Everyone worked overtime, and soon another furnace was used to refine the second batch of pills.

"Elder Chen, the second batch of pills has been refined."

As soon as the voice came out, Elder Chen immediately ran over to check the ingredients of the pill.

He picked up a pill and quickly put it into his mouth, but after chewing it twice, his face became ugly again.

"It's still not enough. It's still far from this level. What's going on?"

He tapped his forehead with his index finger, trying to get some inspiration.

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, but immediately afterwards, he was overwhelmed by despair.

"It's over! It's over! It's completely over this time!"

After saying this, he slumped down on the ground, as if he had gone mad.

The other alchemists couldn't help but feel confused.

"What's going on? Why is Master Chen like this?"

Some other alchemists with more experience took out a pill and tasted it. They seemed to have understood and couldn't help shaking their heads.

"well!"

Everyone sighed deeply.

"It's because of lack of spiritual energy!"

“This pill recipe is from the ancient times. Although it is very effective in restraining blood butterflies, it was only suitable for refining in the ancient times.

In ancient times, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was quite abundant, so it was easier to refine elixirs.

But in this period, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is far inferior to that time. What's more, this is the Canglan Star Region, the border of the starry sky, and the spiritual energy is even thinner.

This resulted in insufficient spiritual energy being gathered during the elixir refining process, making it impossible to produce elixirs that were comparable to those from the ancient times!

If you can't refine a pill of that level, then naturally there's no way to cure the blood butterfly poison."

"Doesn't that mean that those who have been poisoned by the blood butterfly are doomed to die?"

"We are so incompetent! As the alchemists of the Xuanyuan Clan, we can only watch our fellow tribesmen being tortured by the poison and do nothing."

A deep sense of self-blame weighed on everyone's heart.

After a short while, an alchemist couldn't help but speak:

"Elder Chen, what should we do now? Young Master Ning is still waiting for our good news."

Elder Chen sighed and got up from the ground.

"At this point, there is no other way. I will go there in person and explain. After all, this matter is caused by my incompetence!"

"Elder Chen."

Everyone was speechless and didn't know what to say.

But at this moment, one of them suddenly spoke:

"Hey, who made this pot of medicine?"

Everyone looked over and saw a pot of dull-looking medicine pills.

"Why is this pill so dull? Has it become a useless pill?"

But a master in the crowd vaguely sensed something unusual, and he stepped forward and said, "It's strange, although this pill has no luster at all, it is so regular and round. According to normal logic, it shouldn't have no luster at all!"

After saying that, he picked up a pill and took a bite. The next second, a golden light mixed with extremely strong spiritual energy gushed out of his mouth.

"Oh my goodness!"

He trembled with excitement and almost dropped the pill in his mouth.

"Brother Chen, come here quickly! Come here quickly!"

Master Chen immediately walked over quickly.

"What's going on?"

The alchemist pointed at the pot of elixir.

"The golden light is restrained, and the spiritual energy is condensed to the extreme! This is the best among the best divine pills!"

"How is this possible?"

Master Chen was horrified. He quickly picked up a pill and put it in his mouth. His eyes immediately lit up and he was so excited that he was speechless.

“This elixir is truly miraculous!

The alchemist who refined this level of elixir to such a degree that it surpassed its original grade must be one of the top few in the entire starry sky! Who is it?

Who made this elixir?"

Master Chen held up the pill in his hand and shouted loudly to everyone.

But no one stood up.

"Didn't you see who did it?"

Everyone shook their heads, and Master Chen couldn't help but wonder:

"This is really strange! How could this happen? Such a top-grade elixir would never appear here for no reason. Someone must have made it! How come we can't find that person?"

"Master Chen, what we should do right now is not to find out who made the pills, but to quickly send these pills to the hospital.

Those who have been poisoned are still waiting to be used."

"Yes, yes, yes, we should send the elixir out quickly. Quickly, put it in the elixir-preserving porcelain bottle. Quickly."

At the hospital, Ning Zhiyuan waited in the ward for a while before his haggard uncle Ning on the bed slowly opened his eyes.

"Uncle, you're awake."

Ning Zhiyuan immediately leaned forward, and Uncle Ning spoke in a weak voice:

"Don't come near me!"

"Uncle, I have asked Master Chen and the others to quickly develop a medicine that will definitely be able to cure you."

Uncle Ning chuckled and then shook his head.

"There's not much hope. In ancient times, the blood butterfly was also an extremely difficult poison to deal with, and it's difficult to completely eliminate it.

Although Master Chen is one of the most powerful alchemists in my clan, he may not be able to handle the terrifying poison from the ancient times.

There's a high chance that I won't make it this time.

However, you don't have to be too sad. My body and soul are dead, and the family can use my blood and soul in the family ancestral hall to revive me. "

Ning Zhiyuan felt quite sad.

Although what Second Uncle said was true, in reality, after being resurrected in that way, there would be huge losses in essence, blood, and soul, and there would be no future in the martial arts in this life.

"Uncle, please don't say that. No one knows what will happen until the last moment."

"What I want to talk to you about now is not this, Zhiyuan. You came here to gain experience. The most important thing is to train your character so that you can stand on your own in the future.

Promise me, if Master Chen hasn't finished making the elixir in two days at most, then you will take action to eliminate all the people who have been infected with the poison, leaving no one behind.

I know you are a good child and you certainly wouldn't have the heart to harm someone of your own race.

But for the good of the entire tribe, you have to make a choice.

If the blood butterflies are not removed, the Ning family in the Jiuzhou world will most likely be wiped out."

Ning Zhiyuan nodded solemnly. He knew that his second uncle's proposal was for his own good.

However, at this moment, several figures suddenly rushed in quickly.

"Mr. Ning, the pills are here."

Ning Zhiyuan was overjoyed.

"So fast? How's the effect?"

"Don't worry, we have already tried the pills before we came here, and some people outside have already taken them, and the effect is surprisingly good."

"Okay! Quick, give my second uncle one pill."

Master Chen immediately gave Ning Yichen another pill. The next second, a layer of golden light appeared on Ning Yichen's body.

The golden light scanned and soon caused Ning Yichen to spit out a mouthful of blood. Master Chen stretched out his palm, and the spiritual energy collected the blood, and then released flames to burn it. Soon there was a violent scream from inside, and then it turned into a ball of ashes.

As for Ning Yichen, he quickly regained his spirits and sat up from the hospital bed.

"I'm actually cured. Isn't the speed of this medicine too fast?"

He couldn't help but let out an exclamation of surprise.

Ning Zhiyuan also immediately bowed deeply to Master Chen.

"Thank you, Master Chen! This time it all depends on you. Otherwise, I really don't know what I would do."

Master Chen waved his hand.

"Mr. Ning, you have a big misunderstanding. The one who refined the elixir was not me, but someone else."

Ning Zhiyuan was stunned, and looked at his second uncle, wondering:

"How is this possible? There shouldn't be anyone in the Canglan Star Region who is stronger than you in alchemy, right?"

Master Chen shook his head again.

"Today, I have really broadened my horizons! In the past, people always said that there are always people better than you. I never believed it. I thought that in the entire starry sky, the only people who could refine pills stronger than me were the alchemists of the higher-ranked God Clan. Only those who could refine pills at that level could reach that level.

I didn't expect that someone would teach me a lesson today.

His level of alchemy is beyond even my reach.

No, that seems to be an insult to his level. I should say that I am not even worthy of carrying his shoes!"

"What!"

Ning Zhiyuan and Ning Yichen were horrified. They were already shocked enough when Master Chen said that the elixir was not made by him.

And now, Master Chen actually gave the other party such a high evaluation.

This is simply unbelievable! "Master Chen, who is this person? Can you introduce him to us?"

Master Chen shook his head.

"You ask me who he is? I don't know. Because I have never seen him.

We had already failed in refining the elixir, and I was even ready to come and apologize to Master Ning.

But unexpectedly, a pot of elixir suddenly appeared in our alchemy room. We don’t know who made it, let alone who put it there.”

Ning Yicheng thought deeply with a serious expression:

“Although Master Chen’s main focus is alchemy and his combat strength is not strong, you have practiced for hundreds of years and have reached the first level of the God-killing Realm.

Moreover, there are other alchemists in the alchemy room.

The other party was able to place the elixir there without you noticing, so I'm afraid his cultivation is not simple!"

Master Chen nodded.

“Yicheng is right. Not only is this person’s alchemy ability admirable, his cultivation is also unfathomable and terrifying to the extreme.

If possible, I really want to meet him!"

At this time, Ning Zhiyuan couldn't help but said slowly:

"What do you think? Could it be the Sword Immortal?"

One update, three thousand.
