He set aside the fruit and seeds and picked up a Jade Bottle.
The mouth of the bottle was sealed with beeswax, and a nearly faded piece of red paper was stuck to its side. The three characters for "Dragon and Tiger Pill" were written on it.
'Some kind of ruin?' Cheng Zongyang observed the Jade Bottle in his hand, mulling over the information from the description.
'Last time it was the Beastman District, this time it's some ruin. I wonder what the world outside is really like.' As Cheng Zongyang thought this, his hands didn't stop. He broke the beeswax seal and twisted open the cap.
A faint, refreshing fragrance, like that of a moth orchid, immediately wafted out.
'Speaking of which, this thing has been sitting around for so long... Even though it hasn't been exposed to air, based on the description, is it past its expiration date?' he thought, his mind taking a peculiar turn. With his right hand, he tipped the pill out.
It was a pale yellow pill, about the size of a soybean.
