Xiao Zhen watched the elixir constantly twitching inside the small pill furnace. The instant he had lifted the lid, the little thing had nearly escaped!
Though the Bone-Melding Blood-Fusion Elixir had not reached the eighth grade, it was infinitely close to that threshold. Once formed, it already possessed a degree of intelligence.
Unwilling to be eaten, it would naturally try every possible way to escape.
If it had been an even higher Ninth-Grade Elixir, its intelligence would not have been inferior to that of an adult. To survive, it could even transform into a beautiful naked woman!
Xiao Zhen carefully examined the elixir, which radiated dense spiritual energy, before finally placing it into a specially made jade bottle.
When he stepped out of the tightly sealed Alchemy Room, Xiao Zhen found four pitch-black figures standing before him, nearly giving him a fright.
Once he came to his senses, he felt that the four African brothers looked somewhat familiar. Looking closer, weren't they his own teacher and the three Dou Zong experts from the other empires?

The four old men burst into laughter. Hai
