"A life-saving item?" Li Yuan looked at the box in President Li's hand.

At first glance, it looked no different from an ordinary wooden box.

Clang~ Li Yang opened the wooden box.

Immediately, a strange fragrance wafted from the box, and a crystal clear, purple elixir appeared in front of Li Yuan.

It was very small, only the size of a pinky finger, but the strange fragrance alone involuntarily stirred up the desire to swallow it.

"Teacher, what is this?" Li Yuan couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

"Its official name is 'Prime Purple Life-Prolonging Elixir,' implying that with it, it's as if you have an extra life," Li Yang said as he looked at the elixir in the box, with a hint of emotion, "However, we Prime Warriors are used to calling it 'Life-Saving Pill.'"

"Its efficacy is very simple."

"Once you are gravely injured, even if your organs are shattered, as long as you consume it within a very short time, you'll quickly recover," Li Yang said softly, "Of course, the head is a fatal weakness and cannot be harmed."

"Aside from the head, everything else can be recovered, including the heart."

"Even heart damage can be healed?" Li Yuan listened in amazement, looking at the purple elixir.

What kind of medicine was this?

"It has three flaws," Li Yang said, "The first is that its medicinal power is limited, it's not much use to a Flying Heaven Warrior, and only works on those below that level."

Li Yuan listened on.

This was not surprising; if it were effective for Flying Heaven Warriors, it would definitely be a true divine elixir.

"The second is scarcity; it's extremely rare, many Prime Warriors may have never even heard of it," Li Yang looked at Li Yuan, "I'm not very clear on the method of its production, but it's not for sale, and you'd have a hard time finding it through normal purchasing channels."

Li Yuan nodded in agreement, indeed, his access to information in the Starfire Martial Hall was not bad.

But he had never heard of it.

"The third, it heals injuries but cannot detoxify," Li Yang said seriously, "So, if you encounter some of the Alien Races with deadly poisons, you must be careful."

"The Star Realm is vast, with many common poisons, and it's easy to fall victim if one is not careful."

"Understood." Li Yuan nodded, Poison?

Teacher Xu Bo, he died because of the poisons in the Star Realm.

Uncle Li Changzhou, too, almost died from the poisons of the Star Realm... In fact, every year a large number of ordinary people and Martial Artists die from poisoning in the Star Realm.

It can't be helped, with so many realms and contact with various Foreign Civilizations, there are myriad poisons, impossible to fully guard against.

"Put it away," Li Yang said, "Remember, its fragrance is very special, easily detectable by the keen Perception Ability of a Prime Warrior, so it's best to hide it in the 'Origin Power Battle Suit' Inner Layer, to be completely sealed off."

"When you need to use it, just bring it out from the Battle Garment with a thought," Li Yang explained the method of use to Li Yuan.

"Yes." Li Yuan nodded, reaching into the box to take out the Prime Purple Life-Prolonging Elixir.

Hum~

A streak of black light seeped from Li Yuan's palm, rolling up the Prime Purple Life-Prolonging Elixir like liquid, as it disappeared from sight.

The fragrance that lingered in the air around rapidly dissipated.

"Good," Li Yang nodded, "That's the first matter, the second is about your advancement in skill to the Fifth Stage."

"You too."

"Last time, when your skill reached the High Rank of the Fourth Level, you didn't inform me, your teacher, immediately, and this time is the same," Li Yang said with a hint of helplessness, "Do you look down on me, your teacher, that much? I always have to hear it from someone else."

"Teacher, I'm sorry," Li Yuan immediately admitted his fault.

But Li Yuan also felt helpless in his heart; each time he had just broken through.

"Your quick advancement is not only beyond my expectations but probably exceeds everyone else's predictions for you," Li Yang said with a laugh, "Just the speed of your progress from the Fourth to the Fifth Stage is a bit faster than Fang Hai's was."

"A bit faster?" Li Yuan paused.

The time it took from his Fourth to Fifth Stage was less than half of Fang Hai's.

"You think I'm wrong?" Li Yang said with a smile, "Yes, in terms of time, you're much faster, but you have to understand one thing, your Physical Quality has surpassed level 15, and your spiritual power has long been comparable to that of a Prime Warrior."

"When Fang Hai broke through to the Fifth Stage, he was only 16 years old, and his Physical Quality was only level 8." Li Yang said with emotion, "He was not a talent with spiritual power."

"Level 8?" Li Yuan understood Li Yang's point.

Comprehension, spiritual power, and temperament all complement each other.

Temperament is the most difficult to understand, so let's not talk about that for now.

Comprehension is the most mysterious, related to a person's soul essence, postnatal experiences, and many other aspects.

But spiritual power can be quantified.

An increase in spiritual power speeds up a person's thought process, calculation ability, and Perception Ability, among others.

Simply put, in Martial Arts Cultivation, spiritual power is a 'magnifier' for a person's talent for comprehension; it's fundamental.

If a person's Physical Quality and spiritual power are both only at level 5, then, no matter how high his talent for comprehension might be, his skill cannot possibly reach the Fifth Stage.

It's like a great chef who can't cook a feast without ingredients.

Conversely, even if a person has low comprehension, but has a spiritual power of level 29, with gradual practice, advancing to the Fourth Stage wouldn't be too difficult.

Fang Hai, with a Physical Quality of level 8, must have had just average spiritual power, yet his skill reached the Fifth Stage.

The height of his comprehension can be seen.

That's why he caused such a sensation back then.

"Of course, your spiritual power is also your talent," Li Yang said with a smile, "Taking everything into account, the current you is already very close to Fang Hai back in the day."

"Xia Country has listed you as a genius of the same level as Yu Jinghe."

"Below the ranks of the Flying Heaven Warriors, you two are the most highly regarded by the upper echelons of Xia Country," Li Yang said with emotion.
