Chapter 18: One Hundred Thousand Mountains
This announcement made the Wang family cheer and cheer, but the Chen family on the other side looked gloomy.
Chen Shi looked at Qin Shu on the high platform, his expression so gloomy that he could almost shed tears. This time, his Chen family suffered heavy losses. Not only was the Xiao Yuan Dan gone, but the alchemist who had spent a lot of money to hire was also gone.
"Let's go!" With the words almost squeezed out from between his teeth, Chen Shi turned around and left with the others, not even daring to say harsh words.
Wang Zhan knew about fifth-grade elixirs, but he, Chen Shi, knew better. A sixth-grade alchemist, with just the slightest hint, could even kill someone to please the normally neutral city lord's palace.
That’s the figure standing on the clouds!
"Immediately send someone to the provincial capital to find Master Song Liu and tell him that his apprentice has been killed!" Chen Shi ordered in a low voice, and soon the guards of the Chen family rushed towards the city gate.
Song Liu, the master Zhang Wanfang talks about, is a fourth-grade alchemy master.
"A sixth-grade alchemist is so noble that even I, Chen Shi, dare not bear it, but there are always people who dare!" Chen Shi looked back at the central square that was still in sight and sneered.
The provincial capital is much larger than Qingshi City, and the geniuses there are like crucian carp crossing the river. There are sixth-grade alchemists there, although they are rare, they are not unheard of.
"When the time comes, I want your Wang family to vomit out everything they have eaten!"
Naturally, Qin Shu didn't know that the Chen family had just suffered a huge setback and was about to cause trouble again. At this moment, he was receiving the god-like gazes of those at the Wang family's seat.
"By the way, this sixth-grade elixir is useful to me!" Qin Shu turned his head and looked at Yang Shan who was following him. According to the rules, the elixir refined in this competition should be returned to the city lord's palace.
"Master, if you want, feel free to use it!" Yang Shan did not dare to refuse, and he would not refuse. Everyone knows how to choose between a sixth-grade elixir and a good friend of a sixth-grade alchemist.
"Thank you very much!" The smile on Qin Shu's face softened a lot. The sixth-grade elixir contained a lot of essence, and he needed these essences to polish the Dao foundation.
"Let's go home and celebrate!" Wang Zhan waved his hand domineeringly. The smile on his face has never stopped since he recognized the fifth-grade elixir.
As the Wang and Chen families left the scene, the news that the Wang family had a sixth-grade alchemist quickly spread throughout the entire Bluestone City. It even gradually spread to other places as practitioners from all walks of life left the city.
Three hundred miles outside of Bluestone City is a natural barrier composed of countless mountains. These mountains are majestic and steep, and there are countless poisonous insects and beasts inside them. Even the most experienced hunters dare not go deep into them.
The hunters of Qingshi City collectively call these mountains the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Legend has it that these mountains fell from the sky and have incredible weirdness.
And when Qin Shu inspired the ancestors' sacrificial sounds in the Wuxu Ancient Cauldron, deep in the Shiwan Mountains, a void was like a broken mirror, and countless cracks were quietly emerging like spider webs.
"This is the breath of..." Ancient and obscure thoughts poked out from the cracks, as if they were sensing something in the void.
"Sir... human race..." This thought seems to be very confusing, and the meaning of the fluctuations is unclear, as if it is talking in a dream.
"Failed...my lord..."
"Wuxu...Wuxu..." murmured, this thought fell silent again, only the cracks in the void were getting bigger and bigger, and occasionally bronze buildings could be seen emerging from the cracks.
Qin Shu, who was attending the celebration banquet at the Wang family, seemed to feel something. He turned his head and looked in the direction of Shiwandashan. He had some doubts in his heart. At that moment, he felt some fluctuations in his heart.
"There's something in that direction that seems to be related to me."
"What's wrong?" Wang Shishan, who was sitting next to him, sensed something was wrong with Qin Shu's expression.
"It's nothing. It's my first time making alchemy, so I'm a little tired." Qin Shu calmed down and said with a smile.
When Yang Shan, who followed with a thick old face, heard this, he almost spat out the wine he had just drank in his mouth. He refined the sixth grade of alchemy for the first time? Then what can he do after he becomes proficient?
"Is your grandson-in-law tired? Let's stop here today!" Wang Zhan also heard the conversation between the young couple and immediately stopped the celebration banquet.
The grandson-in-law is now the treasure of the Wang family. Wang Zhan is really considerate and said: "Come here, please send the young lady and uncle back!"
Qin Shu nodded slightly. It didn't matter whether he was celebrating or not. Leaving the table early would give him a chance to swallow the sixth-grade elixir.
On the other hand, Wang Shishan didn't know what she thought of when she heard Wang Zhan's instructions. Her pretty face was slightly red, and she looked particularly charming under the light of the lights.
Before arriving at the room, before Qin Shu could say anything, Wang Shishan scurried into her boudoir like a little rabbit. Her movements were so vigorous that even Qin Shu couldn't react.
Qin Shu was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, shook his head, slowly returned to his room, and sat cross-legged on the bed.
Taking out the sixth-grade elixir from his sleeve robe, Qin Shu didn't look at it carefully, he opened his mouth and swallowed the elixir. If Yang Shan saw this, he would be shocked again.
You must know that the energy of the sixth-grade refining medicine is powerful and vast, and it must be assisted by other elixirs to refine it into spiritual energy bit by bit. If you swallow it like a jujube, it is very easy to explode and die without refining energy.
After Qin Shu swallowed it, there was no abnormality at all, and even his face did not change, as if he had just swallowed a jelly bean.
Within the body, the powerful energy flowed into the Dantian through the meridians extending in all directions, but was absorbed by the Wuxu Ancient Cauldron that was already sitting there.
The roar of the ancient cauldron continued, and wisps of pure spiritual power slowly spread from the cauldron and merged into the Dantian, becoming Qin Shu's spiritual power.
This is still the ancient method of the great elixir of the human body. After the tempering of the ancient method, only the most pure part of the originally majestic energy is left, making the spiritual mist in Qin Shu's Dantian only slightly thicker.
After a while, Qin Shu opened his eyes after refining the elixir, with some doubts in his eyes. Why is the spiritual energy so thin in this future world of human race?
When he was the Human Emperor, he conquered all the tribes in the south and north, and captured a lot of Futian Cave and Land. At that time, in the human race's territory, spiritual power could not only turn into rain, but also turn into fog.
But in today's human condition, his spiritual power is so thin that he can't even support him to operate the ancient method for a whole day.
"What happened to the human race after I passed through reincarnation?" Qin Shu thought deeply.
The Ancient Wuxu Cauldron on his body is also a mystery. The Ancient Wuxu Cauldron is a medicine cauldron and has insufficient killing power. He did not bring it with him when he entered the reincarnation, but when he woke up from the reincarnation, the ancient cauldron was on his body.
Who can deliver the ancient tripod accurately across reincarnation?
