Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns novel Chapter 167

Valerie's and Krish's magical artifact paled in comparison with the pitch-black one in Jacob's hand.

When had the Heavenly Pavilion ever refined such a powerful magical artifact?

"Purgatory!"

Jacob replied.

The sword in his hand once again flew across the sky.

"Do you still want to fight?"

Jacob looked down at the two, as if he was a devil.

Valerie and Krish exchanged glances.

They both saw the solemn look in each other's eyes.

With top-grade magical artifacts, the two Divinity cultivators worked together.

They thought there shouldn't be any problems in defeating Jacob.

However, reality disappointed them.

Jacob's strength had exceeded their expectations time and time again. Right now, they were no longer confident that they were able to kill Jacob.

A long moment passed.

As the Pavilion Master, Krish took a step forward with a gloomy expression.

He looked at Jacob and said, "The Pharmacy Pavilion will provide all the items on the Soul IOU."

In his entire life, when had he ever felt so aggrieved?

However, facing Jacob's strength, he had no choice but to submit.

Even if he and Valerie worked work in unison against Jacob, they would be injured in the end.

Krish had to grit his teeth and admit the Soul IOU.

"Good!"

Only then did Jacob reveal a satisfied expression.

The Pharmacy Pavilion dared to attack Jacob in Mount G, and Jacob only asked for some precious medicine. To Jacob, it was already a great kindness to those people.

In his previous life, if Jacob encountered such a thing, he would directly destroy the entire Pharmacy Pavilion, and then take away everything he needed without any exception.

After that, Jacob, Krish, and Valerie descended from hundreds of meters high.

Yana looked at Jacob with a complicated expression.

Jacob forced the Pharmacy Pavilion to make concessions.

Who would be able to suppress such a person?

No one would be able to fight against Jacob unless many peak Divinity Phase experts joined forces, or extremely modern weapons of mass destruction were used.

Yana couldn't help but think of it.

Yana was grateful that when she was in City R, she stopped Brennen from injuring Reed because of her kindness. Otherwise, the consequences would definitely be unimaginable.

Especially when Yana thought that Jacob said he would flatter the Pharmacy Pavilion, she had a hunch that if Jacob wanted, he meant it.

After they landed on the ground, many disciples of the Pharmacy Pavilion looked at Jacob, especially those offspring of the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder. They swallowed their anger and didn't dare to speak anything.

Jacob put on a cold smile. He didn't care at all. If the Pharmacy Pavilion didn't plan on attacking him first, it was impossible for Jacob to kill the disciples of the Pharmacy Pavilion. There was no reason for him to go to the Pharmacy Pavilion to get the medicine as well.

The Pharmacy Pavilion suffered from its own actions. And it just so happened to be in Jacob's interest.

...

...

The items Jacob needed on the Soul IOU were basically extremely rare. Some were the pavilion's most treasured medicinal ingredients.

Even Grand Elder Valerie did not have the access, so Krish went to retrieve them by himself.

The crowd did not invite Jacob into the Pharmacy Pavilion hypocritically.

Not long after, Krish appeared again.

With a wave of his hand, several medicinal ingredients that Jacob needed were present out of Krish's sleeves and floated in the air with the help of Krish's Zhen Qi.

"Three-hundred-year-old Saussurea Involucrate!"

"Five-hundred-year-old Scarlet Fruit."

...

"Thousand-year-old Violet Gold Bamboo tassel!"

"Thousand-year-old Cold Grass!"

...

Medicinal ingredients stunned the disciples of the Pharmacy Pavilion.

Even Yana was panting.

As the direct disciple of the Pavilion Master, she was treated as the successor.

Both Second Elder and Grand Elder kept changing their expressions when they saw so much precious medicine.

So, Yana's reaction was reasonable.

Every time one more medicinal ingredient appeared, Krish looked gloomier and gloomier.

As he gazed at these medicinal ingredients, his eyes were filled with extreme reluctance.

Krish grudged having to hand them in.

These were the trump cards of the Pharmacy Pavilion.

Today, Jacob would take half away. How could he remain calm?

Krish even considered risking his life to fight against Jacob again so as to keep these medicinal ingredients.

But in the end, after sensing Jacob's terrifying aura, Krish gave up.

He had to obediently present one medicinal ingredient after another.

Compared to Krish, Valerie felt both reluctant and aggrieved.

However, since things had already happened, the medicinal ingredients had to be handed over to Jacob.

Then there was no need to make an enemy with Jacob.

Valerie used telepathy to communicate with Krish.

Krish's expression became even grimmer, but he still nodded.

Valerie walked out and looked at Jacob. She smiled, "Mr. Reyes, we have taken out all the medicinal ingredients you need. I hope that the grudges from before will be written off from now on. How about it?"

The surrounding disciples looked at her bright smile in fascination.

Although Valerie was no longer young, time had not left many traces on her body. Moreover, the charm of such a woman was fatal to many young people.

However, facing Valerie, many disciples didn't even dare to have any evil thoughts.

Valerie's smile was like a ripe peach, attracting Krish and Second Elder.

As the Grand Elder of the Pharmacy Pavilion, Valerie had been holding a high position for a long time. With a noble temperament, she was able to attract everyone's attention with a smile without doing anything special.

However, Jacob revealed an indifferent smile. He nodded and said, "Alright."

Since he could get what he wanted, there was naturally no need for him to go against the Pharmacy Pavilion.

Valerie was a beauty.

Perhaps others found such a woman fascinating, but Jacob was not interested.

Jacob had seen countless women in his previous life, including all kinds of beauties.

In this life, there were also many beautiful women beside him. His wife, Kaley, was a raving beauty. Lena was charming. Besides, both his sister-in-law, Hayley, and his nominal disciple, Bernice were peerless beauties.

They had different temperaments.

Of course, the most important point was that Valerie looked like a young woman in her thirties, but she was already over sixty years old. For Jacob in this lifetime, she was as old as his grandma, so Jacob naturally wasn't interested in her at all.

Since Jacob agreed, Valerie heaved a sigh of relief.

The medicinal ingredients written on the Soul IOU were all present in front of Jacob.

After Jacob nodded, Krish took out other precious medicinal ingredients as a substitute for the medicinal ingredients that Jacob wanted but the Pharmacy Pavilion didn't have.

Right now, Jacob's spiritual will was extremely powerful. With a single glance, he had a clear understanding of the quantity, the quality, and the age of all the medicinal ingredients.

Jacob nodded in satisfaction. The Pharmacy Pavilion was quite sensible and didn't dare to play any tricks. Since that was the case, Jacob decided to give the simplified formula of the Small Resurrection Panacea to it.

However, Jacob still hadn't spoken.

Not far away, there was a commotion.

Jacob looked up.

At the entrance to the Pharmacy Pavilion, as beautiful as a paradise, a woman appeared.

"Sir, I am Elsa, the granddaughter of the Marshal of the Triangle Region, Shaan. Please report to the Pharmacy Pavilion for help."

This woman was Elsa, who was not far away from Jacob.

Elsa looked at a disciple guarding the entrance of the Pharmacy Pavilion with a polite smile on her face.

However, when this disciple named Derick saw Elsa's exotic feature, he found she was not from China. Today, Krish and Valerie had been defeated by an outsider. The Pharmacy Pavilion handed over medicine for compensation. Thus, Derick was in a bad mood.

As a disciple of the Pharmacy Pavilion, he felt extremely aggrieved.

As he looked at Elsa, there was a trace of impatience on his face. "No matter who you are, today, the Pharmacy Pavilion does not have this opportunity. Come back another day."

If it weren't for Elsa's good looks, Derick wouldn't even bother talking to her.

The Pharmacy Pavilion was incomparably mysterious, and it enjoyed a high position in China like secluded families.

It was located in the depths of the mountains of Mountain South Province. If any ordinary person came here by mistake, or if they went through hardship and came here for help after hearing the legend of the Pharmacy Pavilion, their visit would not be refused.

Their coming proved that they were lucky. The Pharmacy Pavilion would usually satisfy their requests for medicine and give them the panacea.

But today was clearly not the right time.

However, Elsa revealed a trace of anxiety and begging on her face.

"Sir, I do need the medicine. Please...." she said hurriedly in the official language of China.

Elsa didn't act like a spoiled child that she used to be in front of Shaan.

However, before she could finish, she was directly interrupted, "I told you to come back another day."

Derick's expression immediately turned cold.

Today, no one in the Pharmacy Pavilion would be in the mood to make panaceas for her.

Elsa saw Derick was distant.

She immediately bit her lips tightly and stopped talking.

She clenched her fists tightly. Why couldn't she cultivate martial arts by nature? Otherwise, she would definitely be able to protect her grandfather.

She would not be treated like an ordinary person and simply rejected by the Pharmacy Pavilion.

However, Elsa had no choice. No matter how anxious she was, it was useless.

She was supposed to spend several days searching for the location of the Pharmacy Pavilion. Fortunately, she met Jacob. Jacob saved her and brought her directly to the vicinity of the Pharmacy Pavilion, saving her a lot of time. If she couldn't get the medicine today, tomorrow wouldn't be too late.

Elsa had to retreat and wait until tomorrow.

However, when she thought of Jacob, his thin but tall figure appeared in her mind.

Jacob saved her from humiliation. Although Jacob didn't wear the golden armor or step on the seven-colored clouds, Jacob was already a hero for her.

Elsa's grandfather said before that he wanted Elsa to betroth to Jacob and let Jacob be his successor. At that time, Elsa was extremely unhappy. She did not want her grandfather to interfere in her marriage. She only liked heroes.

However, today, she discovered that Jacob could really be his hero.

She wondered what happened to Jacob after he arrived at the Pharmacy Pavilion.

Was the earth-shattering aura above the Pharmacy Pavilion related to him?

If Jacob had promised grandpa that he would marry her, take over the mantle of grandpa and take charge of the Triangle Region, grandpa might not be seriously injured.

This thought flashed through Elsa's mind.

She casually looked up and cast her gaze towards the Pharmacy Pavilion. But what she saw immediately stunned her.

Her eyes were full of disbelief.

"Jacob...."

Elsa murmured when she saw the figure that had appeared.
