Eternal Life by Daily Divination

Chapter 329 - 212: Astonishing Pill Arts, Bloodline Enhancement



“Daoist Li is absolutely right!”

Zhou Sheng was deeply worried.

The Cyan Bamboo Snake was so rare that no one in their group had brought the corresponding Antitoxic Pill.

And Zhou Shangshan had already been poisoned for more than five hours.

They had less than an hour left to treat him.

In such a short time, it was impossible for them to bring him back to Yellow Crane Immortal City.

“I heard there are two Daoists from the Xiao Family nearby who are skilled in alchemy. I’ve already sent my younger clan brother to find them, but I’m afraid it’s too late.”

Zhou Sheng calculated the time, his face etched with worry, and asked Li Chang’an,

“Daoist Li, you’re also an Alchemist. Can you refine the Antitoxic Pill?”

He knew the chances were slim.

That Antitoxic Pill was a Tier Two Top Grade Elixir, while Li Chang’an was only a Tier Two Middle Grade Alchemist.

Li Chang’an pondered for a moment.

“Two types of Antitoxic Pills are needed: one is the Profound Frost Pill, and the other is the Green Heart Clear Lotus Pill. I don’t have many of the materials on me. Do any of you?”

“We do! Please wait a moment, Daoist Li!”

Following the list of alchemy materials Li Chang’an provided, everyone quickly checked their Storage Pouches.

They each contributed some materials and barely managed to gather enough for two sets.

Jin Ming, standing to the side, hesitated for a moment before asking, “Daoist Li, are you confident?”

There were only two sets of materials in total.

If he failed, Zhou Shangshan would be completely beyond saving.

Just then, three streaks of light suddenly shot across the distant horizon, transforming into three figures.

One of them was the younger clan brother Zhou Sheng had sent to find help.

The other two were the Xiao Family Alchemists he had found.

The two were a brother and sister pair. Their strength was considerable, and both exuded the aura of the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment.

“It’s Daoist Xiao Yiyue and Daoist Xiao Haoran!”

“Daoist Xiao Yiyue is a Golden Core Seed of the Xiao Family! Her Alchemy Skill has reached Tier Two Top Grade!”

Seeing the two of them, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Sheng hurriedly shouted, “Daoist Xiao, please save my clan uncle!”

“Daoist Zhou, don’t be hasty.”

Xiao Yiyue slowly descended.

She wore a simple dress, her features were as elegant as a painting, and her skin was fairer than snow. She carried herself with the grace of a secluded orchid in an empty valley.

Beside her was her older brother, Xiao Haoran. He was also a Tier Two Alchemist, but his skills were only at the Tier Two Low Grade level.

Naturally, Zhou Sheng placed his hopes on Xiao Yiyue.

Xiao Yiyue stepped forward, extended a fair, jade-like hand, and lightly tapped Zhou Shangshan’s wound, drawing out a trace of poisoned blood.

“It is indeed the Cyan Bamboo Snake!”

“Daoist Xiao, are you confident?”

“This will be somewhat difficult…”

Xiao Yiyue’s fine brows furrowed slightly, her pretty face showing a hint of gravity.

Although she was a Tier Two Top Grade Alchemist, she hadn’t been promoted for long, and her success rate in refining Tier Two Top Grade Elixirs was not high.

Furthermore, both the Profound Frost Pill and the Green Heart Clear Lotus Pill were extremely difficult to refine.

She wasn’t very confident.

“I only have one set of alchemy materials here. Do you fellow Daoists have any more?”

“Yes!”

Zhou Sheng nodded and immediately looked toward Li Chang’an.

The two sets of materials they had gathered earlier were both in Li Chang’an’s hands.

After all, Li Chang’an was only a Tier Two Middle Grade Alchemist.

Comparatively, Zhou Sheng was more willing to trust Xiao Yiyue.

Li Chang’an understood what Zhou Sheng meant, but he could tell that this Xiao Yiyue had no confidence at all.

’This matter concerns Dahuang’s bloodline. I can’t back down.’

“I forgot to tell everyone, but I can already refine Tier Two Top Grade Elixirs.”

“What?”

Hearing this, everyone was astonished.

A Tier Two Top Grade Alchemist had reached the pinnacle of the Tier Two Alchemy Dao and could satisfy almost all the needs of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

An Alchemist of this tier held an extremely distinguished status, even within a Golden Core Influence, and would be treated with great respect even by Core Formation Cultivators.

They had known Li Chang’an for many years, understood his character, and knew he wouldn’t lie to them.

Xiao Yiyue looked at Li Chang’an, a flash of surprise also crossing her beautiful eyes.

“Daoist Li, what are your chances of successfully refining those two elixirs?”

“What are your chances, Daoist Xiao?”

Li Chang’an’s expression was calm as he answered her question with one of his own.

Xiao Yiyue gently shook her head and didn’t answer, simply because she didn’t have much faith in Li Chang’an.

However, she came from an Alchemy Family and was confident that her alchemy skills would not lose to a Loose Cultivator like Li Chang’an.

Her brother, Xiao Haoran, suddenly spoke up from beside her.

“Everyone, rest assured. With only one set of materials, my sister might not succeed. But since there are two more sets, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

Everyone understood what Xiao Haoran meant. The first attempt would be for practice, making the second one much more likely to succeed. The three sets of materials were more than enough for Xiao Yiyue to get her bearings.

But the same logic also applied to Li Chang’an.

Zhou Sheng looked between the two, suddenly in a difficult position, unsure of who to ask to perform the refining.

At that moment, Zhou Shangshan, who was lying to the side, suddenly spoke.

“Since both of you Daoists are Tier Two Top Grade Alchemists, why not each use one set of alchemy materials and give it a try? In any case, this old man doesn’t have much time left. Even if I make it back alive, I won’t live for more than a few years. There’s no need for either of you to feel any pressure.”

“Alright!”

Li Chang’an and Xiao Yiyue responded at almost the exact same time.

Seeing this, Zhou Sheng couldn’t say anything more and could only secretly hope for their success.

Next, both of them took out their Pill Furnaces, activated their Pill Fire, and began refining the Profound Frost Pill.

Everyone fell silent so as not to disturb the two of them.

Mo Wenyuan sent a secret Sound Transmission: “Daoist Jin, do you think they’ll succeed?”

“It’s hard to say!”

Jin Ming shook his head slightly.

“Daoist Li often comes to the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower to sell Elixir Pills, but in the past, he’s only ever sold Tier Two Middle Grade Elixirs. His Alchemy Skill has clearly only just broken through, so his success rate for refining Tier Two Top Grade Elixirs won’t be very high.”

“As for that Daoist Xiao, she comes from an Alchemy Family. Her success rate should be a bit higher…”

Jin Ming replied secretly.

The others present were also discussing among themselves via Sound Transmission.

Although they had a better relationship with Li Chang’an, almost all of them favored Xiao Yiyue to succeed.

The reputation of the Dan Valley Xiao Family was simply too great, and Xiao Yiyue, as the family’s Golden Core Seed, was exceptionally brilliant in both cultivation and the Alchemy Dao.
