Chapter 22 Reagents

It was around 9:00 to 11:00 in the morning the next day.

Jiang Li arrived at the alchemy hall on time.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but the temperature here seems to be higher than other places.

Looking at the alchemy hall area again, the tall chimneys on the roof are constantly emitting thick smoke. I wonder if the world of immortality will also be affected by "chemical" pollution thousands of years from now.

"Senior brother, I have taken over the task of creating the alchemy room."

When Jiang Li passed by, there were already several outer disciples who were also medicine test disciples waiting there.

Contrary to Jiang Li's expectations, everyone else had a look of fear and uneasiness. The income of drug testing disciples was high, but if one was unlucky, he might have to lie in bed for several months.

He stepped forward and explained his purpose to a receiving disciple.

"Well, give me the identity token."

The disciple took the token and compared it with the information on the list of disciples who tested the medicine.

"Oh? It's been a long time since a disciple in the Qi Refining Stage has taken on this task. The red-haired elder will be very happy now."

"Haha, Junior Brother Jiang Li, right? Our Alchemy Hall's missions always provide the most generous rewards. Please come here more often in the future."

This senior fellow from the inner sect was extremely enthusiastic towards Jiang Li, causing him to have a black line on his forehead.

The reward is generous and no one has come yet. Why? I don’t know why.

Of course he couldn't really say it, he just smiled and said, "I will, I will."

"When everyone is here, just go in from here and walk to the end."

Two of the other outer disciples had obviously already had experience. Jiang Li followed them forward and soon arrived in front of an alchemy room made of white stones.

"Xiaosi! Go and see if the disciples who are testing the medicine are here!"

As soon as he got closer, a rich male voice came from the room, followed by a burst of panicked footsteps.

After a while, the door to the alchemy room was pushed open from inside, and a girl jumped out like a rabbit.

"Why are you here? The elders are already impatient. Come in, come in!"

The girl waved her hands repeatedly, but the drug-testing disciples did not dare to explain that they had come on time, so they followed her and walked in.

Jiang Li also soon met the elder of the Creation Pill House. He was a tall man, more than two meters tall, with a big beard and hair that exploded together, but the color turned out to be a strange bright red.

No wonder he is called the red-haired elder. This title is very appropriate.

"Huh? There are only so many today? Humph! Today's outer disciples are really becoming less and less courageous."

The red-haired elder was very dissatisfied, but Tibetan Scripture Valley was a righteous sect after all. They couldn't do whatever they wanted, and they couldn't randomly grab disciples to test the medicine.

"The old rule is, there is one pill for each person on the table. After taking it, just tell me how you feel. That's it. It's very simple."

The female disciple next to him, who was previously called Xiaosi, opened a porcelain bottle on the table and poured six pills on the table.

"Why are you still standing there! Eat quickly! I have reduced the dose of medicine, I can't kill you."

Seeing that the disciples who were testing the medicine still didn't understand, the red-haired elder urged impatiently, and the six disciples, including Jiang Li, reluctantly stepped forward and each picked up a pill.

This elixir is completely black and smells like burnt rock.

The volume of the elixir is much smaller than the normal Qi-nourishing Dan and Qi-Reviving Dan, only about a quarter of the regular size. It seems that the elder is not lying and has indeed reduced the dosage.

Identification Technique!

[Name: Unnamed elixir]

[Type: elixir]

[Grade: Not yet entered]

[Note: It is an immature work that has a certain effect.]

After seeing that it was indeed not poison, Jiang Li put the elixir into his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

Seeing this, several other people had to follow Jiang Li and swallow the elixir. After all, they came here on a mission, and it was too late to regret it now.

"How's it going? Do you feel anything?"

"Feel carefully and tell me if you have any special feelings."

The girl named Xiaosi had tied her hair into a ponytail with a strip of cloth at some point, and then stood beside the six people holding a notebook, asking and observing.

"I, I feel a little tired."

"Yeah, me too. I'm getting tired..."

"And my skin, it's a little hot and itchy, and my whole body is itchy!"

"Oh no, I can't breathe, Senior Sister Xiaosi! Senior Sister Xiaosi, please help me!"

Except for Jiang Li, the other five medicine-testing disciples began to scream in fear after feeling uncomfortable.

Two of their disciples had practiced martial arts, and their physiques were better than ordinary people and could barely stand. The other three disciples, who were completely ordinary people, had now collapsed directly to the ground.

Judging from their weak limbs and shortness of breath, they really don't look like they are pretending.

Xiaosi hurriedly stepped forward to take notes. He had already taken out the first-aid elixir in his hand and was ready to give it to them at any time.

"Alas! Did I fail again?"

Seeing the five disciples who were seriously ill and seemed to have lost half their lives, the red-haired elder looked a little disappointed.

Then he turned around and saw Jiang Li, who was still standing there.

"You...how are you okay?"

Jiang Li was speechless...Isn't it okay for me?

It's not that he's really fine, it's just that the matter is not serious.

[Taking unknown elixirs will cause a slight loss of physical strength and affect oneself.]

[Physique value exceeds 4 points, immunity from slight physical loss effects!]

[Taking unknown elixirs can cause acute respiratory allergies to affect oneself.]

[If the constitution value exceeds 4 points, the effect of acute respiratory allergy will be reduced by 70%]

[Mild acute respiratory allergy, respiratory mucosa swelling by 5%, vital capacity reduced by 7%, lasting thirty minutes.] (-+)

[Taking unknown elixirs has a weak effect on strengthening the skin and acting on itself.]

[Weak effect strengthens skin, strengthens skin toughness by 5%, lasts for twenty minutes] (-+)

Jiang Li was a little helpless. This newly developed elixir was indeed a scam. It had more side effects than positive effects. From any point of view, it could not be considered a success.

"Elder, maybe it's because I'm in the early stages of Qi training, and I'm a martial artist in the inner family, so my physique is relatively strong. My feeling is much lighter than theirs."

Jiang Li's calm answer made the red-haired elder's eyes light up. He stepped in front of him in two steps and stared at him with stern eyes.

"What about you? Tell me how you feel. Tell me in detail. Don't miss any details."

He directly snatched the record book from Xiao Si and started recording it himself.

"When I first ate it, like them, I also felt a little tired, but it was very slight and didn't last long, and the feeling disappeared."
