"If I could live again, no one in this world could compare to me."
Lin Zhen, although a star-realm warrior, lived a miserable life. From the Earth era to the great migration of humani...
Chapter 865: Resurrection from the Dead (3rd update)
No one expected that Lin Zhen’s gambling fight would have such an outcome.
He took advantage of the fact that the monkeys were about to enter estrus to undo what Lala had prepared long ago, and also brought this seventh-grade alchemist under his command.
Even if Li Nian could turn the tables in the last round, Lalati is still Lin Zhen's apprentice, and this cannot be changed.
Klinsmann and others were already full of admiration for Lin Zhen's methods, and they were clapping and cheering enthusiastically.
Lalati was also very free and easy. After the monkey was pulled away and the embarrassing situation was gone, she had returned to normal. She put on her black robe and stood silently not far behind Lin Zhen.
But no one knew what she was thinking.
******** Lin Zhen has already won 700 million, and now the only person coming to challenge him is Li Nian.
This round is also the last round. The betting amount is 800 million. If Lin Zhen wins, he will have 1.5 billion. If he loses, he will lose everything and have to pay another 100 million.
One billion is absolutely impossible to come up with, so we can't afford to lose this game.
Li Nian came in front of Lin Zhen, stared at Lin Zhen for a while, and said nothing for a long time.
"Speak up, since you dare to come to me, what do you want to compete for?" Lin Zhen asked.
"Lin Zhen, you have proven your strength through controlling fire, picking herbs, and refining pills. I now believe that you are already a saint-level alchemist."
"So what? Will you give up the competition just because I'm a Saint-level alchemist? I have no objection if you admit defeat. That way you might be able to save some face."
Li Nian shook his head: "Lin Zhen, don't let your imagination run wild. Although you are a Saint-level alchemist, I can still see through your disguise."
After saying that, Li Nian came to the center of the hall of Lin Zhen's pharmacy.
Pointing to the huge sign in the center of the hall that read "Resurrection from the Dead," Li Nian shouted, "I came here today to expose your fake identity. Lin Zhen, what right do you have to say you can bring back the dead?"
Lin Zhen frowned slightly: "The Nine Revolutions Golden Pill I refined can revive a person within seven days. As long as your body is not damaged or incomplete, there will be no problem. Isn't this bringing the dead back to life?"
Li Nian sneered: "I don't think so. Even if the person's body is fine, you can't revive him. I now strongly doubt that the efficacy of your medicine is not that good."
"My elixir is right here. You can't question it with just empty words."
"Don't worry about it. I will find a way to verify it."
Li Nian turned around and said to everyone around him, "Dear brothers and sisters in Tianfang City, I, Li Nian, have been selling elixirs in Tianfang City for tens of thousands of years, and I have never heard of an elixir that can bring the dead back to life. Since Master Lin Zhen dares to make such a boast, he must be very confident in his elixir, so today I will test it on the spot!"
The people around were stunned. Test? How to test?
Are they really going to bring the dead back to life? There is no way to guarantee the time of death.
Or, who committed suicide on the spot?
But who would do this experiment? What if someone really died and couldn't come back to life? The crowd was in an uproar, saying all sorts of things, but they were obviously excited.
Li Nian quickly continued, "In order to prove this, I specially found two death row prisoners from Tianfang City's prison. They were supposed to be executed today, but now I'm giving them a chance. If they can be resurrected after taking Lin Zhen's elixir, then they will be free. The two death row prisoners also agreed, so let's give it a try."
Soon, two death row prisoners were brought up.
They were all ordinary-looking warriors who had all entered a period of immortality. No one knew what they had done wrong.
Li Nian looked at Lin Zhen: "Lin Zhen, if you regret it now, it's not too late. Otherwise, you won't be able to end it when the test is conducted on the spot."
Lin Zhen smiled and said, "There's no need for that. Just try."
"Okay, okay! Since you're still stubborn, I'll start."
As he spoke, Li Nian seemed to be about to take action against the two death row prisoners.
At this time, Lin Zhen's newly accepted apprentice La Lati asked: "Don't you care if someone died in your pharmacy?"
Lin Zhen waved his hand: "It's not a dead person, it's a resurrection!"
Lalati was stunned for a moment, and then kept silent.
The people around who originally felt something was wrong were also stunned, and then a look of realization appeared on their faces. If he really came back to life, Lin Zhen's business would probably be in big trouble.
Countless filmings have begun. Everyone wants to witness this process. These live broadcasts are also extremely popular in the dimensional universe. The title of "Resurrection from the Dead" is extremely attractive in itself, and Lin Zhen's popularity has exploded again.
Li Nian walked up to the first death row prisoner. He himself did not believe that Lin Zhen could resurrect the dead. Maybe some saint-level alchemists could do it, but Lin Zhen was so young that he really couldn't believe it.
When he came in front of the first person, he turned his hand over and a short knife appeared in his palm.
Without hesitation, he stabbed the first death row prisoner in the heart!
Blood flowed out and the prisoner fell to the ground, holding his chest.
The immortal warrior was not going to die so easily, he stabbed him a few more times and killed him completely.
During this process, Lin Zhen remained calm. After Li Nian finished, Lin Zhen asked, "Is there anyone else who needs to check to see if this person is really dead?"
Everyone waved their hands, saying there was no need to look, as the man was already dead.
Li Nian said at this time: "Now please ask Master Lin Zhen to save people."
Lin Zhen nodded: "I can save people, but who will pay for the medicine?"
Li Nian was stunned for a moment, then a trace of anger appeared on his face: "What a stingy miser, he just made hundreds of millions, and he's still calculating this little money for the pills."
"That's different. Now it's you who wants to test it, not me. Besides, refining pills also costs money. If Boss Li is unwilling to pay, then just take him away. Sooner or later, someone will be able to test my pills."
Li Nian came here today to bring down Lin Zhen, so of course he couldn't leave like this. He gritted his teeth, took out 10 million, and bought a pill.
At that time, no one knew the efficacy of the medicine, and no one competed with Li Nian.
Soon the pill was obtained, and Li Nian stuffed the pill into the dead person's mouth.
The pill melted in his mouth and did not need to be swallowed, and quickly entered his stomach.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the man's wound soon stopped bleeding, and a strange fragrance wafted from his body.
After a while, the prisoner's wounds had scabbed over, and in front of everyone's eyes, his fingers twitched slightly! "He's alive! He's really alive!"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"This is simply a miracle. I have heard of resurrections before, but I thought they were all legends and never happened in Tianfang City!"
"A Saint-level alchemist is indeed not a joke. Saint Master Lin Zhen, please accept me as your disciple. I don't want any wages, I'll even pay you, and I can do odd jobs for you!"
"Count me in, I can take your last name, as long as Master can teach me a little bit of skills."
Several alchemists actually knelt down and wanted to become his disciples.
The death row prisoner over there had already opened his eyes and even slowly sat up. Although there was still a look of confusion on his face, he soon fell into ecstasy.
"I'm alive! I'm really alive, hahaha! Saint Master Lin Zhen, you are really my second parent. I will serve you forever in the future, okay?"
Some excited people applauded, and some smart people even grabbed the remaining two pills and made an offer.
But none of them could snatch the spot from Li Nian. After all, Li Nian was still very prestigious. In addition, they were outnumbered and pushed aside the people around them, occupying the front of the counter. They shouted to the people, "What do you know? A knife wound in the heart can be treated. If you don't know how to make pills, don't join in the fun. The test is not over yet. Maybe his pills won't be as effective for other injuries."
The restless crowd finally calmed down. Since they couldn't get the items anyway, they just wanted to see the final effect.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Zhen took back the third pill: "You can't fight for it like this. If you want to buy it next time, you have to bid normally."
Li Nian came to the second death row prisoner with a gloomy face.
Mental shock!
Li Nian sent a mental shock to the prisoner who was in the early stage of immortality, and at the same time, cut off his neck with one palm! The prisoner died on the spot, his body fell limply to the ground, his neck was obviously fractured, and only the skin was connected.
Lin Zhen frowned slightly. The main cause of death of this death row prisoner was a broken soul. His spiritual consciousness was shattered by Li Nian's attack, not the broken neck on the surface. That was just a trick of Li Nian.
If it was the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill that Qian Tong had refined in the past, it would really not be able to save the death row prisoner. However, the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill now has been improved by Lin Zhen. It possesses super soul power and proficient mental power in pill refining. Lin Zhen's Nine Revolutions Golden Pill has the effect of gathering souls.
It is especially effective for people who have just died.
Li Nian confidently gave the pill to the prisoner, and then waited to see Lin Zhen's joke.
But what he didn't expect was that above the head of the death row prisoner, there were actually twinkling golden stars.
"Holy crap! This is awesome! This is soul gathering!"
"This, this, this, this elixir is incredible, I have read about the gathering of souls in ancient books, but I didn't expect it to be true, it's amazing!"
"Master! Even if you hit me in the face with a toilet plunger, I will not leave. From now on, I will live in Jindanfang permanently and be a medicine boy."
"Sister, please come up and accept my respect!"
Lalati, who had just become Lin Zhen's apprentice, had now become a senior sister. Someone actually tried to establish a relationship with her, causing her to avoid him with a look of disgust.
Lin Zhen smiled as he watched the second prisoner come back to life, then turned to Li Nian and said, "Have you given up this time, Boss Li? Is it time to cash in your 800 million?"
Li Nian's face looked extremely ugly. Seeing that the people present were treating Lin Zhen as a god, how could he be willing to accept this?
When he came here, he had the idea of winning in his mind. Now he gritted his teeth and said, "No! It's not over yet. Lin Zhen, you still have the third pill. Sell it to me. I want to test it again."
Lin Zhen shook his head: "No, we have already used two death row prisoners. There are no more death row prisoners. It would be illegal to continue. We can't just kill people randomly here."
Li Nian yelled, "It's not someone else, it's me! Can I test it myself?!"
