The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 380: Chapter 380 Jing Yan Speaks Up Chapter 380: Chapter 380 Jing Yan Speaks Up Zhou Shangyun looked towards Li Xingjiu and other Pill Masters.

“Thank you all!” Zhou Shangyun said, clasping his hands in gratitude.

“You’re too kind, Prince!” Everyone spoke one after another.

Next, Li Xingjiu and the other Pill Masters came forward to diagnose Mr.

Zhou Tian.

Among the Pill Masters present in the room, aside from Jing Yan, the least skilled was a fifth-level Alchemist.

In the realm of Lanqu County City, they were all prominent figures, each with real skills, not just swindlers and con artists.

They also each had their own specialties in Alchemy Dao.

It took more than two hours for all the Pill Masters to complete their diagnosis of Old Master Zhou.

“Old Master Zhou’s Martial Arts Meridians are indeed blocked.

At present, it seems that about a third of his meridians are problematic.

Just as Ji Yue Pill King mentioned, these Martial Arts Meridians of Old Master Zhou are being eroded by a strange energy.

If we can’t dissolve this energy, even if it is temporarily controlled, it is merely treating the symptoms, not the root cause!” Xu Dong was the first to express his concerns, his face serious, genuinely appearing concerned for Zhou Tiandu.

Hearing Xu Dong’s words, everyone nodded.

They also recognized the issue.

“Among you, does anyone know what that energy in Old Master Zhou’s Martial Arts Meridians is?

Or how it was caused?” Ji Yue looked at the others and asked slowly.

He asked this on purpose!

Even he couldn’t identify that energy, and he didn’t believe anyone else here could surpass him.

“That’s hard to say.

There are so many different energies in the world, and even some elixirs might contain energies we don’t understand.

Therefore, figuring out the truth could be extremely difficult,” said Li Xingjiu, the president of the Alchemist Association, shaking his head.

The others also shook their heads.

Clearly, none of the Pill Masters in this room could identify the bizarre energy in Zhou Tian’s Martial Arts Meridians.

They only knew that this energy had a strong erosive power and was damaging Zhou Tiandu’s meridians.

“Mr.

Ji Yue!

Pill Masters!

Do you have any way to remove this energy?” Zhou Shangyun asked, raising his eyebrows.

“I do have a suggestion!” Lu Ru said, his eyes flashing as he spoke.

“Speak quickly, Pill Master Lu Ru!” Zhou Shangyun urged, his gaze intensifying.

“There is an elixir called the Green Maiden Pill, which is a fifth-level elixir, and it should be effective,” Lu Ru said, his gaze shifting across the others, slowly speaking.

The Green Maiden Pill was a relatively rare elixir.

It was mentioned in some ancient Alchemy Classics.

Most of those present had read numerous Alchemy Classics, and many were aware of the Green Maiden Pill as a fifth-level elixir.

According to the effects of the Green Maiden Pill, it indeed held potential to suppress the strange energy in Zhou Tiandu’s Martial Arts Meridians.

“That’s not appropriate!

Green Maiden Pill, that’s not suitable!” Ji Yue waved his hand.

“The Green Maiden Pill might indeed be effective.

But this elixir will not only suppress the strange energy in Old Master Zhou’s meridians but also suppress his own Primordial Energy.

If Old Master Zhou activates his Primordial Energy, it might cause a backlash, making the strange energy accelerate the erosion of the Martial Arts Meridians.

Moreover, even if Old Master Zhou never uses his Primordial Energy again, the Green Maiden Pill might not successfully suppress that energy,” Ji Yue explained.

Lu Ru frowned repeatedly, his face also turning slightly unpleasant.

The brilliance he showed just moments ago was instantly extinguished.

If it were someone else who said that the Green Maiden Pill was ineffective, he might have argued.

But with Ji Yue saying it wasn’t suitable, he had no courage to argue.

“I think, however, that the Dragon Saliva Pill would be suitable!

However, the Dragon Saliva Pill is a very difficult sixth-level elixir to refine,” Xu Dong said at this time.

The Dragon Saliva Pill was a sixth-level elixir, but its refining difficulty was exceedingly high.

Most sixth-level Alchemists were unable to refine this elixir.

Moreover, one of the main materials of the Dragon Saliva Pill, derived from a very rare Golden Pattern Spiritual Beast, might not even be available in the Prince Manor.

Upon hearing Xu Dong’s proposal of the Dragon Saliva Pill, everyone pondered deeply, and soon several nodded continuously, apparently believing in the remarkable effects of using the Dragon Saliva Pill.

“Using the Dragon Saliva Pill is indeed the better choice.

Its medicinal power is quite gentle, and it doesn’t have any side effects on the Martial Artist’s Primordial Energy,” even Li Xingjiu thought the Dragon Saliva Pill was a good choice.

Hearing Li Xingjiu’s words, Xu Dong instantly smiled triumphantly, his eyes narrowing into slits.

If his proposal was accepted, that would indeed be a great merit!

“However, the materials required for the Dragon Saliva Pill are very rare.

Other materials are manageable, but one called ‘Dragon Saliva’ is not easy to obtain,” Li Xingjiu continued speaking.

“Dragon Saliva?” Zhou Shangyun thought for a moment, “If I remember correctly, there is Dragon Saliva in the Prince Manor, obtained by chance once and never used.”

Dragon Saliva was a very precious material, which is why Zhou Shangyun could remember it quite clearly.

“If there is Dragon Saliva, then perhaps we should give it a try.

However, the difficulty of refining Dragon Saliva Pills is quite high, and if the refining fails, wasting the Dragon Saliva, then…” Li Xingjiu’s words trailed off here.

Everyone understood Li Xingjiu’s meaning.

“Hehe, I can refine Dragon Saliva Pills, and succeeding the first time won’t be a big problem.

However, I don’t think Dragon Saliva Pills are quite appropriate.

Their medicinal effects are mild and cause no side effects to Primordial Energy.

If the strange energy in the old master’s meridians were ordinary, using Dragon Saliva Pills would be very effective.

But the problem is that the strange energy in the old master’s meridians is very overbearing, and the effects of the Dragon Saliva Pill are not enough to control it!” Ji Yue shook his head.

Ji Yue Dan King is right; if it were against run-of-the-mill energy, Dragon Saliva Pills could be miraculous.

But the energy in the old master’s meridians is indeed very overbearing and highly erosive.

I’m afraid the effects of the Dragon Saliva Pills will not be so good.” Li Xingjiu nodded again in agreement.

Li Xingjiu had also sensed the strange energy in the Complete Heaven Martial Arts Meridians just a moment ago, and it was indeed domineering.

Zhou Shangyun’s brows were tightly knitted.

“Mr.

Ji Yue, do you have a solution?” Zhou Shangyun looked at Ji Yue.

“I have a method, but I’m not very confident in it,” said Ji Yue, looking at the other alchemists, “Has anyone heard of Moon Lotus Pills?”

“Moon Lotus Pills?”

“I’ve never heard of it!”

“Is this Moon Lotus Pill a high-level elixir?”

Several alchemists spoke up.

High-level elixirs are those above sixth-level, including seventh-level elixirs.

Nearly everyone present were fifth-level alchemists, except for Li Xingjiu who was a sixth-level alchemist.

If it were a high-level elixir, it was quite normal for them to be unfamiliar with it.

“I know about Moon Lotus Pills; they are a fifth-level elixir.” Li Xingjiu spoke, “However, although this pill is only a fifth-level elixir, it seems that its refining method has already been lost, right?

It’s been a thousand years since Moon Lotus Pills were last seen.”

“Hehe, indeed, Moon Lotus Pills have disappeared from outside view.

But in Pill Country, it still exists.

And coincidentally, I can refine Moon Lotus Pills.

What I’m really worried about now is that the medicinal properties of Moon Lotus Pills are very gentle and Yin.

If we use Moon Lotus Pills, it could possibly cause irreversible damage to the old master’s body,” Ji Yue explained.

Li Xingjiu’s gaze sharpened slightly.

Moon Lotus Pills hadn’t appeared in public view for a very long time.

Unexpectedly, the method to refine them still existed in Pill Country.

Pill Country really was worthy of being the Alchemy Dao Sacred Land on Heavenly Origin Continent.

Probably many lost elixir refining methods still existed within Pill Country.

Li Xingjiu’s yearning for Pill Country deepened.

For most alchemists, there is nothing more attractive than allowing them to further understand and explore Alchemy Dao.

“Mr.

Ji Yue, how confident are you?” Zhou Shangyun hurriedly asked.

“Prince, I dare not claim to be very confident!

Honestly, I cannot determine the origin of the strange energy in the old master’s meridians.

Not to mention whether Moon Lotus Pills will harm the old master’s body; even the confidence in dispelling that strange energy, I cannot be sure of,” Ji Yue shook his head.

He definitely didn’t dare to be overconfident!

If he were to boast, and manage to produce Moon Lotus Pills, but after the old master Zhou Tian took them, they showed no effect.

Not only having no effect, but if they also damaged Zhou Tian’s body, he couldn’t guarantee that Zhou Shangyun would let him off the hook.

Therefore, he absolutely made no guarantees.

This way, even if the treatment with Moon Lotus Pills ultimately failed for Zhou Tian, Zhou Shangyun and Zhou Tian would have no reason to punish him.

And if it succeeded, his contribution wouldn’t be erased either, so it was better to play it safe.

Hearing Ji Yue’s words, Zhou Shangyun couldn’t help but feel disappointed again.

If Ji Yue was quite confident, Zhou Shangyun would definitely believe Ji Yue wouldn’t say so.

Even if there was only a 70-80% chance, Ji Yue would definitely affirm its effectiveness.

After the treatment, Ji Yue’s contribution would appear considerable.

Now seeing Ji Yue’s attitude, the hope of Moon Lotus Pills being effective was likely not more than 50%, or even possibly just 10-20%.

This was too risky!

“If there is no other method, let’s try the Moon Lotus Pills!

My old bones are already like this; I’m not afraid of being put through the wringer,” Zhou Tian said with a smile.

This was said for Ji Yue and the other alchemists to hear, as well as for Zhou Shangyun.

Zhou Tian knew his own physical condition best.

He understood that if left to the erosion of the energy in the meridians, he would become a cripple within a year and a half or might even die.

“Sigh!

Then, Mr.

Ji Yue, please refine the Moon Lotus Pills!

Just say whatever materials are needed, and I will have someone prepare them immediately,” Zhou Shangyun sighed, and looked at Ji Yue again.

“Prince, if you don’t mind, let me examine the old master’s condition?”

At this moment, a voice suddenly interrupted.

Everyone in the room paused slightly, that voice sounded very young, certainly not from any of these older individuals.

So inside this room, it seemed only Jing Yan and Bai Xue were young, and clearly, the voice was male.
