Brother, please stop practicing. You are really not cut out for it.

These are all Spirit Medicines, yet they’ve been refined into this monstrous state.

If he were to add poison, Heaven knows if the other party would refine a poison that would make him Ascend on the spot and die instantly.

Shi Xiaotian never expected that he, who had never asked for help in his life, would open his mouth for the first time to ask someone not to perform Alchemy.

However, Zhong Qing turned a deaf ear to his plea.

He manipulated the Spirit Materials, weighing the dosages.

Everything was controlled to a high standard.

That focused expression, those devoted eyes, a series of fluid movements.

Shi Xiaotian watched, trembling with fear.

Past experience showed that the more Zhong Qing was like this, the more potent the Medicinal Pills he refined tended to be!

“You have no talent for Alchemy at all!”

“Leaving aside everything else, just your method of extracting Spirit Medicine liquid with spiritual power has thirty-seven errors.”

He was on the verge of collapse.

His voice was hoarse, his tone urgent, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Finally, he even went so far as to become an Incarnation of a Great Master, guiding Zhong Qing in Alchemy from the side.

“Blood Spirit Flower is overbearing in its medicinal properties, carrying the power of extreme heat and scorching sun, while Winter Grass is soft and feminine, exhibiting extreme Yin and chilling cold.”

“Individually, both are remarkably effective in tempering the Physical Body and Divine Soul, but their attributes differ, and once merged, they will produce potent toxins.”

“You must add Five Elements Spirit Medicines of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.”

“Only by balancing the Five Elements and constructing a Five Elements fusion can you activate the medicinal properties of these Spirit Medicines.”

It must be said that Shi Xiaotian was indeed worthy of being an Elder of a Holy Land and a renowned Alchemist in the Eastern Region.

When giving guidance, he spoke eloquently.

He directly addressed the core Origin of the problem.

This gave Zhong Qing a sudden enlightenment, a feeling of clarity.

He humbly listened to Shi Xiaotian’s guidance.

He methodically refined his self-created Myriad Spirit Pill.

However, in the end, the finished product was still not ideal.

At least its appearance looked no different from before.

But after all, it was a finished product refined under the guidance of an Alchemy Great Master.

Its medicinal properties were still worth anticipating.

After all, one cannot judge a book by its cover, and this saying also applies to Medicinal Pills.

“Eat it!”

“You don’t need me to feed you, do you?”

Zhong Qing placed the Medicinal Pill in front of Shi Xiaotian.

The latter’s expression kept changing.

Although he had guided the entire process of refining the Medicinal Pill, it had to be said that Zhong Qing’s talent was shockingly bad.

Even under his full guidance, the other party still made hundreds of major Alchemy taboos.

It’s no exaggeration to say that with this Alchemy technique, even a dog would be better than him.

And in Alchemy, a tiny mistake can significantly reduce the Medicinal Pill’s potency, or even cause its properties to reverse.

How could he dare to eat the Pill Zhong Qing had refined?

Seeing that he was about to be force-fed, Shi Xiaotian completely lost his composure.

“I was wrong!”

“I shouldn’t have troubled you.”

“Tell me what Pill you want, and I’ll give it to you, alright?”

“I’ll help you refine Medicinal Pills, a hundred furnaces, a thousand furnaces, ten thousand furnaces, is that alright?”

Clearly, the Medicinal Pills refined by Zhong Qing were too terrifying in their power.

They filled Shi Xiaotian with a lingering fear and a sense of dread that made his hair stand on end.

Zhong Qing shook his head.

“You don’t understand, what I’m refining isn’t a Medicinal Pill.”

“What I’m refining is my passion for Medicinal Pills!”

What the hell is passion!

Just refine the Medicinal Pills, what’s the point of talking about this stuff?

Shi Xiaotian complained wildly in his heart.

However, the next moment, his pupils contracted.

Because he was once again violently force-fed by Zhong Qing.

This time, he only felt his insides churning.

Bouts of dizziness and blurred vision came one after another.

Inside his Physical Body, it was as if thousands of ants were tearing at him.

In his Divine Soul, it was as if a raging fire was burning.

The medicinal properties of this Medicinal Pill were too terrifying.

Shi Xiaotian only felt as if he was enduring the most terrifying torture in the world.

His spirit and Physical Body suffered a double blow.

The burning, tearing pain made his entire body convulse continuously, and his veins bulged.

At this moment, Zhong Qing was meticulously recording the changes in his body on a small notebook.

The Medicinal Pill not achieving the desired effect made him a little upset.

But he firmly believed that where there’s a will, there’s a way.

One or two failures were nothing significant.

As long as he persevered, he would always succeed!

Zhong Qing truly loved Alchemy.

The wonderful sparks produced by the collision of different medicinal properties intertwined were intoxicating.

And when a Medicinal Pill took shape in his hands, there was always an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.

Although the result of this formation was not satisfactory, labor would always yield rewards.

With persistence, there would always be a satisfactory output, wouldn’t there?

With this belief, Zhong Qing once again began a new round of Medicinal Pill refinement.

Shi Xiaotian, who was convulsing, saw this scene and tears of regret flowed from his eyes.

“I’m so foolish!”

“Truly!”

“Why did I bother provoking this bane!”

His proud strength completely lost its effect at this moment, and his powerful identity and background were completely disregarded by the other party.

He felt like a pitiful little wife being cruelly tormented.

And not just once or twice, but a lifetime of imprisonment and torment.

A wave of despair filled his heart, and Shi Xiaotian felt that his future life was utterly dark.

“No, I cannot give up like this!”

Just as the pain was about to tear at his sanity and despair was about to engulf him entirely, a flash of light streaked across Shi Xiaotian’s mind.

He suddenly remembered that many years ago, when playing chess with an old friend, he had won a Magic Treasure from him.

Its name was the Boundary-Breaking Communication Talisman!

This Communication Talisman was unlike ordinary Communication Talismans; it could break through all barriers to transmit messages across space, and it could also do so silently.

“As long as I send back the news that I am imprisoned here, with my friendship with Old Bai, he will surely find a way to save me.”

“It’s even very possible that he will bring the Sect’s higher-ups to rescue me.”

“Once the Sect’s higher-ups arrive, not only will I be rescued, but I will also be able to wipe away my past humiliation.”

At the thought of this, Shi Xiaotian’s eyes turned red.

The seed of revenge, like wild grass, nourished and grew wildly in his heart.

…

The bright moon hung in the sky, and the stars were embedded like jewels.

Shi Xiaotian, who had been ‘poisoned’ all day, finally had a chance to breathe.

Under the moonlight, he pulled out a Communication Talisman from his Storage Pouch and wrote a plea for help on it.

Seeing that no one was around, he directly activated the Communication Talisman with the faint spiritual power remaining in his body.

A streak of light pierced the sky.

Watching the message transmit and finally disappear into the horizon, Shi Xiaotian let out a nervous, crazed laugh.

“You just wait, the humiliation and torture you inflicted on me today, I will repay a thousandfold in the future.”

He muttered in a low voice, his face ferocious, his laughter like that of a yaksha or an evil spirit.

“What good news did you encounter to be laughing so happily?”

“Come, first eat this Medicinal Pill.”

However, the appearance of a voice made Shi Xiaotian’s laughter abruptly cease.

He saw Zhong Qing approaching him step by step, holding a Medicinal Pill.

The other party clearly had an ethereal, otherworldly appearance, but at this moment, in Shi Xiaotian’s eyes, he was terrifying.

His face instantly turned green.

Seriously, is this person a devil?

Not content with tormenting him during the day, he wouldn’t let him go at night either.

“No…”

In the night sky, a heart-wrenching scream soon echoed.
