As Taiqing Immortal Venerable spoke, he frowned and covered his heart, looking as if he was seriously injured and in great pain.
"Oh no, I'm starting to feel uncomfortable again. I need to lie down and rest for a while."
Taiqing Immortal Venerable lay down weakly, groaning "ouch, ouch" from his mouth, but secretly glanced at Shen Qiqi from the corner of his eye.
"You want me to save your father, right? No problem. As long as you agree to be my disciple, I will immediately make an elixir to save your father."
Shen Qiqi had no idea what Immortal Taiqing was thinking.
Seeing the pain on Taiqing Immortal Venerable's face, she thought about how he had indeed suffered backlash for forcibly removing the poison from her father's body. Therefore, facing Taiqing Immortal Venerable's weakness, Shen Qiqi had no doubts, but only said anxiously: "But my father... he must be detoxified as soon as possible."
Taiqing Immortal Venerable groaned weakly, nodding in agreement. "Indeed. The poison your father was infected with is extremely sinister and toxic. If it's delayed for too long, and the poison penetrates his heart meridians, then even a Daluo Jinxian, let alone me, would be unable to save your father's life."
A big knife stabbed into Shen Qiqi's heart without any hesitation.
Shen Qiqi's heart shrank in pain and she almost lost her balance.
She quickly held onto the edge of the table with her palms, her face pale as she asked, "Immortal Venerable, do you really have no solution at all?"
In her previous life, she watched her father die in front of her.
Is she going to live her life again and see the same tragedy happen again?
No!
Absolutely not!
She won't allow that to happen again!
Shen Qiqi bit her lip fiercely, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed, "Please, Immortal Venerable, find a way to save my father's life!"
Her kneeling was so sudden that Taiqing Immortal Venerable almost couldn't help but have someone serve her apprenticeship tea. He sighed with regret and said, "It's not completely impossible..."
Shen Qiqi, who was struggling on the edge of despair, suddenly brightened her eyes and looked up at Taiqing Immortal Venerable: "Is there really a way, Immortal Venerable? That's great! Disciple thanks Immortal Venerable for saving my life..."
"Stop, stop. Don't rush to thank me yet. If you really want to thank someone, it should be yourself."
"Thank myself?" Shen Qiqi was bewildered and asked, "I am an ignorant disciple. May I ask what the Immortal Venerable means by this?"
Taiqing Immortal Venerable: "As you can see, I am injured and cannot open the furnace to refine the elixir, but your father can't wait for me to recover, so I thought of a compromise."
He coughed lightly a few times, cleared his throat, and said to Shen Qiqi seriously: "I see that you are quite smart and have a lot of medical knowledge in your head, so I want to teach you the recipe. How about you make the detoxification pill for your father yourself?"
Shen Qiqi: "...but I don't know how to make pills either."
Taiqing Immortal Venerable glared and said, "If you don't know how to learn, then you can learn? Who is born knowing everything?... Don't be too nervous. The detoxification pill your father needs is not difficult to refine. Just follow my instructions, mix the herbs in the right proportions, and control the heat, and you'll be done."
“…” Shen Qiqi still didn’t dare to agree immediately.
It is difficult for those who don’t know how to do it, and it is not difficult for those who know how to do it.
For a medical leader like Taiqing Immortal Venerable, refining pills is probably as simple as eating and drinking water.
However, for her, it was more difficult than forcing a warrior to embroider.
Seeing Shen Qiqi remained silent, Taiqing Immortal Venerable was afraid that she would figure out something else, so he continued to put pressure on her and said, "If you don't have the courage to accept it, then you can only wait until my injury is 70% to 80% healed, and then I will start refining the detoxification pill for your father."
As he spoke, he secretly pinched his thigh.
A dull but piercing pain instantly swept through his body. Taiqing Immortal Venerable's facial features were distorted in pain. He grinned and gasped, and cold sweat instantly appeared on his forehead.
Now he looked even more like a seriously injured person.
Shen Qiqi looked at the other person's pale face and thought to herself, "By the time you recover from your injury and start the furnace, my father might be gone."
With no other options, Shen Qiqi had to bite the bullet and said, "Okay, I'll make my father's detoxification pill. However, since this is my first time making a pill, I'd still like to ask for your guidance."
The plan was halfway successful, and Taiqing Immortal Venerable was beaming with joy. However, he remained calm on the surface, putting on a serious face and saying, "Of course. Don't worry, I will write down the recipe for you right away, and then teach you some key points and precautions for refining this pill."
After Taiqing Immortal Venerable finished speaking, as if he was afraid that Shen Qiqi would regret it, he couldn't wait to get the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, so he bit his finger directly, then tore off a piece of his clothes, used blood as ink and cloth as paper, and immediately wrote the pill formula to Shen Qiqi.
Shen Qiqi took it and said, "Thank you, Immortal Venerable, for the recipe."
Taiqing Immortal Venerable waved his hand: "No thanks, no thanks, it's my duty."
——If you accept my recipe and receive my teachings, it is equivalent to using facts to confirm the title of master and disciple between you and me, hahahaha!
——Oh, by the way, there is still one gift missing!
Taiqing Immortal Venerable quickly called out his treasure.
The small cauldron is the size of a palm. It is pitch black with a bulging belly and two small iron ears on each side. It exudes a strong spiritual energy.
It was his alchemy artifact: the black bronze cauldron.
Taiqing Immortal Venerable: "This is the bronze tripod I use when refining pills. Because you have been with me for a long time, you have developed spiritual consciousness. If you use this furnace to help you refine pills for the first time, your chances of success will be greater."
Shen Qiqi had seen this thing before. On the day of the apprenticeship ceremony when she first entered the sect, Taiqing Immortal Venerable took this thing out and said that as long as she accepted him as her master, he would give her the rare alchemy furnace in the world.
Shen Qiqi still remembers this.
Seeing that Taiqing Immortal Venerable took out the Xuantong Ding again, Shen Qiqi suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Taiqing Xianzun, who had been closely monitoring her mood changes, saw her frowning and looking thoughtful. Alarm bells immediately rang in his heart, and he hurriedly urged, "Curing illnesses and saving lives is like fighting a war. Speed is of the essence. Don't waste time. I'll lend you the alchemy room. Go and make the elixir quickly. If you delay any longer, your father will be dead."
When Shen Qiqi heard this, she immediately stopped thinking about what was wrong and replied "yes". She quickly took the pill formula in one hand and the black copper tripod in the other and went to the alchemy room.
At this time, outside the door, Xie Beiming, Jiang Xiyan, and Qiu Changfeng were still guarding outside.
Seeing Shen Qiqi open the door and come out, the three of them looked at her.
Xie Beiming was the first to step forward. He immediately looked at Shen Qiqi's face. Seeing that she was relatively stable, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Qiqi, how is Uncle Shen doing now?"
Shen Qiqi briefly told him the situation, including that she would personally refine the detoxification pill for her father under the guidance of Taiqing Immortal Venerable.
She was confused by the situation, and her only thought was about helping her father detoxify, so she didn't see through the Taiqing Immortal Venerable's little plan at the first time.
But Xie Beiming was such a smart person. After hearing what Shen Qiqi said, he immediately saw through the Taiqing Immortal Venerable's ulterior motives.
