“Corpse spirit flower, yin enters yang forcing yin, from Baihui acupoint, enters bone three fen, skin and bone heat melt, with brain yin rush…”
The ugly middle-aged man kept speaking from his mouth. He explained in detail the medicinal materials, human acupoints, injection flow direction, position, burning skin and bone, and other specific methods one by one.
At this moment, the corpse spirit flower was refined into liquid and began to be injected onto the slave’s Baihui acupoint on the top of his head.
“Ah!!!” A sharp, pig-slaughtering scream came from the slave’s mouth. The slave’s face showed an expression of extreme terror.
Lin Xiao’s scalp exploded. The hairs all over his body stood on end.
The opponent was refining human pills? Using living people as the main ingredient to refine pills?
However, Lin Xiao also suddenly realised that his body could not move. He could only watch helplessly as the opponent refined the medicine.
Next, it was very likely to be him.
“Chi!”
At this time, the ugly middle-aged man controlled the rehmannia with spiritual power and stuffed it into the opponent’s mouth. Phosphorescent fire calcined it, blocking the slave’s mouth tightly. The slave wanted to shout but could not. His eyes bulged, his face swelled, his features twisted, extremely painful.
Immediately after, phosphorescent fire approached the slave’s pupils and slowly burned them.
Lin Xiao watched in horror, his scalp tingling repeatedly.
Then, the ugly middle-aged man continuously refined other medicinal materials into liquid, constantly injecting them into other parts of the slave’s body. Phosphorescent fire also continuously burned various acupoints. Moreover, the methods were extremely cruel.
After all the auxiliary medicinal materials were infused, he used phosphorescent fire to slowly simmer the slave’s body. It took a full two hours before the slave died.
Finally, wrapped in phosphorescent fire and spiritual power, it was calcined and compressed, condensed into a pill.
As soon as the pill came out, a rich fragrance immediately filled the entire room.
Lin Xiao’s face was already sweating. Human pill. He had seen it mentioned in the Swallowing Heaven Spirit Emperor’s memory. Unexpectedly, now he actually saw it with his own eyes. The opponent had refined a living person into a pill.
The methods were extremely cruel.
During the refining, the opponent also explained in detail the pill formula, refining methods, flame temperature, time, and so on.
It was as if he was teaching a disciple.
Lin Xiao roughly guessed that the opponent might be imparting the human pill formula, and probably not intending to refine him.
Once the human pill formula appeared in front of the world, it would definitely cause a sensation and attract countless people to hunt it down.
At the same time, because the human pill formula used people as the main ingredient, the materials were easy to find. It could refine different grades of pills according to different cultivations, and could quickly improve cultivation. Therefore, the human pill formula would also tempt countless spirit controllers.
In other words, the human pill formula was double-sided. On one side, to oneself, it was full of endless temptation. No matter who it was, they would be tempted.
On the other side, to others, if it fell on someone else, they would spare no effort to eradicate it.
At this moment, Lin Xiao did not know whether seeing this human pill formula was a joy or a worry.
However, he had no choice. His entire body could not move. He could only let this ugly middle-aged man refine pills right in front of him and explain the methods one by one, imprinting them into his mind.
After this slave was turned into a pill, another ugly middle-aged man walked out from inside the room. The sitting ugly middle-aged man again used that person as the main ingredient to refine a pill.
But this time, the auxiliary medicines and refining methods were somewhat different.
The methods were still cruel. The time used was also less than before.
After this main ingredient was refined into a pill, another person walked out. The sitting ugly middle-aged man refined again and explained.
Lin Xiao did not know how long he had stood there. He watched the opponent refine human pills a full hundred times.
Some were slowly simmered to death, some were burned to death at once, some had extremely cruel methods, and some used freshly dead people to refine.
The refining methods and techniques were similar but not exactly the same, with countless variations.
There were even pills refined using countless dead corpses, or using severed limbs and remnants.
However, for those pills, the opponent also stated that they were not true human pills, just having similar effects.
This was to allow Lin Xiao to understand more profoundly.
There were also human pills refined directly using the opponent’s body without any auxiliary medicines.
Finally, after refining a full hundred human pills, the ugly middle-aged man clapped his hands and sighed, “The pill formula, I have already imparted to you. Whether you can refine it depends on yourself.”
“Where there is martial arts, there is battle. Where there is battle, there is death. Human pills have no good or evil. Good and evil are in the human heart. You may go.” The ugly middle-aged man waved his hand. His entire person and those pills all disappeared.
Lin Xiao’s body began to be able to move.
At this time, Lin Xiao’s heart was already shocked beyond measure.
The human pill formula had actually fallen into his hands?
He was somewhat joyful, but also had misgivings.
After all, refining pills with people was too hard for people to accept. Moreover, there was the enormous threat of leakage.
Lin Xiao’s mood was extremely complicated.
He thought for a long time but did not completely figure it out. He simply temporarily put it aside. He commanded the purple corpse puppet and stepped out of this pharmacy with himself.
“Chi!”
Stepping out of the room, the ancient city streets illuminated by moonlight outside appeared in Lin Xiao’s sight again.
However, the number of rooms in the entire ancient city had already decreased by eighty or ninety percent. One could see very far at a glance.
“How long have I been inside?” Lin Xiao wondered in his heart.
As soon as he came out, the buildings in the ancient city had almost all disappeared. Would that not mean that the treasures were about to be snatched away by others?
Of course, compared to the value of the human pill, other treasures were probably not worth mentioning.
“Chi!”
The next moment, the room behind him disappeared. All the buildings in the entire ancient city disappeared and hid.
The ancient city within a thousand li radius became an empty land.
A large number of figures all appeared in Lin Xiao’s sight.
At this moment, everyone, whether in battle or originally inside rooms, all stopped one after another.
“Ended?” Someone secretly wondered in a daze.
“Dong!”
At this time, the city wall gate slowly opened. Finally, it opened to half position.
“Go, otherwise, we won’t be able to leave later!” Someone shouted loudly. A group of people rushed violently toward the city gate direction.
Lin Xiao frowned and quickly flew toward the city gate with the purple corpse puppet.
If they did not get out quickly, it was probably not just a problem of not being able to get out.
If the people from the three major forces went out and the eighth or ninth layer Martial Emperors stood at the door, it would probably be difficult for them to leave with treasures.
Lin Xiao and the purple corpse puppet’s speed was extremely fast. In a short while, they flew to not far from the city gate. At this time, someone had already rushed toward the half-open city gate.
“Pu!”
When that person was about to rush out, it was as if he touched some force. The whole person immediately turned into a mist of blood.
“What!” Lin Xiao was shocked in his heart and quickly stopped.
This city gate, now still could not go out?
Not only Lin Xiao, everyone was shocked one after another and immediately stopped their figures.
In everyone’s sight, that bronze door slowly moved outward a bit more but stopped again.
“What is this situation?” Someone asked puzzled.
However, no one answered.
Because everyone did not know what the situation was.
The buildings inside the city had all disappeared. The city gate had also opened halfway. Logically, they should be able to go out. But why did the person who went out die at once?
No one dared to act rashly.
