59: I'm the kind of person who does everything quickly!
Seeing that Lin You was about to perform Alchemy.
Li Qianlong, who was bruised and swollen nearby, also panicked.
He was truly afraid of being beaten!
How could this pill be so easy to refine? He had only just started after twenty years of study.
He could barely refine it independently.
This guy clearly wasn't mentally stable; if the Alchemy failed later.
Wouldn't he take his frustration out on him?
Thinking of this,
cold sweat couldn't help but bead on Li Qianlong's forehead.
“Brother...”
“It's just the profound fire pill...”
“No problem, no problem.”
“If you let me go, I'll send you a basketful later. You can have as many as you want.”
“This pill... can we please not refine it?”
Li Qianlong forced a smile that looked worse than crying.
Compared to Uncle Zhao's concern, he simply didn't want to be beaten anymore.
What exactly was this lunatic's cultivation level?
Why was it that he, at the Peak of the True Elixir Realm, had no ability to fight back whatsoever!
Lin You looked left and right, holding the Pill Formula.
After confirming that he recognized every word on it,
he turned and patted his chest, addressing Uncle Zhao.
“Uncle.”
“Leave it to me, rest assured!”
“The Divine Pill Pavilion is just using the profound fire pill to threaten you.”
“I'll refine it for Ling'er!”
Uncle Zhao looked at Lin You's confident expression and couldn't bring himself to say anything discouraging.
Alchemy...
What if his daughter was poisoned? “Can... can this really work?”
Uncle Zhao asked uncertainly.
Zhao Linger, however, was carefree: “Let him refine it. Even if it's poison, I'll eat it.”
“Divine Pill Pavilion!”
“Hmph, as long as Lin You succeeds, our Zhao Family will go and flatten them for him!”
Zhao Linger's eyes were filled with killing intent. Although she hadn't experienced the ways of the world,
she knew her own limits.
The Zhao Family couldn't deal with the Divine Pill Pavilion, but Lin You and the Lin Family could.
Especially when she saw Lin You brutally beat Li Qianlong, she felt a strange sense of happiness in her heart.
Seeing this,
Uncle Zhao didn't know what to say. He glanced at Li Qianlong in the corner.
A trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
“In that case... Esteemed Nephew, please give it a try.”
“I'll keep an eye on this fellow for you.”
“If you have any questions, feel free to ask him for answers. After everything is done...”
Uncle Zhao said, making a throat-slitting gesture.
Clearly, he intended to silence him permanently.
“Don't worry, Uncle.”
“I don't have any other special skills, except for one word when it comes to doing anything.”
“Fast!”
Having said that,
Lin You found a secret chamber and went inside without looking back.
A massive amount of Spiritual Plants were mobilized by his consciousness, orderly arrayed in the Void Realm.
The Pill Formula slowly floated.
A Pill Furnace suddenly appeared before his eyes.
“Use one color critical wheel!”
[Ding!]
[Usage successful!]
[Duration: One Day!]
As Lin You's voice fell, the pointer on the wheel began to turn slowly.
Finally, it stopped on the X200 multiplier grid.
[Ding!]
[Obtained 20,000 times Cultivation speed!]
Lin You took a deep breath.
He began to study the Pill Formula. A flow rate of time that only he could perceive filled the entire secret chamber.
The profound fire pill's grade was only High Grade of the Profound Tier.
It wasn't considered very high.
The talent required, if converted into Cultivation difficulty,
was roughly equivalent to the difficulty of the True Elixir Realm.
However, few people practiced Alchemy because it was too tedious and didn't offer much help in raising one's own cultivation level.
Therefore, those with talent who could also endure the boredom
were extremely rare!
Soon,
Lin You followed the instructions on the Pill Formula, slowly mobilizing the Spiritual Qi within his body.
He began to warm every Spiritual Plant, simultaneously using Spiritual Qi to generate fire and refine the spiritual liquid.
Outside the hall.
Li Qianlong was still slumped beneath the broken wall.
His face filled with terror, he begged the Zhao Family father and daughter before him for mercy.
“Spare my life.”
“I'll agree to anything you ask!”
“Alchemy... isn't it just Alchemy?”
“I'll teach you!”
“I guarantee that in less than ten years... no, three years!”
“The Zhao Family will be able to refine profound fire pills independently. How about that in exchange for my life?”
Zhao Linger kept her eyes tightly shut, completely ignoring him.
Uncle Zhao snorted coldly beside her, his gaze fixed on the secret chamber.
He knew Lin You's cultivation was profound, but even so, one couldn't casually wipe out a Family power.
Otherwise, they would definitely be held accountable by the Heavenly Patrol Envoy.
Since Lin You had already made his move, he would handle the aftermath.
Li Qianlong... must die!
Thinking this, Uncle Zhao immediately used Spiritual Qi to seal Li Qianlong's mouth.
He stood silently, waiting for the result of Lin You's Alchemy.
Just as they turned away.
A barely detectable fierce light flashed in Li Qianlong's eyes.
His broken arms were rubbing against his waist.
There...
A jade pendant was emitting a faint glow!
Li Qianlong, filled with killing intent, muttered to himself.
“Alchemy?”
“Ignorant zealot.”
“It took this old man twenty years just to barely refine one profound fire pill.”
“You think you can succeed just by holding a Pill Formula? Wouldn't that make everyone in my Divine Pill Pavilion an idiot?”
“Just wait... it won't be long before they come to save me...”
...Time passed minute by minute.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Uncle Zhao's expression grew heavier. The longer they delayed, the greater the risk of exposure.
At that time, the Zhao Family would face a storm of retaliation!
Li Qianlong, meanwhile, was secretly delighted.
Soon... soon!
Suddenly,
the secret chamber door was pushed open, and a figure walked out.
The moment he saw Lin You, Uncle Zhao immediately stepped forward and asked.
“Esteemed Nephew, how did it go?”
Lin You curled his lip and shook his head, saying: “It fell far short of my expectations. It's not ideal.”
Hearing him say this.
Unconcealed disappointment flashed in Uncle Zhao's eyes.
Li Qianlong quietly grinned in secret amusement.
Trying to perform Alchemy in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
What a joke.
No one in the entire Eighth-Rank Star Domain could achieve that!
“Fine then...”
“We can't blame you for this matter. If we must blame someone, blame my useless Zhao Family, blame me for being a useless father.”
“Unable to support my own daughter's Innate Supreme Yin Body.”
Uncle Zhao sighed deeply.
Suddenly,
Lin You turned his head. “Uncle, what are you talking about?”
Huh?
Uncle Zhao turned his head in confusion, only to see a crimson Medicinal Pill resting in Lin You's palm.
“This...”
“This is the profound fire pill!”
Uncle Zhao couldn't help but take several steps back.
Having dealt with the Divine Pill Pavilion for so many years, how could he not recognize this item?
“Mmm... barely,” Lin You nodded.
Li Qianlong's eyes nearly popped out of his head.
Holy crap!
He strained his neck, trying to get closer and see more clearly.
“The profound fire pill!”
“You...”
“Impossible! In only the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, how could you possibly refine a profound fire pill!”
“Something that took me twenty years to achieve.”
“You... are you kidding me?!”
Li Qianlong roared out the last sentence, practically screaming.
He completely forgot the fact that he was still a captive.
He was clearly personally selected by the God Pill Pavilion Old Ancestor, who said he was the most talented Disciple since the Divine Pill Pavilion was established.
Even stronger than the Old Ancestor was in his youth.
But even so...
it still took him twenty years to be able to refine one profound fire pill.
The time it takes for an incense stick to burn...
Li Qianlong's body trembled wildly, filled with the agony of his worldview collapsing.
“Bastard!”
“You, you must have prepared the Medicinal Pill beforehand.”
“Isn't that right?”
“You're lying to me!”
“This Medicinal Pill wasn't refined by you at all!”
*Smack.*
Lin You swung his arm and delivered a resounding slap.
“What are you shouting about?!”
“Didn't you hear me say it didn't meet expectations?”
“I'm here to use you to test the medicine!”
