Rebirth of Devouring Dragon Emperor

Chapter 140 Are you an alchemist?
"This... can be used. Since it is a medicinal herb, it will be effective even if it is swallowed raw. However, compared to refining it into a pill, the medicinal effect that can be exerted by swallowing it directly is really too low."

The third elder sighed and said, "If the general medicinal pill can only exert 50% of its medicinal effect, if you swallow it directly, I'm afraid it will be difficult to absorb 10% of the medicinal effect of the medicinal material. So, it's a waste to eat it directly!"

"Besides, the evil spirits in these herbs are too strong. Those below the Xiantian realm are basically unable to dissolve them, so they simply cannot swallow them. Even for a Xiantian master, it would be extremely difficult to dissolve them. It is not worth spending time and energy on them."

"So, if there is no other way, these things...will just be wasted!"

As the third elder spoke, his eyes turned red again.

His face was full of heartache.

His own strength ranked far behind among the dozen or so elders of the Chu family, but he had a talent for alchemy, so he studied hard, and relying on a fragmentary book of alchemy that his family had obtained in his early years, he barely stepped into the threshold and became an indispensable backbone of the family.

As an alchemist, his love and sensitivity for medicinal materials far exceed that of ordinary people.

To him, alchemy materials are as important as his lover.

Now, seeing so many high-vintage medicinal herbs in front of me, but being unable to use them and being able to only watch them rot, the pain in my heart is indescribable.

It's like the woman you love most is right in front of you, but you can only watch her die. It's so painful, I can't even describe it.

"This……"

A group of Chu family members looked at each other anxiously.

The third elder, who was an alchemist, was very sad. Although they were not alchemists, they were not much better.

You know, these medicinal herbs now all belong to their Chu family!

If they can't make use of it, it's like their things are being lost, which is not pleasant for anyone.

"Apart from people with innate cultivation or above clearing the evil spirit and swallowing it alive, is there no other way?"

Chu Tianxiong looked at the third elder, his eyes full of expectation.

The third elder sighed and shook his head.

"All we can do now is to try our best to remove the evil spirit, and then I will start refining pills all the time, refining as many as I can."

He said, "Don't worry about whether it's a waste or not. To be honest, I have never tried to use such high-year medicinal materials to refine the two or three lowest-level pills that I know how to make."

The Third Elder was joking, but his smile seemed forced.

The other members of the Chu family couldn't laugh either.

The treasures are right before their eyes, but they can only watch them slip away. It would be strange if they could laugh.

"Oh, that's all it can do."

Chu Tianxiong was about to ask the Third Elder and the others to hurry up when he said this, but he suddenly thought of something, and then he suddenly turned around and looked at Ye Qing, and asked carefully: "That... Dragon God, where did you and Xiaoxian get so many herbs?"

"Besides, it looks like they just died. So this evil spirit... is it you who created it? Can you remove it?"

Chu Tianxiong was in a nervous mood, but there was hope on his face.

He finally figured this out.

These medicinal herbs were obviously in good condition before. The reason why they were contaminated with evil spirits was probably related to Ye Qing.

If it was done by Ye Qing, then it would be easy to deal with. I believe he has the ability to remove it.

Even if it wasn't done by Ye Qing, with Ye Qing's terrifying strength, he might be able to remove it.

He placed his hopes on Ye Qing and didn't care whether he offended anyone or not.

He would feel sad if so many good things were wasted!
"Although the evil spirits on these things do not belong to me, they can still be considered as caused by me."

Ye Qing nodded and said, "As for clearing it, that's easy."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly waved his right hand, and a powerful aura flew towards the two piles of herbs, instantly dissolving all the evil spirits in the herbs.

"Okay."

Ye Qing withdrew his hand and said.

The group of Chu family members were stunned.

They looked at Ye Qing, then at the two piles of herbs on the ground, not knowing what to say.

OK?
Just a wave of the hand?

How long did this take?

Less than a second!

This...will clear away all the evil spirits?

So simple, fast, easy and comfortable?
The third elder and Chu Tianxiong swallowed their saliva and went to check the herbs with trembling hands.

They had personally examined them one by one before, and were deeply impressed by the strong evil energy within the herbs.

Even for them, it feels tricky.

They estimated that it would take at least two to three hours to remove the evil spirit from a herb. Moreover, the cost would be enormous!

Therefore, Ye Qing's wave of his hand made them feel like they were being fooled.

It was hard for them to believe that Ye Qing had really cleared away all the evil spirits in the herbs.

Even though they knew that Ye Qing's strength was terrifying and might very well be beyond their expectations.

But no matter how strong you are, there is a limit, and removing evil spirits is not something you can do easily!
How could they believe that two large piles of herbs could be prepared in less than a second?
Of course they would not question Ye Qing, but they would check it themselves.

The two men each picked up a herb, and after examining it carefully, their expressions were suddenly shocked.

"Really gone?"

The two were shocked and checked carefully, and found that the powerful evil spirit in the herbs had really disappeared completely.

The two men didn't believe it, so they picked up other herbs to observe and found the same thing.

The original evil spirit is all gone.

They looked at each other without saying anything, but continued to check the other strains at a very fast speed and found that they were still the same.

The evil spirit is really... all gone!
The two suspected that they were dreaming, but reality told them that this was not a dream.

This is real!

Ye Qing really eliminated all the evil spirits in the medicinal herbs with ease, and solved the big problem that had been bothering them easily and comfortably.

"This……"

The two men stared at Ye Qing with eyes wide open, full of awe.

Such ability, such strength...

How terrifying is Ye Qing!

After a long while, the group of Chu family members finally calmed down. In their minds, their estimate of Ye Qing's strength increased significantly.

"Although the evil spirit has been removed, I am still unable to make full use of these medicinal materials due to my limited alchemy skills and the limited energy of a person."

The third elder sighed, “Although the Dragon God took action to dispel the evil spirit and saved me a lot of time, there is still a limit to what I can do.”

"So, I'm afraid these herbs can only be distributed to the family members for use, and try not to waste them to the greatest extent possible."

"But I feel sad when I think about the fact that such old medicinal materials can't even exert 100% of their medicinal properties."

The third elder looked unhappy and kept sighing.

Chu Xian paused after hearing this. She hesitated for a moment and turned to look at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing said that he was proficient in many things, including alchemy. She was considering whether to ask Ye Qing for help.

But she still hesitated.

Ye Qing has given her and the Chu family so much, and she really doesn't want to trouble Ye Qing anymore.

Moreover, this is likely to affect Ye Qing's perception of her.

Before she could speak, Ye Qing spoke first.

The person Ye Qing spoke to was the third elder of the Chu family.

"Can you make pills?"

Ye Qing looked at the Third Elder with a strange look in his eyes. He slowly said, "I can't see anything that an alchemist should have in you."

"This……"

Although Ye Qing's words were not very pleasant to the ear, the Third Elder did not dare to show the slightest displeasure.

He replied with an embarrassed look, "Reporting to the Dragon God, I am a self-taught person, and I am only half-baked. It's just that my family got a fragment of alchemy a few years ago, which recorded some alchemy essentials, as well as the formulas and refining methods of several low-level elixirs. I was very interested in it, and studied it day and night, and finally figured out something simple. I usually refine two or three low-level elixirs for my family members to assist in their practice. I am far from being able to make elixirs, and I dare not call myself an alchemist."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qing nodded.

“Dragon God, you said that I don’t have anything that an alchemist should have…”

The third elder hesitated for a moment, and then asked cautiously: "You... are an alchemist?"
