Chapter 1401 Proof on the Spot

Before Zhou Yiqiao finished speaking, everyone, including Luo Lishang and Feng Qishan, changed their expressions.

The medicinal properties of the two spiritual medicines, Astragalus membranaceus and Red Sun Toad Tu, are well known to alchemists who are experts in the properties of elixirs, and even laymen monks who have just gained a little experience.

Zhou Yiqiao's remarks immediately made the young ladies from aristocratic families, led by Luo Shanhu, burst into laughter, with mockery and ridicule evident in their words.

Li Changming's face turned pale and he stared at Zhou Yiqiao, as if he had suffered a great humiliation.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou doesn't even know the most basic medicinal properties and pharmacology, and yet he wants to waste everyone's time here arguing about spiritual medicine?"

"How ridiculous!"

Among all the people, only Luo Lishang and Feng Qishan did not open their mouths to reprimand.

Luo Lishang chose to remain silent and watch how the situation developed because he unconditionally believed that Zhou Yiqiao could solve the current dilemma.

Feng Qishan’s attitude is somewhat intriguing.

After hearing Zhou Yiqiao's rebuttal, his face was slightly stunned at first, and then his eyes dimmed for a while. When everyone was laughing at Zhou Yiqiao, his thoughts were flying, as if he was thinking about something.

When Li Changming made a sarcastic statement, he seemed to have figured out the key to the matter, and his eyes suddenly lit up with an inexplicable light.

“How can you prove your idea?”

The old man suddenly spoke, his voice was not loud, but it instantly calmed the discussions of everyone present.

They looked at Feng Qishan in surprise, wondering why this respected Master Feng did not leave in anger or scold loudly as they expected.

Zhou Yiqiao was naturally confident about the pill formula he had developed.

Facing Feng Qishan's questioning, he raised a faint smile and spoke slowly.

"Senior, everything in the world has a myriad of medicinal properties. Under normal circumstances, the medicinal properties of Astragalus and Crimson Sun Toad are indeed conflicting and cannot coexist in the same pill."

“But if there are specific techniques and auxiliary materials to coordinate, not only can the conflict be neutralized, but it can also stimulate unprecedented medicinal effects.”

Having said this, Zhou Yiqiao raised his hand and touched his side, and then a huge alchemy furnace appeared out of thin air beside him.

"If you are interested in the method of blending these two medicinal properties, I can now refine an ancient elixir containing these two medicinal ingredients for you."

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire space seemed to freeze, and everyone's eyes were focused on Zhou Yiqiao and the huge alchemy furnace that appeared out of thin air.

The laughter of Luo Shanhu and others stopped abruptly, and was replaced by incredible astonishment.

Li Changming's face turned from ashen to gloomy, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes.

As for Feng Qishan, there was only a gleam of curiosity in his eyes as he sought a position.

Under the gaze of everyone, he walked towards Zhou Yiqiao slightly inappropriately, stared at Zhou Yiqiao, and said with a tremor in his voice.

"You...are you telling the truth?"

Zhou Yiqiao nodded slightly, his eyes determined, like a painter with a confident plan, who was about to create a shocking work on the blank scroll.

"Please wait and see, senior."

He just flicked his fingers, and strands of spiritual energy wrapped around the alchemy furnace like silk threads. The furnace body then emitted a faint red light, which dyed the surrounding area of ​​the alchemy furnace with a warm and mysterious color.

Then, he turned his wrist slightly and took out several rare medicinal herbs from the storage ring, including the two elixirs that were at the center of the discussion, Astragalus membranaceus and Red Sun Toad Mud.

"Senior, the elixir I refined is called the Na Yuan Bao Dan. It is a elixir that uses poison to fight poison and removes impurities accumulated in the body."

"This pill is an ancient elixir that I accidentally copied from a pill recipe. After many tests, I confirmed its safety and medicinal properties."

"The reason why I believe that this palace maid's prescription is correct is because of her experience in refining this ancient elixir."

Zhou Yiqiao gave a brief introduction, then slammed the alchemy furnace, grabbed one of the spiritual herbs in the air, and threw it into the Lieyang Divine Cauldron.

Officially entering the alchemy stage, Zhou Yiqiao stopped any irrelevant actions and remained silent. Unknowingly, he made everyone present feel an invisible pressure, as if even their breathing became heavy.

The flame was burning fiercely at the bottom of the furnace. Zhou Yiqiao's eyes were focused and deep. Every change of his gestures was just right, without any hesitation or delay.

As the herbs were put in one by one, strange aromas began to fill the furnace. These aromas intertwined with each other, forming an indescribable charm.

Apart from Zhou Yiqiao and Feng Qishan, Li Changming was the only alchemist present. Naturally, he could see Zhou Yiqiao's attainments in alchemy.

Especially when he saw Zhou Yiqiao put the wild astragalus and the red sun toad into the Fiery Sun Divine Cauldron, and the expected explosion did not happen for half an incense stick of time, there was a flash of disbelief in his eyes.

He moved forward involuntarily, as if he wanted to observe Zhou Yiqiao's alchemy skills up close, and also as if he wanted to stop this alchemy process that might embarrass him before the pill was successfully refined.

But seeing that Feng Qishan was in high spirits, how could he let Li Changming, who was still Zhou Yiqiao's opponent for the time being, get close to him.

The old man just turned his head and gave Li Changming a look, which instantly woke up Li Changming, whose mind was blank.

Li Changming fell to the ground, gasping for breath, and realized how inappropriate his behavior just now was.

He felt a slight chill on his back and reached out to touch it, only to discover belatedly that his collar had been soaked with sweat without him noticing.

Zhou Yiqiao naturally didn't know that so many things had happened in just half an hour.

His thoughts were now completely immersed in the refining of the Na Yuan Bao Dan. His spiritual consciousness enveloped the Lieyang Divine Cauldron, and he was concentrating entirely on the furnace, striving to achieve the best level of refining this time.

Another half hour passed, and just when Luo Shanhu and the other confused young ladies from aristocratic families were getting impatient, the Fiery Sun Cauldron made a muffled sound, and there was finally movement!

"boom!"

As the lid of the alchemy furnace was opened, the rich aroma of medicine accompanied by scorching heat wafted into the air, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Zhou Yiqiao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his right arm. A pill that was completely emerald green and emitting a lustrous glow fell into his palm.

He carefully checked the quality of the pill, then put the pill into a jade bottle and presented it to Feng Qishan.

"Please correct me, senior."

Feng Qishan took the jade bottle with trembling hands and opened the bottle. At that moment, it seemed as if time had stopped.

He took a deep breath, and the aroma of the medicine went straight into his heart, which lifted his spirits. An unconcealable shock flashed in his eyes.

This... this is what you call the Na Yuan Bao Dan?"

Feng Qishan still couldn't believe it. He looked up at Zhou Yiqiao and confirmed again.

Zhou Yiqiao smiled and nodded, then calmly and confidently made a gesture of invitation.

"Senior, you will know once you try it."

Feng Qishan no longer hesitated. He carefully poured out the pill, looked at it carefully for a moment, imprinted the patterns on it in his mind, and then put the pill directly into his mouth.

"Master Feng, no!"

Seeing Feng Qishan's actions, not to mention Luo Shanhu and others, even Luo Lishang couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

With Zhou Yiqiao's strength at the middle stage of the Refining Void Realm, he absolutely could not refine a pill that could poison and kill a powerful person at the Tribulation Realm.

But when the news spread outside the Immortal Emperor Palace that Feng Qishan could trust a young man he had just met not long ago, many people would be surprised.

But at this moment, Feng Qishan no longer cared about the calls of Luo Lishang and others.

He waved his sleeves, and a gentle but extremely domineering spiritual power swept away several feet of anyone who tried to approach him. He stayed alone in the courtyard, feeling the changes after taking the Yuanbao Pill into his stomach.

"Quick, go and get Father!"

Luo Shanhu was extremely anxious, and immediately threw out a handkerchief that symbolized her status, and asked the maid close to her to rush for help.

Feng Qishan holds a very important position in the Immortal Emperor Palace and even in the entire Tiansheng City among the dignitaries. If anything goes wrong in Princess Luo Shanhu's mansion and affects the future alchemy, she cannot bear the responsibility.

However, just as the maid was about to leave after receiving the order, Feng Qishan's body suddenly shook slightly. He raised his hand and tapped his chest several times, then exhaled a breath of spiritual energy from his mouth.

This spiritual energy did not exist in the air for long. It rose about ten feet in the air and then completely dissipated.

Looking at Feng Qishan at this time, all the wrinkles on his face were smoothed out, and an unprecedented light burst out from his eyes.

"Great! What a great Na Yuan Bao Dan! The medicinal power is strong but not too strong, and the impurities are almost completely removed."

"What's even more rare is that this elixir actually contains a burst of vitality. While repairing the hidden diseases in the body, it can also temporarily awaken the deepest potential of the human body!"

There was irrepressible excitement in Feng Qishan's voice. He slowly turned around and looked at Zhou Yiqiao with admiration in his eyes.

"Which book or ancient secret realm did you find the recipe for this Na Yuan Bao Dan?"

"Are there any similar recipes?"

"Can you give me a lesson?"

Three questions in a row not only made Zhou Yiqiao at a loss as to how to answer, but also made Luo Shanhu and others who were waiting to laugh at the joke stand there in a daze.

This sudden change made the originally tense atmosphere instantly become subtle.

Finally, it was Luo Lishang who was the calmest and secretly gave Zhou Yiqiao a look, which made Zhou Yiqiao wake up.

"Senior is so complimentary."

"This recipe for the Na Yuan Bao Dan was found by me by chance in an ancient relic. Only a palm-sized portion of the tablet recording the recipe remained intact. I was able to identify the recipe with great difficulty on that incomplete tablet."

Zhou Yiqiao half-truthfully combined the inspiration he got from the Dongji Changsheng Materia Medica with a fictional ancient relic to weave an unsolvable story.
