Dou Di Blood Exposed
The Void Devouring Flame flew to Hun Xuzi and Li Changqing. There was something strange in his eyes when he looked at Li Changqing. He always felt that there was something strange about Li Changqing.
After glancing at Li Changqing, Void Devouring Flame looked at Hun Xuzi: "Is this the Ninth-Rank Alchemist you favored? I sense something strange about his aura?"
Hun Xuzi respectfully replied, "Reporting to Lord Void, his name is Li Changqing, and he is indeed the Ninth-Rank Alchemist I have my eye on."
"As for your feeling that he is strange, perhaps it's because he refined a Heavenly Flames."
As he spoke, Hun Xuzi gave Li Changqing a look.
Li Changqing understood, opened his palm, and Yin-Yang Flame rose up.
To prevent the Void Devouring Flame from noticing anything amiss, Li Changqing deliberately suppressed the power of the Yin-Yang Flame.
After all, the power of the Yin-Yang Flame is now probably comparable to that of the Void Devouring Flame.
The Void Devouring Flame's gaze kept shifting between the Yin-Yang Flame and Li Changqing. He always felt that there was something strange about the Yin-Yang Flame, but he couldn't put his finger on why.
Shaking his head, Void Devouring Flame stopped paying attention to Li Changqing.
After all, he could tell Li Changqing's cultivation level at a glance. He was just a One-Star Dou Sheng. Even if he had any secrets or harbored malicious intentions, he couldn't cause any trouble in front of him.
Hun Xuzi asked, "How is the clan leader?"
Void Devouring Flame shook his head, his voice tinged with worry, but Li Changqing detected a different meaning in it:
"The only good news is that we've suppressed the energy surge of the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill -Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill, but forcing it out will probably be difficult."
Upon hearing this, Hun Xuzi was startled. "That Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill is inside the clan leader's body, how can it be refined into a finished pill?"
The Void Devouring Flame looked at the Hun Tiandi sitting cross-legged in the center of the plaza and said calmly, "This will have to wait until the clan leader has completely suppressed the energy of the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill before he can make a decision."
"Li Changqing, let's wait here for now and make plans after the clan leader wakes up," Hun Xuzi instructed.
"Yes, Senior Hun Xuzi." Li Changqing nodded slightly and found a place to sit cross-legged at the edge of the square.
As he watched Hun Tiandi struggling to suppress the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill in the center of the square, he pondered how to force Hun Tiandi to expel the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill from his body.
After thinking it over, it seems there's no really good solution.
After all, the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill is safest within the Hun Tiandi's body; no one can take it away.
Suddenly, Li Changqing remembered the drop of Dou Di Blood he had obtained from the Bodhi Ancient Tree.
"By the way, the Dou Di Blood was inadvertently exposed. After the Hun Tiandi finds out, to be on the safe side, he will probably force the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill out of his body and use the Dou Di Origin contained in that drop of Dou Di Blood to accelerate its Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill."
As for whether Hun Tiandi will swallow that drop of Dou Di Blood upon learning of this, will he?
Li Changqing believed that unless the Hun Tiandi was an idiot, he wouldn't do such a thing.
After all, the essence contained in that drop of Dou Di Blood was too rare. Once it entered the Hun Tiandi's body, most of it would probably be taken away by the Hun Tiandi's body, and probably less than half of it could be used to accelerate the maturation of the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.
Hun Tiandi is at the Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng, only one step away from becoming Dou Di.
The body's thirst for the Dou Di Origin can be described as almost instinctive.
Even though the Hun Tiandi tried his best to suppress his body's desires, it still happened.
This will inevitably affect the effectiveness of the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill, thereby impacting his chances of refining it and breaking through to the Dou Di Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.
Therefore, the optimal solution is to first force the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill out of the body, and then refine the Dou Di Origin contained in the Dou Di Blood into the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill to enhance its medicinal efficacy.
Moreover, Li Changqing's unintentional exposure of the existence of the Dou Di Blood can further dispel the Void Devouring Flame's doubts about him.
This led the Void Devouring Flame to believe that his earlier awareness of Li Changqing's unusual behavior stemmed from that drop of Dou Di Blood.
Furthermore, by passively exposing the existence of the Dou Di Blood, Hun Tiandi would not suspect that Li Changqing harbored malicious intentions.
However, if he were to voluntarily offer up the Dou Di Blood, it would likely arouse suspicion.
After all, Li Changqing was not a member of the Hun Clan, nor did he have any Hun Clan ties with them. His assistance in refining the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill Hun Clan merely a transaction.
Li Changqing, who possesses such a treasure, has no reason, and it is absolutely impossible, for him to voluntarily hand over the Dou Di Blood to the Hun Clan.
Thinking this, Li Changqing's mind sank into his Ring of Holding, where at its deepest part was a drop of Dou Di Blood, enveloped and sealed by Yin-Yang Flame.
Under Li Changqing's control, the Yin-Yang Flame enveloping the Dou Di Blood became extremely thin. Even the slightest external tremor would cause a trace of the Dou Di Blood's aura to leak out.
Even if it's just a trace, Hun Tiandi, with his Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng, could sense it instantly.
After doing all this, Li Changqing looked at the Hun Tiandi in the center of the square and quietly waited for the Hun Tiandi to completely suppress the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill before unleashing his aura and letting the aura of the Dou Di Blood leak out.
After waiting for two days, the Hun Tiandi's aura finally stabilized completely. The Hun Clan experts who had been assisting the Hun Tiandi in suppressing the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill also breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew their Dou Qi.
The Hun Tiandi slowly opened his eyes, golden light bursting forth from them. Then, he suddenly stood up, releasing a powerful aura.
The Hun Clan members all showed joy and said happily:
"The clan leader was already at the Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng, and his strength should have reached its limit, but now his aura is even stronger than before."
"Just consuming a fledgling Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill can bring such a significant improvement; if one could completely refine the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill, one could probably break through to the Dou Di directly."
"That's right. In this way, the Dou Di Bloodline of my Hun Clan can be reactivated."
"Those forces that attempt to obstruct the clan leader's advancement to Dou Di will be eliminated. At that time, my Hun Clan will truly be the strongest clan on the Dou Qi Continent, and the entire Dou Qi Continent will be under the control of my Hun Clan."
The moment that aura swept over Li Changqing, the Yin-Yang Flame containing the Dou Di Blood in his Ring of Holding was instantly shattered by that aura, and the aura of the Dou Di Blood leaked out.
Almost the instant the aura of the Dou Di Blood was leaked, it immediately attracted the attention of Hun Tiandi and Void Devouring Flame.
While the powerful members of the Hun Clan were rejoicing, the Hun Tiandi and the Void Devouring Flame stared intently at Li Changqing.
Li Changqing deliberately feigned panic at the leak of his secret and once again sealed off the aura of the Dou Di Blood.
But the Hun Tiandi and the Void Devouring Flame had somehow appeared before Li Changqing.
The two men continuously scanned Li Changqing's body with their Soul Force, trying to uncover Li Changqing secrets.
They failed to notice that Li Changqing had concealed his cultivation level. In the end, their gazes fell one after the other on the Ring of Holding on Li Changqing's finger.
Li Changqing feigned panic, quickly stood up, bowed to the Hun Tiandi and the Void Devouring Flame, and said in a trembling voice, "Li Changqing greets the Clan Chief and Lord Void."
To make his performance more convincing, Li Changqing subtly circulated his Dou Qi, pretending to be sweating profusely.
