A 【Lion Scorpion】 emerged from the forest, this demon beast contains highly toxic venom, its body length of two to three meters is also very intimidating, but Xiaoming's eyes remained calm, he raised his hand and held up the Earth Flame Staff, a string of smooth notes flowed out.

  "Aquatic Prison!"

  This is also a first-class trap magic recorded in the Book of Eternity. A faint blue light suddenly appeared under [Lion Scorpion], and Lion Scorpion's movements seemed to be locked, becoming extremely slow.

  The Roar of the Fire God!

  The tip of the Staff of Earthfire floated up a brilliant light, and the fire elemental spirit flashed into existence. This terrifying third-tier fire magic was once again unleashed, like a giant flame beast opening its massive jaws to swallow the Lion Scorpion whole...

  Seeing the lion scorpion struggling in the flames, Xiaoming's eyes became even calmer, and then another violent gust of wind was released...

  ……

  Three days later, Xiaoming spent all his time in the Green Caterpillar Forest. In these three days, Xiaoming almost killed all the magical beasts on the outskirts of the forest - Snake Scorpions, Storm Wolves, Demonized Wild Boars... Xiaoming even killed a young fourth-level magical beast, the Earthquake Bear.

  Of course, he also paid a painful price for this. The starry robe on his body had been broken in several big holes and could no longer be worn. His body was covered with scars, and several times he was ambushed by the magic beast and almost seriously injured.

  But all of this was worth it, as Xia Ming felt that his magical powers had made sufficient progress and growth, seemingly having already touched the bottleneck of a 4th-level magician, with the possibility of advancing at any moment, needing only one final push.

  After these three days of life and death struggle, Xia Ming's temperament has also undergone a great change, becoming more calm and mature than before.

  Stretching his body, Xiaoming's face showed an excited smile: Although it was only three days, the change in strength could be described as earth-shattering, and he had mastered almost all magic below level 3 without any obstacles.

  What delighted Xia Ming most was that today was the day when Wanxiang Trading Company would deliver the four herbs.

  Back in town, he changed into a black cloak and reappeared at the entrance of Wanxiang Trading House.

  The trading floor was still bustling with activity. As Xiaoming entered, the receptionist who had greeted him last time immediately brightened up and came over to welcome him.

  "Respected sir, you are indeed a man of your word. Our person in charge has prepared all the materials for you, please follow me."

  Xia Ming nodded and followed the welcoming lady as she turned left and right, arriving at a secluded spot.

  "Please wait for a moment, I'll go to the warehouse and get the herbs for you." The receptionist left for a short while and came back soon with a hint of smile on her face, holding a black bag: "Sir, here are your herbs."

  Xia Ming received a black bag, opened it and took a look. A strong herbal smell wafted out. Inside the black cloth bag were Bi Xue Hua, Yuan Su Ye, Sheng Ling Mu Ye, and Qian Jin Cao - four kinds of herbs. Each type of herb was in sufficient quantity. Xia Ming estimated that there was enough to make at least two portions of "Magic Source Medicine".

  Xia Ming nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad, thank you." Xia Ming knew that this time he had indeed owed a favor to the beautiful woman Yuna, but it didn't matter, as long as he could refine the medicine and sell it at the Wanxiang Trading House later.

  He nodded slightly at the receptionist and Xiaoming left the Wanxiang Trading Company.

  ……

  Xia Ming rented an underground alchemy room in the city-state, and the previous owner of this underground alchemy room was a medicine enthusiast who was extremely obsessed with potion-making. As a result, all the equipment inside the alchemy room was complete, so Xia Ming quickly rented it out, for which he also paid a price of 500 gold coins.

  The money Anthony left for himself was getting less and less, Xiaoming couldn't help but sigh at the expensive profession of being a magician.

  Looking at the full set of instruments in the alchemy room, Xiaoming's face showed a satisfied expression. The crucibles and test tubes under the lamp light reflected a crystal clear glow, and Xiaoming's gaze at these instruments was like that of a soldier on the battlefield looking at his own weapons.

  Xia Ming took out the elemental crystal and other herbs, the crystal clear elemental crystal emitted a dazzling light, the icy blue glow reflected Xia Ming's elegant face.

  Xia Ming's expression turned serious, his eyes fixed on the instrument on the table, he straightened his body and adjusted his state to its best.

  In the "Eternal Tome", the Source of Magical Power is a fifth-level potion. And any knowledge that can be opened in the Eternal Tome, as if he was born with it, is deeply imprinted on his mind, merged with his original memories, and he can use it easily.

  So Xiaoming seemed to be not worried, skilled and agile, as if he had experimented thousands of times, with a wave of his hand and a slight movement, a small flame emerged while reciting, the flame was very small, but the temperature was surprisingly high, this is a necessary skill for every pharmacist.

  Xia Ming then poured the Elemental Liquid into the test tube.

  The green element's liquid emitted a thick breath and flowed into the test tube.

  The air was filled with the unique flavor of Elemental Liquid, which was the best carrier that could fully absorb the medicinal properties of other herbs. Xiaoming's fingers moved slightly as he gently swirled and rotated the test tube, allowing the medicinal properties of the Elemental Liquid to be better activated.

  "Next is Azure Blood Flower!"

  Xia Mingquan was fully focused and completely immersed in the process of refining medicine, his mind and spirit merged as one. With lightning speed, he picked up the Azure Blood Flower with one hand!
