NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 13: Chapter 13
**Chapter 13**
At this moment, in the picture:
[After entering the pharmacy, the owner cast a very enthusiastic look at Huo Yuhao.]
[He asked Huo Yuhao eagerly, "Little brother, what medicine are you looking to buy in our store?"]
[Huo Yuhao smiled brightly and replied, "Uncle, I have some pills here, and I want you to help me identify them. I might sell them to you later."]
[After saying that, Huo Yuhao added, "Of course, I also want to find out if you have any pills that can improve innate soul power. I would like to know the prices too."]
[The owner immediately became interested upon hearing this. After all, there are few types of pills that can improve innate soul power, and each one is quite expensive.]
[Though he didn't have much stock, selling just one pill could yield significant profit. Therefore, his attitude toward Huo Yuhao suddenly grew more enthusiastic.]
[The owner said, "Then please take out the pills you would like me to identify first."]
[After hearing this, Huo Yuhao took out the pills.]
[He didn't take out all his pills but only a few of them.]
[Then he handed a selection of pills to the owner and said, "Boss, these are the pills. Please help me take a look."]
[After examining them carefully, the owner gave Huo Yuhao a detailed response.]
["Most of your pills are recovery-related. For instance, this one is the Red Spirit Pill, which isn't too rare. I can recycle it for one gold soul coin."]
["This one is better: the Berserk Pill. After taking it, it boosts soul power for a short period. However, there is a brief period of weakness afterward, which can be considered a side effect. The price is around two gold soul coins."]
[The owner continued introducing the types of pills to Huo Yuhao along with their prices.]
[Then he started to present the pills in his store that could improve innate soul power.]
["Tianshui Pill—2,000 gold soul coins each! Little brother, I'm giving you a discount; you won't find it this cheap anywhere else."]
["And this, the Rongling Pill. It can also enhance innate soul power, but it's a bit pricier at 10,000 gold soul coins each!"]
[After introducing several kinds of pills that enhance innate soul power, he looked at Huo Yuhao expectantly, rubbing his hands together as he inquired which one he wanted to buy.]
[But Huo Yuhao smiled and turned him down. He said, "I'll check somewhere else first."]
[Then, Huo Yuhao visited other pharmacies throughout the city.]
[Using the same pills for identification, he found that the types identified were consistent, but the sale prices varied significantly. On average, he could sell each pill for two to three times more than before, and the prices of the Tianshui Pill and Rongling Pill in another pharmacy weren't as high.]
[Huo Yuhao smiled and continued to a different store.]
[After trying several shops, he finally found a place with reasonable prices.]
[He sold all the less useful pills at once and purchased several pills for enhancing innate soul power instead.]
[These pills had no side effects, as Huo Yuhao had already confirmed. He avoided purchasing pills that directly increased soul power because those typically came with adverse effects.]
[Such pills primarily cater to soul masters with low innate soul power. For them, even if their potential is affected by side effects later, they often find their strength already plateaued, making any potential overdrafts irrelevant.]
[Huo Yuhao chose only the pills that improve innate soul power without adverse effects.]
[Consequently, he bought all available elixirs that could enhance his innate soul power.]
[Afterward, he used the same approach to sell off the extra soul guides, keeping only those that could be useful now and in the future.]
[This act could be seen as a way to restore his strength.]
[Once he completed these transactions, Huo Yuhao did not linger in the city.]
[He quickly left the city and headed back toward the village.]
Meanwhile, those in the gap between the planes were a little dumbfounded after witnessing this scene.
Xiao Xiao exclaimed, "Yuhao in this parallel world is so experienced at doing things!"
"Those profiteers can't fool him at all!"
Huo Yuhao sighed, noticing, "It's the same Huo Yuhao; how can he be so powerful?"
"It's a bit too outrageous."
"And he has obtained so many medicines to enhance innate soul power. In this way, his innate soul power can also be improved."
Contemplating this comparison, Huo Yuhao reflected on himself.
Despite also being Huo Yuhao, he merely trained diligently upon discovering his inadequate innate soul power.
Although he was very hard-working, he barely reached the tenth level by the age of twelve.
If he hadn't later encountered Brother Tianmeng and Bingdi, he likely would have remained mediocre throughout his life.
However, his parallel self likely reached level 20 or above by the time he turned twelve.
This thought brought a sigh of disappointment, and he muttered to himself, "Comparing oneself to others is frustrating."
"Why didn't I realize how foolish I was before?"
He continued to observe the picture.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao in the image had returned to the village.
[Huo Yuhao first presented new clothes and delicacies he had bought from the city to his mother, Huo Yun'er.]
[After receiving the gifts, his mother was touched and kissed Huo Yuhao's cheek.]
[Then, Huo Yuhao returned to his room to practice.]
[He took a pill first, following the pharmacist's instructions.]
[After careful refinement, Huo Yuhao successfully raised his innate soul power to level two!]
[The next day, he began taking the second pill.]
[After refining that pill, his innate soul power reached the third level!]
[He continued with the third, fourth, and fifth pills.]
[Huo Yuhao used the pills to steadily enhance his innate soul power, even though the improvement effects began to diminish over time.]
[Nevertheless, he successfully raised his innate soul power to the sixth level!]
After witnessing this scene, Tang Ya, who was also in the gap between the planes, was startled.
"Is this really the innate soul power at the sixth level?"
"That was so fast!"
