Super Devouring Level Up - Chapter 9
Chapter 9: Alchemist Apprentice
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Blood Ginseng was a Medium-Grade Level-one spiritual medicine. Although it was only a Level-one artifact, it was worth thousands of gold coins.
Spiritual medicines were divided into the grades—Level-one to Level-nine, and each grade was further divided into high, medium, and low. Even if it was Low-Grade Level-one, it was still a hot commodity in this Green Valley Town.
Since the clan leader was willing to give such a precious item to Jaidon, it meant that he had not completely given up on him.
The Blood Ginseng in his hand transformed into a ball of warm energy and entered his body. Following the circulation route of the Flame Mantra, it flowed through his meridians before returning to his energy center.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 1,500 Devouring Points!”
“Level up!”
Buzz!
Two rays of yellow light flashed around Jaidon.
Host: Jaidon
Cultivation: Level-five Battle Apprentice
Devouring Points: 0 (Limit: None)
Essence Energy: 100
Cultivation Method: Booker Family’s Cultivation Technique, Flame Mantra
Martial Skills: Stone Shattering Fist, Thousand Spirits Destructive Palm, Gold Ingot Fist
Rage: 50 (Capability will be unleashed along with Rage)
Based on his current capability, Jaidon believed that, with his previous battle experience and the Thousand Spirits Destructive Palm, defeating a Level-six Battle Apprentice would not be a problem. But it would be very difficult for him to defeat a Level-seven one.
The Five Great Generals were at the ranks of Battle Master. Even the weakest, Aaron, was a Level-five Battle Master. If he couldn’t improve his capability as soon as possible, he would be like a fish on the chopping board.
At this moment, a system prompt sounded.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the Devouring special characteristic and obtaining the Alchemist Apprentice badge!”
Jaidon was stunned. What the hell was this badge?
Could it be that the Blood Ginseng had triggered a hidden function?
Opening the system interface, Jaidon found that a badge page had appeared in the upper right corner.
He clicked on it and saw a bright icon.
[Alchemist Apprentice Badge]
[Value: One Star]
[Rarity: One Star]
[Usage: Proficiency in various entry-level alchemy skills]
“Do you want to wear it?”
“Yes or no?”
Jaidon was instantly excited upon reading it. This was freaking good stuff!
The status of an alchemist in this world was much higher than that of ordinary cultivators. Furthermore, it was a profession that could easily earn gold.
In Green Valley Town, there was only one highly respected Rank-one alchemist.
For a family like the Bookers, ordinary alchemists would not even look at them.
As soon as he put on the badge, a massive amount of knowledge of cultivating medicine flooded into his mind. He could tell the medicines apart and determine their properties with a single glance as if he was playing with them.
Awesome!
As expected, the system’s products were definitely top quality!
After obtaining such a special badge, Jaidon would not just sit there. He jumped off the bed and prepared to test out the benefits brought about by this skill.
As soon as he stepped out, he bumped into Andrea, who had just returned.
“Master, I’ve heard that the Prince has already been sent back to his residence.”
Provoking Darren would definitely lead to greater trouble, but Jaidon had never regretted crippling this fellow.
It was already good enough that he did not kill the man who dared to covet his woman.
“Andrea, you did very well.” Jaidon stroked Andrea’s beautiful hair, a look of enjoyment erupted on her face.
Helping her Master was her greatest happiness.
“King Jarold has gone to war, and the residence is currently empty. I still have time to improve myself…” Jaidon muttered.
But he didn’t have much time.
When they arrived at the storeroom where the finances were settled, a person looking like a butler was enthusiastically handing over the monthly allowance to a Booker family disciple.
After he left, Jaidon walked forward.
“Butler Lee, you were the one who confiscated the money in my room, right?” Jaidon said coolly.
The smiling Butler Lee turned around. When he saw Jaidon, his face fell.
“Go, go, go. What money in your room? Hurry up and leave!”
This Butler Lee was extremely stingy and liked to curry favor with others. He had never been nice to the useless Jaidon.
As he turned around, he muttered, “A piece of trash wants money? Why don’t you look in the mirror…”
Before he could say anything, he was kicked from behind, causing his fat body to fall onto the ground.
Stepping on his fatty flesh, Jaidon said with an unchanging expression, “Are you giving me the money or not?”
“Ouch, ouch, ouch! Here, here!”
Butler Lee was just too cheap!
If he didn’t teach him a lesson, Lee would really think that he was a pushover.
Jaidon took the money and left in satisfaction, not caring about the other party’s attitude.
After leaving the Booker residence, he finally had a chance to take a good look at this foreign land.
This world that was different from Earth was called the Mystic Realm.
The level of technological development could only be compared to that of the feudal era on Earth, but the power of the warriors was unprecedentedly strong.
They could fight against the heavens and earth with their own powers. If one cultivated to the highest level, he would have the power to destroy the heavens and earth, to shift the stars and overturn the sea. This power was something that even nuclear weapons could not compare to.
However, that level was still too far away from the current Jaidon.
After fiddling with quite a few interesting things along the way, Jaidon finally arrived at his destination—the Violet Royal Auction House!
Outside the auction house, there was a beautiful violet orchid. This was the totem of the Violet Royal Auction House, exuding a noble and elegant aura.
Although it was an auction house, it was selling all sorts of items. Jaidon had set his sights on the medicinal herb section.
In the common herb section—
Jaidon swept his gaze over them. They were all spiritual herbs that did not even have a grade or any spiritual energy.
He shook his head. These things were great nourishment for ordinary people, but they were dispensable for martial artists.
Jaidon’s eyes lit up as he gazed at the spiritual herb area.
“Low-Grade Level-one Green-purple Orchid, Low-Grade Level-one Twin Life Grass, Low-Grade Level-one Bitter Lotus.”
It was a dazzling lineup.
“There actually are high-grade spiritual herbs—Dragon Root, Green-spotted Tongue, and Golden Age Herb.”
In the depths of the counter, there were even three Level-two spiritual herbs. Although the names were written on them, Jaidon’s memory from the Alchemist Apprentice badge did not contain any relevant knowledge.
It seemed like this Violet Royal Auction House had a strong backing. If there was no power behind it, they would have been robbed clean long ago.
“It seems that Mister is also an expert. Our Violet Royal Auction House’s spiritual medicines are definitely worth a lot. What do you need?”
A staff member wearing the Violet Royal Auction House uniform smiled as he introduced the items to Jaidon.
Jaidon pondered for a moment. In the records of this Alchemist Apprentice badge, there was a type of medicinal liquid that could not only help a Battle Apprentice stabilize their foundational skills, but could also greatly increase their capability. It was the most cost-effective item.
“I want…”
Just as Jaidon opened his mouth to speak, a voice that caused his body to involuntarily detest rang out.
“Oh, isn’t this Booker family’s Master Jaidon?”
“What brings you here today?”
A folded fan hit on Jaidon’s shoulder and a voice rang out.
“Master, it is that trash, Jaidon. Hehe.” His lackey also chimed in as he cast a provoking glance at Jaidon.
The owner of the fan wasn’t very good-looking, and the amount of powder on his face almost made Jaidon vomit. It was too disgusting.
It was neither red nor white and he looked like a zombie. However, he had a confident smile on his face.
Jaidon really did not know who gave him the courage.
The youth slowly swayed beside Jaidon and patted his lackey’s head with his fan. He said, “How can you say Brother Jaidon is trash? Although Brother Jaidon’s cultivation has been crippled, he has been chased out of the Heavenly Sword Sect, his position as Master has been removed, and he was beaten up daily, Brother Jaidon still has the face to live. This is already much better than other trash..”
