Refining Pills for the First Time

In the current situation, everyone's attention is focused on True Person Qingyang.

Waiting for an answer.

After a long while, True Person Qingyang exhaled a breath of stale air, and a tear fell from the corner of his eye.

"This old man... is unworthy to be called Alchemist..."

True Person Qingyang wrote each word with tears of blood.

His face aged rapidly at a visible speed, and his expression was extremely dejected.

Only then did everyone notice that True Person Qingyang had indeed reached his twilight years.

He had been resting with his eyes closed, perhaps to preserve this last glimmer of hope.

The disciple looked sorrowful; he was the only one who spent every day with his ancestor and naturally knew his ancestor's condition.

Ten years ago, True Person Qingyang knew that his time was coming to an end.

So he took the Lifespan-Extending Pill and extended his lifespan.

Over the years, I have been searching for ways to prolong my life, but I never expected that the death energy in my body had accumulated to such a terrifying degree.

It can even affect the elixirs refined by True Person Qingyang.

They were all shrouded in a wisp of deathly aura.

Over the past decade, the karmic obstacles accumulated unnoticed have amounted to a considerable sum.

That's why True Person Qingyang couldn't accept it for a while.

At this moment, even that glimmer of hope has quietly slipped away, and it can no longer be held onto.

The disciple from the Longevity Hall supported his ancestor, tears streaming down his face.

Watching this scene unfold.

Everyone present was stunned.

Yan Emperor immediately ordered his men to take away the small rosewood box.

Take it as far as you can.

Dongfang Shao could hardly believe what he was seeing. His expression was not good. True Person Qingyang looked remorseful and lost.

This makes Dongfang Shao's sarcastic remarks earlier seem rather foolish.

This makes him seem dull.

Profound Yin Sect, the sect leader of the Xuan Yin Duan Feng, was even more astonished by Chen Ning's discerning eye.

Even True Person Qingyang, who had spent his entire life refining pills, was blinded by his own involvement and overlooked the crucial details of this elixir.

Unexpectedly, Sect Leader Chen saw right through him.

Such keen eyesight requires extremely profound alchemy skills to develop.

Doesn't this mean that his Dao of Alchemy skills are even higher than those of True Person Qingyang?

How is that possible?

However, True Person Qingyang's condition is not optimistic at the moment; he is barely breathing and only has one breath left.

The disciple from the Longevity Hall was at a loss for what to do.

The ancestor of the Lifespan-Extending Pill took it ten years ago. The pill had no Pill Formula; it was passed down from High Antiquity times.

Even the ancestor couldn't refine it.

For the past ten years, the ancestor has been trying to break through to the Dao of Alchemy Grandmaster Realm, hoping to refine a longevity-enhancing elixir. Unfortunately, it is too difficult to refine it out of thin air.

It's simply impossible to accomplish.

The apprentice wept uncontrollably.

Yan Emperor merely watched indifferently. The pill given to him by True Person Qingyang was almost Life-Seizer poison, and he was still filled with lingering fear.

If he had taken that Earth Spirit Pill just now, wouldn't he have been unable to achieve his great ambition?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Chen Ning again.

This newly appointed leader of the Dragon-Seeking Sect possessed such abilities, which truly surprised him.

Chen Ning also noticed Yan Emperor's gaze.

A thought suddenly occurred to him, and an idea came to mind.

He rose from his seat, approached True Person Qingyang, looked at the old man before him, and said calmly, "I will save your life, and from now on, the Longevity Hall will become an vassal of my Dragon-Seeking Sect. Are you willing?"

These simple words, falling into the ears of True Person Qingyang who was now barely clinging to life, were like a long-awaited rain after a drought.

He mustered his strength and nodded with difficulty.

Even ants try to survive, let alone True Person Qingyang.

The disciple was overjoyed and grabbed Chen Ning's sleeve, asking, "Can you really save my ancestor?"

"If you want him to live, then listen to me."

Chen Ning slapped the other person's hand away and ordered, "Prepare the medicine cauldron and the medicinal herbs I need. Don't tell me your ancestor, with such a illustrious reputation, doesn't carry any tools in his spatial bag when he goes out?"

Yes, yes.

The disciple immediately opened his spatial bag and summoned a pill-refining cauldron.

At this moment, everyone present was dumbfounded, staring intently at Chen Ning's figure.

What is Sect Leader Chen going to do?

"Looks like we'll be refining pills on the spot?"

"That's not the point. The point is, did you hear what he said? He said he could save True Person Qingyang's life!"

At this moment, several elders from the other two sects exclaimed in surprise.

I couldn't believe my ears.

Even Alchemist Master like True Person Qingyang is struggling to save himself, yet Sect Leader Chen is trying to save others through alchemy?

That's a bit too sensational!

Dongfang Shao revealed a mocking smile.

Isn't this Sect Leader Chen a bit too overconfident?

Just because you were lucky enough to see through True Person Qingyang's elixir, do you think you're an Alchemist Master too?

In the entire Spirit Province, there is only one Alchemist Master, Master True Person Qingyang.

A hint of doubt flickered in Yan Emperor's eyes as he gave Chen Ning a deep look.

Only Cang Yue's beautiful face maintained a trace of composure. Her master had created so many miracles that she was already somewhat prepared.

In fact, Chen Ning's move was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but rather something he had planned.

They are currently in the capital of the Great Yan Imperial Capital, which is considered the territory of the Yan Emperor, and Cang Yue is an undercover agent from the Great Yan Imperial Dynasty.

Even with a master-disciple relationship based on the Dao of Talismans, he couldn't guarantee that Yan Emperor wasn't harboring any schemes.

Therefore, some methods must be revealed.

It intimidated the Yan Emperor.

This made him afraid to act rashly.

Alchemy is secondary; what truly needs to be demonstrated is the ability to easily subdue the power of the Longevity Hall.

At this moment, the disciple of the Longevity Hall had already prepared all the necessary medicinal herbs as instructed by Chen Ning.

However, one key ingredient is still missing.

Heavenly Heart Lotus

Yan Emperor immediately understood and said, "The Imperial Palace has a reserve of Heavenly Heart Lotus. If we can save True Person Qingyang and protect an Alchemist Master from my Spirit Province, a single Heavenly Heart Lotus is nothing."

Soon, a servant brought the Heavenly Heart Lotus.

Chen Ning then began his first alchemy session.

He wanted to refine a first-grade elixir.

Life-Continuing Golden Pill.

In fact, Chen Ning could also refine the Lifespan-Extending Pill that True Person Qingyang took ten years ago.

However, this kind of elixir that breaks the rules of life and death can only be taken once, for the same type of elixir.

Now, it's useless to refine any more Lifespan-Extending Pill.

Therefore, Chen Ning chose another, more powerful Life-Continuing Golden Pill.

They came to save the dying True Person Qingyang.

It's because he has so many Pill Formulas.

Chen Ning arrived in front of the medicine cauldron, focused his mind and spirit, and began to release his Essence Power to drive the flames.

Then, the medicinal herbs are added in sequence.

Chen Ning stared intently at the churning flames in the medicine cauldron. With a flick of his finger, he threw a Heart-Concentrating Grass into the flames, which instantly turned into black ashes.

Chen Ning was taken aback.

The first time I refined pills, I didn't control the heat well.

However, one mistake did occur.

Fortunately, there was plenty of Heart-Concentrating Grass, which wasn't a particularly precious medicinal herb.

But this scene caused others to frown.

Does he really know how to make pills?

Dongfang Shao, in particular, couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Hahaha, Sect Leader Chen, do you want me to help you control the fire?"
