Chapter 1335 - New Products (1/2)

There was also a potion that could instantly refill mana. However, the effect of the potion was unremarkable, and it was surprisingly expensive. It could only be used by High Mages or those who were weaker. For the Archmages, the tiny bit of mana that the potion provided could only allow them to cast a normal spell…

The Blue Demon Potion that Lin Yun just made would be the most popular potion for mana replenishment in the next 10,000 years. It wouldn’t be obsolete even in Noscent’s heyday, when there were better potions for instantaneous mana replenishment, because it was affordable, and had many customers.

The average-quality Blue Demon Potion could fill a level-5 Archmage with mana in three seconds. The best-quality Blue Demon Potion could even let a level-9 Archmage regain at least 50 percent of their mana instantly, and be fully charged in only a couple of seconds.

Even the normal Heaven Rank experts would use the Blue Demon Potion too. The mana that a bottle of Blue Demon Potion offered could let them cast one or two normal level-9 spells.

The top Blue Demon Potion made of the best materials could reach the Heaven Rank in quality. It was the most commonly used potion for the Heaven Rank experts to replenish their mana. Its recovery speed was almost as good as that in a Demiplane.

The potion was necessary for every mage. In a fierce battle, a bottle of Blue Demon Potion might change the outcome. If two mages that were as strong as each other both ran out of mana, and one of them was able to refill all the mana in a couple of seconds, then the result of the battle would be obvious.

After the Blue Demon Potion was invented, battles would be much fiercer. As long as the mages controlled the speed of mana usage, they could fight crazily for a long time with the help of the Blue Demon Potion.

One of the important reasons why the mages in this era were much weaker than those in the heyday was the exhaustion of mana. Many Archmages hadn’t fought in years or even decades. It would be a miracle if they were good at fighting.

According to the records in the decaying library, in Noscent’s heyday, every Heaven Rank expert would fight more than 80 times a year on average, and every Archmage would fight more than 160 times, meaning that they would often fight once every two days.

The conquest and colonization of planes and the competitions in the boundless void would make all the mages in that era go through a lot of battles.

That would be the direct result of potion development. In that era, the effects of all potions would be maximized. Countless new materials would be found in the colonized planes. Alchemy would be changing and progressing on a daily basis.

Thanks to the new potions, the mages wouldn’t worry about exhaustion of mana, so they would fight more and gain more experience, which would make them stronger. Magic progressed too under such circumstances.

With the Blue Demon Potion, the Gilded Rose wouldn’t have to worry about profit for a long time, because the potion was expendable, and a tremendous number of mages would need it all the time.

Besides the Blue Demon Potion, there was another potion called Luminosity Potion, which could directly improve a mage’s strength. Until a mage became an Archmage, or a level-5 Archmage, their main problem was the accumulation of mana, which was time-consuming. They had to spend a lot of time on mediation to improve their mana capacity.

The Magic Apprentices, Mages, and Great Mages spent more than 80% of their time on meditation. The Luminosity Potion was a potion that could shorten that time.

After they took the Luminosity Potion, their mana capacity would rise crazily in one day. Considering the average efficiency of meditation, the potion equaled to three months of meditation. Although the potion would be ineffective after it was taken more than three times, it could still improve the efficiency of meditation and shorten its time, which was more important.

After one took the Luminosity Potion, one’s efficiency at meditation would be improved at least three times in the following month. Even though the direct effect of the potion would be gone as it was taken often, its efficiency improvement could last two months.

Also, during the process, the duration of meditation would be lengthened too. The low-level mages’ souls were too weak, so they had a time limit to meditation every day. If they surpassed the limit, their meditation efficiency would plummet.

With the Luminosity Potion, the mages could accumulate mana six to seven times faster than before, not counting the direct improvement of mana capacity brought forth by the Luminosity Potion.

Back in the Andlusa Kingdom, the Gilded Rose had released the Hope Potion, which was designed for Magic Apprentices, and could save their time in mana accumulation. It could improve a Magic Apprentice to become a level-9 Magic Apprentice.

Unfortunately, although the potion was groundbreaking, and had a huge market, only some mage families bought it. It was so expensive that only families which weren’t short of purple gold would purchase it for the young geniuses of their families so that they wouldn’t need to waste time on mana accumulation in the apprentice phase.

In the end, only very few people bought the potion. For the official Mages, the Hope Potion was useless. But the Luminosity Potion was different. It was usable even for the Archmages!

Although it couldn’t upgrade them by a couple of levels as it would’ve upgraded lower level mages, it could still improve their meditation efficiency.

It was not hard to imagine that after the Luminosity Potion was released, it would be as in demand as the Blue Demon Potion in the coming hundreds of years.

There was nothing to worry about even though the potions were analyzed and decomposed. Their materials were mostly from the monster plane, which was the only place where the materials could contain so much mana. The huge storage of mana was the key to the potions’ effect.

Even if other alchemists were to duplicate the potions, the counterfeits wouldn’t be nearly as effective. If the cost was the same, the counterfeits wouldn’t be one-tenth as effective as the real potions. Even if they didn’t care about the cost, the counterfeits would only be half as effective, and the cost might be a dozen times higher than the retail price of Gilded Rose’s potions.

After the two potions were released, as time went by, Noscent would be strengthened in general in a couple of decades, and the age of plane colonization would be advanced…

To build a Shelter Tower, too many materials were required, and all of them were rare. Some special materials could only be made by certain species with their talents.

Those materials and species would be mostly discovered in the age of colonization. It was difficult for anyone to accomplish that on their own. So, if the overall power of Noscent was improved, and the age of colonization came sooner, the materials would appear sooner, and could be bought with purple gold.

Essentially, everybody else would be collecting materials for Lin Yun. All Lin Yun needed to do was to buy things he needed from them with the money he earned from them. He wouldn’t need to care about the details or the cost at all.

That was also one of the reasons why Lin Yun made the two potions. After he created the potions, he taught the relevant methods to his subordinate alchemists. It would be their duty to manufacture the potions. He wouldn’t need to care about anything else. His alchemist team would take care of everything.
