The pill lted the mont it entered his stomach, turning into a searing heat that rolled through him, much like the burn of a potent liquor.
Then, Zhang Bin felt his head begin to ache.
"Ah..."
He clutched his head, letting out a scream of agony as terror washed over his face.
Could it be poisoning?
He imdiately looked up at the youth on the screen with pleading eyes.
The youth made a gesture for him to calm down, offering a kind smile that seed to assure Zhang Bin that everything was fine. This helped calm Zhang Bin’s heart a little.
The headache persisted for half an hour before finally subsiding. An expression of surprise appeared on Zhang Bin’s face as he felt his mind beco incredibly clear and pristine, as if it had been washed clean with water.
More astonishingly, when he resud studying the alien language and script, it beca incredibly easy. He could perfectly recall anything he saw or heard.
Could that have been a high-tech pill for developing brain cells? Is that why I’ve undergone such a significant change? If I’d had this kind of mory before, I wouldn’t have ended up as a simple farr! I definitely would have been admitted to a prestigious university. Zhang Bin mused in shock and regret while he effortlessly continued learning the alien language.
Stars, planets, moons, the sky, the earth, rivers, trees, various colors...
The alien language software taught at an increasingly rapid pace, but it remained structured and was accompanied by various conversational diagrams.
About five hours later, Zhang Bin had astonishingly finished learning the entire alien language—a truly miraculous feat.
Eagerly, he began to communicate with the youth in the alien language.
"Hello, I am Zhang Bin. My occupation is a farr, and I am on Earth in the Milky Way Galaxy."
"Hello, I am Gao Si. I am a doctor from Xuanwu Star in the Milky Way Galaxy," the youth replied excitedly.
He’s a doctor? I wonder if he can cure my father’s illness? Zhang Bin mused with a spark of hope as he continued the exchange.
Soon, he understood that Xuanwu Star was enormous, more than ten tis the size of Earth. It was ho to many intelligent species, such as the Dragon Clan, the Phoenix Clan, Elves, Dwarves, and the Human Clan. However, there was only one powerful empire: the Xuanwu Empire.
Their civilization was similar to Earth’s; it was primarily a technological civilization but was supplented by a cultivation civilization.
Xuanwu Star had a recorded history spanning 100,000 years. During that ti, cultivation had flourished to its peak, and many powerful experts had erged. They possessed long lifespans, with so even living for over 80,000 years.
Their technology was also extrely advanced. They could manufacture super-advanced rockets capable of reaching the speed of light. They had also developed a miraculous communication device that allowed for instant conversation, no matter how far apart the two parties were.
This made exploring the universe simple. Thus, the Xuanwu Star People had currently mapped a region of space with a radius of 80,000 light-years.
It was 80,000 years ago that they first detected a planet in the Solar System similar to their own—Earth. They dispatched a probe rocket and a communication device, and after 80,000 years, it finally arrived.
However, a massive war erupted 10,000 years ago, causing imnse devastation to Xuanwu Star. Although technology continued to advance, the planet’s vegetation was almost completely wiped out. As a result, the Xuanwu Star People could no longer practice cultivation. They were forced to use technological ans to strengthen their bodies and extend their lifespans.
Of course, they were also actively searching for another Green Planet.
Gao Si had only obtained that special phone capable of contacting Earthlings because of the war; he had found it amidst the ruins of the Empire Technology University. He had kept it as an antique. Today, when he tried making a call, he was shocked when it actually connected.
Gao Si was indeed a doctor, but he was very poor. His dical skills were based on cultivating the Qingmu Longevity Technique, which required him to perform Qi gathering from plants. After the war on Xuanwu Star, with plants nearly extinct, Qi gathering had beco extrely difficult. His cultivation stalled, so his dical skills could not improve. Naturally, very few people sought him for treatnt.
"Your Earth’s technological civilization is very backward. It seems I can’t get any help from you," Gao Si said, his face a mask of bitterness. "Is it my fate to be born into poverty?"
There are countless plants on Earth, so cultivating the Qingmu Longevity Technique should be very easy. Then I could learn his dical skills! Not only could I earn money, but I could also cure my dad’s illness. Zhang Bin’s eyes lit up, shining with a fervent light. He racked his brains for a mont until a confident plan ford in his mind. He said, "Gao Si, I have a way to change your situation and help you gain imnse wealth."
"What way?" Gao Si asked expectantly.
"You should change careers and beco a writer," Zhang Bin said forcefully. "I can provide you with countless exciting novels, which will make you the most famous writer on Xuanwu Star."
"Are the novels from your Earth... really that exciting?" Gao Si stamred, his own excitent making him trip over his words. He agreed that this was likely the best solution, as writers were highly respected on Xuanwu Star.
"Absolutely brilliant. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied." After Zhang Bin finished speaking, he confidently recounted a segnt of "Journey to the West."
An expression of pure delight appeared on Gao Si’s face. His eyes shone with an intense light that nearly lted Zhang Bin. He said excitedly, "Alright, let’s make our first deal. You provide with the content of ’Journey to the West’ so I can beco a great writer on Xuanwu Star and acquire a huge fortune. In return, I will teach you my dical skills and the ’Qingmu Longevity Technique.’ It will surely make you rich and powerful, turning you into the strongest and wealthiest farr on Earth—one who also possesses magical dical skills and a long lifespan."
"Deal," Zhang Bin agreed without hesitation, his heart filled with anticipation. As long as he learned the alien dical arts and the Qingmu Longevity Technique, he could surely make a fortune. He might also be able to cure his father’s illness and change his family’s destiny.
But he still asked worriedly, "Can I really learn the dical skills and the Qingmu Longevity Technique?"
Gao Si’s reply filled him with both shock and joy!
Cultivating the Qingmu Longevity Technique was, in fact, incredibly difficult. One had to first consu a Wisdom Pill to develop their brain and enhance their spiritual power.
One had to understand that even on present-day Xuanwu Star, no one could refine Wisdom Pills anymore. This was because the pill required over a thousand different herbs, and due to the war, Xuanwu Star no longer had any plants, let alone dicinal herbs.
Therefore, even Gao Si himself had never taken a Wisdom Pill. He had rely used technology to enhance his spiritual power, which was how he t the minimum requirent to practice the Qingmu Longevity Technique.
The green pill Zhang Bin had taken was, in fact, a Wisdom Pill. It was originally intended to develop the brain’s potential, making intelligent beings smarter so they could learn the Xuanwu language and communicate with the people of Xuanwu Star by phone. But now, it had serendipitously allowed Zhang Bin to et the basic requirents for cultivation
