This Peach of Immortality from the garden of the Queen Mother of the West was not much different from a regular peach pit; it was just slightly bigger in size. Nevertheless, Christopher knew that it was a valuable item. After going out on the balcony, he planted the peach pit. When he planted the seed of The Unresting Mountain Ginseng at the time, the memory of the seed germinating and growing was still clear in his mind. He also hoped that this peach pit could flower and bear fruit soon to produce the Peach of Immortality. Wishes were a good thing. Reality, however, left him disappointed. Almost half an hour had passed since he planted the peach pit, but it still hadn’t grown into a seedling, much less started to flower and bear fruit. “Do I have to water it?” he murmured to himself. Even though he found watering the Peach of Immortality from the Peach of Immortality Garden with tap water to be unreasonable, he still gave it a try. The gray soil was completely soaked now, but there was still no movement.It doesn’t work! he thought. I guess mythical things can only be planted in the Mythical World! Ding! Just as he was about to give up, the automated alert tone rang in his mind. “Here’s a reminder that mythical energy in the mortal realm is deficient. There isn’t enough to provide the Peach of Immortality with the life force it needs to grow. If the Host would like to plant the Peach of Immortality, please provide the sufficient amount of life force.” Life force? He was rendered speechless once more. What is that? He was going to dig up the Peach of Immortality when his hand froze all of a sudden. Sprinting back to his room, he took out the Hippocrates Soup’s dishwater that he had been keeping for a while now. F*ck! How did I forget about this? It’s the energy of life! I have the Hippocrates Soup that brings the dead back to life. Turning the cap of the mineral water bottle, he poured the dishwater over the peach pit. It’s working! It’s working! As soon as he poured the dishwater, a light-green seedling emerged from the soil. That wasn’t the end of it.The more dishwater he poured, the stronger the green seedling grew. After he poured out close to half of the dishwater, leaves grew out of the seedling, like mushrooms after a rain. Not long after, a Peach of Immortality fruit which exuded a rich aroma appeared within Christopher’s field of vision. The dishwater in the mineral water bottle was decreasing, but the Peach of Immortality was growing bigger. Since there was a limit to the amount of life force, the peach tree only produced that single Peach of Immortality fruit. The 500 milliliter of dishwater quickly ran out. At the same time, the lush and green Peach of Immortality tree started to shrivel up at a fast rate. It shriveled up so quickly that the entire tree was about to wither away in the blink of an eye. Watching the situation unfold, Christopher immediately plucked the only Peach of Immortality fruit off the tree. Like burned charcoal, the Peach of Immortality tree withered and fell. He could even hear the crackling sound of the trunk that indicated an insufficiency of water as it snapped. Fortunately, his quick reflexes allowed him to pluck the fruit before it potentially withered away with the tree. The fruit looked about the same as the one in ‘Journey to the West’. This Peach of Immortality was huge and fragrant. Even just a whiff of the aroma it produced made Christopher feel rejuvenated. Weighing the fruit in his hand, he thought, Now that I have the mythical ingredient, Peach of Immortality, it’s time to make the Bone Broth Detox Soup. With the experience he had from making the Hippocrates Soup last time, he was able to do this with ease now. First, he washed the peach clean, then he cut it open with a knife and placed it properly. Next, he used his mind to produce an Infinite Karmic Flame on the palm of his hand. He even specially kept the peach pit of this Peach of Immortality. Even though he did not have the Hippocrates Soup’s dishwater anymore and wouldn’t be able to plant the Peach of Immortality now, he might have a chance to in the future. Since it was valuable, it was better to just keep it in possession for now. Initially, he was worried that his Fire Skill was still too low, and the amount of time he could maintain the Infinite Karmic Flame might be too short, hence inhibiting him from making the Bone Broth Detox Soup. In just a few short minutes, however, a bowl of lustrous and rich Bone Broth Detox Soup appeared before his eyes. Even though the soup was made, it didn’t have an aroma, which he found odd. “Did I make a mistake in the process?” If that were the case, then it would be a disaster. “Argh. I don’t care anymore!” With a frown, he drank the bowl of Bone Broth Detox Soup. Besides not having any scent, it didn’t have much of a taste either. He felt like he was drinking a bowl of plain water; it didn’t feel like anything. “Improve natural dispositions? A product people would kill for? That’s not very scientific!” He felt like he had gotten deceived by the introduction of the Bone Broth Detox Soup. When he had that thought in mind, suddenly, he felt a burning sensation in every part of his body. This burning sensation was not apparent at the start, but it eventually got so strong that it became impossible to bear. He felt like he was being burned in an alchemy furnace. He turned on the air-conditioner and set the temperature to the lowest, but it was useless. The heat was coming from inside of him. Lowering his temperature on the outside did not alleviate his pain one bit. At the moment, he was lying on the ground and panting profusely. His clothes were completely soaked with sweat, and it looked like he had just been pulled out of the water. Suddenly, a stench reached his nose. Lowering his head, he realized that his skin had been covered with a layer of black dirt at some point. The more he sweated, the more the black dirt formed. His many years of experience in reading fantasy novels told him that the black dirt was the accumulation of toxins inside his body from the various foods he ate over the twenty something years of his life. “I guess there was nothing wrong with the Bone Broth Detox Soup.” Fifteen minutes later, the burning sensation finally went away. On the other hand, he smelled really bad. The first thing he did was run to the water dispenser and drink a large cup of water to replenish the water he had lost from sweating, then he ran off to the bathroom. “How refreshing!” After washing off all the dirt on his body, he felt rejuvenated in an instant.On top of that, he also felt like his vision, sense of hearing, taste, smell, and touch had improved tremendously. Looking outside his window, he could even see the lines on leaves of trees over hundreds of meters away. Not only did his senses get sharper, he also felt like his strength had increased by several folds. He felt even more powerful than after he ate the Strength Bun. Looking at an uncovered nail on the wall, he easily pulled it out with just a bit of force. “Sh*t! Did I transform into Superman?” He looked at his hands in disbelief. At the moment, he felt like he could even knock down those special forces soldiers in urban fiction novels with one punch. “As expected from the Bone Broth Detox Soup that can only be made with mythical ingredients,” he marveled. After he finished showering and changed into new clothes, the world felt like a different place. After improving his natural dispositions, not only did his body undergo a major change, his mind also became extraordinarily quick, especially in terms of alertness. Probably because he was too excited, he didn’t sleep throughout the night, but he was still on his toes.
