Ling Feng was taken aback, "Why?"
"It seems you don't really understand, traditional Chinese medicine is all about interactions that can support or oppose each other. Some of the ingredients you've chosen have conflicting effects, and brewing them together could be lethal!" the old man said.
"Really?" Ling Feng was also startled.
He was only following the prescription from the 'Classic of the Divine Farmer'. The Continuation Pill was made from these medicinal ingredients, how could it possibly be toxic?
After a quick thought, he immediately smiled and said, "You've misunderstood, elder. This medicine isn't for ingestion. It's for external application. Don't worry, nothing will go wrong."
The old man looked skeptical; he had been immersed in medicinal materials for decades. Although external application wasn't unheard of in Chinese medicine, he had never heard of the combination of ingredients that Ling Feng was talking about.
