The Resurrection Pill That Can Bring the Dead Back to Life!

Inside the Star Emperor Grand Hotel.

Xiao Jinchen sat cross-legged on the bed, holding the box he had snatched from Wang Yan.

The moment Xiao Jinchen opened the box, a fierce, malevolent aura surged out, accompanied by waves of resentment.

The Ice Empress, who had been lying beside him, was startled and sat up abruptly.

"Such a dense baleful aura." The Ice Empress stared at the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife in the box, saying with suspicion, "Jinchen, this doesn't look like a blade containing rich life force at all."

"When it was being auctioned, the auctioneer Qingya already mentioned that this carving knife was cursed." Xiao Jinchen's right palm ignited with flames, and he said with keen interest, "Then let's see if this curse is more ruthless, or if my Emperor Flame is!"

Xiao Jinchen used his soul power to suspend the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife in mid-air, then flicked his finger, and the Emperor Flame instantly engulfed it.

Under the scorching heat of the Emperor Flame, the carving knife trembled violently. A piercing, demonic sound clung to his mind like a persistent disease, and a strand of extreme, icy coldness accompanied by a terrifying, ferocious aura surged directly toward his mental sea.

However, Xiao Jinchen's expression remained indifferent; he did not even spare a sliver of mental power to defend himself. Ever since he had devoured the soul of the Ice-Fire Dragon Kings, his mental power had long since reached the realm of a Limit Douluo. A mere curse dared to show off before him? How overconfident!

As the temperature of the Emperor Flame continued to climb, the black mist on the surface of the carving knife dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

About ten minutes later, the last wisp of black mist on the surface of the knife was completely annihilated. The dark, gloomy light transformed into a pool of clear autumn water, devoid of any impurities.

The originally pitch-black blade transformed into a translucent, cyan-colored crystal. It felt warm and smooth to the touch, restrained and calm, with all traces of its ferocious aura completely gone.

"It's done!" Xiao Jinchen looked at the carving knife hovering before him and couldn't help but smile. The blade was as clear and flowing as cyan crystal, looking quite beautiful.

"Is... is this the true appearance of this blade?" The Ice Empress felt the powerful life force radiating from the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife and couldn't help but reach out to touch it.

"Yes. This is what the carving knife looks like after the curse has been removed." Xiao Jinchen nodded and said, "It should be called Life Gold now; that is its true name."

"Life Gold?" The Ice Empress stared at the purified carving knife, a flash of surprise crossing her orange-gold eyes. "So it is Life Gold! No wonder I felt it was somewhat familiar, I just couldn't recall it for a moment."

"Oh?" Xiao Jinchen said, somewhat surprised, "Bing'er, you actually recognize Life Gold."

According to the original story, the Ice Empress shouldn't have known what Life Gold was.

"Of course I recognize it." The Ice Empress nodded slightly and explained, "Back in the Far North Lands, Xue'er once told me that Life Gold is essentially a solid, purified form of life force. On the surface, it appears to be a metal, but in reality, it is condensed and solidified from pure life force."

"However, it is quite unexpected that such a supreme treasure would appear in the human world." The Ice Empress said with surprise, "Logically speaking, Life Gold should only be produced in the Lake of Life beneath the Star Dou Great Forest."

"Who cares how it came to the human world." Xiao Jinchen smiled lightly and said, "I intend to refine this Life Gold into a pill."

That's right, Xiao Jinchen did not plan to fuse with the Life Gold like Huo Yuhao did in the original story. He didn't care at all about the additional mental power and life force gained from fusion. He planned to refine the Life Gold directly into a pill—a pill capable of bringing the dead back to life: the Grade Six Resurrection Pill!

Do not underestimate this Resurrection Pill just because it is Grade Six; it is a pill that can bring the dead back to life! As long as there is a single breath left, consuming it will lead to an instantaneous recovery.

Just imagine, when you are locked in a life-and-death struggle with an evenly matched opponent and are on the verge of breathing your last, you suddenly pull out such a pill and return to full health. What kind of expression would your opponent have?

They would probably curse on the spot: "Damn your ancestors! The opponent is hacking! This is impossible! What the hell am I even fighting?"

Refining Life Gold into a pill brings far greater benefits than simply fusing it into the mental sea. After all, refining it into a pill is equivalent to gaining an extra life.

"Refining it into a pill? Jinchen, you can actually refine Life Gold into a pill?" The Ice Empress asked in astonishment.

"Of course I can." Xiao Jinchen laughed, "I will simply extract the life force from the Life Gold and combine it with other heavenly treasures."

After speaking, Xiao Jinchen's thoughts stirred. The Green Lotus Core Flame separated from the Emperor Flame and, in the blink of an eye, transformed into a medicine cauldron, hovering directly in mid-air.

Xiao Jinchen once again activated his sixth soul skill—Mental Field! He shrouded the entire Star Emperor Grand Hotel, then cast a strand of mental power to seal the room.

Although a Grade Six pill would not attract pill lightning like a Grade Seven one, at the moment of its formation, it would still cause the surrounding heaven and earth energy to surge violently, sending fierce ripples of energy spreading in all directions.

The reason Xiao Jinchen activated the Mental Field in advance was precisely to create a distraction, using this invisible barrier to disrupt external perception so that those attracted by the phenomenon could no longer lock onto the specific location of the pill.

Xiao Jinchen flicked his finger, and the flames of the Emperor Flame instantly surged into the cauldron, with scorching heat sweeping out from within.

Following that, he beckoned with his palm, and the Life Gold was tossed directly into the cauldron.

"Whoosh!"

The moment the Life Gold fell into the cauldron, it was engulfed by the terrifying flames of the Emperor Flame.

Once the Life Gold entered the cauldron, under the dual suppression of the Emperor Flame and his mental power, its pure life fluctuations were rapidly subdued.

"Sizzle!"

As the seven-colored Emperor Flame swirled, the Life Gold did not turn red; instead, it emitted a rich, emerald-green halo. Accompanied by a series of soft sounds, the layer of metal on the exterior of the Life Gold instantly turned into cyan smoke.

Life Gold appears to be a metal on the surface, but it is actually formed from solidified life force, and Xiao Jinchen intended to burn it down until only the purest life force remained.

In just a few breaths, the Life Gold melted like snow, transforming into a pool of emerald-green liquid.

Xiao Jinchen used his mental power to hold it steadily in the center of the flames. It rolled slowly like a mass of jade-colored mercury, and a rich, tangible aura of life surged out from the cauldron, making one feel incredibly refreshed in every limb and bone just by smelling it.

"That's about right." Xiao Jinchen muttered. He tapped his Storage Ring lightly, and various heavenly treasures containing rich life force floated into mid-air.

"Glazed Heart-Cleansing Lotus..."

"Withered Wood Spring Vine..."

"Jade Marrow Evergreen Vine..."

"Dew-Condensing Green Spirit Flower..."

"Nine-Turn Soul-Returning Grass..."

Xiao Jinchen looked at the heavenly treasures he had scavenged from the Ice-Fire Yin-Yang Well and couldn't help but smack his lips.

With a thought, the Glazed Heart-Cleansing Lotus, Withered Wood Spring Vine, and the other three heavenly treasures floated into the cauldron one by one.

The Emperor Flame instantly engulfed them, and the violent fire incinerated the Glazed Heart-Cleansing Lotus and the other four heavenly treasures into five clusters of crystalline medicinal liquid in an instant.

Under the control of his spiritual power, those five clusters of medicinal liquid merged with the emerald-green liquid of the Life Gold, transforming into an even more brilliant emerald orb of light.

As the liquid orb slowly shrank and condensed, about half an hour later, its surface began to harden, and the prototype of a pill with an uneven surface slowly took shape.

As the final trace of impurity was burned away, a dense vitality that made one's spirit tremble began to permeate the air.

A pill radiating a lustrous glow quietly took form, lying still at the bottom of the cauldron as if it contained endless life force.

The very moment the Resurrection Pill was successfully refined, waves of exceptionally dense energy rapidly formed, spreading out from the room and shooting straight into the clouds.
