My Master Knows It All

756: 226_1 756: 226_1 Cao Zhen had never failed in alchemy, and this lack of failure didn’t just refer to the alchemic process, but also included the effectiveness of the pills he crafted.

Now, he had actually failed.

Little Beiyan brought Zhu Peng to Cao Zhen, pointed at Zhu Peng, and said to him, “Master, take a look at him, will you?

Then perhaps concoct a pill for him afterwards?”

Listening to his disciple, Cao Zhen was at a loss for words.

Why should he look?

He was no doctor.

“No need to look, I’ll concoct another batch of pills for him.

In five days…

come back and get them from me.”

If the Qi Zhi Pill wasn’t effective, then he would switch to an even higher quality pill.

This time, he was going to craft an even superior pill.

However…

Five days later, Cao Zhen, looking at the once again foolishly grinning Zhu Peng brought before him by Little Beiyan, was completely flustered.

He had failed again!

Logically speaking, this shouldn’t have happened.

His second attempt at crafting a pill had taken him five days, and this wasn’t the kind of pill that deceived the Heavenly Dao; five days should have been more than enough time for him.

Yet, he still failed.

What was going on with this Zhu Peng?

For the moment, Cao Zhen didn’t know what he should do.

Neither of the pills he had given Zhu Peng had made even a slight improvement in his condition.

If there had been any improvement, Cao Zhen would know the medicinal effect was insufficient and could then concoct more advanced pills, or simply produce more of them.

The problem was, Zhu Peng showed no reaction whatsoever after taking the pills crafted by Cao Zhen.

“Forget it, go and buy some more medicinal herbs.

I’ll try to concoct another type of pill for him,” Cao Zhen said, having no choice but to attempt an even higher-level pill.

However, one month later…

“Failed again?” Cao Zhen looked at Zhu Peng, who gave only a foolish grin, even starting to suspect that the boy was feigning idiocy.

He had successively crafted three different types of pills, each of the finest quality, but none had any effect on Zhu Peng after ingestion.

But then again, there was no need for this young Zhu Peng to pretend; he was just a child from a normal family.

As for Zhu Peng’s problem, let me think it over more carefully.

Take him back with you for now,” said Cao Zhen, truly at a loss as to what pill to concoct for Zhu Peng next.

In the alchemical records of Zhang Daoling, there were indeed even higher level pills, but the required herbs were extremely rare, and furthermore, those herbs weren’t widely used, so the Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace of the Hundred Peaks Sect did not keep them in stock.

Besides, even if he managed to craft another pill, there was no guarantee it would turn Zhu Peng into a normal person.

Cao Zhen really didn’t know what the issue was with Zhu Peng; if even the pills from Zhang Daoling’s records couldn’t help, then he was out of ideas and could only have Little Beiyan take Zhu Peng back home.

In the meantime, Cao Zhen continued his alchemy while occasionally monitoring the situation of the Eclipse Demon.

However, three days later…

It was an utterly ordinary day, yet suddenly, the entire sky began to violently shake without warning.

In just a brief moment, even the Hundred Peaks Sect itself started to shake with it.

It wasn’t just a sensation of shaking; the Hundred Peaks Sect was literally quivering.

Instantly, everyone within the Hundred Peaks Sect flew into the sky, looking towards the distance.

After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the sun and the moon appeared in the void, surrounded by twinkling stars.

“This is…

a Heavenly Phenomenon!”

“Now, in the Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, how could there be such a phenomenon?”

“This cannot be the phenomenon of someone achieving the Ten Different Phenomena of Perfect Completion Golden Core.

Such a phenomenon wouldn’t cover such a vast area; I even feel like it is not within our Guardian Immortal Dynasty.”

“Currently, all those above Golden Core are in slumber, and the Heavenly Dao doesn’t permit power beyond the Golden Core.

This sort of phenomenon, I’m afraid there is only one possibility.”

“Relics!”

“Peerless relics have appeared!”

“There’s a record in the annals of our Hundred Peaks Sect, and such relics could even overturn the cultivation world.”

“I have seen the records of our Hundred Peaks Sect, and no such relics appeared during the last Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth.”

“Not in the last Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth.

In many Eras of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, such relics have not appeared.

The last time such a Heavenly Phenomenon appeared during the Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth was over a hundred thousand years ago, and the one who obtained it rapidly advanced after the end of that era, eventually founding the Bright Heart Sect!”

“Rumour has it that during the time before that, the person who acquired such a relic went on to become one of the top three experts in our world!”

“Look at the void, there’s a change occurring again.”

In the eyes of the crowd, below the sun and the moon, mountains emerged, rivers flowed, plains stretched out, and upon those plains, structures and palaces rose.

The Illusory Phenomenon persisted in the sky, not dissipating for a long time.

In that moment, the entire Guardian Immortal Dynasty, and even the surrounding dynasties, seemed as if all people in the world saw the emergence of this relic’s Illusory Phenomenon.

In an instant, the whole world plunged into frenzy.
