Roughly 15 minutes passed from the moment Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu first struck with the sword light that severed the Buddha’s palm until the second strike when they cleaved through Hinnyo’s Spiritual Body.0

In such a brief span, the two unleashed the might of their twin sword union twice in succession. The cost to their strength was also beyond measure.0

Zhang Yuelu’s face was as pale as snow even though she had already consumed three Mystical Purple Pills.0

Back then, Qi Xuansu once bought Jade Liquor priced at 1,500 Taiping coins per bottle. Even with internal discounts, it still cost him 1,000 Taiping coins. The Mystical Purple Pill was just as expensive as the Jade Liquor, and its main function was to rapidly restore true essence in a short span. That meant Zhang Yuelu had burned through nearly 5,000 Taiping coins’ worth of pills in just those 15 minutes.0

Of course, these pills were supplied by the Huasheng Hall branch and paid for by the Duzhi Hall....0
