Chapter 5087: Stab from behind

.

Originally, Zuo Feng had a hard time making an accurate estimate of the potency of the pill. He could only use his experience in refining other medicines, plus some calculation and imagination, to roughly estimate the potency of the medicine.

However, Zuo Feng's estimate was still relatively conservative. This was not because he made a mistake, but because it was a habit of the pharmacist.

For example, refining a low-grade pill is to improve the martial artist's cultivation and combat power in a short period of time. When refining medicine, it is often higher than the low-grade level. Although it has not reached the middle grade, it is between the low-grade and middle grades.

Only medicines of this quality can ensure that the user will not have problems at critical moments. Warriors often need to take this kind of medicine to improve their cultivation or combat power in a short period of time when facing strong enemies or great dangers. However, if the potency and efficacy are just a little bit worse, and they lose their lives in the end, this is neither the result that the pharmacist wants to see, nor the result that the user hopes for.

For example, when a warrior reaches a critical moment in his cultivation, he needs to use drugs to help himself to advance to the next level at a critical moment.

The higher the level of a warrior, the more difficult it is to improve his cultivation, especially when the level is crossed. If he cannot make it in one go, the difficulty of the next upgrade may even double. Therefore, this kind of auxiliary drugs is not only very popular, but also very expensive.

Since the level crossing is so important, the drugs made by good alchemists need to take into account some unpredictable difficulties or unpredictable obstacles that practitioners may encounter when they are promoted. It is absolutely necessary to make the drugs stronger.

Of course, not all alchemists are like this. Some of them are forces that have established their own schools by refining medicine. They pay attention to their own reputation and will choose to refine medicine in this way. In addition, there are some people who refine medicine for their own use, so they will naturally consider it more prudently and refine it more carefully.

Zuo Feng belongs to the latter category. He does not rely on selling drugs to make money. The various drugs he refines are either to help himself or to help his companions or subordinates around him.

When a habit has been slowly integrated into the body, even when making judgments, it is often subconscious, or even unconscious, and everything is taken as natural.

Even Zuo Feng himself did not notice that in his hands, he would be relatively conservative when estimating the medicinal properties and potency of ordinary medicines.

Other medicines would not be affected too much, after all, they were either taken by himself or given to his companions or subordinates. But the pills taken out now are different. Since the initial failure of refining, its medicinal properties and potency can no longer be judged in a normal way.

In the process of refining ordinary medicines, a small part of the medicinal power will be lost more or less, because after the various medicines are refined and mixed, they must be allowed to achieve a perfect balance.

However, this kind of failed medicine not only did not lose its medicinal power, it was simply the product of the failure to achieve a balance between the medicinal properties of many medicinal materials.

Not only did it not lose its medicinal properties, but some medicines would almost double their medicinal properties after being fused with each other, so that it would not be possible to form a normal pill at the end of the refining.

Zuo Feng originally just wanted to try, hoping to refine a stronger medicine, but he failed in the end. Although the medicine is stronger, it is impossible for people to take it. Unbalanced medicine is of no benefit to humans, but will damage the body, and the effect is comparable to poison.

However, for humans, the medicine that causes great harm will have certain benefits for the beasts, or more precisely, for the powerful beasts.

Zuo Feng also saw that this ice-horned rhinoceros was not only a king insect, but also able to condense the royal bloodline. So he took out the pill and let it try to take it, otherwise Zuo Feng planned to let Ni Feng try to take this medicine.

As a result, the king of the ice-horned rhinoceros was already extremely excited when he smelled the pungent smell that was unacceptable to ordinary humans, and couldn't wait to swallow it.

Especially after swallowing one pill, it couldn't stop at all, one mouthful after another, one pill after another. Zuo Feng was watching and shaking his head, wanting to stop the other party, but the ice-horned rhinoceros was completely immersed in it and ignored Zuo Feng.

Originally, Zuo Feng was still wondering if the other party had just swallowed most of the medicine without refining it immediately. After all, the bodies of the beastmen are special. Not only medicine, but sometimes some food can be stored in the body first, and then nutrients can be taken from it when needed.

The horrible destruction that Zuo Feng imagined did not happen. The medicine was not stored, but was all refined and absorbed on the spot. The ice-horned rhinoceros, which was originally not big, released extremely powerful energy fluctuations bit by bit.

When it began to swallow the sixth pill, which was the last pill given by Zuo Feng, a painful expression flashed in the small eyes of the ice-horned rhinoceros.

Seeing the other party like this, Zuo Feng also subconsciously approached the other party, wanting to stop him from swallowing the pill.

As a result, seeing Zuo Feng's actions, I don't know if the ice-horned rhinoceros misunderstood something, but instead swallowed most of the remaining pills in five or six mouthfuls at a faster speed.

Zuo Feng, who saw this scene, stood there in astonishment. The hand that was raised to signal the other party to stop swallowing was frozen in the air, and he forgot to retract it for a while.

Zuo Feng didn't know whether to say that this ice-horned rhinoceros was smart or stupid. If he said it was stupid, its reaction and thoughts were more sensitive than those of ordinary humans. But if this little guy was smart, the pills were so powerful, but it swallowed them regardless of everything, which was simply self-torture.

Zuo Feng also felt somewhat helpless about the performance of the ice-horned rhinoceros, but since Zuo Feng decided to give these six pills to the other party, he would not take them back anyway. Zuo Feng would not really interfere with how the other party chose to swallow.

As the power of the medicine continued to be released, there was a sound of bones colliding in its body, and later there was even a faint thunder transmission.

The painful expression in the small eyes of the ice-horned rhinoceros insect gradually became more intense, but it did not have the slightest resentment towards Zuo Feng. It was just that when the small eyes occasionally looked at Zuo Feng, they would be a little alert and cautious.

Seeing the other party like this, Zuo Feng's heart was only slightly moved, and he had already had some guesses. Because he had more contact with the beast tribe, he could still predict the various performances of the beast tribe and the thoughts hidden under the performance.

Zuo Feng raised his hands to indicate that he had no hostility, and then slowly retreated a distance. Since the two clones of the two in the Divine Mind Stage had escaped for such a long time, Zuo Feng was not in a hurry to catch up immediately.

He was now very curious about what other amazing changes this ice-horned rhinoceros insect would have after swallowing so many pills.

After seeing Zuo Feng's performance, the ice-horned rhinoceros insect seemed to finally feel relieved, and it immediately became focused on itself. The sound in its body became louder and louder, and then the body began to tremble slightly, and finally turned into a dancing appearance.

Although it seemed to be in pain, what he showed now was not a direct effect of pain. It was more like an external manifestation caused by a change in the body.

After about five breaths, the dancing of the ice-horned rhinoceros began to slow down slowly. However, Zuo Feng could see that the pain in its body had not subsided at all, but became more intense.

It was also at this time that the body of the ice-horned rhinoceros began to expand slowly. Although the expansion speed was not too fast, it was really expanding.

But compared with other beasts, the body of this ice-horned rhinoceros had a hard shell outside. So unlike the beasts with soft bodies, the process of expansion was just the stretching of the skin.

Its body expanded, and it felt restricted by the shell, and the larger it expanded, the greater the pressure accumulated inside, as if it was about to explode.

Zuo Feng didn't know whether the situation in front of him was normal, nor did he know whether the ice-horned rhinoceros wanted such a result. Zuo Feng only knew that even if he wanted to help him now, he had no way to start, and could only watch the other party continue to expand, as if it was about to explode.

As time went by, the body of the ice-horned rhinoceros worm became larger and larger, and when this expansion reached a certain state, the ice-horned rhinoceros worm suddenly began to twist wildly, and bursts of hissing chirps came out of its mouth.

Now, let alone Zuo Feng, I am afraid that anyone can see that this ice-horned rhinoceros worm is in great pain and seems to be stuck in a certain state.

Zuo Feng carefully observed and thought about the other party's appearance, which seemed to make him feel a little familiar.

After watching for a while, Zuo Feng suddenly seemed to remember something, and then quickly approached the other party. In the process, he took out his black knife that he had not used for a long time.

The ice-horned rhinoceros worm saw Zuo Feng approaching with a sharp blade, and seemed to want to dodge, but the severe pain and its own state made it unable to dodge, and it could only let Zuo Feng come to its side.

"I don't know if my judgment is correct, but I think if I don't do something, you may be killed by yourself!"

Zuo Feng muttered while transmitting such a message with his mental power. At the same time, Zuo Feng mobilized a trace of wind attribute rules and space rule power around him and condensed it on the black knife. Only by utilizing the power of the space group could Zuo Feng so easily call upon the two forces of rules.

Without any hesitation, the black knife slashed across the back of the ice-horned rhinoceros worm. With the blessing of the two forces of rules, a straight mark immediately appeared on the back of the ice-horned rhinoceros worm after the knife swept across.
