"Hahaha!"

"Truly impressive!"

"This has instantly elevated my opinion of your reclusive family by more than one level, so I'll accept it without further ado!"

Lin Jinglong burst into laughter.

Then, a crimson spiritual fire emerged from his palm, and with the strongest alchemy skills he had mastered to date, the sixth-grade spiritual fire gradually dispelled the seal.

This scene astonished Nangong and the others.

"He really is an alchemist!"

"Judging from the ball of spiritual fire in his hand, its quality is indeed quite high. Even our Nangong family cannot afford to support a sixth-grade alchemist. This person seems to have quite a background!"

The alluring woman's eyes sparkled.

The way they looked at Lin Jinglong immediately changed.

"I ignored him earlier, but for some reason, he seems more and more handsome now."

She murmured to herself.

But at the same time, another thing came to mind.

"He just mentioned your hidden family. Could it be that this person isn't a member of the Hidden Alliance? Then what is his background?"

While Bai Ling'er was speculating.

Lin Jinglong has broken the seal.

"The Imperial Elixir?"

He silently read out the name of the pill.

The so-called Imperial Pill can consume one's own blood and vitality to instantly raise the strength of a martial artist below the Martial Emperor level to the Martial Emperor level.

How long can it last?

Judging solely from the individual's blood and qi reserves, insufficient blood and qi will burn away vitality, leading to its depletion...

They're definitely going to die!

"Interesting. This kind of life-shortening pill is almost comparable to a poison pill. It can only be used in desperate situations, and the probability of survival is very small. It seems a bit useless."

Lin Jinglong was silently shaking his head.

But suddenly his eyes lit up.

"wrong!"

"This Imperial Pill uses vital energy and blood as fuel, allowing the user to temporarily unleash Imperial-level strength, but it causes enormous damage to the body!"

"But I possess the Nirvana Technique!"

"After taking the pill, the Imperial Extreme Pill will burn my vital energy, but the effect of the Nirvana Treasure Technique is that the weaker my vital energy, the stronger I become, which will allow me to leap forward in strength a second time!"

When Lin Jinglong had this conjecture, a storm raged in his heart.

If the conjecture is confirmed.

The Imperial Pill burns blood and vitality, while the Nirvana Technique unleashes its power the more critical the life force becomes; the two complement each other!

This will enable him in a short period of time.

Unleashing unparalleled power!

"By forcibly elevating oneself to the Martial Emperor realm with the Imperial Extreme Pill, and then further enhancing one's strength with the Nirvana Treasure Technique based on the Martial Emperor realm, the effect of the Nirvana Treasure Technique can be maximized!"

The only drawback is that it's too dangerous, since this pill will greatly reduce his health!

Just as Lin Jinglong was pondering this in his heart.

Those around him only saw a stream of spiritual energy enter Lin Jinglong's mind after the seal was broken.

His expression then became unpredictable, sometimes worried, sometimes ecstatic.

"It seems that the pill formula is quite valuable!"

"Nonsense, that's a sixth-grade pill formula!"

"And this person also possesses the strength of a sixth-grade alchemist, making them a perfect match!"

Nangong Sui looked at Lin Jinglong with envy.

He then quietly suppressed his smile.

"Get ready to take action!"

"yes!"

The other martial saints beside them, including Bai Ling'er, did not hesitate at all.

A cold smile appeared on Nangong Sui's lips.

The truth is that they want Lin Jinglong to break the seal. They won't do anything during this process, but they will let him leave with the pill formula.

That's impossible, of course.

Lin Jinglong put away the jade slip.

He turned his head and glanced at Nangong Sui and the others.

"Thank you all for protecting me!"

"No need to thank us. As long as you hand over the pill formula and all the elixirs you have, I can let you go."

Nangong Sui said with his hands behind his back.

"You're a sixth-grade alchemist, you must have quite a few good items on you, right?"

When this matter is brought up...

Lin Jinglong immediately felt a little regretful.

He can currently refine up to grade six pills, but the problem is that he doesn't have a suitable alchemy furnace.

At most, it can only be refined to the fifth grade.

Seeing his silence, Nangong Sui assumed he was considering it and gestured to Bai Ling'er with his eyes.

She stepped forward and said to Lin Jinglong in a soft, charming voice, "Young master, I see that you are so young yet have such talent in alchemy. Your future is limitless. There is no need to take risks for a single pill formula."

"Why don't you hand over the items?"

"We will let you go."

Her voice was sweet and delicate, yet very hot.

Lin Jinglong glanced at her and suddenly laughed.

"Hehe, why do you think a pill refiner who can refine sixth-grade spirit pills would have such weak companions?"

"Why?"

Bai Ling'er was somewhat puzzled.

Lin Tianlang and the others behind touched their noses.

Although it is the truth, the truth is the most hurtful.

Only the cult leader, Lin Yang, remained calm.

In the depths of his being, he had already gained some insight.

Unbeknownst to him, the Vajra Suppressing Prison Technique had reached its peak, and his Martial Venerable Perfection realm began to waver, almost stepping into the Saint rank.

Lin Jinglong also put his hands behind his back, his palms subtly gathering power to unleash the Vajra Suppressing Prison Force, ready to be released at any moment.

"Naturally, it's because this sixth-grade alchemist is very strong, stronger than you can imagine!"

He glanced at Nangong Sui and the others one last time.

"Hmph! You're just a Saint-level expert at most, and you dare to pretend to be a master with us?"

Nangong Sui looked disdainful.

"Don't you even look at yourself? We have six Martial Saints on our side. Don't go looking for trouble!"

"And your biggest mistake was breaking the seal right in front of us, doing all the work for us. Did you really think it was so easy to get benefits?"
