Chapter 433 Alchemy Competition 0.5
As soon as Cheng Jiu stepped into the side room, the door slammed shut. A bright yellow mist rose before his eyes.
This is?
Cheng Jiu wrinkled his nose as a strong smell of blood wafted up.
Following the scent of blood, Cheng Jiu looked into the previously empty side room and saw a severely injured man standing there.
The man was severely injured, his dark hair soaked with blood, strand by strand. His short clothes were also stained with blood, making it impossible to discern their original color. The very slight rise and fall of the man's chest indicated that he was still alive.
Such injuries would have killed most people long ago; the man's condition clearly indicated that he was being kept alive by extremely precious elixirs.
From Cheng Jiu's perspective, two words appeared above the man's head: Save him!
Is this what she was really being assessed on?
Cheng Jiu carefully half-squatted beside the man, reached out her hand, and touched a cold arm that was warm to the touch!
It's a physical entity! It's alive!
Cheng Jiu was startled and instinctively withdrew his hand, his mind churning with a storm of thoughts. It was supposed to be just an assessment, so where did this person come from? Who is he? What is his relationship with the master of this secret realm? Could it be that the master of this secret realm sent him here?
An indescribable sense of unease welled up in Cheng Jiu's heart, and a layer of cold sweat seeped out from behind him!
The man slowly opened his eyes as Cheng Jiu looked on in surprise and uncertainty. His dark pupils held a warmth like the first rays of sunlight. He spoke as if to Cheng Jiu, or as if to someone unknown.
"Fellow Daoist Qi Yan, please don't waste your energy on me anymore... cough cough, such a useless person." The man's voice was weak, as if he was about to die.
It seemed as if someone in the void said something to him.
The man's eyes held a clarity that came with the approach of death, his warm pupils carrying a honeyed comfort: "You've done your best. To have lived this long is already a blessing from you! I'm more than content!"
It seemed as if someone in the void had said something to him again.
"Using the Seven-Leaf Jade Fire as the main ingredient? So many alchemy masters haven't been able to do it! Fellow Daoist Qi Yan, I believe you can definitely do it!"
"But as you can see, I'm dying, Fellow Daoist Qi Yan." His eyes pleaded, "In my final moments, could you take me to see the polar regions? My mother told me they're beautiful, and I've never been!"
The man was smiling, making it impossible to tell that he was on the verge of death.
Cheng Jiu watched from the sidelines like an observer. Qi Yan?
Could he be the owner of this secret realm?
That person in front of me! Could he be that person's friend?
Cheng Jiu recalled the feel of the touch, a sensation that could not be faked by an illusion!
Cheng Jiu didn't know if the person in front of him would be saved, but he should never have been here. If not, with such severe injuries, the other party had no chance of survival!
If such a person were to become friends with Qi Yan Dan Shi, even if he hadn't ascended to immortality, he would surely be a powerful figure of his own, not someone who appears here!
Cheng Jiu felt as if he were in a completely different time and space from the patient in front of him. He couldn't see her, but she could touch him directly!
so amazing!
Little did they know that outside the secret realm, a master who had just returned was looking at the secret realm with a face as dark as the bottom of a pot.
"Is this Qi Yan's secret realm? What is he going to do to my disciple?" Immortal Lord Qingxu never expected that he would see this scene upon returning from merely going to the polar regions to seek justice for his disciple.
Cheng Jiu didn't know what had happened, but couldn't he see it?
The power of the laws of time!
It places Cheng Jiu in two completely different timelines, but the past has already happened, and the other party is already dead!
If Cheng Jiu stands in the future and changes the other person's fate, the huge karmic consequences will definitely be attributed to the person who changed their fate!
Just thinking about it made Qingxu Immortal Lord completely unable to accept that his disciple was being so blatantly schemed against right under his nose!
The Qingxu Sword was drawn, its invisible power firmly locking down the secret realm in the air.
As long as Qingxu's disciple lives, no one can scheme against him! Not even ascended great powers!
