What Kind of Fate Was This?
Lu Qing'an stared at Dao of Alchemy Master and said, "So, there's less than a 10% chance that the old man will recover?"
Dao of Alchemy Master nodded. "Even if I say one-tenth, that would be only if I exhausted all my means and used my strongest medical skills. He was really unlucky; two incidents happened in quick succession. If more time had passed and he had recuperated for decades, I might have been able to save him if he encountered the same situation again. But now..."
Before Dao of Alchemy Master could finish speaking, Lu Qing'an decisively said, "He most likely knows where a Divine Crystal Divine Crystal, much larger than the one we obtained last time, is located. In other words, if you can heal him, we have a very high chance of obtaining another enormous Divine Crystal."
The words Dao of Alchemy Master was about to say suddenly felt like scalding hot rocks stuck in his throat. He swallowed hard several times before managing to swallow the words back down.
"Can you finish your sentences earlier next time?! If you keep talking like that, I think I have a 30% chance of curing this old man!"
He held up three fingers, and as he said this, he gritted his teeth, as if he were about to sacrifice something.
Lu Qing'an was speechless.
I knew this guy was holding back!
"Is there really only a 30% chance of curing it? Should I help you think about it and see if we can increase the probability?" Lu Qing'an asked.
"It's no use thinking about it now! It really is only 30%! And I need to use something, hey, that's a treasure I've been collecting for a long time! Once I use it, it's gone!" Dao of Alchemy Master's face was full of conflict, and only the thought that he might obtain a huge Divine Crystal as a result could suppress his conflict.
He was so hardworking, but Lu Qing'an wouldn't give him Divine Crystal the size of a goose egg, so he was going to throw a tantrum and curse on the ground.
Seeing Dao of Alchemy Master's state, Lu Qing'an knew he couldn't increase the chances of success any further, and said, "Tell me, what do you need to prepare? Curing this old man will benefit both of us."
"Well, let's discuss this before the treatment!" Dao of Alchemy Master rubbed his palms together and approached, no longer speaking in public, but instead transmitting his voice to Lu Qing'an.
What are we discussing?
"Hehe, naturally we're discussing how many Divine Crystal you'll give me this time if we actually obtain them."
How many do you want?
"Not much, I want ten percent!"
Lu Qing'an frowned slightly.
"Don't frown, okay, okay, I'll take the loss! Half less! No less!" Dao of Alchemy Master pursed his lips, making his expression serious and firm, giving Lu Qing'an the impression that if it were any less, he would roll on the ground in protest.
Lu Qing'an transmitted his voice, "Okay."
"Haha! Good! It's settled then!" Dao of Alchemy Master chuckled. Although he wasn't sure if he could heal the Saber God, he was lucky and actually succeeded.
Judging from the things the Saber God has been hiding, and from what Lu Qing'an just said, the secret the Saber God is hiding is definitely not simple. If it is really related to the Divine Crystal, this Divine Crystal must be no smaller than the last one!
One-twentieth of that should still be bigger than the Divine Crystal he got last time!
"So, what kind of potion do you need this time? Do you need our help to prepare it?" Lu Qing'an asked.
Dao of Alchemy Master said, "We still need that Primordial Heart-Returning Vine Primordial Heart-Returning Vine! Ideally, it should be even older than the last one, as that would increase the chances of success! If we had a Primordial Heart-Returning Vine that was hundreds of millions of years old, that would be perfect! I would have a 50% chance of curing this old man!!"
Lu Qing'an fell silent.
He had carefully examined Wu Ciren's herb field last time, and there was no trace of the Primordial Heart-Returning Vine!
I wanted to get another one, but they were all gone!
Lu Qing'an looked at Xue Tianfei: "Did you get any news from your last bounty offer?"
Xue Tianfei shook her head and said with a wry smile, "No."
Lu Qing'an, desperate as a last resort, looked at the others present, especially glancing at the Nether Bone Dragon and the others.
It's hard to say whether they've met by chance.
The Nether Bone Dragon all shook their heads.
They'd never even heard of such a magical potion!
"It seems I have no choice but to go find Wu Ciren again," Lu Qing'an thought to herself.
Wu Ciren said that he encountered the Primordial Heart-Returning Vine somewhere and picked it back. Perhaps there are still Primordial Heart-Returning Vine in that area.
Go ask Wu Ciren and see if you can find another Primordial Heart-Returning Vine in that area.
"Little Xue, continue to have the Chamber of Commerce post the reward notice. I'm going to the Demon Nether Cultivation-Devouring Abyss again." Lu Qing'an glanced at Xue Tianfei and gave her a smile as he instructed her.
When Xue Tianfei heard Lu Qing'an finally address her Little Xue, her beautiful eyes lit up, and she quickly nodded, "Okay!"
Xiao Qingyi and the others were speechless at the sight of the two.
We're watching from the sidelines!
This dog food is disgusting, ugh, I can't even look at it!
Lu Qing'an wasted no time. After instructing Xiao Qingyi and the others to keep an eye on the Saber God, he shattered the void and disappeared.
Xue Tianfei wisely refrained from following, since Lu Qing'an would need to expend some of his cultivation to maintain her cultivation level once inside the Cultivation-Devouring Water.
She didn't want him to waste his cultivation points on her anymore.
The deepest part of the Demon Nether Cultivation-Devouring Abyss.
Inside the pagoda.
Wu Ciren sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, refining the Divine Crystal.
"Eh, is the refining speed this slow?" She suddenly sighed and opened her eyes.
After Lu Qing'an left last time, she had been thinking about one thing.
Should we be born?
I'm no longer content with just cultivating passively; I'll find a way to obtain more Divine Crystal to improve myself.
Otherwise, if things continue like this, problems will inevitably arise sooner or later.
After thinking about it for a long time, she finally understood.
If it doesn't come into the world, the probability of problems arising in the future is extremely high!
Ultimately, she decided to emerge into the world, but she needed to first Divine Crystal within her body to increase her strength. And, most importantly, she needed to find a way to leverage Lu Qing'an Lu Qing'an's strength and cooperate with Lu Qing'an to ensure his protection.
She also considered a way to cooperate.
However, after refining it for several days, she discovered that the Divine Crystal was too slow!
"I wonder if there's a faster refining method. I should have asked him last time. Or should I go find him?"
"No, no, it's too dangerous outside. Even a powerhouse like the Saber God almost perished. Although my strength has improved somewhat, I'm unlucky enough to have been targeted by that mysterious organization. That would be terrible!"
"The more I think about it, the more uneasy I feel. Even if I refine this Divine Crystal, my strength still can't compare to the Saber God. What if I encounter villains on my way to find him... Sigh! If only he could come back again! But that's unlikely, he might never come here again in his lifetime, unless, of course, my fate with him is extremely..."
Just as she thought of this, the array outside was suddenly struck.
"Fellow Daoist, please activate the formation."
Upon hearing this voice, Wu Ciren was stunned, as if struck by lightning.
What the heck?!
Do I now possess the ability to manifest Dharma through recitation?!
This crystal is so powerful?!
"Or did I hear wrong? I've been thinking about him coming back lately, and I'm hallucinating?"
Thinking this to herself, she quickly extended her Divine Sense and went outside to investigate.
When she saw that Lu Qing'an was indeed standing outside the formation, she fell silent.
Amazing!!!
What a coincidence!!!
