Worst Case Scenario

As for the third round, he had even less hope. In his current state, he could not continue refining pills.

Unfortunately, it seemed that he would still lose in the end.

Not only did he fail to save the Medical God sect, but he also had to leave this earth as a human sacrifice.

Hong Tao saw Duan Huai An’s dejected look and sneered. He cupped his hands toward Senior Feng.

“Senior Feng’s improved pill formula is still the best. Since the victor has been decided, can Senior announce the result now?”

Senior Feng nodded. He had already expected this outcome.

After all, he had given Hong Tao the advantage of seeing the pill formula a few days in advance. If Hong Tao failed to win with even that, then his skill would be truly lacking.

Senior Feng turned around and said to everyone, “I hereby announce that the second round’s victor is…”

Before he could finish speaking, a figure actually walked out from the smoke and dust.

“What’s the hurry? My Essence Condensing Six-Soul Pill has yet to be verified.” Senior Feng’s voice came to an abrupt halt as he stared at a figure that walked out of the smoke and dust.

It was the masked young man! He was actually still alive!

Hong Tao’s eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost, and the audience let out waves of exclamations!

He survived that explosion? How?

Ye Chen glanced at the injured Duan Huai An and felt his heart ache.

He hurriedly took out an ancient pill that he had refined in the Samsara Graveyard and handed it to Duan Huai An. “Senior Duan, this pill will make you feel better.”

“Also, with me here today, no one will harm you!”

Duan Huai An was stunned. He could sense Ye Chen’s kindness, as well as the rich medicinal aura of the pill.

He did not reach out to take it. Instead, he said, “Little brother, I appreciate your kindness, but I understand my body’s condition.”

Ye Chen had no choice but to put away the pill.

When Hong Tao saw this scene, he said, “Kid, you’re not dead. That’s good! You just said that you successfully refined the Essence Condensing Six-Soul Pill. The cauldron was destroyed, so where is your pill?”

Ye Chen’s cold eyes swept over Hong Tao. With a wave of his arm, a strong gust of wind blew past.

In an instant, the smoke and dust dissipated, after which, the cauldron entered everyone’s field of vision.

It actually did not explode!

“Impossible!” Hong Tao’s expression was horrified. That sound earlier was clearly a sign of the cauldron exploding, so why was it still intact?

Ye Chen clenched his fist and the cauldron was pulled toward him, stopping right in front of him.

“Senior Feng, please take a look!” Ye Chen gestured toward Senior Feng. Senior Feng nodded. When he took a step forward, the cauldron suddenly opened, and a pillar of light shot into the sky!

The pillar had nine rays of light!

“This is…”

Seeing this scene, Senior Feng was in shock. He stared fixedly at a nine-colored medicinal pill floating in the cauldron. Someone had actually successfully refined a Nine-Soul Pill!

This young man really knew ancient alchemy!

The word genius was insufficient to measure how monstrous this masked young man was.

“Nine Souls! There are actually nine souls! This pill is almost perfect! The young man wins! A complete victory!”

Senior Feng could not control his emotions anymore and screamed.

Anyone who saw such a stunning talent would be shocked.

Although he had received some benefits from Hong Tao, the masked young man’s value had far exceeded what he had received.

Once he recommended this kid to the Core Tower, he would also be considered to have made an excellent contribution.

His eyes were burning as he stared at Ye Chen!

Senior Feng’s voice was very loud, and the whole square heard him.

The crowd below the stage stood rooted to the ground, dead silent. They just stared at Ye Chen, not knowing what to make of the situation.

Even Duan Huai An was staring at him in shock.

He really could not figure out what kind of master in the world could nurture such an outstanding disciple that could refine such a medicinal pill at the age of twenty, and even control flames like those.

In the entire Kunlun Mountains, this young man could be considered a top-notch alchemist, and his future held unlimited possibilities!

If such a talented kid was his disciple, Duan Huai An would probably wake up smiling from ear-to-ear everyday.

“Congratulations, Senior!”

Duan Huai An hesitated for a long time, but he still bowed and cupped his hands to congratulate the masked young man.

In alchemy, those who reached the top held seniority. Therefore, this masked young man was his senior in the field of alchemy. Moreover, as the young man had won, he did not have to become a human sacrifice for Hong Tao’s alchemy. Thus, the young man had saved his life.

Ye Chen saw his master’s actions and quickly went to help him up.

“Master, you can’t do that!”

“Master?”

Duan Huai An frowned.

Ye Chen was stunned and quickly explained, “Senior Duan, you heard wrong.

I’m a junior. You can’t call me that.”

Now that there were outsiders around, he naturally could not reveal his identity.

After that, he thought of something and looked at Hong Tao, whose expression was now ferocious.

He had never thought that he would lose, especially to a kid like this.

The masked young man won both rounds, so there was no need to compete in the third round. He felt utterly humiliated!

Even the people below booed!

The foundation he had built up over the years was all destroyed!

His heart was burning with anger. He clenched his fists and his eyes were like those of a ferocious beast.

He gritted his teeth and said word by word, “Kid, since you won the bet, I must admit defeat. What is your request?”

Flames condensed between Ye Chen’s two fingers. He said calmly, “Didn’t you want to use Senior Duan as a human sacrifice? It just so happens that I’m also interested in human sacrificial alchemy. Why don’t I use you as an experiment?”

However, I’m not a vicious person. As long as you can endure my flames for

ten seconds, I won’t make things difficult for you.”

When Hong Tao heard these two sentences, he burst out laughing!

This kid wanted him to be a human sacrifice? That would never happen!

His malevolent expression turned somewhat demonic. He took a step forward and snapped his fingers, and dozens of powerful auras revealed themselves, and experts appeared, brandishing weapons and exuding killing intent!

“Brat, don’t be so arrogant! You don’t have the qualifications to request that of me!”

“No matter what, today, you and Duan Huai An will become my human sacrifices and enjoy endless pain!”

This was Hong Tao’s worst case scenario, but he would never acquiesce to fate!

Since his reputation had been dragged through the mud, there was no reason to keep his word. He would use strength and overwhelming numbers to change the outcome by force!

From now on, no one in the Land of Slaughter would dare to mention today’s matter!

When Duan Huai An saw this, he flew into a rage.

Hong Tao, do you know the consequences of doing this? Don’t tell me you want to carry a lifetime of infamy!”

“Get lost!” Hong Tao sneered. “Today, you will be the first to be sacrificed to my cauldron!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Tao forced out a drop of blood essence, and then the blood essence dispersed!

Light burst forth, and a huge cauldron appeared in mid-air, surrounded by endless flames.

Upon seeing this, Duan Huai An’s expression changed drastically.

He had never imagined that Hong Tao had a Life’s Origin Cauldron!
