Ye Zhongming took out the semi-finished Fuleira potion that Sister Hong had created back on Earth, which could enhance one's own Fuleira.
At that time, this drug had significant side effects due to its high uncertainty, so it was not used widely—only in laboratories and on certain experimental subjects.
Now, in the universe, due to demand, Liu Zhenghong naturally wouldn't give up on researching this drug. After acquiring some moss, she even made improvements by integrating certain elements extracted from the moss, enhancing the potion's effectiveness in increasing Fuleira.
However, the issue of side effects could not be ignored. Compared to the drugs from the Earth era, the side effects not only remained significant but had increased.
Previously, there were only some random side effects that were not too lethal. But now, the side effects were much more severe.
It's worth noting that due to the differences in life forms, the side effects of taking this drug varied. It's not that different life forms had distinct side effects, but rather, the manifestations of side effects were evidently different among some powerful individuals.
For instance, a newly evolved nine-star human evolver who took this improved Fuleira potion that integrated the moss would immediately suffer from a side effect: their body would become increasingly emaciated. Although Fuleira was enhanced, their life was rapidly depleting, leading to a quick death.
In contrast, if a similarly powerful mutated life form took the potion, the life depletion process would be much slower. While the human might last a few months, they could potentially last half a year.
Or to give another example, two humans took the potion—one with two hundred Fuleira and the other with two thousand. The former would experience significantly greater side effects than the latter. Of course, the amount of Fuleira gained by both parties would also differ, with the former gaining more.
Among various life forms, the Dragon Race clearly possesses a very robust physique. To put it simply, they have strong resistance and durability.
When Yangos attempted to take that kind of potion, the side effects were not as pronounced. Now, after the improvements, it's reasonable to think that this race would suffer less bodily harm than others upon taking it.
Xuanyan, being a peak giant dragon, has an even stronger physique. For it, even a small bottle of Fuleira potion, despite being a product of the second trial, might render side effects negligible.
This substance truly excited Xuanyan. This was evident from its body, which might have been swaying slightly without it even noticing.
Meanwhile, Red Boy, despite being injured, struggled to stand and leaned over to see if Ye Zhongming still had that small bottle in hand.
The desire for Fuleira is a basic instinct of life, but Ye Zhongming always felt that the excitement of these dragons was a bit excessive.
Xuanyan is a peak giant dragon. For one at this level, how much could that potion increase its Fuleira? One point? Or two points? Could it truly be happy about gaining just one or two more Fuleira?
Did it not taste any side effects? Just because it could be mitigated doesn’t mean it was absent, right?
"Elder Xuanyan, this thing is good, but I must clarify…"
"It has side effects; I know," Xuanyan interrupted Ye Zhongming before he could finish, giving the impression that it wasn't too concerned about the side effects.
"How much of this stuff do you have?" Xuanyan began to inquire.
Ye Zhongming blinked and replied, "Elder, to be honest, the amount of this stuff and how effective it is depends on whether I can survive and return to become stronger to meet the funding needs of my researchers."
Hearing this, Xuanyan gradually came down from its earlier excitement and fell into a long period of contemplation.
Everyone knew that this elder of the Dragon Race was considering something; when it spoke again, it would mark the moment of decision.
"I need to discuss this with the other elders." After saying this, Xuanyan directly flew away.
