Chapter 74 Rejuvenating Purple Pill
"Dongyang Kingdom? Why not send someone to search for it? We should take it down no matter the cost." Ye Feng knew about Dongyang Kingdom. In the early to mid-game, players were active in the three kingdoms of Tianxing, Dongyang, and Yinyue. However, from the game's perspective, these three kingdoms seemed to be in conflict.

It seems there should be an adversarial relationship here, Ye Feng judged. However, Ye Feng still felt that even if there was an adversarial relationship, acquiring a pill in Dongyang should not be too difficult.

"Brother Ye, you may not know this, but Dongyang Kingdom and my Tianxing Kingdom are enemies." Just as Ye Feng expected, Bei Yan brought up this issue as soon as he opened his mouth. "It's not just Dongyang Kingdom and Tianxing Kingdom that are enemies. In fact, on this continent, the three countries of Dongyang, Tianxing and Yinyue are enemies. Wars between the three countries are frequent, but interactions between them are very rare."

"So what? This kind of relationship shouldn't have anything to do with us buying a pill, right?" Although Bei Yan said this, Ye Feng still didn't understand why buying a pill would be so difficult.

"Brother Ye, you may not know this, but the Rejuvenating Purple Pill is said to be a rare and precious medicinal herb in Dongyang. It is said that only a major sect in Dongyang can refine it." Bei Yan noticed Ye Feng's doubts and was surprised that Ye Feng was unaware of this. Due to the relationship between the two countries, Bei Yan also knew very little about the Rejuvenating Purple Pill.

After coughing, Bei Yan looked at Ye Feng's puzzled expression and felt it was necessary to explain the situation. He paused for a moment and continued, "The relationship between our Tianxing and the three kingdoms of Dongyang and Yinyue is very tense. If it weren't for the fact that the three kingdoms are in a tripartite balance of power, preventing two of them from making any rash moves, and if it weren't for the fact that the strength of the three kingdoms is roughly equal, then one of them would probably have been destroyed long ago."

Ye Feng could imagine this situation, after all, the history of his previous life had also seen a situation of three kingdoms vying for power. Seeing that Ye Feng understood this situation, Bei Yan continued, "The warriors of our Tianxing Kingdom are spiritual cultivators, and they mainly use spiritual power, while the Yinyue Kingdom cultivates spiritual power, and as for the Dongyang Kingdom, they cultivate soul power."

“Although the methods of cultivating power are different, the final effect of the power transformation is still similar,” Bei Yan explained. “However, the different methods of cultivation also have some differences in some details. This means that if you don’t deliberately hide it, or if you use power, others can tell whether you are a spiritual cultivator or cultivate other powers.”

"Oh, I see. What does the difference in cultivation methods have to do with this Rejuvenating Purple Pill?" Ye Feng asked. He wasn't too concerned about the difference in cultivation methods, since he didn't understand any of the three types of power and had no need to cultivate them. What he wanted to know now was whether he could actually get his hands on the Rejuvenating Purple Pill.

"That's precisely why it's such a big problem," Bei Yan said in a deep voice. "Our three kingdoms have always been hostile to each other, not just between nations, but also among individuals due to years of conflict. Imagine, in such a situation, a cultivator from the Tianxing Kingdom appears in Dongyang. What would happen? Once their identity is exposed, they would definitely be surrounded and killed. The Rejuvenating Purple Pill we need is said to be refined by a major sect in Dongyang. Such a sect would definitely check the identity of every disciple. Differences in cultivation methods are the easiest to spot, making it impossible for them to infiltrate and obtain the Rejuvenating Purple Pill."

"Since we can't sneak in, we can buy it from Dongyang Kingdom at a high price," Ye Feng said doubtfully. It's just a pill; is it really necessary to go through all this trouble, even infiltrating a sect to steal it? "That's probably impossible. Due to the long-standing conflict between the three kingdoms, trade between them has almost completely ceased. Moreover, the Rejuvenating Purple Pill is said to be a rare find even in Dongyang Kingdom, making it even less likely to fall into our hands," Bei Yan sighed.

"This..." Ye Feng was speechless upon hearing this news. In Ye Feng's mind, money could make the devil turn the millstone. In his world, even if there was deep hatred between two countries, it would not affect their trade. As long as there was money to be made, there would be merchants who would do business. A product of a country that had launched a war against other countries would still sell well in its own country. Ye Feng, who lived in such an era, could not understand how terrible it was that there was no trade between countries here.

"That means the only way to obtain the Rejuvenating Purple Pill is to go to Dongyang Kingdom." Ye Feng thought for a moment. Although it was very dangerous for Bei Yan and the others to enter Dongyang because of their different powers, Ye Feng was different. The power Ye Feng cultivated did not belong to any of these three powers.

Furthermore, Bei Yan hadn't detected that he wasn't cultivating spiritual power, so even if he went to Dongyang Kingdom, he might not be discovered to be using a different power. Ye Feng thought about it carefully and felt that this was very likely. Given that there was no other way to treat Bei Linhan's injuries, Ye Feng didn't mind taking the risk. Even if he encountered danger, with Gui Liao in hand and his many skills, Ye Feng was confident that he could escape back.

"No, Brother Ye, although your strength and talent are quite good, your cultivation time is still too short. There are many old monsters in this world who have cultivated for hundreds of years. Although their talent is not as good as yours, once they reach the Spirit Form Warrior level, they have a lifespan of several hundred years. Over these several hundred years, some are lucky enough to reach the Spirit God realm, and even those who haven't reached the Spirit God realm are not far from it. Facing such opponents, Brother Ye is definitely no match. It's better not to take the risk." Bei Yan saw that Ye Feng intended to go to Dongyang Kingdom. Although Bei Yan was also very interested in the Rejuvenating Purple Pill, he still tried to stop him. After all, in Bei Yan's opinion, this trip would definitely be fraught with danger. Not only would Bei Linhan be unable to be saved, but Ye Feng would also definitely lose everything.

Ye Feng knew what Bei Yan was worried about, but with a clearer understanding, Ye Feng became bolder. Thinking of Bei Linhan, Ye Feng felt more and more that he had to go.

Despite Bei Yan's attempts to dissuade him, Ye Feng shook his head and said, "My mind is made up. Let me prepare, and we'll set off in the next few days." Thinking that Bei Linhan's injuries might worsen, Ye Feng didn't want to delay any longer and planned to depart in the next few days.

Seeing Ye Feng's determination and confidence, Bei Yan, with his sharp eyes, quickly deduced that Ye Feng must have some method he wasn't telling. Although Bei Yan didn't know if Ye Feng's scheme was reliable, he didn't press the matter since Ye Feng wasn't going to say anything. Under these circumstances, Bei Yan naturally couldn't stop him any longer, so he sighed and stopped trying to dissuade him. Instead, he took the initiative to tell Ye Feng the limited information he had about Dongyang.
