Chapter 403
: The Magic Pill Arouses Public Outrage
At this time, in the center of the hall, two of the three most eye-catching monsters opened their eyes. Patriarch Fentian and Duan Tianwu opened their eyes almost at the same time, and picked up the pen to write the pill formula at a very fast speed.
But the other monster also woke up, but he did not open his eyes. He just kept his eyes closed and rested.
He came out of his state of enlightenment, but he could not hide it from the judges, except that no one discovered it.
Long Xuan was the one who got out of the state of enlightenment the fastest, much faster than Long Yuyao and the other two. He had the help of the Soul Book House to cheat, and when it came to the speed of creating his own pill formula, no one here could match him.
However, even though he was the first one to wake up among everyone, he was cunning and pretended that he had not finished his enlightenment and was sleeping soundly there.
Of course, he was prepared to wait for all his competitors to hand over their recipes, and then hand over his own recipe after understanding the enemy's situation.
He has three kinds of pill recipes in his hand: Bone Growing and Blood Melting Pill, Estrus Pill, and Abridged Version of Estrus Pill.
He had to observe the quality of the pill recipes submitted by his opponent, and then consider which kind of pill recipe he should submit in order to maximize his benefits.
If the only way to defeat those two people is to use the Growing Bone and Blood Melting Pill, then he will have no choice but to grit his teeth and hand over the Growing Bone and Blood Melting Pill recipe.
When Patriarch Fentian and Duan Tianwu had already written most of the recipe, Long Xuan pretended to open his eyes and looked over. With the eyes of the Eye of Heaven, he could instantly see through the recipes of the two.
When Long Xuan saw the words "living people" in large letters among the materials on the two people's pill recipes, he was immediately shocked.
My goodness, they actually use living people to make pills, and even cruelly use the Gu King to make pills. In such circumstances, is it really a good idea to create such a pill recipe?
You should know that no one can judge whether a pill prescription is genuine just by looking at it.
Who knows whether the pill recipe you created can be used to make the pill in the end? The judges will first assume that the recipe is real. After scoring, they will spend a lot of time to make the pill to confirm its authenticity.
If there is something wrong with the pill formula and the pill cannot be refined at all, then the results of this round will be cancelled.
The two of them were so arrogant that they created a recipe for making elixirs using living people. Do they really have to let the judges kill people to confirm the authenticity of the recipe?
This grand alchemy competition has attracted much attention, and all forces in the Western Regions are paying attention to it.
In such a grand competition, two recipes for making elixirs using living people appeared. Long Xuan had a hunch that no matter how incredible these two recipes were, they would be destroyed in public. Otherwise, it would cause a huge public opinion that the Ten Nations would not be able to withstand.
Through pharmacology, Long Xuan quickly determined the effects of the two pill recipes and couldn't help but show surprise.
Wow, that recipe called "Gu Wang Dan" can actually turn a Gu cultivator in the Juling period into an early Gu Wang. It's simply amazing!
Although this pill will cost the person who swallows it a lifetime price of no progress in cultivation, and the ingredients of the pill are rare and cannot be mass-produced, but for a force, its value is no less than his aphrodisiac pill.
Another pill called "Soul-Replenishing Pill" is even more terrifying. It actually requires throwing a bunch of living people into the alchemy furnace, and then refining the people into the purest soul essence. Eating the Soul-Replenishing Pill containing the soul essence can increase the innate soul power.
So far, Long Xuan only knew that his soul-nourishing wood could increase innate soul power, and he had never seen a second treasure that could increase innate soul power. Today, he finally saw it.
Long Xuan smacked his lips. The Soul-Replenishing Pill was just as powerful as his Aphrodisiac Pill.
He slowly revealed a solemn expression. These two kinds of elixirs were too powerful. He could only win if he used the recipe of the bone-melting elixir. If he used the complete version of the estrus elixir, he could at most tie. No, they were refining magic elixirs that used living people to make elixirs, which were not favored by the righteous alchemists. Those righteous alchemists would probably not give the magic elixir the highest score. It should be enough for him to use the abridged version of the estrus elixir recipe.
Thinking of this, Long Xuan gained confidence and immediately began to write an abridged version of the recipe for the aphrodisiac pill on paper.
However, no one was paying attention to him at this time. When the judges saw the two prescriptions with the words "living people" written in big letters, their faces turned grim.
As long as the benefits are big enough, they don't mind using some magical power, but this can only be used secretly and not openly.
This is an alchemy competition that is watched by tens of thousands of people. If the organizers of the competition dare to collect the recipe for a magic pill that can kill people in front of everyone, their reputation will be ruined.
By then, he might be incorporated into the evil forces and attacked by those forces who want to kill people and seize treasures but can't find an excuse.
Qin Shang shook his head and smiled bitterly, "What a pity! These two recipes are really terrifying. One can quickly increase the number of Gu Kings in a faction, and the other can greatly increase the innate soul power. They are the favorites of all alchemists."
"To be honest, these two kinds of pill recipes really make me excited, but why is it that they have to be magic pills?"
"Tsk tsk, relying on hunting Gu Kings to quickly increase the number of Gu Kings in a faction, if anyone possesses this kind of magic pill, he will be attacked by everyone."
Long Xiaoyao's face was gloomy. He slammed the table heavily and said angrily: "These two old demons actually dared to create their own magic pills in the competition. How arrogant!"
"Do you know the consequences if these two recipes are spread out?"
“Once the recipe for the Gu King Pill spreads, countless forces will kill the King to make the pill. By then, the number of Gu Kings in various places will inevitably decrease significantly, and the Western Region will be filled with killings, and will fall into chaos.”
"These two recipes must be destroyed in public and must not be spread out. All of us must also erase this part of our memory, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the judges looked solemn, realizing the seriousness of the problem.
"That's right! These two magic pill recipes must not be kept. What about this round of competition? Are these two old demons going to be disqualified from the competition?" A righteous female judge in the judges' booth said angrily.
Feng Tiancheng shook his head and sighed, "Disqualifying a contestant from the competition also requires a reason. The competition rules do not say that they cannot refine magic pills. They did not violate the competition rules."
"You should understand why Patriarch Fentian came to participate in this alchemy competition. If we disqualify him from the competition, he will definitely go crazy."
"Who among us can be a match for Patriarch Fentian? If we don't want to mess up this alchemy competition and be laughed at by the world, then we must not act recklessly."
"There are a large number of death row prisoners in the prison in Tianfeng City. Just give me some points after you prove that these two recipes are true."
Feng Tiancheng was counting on Old Ancestor Fentian to win the competition, so how could he agree to disqualify him? So he immediately spoke out in opposition.
However, his explanation made sense, and under his sophistry, no one proposed to disqualify the two from the competition. (End of this chapter)
