Chapter 189: Demon Blood Great Pill Formation, Xu Ning’s Hidden Hand

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Senior Sister Si, you have advanced to the true domain realm and obtained a dao weapon?”

Jiang Yiyi and Jiang Lulu looked surprised.

Both of them were martial artists in the common seal realm. Moreover, Si Ying had deliberately restrained her aura, so neither of them noticed Si Ying’s advancement.

“Senior Sister Si is indeed the number one true disciple of the Thousand Flood Sect!”

Jiang Yiyi said, “Since you have advanced to the true domain realm, you have definitely surpassed He Mingye of the Yuelan Sect. You are now the strongest disciple among all the sects in State Jifeng.”

“I guess not only in State Jifeng, but in the entire seventeen states of the Abyss North. Senior Sister Si is also the most outstanding.”

Jiang Lulu added, “With Senior Sister Si’s current strength and a dao weapon in hand, it will be easy to eliminate the higher-ups of the Phantom Blood Sect.”

After hearing what her two junior sisters said, Si Ying shook her head gently. “You don’t have to think too highly of me. The current me may not be able to catch up to He Mingye. Although He Mingye’s improvement is slightly slower than mine, his secret techniques are cultivated extremely quickly. His Water Cross Sword and Bright Fire Sword have long been cultivated to the ninth level. When these two secret techniques are used at the same time, their lethality is extremely high. If I fight against him in the same realm, there is a high chance that I will be suppressed by him.”

‘Moreover, I haven’t seen He Mingye for a long time. Maybe he has already advanced to the true domain realm…’

As the top true disciples of the two strongest sects in State Jifeng, Si Ying and He Mingye were old friends.

In her heart, Si Ying had always been competing with He Mingye.

“But Senior Sister…”

“Wait…”

Just when Jiang Yiyi was about to say something, she was suddenly stopped by Si Ying.

“Someone is approaching…”

Si Ying picked up her pace. “Follow me, we probably ran into a disciple of the Phantom Blood Sect.”

Afterwards, the three of them rushed in one direction.

Soon, they saw several disciples wearing the uniform of the Phantom Blood Sect walking towards the direction of the Phantom Blood Sect. They were currently escorting a dozen commoners.

“These thieves from the Phantom Blood Sect are abducting ordinary people in order to use their blood to practice their demonic techniques.”

After Si Ying saw it clearly, her face turned cold.

She flew out and a light blue sword light was released. Several heads of the disciples of the Phantom Blood Sect fell, leaving only one alive.

“Bring us to the Sect Master of Phantom Blood Sect.”

Si Ying ordered.

Afterwards, they dismissed everyone and let the terrified Phantom Blood Sect disciple lead the way to the sect.

…

Four hours later.

Phantom Blood Sect.

Feng Changge sat cross-legged in the secret room, alone and calm.

He no longer had beauties by his side, nor was he enjoying himself.

He wanted to adjust to his peak state and wait for the Demon Blood Great Pill to be refined before swallowing it.

The reason for this was because when Feng Changge obtained the refinement method of the Demon Blood Great Pill, he learned that there was a chance of failure if he consumed the Demon Blood Great Pill to advance. Once he failed, he could drop a major realm, or even die on the spot.

Therefore, Feng Changge was very cautious about this. He was determined to take the pill in his best condition.

Knock! Knock!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door to his sealed room.

The sealed room Feng Changge was in was extremely sealed off, almost isolating all sound and aura.

If the people in the sect wanted to find Feng Changge in the sealed room, they could only activate the mechanism outside the sealed room.

Feng Changge heard the noise and frowned with a look of displeasure.

“What is it?”

Although he was annoyed, Feng Changge still responded.

He opened the door of the sealed room and let a flustered disciple in.

“Sect Master, three young women broke into the sect and started a massacre!”

The disciple’s had a panicked tone. “Three elders have been killed, and two elders are even seriously injured. Please go out and take a look!”

“What?!”

Feng Changge’s expression changed and turned dark.

“Someone dares to cause trouble in my Phantom Blood Sect?”

Feng Changge was currently waiting for the Demon Blood Great Pill to be refined, and this needed a stable environment.

But now, someone actually came to cause trouble.

Feng Changge walked out of the sealed room.

Sure enough, the moment he walked out of the secret room, Feng Changge sensed the aura of a true domain realm martial artist.

He quickly rushed over and saw Si Ying, Jiang Yiyi, and Jiang Lulu killing the disciples of the Phantom Blood Sect while rescuing the imprisoned people.

Feng Changge was furious.

“Who came to my Phantom Blood Sect to cause trouble?”

Feng Changge ignored Jiang Yiyi and Jiang Lulu and rushed towards Si Ying.

“It’s Feng Changge!”

After sensing the other party’s aura, Si Ying instantly confirmed the other party’s identity.

“Feng Changge, today is the day you die!”

Si Ying took out her dao weapon longsword and attacked Feng Changge.

“Dao weapon?”

Feng Changge noticed the power of the longsword in Si Ying’s hand. He was shocked at first, then his expression became flushed with excitement.

“Back in the mystic realm, I didn’t even get a complete dao weapon, but now someone is delivering it to me.”

Feng Changge laughed loudly and took out a damaged dagger from his pocket.

This dagger was the damaged dao weapon Feng Changge had obtained from the mystic realm.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Instantly, there were blade lights and sword shadows.

‘Not good, Feng Changge is already a half-step dao realm master, and he also has a damaged dao weapon!’

After fighting for a while, Si Ying realized that she was at a disadvantage.

“I know who you are, you are Si Ying, the number one true disciple of the Thousand Flood Sect!”

Feng Changge had an excited expression. “Fortunately, you have just advanced to the true domain realm not long ago, and you are not used to your dao weapon. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t have been able to keep you here today!”

Afterwards, Feng Changge exerted his full strength.

“Thunder-attribute Extreme Blade!”

After a flurry of attacks, Feng Changge defeated Si Ying, causing her to be covered in injuries.

“The dao weapon is mine!”

Feng Changge seriously injured Si Ying with one slash before snatching the weapon.

He then captured Si Ying.

“Senior Sister Si!”

Jiang Yiyi and Jiang Lulu were anxious and quickly came to rescue her.

“Go!”

Si Ying felt hopeless. She didn’t expect Feng Changge to be so strong.

“Want to leave?”

Feng Changge didn’t give Jiang Yiyi and Jiang Lulu a chance to escape at all. He captured them as well.

“I will lock you up first. Once I advance to the dao realm, I will use your blood to cultivate!”

Feng Changge laughed savagely.

…

At this moment.

Inside the alchemy room.

‘Someone seems to be fighting outside…’

Xu Ning was focused on observing Xiang Nanchun’s refinement of the Demon Blood Great Pill, but he suddenly sensed a battle was going on outside the alchemy room.

Although the isolation effect of the alchemy room was good, Xu Ning still noticed it with his acute senses.

‘Could it be that someone came to the Phantom Blood Sect to seek revenge?’

Xu Ning thought to himself.

As the Sect Master of the Phantom Blood Sect, Feng Changge had countless enemies, so it was normal for people to come to find him.

‘It should have been quelled by Feng Changge…’

The battle outside ended quickly.

Xu Ning was not surprised. With Feng Changge’s strength as a half-step dao realm master and his damaged dao weapon, few people in State Jifeng were his opponent.

Bang!

A muffled sound came from the furnace.

A putrid smell then came from the furnace.

“Another failure…”

Xu Ning was not surprised.

After four hours, Xiang Nanchun had refined the Demon Blood Great Pill more than a dozen times, but each time he failed.

“The refinement method of the Demon Blood Great Pill is really difficult to fathom…”

Xiang Nanchun sighed.

“Mmm…”

Xu Ning casually responded and thought to himself.?‘If I personally refine this Demon Blood Great Pill and use the dao weapon pill furnace, I should be able to successfully refine it once every ten tries…’

Xu Ning had the inheritance of a master alchemist as a foundation, so it was much easier for him to figure out the refinement method of the Demon Blood Great Pill.

Xu Ning had the ability to refine the Demon Blood Great Pill, but he decided not to refine it personally because he wanted to observe the process of the Demon Blood Great Pill’s formation.

What he wanted was not the pill to be created, but to leave behind a hidden hand in the Demon Blood Great Pill to deal with Feng Changge.

Therefore, the process of taking apart the Demon Blood Great Pill and analyzing its medicinal properties was what Xu Ning needed to do.

“Continue refining.”

Xu Ning ordered Xiang Nanchun.

If Xiang Nanchun refined more, Xu Ning would be able to unravel more of the details.

“Understood.”

Xiang Nanchun responded, but he was not very willing.

As a high-level alchemist, Xiang Nanchun felt very frustrated that he still couldn’t find a way to refine the pill.

In the past, he would have thrown aside the pill furnace and left to relax his mind.

But Xu Ning was urging him, so he could only concentrate on refining.

Very soon, three days went by.

Over the past three days, the raw materials that Feng Changge had prepared at the beginning had been used up. Even the hundred sets of raw materials that were delivered the second time were about to be completely used up.

‘This time, it seems to be working…’

Xu Ning was still watching.

At this moment, Xiang Nanchun looked exhausted and his lips were pale.

Long periods of exhaustion and being unable to relax made Xiang Nanchun feel uncomfortable.

But after persevering for so long, he finally figured out a way to refine the Demon Blood Great Pill.

Xiang Nanchun activated his alchemy technique, separated the medicinal properties, and refined the pill.

‘It’s over, I’m going to fail again…’

Xiang Nanchun suddenly felt that there were flaws in his refinement process.

However, Xu Ning suddenly opened the lid of the furnace with his true qi and threw in a handful of spirit medicine powder.

This spirit medicine powder was not part of the recipe for the Demon Blood Great Pill.

“Continue refining!”

Xu Ning ordered.

Xiang Nanchun discovered that after Xu Ning added the spirit medicine powder, the unstable furnace stabilized again.

When Xiang Nanchun saw this, he focused on refining.

Bang!

This time, a palm-sized black pill jumped out of the pill furnace.

The Demon Blood Great Pill was done.

“This is the Demon Blood Great Pill?”

Xu Ning took a step forward and pinched the Demon Blood Great Pill.

He observed it and discovered that there was no smell of blood, but instead a medicinal fragrance.

The medicinal fragrance was so strong that it was almost tangible.

“The Demon Blood Great Pill is done…”

Xiang Nanchun leaned forward. “Master Xu, is that a Demon Blood Great Pill? There shouldn’t be any problems, right?”

“The spirit medicine powder you sprinkled in just now doesn’t seem to be in the recipe for the Demon Blood Great Pill. Can this Demon Blood Great Pill fool Feng Changge?”

Xiang Nanchun was afraid that he would be killed by Feng Changge once he saw through the pill.

“There’s no problem…”

Xu Ning smiled.

The spirit medicine powder he put in just now could not only help the Demon Blood Great Pill be refined, but also serve as Xu Ning’s hidden hand.
