A few moments later, the plane landed at the airport.
On the tarmac, the staff of the Pill King Hall and a convoy of cars were already waiting there.
Everything in front of them was actually no different from the secular world.
In fact, over the past year or so, not only had the secular world been influenced by the culture of the True Martial World, but the True Martial World had likewise been changed by the True Martial World.
The opening of the Heavenly Gate has had a mutual impact on both realms.
After leaving the airport, Li Nan and the others took a car directly towards the direction of the Pill King Hall branch.
The True Martial Realm was divided into four states, the southeast and northwest, and where Li Nan was now, was the southern state!
And the branch of the Pill King Hall was located in QI Huang City in the Southern Prefecture!
It had to be said that Lu Jianghai and the others had put in a lot of effort to choose the location of their branch.
It took them a long time to find out that QI Huang City was the largest and most important centre for the trading of medicinal herbs and medicine in the entire Southern Prefecture.
It was precisely for this reason that Lu Jianghai had chosen this location for the branch of the Pill King Hall!
In addition, there was another advantage to this QI Huang City.
That was, QI Huang City was not too far from the two airports, just less than two hours’ drive away, so it was still very convenient to travel.
A few moments later, Li Nan entered QI Huang City directly.
As soon as they entered the city, Li Nan was surprised by the sight in front of him.
He saw that there were medicine shops and medical halls almost everywhere in QI Huang City, almost one after another, and they were all doing a good business.
It seemed that Lu Jianghai really wasn’t lying when he said earlier that this place was the medical trade centre of the entire southern state.
Seemingly noticing Li Nan’s surprise, Lu Jianghai also said, “Young Master Nan, I have specifically investigated, this Qixiang City produces medicinal herbs to have finished medicines every year, occupying more than seventy percent of the entire Southern Prefecture!”
“Seventy percent!?”
Li Nan was stunned.
Such a proportion was indeed already very terrifying!
“Not only that, there are countless famous doctors in this entire Qihuang City, almost all of the medical masters and national medical sages in the entire Southern Prefecture all come from this Qihuang City! Not only in Southern Prefecture, but also in the other three states, many of the royal doctors also come from the medical families of QI Huang City. It can be said that this QI Huang City almost occupies half of the True Martial World’s medical landscape!”
Lu Jianghai looked very excited.
Li Nan nodded, likewise deeply convinced.
A few moments later, the caravan finally stopped in front of a quaint facade.
“Young Master Nan, we’ve arrived!”
Lu Jianghai opened the car door for Li Nan.
As soon as Li Nan stepped out of the car, dozens of division heads in front of him simultaneously bowed towards Li Nan.
“Greetings, Mr. Pill King!”
Li Nan raised his eyes and saw that the branch in front of him looked very grand and covered an enormous area, almost like a small palace.
In fact, when Lu Jianghai had originally plopped this shop down, he had spent a great deal of money on it.
With the size of this shop today, it is one of the best in the whole of Qihuang City!
Because of this, there were many people who came here today to see what was going on.
After all, they all wanted to see what this newly-opened shop was all about.
Moreover, the most crucial thing was that the crowd had also heard that this Pill King Hall was opened by someone from the secular world.
This was the only one of its kind in the entire QI Huang City.
This made everyone curious.
A few moments later, the ribbon-cutting ceremony officially began.
Thousands of people had already gathered around the shop, making it seem lively.
There was no doubt that the opening of the Pill King Hall branch today was definitely considered to be the focus of the entire QI Huang City.
“Welcome all of you to the opening ceremony of our Pill King Hall. Let me introduce to you all, this is the big boss of our Pill King Hall, Mr. Pill King!”
Lu Jianghai pointed to Li Nan at the side, immediately attracting a burst of attention from the crowd.
Afterwards, Lu Jianghai continued, “Our Pill King Hall is one of the top three brands in the world in the secular world, and thanks to Mr. Pill King’s pharmaceutical strength, the pills produced by our Pill King Hall all have powerful effects that ordinary pills can hardly match! Most importantly, our Pill King Hall’s pills are also extremely helpful in raising a martial artist’s cultivation to a new level in a short period of time! If you all have a need for this, you can try it out later.”
The moment these words were spoken, they immediately caused the crowd to erupt.
This was because although these people were all insiders in the pharmaceutical industry, they all knew very well that up until now, no one in the entire QI Huang City dared to claim that their medicines could raise their cultivation to a new level in a short period of time!
This was simply an upheaval to the entire industry!
Seeing the crowd’s reaction, the corners of Lu Jianghai’s mouth also revealed a slight smile.
Lu Jianghai was still relatively satisfied with the crowd’s reaction.
After all, their Pill King Hall was still a new brand in the True Martial World, it just needed to create some topics to be able to establish their brand.
At least now, Pill King Hall had managed to arouse everyone’s curiosity.
And it was at this moment.
“Hey, you guys are saying that your pills can raise a martial artist’s cultivation in a short period of time? It can’t be that you’re just talking nonsense, right?”
A black-faced burly man snickered and said.
The crowd originally had doubts about Lu Jianghai’s words as well.
At this moment, once this black-faced strong man took the lead, everyone else also raised their doubts.
“That’s right, I’ve never heard of anyone being able to raise their cultivation in a short period of time by relying on pills!”
“These people from the secular world must not be very reliable! It’s not like they’re frauds!”
“I think they’re just talking nonsense! Don’t ever tarnish the reputation of our Qihuang City!”
There was a flurry of chatter from the crowd.
Hearing these murmurs, Lu Jianghai was immediately a little anxious.
He also didn’t expect to encounter this kind of situation.
The most important thing about opening a pharmacy was its reputation.
Now that this was just the beginning and he had been branded as a fraud, this was not good for the future development of Pill King Hall.
“Gentlemen, you should not misunderstand, what I said is true. Our Pill King Hall’s pills are very popular and effective over in the secular world, otherwise, our Pill King Hall wouldn’t have developed so well, these are all things that are well known in the secular world!”
Lu Jianghai explained.
“Alright, stop explaining, we in the True Martial World have been practicing martial arts since we were young, we are not as easy to fool as those mortals in the mundane world!”
The big black-faced man from before said with disdain.
“That’s right, we’re not easy to fool!”
“We’re not that gullible!”
The others all followed suit and echoed.
Seeing this scene, Lu Jianghai was immediately embarrassed and did not know how to explain.
At this moment, Lai Nan who was at the side, however, spoke up unhurriedly, “Actually, it’s very simple to prove whether our pills are effective.”
After that, Li Nan then looked at the big black-faced man and continued, “Just let this brother try it out, won’t you know.”
“What? Me?”
The big black-faced man was stunned.
“That’s right, if I’m right, your cultivation level today is just at the peak of internal energy, right?”
Saying that, Li Nan casually took a bottle of elixir from the shelf behind him and poured one out.
“Take this elixir, and I guarantee that your cultivation will break through to the Realm of Transformation and become a Patriarch!”
Li Nan said with great certainty.
“What?!”
The crowd around them completely exploded.
A single elixir to create a Patriarch?
This was too exaggerated!
That big black-faced man also looked very excited.
Although he had always cultivated martial arts, his qualifications were too mediocre, so for so many years, his cultivation level had always been stuck at the peak of Neijin, completely unable to break through, and he had even given up on it himself.
But now, after hearing Li Nan’s words, it had rekindled his hope!
“I’m trying it out, but what if it doesn’t work after eating it?”
The big black-faced man asked.
Li Nan smiled faintly, “If it doesn’t work after eating it, I’m willing to pay you 10 million True Martial Gold!”
“What?! 10 million?!”
The surrounding crowd was on the verge of going crazy with excitement when they heard these words.
Ten million True Martial Gold!
This was simply an astronomical amount for them, ordinary people!
When that big black-faced man heard this, his entire body was also so excited that he couldn’t speak.
He was originally just an ordinary labourer, and even if he worked his whole life, he would never be able to earn such a large amount of money.
Now, he could earn so much just by taking a single pill, this was simply a great blessing.
Not to mention an elixir that could help him improve his cultivation, even if it was poison, this was something he should f*cking eat!
“Okay, I’ll eat it! You have to keep your word!”
With these words, the black-faced man swallowed the pill without hesitation.
When the surrounding crowd saw this scene, they were all envious for a while.
In their opinion, they had simply missed a great opportunity to make a fortune.
After the big black-faced man ate the elixir, he could not help but snort out a laugh when he saw that he had not undergone any changes.
“Hahahaha, no effect! It really is ineffective! Ten million! 10 million is mine now! Hahahaha …… poof ……”
The big black-faced man was still laughing in triumph, longing for his ten million dollars.
Only, before he could laugh twice, a large mouthful of blood actually spurted out directly from his mouth!
“Crap ……”
The big black-faced man’s eyes widened in shock, and then, the whole man fell head first directly face first into the ground.
“Oh my god!”
“A dead man! The Pill King Hall’s elixir has eaten a dead man!”
“Liar! The people of the Pill King Hall are really all liars!”
The crowd was suddenly thrown into a state of confusion.
But at this moment.
The body of the big black-faced man on the ground moved violently again, startling the surrounding crowd into backing away, simply thinking that it was about to swindle.
Only after a few moments did the black-faced man slowly rise from the ground.
At this moment, when the crowd looked at the big black-faced man again, they were all completely stunned.
The aura on the black-faced man’s body was several times more powerful than it had been a moment ago!
Transformation Realm Patriarch!
A single pill from this Pill King Hall was actually able to create a Patriarch!
