"For someone with exceptional talent, this kind of pill may be of little use, but for a powerful force or someone with average talent, it can be quite formidable."
"And his greatest terrifying aspect is his ability to mass-produce Dou Wang level experts!"
Everyone was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized.
They are exceptionally talented and their goal is to become a Dou Zun or even a Dou Sheng. Subconsciously, they feel that it is not worth exchanging their lifespan for three years to become a Dou Wang.
The level of Dou Wang (斗王) signifies having the initial qualifications to venture across the continent. They are pillars of second- and third-rate forces, and in some cities, they are local tyrants. It is a level that many people yearn for but cannot attain.
Many people spend their entire lives as Battle Masters or Grand Battle Masters. If given the chance to become a Battle King, even if it's only for three years, why would they refuse?
Imagine someone else going through countless hardships to finally reach the Battle King realm, only to have someone else achieve it with a single pill, even if it only takes three years. This would cause people to lose their composure.
Don't be fooled by the fact that this power is obtained by sacrificing one's life; most normal people would never be able to reach the Dou Wang level through normal cultivation.
People with deep-seated hatred, people who crave power, and people whose lifespans are limited—too many people have taken this elixir.
This is only for individuals. If it were for a powerful force, imagine how monstrous it would be if some evil or ambitious forces obtained such pills and built a force with thousands of Dou Wang troops and formations.
"I remember that as soon as this elixir was introduced, it caused a frenzy of competition among countless people. Many second- and third-rate forces on the continent were drawn into it, and some rising forces also harbored great greed for it."
"After all, whoever obtains it can build a Dou Wang army and, with the help of the formation, achieve a leap in level in a short period of time. Even if all these Dou Wangs die, the resources plundered will be enough to do a lot."
"However, this madness did not last long. The alchemist who created the Life-Devouring Pill soon disappeared completely with the pill and the formula, and finally vanished into the long river of time."
At this point, the old alchemist said with some admiration, "That's why this pill is so powerful, and the alchemist who created it is also very skilled."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
At this moment, Zhang Yuan said, "If we can overcome the problem of only having a lifespan of three years, the value of this pill will become even greater."
Feng Xian chuckled and said, "That really is the way of thinking of a powerful figure, but it's not easy to do that."
The old apothecary smiled and said, "I understand what you're thinking, young Yuan. Even if it's just to satisfy my own curiosity, I will study this Life-Devouring Pill. If I can find a solution, I will definitely tell you."
tell me?
You already told me that.
Zhang Yuan grinned: "Senior, the Life-Devouring Pill is extremely potent. Its principle is to consume one's own lifespan to fully unleash its medicinal power, thereby elevating a Great Dou Master to a Dou King in one fell swoop."
"Then what if you obtained a pill to extend your lifespan, and then broke through to the Douhuang level before your lifespan ran out?"
"What will happen?"
Upon hearing this, the old doctor's eyes lit up.
"Good idea! It's a pity you can't be an alchemist, Yuan!"
"I wish you could switch places with Xiao Yanzi."
Xiao Yan:? ? ?
Is this disdain not even being concealed?
Chapter 181 An array, countless seventh-grade spiritual herbs!
"Teacher, you don't need to put one down to praise the other. I know my cousin is very smart." Xiao Yan touched his nose, slightly embarrassed.
He had no objection to Zhang Yuan being amazing; in fact, he would give him a thumbs up in recognition.
My cousin is the most powerful person in the world; he will be invincible from now on.
But is it necessary to dislike him?
"It's a pity that young Yuan can't refine pills," Yao Chen said with some regret. "With his quick wit in weapon crafting, if he could refine pills, he would surely be able to create many rare and precious elixirs."
"When I first saw this Life-Devouring Pill, my first thought was how to undo its power of devouring lifespan. However, I overlooked the fact that the pill's ability to enhance strength is based on consuming lifespan. How can this be reversed?"
"But lifespan can be replenished when it is depleted. For example, there is a sixth-grade pill called the Azure Longevity Pill. Each person can only take one pill in their lifetime, which is enough to extend a person's lifespan by nearly ten years."
"In other words, these two pills can be used together and auctioned off, turning a cultivator at the level of a Great Dou Master into a Dou King with a lifespan of thirteen years."
"Once you become a Dou Wang, you can become a high-ranking member of a third-rate power and have the basic qualifications to roam the continent. If you can obtain a Di-rank cultivation technique and find a blessed land, you have a good chance of becoming a Dou Huang."
"Becoming a Dou Zong requires comprehension, while breaking through to Dou Huang only requires investing resources according to one's talent."
"At that time, the body's constitution will undergo a transformation, and the lost lifespan will be replenished through the creation of heaven and earth."
"If this prescription were in the hands of first- or second-rate powers, it would be able to guarantee that every generation of young disciples would reach the Dou Huang level before the age of twenty."
A look of fear and admiration reappeared in Yao Lao's eyes.
Grade 6 and Grade 7 pills are very precious, but second-rate forces with a Dou Zong master in charge can barely afford them, while first-rate forces can afford to produce them from time to time.
If a disciple recruited by the sect can reach the Great Dou Master level before the age of twenty, then he has the potential to become a Dou Huang. At this time, after taking two pills and combining them with a Di-rank cultivation technique, he will definitely be able to break through to Dou Huang before the age of thirty.
As long as he doesn't perish, he will have at least sixty years to break through to the Dou Zong level.
One step ahead leads to another, and even being a Dou Huang for sixty years can change many things.
"Senior, give me the formulas for the Life-Devouring Pill and the Azure Nether Longevity Pill." Zhang Yuan spread his hands towards the old medicine master.
"Are you asking someone to collect medicinal herbs?" The old apothecary tossed the scroll in his hand to Zhang Yuan, and then took out a blank scroll and wrote in the air.
“Hmm!” Zhang Yuan nodded calmly: “We will issue the mission directly on the Nine Abyss Token. As more people acquire the Nine Abyss Token, the speed of collecting medicinal herbs will also increase.”
"After refining the Life-Devouring Pill and the Azure Nether Longevity Pill, they can be exchanged together, and some can be kept to cultivate direct descendants."
The medicinal herbs can be found by others, and the refining process can be left to Xiao Yanzi and Gu He.
When the time comes, taking out a portion of it will offset the "source points and task points" needed to purchase medicinal herbs, leaving the middleman to make a huge profit and also making his subordinates grateful.
Once the Life-Devouring Pill and the Azure Nether Longevity Pill are available, Jia Xingtian will definitely arrange for them to be given to the two princesses. Ya Fei, whose cultivation talent is quite good now, can take them, as can the maids in and out of the realm.
"I didn't expect to make such a discovery in the very first place we entered the tomb." Zhang Yuan smiled. "I'll have to reward Zi Yan properly later."
"I want a big meal." Zi Yan licked her lips.
"Then you'll have to beg me," Qing Yanjing chuckled softly from the side.
"Sister Jing, you won't refuse, will you?" Zi Yan quickly reached out to pull Qing Yan Jing's arm.
"Well," Qing Yanjing deliberately kept everyone in suspense.
Zi Yan's big eyes were watery, and she looked like she was about to cry if you rejected her.
"Haha." Zhang Yuan suddenly laughed, "Then why don't I ask Sister Jing for help?"
Qing Yanjing rolled her beautiful eyes and said disdainfully, "You're the only one who knows how to be a good person."
Kind smiles appeared on everyone's faces.
Xiao Yan coughed lightly and asked, "Cousin, which way do we go next?"
There are three doors around this main hall, which should lead to three different directions.
“Let’s go to the deepest part of the tomb first and meet that eighth-grade alchemist,” Zhang Yuan said, having already made his decision. “If he is a highly respected senior, we will befriend him and show him that we can help him increase his chances of surviving the tribulation, so that he can be reborn through the elixir.”
"If that senior is a greedy person, we will make a deal with him and gain some benefits."
"If that senior is an evil person, I think we should let Senior Yao take his place."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan chuckled and said, "In that case, I do hope that the owner of this tomb is an evil person."
The old apothecary couldn't help but chuckle, pointing at him with his finger and saying, "You, if I were to be reborn through the elixir, you could walk sideways all over the continent, wouldn't you?"
"You noticed that, teacher?" Xiao Yan said, looking embarrassed.
Feng Xian watched this scene with some emotion and said, "Should we split up and try to find the way to the deepest part?"
They didn't have a structural map of this tomb, so they could only try and fail to get to the deepest part.
Fortunately, there is still a year until the day the pill is formed, so they have plenty of time to find the deepest part.
“There’s no need for that much trouble.” Zhang Yuan raised his hand, summoned a wisp of Xuanhuang Flame, and then threw it out.
This wisp of Xuanhuang Flame drifted in the air, transforming into extremely pure and high-level fire attribute energy, and floated towards a certain portal.
"Go here."
Zhang Yuan, with his hands behind his back and his long robes fluttering, took a step forward.
The old doctor nodded approvingly: "This tomb is a medicine cauldron. The tomb owner arranged all the medicinal materials to refine the medicine, and his own position must be the final place where the elixir is formed."
"The place where the elixir is formed is also the place where the fire attribute energy in the medicine cauldron is most concentrated."
"Wherever the fire-attribute energy of heaven and earth mainly flows, that is where the deepest part of the tomb leads."
With the old doctor's explanation, everyone immediately understood the purpose of Zhang Yuan's actions and followed suit.
After entering the gate, there is a long passageway paved entirely with some kind of mineral.
Zhang Yuan and the others did not walk very fast, but instead looked around with great interest, so as not to miss any details.
"The owner of this tomb must be someone from a top-tier power or no ordinary person," Yao Lao said as he approached Zhang Yuan, offering his assessment and warning him to be careful.
"I understand, sir." Zhang Yuan nodded.
The ore used to construct this tunnel is no ordinary mineral; it is sixth-order Fire Cloud Crystal Ore, which can absorb the power of the fire veins and transform it into pure fire-attribute energy of heaven and earth, thereby altering the environment.
They saw such a passageway even when they were still on the outskirts. How much resources must have been used to build the entire tomb?
Only renowned eighth-rank alchemists who frequently refine pills for others, or those backed by a Dou Sheng (Battle Saint) power, can afford to provide such resources.
Within fifteen minutes, everyone felt a wave of heat wash over them.
This indicates that the next tomb chamber is not far away. They have arrived at a point where fire-attribute energy is more concentrated. The previous tomb had two Life-Devouring Pills and a pill formula, so the things here must be even better.
Stepping out of the passageway, what greeted everyone's eyes was no longer a grand hall, but a medicinal herb garden.
Looking around, it was a fiery red expanse, all of which were medicinal herbs that looked like lavender, but were red in color.
"This is the seventh-grade medicinal herb, Fire Fragrance Flower!" The old apothecary's voice trembled slightly.
Seventh-tier medicinal herbs are nothing in Yao Chen's eyes.
Not to mention that he had refined countless Rank 8 pills in the past, he had seen many precious Rank 8 medicinal herbs and rare treasures, and even collected a rare Rank 9 medicinal herb, which is now kept in the Starfall Pavilion to be nurtured by the power of the stars.
During this time, he also used a lot of seventh-grade medicinal herbs to refine seventh-grade pills.
The reason for the astonishment is the sheer number of people.
Looking around, this medicinal garden must contain tens of thousands of fragrant flowers.
This is a fortune that even top-tier powers would covet.
