Chapter 31: A Slap to Death
"His Holiness is mysterious and unpredictable, is it not possible for an old slave to speculate?"
That old eunuch Tian Bao respectfully said, "The old slave has some idea that the reason why His Holiness wants to come to the Pill King's Mansion instead of some other place must be that he intends to refine a kind of spirit elixir in the Pill King's Mansion."
"Refinement?"
Su Che revealed a thoughtful look and softly said, "The Medicine King's Mansion's alchemy is unique and gathers the world's elixirs, what herbs are not available? Father only needs to give a command to have the Medicine King's Mansion refine it, why would he need to personally descend? Could it be that the herbs required for this kind of elixir are not even available in the Pill King's Mansion, but rather, the Father Emperor himself has found the elixir? Then what exactly is the elixir Father Emperor he wants to refine?"
Eunuch Tian Bao lowered his eyebrows, "The spirit elixir that His Majesty is going to refine must be extraordinary, or else he would not have come in person, Your Highness and wait for a few days, when His Majesty comes, he will naturally know."
At noon, the sun had just slipped over his head, Jiang Nan immediately stopped cultivating, only to feel the true qi running in his body, he could not help but let out a clear shout, transforming into the first style of the River Moon Breaking Waves Technique, the Great River coming out of the deep valley.
Only to see his true qi rushing out from between his hands, forming a stream of air that was vaguely visible to the naked eye, as if a miniature version of the Great River was rushing and whistling, flowing out from the deep valley!
This was the power of martial arts practitioners when they cultivated to the Qi Refining realm, true qi could take shape and naturally multiply in power!
When Qi Shan fought with Jiang Nan in the abandoned mine, his true qi had begun to vaguely display this kind of vision, but it was far less clear than Jiang Nan's vision.
Jiang Nan then transformed into the second style, Bright Moon Hanging in the Sky, only to see his True Qi mixed like the moon, rising up like a bright moon hanging in the sky!
The great river accompanied the tide!
The bright moon shines on the great river!
The divine moon shines brightly!
It shines on the boundless earth!
Jiang Nan executed a series of moves, the true qi running unimpeded, but the fifth and sixth styles of the River Moon Breaking Waves Technique are all body-quenching techniques, and do not have much power, the Divine Moon Evolving Great Light is the true qi transformed into a bright moon, rising from the spine, up the spine, and finally landing between the eyebrows, shining brightly.
The Universal Illumination of the Infinite Earth is the Divine Moon shining brightly, shining all around the body, quenching away impurities in the body.
Jiang Nan already had the Doodle Divine Flame and the Demonic Prison Xuan Tire Scripture, refining his body's hair and skin to be pure and free of impurities, and these two styles of the River Moon Breaking Waves Technique were not of much use to him.
"The River Stream Stone does not turn away!"
His figure suddenly lurched and he executed the seventh stance of the River Moon Breaking Waves Technique, his body was like a rock, his true qi was like a great river surrounding his body, the meaning of the River Flowing Stone Not Turning was that his body was like a rock, letting the great river wash over him, I would not move.
This is a purely defensive move, different from the Elephant King Divine Pile created by Jiang Nan, although the Elephant King Divine Pile also has a very strong defense, but the defense is accompanied by a powerful attack, while the "River Flows, Stone Doesn't Turn" move uses the entire body's true qi for self-defense, and there is no attack, so in terms of defensive power, it is also one step above the Elephant King Divine Pile.
However, Jiang Nan had not yet reached the realm of Inner Dipper, although he could use the move "River Flows Without Turning", the defensive power of his true qi was not strong, and he could not achieve the realm of body like a rock and river flows without moving.
He dispersed this move, his body shape changed, transformed into a dragon coming out of the abyss, and performed the Dragon Tiger Elephant Power Technique, the true qi transformed into the line of dragon and tiger divine elephants, the tiger roared and the dragon roared, the divine elephants roared, and in the blink of an eye he performed the Dragon Tiger Elephant Power Technique up to the sixth style of the Elephant King Divine Pile, and the move unfolded, and in every direction, there was the trunks of elephants transformed by the true qi, and whips were drawn and wrestled with a thumping sound!
Jiang Nan's spine, on the other hand, was like a divine elephant's leg pillar, making his entire body rooted in the earth, a stark difference from Jiang Liushi's unchanged pure defense.
Then, his figure lurched and fell into meditation, and in his mind, he began to deduce the seventh stance of the Dragon and Tiger Elephant Power Technique, the Dragon Fishing Jiao.
Legend had it that the Jiao Dragon was cunning by nature, and when it wanted to eat a dragon turtle, it would use its whiskers to dangle into the water to make the dragon turtle think that it was food, and then when the dragon turtle swallowed it, it would fish out the dragon turtle and eat it.
The trick that Jiang Nan wanted to create was to maximize the ferocity and cunning of the scaly dragon, granting the enemy a bait as if dropping the dragon turtle, and when the opponent ate the bait, he would kill the opponent as if he were a vicious scaly dragon!
He had not eaten or slept since he had been refining pills, and when he was hungry, he directly ate some Fire Spirit Pills, although pills like Fire Spirit Pills and Body Nourishing Pills could no longer drive out the impurities in his body, they were still more than enough to replenish his energy.
If he was tired, he would eat a few Yun Shen Dan or Shen You Dan, or meditate for a few moments, but in a short while, he would be energized again.
"It's good to be an alchemist ......"
Jiang Nan finally pioneered the style of Jiao Long Fishing Turtle, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "That old shopkeeper at the herb store said that Dan and Wu can't cultivate the same thing, it's simply misleading, who said that Dan and Wu can't cultivate the same thing? My Dan and martial arts are in the same cultivation, but on the contrary, it's faster, smoother, and more smooth than my previous cultivation!"
If that old shopkeeper had heard this, he would have cried without tears, which one of the others hadn't stumbled and fallen thousands of times in refining pills? Even for veteran alchemists with decades of experience, there were often times when they produced a ruined furnace, and it was not uncommon for the furnace to explode.
Spiritual pills are worth a lot of money, precisely because the success rate is too low, refining ten percent of the pills is only a minority, and the number of alchemists who have been delayed in their martial arts cultivation is even more numerous.
Jiang Nan is the only one who is blessed with a unique talent, the first time he starts is ten percent of the Dan, there has never been a failure, the value of the spirit of the Dan, but he is like sugar beans generally want to eat, naturally, the speed of cultivation is faster.
"After refining the Sherry Spirit Pill, I will no longer be restricted to only being able to cultivate in the morning, but at any time, I can cultivate anytime, anywhere."
Jiang Nan took out a Sherry Spirit Pill and said in his heart, "This Sherry Spirit Pill has 60% more medicinal power than the petals of the Golden Lotus of the Buddha's Hand, so if I'm not careful, it will burst me, so is it better to eat or not to eat ......"
Although the Devil Prison Xuan Tire Scripture was strong, although the cultivation speed was fast, but only being able to cultivate in the morning limited his cultivation advancement, while other things such as the Qi Replenishing Dan and Qi Benefiting Dan were not able to enter his eyes because of the low quality of the dan and the slow speed of refining. Only the Sherry Spirit Pills could provide him with sufficiently powerful medicinal power.
Moreover, he still had more than ten furnaces of Sherry Spirit Pills yet to be refined, and ensuring that the furnace would not explode from the refining of so many Spirit Pills would require his cultivation to be able to support it, and raising his cultivation was crucial for him. Thus, he also urgently needed to take the Sherwood Spirit Pill to raise his cultivation now.
"Sister Jiang Xue said that using Spirit Pills to raise cultivation is not the right way, Spirit Pills are only suitable for breaking through bottlenecks and replenishing cultivation when cultivation is drastically depleted, whereas if I don't raise my cultivation, I'll have to spend a lot of time recovering my cultivation with each furnace of Sherwood Spirit Pills ......"
Jiang Nan hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth as he swallowed this Sherry Spirit Pill into his stomach. To do a good job, one must first sharpen his tools, and after his cultivation level increased, he would be able to refine pills with greater ease and speed.
"Damn!"
When this Sherry Spirit Pill entered his abdomen, an endless amount of medicinal power immediately erupted out steeply, even more violent than the mere petals of the Buddha's Hand Golden Lotus, and the medicinal power erupted even faster!
Jiang Nan immediately knew that it was not good, such raging and surging medicinal power was definitely beyond his body's tolerance!
He immediately urged the Devil's Prison Xuan Tire Scripture with all his might, the rolling medicinal power in his body rushed, constantly converted by the Devil's Prison Xuan Tire Scripture into true qi, and his strength increased wildly and soared, one tiger's strength increasing by one tiger's strength.
This kind of speed was something he had never dared to imagine before!
More medicinal power melted away, filling his body hair and skin, and even rushing into his flesh and bones, this medicinal power accumulated more and more, if it could not be refined, sooner or later, it would exceed the limit of his body's tolerance!
Fortunately, his body was much stronger than when he seized the Golden Lotus of Buddha's Hand, and he could still suppress the medicinal power, but if he exceeded the limit, his skin would explode, and even his muscles, sinews, bones, and periosteum would all be cracked or even burst by the medicinal power!
"I still underestimated the medicinal power of the Sherry Spirit Pill, I didn't expect that the medicinal power of a single Sherry Spirit Pill would be so strong, even beyond my body's tolerance! Vent it out, the excess medicinal power must be vented out!"
Jiang Nan took a long breath, this was the Pill King's Mansion, if he vented out here and wreaked havoc, it would be a bit noisy. He was hesitating, but at this moment, he suddenly only heard the sound of chaotic footsteps, the door of the elegant house was kicked open, only to see Mu Qinnan, Lu Zhongxiang and five slave-like people striding in.
Although these five slaves were underlings, they were high and mighty, dressed in brocade-clothed flying fish suits, with a stance that was even bigger and more arrogant than that of the children of a family, and were obviously from an extraordinary background. Their cultivation was not weak, they were all experts of the Qi Refining Realm!
Qi refining realm of martial arts experts although not rare, but mostly for the clan children of the family valves, slaves can be cultivated to the realm of Qi refining, will already have an extraordinary status, enough to do on the stewardship and other positions.
These five slaves are all qi refining realm, but also give people as slaves, it can be seen that the master's value of the low position to exceed the Qi Wang Fu and other families. At the head of the group was a brocade-robed old man, even Mu Qinnan and Lu Zhongxiang treated him with respect, obviously the power behind this old man was extremely great.
"You are Jiang Zichuan?"
That brocade-robed old eunuch was Chief Eunuch Xiao, with an arrogant face, he sneered with a sharp voice: "Jiang Zichuan, we have been ordered by His Highness to come to settle the grudges with you and Mr. Mu Qinnan, Mr. Lu Zhongxiang, why don't you pay your respects when you see us?"
"You are eunuchs?" Jiang Nan asked with slight curiosity, forcing down the medicine.
General Manager Xiao's face reddened and he said furiously, "What did you say?"
"You are eunuchs?"
Jiang Nan patiently explained, "Eunuch means eunuch ......"
"We know, we don't need you to explain!"
General Manager Xiao was furious and shouted shrilly, "What we mean is, you actually dare to say that we are eunuchs ......"
Jiang Nan vaguely only felt that the medicinal power in his body had some tendency to be suppressed, his heart gradually became anxious, and he asked rhetorically, "Could it be that you are not?"
"We are eunuchs ......"
Xiao chief said this, also feel some wrong, face red as pig liver, stern voice: "Our family by the second prince's order to come, is on behalf of the second prince, Jiang Zichuan, you still do not kneel down to salute to thank you?"
Jiang Nan was stunned, "The Second Prince is also a eunuch?"
Governor Xiao and the others shouted angrily, reprimanding him for his treachery, Jiang Nan laughed coldly, "Since the Second Prince is not a eunuch, why do I need to salute a eunuch? If you want me to salute and thank you, go castrate the Second Prince first!"
In his heart, he really didn't have half a good feeling towards this Second Prince who came out of nowhere, these eunuchs said that they were resolving a grudge, but the moment they came up, they made him kneel, bullying him too much, it was clear that they were under the orders of that Second Prince, coming to pick a fight, and even wanted his life in order to pull in the Mu and Lu families!
"Jiang Zichuan, you really are eloquent and good at fiddling with right and wrong. The Second Prince heard that you sneak attacked Young Master Mu Qinnan Mu, injuring Young Master Mu and forming a grudge, so His Highness, in keeping with the intention of turning a war of words into peace, asked us to come and mediate with the two of you. Now it seems that it is unnecessary."
A murderous streak was in Chief Xiao's eyes as he coldly laughed, "Are you going to kneel down and die on your own, or do you want us to do it ourselves?"
Mu Qin Nan laughed loudly, striding towards Jiang Nan, gloating, "Surname Jiang, you think you can do whatever you want just because you rely on the Fourth Prince as a big mountain? This time when the Second Prince came, even if he killed you, the Fourth Prince wouldn't even dare to fart for you! This time I want to see who will come to your rescue ......"
Whew!
Jiang Nan steeply flipped his hand, a palm ruthlessly covered down, like a large iron gate weighing thousands of kilograms clamped with a heavy and incomparable wind sound, a palm slapped on the top of Mu Qinnan's head, booing with a soft sound, slapping Mu Qinnan's entire body like a nail, ruthlessly slapping it into the soil, leaving only a head exposed outside!
Mu Qinnan's eyes were rounded, blood spurting out of his seven orifices, even in death, he did not expect that Jiang Nan would actually not give him the chance to finish a sentence, directly slapping him to death with a palm!
