Everyone hastened their work, and the second batch of pills was quickly finished with the other pill furnace.
“Master Chen, the second batch of pills is also finished.”
As soon as the voice sounded, Master Chen immediately ran over to check the composition of the pills.
He picked up a pill and quickly threw it into his mouth. However, after chewing for a while, his expression once again became unsightly.
“It’s still not enough. It’s still far from reaching the right level. What’s going on?”
He tapped his index finger on his forehead, trying to get some inspiration.
suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, but it was followed by a sense of despair.
“It’s over! It’s over! This time, it’s all over!”
After saying that, he sat down on the ground as if he had lost his mind.
The other alchemists were all confused.
“What’s going on? Why is Master Chen acting like this?”
Some of the more experienced alchemists took out a pill and tasted it. They seemed to have understood what was going on and shook their heads.
Sigh!
Everyone sighed deeply.
“I’s because of the lack of spiritual energy!
“This pill formula is from the primordial times. Although it is effective against the Blood Butterfly, it is suitable for the primoridal age.
“During the immemorial era, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was quite abundant, so it was easier to refine pills.
“However, during this era, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was much weaker than during that era. Moreover, this is the Azure Billow star field, the boundary of the starry sky, so the spiritual energy is even thinner.
“This caused when refining pills, the accumulated spiritual energy was insufficient, and thus, it was unable to refine pills that were comparable to the immemorial era!
“Since we were unable to refine pills of that level, there was naturally no way to lure the Blood Butterfly.”
“Doesn’t that mean that these people who were poisoned by the Blood Butterfly are destined to die?”
“We are all useless! As alchemists of the Xuan Yuan clan, we can only watch helplessly as our own race is tormented by the poisonous parasite. There’s nothing we can do.”
A deep sense of self-blame was suppressed in everyone’s hearts.
After a short moment, an alchemist could not help but speak,
“Master Chen, what should we do now? Young Master Ning is still waiting for our good news.”
Master Chen Sighed and got up from the ground.
“At this point, there’s nothing we can do. This old man will personally go and explain. This matter is, after all, this old man’s useless!”
“Master Chen…”
Everyone was speechless and did not know what to say.
However, at that moment, one of them suddenly opened his mouth and said,
“Yi, who refined a pot of medicinal pills here?”
Everyone looked over and saw a pot of dull-looking medicinal pills.
“Why doesn’t this medicinal pill have any luster? It must have been refined into a useless pill, right?”
However, one of the grandmasters in the crowd could vaguely sense that something was amiss. He walked forward and said,
“That’s strange. Although this pill doesn’t have any luster, it has such a regular and round appearance. According to normal logic, it shouldn’t have no luster at all!”
After saying that, he picked up a pill and took a bite. In the next second, a ray of golden light mixed with extremely dense spiritual qi gushed out from his mouth.
“Oh my God!”
He was so excited that he almost dropped the pill in his mouth.
“Senior Chen, come here quickly! Come here quickly!”
Master Chen immediately walked over.
“What’s going on?”
The alchemist pointed at the bowl of the pill.
“The golden light is restrained, and the spiritual energy is condensed to the extreme! This is the best of the best!”
“How is this possible?”
Master Chen was shocked. He quickly picked up a pill and put it into his mouth. His eyes lit up, and he was so excited that he was speechless.
“This… This pill is really amazing!
“To refine a pill of that level to such an extent that it was beyond its original level, the alchemist behind this must be one of the top few in the galaxy!
“Who was it?
“Who was the one who refined this pill?”
Master Chen raised the pill in his hand and shouted at the crowd.
However, no one stood out.
“Didn’t you see who did it?”
The crowd shook their heads. Master Chen could not help but ask in puzzlement,
“This is strange! How could this happen? Such a high-quality pill couldn’t have appeared here for no reason. Someone must have refined it! How could we not find him?”
“Master Chen, what we need to do now is not to find out who concocted the pill. We need to send these pills to the hospital.
“Those who were poisoned are still waiting to use them.”
“Yes, yes, yes, we need to send the pills out quickly. Quick, put them in a spirit-protecting porcelain bottle. Quick!”
At the hospital, Ning Zhiyuan waited in the ward for a while. Uncle Ning finally opened his eyes slowly.
“Uncle, you’re awake.”
Ning Zhiyuan immediately bent over. Uncle Ning said in a weak voice,
“Don’t come near me!”
Ning Zhiyuan nodded. He knew how powerful that poison was.
“Uncle, I’ve asked Master Chen and the others to quickly develop a pill. It will definitely be able to save you.”
Uncle Ning chuckled and then shook his head.
“There isn’t much hope. The Blood Butterfly was also an extremely troublesome poison during the primordial era. It is very difficult to completely remove it.
“although Master Chen is one of the most powerful alchemists in our clan, he might not be able to deal with the terrifying poison during the primordial era.
“There is a high chance that I won’t be able to survive this time.
“However, you don’t have to be too sad. With my body and soul dead, the family can use the blood essence and soul I left in the family ancestral hall to resurrect me.”
Ning Zhiyuan felt rather sad.
Although his uncle was right, in reality, if he resurrected, his blood essence and soul would suffer a huge loss. His future in martial arts would be bleak.
“Uncle, please don’t say that. No one knows what will happen until the last moment.”
“That’s not what I want to talk to you about. Zhiyuan, you came here to train yourself. The most important thing is to train your character so that you can stand on your own in the future.
“Promise me that in two days at most, if Master Chen still hasn’t finished the pill, you will kill everyone who has been infected with the poisonous parasite. Don’t leave a single one behind.
“Lknow that you are a good child. You will definitely not have the heart to kill your own kind.
“But for the benefit of the entire race, you must make a choice.
“If the Blood Butterfly is not eliminated, the entire Ning family of the Nine Provinces might be wiped out.”
Ning Zhiyuan nodded with a serious expression. He knew that his uncle’s suggestion was for his own good.
However, at that moment, several figures suddenly rushed in.
“Young Master Ning, the pill is here.”
Ning Zhiyuan was overjoyed.
“So fast? How is the effect?”
“Don’t worry. We have tried the pill before we came here, and some people have already eaten it outside. The effect is surprisingly good.”
“Good! Quick, give one pill to my second uncle.”
Master Chen immediately gave Ning Yicheng another pill. In the next second, Ning Yicheng’s body was covered with a layer of golden light.
The golden light scanned the area and soon, Ning Yi Cheng spat out a mouthful of blood. Master Chen struck out with his palm and gathered the blood with his spiritual energy. Then, he released a flame to burn it. Soon, an intense scream was heard from inside, then, it turned into a pile of ashes.
As for Ning Yi Cheng, he quickly recovered his energy and sat up from the bed.
“Tm really healed. Isn’t the speed of the pill a little too fast?”
He could not help but exclaim in surprise.
Ning Zhiyuan immediately bowed deeply to Master Chen.
“Thank you, Master Chen! It’s all up to you this time. If not, I really don’t know what I would have done.”
Master Chen waved his hand.
“Young Master Ning, you’ve misunderstood me. I’m not the one who made the pill, but someone else.”
Ning Zhiyuan was stunned. He and his uncle looked at each other and asked curiously,
“How is that possible? There shouldn’t be anyone in the Azure Billow star field who is stronger than you in alchemy, right?”
Master Chen shook his head again.
“Today, I have also opened my eyes! In the past, there was always someone better than me. I never believed that in the entire starry sky, only those celestial alchemists who ranked higher than me could be stronger than me in alchemy.
“I didn’t expect someone to teach me a lesson today.
“Even I couldn’t compare to their alchemy skills.
“No, that’s not right. It’s insulting to their level. I don’t even deserve to carry their shoes!”
“What?”
Ning Zhiyuan and Ning Yi Cheng were shocked. They were already shocked when Master Chen said that he did not refine the pills.
Then, Master Chen gave him such a high evaluation.
That was unbelievable!
“Master Chen, who is this person? Can you introduce him to us?”
Master Chen shook his head.
“I don’t know either. Because I have never seen him before.
“We had already failed to make the pill. I was even prepared to come and apologize to Young Master Ning.
“However, we didn’t expect that a basin of pills would suddenly appear in our pill room. We don’t know who refined the pills, nor do we know who placed them there.”
Ning Yicheng’s expression was solemn as he thought deeply,
“although Master Chen’s main focus is on refining pills and his combat power is not very strong, you have been cultivating for hundreds of years and your cultivation has already reached the first level of the Godslayer realm.
“Besides, there are other alchemists in the alchemy room.
“The fact that the other party was able to put the pills there without you noticing must mean that his cultivation is not simple!”
Master Chen nodded.
“yi Cheng is right. Not only is his alchemy skills admirable, but his cultivation is also unfathomable. It is terrifying to the extreme.
“If possible, I would like to meet him!”
At that moment, Ning Zhiyuan could not help but speak slowly,
“Do you guys think that he i: he Saber-sword Immortal?”
