...
Looking at these low-grade top-quality pills in front of her, Yu Xiyan suddenly felt a slight headache, and the scene before her eyes began to shift, subconsciously returning to the palace of the past.
"Honey, look! It's done!"
Shen Zhao carried a large plate of pills and ran excitedly to Yu Xiyan.
Before Shen Zhao could even boast about his alchemy achievements, Yu Xiyan frowned coldly and asked, "Shen Zhao, what did you just call me?"
"Call me your wife, look, wife..."
"How dare you! Shen Zhao, who gave you permission to call me by such intimate terms? You've been ignoring everything I say, haven't you?"
"Ah, I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I was too excited. Look, these pills."
"These are just low-grade pills. The Spirit Medicine Pavilion in the capital has plenty of them. Don't be complacent just because you've made some progress. That will only make me look down on you even more!"
"Your Majesty's rebuke is correct, but I must report to Your Majesty that if these elixirs were distributed to the frontier soldiers, their battles against the barbarians could avoid too many unnecessary casualties."
This also saves a significant amount of military spending each year, and the surplus pills can even be sold to various cultivators to increase the national treasury's revenue.
"Oh? Do you know how many pills the 500,000 Great Yin warriors on the frontier need?"
"I guarantee that I can provide 200,000 pills of first to third grade elixir to the frontier soldiers every year, which is enough to cope with any level of war."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiyan slowly walked to the plate and casually picked up a pill to examine it.
"A low-grade pill can actually be refined into a ninth-grade pill pattern?"
She was filled with surprise and used her spiritual sense to scan the hundreds of pills in the plate. They all had ninth-grade pill patterns.
"How many of these grade pills did you refine?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the first batch of refined pills contained 13,000 pills, all of which had ninth-grade pill patterns. The alchemist has verified that they are correct. Their efficacy is ten times that of ordinary pills of the same rank."
"Good! Shen Zhao, this time you have rendered a service to the Great Yin Dynasty. I have always been fair in rewarding and punishing. What do you want? I can grant you one reasonable request!"
"Then Your Majesty, can I open a general's mansion for you to train an elite division for our Great Yin and clear out the Eight Wastelands?"
"You mean to say that Dayin's army of millions of soldiers has no elite troops?"
"Your Majesty is overthinking it. I have simply enjoyed military strategy and tactics since I was a child, and I hope Your Majesty will give me a chance."
"Very well, I will grant your wish. However, don't expect much support from me for your general's mansion. How large it grows will depend entirely on your own abilities."
Furthermore, you must remember your place. Everything you possess belongs to me. If you dare to disobey me, I will not let you off easily.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, I am absolutely loyal to Your Majesty and will never have the slightest intention of disobeying you."
"Step back, I need to practice."
"Okay, I'll take my leave now!"
The memories faded away, and Yu Xiyan looked at the pill in her hand that was so familiar that it couldn't be more familiar, and couldn't help but hold it gently in her palm.
At this moment, she had vaguely guessed Liu Chengzhou's identity.
There is no alchemist in the world who can use such rare medicinal materials to refine a furnace of thousands of low-level pills in such a short time. It is even more impossible for an alchemist to study hard and refine low-level medicinal patterns to the ninth level.
Only that person, her husband, Shen Zhao, would have such talent and perseverance!
"How could I be so stupid? I should have realized yesterday in the hall that Liu Chengzhou's style is exactly the same as his, but why didn't he come to acknowledge me? Could it be..."
Yu Xiyan was stunned, because the two had never actually met before, so they did not know each other at this time, and he should not recognize her.
but……
Thinking about this, Yu Xiyan was at a loss. What reason should she give to hint to Shen Zhao?
...
While Ding Bu'er and Yu Xiyan were busy packing up the pills, Shen Zhao hurried along and arrived at the west gate entrance.
Looking at the barrier with its transparent air wall, Shen Zhao took a deep breath and then muttered to himself, "Sorry, but for the sake of business, I have no choice but to resort to this!"
After he finished speaking, he took deep breath and swung his fist, which hit the air wall with a "bang".
The next moment, the barrier shattered, and the entrance was directly destroyed by Shen Zhao.
Just as Shen Zhao was about to go to the next place, a stone that emitted a flash of light suddenly fell from mid-air.
"Um?"
Shen Zhao picked up the stone, brushed off the dust, and stared at it intently.
Suddenly, a powerful spiritual energy filled his whole body, causing the sea of qi in his body to boil faintly.
"This is……"
The next moment, the introduction about the stone appeared in my mind.
"Is this the crystal stone transformed from the Western White Tiger, one of the four ancient mythical beasts? It can stimulate the potential of the human body and is a fragment of the Chaos God and Demon Body!"
Holy crap!
Shen Zhao never expected that his accidental and unintentional action would lead him to obtain the Chaos God-Demon Body, the third-ranked of the Ten Great Sacred Bodies of the Primordial Era, which he had never obtained in his previous nine lifetimes.
In his previous life, he risked his life to obtain the Innate Dao Body for Yu Xiyan, but it only ranked fifth among the Ten Sacred Bodies. And this is a royal flush that he just gave you.
Thinking of this, Shen Zhao smiled and said, "Since fragments of the Chaos God and Demon Body can be obtained at the entrance, it seems that there should be corresponding fragments at the other three locations as well."
So, Shen Zhao immediately rushed towards the eastern entrance...
At this time, everyone went to the depths of the Fuxi Abyss Secret Realm to explore opportunities. How could there be anyone at the entrance?
After half a day, Shen Zhao broke through the entrance barriers to the east and north without breaking a sweat, and obtained fragments of the Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise.
Next is the southern entrance that you will enter.
However, Shen Zhao does not plan to destroy the southern barrier for the time being. After all, if the southern passage is destroyed in advance, everyone may not be able to get out. He must be cautious.
