Chapter 979 – Can't Avoid the Enemy

 

Instantly, the fragrant scent filled the entire hall.

"These are indeed divine pills!"

Hu Bugui took one look and immediately cried out jubilantly.

Ye Qingyu also nodded his head in excitement.

This was great!

These pill furnaces truly contained divine pills.

Based on their appearance and the scent they emitted, these pills were definitely peerless medicinal pills.

Ye Qingyu reached out to collect them.

All of a sudden, a bright white light pounced toward the pill furnace from behind them with its mouth wide open. It curled its tongue and more than a dozen light purple pills were sucked into its stomach. He chewed them loudly like large beans and swallowed them all. A fragrant scent wafted from his mouth and an abundant yuan essence aura burst forth from the medicinal pills that it crushed between its teeth.

"Little Nine!"

"Silly dog!"

Ye Qingyu and Hu Bugui both exclaimed in horror.

"Woof! Ha ha ha!" Silly dog Little Nine stood next to the pill furnace after it pulled off its sneak attack and chewed the divine pills with all its might. After it swallowed them in one mouthful, it shot them a smug smile.

It had already formulated this plan earlier and had lain in wait for the right moment to snatch those pills the moment the lid of the pill furnace was opened.

"Woof… obviously, only a divine dog like myself would be worthy of eating these divine pills, ha ha ha. Human, you are too foolish!" Then, its eyes turned furtively and it suddenly turned to charge toward the black lotus plate once more.

However, this time Ye Qingyu caught it in time.

"Little Nine." He reached out to grab it by its neck and hauled it away from the lotus plate.

This dog was simply recklessly wasting these divine pills. It even swallowed so many of those pills in one shot.

Furthermore, they had yet to figure out what exactly were the effects of these pills.

Hu Bugui quickly carefully collected the remaining ninety over pills with an indignant look on his face. He looked at the silly dog disdainfully and yelled, "You… I can't believe these divine pills of the highest quality were used to feed a dog! It is practically a crime that these pills were wasted and you still swallowed them all. Those pills are totally wasted on you!"

Ye Qingyu was also dumbfounded and casually flung Little Nine aside.

He should have known this silly dog would harbor designs on the pills. What a waste of those good pills.

Little Nineg leaned against the legs of the pill furnace. It wasn't angry but shot a proud sidelong glance at the both of them as it retorted, "What do you mean by saying those pills are wasted on me? Ah? Chief bandit, what are you trying to say? Woof, I'm a divine dog too so these pills were meant for me. You are the one who isn't worthy of these pills. Ha ha ha, those who make the first move will be at a advantage. He he, these pills are extremely potent. Ha ha ha, I can feel a surge of warm qi flowing from my stomach to my head. Woof, I'm about to become an Immortal, ha ha ha ha…"

It was extremely excited.

Hu Bugui gnashed his teeth in annoyance.

Then, something odd happened.

Little Nine's eyes suddenly darkened and its body stiffened. Its limbs started to twitch uncontrollably and mouthfuls of white foam frothed from its mouth.

"Uh… why do I feel like my entire body is going numb? Am I really going to become an Immortal? Uh… I can't move anymore… Boo hoo hoo," before it could finish his sentence, its face filled with surprise as the realization hit it. Its eyes widened and it foamed madly from its mouth. It froze on the spot as though it had been fossilized, just like it was dead.

What was happening?

Ye Qingyu and Hu Bugui were astonished.

Was Little Nine trying to trick them again?

Its acting was far too realistic for it to be pretending. They clearly sensed that there was no energy wave emitting from Little Nine at all and even his life force had disappeared. It was definitely not putting on an act.

Ye Qingyu was also shocked and quickly went to check on it.

When he touched it, he realized that Little Nine's body was still warm.

As his palm pressed against its stomach, he could clearly feel its heartbeat. He placed his hand under the dog's nose and could also feel it breathing. It seemed like Little Nine was still alive and it wasn't dead yet.

Upon closer observation, he noticed that Little Nine's eyes were still turning around.

It was clearly conscious and in a state of panic, but for some reason, it was unable to move.

Ye Qingyu thought it was extremely odd that Little Nine's vital signs had completely disappeared and he didn't show any signs of life. If he didn't touch it but instead observed it with his divine sense or his naked eyes, he would have definitely thought that Little Nine was dead for it was no different from a rock.

This was really strange.

"Could those Immortal pills be poisoned?" Hu Bugui said uncertainly.

"I don't think so," Ye Qingyu said as he shook his head. "No one knows how long these pill furnaces have been at [Tusita Palace] and their seal looked as though it was from the Fiendgod Age, so if these pills were indeed poisoned, Little Nine would have already lost its life…" Ye Qingyu said as he took a purple Immortal pill from Hu Bugui's hand and examined it carefully.

He was also extremely knowledgeable when it came to the art of alchemy.

Moments later—

"This isn't a poison pill and there's no poison in it," Ye Qingyu said confidently. "It contains a shocking power and shreds of the power of laws. It does indeed look like the work of the god of alchemy back then. Medicinal pills are categorized into medicinal pills, spiritual pills and divine pills. These pills are definitely divine pills but I'm still not sure what exactly its effects are."

Hu Bugui breathed a sigh of relief at Ye Qingyu's words.

Although he had always been bickering with Little Nine, he still thought of it as his friend.

Ye Qingyu dug out a jade bottle and split the remaining pills into four portions. The first three portions were the same but the fourth portion was slightly lesser than the previous three. Then he said, "We've entered this place together with brother Nan Tieyi and this dog so we will split all the treasures we've obtained by four. Since this silly dog had already eaten seventeen pills earlier, it will receive a smaller portion of these pills and I'll keep brother Nan Tieyi's pills on his behalf. What do you think of this, brother Hu Bugui?"

Hu Bugui was stunned and said, "This… is too much. All I've done was to follow you and I didn't even do anything. Three pills will be enough for me."

Ye Qingyu smiled and didn’t make any further explanations as he passed Hu Bugui's portion to him, "Please don't stand on ceremony, brother Hu Bugui."

Hu Bugui couldn’t dissuade him, so he accepted the pills.

"Hm, the pills within this pill furnace are a little odd. They contain the essence of the laws but there are obvious side-effects after ingesting them. Um, I'll name them Deathlike Pills. One will fall into a deathlike coma after ingesting them which is a strange effect but if taken well, it might even produce miraculous effects," Ye Qingyu said contemplatively.

He placed the stiff silly dog on his shoulder, then continued to observe the other pill furnaces.

He quickly followed his earlier example and employed the occult technique engraved within the one hundred eight ancient characters on the [Cloud Top Cauldron] to break the seal and open another pill furnace.

This pill furnace was slightly bigger than the pill furnace he opened earlier but it contained fewer pills. There were approximately sixty pills and each pill was as big as a longan. They were dark green in color just like round pearls carved from jade and they were so shiny that he could see his reflection. There were markings inside those pills that resembled Bodhi trees and they looked extremely beautiful. Every single pill emitted abundant life energy, as though it was alive.

"It is as green as jade and its life energy as abundant as the ocean. The pills within this pill furnace seem to be divine pills that could replenish one's energy," Ye Qingyu mused after carefully examining them.

Hu Bugui was full of smiles as well.

However, after what had happened to Little Nine earlier, they didn't dare to eat those pills recklessly.

Little Nine's body was still frozen stiff and it lay prone on Ye Qingyu's shoulder but its eyes roved hungrily as it stared at those dark green divine pills. Unfortunately, it wasn't able to eat those pills and saliva dripped from its mouth. It regretted its earlier decision to eat those Deathlike Pills. Now that he was in this frozen and deathlike state, it couldn't eat anything at all but could only stare helplessly at those pills and it was consumed with remorse.

Ye Qingyu ignored the silly dog and divided these pills into four portions, just as he did earlier. Then, he handed Hu Bugui one portion.

He then continued to open the other pill furnaces.

Soon, thirty minutes had passed.

He had opened six consecutive pill furnaces and found pills of a variety of colors and auras. The things these pills had in common was that all these pills exuded abundant Immortal qi and emitted a fragrant scent that refreshed one's senses. One whiff of this fragrance was enough to make both of them feel refreshed and energetic. Their inner yuan flowed even more smoothly and their yuan qi had also visibly increased.

"Ha ha ha…"Hu Bugui was beaming brightly. He was so elated that he could no longer speak but merely laughed foolishly.

Ye Qingyu had to take a short break.

After all, he had to utilize the occult technique from the one hundred eight ancient characters consistently, so it had taken a considerable strain on him.

Moments later—

Ye Qingyu opened the ninth pill furnace.

This was the largest pill furnace amongst those that he had opened thus far and the moment the lid lifted, a crimson red divine radiance shot out from it. This red flowing light flew in all directions from this pill furnace toward the depths of the Bagua Formation…

"Oh no." Hu Bugui was shocked.

Fortunately, Ye Qingyu had been prepared. His body flashed, then he captured this red radiance in his hand.

The light in his hand burned like hot coals but on a closer look, he saw that it was a round pill that was as red as fire. Its outer layer swirled with flames and clouds as though it was delicately carved with a thin pen, and it seemed hollow inside. He could vaguely make out red flames that roared brightly within it. It was extremely magical.

"This is the finished product of a divine pill."

Ye Qingyu was stunned for a moment, then exhilaration washed over him.

Although the pills that he had obtained from the earlier eight pill furnaces were also divine pills of varying shapes, colors and auras, they were considered lower grade divine pills because they merely contained shreds of the power of laws. However, the power of laws contained within this fiery red medicinal pill was very much complete. It was truly the finished product of a divine pill.

The red flames beneath the outer layer of this medicinal pill were the complete laws of fire.

The pill master who refined this pill must have been extremely remarkable to be able to refine the laws of flames and contain them within this pill.

This pill would be the ultimate tonic to any expert who cultivated fire style martial arts techniques. It could even be considered a most precious treasure.

Ye Qingyu who was a pill master himself knew that the true potential of this fiery divine pill didn't lie in ingesting it but its potential lay in battle.

Yes, it could be used in battle!

Those who weren't familiar with alchemy would assume that all medicinal pills were meant for consumption but they didn't know that there was a type of divine pill that was different from the ordinary divine pills. They contained the concentrated essence of laws and could be used as divine weapons to become precious battle treasures. A true master alchemist merely needed to possess some pill controlling secret technique to be able to activate this fiery divine pill and utilize its laws of fire to kill the enemy.

This was the true mystery behind the divine pill.

The fiery divine pill in his hand was a battle divine pill.

Unfortunately, it was the only one of its kind.

Ye Qingyu looked at Hu Bugui.

Hu Bugui got a fright and immediately waved his hands. "Don't look at me, I don't want that… there's only one divine pill so it should be yours. I've already gained loads from following you so it'd be inhumane if I continued extracting treasures from you. Even if you give it to me, I wouldn't be shameless enough to accept it… It's yours, it's yours. Take it. To be honest, I prefer the process of hunting for treasure as compared to obtaining the actual treasure itself. It's exciting and risky! Ha ha ha!"

Ye Qingyu smiled.

Old Hu Bugui was right.

Even if he gave this fiery battle divine pill to Hu Bugui, he would not be able to wield it to its fullest potential.

Therefore, Ye Qingyu did not argue any further and kept this divine pill for himself.

He still hadn't found the technique to control this fiery battle divine pill but from his discoveries earlier, he believed that the answer would lie within the occult techniques of the one hundred eight ancient characters. He had always felt that this [Cloud Top Cauldron] was way too mysterious and contained huge secrets. Just this one hundred eight ancient characters occult technique would be enough to perform miraculous feats.

"Hm? There are other things within this pill furnace…"

Hu Bugui peered into the ninth pill furnace and discovered something new. He reached inside and dug out some residue out of curiosity. The residue he dug out were like wood shavings. They were slightly damp and emitted a mysterious fragrance. They were crimson red in color with rich fire power. The moment he dug these residues out of the pill furnace, abundant energy surged like the ocean.

Ye Qingyu was elated when he saw that.

"This is the residue from the pill refining process. They still contain their divine properties and are definitely considered treasures. They make great tonics with the ability to affect one's cultivation and are comparable to divine-level origin crystals," he said with a smile. "Brother Hu Bugui, you may take the divine residue. I'm sure you'll put them to good use."

"Alright!" Hu Bugui didn't stand on ceremony this time.

He reached out to continue digging out the residue from the pill furnace.

Just then ——

Swish!

A ray of flowing light that was full of killing intent charged toward them and completely shrouded Hu Bugui within it.

Ye Qingyu turned pale, "Watch out…"

Someone had launched a sneak attack.

Ye Qingyu hastily raised his hand to catch the flowing light with his bare hands.

"am!

There was a muffled sound.

The flowing light exploded Ye Qingyu's palm to reveal a yuan qi dagger.

"Hm?" There was a shocked exclamation from the entrance of the main hall.

Then, the door to the main hall opened and a group of people entered the hall.

Their leader was a young and handsome man with an arrogant attitude. His eyes were filled with unmistakable contempt and disdain.

This was the young man who had arrogantly proclaimed that Ye Qingyu was not fit to enter the Reincarnation Hall before the Reincarnation Hall of the Chaos Demon Emperor descended and also declared that he would kill Ye Qingyu.

it was truly a small world – one just had to run into the enemy.

They had met here again.

"I can't believe both of you useless beings managed to find the [Tusita Palace]. That was just dumb luck. Sadly, it would end right now. I proclaim that everything within this place is now mine. Ha ha ha, I see that nine pill furnaces have been opened. You must have taken the treasures within it, right? Hand them over right now. My patience is limited," the young man said with a cold smile as he crossed his arms over his chest. He looked extremely confident and he said disdainfully, "After you hand over the treasures you have obtained, go ahead and commit suicide. I'll leave your bodies whole out of goodwill, otherwise… ha ha!"

As he spoke, the twenty or thirty men behind him quietly fanned out to seal all routes of escape.

Ye QIngyu and Hu Bugui were completely surrounded.
