It had indeed started, but Yang Zhen did not move. It was the Ghost Alchemist who moved.
The Ghost Alchemist had a gloomy expression and gave Yang Zhen a murderous look that showed mutual sympathy. The corners of his mouth raised and he carefully took out something that looked like a skull from his arms.
Yang Zhen was stunned: "Oh, this thing is quite rare."
"Skull furnace!"
Guan Guan exclaimed, startling the people around him. Even the Holy Lord of the Tianxue Holy Land was stunned for a moment and asked, "What is a skull furnace?"
Can you say that he is ignorant of something that the Holy Lord of Tianxue Holy Land has never heard of? Just like Guan Guan, even though she is a great master of alchemy, she can't answer such a simple question about the Eighteen Forging Methods. Different paths have different expertise. No matter how picky you are, you can't find fault with this kind of thing.
Guan Guan took a deep breath and said, "Ghost Alchemists often use living creatures to make pills, and their favorite furnace is the skull furnace. If I'm not mistaken, this skull should belong to a young boy. It was soaked with 360 kinds of blood and sweat. It's extremely evil, but it can be used to make the purest pills."
Everyone looked at the skull furnace in the hands of the ghost alchemist in doubt, with anger flashing on their faces: "This ghost alchemist is too evil, how can such an evil thing be able to refine the purest elixir? Where is justice?"
"Existence is reasonable!" Tianxue Saint Lord said in a deep voice: "I heard that the founder of the Ghost Pill Master has never done evil. Although his methods are horrifying, his inheritance is upright."
Guan Guan nodded with a strange look on his face, and said, "Indeed, the inheritance of ghost alchemists is mostly due to the bad reputations brought about by the descendants who went astray and committed countless sins."
"This is quite interesting. The Ghost Alchemist actually took out the skull furnace. What kind of elixir is he going to make?"
Saint Tianxue looked at the Ghost Alchemist with curiosity.
Guan Guan bit her lip, looked at Yang Zhen with worry, and suddenly her eyes widened.
Yang Zhen was actually half-lying on the alchemy table, watching the Ghost Alchemist fiddling with the skull furnace with great interest. He didn't look like he was here to compete. Instead, he looked like an admirer of the Ghost Alchemist, observing him making the elixir.
The Ghost Alchemist naturally noticed Yang Zhen’s strange behavior, snorted coldly, and ignored Yang Zhen.
Although the two can do whatever they want in alchemy, they cannot cross the middle line, otherwise they will be judged as losers and lose their dominant position.
Yang Zhen and Ghost Alchemist would never do such a thing which violates the rules.
So even though Yang Zhen behaved strangely, Ghost Alchemist did not have any worries at all. He just had to keep an eye on the fluctuations of Yang Zhen's true energy.
Even if his true essence was fluctuating, Yang Zhen had not yet started refining the elixir, so he could not use it against the Ghost Alchemist.
The Ghost Alchemist held the skull furnace carefully. This thing would break if touched. It was very rare and difficult to refine. Unless it was an important occasion, the Ghost Alchemist would never take it out.
Seeing that Yang Zhen still looked curious, the Ghost Alchemist smiled while holding the skull furnace. His smile was meaningful and full of fighting spirit.
With the skull furnace in hand, the Ghost Alchemist is sure to win unless something unexpected happens.
But gradually, the expression on Ghost Alchemist's face became solemn. Yang Zhen didn't move, just looked at him with a smile, which made him feel confused.
The Ghost Alchemist stared at Yang Zhen intently. The more confused he was, the more alert he became towards Yang Zhen. Since the two met, their open and covert struggles had never stopped.
Now Yang Zhen looks harmless, but it is this very harmlessness that makes Ghost Alchemist even more nervous. He dares not be careless at all. He pays close attention to Yang Zhen's every move and almost every breath.
After a long time, seeing that Yang Zhen was reluctant to take action, the Ghost Alchemist sneered and turned around.
"ah!"
A loud scream came out of nowhere, startling everyone who was looking nervous.
The Ghost Alchemist's hands trembled, and the skull furnace flew out of his hands in an instant.
Seeing the skull furnace draw an arc and fall to the ground, Ghost Alchemist rushed over and caught the skull furnace, holding it tightly in his arms, and turned to Yang Zhen and yelled, "What are you doing?"
Yang Zhen coughed and said with an embarrassed look: "My throat is a little uncomfortable, clearing my throat, babbling, cough, I hope I didn't disturb you, hey, why did you stop, keep going, it's quite exciting."
"You bastard, you..."
The Ghost Alchemist was so angry that his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
The importance of this skull furnace is even deeper than this trip to the ancient ruins.
Even the Ghost Alchemist himself couldn't imagine what the world would look like if he accidentally destroyed the skull furnace.
Yang Zhen... this bastard actually scares people? Everyone was wondering how Yang Zhen would deal with the Ghost Pill Master. No one expected that Yang Zhen would actually... actually scare people by yelling like a mortal child playing.
This, this, this... Is this Yang really poisonous? What's even more surprising is that this method is really effective. Look at the ghost pill master's appearance, he is almost scared silly!
“Hahahahahaha…” The little fat guy burst out laughing first, pointing at the Ghost Alchemist and said, “This old guy is too timid. He was scared like this by a sound like “ah”. Holy shit, I’m laughing so hard.”
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
The others couldn't help laughing as well. Seeing the Ghost Alchemist's embarrassed look, they all burst out laughing.
From the moment Yang Zhen appeared, the aura of the Ghost Alchemy Master collapsed, and the oppression and terror that the Ghost Alchemy Master had inflicted on everyone due to his identity in recent days also disappeared.
It collapsed. The whole character collapsed.
Everyone looked at the Ghost Alchemist with a suppressed smile, a vicious and evil character who would do anything to achieve his goal, fumbling with the bone furnace. This scene was probably something that everyone would never forget for the rest of their lives.
The Ghost Alchemist finally caught the skull furnace and glared at Yang Zhen in frustration. His expression was gloomy and murderous. After a long time, he took a deep breath and turned away.
"ah!"
Yang Zhen shouted again, and at the same time, he stomped heavily on the ground, muttering to himself: "Damn, there are bugs."
The Ghost Alchemist shuddered, turned around and yelled at Yang Zhen: "Are you sick?"
It was obvious that the Ghost Alchemist was so angry that he almost dropped his beloved skull furnace. His anger and humiliation can be imagined.
Everyone felt the evil aura coming from the Ghost Alchemist Master, and they all remained silent, staring with their eyes wide open, puffing their cheeks, and trying hard to hold back their laughter, fearing that the Ghost Alchemist Master would get angry and cause harm to innocent people.
"I just stepped on a bug, what's it got to do with you?" Yang Zhen half-lay on the alchemy table and blinked at the ghost alchemist.
After hearing Yang Zhen's answer, everyone couldn't hold back their laughter any more. Almost everyone in the audience burst out laughing. Looking at the confused Ghost Alchemist, they laughed so hard that their stomachs hurt.
The little fat boy simply sat on the ground, laughing so hard that tears came out.
"This Yang Zhen... This Yang Zhen is simply poisonous. There's no need to compete with him. He can anger Ghost Alchemist to death with just one word."
Everyone who had dealt with Yang Zhen looked at him in confusion, speechless.
At this moment, even those who were not interested in this competition became excited.
Yang Zhen is so bad! (End of this chapter)
